Xiao Lili, Deputy Director of the Organization Department of the County Party Committee.
He was also my former boss, and concurrently the director of the Bureau of Veteran Affairs.
From now on, just call her Director Xiao when you see her.
Upon hearing that it was a leader visiting her in the hospital, Lin Qiufeng's furrowed brows relaxed.
She didn't know why she was nervous. She could tell at a glance that she was no match for him. Dawei was just a friend to her, but she was inexplicably nervous.
Lin Yunxing hissed and said, "I heard people say that in this unit, leaders who hold multiple positions are usually addressed with more grand titles."
The executive deputy county head should be addressed as "executive" or "deputy county head".
The deputy secretary who also serves as the deputy county head should be addressed as secretary.
She's both a vice minister and a bureau chief, shouldn't she be addressed as Minister Xiao?
David ate a freshly picked white sugar lychee. It wasn't fully ripe yet and had a slightly astringent taste, but he still looked pleased: "You seem to know quite a lot."
"I learned it on the spot. I overheard people in the next dorm chatting, and when I went to offer them cigarettes, one of their colleagues from the driver's team taught me."
David nodded in agreement: "The colleague who told you all this is a good person. You can get to know him better."
He's right.
But there are no absolutes.
When looking at a problem, we need to analyze it specifically based on the specific circumstances.
Old Shao, the head of the county's organization department, is nearing retirement age.
Old Shao is a bit arrogant. He's worked his whole life and only managed to get the position of deputy director, so he's not happy about it.
These kinds of people are most sensitive to things like position and rank.
If you call her Minister Xiao Lili, she'll worry that Lao Shao will overthink it.
She was afraid that Lao Shao would feel his position was being threatened, and that he would resent Xiao Lili and then make things difficult for her.
So, Xiao Lili told people to call her Director Xiao.
Xiao Lili is young and has a broad perspective. She doesn't mind being called "little" or "junior." Just call her Director Xiao.
"When Old Shao retires and she takes over, then you can call for Minister Xiao."
Lin Yunxing scratched his cheek, feeling dizzy from listening: "There are so many intricacies involved here."
Lin Qiufeng wasn't very happy and pouted, saying, "Alright, stop talking so much to Dawei as soon as you arrive. Talking too much will exhaust you. Go and get some tea."
He then tossed a packet of tea leaves to Lin Yunxing.
Lin Yunxing went to get hot water and make tea for Dawei.
There were only two people left in the ward.
Lin Qiufeng used her hands to smooth the sweat-dampened hair on Dawei's forehead: "You haven't showered yet, have you? Look how oily your hair is."
"I haven't washed it yet, and I can't wash my hair now. The doctor said I can't get it wet for the next two days, and I can only wash it after the wound has scabbed over."
"That must be so uncomfortable..." Lin Qiufeng looked around and said, "Do you have a handkerchief? I'll get some water and wipe you down so you can sleep better."
The people here need to bathe every single day of the year.
I feel uncomfortable if I don't shower for a day.
Dawei felt bad. Qiu Feng was still an unmarried woman; how could he ask her to do such a thing?
"No need, it's fine. You can be discharged in the next day or two."
"How can you sleep if you don't wash?"
"You'll naturally fall asleep when you're tired. When I was detained before, I didn't shower for a week, but I still made it through."
Lin Qiufeng was a little disappointed: "Anyway, I can't sleep if I don't wash."
"How did you get here so late?"
"I came on the village chief's tractor. He was just delivering lychees to the farmers' market. I heard you were injured and was worried about you, so I came to check on you."
Lin Qiufeng looked at the gauze on Dawei's head, her eyes immediately reddened, and she pursed her lips to suppress her tears.
Dawei felt a warmth in his heart and patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "I'm fine, don't worry about Sister Qiufeng... Village Chief, what time will you finish your work? Don't be late for your return."
"I just arrived, and you're already kicking me out?"
David chuckled sheepishly, "How could that be? I was just worried about bothering you. There are a bunch of chickens and ducks at home waiting for you to take care of them."
"He'll be here soon, and he'll stop by to see you before taking me back."
"It's just a minor injury, yet it bothered him."
"Dawei, I have something to ask you," Lin Qiufeng said earnestly.
"What's up?"
"Many people in the village have gone out to work, and a lot of land is idle. I want to rent some land to grow oranges. It's only 20 yuan a year for one-tenth of an acre, which is very cheap."
"That's great!"
"I saved some money from my previous job, but I'm afraid of losing it all. Do you think there's any chance of getting these oranges?"
David blinked, pondered for a moment, and realized he couldn't possibly guarantee that.
Yuanshan County is a major agricultural county.
Oranges, pomelos, and tobacco from the local area are all quite popular.
However, due to the lack of scale, sales are constrained by small vendors, and prices cannot be achieved.
In years with bad weather, the harvest will also be affected.
There are too many factors that affect agriculture.
"Sister, I've been thinking about the question you raised recently."
Once I have some free time, I plan to properly promote the navel oranges from our Yuanshan County.
Our loss lies in not having our own brand.
If it gets popular, we won't have to worry about making money.
Our village, Dashi Village, is located right next to Yuanshan County.
The mountains in the village are connected to the mountains in Yuanshan County.
The soil, water, and climate are exactly the same, so the fruits grown are also the same.
If the Yuanshan navel orange brand becomes well-known, our village will also benefit. The oranges can be shipped to Yuanshan County and sold out quickly.
Lin Qiufeng's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Seeing Dawei nod, she became even more excited: "Then I can rest assured."
If you want to do it, you can do it.
I'll go back and lease land, plant trees diligently, and wait for you to promote the brand.
Hehehe..."
Faced with Qiu Feng's trust, Dawei felt an even greater responsibility on his shoulders.
Lin Yunxing returned after brewing the tea.
People here like to drink tea, even in the evening. He poured Dawei a cup and lit a cigarette for him.
Before long, the village chief arrived, bringing Dawei a lot of fresh lychees, as well as eggs and other things prepared by the village chief's wife, who fawned over him.
It was getting late, so Lin Qiufeng went back to the village with the village chief, leaving Dawei and Lin Yunxing alone in the ward.
With no outsiders around, Dawei stopped pretending, sat up, and started showing off the lychees while smoking and drinking tea.
"Eat less of this, it's too heaty."
"Just drink some herbal tea if you get a sore throat." Dawei wanted to eat more and more. "Second brother, I can't get too close to you at work, don't blame me."
"Understood, Director Wu has already given instructions, it doesn't matter to us brothers."
"I'm glad you understand."
"Who did this to your head?"
David shook his head: "I don't know. Don't ask. Let's leave it to the police."
"List all the people who have doubts."
"Listen to me, ignore it, lie low, learn something, and stay in the compound."
Lin Yunxing took a puff of his cigarette in frustration.
David knows him too well; if he were to actually make a list, this guy might just go and chop someone up tonight.
Lin Lao Er himself was being bullied, and he might be able to tolerate it.
If anyone bullies someone he cares about, Lin Lao Er is willing to fight to the death.
