Chapter 85: Repaying Kindness with Revenge - Hou Liangping

Chapter 85: Repaying Kindness with Revenge - Hou Liangping

After the New Year, the second day of the first lunar month.

Sister Qi Meiying brought her nephew and brother-in-law back to visit her parents' home. After learning about Qi Tongwei's actions, although she did not say anything, she still complained that Qi Tongwei did not need to take out 60 yuan.

This statement was agreed by his younger brother Qi Tongfu, who felt very distressed when he thought of the 60 yuan.

Wouldn't it be better to keep it for your own home?

Although almost everyone in Qijia Village has the surname Qi, they all have the same ancestor, and other people have helped their family, but they are not a family after all.

It would be good enough if he could find them a job. Giving 60 yuan to the village was really too much. He really couldn't understand it.

Qi Tongwei understands his family's thoughts very well. In their eyes, 60 yuan is an astronomical figure, and it is understandable that they are reluctant to part with it.

But he doesn't think so. It's just 60 yuan. He will earn it back a hundred or a thousand times in the future.

As a reborn person, I will never be short of money in this life.

If there is no desire for money, there will be no corruption problem.

His only weakness is the favors he owes to the villagers, which may affect him.

But now, I have compensated everyone financially, and the villagers will not be able to use favors as an excuse to get things done in the future.

I don't have to find ways to arrange people into government departments, nor do I have to worry about them doing evil things in my name and discrediting myself.

These thoughts flashed through his mind, Qi Tongwei sorted out his thoughts and said to everyone: "My family owes you a favor. Without them, I would not be able to go to college, and I would not be where I am today.

You said that finding jobs for everyone seems simple, but the cost is the highest.

If someone were to use my name to commit crimes, I wouldn't be able to explain myself even if I had ten thousand mouths. If things go wrong, I might end up losing my job."

"But 60 is too much?" said his younger brother Qi Tongfu.

"It's only 60 yuan, which is only part of my royalties. The publisher informed me that they need to print more copies, and I can earn back the mere 60 yuan very quickly."

"If you two don't understand, don't make trouble. Tongwei knows what's going on." Father Qi Wansheng interrupted.

After listening to Qi Tongwei's explanation and his father's words, the two felt a little better.

Seeing that his family was no longer concerned about the 60 yuan, Qi Tongwei took out two passbooks from his bag and gave one to his brother-in-law Zhang Yuheng and his younger brother Qi Tongfu.

"What is this?" Qi Tongfu asked excitedly. He guessed that this was the money his eldest brother gave to them.

"There are 20 yuan in each of these two cards. You and your brother-in-law can each get one and use it to do some small business."

This was Qi Tongwei's early plan. With this money, they can start a small business and take care of their parents nearby.

Once my family is settled, I can focus all my energy on work.

The biggest gain for Qi Tongwei this Spring Festival is that he has arranged things in the village and at home so that he can go into work with ease.

From now on, I will serve the people wholeheartedly and realize my dream of being half a step ahead of heaven.

In the next few days, Qi Tongwei did not go anywhere and stayed at home to accompany his parents and relatives.

He understood very well that as his status improved, he would have less and less time for himself, and fewer opportunities to spend the New Year with his parents.

No matter how reluctant we are, the holidays are here.

Qi Tongwei bid farewell to his family and returned to Dabeihu County in a special car.

The first thing I did after returning to the county was to visit Sister Zhao's house to wish her a happy new year and to visit sisters Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Xiaofeng.

After more than a year of recuperation, the two girls have undergone a great transformation. Their former skinny, thin and dark appearance is no longer seen, and they have acquired some of the elegance of later generations.

The two girls were very happy to see Qi Tongwei.

The two of them have always been thinking about Qi Tongwei. They know very well that if Qi Tongwei had not brought them out of the island in the middle of the lake, they might still be living a life of hunger and starvation.

Today, they have no worries about food and clothing and can go to school, which was something they could never have imagined in the past.

Knowing that their current life is not easy to come by, they study very hard, have skipped a grade and entered junior high school, and their grades are among the best.

"Sister Zhao, Happy New Year." Qi Tongwei put the gift on the coffee table, then took out two red envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Xiaofeng.

"Thank you, Brother Qi." After receiving the red envelope, Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Xiaofeng smiled happily.

Qi Tongwei smiled and touched their heads, then looked at Sister Zhao and asked with concern: "Sister Zhao, how are you feeling recently?"

Sister Zhao smiled and replied, "Not bad. Since I had these two little girls, my mood has improved a lot, and my health has also improved a lot."

"That's good." Qi Tongwei nodded with relief.

Seeing Qi Tongwei, sisters Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Xiaofeng were also in a very good mood.

Before the New Year, Qi Tongwei planned to take the two of them back to his home to celebrate the New Year. Later, considering that Sister Zhao was alone, he did not take them back.

Without the tragic experiences in later life, the two had very sunny personalities, but there were still some differences between the two sisters.

Gao Xiaoqin is strong. Although Gao Xiaofeng's character is not as tough as her sister's, she is not as soft as she was in her previous life. She may be a good helper to Gao Xiaoqin in the future.

During the Spring Festival, there was not much work, so Qi Tongwei focused on writing. He would occasionally go to Sister Zhao's house to spend time with the two girls, and of course, study economics.

At the same time, Gao Renfei's case has come to an end, with only the prosecution by the procuratorate and the verdict by the court remaining.

With the account books and the cash and antiques left at Qingquanshan Lake No. 1 in Yantai City, the chain of evidence is quite complete. Gao Renfei cannot deny it even if he wants to, and can only admit the fact that he is corrupt.

Once Gao Renfei admitted it, those who had offered bribes could no longer hide and the case was handled quickly.

Hou Liangping became very prominent in this case.

With Liang Qunfeng's support behind him, he was very tough when interrogating cases and solved many tough problems.

Liang Qunfeng was very satisfied with his performance and decided to promote him out of turn.

After receiving the news, Hou Liangping was in high spirits and very proud.

However, when he thought that Qi Tongwei was already a leader at the section level, he felt a little discouraged.

Therefore, these days, he went to see Li Jian almost every day, asking him to call the leaders of Yantai City without telling his father-in-law and transfer Qi Tongwei out of the public security team and even the political and legal system.

Hou Liangping was able to achieve such a great feat because the initial clues and key evidence were found by Qi Tongwei. It would have been fine if he had not been grateful, but instead he repaid his kindness with enmity.

From this we can see his character.

In fact, Li Jian didn't want to do this at all. He was not sure whether Liang Qunfeng would agree, but Hou Liangping was Secretary Liang's son-in-law and he couldn't afford to offend him.

After thinking it over, he finally decided to agree with Hou Liangping's opinion.

It just so happened that the mayor of Yantai City was about to retire, and Deputy Secretary Liu Jianyi had his eyes on the position of mayor and came to Liang Qunfeng to seek office.

Li Jian gave a slight hint and Liu Jianyi agreed. The two of them did not even consider whether Qi Tongwei agreed.

Yes, in the minds of these powerful people, Qi Tongwei is just a peasant. Whatever they say is what Qi Tongwei must execute unconditionally.

The behavior of the two men was no different from that of the great powers after World War I. The former made the decision for Qi Tongwei regardless of whether he agreed or not, and did not consider his feelings.

The latter also did not care whether the Republic of China agreed or not, and did not consider their feelings, and made the decision to hand over Thai province to Xiao Rizu on his own.
