After being reborn, I have seven older sisters.

After exchanging a few words with Hongqin and Song Guangliang, Chunsheng stopped talking and hurried home.

When the two men saw that he didn't speak, they also fell silent instantly.

Chunsheng was worried the whole way that something might have happened to his third brother-in-law. He had several wild thoughts running through his mind about why his third brother-in-law hadn't gone to school that morning.

But as soon as he entered the house, he saw his third sister and brother-in-law sitting on a bench in the front yard chatting with his parents, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

To his surprise, Qin Yuanyuan, the female cadre temporarily assigned by the county organization department to the agricultural bureau, was also sitting there.

As soon as the third sister, Song Chunping, saw Chunsheng, she waved and smiled, "You're finally back! Did you get the report you wrote for your brother-in-law?"

"Take it!"

As Chunsheng spoke, he reached into his schoolbag and began searching.

After the third sister glanced at the letter of complaint, she immediately handed it to Qin Yuanyuan, who was standing next to her. "Officer Qin, could you please take a look at this and see if my brother wrote it?"

Qin Yuanyuan took the letter of complaint, glanced at it briefly, then looked up at Chunsheng and smiled, "Young man, your handwriting is quite good!"

Chunsheng smiled modestly, nodded, and said nothing.

Upon hearing the female leader from the county praise Chunsheng, his mother, Liu Yan'e, immediately revealed a smug smile.

Qin Yuanyuan carefully read every word of the complaint letter, and nodded in satisfaction after reading it all.

"The content is written in great detail and the expression is very clear. Is the signature above Feng Jinshuo's own?"

Chunsheng immediately replied, "Yes, it was my brother-in-law who signed it."

Qin Yuanyuan folded the letter of complaint and put it into her purse, then continued, "Your family should keep the matter of the letter of complaint a secret for now. Don't let too many people know about it, so as not to hinder our investigation."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yan'e quickly said earnestly, "Comrade Qin, don't worry. I already told my eldest daughter and son-in-law a few days ago to keep their mouths shut. They absolutely cannot reveal the whistleblower letter, otherwise this matter will not be resolved."

Looking at Liu Yan'e's expression, Qin Yuanyuan immediately smiled and said, "Auntie, you are so wise. It's absolutely right to make such a request of them."

"That's right, if this matter is leaked beforehand, although it won't necessarily affect the results of our investigation, it will definitely cause some considerable trouble for the progress of the investigation."

Liu Yan'e understood the meaning behind Qin Yuanyuan's words. She knew that resolving this matter would not be as simple as she had imagined.

But out of concern for her eldest daughter Song Chuntao's family, she asked the question anyway, even though she hadn't planned to.

"Comrade Qin, there's something I know that even if I ask, I doubt you can give me an answer right away, but please try to understand how I feel as a mother."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yuanyuan immediately smiled and said kindly, "Auntie, please feel free to ask me anything, don't be shy."

"As public servants, we are here to serve the people, so we will speak out about anything we know without reservation."

Liu Yan'e nodded gratefully and asked, "I just want to know, if this matter is to be resolved, approximately when will there be a result?"

Based on her years of experience working closely with the masses, Qin Yuanyuan had long anticipated that Liu Yan'e would ask about this matter.

So she pursed her lips, smiled and explained, "Auntie, actually I won't hide it from you. Today I came to Qinyuan Commune not only for a routine field visit, but also largely because of Feng Jinshuo's matter."

"Of course, there are other things being investigated as well, but it's not convenient to disclose them to the public. However, the fact that Feng Jinshuo's job was taken over is a key focus of my current work."

"So rest assured, I will get this done as soon as possible, and I will make sure you and Feng Jinshuo don't have to wait too long."

Chunsheng listened from the side and thought to himself that this Comrade Qin Yuanyuan was indeed worthy of being a leader, but after talking for so long, she still couldn't give a definite time point.

However, he also felt that it was unrealistic to give an exact timeframe for such a matter immediately.

When Chunsheng saw that his mother wanted to ask more questions, he immediately stopped her, saying, "Mom, don't worry too much about my brother-in-law's matter. Since Officer Qin has already said that he will handle it as soon as possible, let's just wait patiently."

"Besides, my brother-in-law's job was taken away two or three years ago, so we're not in a hurry to wait a few more days, don't you think?"

At this moment, Song Chunping also took her mother's arm and comforted her, "Mom, this can't be rushed. Comrade Qin also has his own procedures!"

Liu Yan'e quickly gave an embarrassed smile and said, "Yes, yes, I was too impatient. Let's just stay home and wait for the news."

Immediately afterwards, Liu Yan'e said to Song Chunping, "Quickly fetch some water so Comrade Qin can wash his hands and we can eat together."

Song Chunping hummed in agreement and was about to leave when Qin Yuanyuan grabbed her arm and said with a smile, "Auntie, Chunping, please don't be shy. We're on a field research trip and we're not allowed to eat at people's homes. I'll go to the commune now and see if the leaders there have returned yet!"

Liu Yan'e and Song Chunping quickly tried to stop them.

Liu Yan'e said with a troubled look, "The food is all ready, how can you leave without eating! You've come all this way to help us ordinary people solve our problems. If you leave without even eating a bowl of rice, people will laugh at us Songjiazhuang people for being unreasonable."

Qin Yuanyuan shook her head and smiled, "Auntie, I appreciate your kindness, but I really can't eat at your house, otherwise I'll make a mistake!"

Liu Yan'e was startled by what she heard and quickly glanced at Song Chunping and her son-in-law Gao Xiaocheng.

Gao Xiaocheng nodded to her and explained, "Mom, the county does indeed have this regulation!"

Then, Gao Xiaocheng looked at Qin Yuanyuan and joked, "But if we don't say anything, it should be fine, right?"

Gao Xiaocheng's words immediately amused Qin Yuanyuan, who laughed and said, "Brother Gao, that's absolutely unacceptable! That's just burying your head in the sand!"

Just as the group was laughing and arguing, two figures appeared at the gate.

Everyone quickly turned to look and saw that it was Zhang Junwu, with a stranger standing next to him.

Upon seeing Junwu, Chunsheng immediately greeted him with a smile, "Brother Junwu, what brings you here?"

Zhang Junwu laughed and said, "I've brought Secretary Liu from our commune to pick up the county leaders for dinner at the commune!"

At this moment, Secretary Liu, who was standing next to Junwu, immediately looked at Qin Yuanyuan and Song Chunping and asked somewhat awkwardly, "Excuse me, which one of you is Officer Qin?"

Qin Yuanyuan immediately nodded to the other person and smiled, "I am Qin Yuanyuan."

Secretary Liu immediately came forward, shook Qin Yuanyuan's hand, and said apologetically with a smile, "I'm sorry, we had some urgent business with our Party Secretary this morning and went to a village near the Qinling Mountains. We just got back. Our Party Secretary and several other leaders are already waiting for you at the commune. Shall we go there now?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yuanyuan paused slightly, then asked, "Are there many people?"
