Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 1875 Finally Recognized
"No need, uncles and grandpas, you are all so old, I have done what I should do..."

Faced with a group of simple and honest people, Qiu Haitang was at a loss as he had never experienced such a thing before.

After five or six years here, there is always something between Qiu Haitang and the common people.

Before yesterday, people only knew that Qiu Haitang was a female secretary, and no one even cared what she did or what she looked like.

Yesterday, there was a large-scale live broadcast. Even people living in the farthest place of Mingqian County took out their autumn crops to sell. In the past, they would carry their shoulders for dozens of kilometers to the county town or other counties to sell them, and the prices were very low.

The people got the money and no one was unhappy.

There is only one thing in the simple thought, that is, we cannot let others work for nothing, especially the girl who ate five buckets of instant noodles last night. Many people feel sorry for her.

Each family brought not much, but they had everything, including red beans, mung beans, kidney beans, peas, black beans, cornmeal, corn grits, millet, glutinous rice, radishes, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and some people even brought live chickens and ducks.

"You really are, how can you accept other people's things, how bad is that?"

The carriages of the three cars were all full. Qiu Haitang wiped away her tears and started her return journey amid the waves of the people.

"An honest official gets 100,000 silver coins a year, but when he leaves, his car is full of gifts, which makes the common people complain. The streets are filled with wealthy businessmen who give gifts, but only a few simple people give you gifts, which proves that you have not left the grassroots."

"If you hadn't put down your authority and fought for them in the live broadcast room this time, these grains might not be sold next year. The common people are very good at calculating and can tell who is good to them at a glance."

"Just for the three truckloads of stuff, I'll talk to Mr. Li next year and see if we can find some minerals here, and then build a provincial highway for you and add a few more lines. We won't eat their stuff for nothing."

After tidying up Qiu Haitang's hair, Ji Donglai directly uploaded the video. Hu Lijuan pouted, knowing that Ji Donglai would definitely do what he promised, and then she felt relieved.

Once this video was released, it ranked among the top ten in terms of traffic on the entire video platform. Countless young people were forwarding it, especially some of Qiu Haitang’s fans.

Now this group of people have formed themselves into a group, Begonia Pollen.

"Eighty percent of grassroots cadres, come here and see what it means to be a public servant. The hearts of the people are not blind."

"I once said I wanted to go to college and become a civil servant, and my mom gave me a big slap and told me not to let her get scolded. Just now, my mom watched this video and asked me, do you still want to become a civil servant? How many more years can I work here..."

"These things are worthless, but the friendship they carry is more valuable than gold!"

"Who said that grassroots cadres have become detached from the masses? We have seen it again today."

Qiu Haitang and Ji Donglai got on the highway and had an easy journey. When they got off at the Hebei Expressway exit, they found that the traffic police and highway inspections were very strict during holidays, especially for passenger and cargo vehicles.

The traffic police kept pointing at the various things in the trunk of the car and kept pestering him.

"what happened?"

Ji Donglai and Qiu Haitang just got out of the car to move around, while the traffic police were having a heated negotiation with Ran Bo and others. According to the regulations, this was not allowed.

"Sir, you absolutely cannot mix passengers and cargo... Are you Secretary Qiu?"

The traffic police accidentally saw Qiu Haitang and was stunned and screamed. Qiu Haitang was also stunned.

"Ah... hello, I'm Qiu Haitang, do you know me?"

Qiu Haitang was very surprised and tried hard to search for the memory in his mind.

"I know you, but you don't know me. Um... lift the barrier and let everyone pass. This team is free. This is Secretary Qiu Haitang's car. Hurry!"

Seeing Qiu Haitang, the traffic policeman quickly took off his mask and shook hands with Qiu Haitang cordially, his eyes full of admiration. When the toll collector heard that it was Qiu Haitang, he quickly raised all the poles and the convoy passed smoothly.

Several little fans ran over with their mobile phones to take pictures, and even several car owners passing by came to join in the fun, and collected several dolls alone.

"Goodbye, thank you!"

After waving to the traffic police and highway management, Qiu Haitang and Ji Donglai returned to the car. This time, the car was completely full and could not accommodate any more.

When they got home, Qiu Ranran came out and burst into laughter.

"Haitang, you guys are moving, hahaha...Second Uncle, come quickly, Haitang is going to live at home for a long time, and we are back from moving hahaha..."

Qiu Ranran called all her friends and all her family members came out. There was no need to shake hands, they all followed to move things.

"Wow, I haven't seen such a wide range of agricultural products in years. Even when I was crossing the grasslands back then, they weren't so abundant. Hahaha..."

Old Mr. Qiu was particularly happy today. He had watched the video of Qiu Haitang receiving gifts and the video of him eating instant noodles. When Qiu Haitang was broadcasting live, the old man's face was so gloomy that water could be squeezed out of it. But when he saw the video of people giving gifts, his face smiled like a flower.

I also heard Qiu Haitang talking about highway tolls on the road. Seeing so many people gathered around to take pictures, Mr. Qiu was even happier.

Over the years, the younger generations never dared to put dolls on grandpa’s sofa, but today it was piled up with them, and there were some things that no one knew what they were. The old man accepted them all, touching this and looking at that, and he felt so comfortable in his heart.

"You know what, this little thing is really fun to play with. Donglai, come to the table!"

Qiu Haitang has been doing this for so many years, and has been almost unknown. From a small secretary to a high-ranking county official, he has been doing the same thing over and over again.

There are no achievements at all. This time it was all thanks to Ji Donglai's platform support and various publicity.

It seemed like an ordinary incident, but insiders could see that it was carefully planned. Mr. Qiu personally invited Ji Donglai to the table for dinner, and the whole family was watching.

Young and old, including Qiu Yuzheng and his wife, were all behaving themselves at this time.

"Thank you grandpa!"

On the left are Qiu Yuzheng and his wife, on the right is Ji Donglai, and then there is Qiu Haitang. The whole family is so harmonious. Ji Donglai looked up inadvertently and saw the photo of Qiu Haitang swallowing noodles last night hanging opposite the sofa.

Ji Donglai quickly nudged Qiu Haitang with his elbow and pointed at him with his eyes.

"Grandpa, what are you doing? You look so ugly with your mouth so wide open. You're hanging me up so high. Take me down, take me down..."

Qiu Haitang pouted as she watched herself eat.

"You're not ugly. You ate like this when you were a kid. You could eat anything when you were happy. I haven't seen you so happy in years. Come and have dinner. Today is Donglai's first time to our house. You'll be a frequent visitor in the future."

“We also made noodles specially…”

Old Master Qiu was looking at Qiu Haitang, he was so happy. At this time, when Qiu Haitang heard that people were eating noodles at home, his stomach churned and he covered his mouth, unhappy.

"Haitang, this isn't for you. This is for Donglai. It's called leg-wrapped noodles!"

The old man personally served Ji Donglai a bowl of soup, and Qiu Haitang was relieved. Then she felt something was wrong and looked at the other people in the family. Everyone laughed.
