Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

According to Li Dong, Song Ci came from a scholarly family.

Song Ci's father was a teacher at Handong University.

Song Ci's elder sister works at the Public Security Bureau of Handong Province and is also a police officer.

Judging from Song Ci's temperament, what Li Dong said should be true.

If they were not from a scholarly family, they probably would not have been able to raise a girl like Song Ci who is well-behaved, sensible, well-educated, and graceful.

Li Zhihua was still very satisfied with Song Ci.

Whether it is personality and temperament, or how he treats people, he is excellent in every aspect!

It is definitely too high to match the Li family's door lintel.

Moreover, being able to be with Li Dong is definitely an active act of climbing up the social ladder.

However, even though it was the first time he met Song Ci's elder sister, Li Zhihua vaguely sensed something unusual.

According to Li Dong, Song Ci's elder sister works in a provincial department, and is a civil servant.

As for what the specific position was, the elder sister never said, and Li Dong never asked.

Moreover, the Li family is not interested in these things.

After all, Li Dong and Song Ci didn't get together to climb up the social ladder.

Therefore, no matter what position Song Ci's elder sister holds, it does not affect the marital status between the two.

According to his initial judgment, Li Zhihua also thought that Song Ci's elder sister was just an ordinary civil servant.

But now it seems that it is obviously not the case!

Tang Shi's dress is not very ostentatious, but it is very delicate, low-key and decent.

A dark grey dress, not the common printed style seen in shopping malls, nor does it look like it’s from a luxury brand.

But the fabric looks straight and not stiff, it drapes very well, and there is not even a wrinkle on the hem.

Low-key, yet textured.

Obviously, this dress is not going to be cheap.

Looking up, I saw a small pearl pinned to the collar of her clothes, shining warmly under the light.

Not cheap plastic, but real freshwater beads.

If it were just an ordinary clerical job, I probably wouldn't pay much attention to this inconspicuous yet exquisite accessory.

In fact, Li Zhihua had already seen some clues from her dress.

Combined with the tone of voice used when speaking in Tang poetry, it is even more extraordinary.

It wasn't the soft tone of Song Ci, nor the crisp tone of Li Yao, but a deep middle tone.

His speaking speed was not fast, but each word was pronounced clearly without any deliberate seriousness, which was not something that could be easily mastered.

And the look in her eyes when she looked at Mother Li was calm and steady.

There was no awkwardness or evasiveness like the first time I visited, nor was there any excessive warmth or scrutiny.

He looked at Mother Li calmly, with a reassuring air about him.

Even the way she held Mother Li's hand was just right.

If he were just a simple civilian employee, he would definitely not pay attention to these details and would definitely not have such an aura.

So, Li Zhihua can be sure.

This elder sister of Tang Shi is probably not a simple person.

At the very least, he is not an ordinary leader, but should hold an important position.

But, Li Dong never cared about these things.

Besides, men have always been careless.

However, Li Zhihua has been abroad for many years, and when he suddenly came into contact with the domestic environment, his vision became more accurate and his observations became more detailed.

So after just one encounter, she understood most of the Tang poetry.

Although he has not yet guessed the other party's specific identity and position, Li Zhihua knows that this Tang Shi must be extraordinary.

At least, it is definitely not what Li Dong said!

With such an outstanding elder sister, how could Song Ci be simple?

But the most important thing is, why did Tang Shi deliberately conceal his identity?

Before Li Zhihua could think about it, Tang Shi had already turned her gaze and asked, "Is this my aunt?"

"Li Dong often mentioned you to me, saying that you loved him and took special care of him when he was a child."

"After returning to China this time, even Xiao Ci took special care of me."

"Aunt, this is my first visit. Sorry to bother you!"

Li Zhihua responded with a smile, "What are you talking about? Xiao Ci is our Li family's daughter-in-law."

"Well-educated, virtuous and generous."

"There's nothing she can't handle, both at home and outside."

"At that time, I was curious about how Xiao Ci could be so outstanding at such a young age."

"Now that I see you, I've finally found the answer. It must be because you, Xiaoshi, set a good example as an older sister that Xiaoci is able to be so outstanding."

"Our whole family loves Xiao Ci very much and has always treated her as our own daughter."

"Not only do our family members like her, but the surrounding neighbors all know that our Li family has found a good daughter-in-law."

"You are Xiao Ci's sister. Now that you are here at the Li family, it's like coming home."

"On the contrary, our Li Dong is a bit useless. I'm really worried that Xiao Ci will suffer some injustice."

I have to say that Li Zhihua's words were very beautiful and quickly opened up the situation, which was considered to have saved the Li family's reputation.

Now that Tang Shi is visiting on behalf of the Song family, it would be inappropriate for the Li family to be either overly enthusiastic or overly distant.

But it would be even more inappropriate if Li Zhihua started by praising Tang poetry.

Li Zhihua's approach was much smarter, as he only praised Song Ci.

The more Song Ci is praised, the more it proves that Li Dong has good vision and that the Li family is blessed.

Similarly, the more outstanding Song Ci is, the more it proves that the Song family has a good family environment and good upbringing.

Tang Shi also came from the Song family, so he wouldn't be much worse.

Besides, praising her sister in front of Tang Shi is also a subtle recognition and compliment to Tang Shi.

So, when Tang Shi heard this, a gentle smile immediately flashed across her eyes, "Aunt, you are too kind to me."

"Xiao Ci is hardworking and loves to learn. I don't have to worry about many things."

"Besides, this child has been smart since she was young. She knows what to do and what to take responsibility for. She is able to manage the Li family well. This is her own ability. As the eldest sister, I dare not take credit for it!"

"As for Li Dong, to be honest, Auntie, our Song family also highly values ​​Xiaodong. Otherwise, we would not have personally handed our precious daughter, Xiaoci, over to him."

"Also, I've heard from Xiao Ci a long time ago that Li Dong treats people sincerely, cares about his family, and is also very ambitious."

"After some contact, I also think Xiaodong is very good!"

"Besides, when a young couple lives together, there's no such thing as success or failure."

"It's just about accommodating each other and helping each other."

"Xiaodong's character is clear. I believe Xiaoci will not be wronged."

"On the contrary, Xiao Ci has been spoiled at home since she was a child. I'm really worried that she won't be a good daughter-in-law."

"Auntie, auntie, I'm going to say something ugly here today."

"In the future, if Xiao Ci does something poorly, or if she is not thoughtful enough, or if she goes against the Li family tradition, or if she fails to fulfill the duties of a daughter-in-law."

“Criticism is needed, and education is needed.”

"If you can't be cruel, or if you can't discipline him, just call me and I'll come from the provincial capital to deal with him!"

"I promise that the Song family will never sit idly by!"
