Chapter 620

~9 min read 1,642 words

As the New Year gets closer and closer, the atmosphere of the New Year in Meng Hu Ling is also getting stronger and stronger. In the past six months, Meng Hu Ling has opened several shops and inns, and the commercial atmosphere is getting better and better, looking much more prosperous than ordinary townships.

Because the New Year is coming, there are more and more trucks entering and leaving Meng Hu Ling, some are here to deliver goods to the shops here, and some are here to deliver goods from the enterprises here.

On this day, a truck drove to the gate of the township government and stopped. A girl got out of the cab, walked into the township government, and happened to meet Wan Xing'an. She asked carelessly: "Hey, may I ask if your Township Head Su is here?"

Wan Xing'an looked up and saw that this girl was quite beautiful. He muttered in his heart, why is there another beautiful girl coming to find Township Head Su? It's a pity that this girl doesn't know how to be polite, which is much worse than those girls before.

Although he was muttering in his heart, since this girl was looking for Su Xinghui, Wan Xing'an didn't dare to neglect. He walked to the door of Su Xinghui's office and shouted: "Township Head Su, someone is looking for you."

Su Xinghui looked up and saw that the girl had just walked to the door of his office. It turned out to be Sun Xuefei.

Su Xinghui frowned, why did she come?

To tell the truth, he didn't like the Sun Sinian family from the bottom of his heart. In this rebirth, he didn't want to have any close relationship with the Sun family. He also hated Sun Xuefei, his sister-in-law in his previous life. She learned to be snobbish, selfish, and profit-seeking from her mother, and she was also impolite and spoke without thinking.

Perhaps her only advantage was that she was beautiful, but for a girl without cultivation, no matter how beautiful she was, it was useless.

However, Sun Xuefei had already come, and Su Xinghui couldn't just drive her away. He could only stand up and say to Wan Xing'an: "Xing'an, you go get busy."

Wan Xing'an agreed and left. Su Xinghui said to Sun Xuefei: "Little Sun, why did you come?"

Su Xinghui said this in a businesslike manner, and there was even a sense of alienation that kept people thousands of miles away. However, Sun Xuefei didn't seem to hear it. She sat down on a chair familiarly and said to Su Xinghui: "Is there water? I'm thirsty."

Su Xinghui had no choice but to pour a cup of tea for Sun Xuefei. No matter how much he hated Sun Xuefei, the upbringing he received couldn't let him do anything too excessive. Being cold to Sun Xuefei was already his limit.

After all, in this life, Sun Xuefei was not the sister-in-law who had been very mean to him before.

Sun Xuefei took a sip of water and then said: "Isn't the New Year coming? There is a high demand for cigarettes in the township, and our Tobacco Bureau came down to deliver cigarettes. Today, I took the initiative to ask to come to this area of Meng Hu Ling."

Su Xinghui understood. She came to deliver cigarettes to several tobacco specialty stores in Meng Hu Ling. She came to Meng Hu Ling specifically, probably to find herself. Whether it was instructed by her father or her own intention, this was really a trouble. If she came often in the future, wouldn't he be annoyed to death?

He said to Sun Xuefei: "Oh, delivering cigarettes, then you go quickly."

Sun Xuefei said: "It's fine, I'll sit here for a while. Anyway, I'll go back in the afternoon."

Su Xinghui said: "Then you sit for a while, I'm going to the village."

Su Xinghui had already said this, so Sun Xuefei couldn't sit down anymore. She could only take another sip of water, then stood up and said: "Then forget it, I should go to work too."

Su Xinghui looked at her back and breathed a sigh of relief. However, Sun Xuefei walked to the door, turned her head and said: "Then I'll come to find you to play next Sunday."

After finishing, she smiled beautifully and left. She still looked quite good when she smiled, but Su Xinghui couldn't help but shiver. She still wanted to come? This is too troublesome.

Wan Xing'an came to Su Xinghui's office and asked in a low voice: "Township Head Su, is this your friend? She is quite beautiful."

Su Xinghui said: "Forget it, I don't have such a friend. Remember, Xing'an, if she comes to find me next time, you just say I'm not here, remember?"

Wan Xing'an was a little puzzled, but since Su Xinghui said so, he could only nod and agree, and then returned to the Party and Government Office.

Su Xinghui was worrying about Sun Xuefei's matter, and Wan Xing'an came over again. He said to Su Xinghui: "Township Head Su, your phone."

Su Xinghui went to answer the phone. It turned out to be a call from Qu Ziqing. He told Su Xinghui that the Provincial Art Academy was preparing to hold an art exhibition in March and asked Su Xinghui to send another work over. If this work could be selected for this art exhibition, he could formally apply to become a member of the Provincial Artists Association.

Su Xinghui knew that if his work was selected for this art exhibition this time, it would be the third time he was selected for an art exhibition hosted by the Provincial Art Academy, which would qualify him to become a member of the Provincial Artists Association. Once he was selected for the Provincial Artists Association, he would formally become a painter, and the value of his works in the country would also greatly increase in the future.

This was equivalent to a kind of recognition. In fact, after he became a member of the Artists Association, the level of his works would not suddenly improve, but it is like this in China. Even if your works are good, without this recognition, you will always be an amateur author, and your paintings will not sell for a high price.

Su Xinghui thanked Qu Ziqing. He said that he would go to Jiangcheng to pay a New Year call after the New Year, and he would bring a recent work with him then.

On January 30, it was a Sunday. On this day, Su Xinghui didn't go home either. He ran around several villages for a day and didn't return to the township government until after 4:00 in the afternoon.

As soon as he returned to the township government, Wan Xing'an told him that the girl who came to find him last time came again today. Wan Xing'an told her that Township Head Su was not here, and she waited here for a long time, waiting until after 2:00 in the afternoon before leaving.

Su Xinghui was very lucky when he heard this. Fortunately, he was in the village all day, otherwise, he would have been annoyed to death by Sun Xuefei all day.

Wan Xing'an said: "Township Head Su, I didn't tell her you have a pager, otherwise she would have paged you."

Su Xinghui nodded and said: "Xing'an, you did a good job on this matter, thank you!"

This matter made Su Xinghui seriously consider countermeasures. If Sun Xuefei kept pestering him like this, it would really be an annoying thing. He had to find a way to solve it. He knew Sun Xuefei's character. She was a person who would not stop until she reached her goal. If she really took a fancy to him, she would definitely not give up.

Thinking of this, Su Xinghui couldn't help but shake his head. Damn it, what is this all about? He was reborn once, and he was actually taken a fancy to by his sister-in-law in his previous life.

During the Spring Festival of this year, the Meng Hu Ling Township government still had a holiday on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month. On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, the township government distributed New Year benefits to every employee. This year's benefits were more than double that of last year, which made every employee happy. In the courtyard of the township government, the tempting fragrance floated again.

Early on the morning of the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, Yao Xuexin drove the township government's jeep and sent several employees of the township government whose homes were in the county back to the county, including Su Xinghui, of course.

Yao Xuexin sent Su Xinghui downstairs and helped Su Xinghui send those New Year goods to his home.

This year, his son distributed so many New Year goods, and Guo Suhua was, of course, overjoyed. This year, her unit had no benefits to distribute. After her husband became the deputy director, the benefits were okay, but they were not as many as what Su Xinghui brought back.

She looked through those New Year goods and said to Su Xinghui: "Xinghui, send some of these things to your sister's house later. Your sister and brother-in-law didn't get much this year."

Su Xinghui nodded and said: "I thought so too. I'll go now."

After sending the things to his brother-in-law's house, Su Xinghui returned home and unexpectedly saw the sisters Sun Xuefei and Sun Xuelan. They were sitting on the sofa at home, and Guo Suhua was sitting next to them, talking to them.

Seeing them, Su Xinghui felt his head grow a size larger. He said to them: "Why did you come?"
