Chapter 19: The Contest with the Old Branch Secretary
Su Baizhi folded the letter of introduction as it was, "It's better for you to keep it." ”
Su Banxia also felt that he had a good hold of it, and put it directly into the space, no one would want to find it!
"Banxia, such a dangerous thing, don't do it next time." Su Baizhi reached out and rubbed her hair, smiling a little reluctantly.
Su Banxia understood the guilt in Su Baizhi's heart, but she stole the letter of introduction for Su Baizhi, and Su Baizhi had no position to blame her.
She smiled and diverted the topic, "Aunt Xu came to the door today, it should have something to do with the old branch secretary." Su Banxia thought for a while, "Sister, when Guo Jianshe was at home, did he mention the old branch secretary to you?" ”
Guo Jianshe can't come back for a few days all year round, and the original owner is not impressed by Guo Jianjian.
But as far as the news she got in the past two days, Guo Jianshe is not simple.
Su Baizhi's face turned a little pale, and she said softly: "No." ”
Didn't get any useful information from Su Baizhi, Su Banxia stopped tempting, turned off the kerosene lamp, and the room was dark.
On the second day, after breakfast, the two sisters took some apples to the old branch secretary's house, and the old branch secretary was sitting in the courtyard smoking dry tobacco, and saw them reprimanding them with straight faces, "You sisters, bring the apples back when you go back." ”
Su Banxia smiled and put the apples on the table, "Uncle Li, the fruits are all from the mountains and are worthless." ”
When she didn't figure out what the old branch secretary wanted to do, it was impossible for Su Banxia to invest too much, and a kilogram of apples seemed just right to her.
The old branch secretary beckoned the two of them to sit down, and his eyes stayed on Su Banxia, "The Guo family was attacked by a snake, and now the family is basically lying down." ”
Su Banxia could naturally hear his temptation, "I heard Aunt Xu say it last night." She deliberately lowered her voice, "Aunt Xu also said that they offended Liu Xian. ”
The old branch secretary's face changed suddenly, "This old woman! The old branch secretary was secretly angry at Aunt Xu's imprudentness, "Don't spread this word to the outside world." ”
Su Banxia nodded again and again, "Don't worry, Uncle Li." ”
Su Banxia naturally knew the reason why the old branch secretary changed his face, if it was spread that his wife preached feudal superstition, his branch secretary would be the end.
The old branch secretary didn't speak, only smoked a dry cigarette, and only spoke after a while, "Bai Zhi, Jianjian spends the most time with you at home, has he ever mentioned my son to you?" ”
He sighed, "Our old Li family is just such a lone seedling." ”
Su Baizhi shook her head with a white face, "No, he rarely tells me this." ”
This is the second time.
It can be said that I was wrong last night, so today Su Banxia is 100% sure.
This Guo Jianshe will definitely not be the only person in the Guo family who is good to his sister in the memory of the original owner.
The old branch secretary sighed disappointed.
Su Banxia understood that his disappointment was not just that he didn't hear a little news about his son from others.
The old branch secretary was reluctant to say that he was at odds with the Guo family, so she simply explained her intentions, "Uncle Li, the election of the village chief is about to start, can the Guo family still win this year?" ”
She swore that when she led the snake to attack the Guo family, she really didn't think about the election!
The election of the village head depends entirely on the villagers, and she is very suspicious that the Guo family, who offended "Liu Xian", can still be re-elected?
Su Banxia sighed lightly, "It's not a secret, Uncle Li, Guo Jasmine came to the door the night before yesterday and said that she wanted a letter of introduction." ”
Her face was full of grievances, so that Su Baizhi couldn't help but look at her more.
"The Guo family is unfair." The old branch secretary shook his head slightly, "But I can't control the wishes of the villagers." ”
Su Banxia sneered in her heart, understanding that the old branch secretary was afraid of the Guo family and planned to let her come out.
