Reborn Leisurely Landlord

Chapter 43

When the school holiday came on Saturday, Su Qingdai urged Father Su to go to the city like burning his butt.

In addition to Zhang Qin's box of orphan books, Su Qingdai also packed some dried bracken, and the honeysuckle that Su Qingcheng and Su Qingye picked in the terraced fields on the mountain this week was also washed and dried by Su Qingdai.

Su Qingdai is going to take the honeysuckle to the medicinal material store in the city to sell it. If the price is right, then more medicinal materials will be grown in the terraced fields of Daqingshan in the future.

Su's father pushed the Phoenix brand weighted bicycle and tied Zhang Qin's big wooden box to the back seat of the car. Su Qingdai was carrying a big bag containing wild vegetables and honeysuckle.The father and daughter went to the town and took a car to the city in the early morning glow.

Neighbors saw it and stretched their heads to know what was in Father Su's box on the back seat, but they wanted to know but dared not ask.With so many people watching, who would speak up about a slap in the face?But they didn't dare to return, but those people still watched helplessly, as if they wanted to see through the thick wooden box.

The mountain road was difficult to walk, and Su's father could only walk slowly while pushing the bicycle.Although Su Qingdai was anxious, there was nothing she could do.That box of books is precious, how can it be bumpy?She was afraid that the books would be broken if she was not careful, so she could only let her father push them away slowly.

Qinghe Village is not good, because there is no cement road, and a rough dirt road passes through the mountain, not to mention the potholes, there are stones everywhere, it is very difficult to walk.Su Qingdai remembered that what she wanted most in her previous life was someone to allocate funds to repair a decent concrete road in Qinghe Village.In her last life, she had no money. In this life, when she earns money, she must find a way to repair the roads in the village.

After all, it was still too late. It was already eight o'clock in the town, and the bus had already left for more than half an hour.There is only one bus from Shaoxiang Township to the city every day. If they can't catch up, they won't be able to go to the city that day.Su Qingdai was in a hurry, but there was nothing she could do.

Su's father was also a little downcast. He ran out so early and still didn't catch up.I can only push it back, and turn it upside down a few times, and the book will suffer.

Su Qingdai showed the posture of hailing taxis on the street in her previous life, hailing any car she saw.Several large trucks were stopped, and they didn't stop. Finally, one car was stopped. There were already two people in the car, and no matter how crowded it was, there would be no room for two people, so we could only bring one.Su's father can't let Su Qingdai go to the city with confidence, and Su Qingdai can't let his stupid father go to the bank to deposit things, so let it go.

"Let's go back..." Father Su gave up hope, and was about to push the cart back.

"Dad, wait a minute!" Su Qingdai's sharp eyes saw a black car approaching in front of her. With the idea of ​​giving it a try, she rushed to the middle of the road and stopped the car with her hand.

The car slammed on the brakes and stopped in front of Su Qingdai, and the driver stuck his head out of the car window angrily, and scolded Su Qingdai: "Don't die, you dare to stop this car, you know whose car it is. ?!"

"Qing Lei—" Another man's voice came from the car, low and powerful.Hearing the voice of the man in the car, the furious driver immediately died down like a defeated rooster, and sat back in the car obediently.

The window of the back seat was slowly lowered, a middle-aged man looked at Su Qingdai, something seemed to flash in his eyes.Seeing the man's smile, Su Qingdai felt a little displeased, but couldn't explain why.

"Little friend, what are you doing to stop my car?" The man in the car asked in a low voice.

Su Qingdai didn't want to take that man's car, but she couldn't stop the car after waiting for more than an hour, so she had no choice.Looking up, she smiled innocently: "Uncle, we are going to visit relatives in the city, but we missed the bus. Can you give us a ride?"

The middle-aged man looked at Su Qingdai, smiled and said, "Okay, are you going to visit relatives in the city alone?"

Su Qingdai shook her head, pointing to Father Su who was standing not far away: "And my father."

The middle-aged man followed Su Qingdai's hand and saw Su's father looking towards him. He was too far away, so he could only see clearly that it was a rural man.He nodded, and told the driver to help get things.

Su's father locked the bicycle and left it in a grocery store in the town. The driver wanted to help him carry the boxes, but Su's father refused.Father Su cautiously followed the driver to the side of the car. When he saw the middle-aged man sitting in the car, Father Su's eyes widened and he looked at him warily.

Su Qingdai was puzzled, seeing that the middle-aged man in the car didn't seem to be unusual, so she didn't think much about it.Let my father put the box in the trunk of the car, and get into the back seat with my bag in my arms.

The driver folded his hands and put the box into the compartment, and said casually, "Hey! This box is really heavy! What's in it?"

Father Su became nervous when he heard this.Subconsciously looking into the car, he was relieved to see that there was nothing unusual about the person in the car.It's just that his whole body was still stiff, and his face was a little flustered.

"It's nothing, the things grown in the village are all worthless things."

Father Su's voice was a little weak, but the driver didn't care, but the middle-aged man in the car opened his eyes and stared at Father Su for a few times.

Su Qingdai noticed the strangeness of Su's father, seeing him sitting in the car with a look of distraction, always looking back nervously to check the things in the box.

Su Qingdai frowned subconsciously, her father was obviously not like this when she was at home, why did she panic like this now?This can't be done, isn't his sneaky look more suspicious?

"Dad, what's the matter?" Su Qingdai leaned into Father Su's ear and asked softly.

Father Su's eyes flickered, and he shook his head to express that it was nothing.It's a pity that his eyes betrayed him. Su Qingdai felt that something was wrong, but she had no choice but to give up.But being made a fuss by Su's father, she also became nervous.

The middle-aged man kept his eyes closed and did not speak. Su's father was nervously clutching his sleeves, and Su Qingdai was looking around in a fair manner.The car sped along the road and soon left the town.

In a strange atmosphere, Su Qingdai and Su's father managed to make it to the city.The two got out of the car impatiently.The driver wanted to help Su's father carry the box down, but this time, Su's father refused no matter what and insisted on taking it down by himself.

The driver had no choice but to give up.There was just a hint of disdain in his eyes.What a country bumpkin, what treasure can you have in that box?So careful not to even touch it!
But the driver didn't know that the single copy in the box was worth a lot, so it was normal for Su's father to be nervous.If he knew, he would definitely be stunned.

Su Qingdai followed Su's father out of the car and walked towards the bank. The man in the car opened his eyes and looked at the backs of the two with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Political Commissar, what's wrong with you?"

"Qing Lei, follow those two people!"

At the same time, Su Qingdai was also inquiring. The person being questioned had flickering words and erratic eyes. Su Qingdai was a little angry when she saw her father's uneasy look.

"You're telling me, people who hide like this think we've done something shameful! You're so nervous, the people in the car think we're doing something..."

"What do you do?" Father Su asked back.

"Your box doesn't allow anyone to help, and others think you have stolen goods hidden in that box!" Su Qingdai replied angrily.

Su's father was taken aback, and replied hesitantly: "I'm not...not...it's that person..."

Su Qingdai naturally saw that there was something wrong with the person in the car, but it was hard to tell in the car.

"There's something wrong with the people in the car." Su Qingdai said in an affirmative tone, but she didn't know her, so she could only turn around and ask Father Su, "Dad, do you know that person?"

Su's father was taken aback, knowing that he couldn't hide it from his daughter, he sighed and turned to look at Su Qingdai steadfastly.

"That person's name is Zhao Tianhua, the son of our county magistrate, and now the political commissar of Huaiyang City."

Su Qingdai was puzzled, how could Su's father, a farmer, take care of those officials?This is not in line with Su's father's habit of keeping his ears to the outside world and only doing farm work.

Suddenly, a thought flashed across her mind, as if she had thought of something.

"Dad, you mean—damn it! How could it be him!"
