Chapter 141

Cheng Taoxian said with a crying voice: "I don't know what happened. Today, Weiwei slept until the middle of the night and suddenly started making a fuss, crying and making trouble. I touched his head, and it was burning hot, and his face was flushed red. I didn't know what to do alone, so I only came to knock on your door."

Su Xinghui didn't ask anything else. He came to Cheng Taoxian's room and saw her son, Luo Wei, crying on the bed with a flushed face. He quickly wrapped Luo Wei in a small quilt and rushed out while holding him, while urging Cheng Taoxian to bring some clothes and quilts behind.

Wan Xing'an also came out. He ran downstairs and called Sister Huang, asking her to open the iron gate of the township government. Su Xinghui ran quickly to the township health center.

The doctor on duty at the health center at night was a female doctor. After being called up by Su Xinghui, she was a bit impatient. This was easy to understand; anyone called up in the middle of the night would be a bit impatient. However, as soon as she saw it was Director Su of the township government, she immediately became enthusiastic and examined Luo Wei.

At this time, the township health center had no advanced equipment, and even if it did, it couldn't be used in the middle of the night. Fortunately, this female doctor was nearly 50 years old and had rich experience. She measured Luo Wei's body temperature, which was 38.5 degrees, asked Cheng Taoxian some questions, and used a cotton swab to press Luo Wei's tongue to look.

Luo Wei's tonsils were red and swollen. The female doctor diagnosed it as tonsillitis caused by a cold. She prescribed medicine for him. While Su Xinghui went to get the medicine, she personally called the nurse on duty to give little Luo Wei an injection.

The service attitude of hospitals in these years was not necessarily good, but the female doctor called the nurse and said it was a leader of the township government, so the nurse didn't dare to give a face, and honestly gave Luo Wei an IV drip, and it was a one-shot success, without letting the son suffer a second time.

Only then did the female doctor smile at Cheng Taoxian: "Little Cheng, don't be too anxious. The problem shouldn't be big. It will be fine after two days of injections. This is a cold caused by the change of seasons. Just pay attention to taking care of the child in the future."

Cheng Taoxian, who had been out of her mind, came back to her senses at this time. She thanked the female doctor gratefully: "Doctor, thank you. Then you go back to rest."

The female doctor said: "Then I'll go to rest. If there is anything, let the nurse find me."

The female doctor went to sleep. Only Su Xinghui, Cheng Taoxian, and Wan Xing'an were left in the injection room. Su Xinghui held Luo Wei horizontally so that he could be more comfortable getting the injection. Now Luo Wei had fallen asleep again.

Cheng Taoxian said apologetically to Su Xinghui: "Come, let me hold Weiwei."

Su Xinghui shook his head: "No need, I'll hold him. If I give him to you, don't wake him up again."

Cheng Taoxian thought what he said made sense, so she nodded and agreed. To be honest, as a weak woman, if she had been holding Weiwei all the time, she couldn't stand it. Weiwei was already over two and a half years old and weighed more than 30 jin, which was quite heavy.

Cheng Taoxian said to Wan Xing'an again: "Little Wan, thank you!"

Wan Xing'an said: "Sister Cheng, don't be polite. Helping each other is what we should do. We are fine, but for a woman like you to bring a child alone, it is really too hard."

Wan Xing'an's words almost made Cheng Taoxian cry. Just now in the middle of the night, when Weiwei made a fuss, she was really out of her mind and didn't know what to do. She could only find Su Xinghui, who helped her the most.

Su Xinghui remembered that in his previous life, about a year or two later, Cheng Taoxian's husband transferred back. It should be because Cheng Taoxian was too tired to bring a child alone, so he made a sacrifice. Because he had participated in the self-defense counterattack, read military school, and was promoted, he should have had a bright future.

Su Xinghui asked: "Sister Cheng, why don't you just let Brother Luo transfer back? Otherwise, it's not a thing for you to bring Weiwei alone."

Cheng Taoxian lowered her head and said after a long while: "That depends on whether he is willing to come back himself."

Su Xinghui couldn't say too much about this kind of thing, so he nodded and took care of the child attentively.

Wan Xing'an was quite sleepy. He sat on the chair and fell asleep with snoring sounds unconsciously. Cheng Taoxian happened to bring an extra blanket, so she went over and gently covered him with the blanket.

When Cheng Taoxian sat back beside Su Xinghui, she hesitated for a moment and said softly: "You should be careful with that Peng Kehong. He has been saying bad things about you everywhere these days."

Su Xinghui smiled lightly and said: "I know, thank you!"

Luo Wei had a total of three IV drips, which took nearly two hours. After finishing, Su Xinghui still held him back to the township government and put him on Cheng Taoxian's bed, before returning to his room. It was already nearly 4:00 AM.

Wan Xing'an fell asleep as soon as he lay on the bed, but Su Xinghui couldn't sleep at this time. He was thinking about what happened in the past few days.

Su Xinghui was not afraid of the small actions of Peng Kehong and Luo Ming'an, but it was too annoying.

Yesterday, Shan Xiaolong went to Bamboo Gully Village, which was obviously instigated by these two guys. Otherwise, how could Shan Xiaolong know that there was wild game there? From this point of view, Jin Taihe should also have established a relationship with Shan Guozhi.

He didn't regret yesterday's matter at all. Since he met Shan Xiaolong, he couldn't do things that violated his principles to cater to Shan Xiaolong, so he was bound to have a conflict with him.

Even if he didn't have a conflict with him now, based on some of the things Shan Xiaolong did, Su Xinghui would definitely have a conflict with him in the future. This was an irreconcilable contradiction. Su Xinghui wanted to build Shangjun County well, so he would definitely harm Shan Xiaolong's interests, because Shan Xiaolong's interests were obtained by harming the interests of the people of Shangjun County.

Since there would always be a conflict, it was better to have a conflict early than late. However, after the conflict, Su Xinghui also had to think about Shan Xiaolong's possible retaliation or follow-up moves.

Shan Xiaolong was a person who would take revenge for the smallest grievance, and he was so arrogant that it was impossible for him not to retaliate. He wanted to retaliate against himself and against Zhugou Village. In addition, he seemed to have some improper thoughts about Xia Lan and Xia Zhu. So, Su Xinghui had some clues about his possible means of retaliation.

Of course, no matter how Shan Xiaolong retaliated, Su Xinghui wouldn't be afraid of him. Let the soldiers come and block, let the water come and cover. It was just that Peng Kehong and Luo Ming'an were too disgusting. When they fell into his hands, he must make them look good.

On October 25, the bidding meeting for the secondary highway from Shangjun County seat to Menghuling Township was held in the conference room of the county government. Seven or eight construction companies in Shangjun County participated in this bidding and submitted bidding documents to the county government.

Haimin Construction Company and Hongye Construction Company naturally participated in this bidding. The process of the bidding meeting was very serious. On the day of the bidding meeting, several county magistrates of the county government were present, and the Provincial Transportation Department also sent several experts to supervise the bid opening process on the spot.

The final result made the people of Shangjun County drop their jaws. Hongye Construction Company, which was thought to be able to win this project, didn't even enter the top three. Considering the conditions of these construction companies in all aspects, Haimin Construction Company finally became the winner.

Actually, Haimin Construction Company's bid was not the lowest. The cost they gave was 5.9 million, while Hongye Construction's cost was 5.7 million. However, considering the bidding documents of each company and all aspects, the county government and the experts from the Transportation Department finally selected Haimin Construction.

After the bidding result came out, Qian Hongye made a scene at the bidding meeting on the spot, saying that there were tricks in the bidding process. Why was the winner not them, who had the lowest bid, but Haimin Construction Company, which was 200,000 higher than them?

However, his scene had no effect. This bidding process was conducted under the supervision of experts from the Transportation Department, and there were notaries on the spot, which could be described as open, fair, and just. If he had to blame someone, he could only blame his Hongye Company for not having enough technical strength, and having a criminal record of quality problems in some projects built in the past.

Seeing that Qian Hongye was making a scene too unreasonably, Xu Shixie stood up personally and scolded him angrily: "Qian Hongye, what are you making a scene about? This bidding was conducted under the supervision of the leaders and experts of the Transportation Department. What tricks are there? If you make a scene again, I will let the Public Security Bureau arrest you!"

Qian Hongye was still very afraid of his brother-in-law. He actually already knew that his hope for this bidding was not great, and he could only make a fuss about the bid. Since he couldn't win the bid even with such a low bid, there was really no way. He made such a scene just to vent his anger.

Now seeing his brother-in-law losing his temper, he left the venue. However, before leaving, he still glared at Xu Haimin fiercely.

Xu Haimin didn't care about Qian Hongye's unhappiness. Since he participated in this bidding, he wouldn't be afraid of Qian Hongye. He had been in construction for so many years and had seen everything, red or black, so he was not a person who was afraid of things.

He didn't take the initiative to cause trouble when there was nothing to do, and he wasn't afraid of trouble when it came. This was his life creed. ===== CHAPTER 143 =====
