At night, the elders and a few relatives in the village drank like crazy again. The next morning, the secretary of the W County Party Committee, Wu Yong, and the county head, Wang Lin, came to visit Long Hui. No matter how the outside world evaluated it, whether it was the political or military world, they all knew that Long Hui's punishment this time was just to shut the mouth of the outside world. Sooner or later, he would ascend to a high position. It would be very helpful for his political future to build a good relationship with the future political stars in the territory under his jurisdiction.
"General Long, please forgive me for disturbing you today.”Wu Yong held the young general's hands with both hands and kept on being polite, as if he was deeply afraid that Long Hui would chase him out.
"What are you talking about? I should be the one visiting my parents.”Long Hui knew that politeness was inevitable in the officialdom. Everyone didn't care, but if you didn't use politeness, you might offend people unknowingly.
"It's really better to see than to hear. Rumor has it that General Long is young and promising, and it's true today. Sigh, it seems that we're all old.”Wang Lin revealed an old expression.
"You flatter me, County Head Wang. Please sit down.”
The family members of Long Hui, who were usually only watched on TV, were not used to seeing the two of them. They were flattered.
"Hello, uncle." Wu Yong could only greet his father as a junior due to Long Hui's status,"You see, it's all because we didn't do our job properly. We haven't come to visit you for such a long time. Please forgive us."
"I wouldn't dare. You're busy with work." Long Hui's father stuttered,"You can just call me Long Wendong. We're about the same age. If you call me uncle, wouldn't it shorten my lifespan?"”
" Of course, of course. I don't dare to act rashly with General Long here." Wu Yong smiled without any embarrassment.
" That won't do." Long Wendong insisted and looked at Long Hui.
"How about this, let's talk about our own things.”Long Hui knew his father's temper and came out to help.
"Well, alright, then I'll be bold enough to call you elder brother.”Wu Yong looked a little embarrassed, then grabbed Long Wendong's hand," Big Brother, haha!"
" Hey, I'll pour you some tea." Long Wendong was still a little flattered. He still felt quite honored that the county secretary called him big brother.
" You're welcome. Big brother, let's just sit down and chat." Wu Yong and Wang Lin quickly pulled him down.
" How can that work?" Long Wendong couldn't resist." Damn it, make a few cups of tea."”
After a polite chat, Long Wendong began to talk about the rural people and the fields with the two of them. Seeing that it was almost noon, Long Wendong asked his wife to prepare lunch. Wu Yong and Wang Lin were polite for a long time before saying,"Sorry to disturb you."
When Long Hui saw these two officials, he remembered his cousin's job. It was better to be a county magistrate than to be in charge of it now, so he could use this opportunity to say," Dad, go to Uncle's house and ask my brother to come over for dinner.”
Although Long Wendong didn't know why Long Jun had to come with him, he still agreed and went out. Before he went out, he said to Long Hui,"You weren't at home these few years. It's all thanks to your brother.”
"I know." Long Hui smiled apologetically.
"Why does General Long have an older brother?”Wang Lin was a bit surprised. He didn't know that Long Hui had an older brother. He also looked at Wu Yong with confusion.
"Ah, it's my cousin. It's all thanks to him taking care of my parents these past few years. It's been hard on him. His job isn't doing well and he can't earn much money, but he still has to take care of my family for me.”
"I wonder where your cousin works now?”Wu Yong asked with concern.
"It's in our county. It used to be in the Material Bureau, but the Material Bureau was abolished.”Long Hui shook his head.
"Oh." Wu Yong and Wang Lin looked at each other. They both remembered that this was a chance to get closer to this general.
Long Hui knew that his casual words would make his parents understand. Some things were easier to handle without being explained. Besides, he was not being biased. Originally, the Material Bureau had revoked his cousin and he should have been reassigned. It was just that the places they were assigned to were different for those who were related and those who were not. Those who were not related were called banished.
During dinner, Wu Yong and Wang Lin pretended to casually ask about the Dragon Army. Long Jun looked at Long Hui, who was smiling and not saying anything, and understood what he meant. He felt refreshed and pulled the two officials to drink a few more cups. In the past, he wouldn't even be able to find the village head with his own wine, let alone the county secretary.
