Chapter 339 All acquaintances
Hearing what the aunt said, the grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and He Shiwu asked again, "Do you know what the girl's name is?"
"I was far away and didn't hear clearly. I just heard others say that some big leader had praised him. No wonder he's so powerful. Commander, do you know him?"
He Shiwu laughed and said, "You'll know in a moment."
Then he said to He Linfeng, "No doubt. She must have been offended. The Ning family, except for Old Ning, the two old and young ones are all bad, and they will definitely bear a grudge. So, you go to the Shen family with gifts and say you are here to take her over for dinner. Be public about it, so that some people won't be blind and cause trouble for her."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
When He Shiwu was demoted, the Shen family also provided some help, but others didn't know about it.
After returning to Beijing, the two families deliberately avoided suspicion and had little contact with each other overtly, mainly because they were worried that they would be too prominent and arouse suspicion from their superiors.
The He family is different from big families like the Shen family. Not counting the side branches, the direct line has been a single-line family for three generations.
He Linfeng could definitely be said to be the true heir, so when he went to the Shen family carrying a large pile of valuables, many people were secretly guessing what was going on.
Soon, they had the answer...
When He Linfeng arrived, Shen Qianzhong had just come downstairs.
Shen Zhiqiang had mentioned the He family to him before, and he wasn't too surprised. He just didn't expect that the other party would come so early.
Then he understood the He family's intentions, and felt that this girl really impressed people again and again. Compared with his own children, they were really not up to par...
He Qianzhong did not refuse those gifts, but when he left, he gave him gifts of almost equal value in exchange.
This was also something the two companies had discussed privately. Since the situation was unstable, they should be low-key and keep their distance to the outside world to avoid being too big and easily becoming a target.
Gu Mingyue stood up and said, "Let's save the hot pot for tomorrow night. Alas, I'm too busy with work. Don't miss me too much. You don't have to save any food for me."
Shen Qianzhong laughed and scolded, "Who cares about you? Go quickly and eat less. Don't let people think that I treat you unfairly."
Gu Mingyue replied without any guilt, "That can't happen. I've always had a small appetite."
After thinking about it, I decided to go upstairs and take Guanglei and Xingfu with me, just as if I were going out to see the world. I also took a bag and put a jar of tiger bone wine in it.
Fortunately, the bottles were all packed in small jars, otherwise it would be painful to give away so many at once...
While walking on the road, I found that the courtyard that was empty just now suddenly had more people coming and going, and I could feel the subtle scrutiny from time to time.
Gu Mingyue asked in a low voice, "Won't your making such a big fuss have an impact on your family?"
He Linfeng explained, "It's okay. The educated youth who went to the countryside accidentally met the village party secretary who took good care of him, so he specially invited him to his home. This is not something shameful."
"Sure, that's very thoughtful."
He Linfeng suddenly said, "However, Secretary, your plan may fail."
"Ah? What?" Gu Mingyue felt that something bad was going to happen when she saw his gloating look.
He Linfeng pointed at the figure running in front and said, "You became famous after this battle. These people are like cats that smelled blood. You can't hide even if you want to."
Gu Mingyue looked up and saw Zeng Min, Wu Meiqi and Wu Shengli, and Gao Shan all rushed over and started talking to her non-stop.
Zeng Min: "Secretary, why didn't you inform me of your coming? That's really not nice of you!"
Wu Shengli: "Yes, Secretary, we treated you with sincerity, but you are so good that you hide from us when you come."
Gao Shan: "If I hadn't heard everyone talking about it and thought it sounded familiar, I would have asked you about it, you would have gotten away with it."
Wu Meiqi: "Secretary, I miss you so much..."
Gu Mingyue only felt the chirping in her ears, as if she had fallen into a bird's nest. She raised her voice helplessly, "Stop! Be quiet and listen to me! I just arrived too. The reason is to send Xingfu to school. I didn't disturb you because I thought you were busy with school. Besides, I had a lot of things to do at home, so I couldn't stay for a few days and had to go back, so I didn't say hello."
Wu Shengli secretly muttered, "Secretary, we have been in the village for so long, and we haven't seen you busy with any serious work. Why do you say you are busy when you see us? I think you just don't want to see us."
Gu Mingyue glared, "How come I'm not busy with work? I'm just... just responsible for coordinating the overall situation. Also, I found that some people are different when they return to their own territory. They dare to tease me in person, right!"
Wu Shengli laughed and said, "I dare not, I dare not. You have achieved great success since you came here. I'd better not show off my little tricks."
Gu Mingyue held her head with her hand and said, "This incident was also an accident. It was a coincidence. I didn't think much of it. But the other party kept pestering me. I had no choice but to stick with him. But you guys are really well-informed. You knew everything in less than half a day."
Zeng Min immediately confessed, "Gao Shan was the first to know about it, and then he called us..." At this point, she snorted at He Linfeng, "You traitor!"
"You really can't blame me. It was the secretary who told me not to say anything. How could I dare to disobey her?"
Gu Mingyue was speechless. This person was really...
Then he looked at Gao Shan. He was wearing a leather jacket on the upper body, jeans on the lower body, and a maroon turtleneck sweater underneath. He looked handsome and elegant.
The experiences of these years have made his temperament more stable.
However, the other party's eyes looking at her did not change. Gu Mingyue pretended not to know and simply nodded, saying to everyone, "You are different this time when you return to the city. You are all handsome men and beautiful women. If I meet you on the street, I won't recognize you. How is it, have you completed the admission procedures?"
Gao Shan's eyes dimmed. After he finished the call, he went home to change his clothes while waiting for someone. He wanted to meet the other person in the best possible image. He thought that even if the other party would not look at him differently, at least his eyes would be brightened.
But no, they are all the same, the same normal look he gives to everyone.
While they were talking, a family of three came over and shouted, "Benefactor, is it really you?!"
Gu Mingyue looked in the direction of the voice and asked, "Who are you?"
The young woman holding the child hurriedly approached and said, "Don't you recognize me? My son and I were almost kidnapped by human traffickers on the train. It was you who stood up for me and I escaped. I never thought I would see you again."
Gu Mingyue thought about it and said politely, "It's just a small favor. Besides, I have received your money, so this matter is over."
"No, benefactor, the money is only part of my gratitude. If my husband had not been transferred and could not leave home, I would have visited you in person a long time ago."
At this time, the male comrade next to me took the initiative to greet him, "Hello, I am Zhao Ying's husband Qi Yuanchao. I have always wanted to thank you in person, but my work is special and I can't get away. For this reason, Yingying has complained to me a lot. Just now, I heard someone with the same name in the compound. I was pulled to confirm it before I finished my meal. Fortunately, I made it in time! Comrade Gu, please allow me to thank you formally here."
After saying that, Qi Yuanchao stood at attention and saluted!
