Chapter 4045: Meeting Qi Jian Again

These town cadres were almost all older than Su Xinghui, but their levels were too much lower than Su Xinghui's. One by one, they were very respectful in front of Su Xinghui.

They also knew that the foundation of Meng Hu Ling was almost laid by the young mayor in front of them. Until now, they were enjoying the foundation laid by Su Xinghui. From this aspect, they should also thank Su Xinghui.

Chen Xinhua said, "Mayor Su, let's go to the town to sit."

Fang Youcai was in a hurry when he heard it. He said, "Chen Shuji, this won't do. Mayor Su hasn't been here for so many years. He must eat in our village today and cannot go to the town."

Su Xinghui also smiled slightly and said, "Chen Shuji, I will stay in the village for a while and have to leave after eating."

Fang Youcai said, "Mayor Su, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Stay in the village for one night tonight. Eat lunch, and drink a few cups at night. There are many people in the village who want to invite you to dinner. Stay at my house at night. My house has a special guest room. I will let you use the new bedding for my grandson's wedding."

Su Xinghui said, "Secretary Fang, let's talk about it later."

Other villagers also enthusiastically retained Su Xinghui, saying nothing to let them go. Su Xinghui was also moved in his heart.

Yu Ruizhi had been following by the side. Seeing this scene, he also nodded slightly. Su Xinghui had lived up to his life by being an official to this point.

Although Chen Xinhua was the town party secretary, he didn't dare to offend Fang Youcai. Fang Youcai was the old secretary. The foundation of Yezhugou was built by him. Now Yezhugou had also merged with several surrounding villages and was the largest village in Meng Hu Ling, and also the richest village in Hudong Province. The provincial party secretary and governor had been to Yezhugou Village several times. He also had many friends who were officials in the province and city.

Chen Xinhua could only say to Su Xinghui, "Mayor Su, don't call me Chen Shuji anymore, just call my name. Then I will call Secretary Qi."

Hearing the title "Secretary Qi," Su Xinghui's heart moved and said, "Oh, Secretary Qi is?"

Chen Xinhua said, "He is our current Shangxian City Fang Zhishu and Yulin City Party Committee Standing Committee member Qi Jian. He is also your old colleague. He heard that you came to Meng Hu Ling and immediately dropped everything in his hands and wanted to come to Meng Hu Ling. He is almost here."

Su Xinghui then understood that Secretary Qi was Qi Jian, his partner when he was the town mayor of Pengjiawanzhen. The then Pengjiawanzhen Fang Zhishu had now become the Shangxian City Fang Zhishu and concurrently a Standing Committee member of the Yulin City Party Committee.

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "So it is Comrade Qi Jian. We haven't seen each other for many years, and I really miss him. Well, Chen Shuji, you call Comrade Qi Jian and ask him to come to Yezhugou."

Chen Xinhua said, "Mayor Su, don't call me Chen Shuji, just call my name. Then I will call Secretary Qi."

Su Xinghui nodded and took the lead in walking toward the village committee, waiting for Qi Jian's arrival. Since Qi Jian was coming, meeting him in the Eucommia forest would be a bit inappropriate.

Chen Xinhua called Qi Jian, ran small steps, followed Su Xinghui's footsteps, and said, "Mayor Su, Secretary Qi will be here soon."

Su Xinghui nodded, quickened his pace, and everyone entered the village committee together, waiting for Qi Jian's arrival.

After a few minutes, several cars drove into the village and arrived at the entrance of the village committee. Su Xinghui stood up and walked outside the village committee. He saw Qi Jian get out of a car, walked a few steps quickly, met Su Xinghui, and said, "Mayor Su, you are truly a rare guest! Welcome, welcome!"

Su Xinghui shook hands with Qi Jian, shook it a few times, and said with a smile, "Secretary Qi, our two old partners haven't seen each other for so many years, and I really miss you."

Qi Jian said, "I also miss you very much! Mayor Su, look at you, you are still as elegant as ever after so many years, but I am old."

Su Xinghui looked him up and down. Qi Jian was also almost fifty years old this year, but he looked relatively young, not as exaggerated as he said.

Su Xinghui said with a smile, "Secretary Qi, you are too exaggerated. Where are you old? You look like a forty-year-old man, in your prime."

Qi Jian said, "Haha, Mayor Su is still so good at talking. Today we must drink a few cups!"

Su Xinghui shook his head and said, "Secretary Qi, I'm really sorry, I can't drink for the time being. We can use water instead of wine and drink a few cups."

Qi Jian was a bit astonished, but he reacted immediately. He nodded and said, "That's fine, using water instead of wine is also quite good."
