After all the members and educated youth arrived, the election meeting officially began.

Ten candidates stood up first, and none of them was from the Shen family. The Shen family had already lost. Those who had relied on Shen Mengan and Shen Liangtian to gain attention in the past were now in danger and unable to take care of themselves. They dared not show off anymore, and even dared not participate in the election.

Everyone has to choose a new team leader and six team leaders from these ten candidates.

In Qingping Bay, Yu is the largest surname. Because Yu Baoguo has served as a team leader before, the villagers trust him more. Therefore, everyone has the highest support for him and he is the most likely to be elected as the team leader.

Among the remaining nine people, there are members of the Yu family and people from other families.

Since the villagers were basically illiterate, there was no need for ballots during elections. The commune officials would just propose the names of the candidates and ask the villagers to raise their hands. The votes would be counted based on the number of hands raised by the commune members and educated youth, and there was no need to worry about whether there would be duplicate votes resulting in overlapping votes.

In the end, Yu Guobao received the highest vote and became the new captain of the Qingpingwan Brigade.

As for the selection of the branch secretary, it is temporarily entrusted to Yu Guobao.

Later, six new team leaders were elected one after another, and the new leadership team of Qingpingwan Brigade was born.

As the team leader, Yu Guobao had to speak in public.

He knew that it was because Xu Nuannuan and Fu Yunqi went to the county last night to report Shen Mengan and Shen Liangtian that Shen Mengan was arrested. Xu Nuannuan and Fu Yunqi could be said to have eliminated a great threat to their village. If it weren't for them, he would not have been able to sit in the position of team leader and village party secretary, and their village would not have ushered in new hope.

So, when he stood up, he said, "Since you have elected me as the leader of our brigade, I will definitely live up to your expectations, change the backwardness of our brigade, strive to actively develop our brigade, lead our fellow villagers to grow good food, have enough food to eat, and work hard to prevent everyone from going hungry."

There was immediately thunderous applause from the crowd.

They all knew about Shen Meng'an and Shen Liangtian secretly reselling collective fertilizer and enriching themselves. With Baoguo leading them, similar incidents would not happen again. Their grain yields would naturally increase, and the days of hunger would definitely become less and less.

Then, Yu Guobao deliberately searched for two figures in the crowd and said to everyone, "In fact, this time, we were able to eradicate this cancer in our village thanks to the new educated youth, Xu Zhiqing and Fu Zhiqing. It was they who went to the county town overnight to expose Shen Mengan and Shen Liangtian. Only then were their crimes discovered by Secretary Fang and Shen Mengan arrested. This is all thanks to them. It was they who saved Qingping Bay and brought hope to our team. We should thank them."

There was another round of warm applause from the audience, and the members of the commune began to search for the two men among the educated youth team.

Fu Yunqi didn't contribute much, but was openly praised by the team leader. Feeling guilty, he took the initiative to come forward and clarify.

"Hello everyone, I'm the Fu Zhiqing the captain mentioned. But the fact that we were able to bring down those two corrupt officials this time wasn't really my credit. Actually, I was also persecuted by those two corrupt officials, so I should thank Xu Zhiqing as well. It was all thanks to Xu Zhiqing's wit and courage that we were able to bring them down. If you want to thank someone, thank her."

So, everyone's attention was focused on Xu Nuannuan. It turned out that Xu Nuannuan was the savior of their villagers and the great contributor to their cause.

Someone called out to her, "Xu Zhiqing, please stand up and say a few words."

Then the same cry was heard again. Xu Nuannuan actually had nothing to say. The reason why she wanted to overthrow Shen Mengan and Shen Liangtian was simply because she didn't want her parents to be persecuted by them. Of course, it was also because she and Fu Yunqi were being bullied. Unexpectedly, she became a great hero in the village.

Xu Nuannuan couldn't refuse the villagers' kind invitation, so she stood up.

"Punishing evil and eliminating evil has always been a matter of justice. Since there are evil people in this world, there should be people who stand up and punish them. I just accidentally wanted to resist their difficulties. The real ones who eliminated them were our fair and selfless superiors and public security officials who performed their duties impartially. We should be grateful to them."

She didn't dare take all the credit for such a great achievement, otherwise she would be ignoring Secretary Fang and Director Ma.

Moreover, if there were no good cadres above them, they would not have been able to bring down Shen Mengan and Shen Liangtian so easily.

Having said that, everyone knows that for their village, the credit goes to Xu Nuannuan.

Secretary Fang and Director Ma have been here for a long time. If Xu Nuannuan had not come here, even with Secretary Fang and Director Ma, they still could not get rid of the hegemony of the Shen family father and son in the village.

Xu Nuannuan was praised and didn't forget to bring Jiang Ye along: "In fact, we were able to successfully expose them this time thanks to the help of Comrade Jiang Ye. He took the trouble to take us to the county town. I want to thank him."

"I also thank Comrade Jiang Ye." Fu Yunqi smiled.

Someone nearby immediately said, "Jiang Ye is a good guy from our village. Even though he looks fierce, he's a good person."

Mei Xiangcao felt indescribably happy when she heard those praises, especially Xu Nuannuan's praise for Jiang Ye.

It’s a pity that his silly son is not here, otherwise he would be so happy.

But Zhang Xiaoyan in the crowd was unhappy at this time. Jiang Ye drove Xu Nuannuan to the county town in the middle of the night, and she was afraid that something might happen between Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan.

She could also see that Jiang Ting and Xu Nuannuan were very close, so she didn't want to help Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan get closer.

Her brother Zhang Xiaogang was staring at Xu Nuannuan with sparkling eyes, as if he was fascinated by her.

After the meeting, Yu Guobao suggested that the village cook a big pot meal so that everyone could have fun together.

Each villager's family did not have much food, but although there was not much food, they were all very excited. They ate the same food as before, but it seemed to taste better than before.

In order to eat from the big pot, the villagers were more enthusiastic than each other. They brought grain and vegetables from their homes, built a simple stove, and set up the iron pot, and were busy.

Xu Nuannuan wanted to work with them, but was rejected by them.

"Xu Zhiqing, if it weren't for you, we would still be oppressed by those two bastards. You don't have to do the work, we can do it ourselves."

As transferred personnel, Xu Zhenqing, Fang Suyun and Mo Wuwei did not participate in the election of village cadres. They did not need to go to work today and were all resting in the cowshed.

While everyone else was busy, Xu Nuannuan quietly went to the cowshed to see her parents.

She took a detour to the outside of the cowshed and suddenly saw a familiar figure, it was Jiang Ye.

Jiang Ye was carrying a bundle of firewood on his back, with a bulge in the front of his clothes, and no one knew what was in it. He walked into the cowshed.

She had no plans to let Jiang Ye know her true identity for the time being, so she didn't go over.

Jiang Ye delivered the firewood to the cowshed, and Fang Suyun and Mo Wuwei hurried over to greet him.

"Hey, young man, why are you bringing firewood?"

Jiang Ye put down the firewood and took out a bag from his clothes, which contained a bag of eggs.

"I was worried that Uncle's wound wouldn't heal well, so I sent this to him and also brought some firewood."

Fang Suyun was so grateful that she didn't know what to say.

"Young man, you are so kind. You always think about us. Your uncle's injury is almost healed."

"Really? That would be great."

Xu Zhenqing also came out of the house. Seeing Jiang Ye, he was very happy and rolled up his trouser legs for him to see.

"Look, young man, I don't feel any pain at all now. I'm almost healed. The medicine you gave me is really effective."

Jiang Ye saw that the edge of the scab where he was bitten by the wild boar had begun to peel off, and it looked like it was about to fall off, which meant that the wound was about to heal.

He frowned slightly. His bottle of golden wound medicine was indeed more effective than the ordinary golden wound medicine on the market, but it could not make people's wounds heal so quickly.

Xu Zhenqing is older than him, so this kind of injury would not have such a good effect on him.

Is it because Xu Zhenqing has a special physique?

The smile on Xu Zhenqing's face was obvious: "Young man, you have been helping us all the time, and we don't know how to repay you."

"Uncle, aunt, please don't feel any psychological burden. Everyone has hard times. Now that I know you're in trouble, I feel at ease if I can help you."

"What a good boy." Xu Zhenqing felt very guilty. He was so good to them, how could they repay him in their current situation?

"Young man, you've been so good to us. I don't know how to repay you."

"Uncle, there's no need to repay me. If you say that, I'll feel guilty."

"Hahaha, then I won't say anything." But in his heart he was still thinking about how to repay him in the future.

Just like last time, Jiang Ye didn't stay for long and left immediately.

Xu Nuannuan went to the cowshed only after seeing him leave.

Before going in, she took out the ripe tomatoes, two bags of egg cakes, and a pound of peach cakes from the space.

After entering, he quickly gave it to Fang Suyun: "Mom, I bought this egg cake and peach pastry in the county town, and I exchanged the tomatoes at the farmer's house."

Fang Suyun took it and put it in the cabinet first.

"How's my dad's leg?" Xu Nuannuan looked at Xu Zhenqing.

Xu Zhenqing, his trouser legs rolled up, said, "It's almost completely healed, thanks to the medicine the young man gave me. It's quite effective."

Xu Nuannuan still didn't reveal the truth, so the secret of the space remained hidden.

"Nuannuan, if you run over here with the things, you won't be afraid that they will find you."

Xu Nuannuan smiled and said, "Dad, Mom. I'm here to tell you some good news today. The former village party secretary and team leader here are either dead or arrested. I think the current team leader is much better than them. I think he won't give you any trouble in the future."

"Okay, okay. What a coincidence! You came right after that young man left. They also brought us firewood and eggs. I heard that people in the countryside really treasure eggs. Most people wouldn't eat them themselves and would trade them for other things, but they gave them to us, saying they wanted to nourish your father. Oh, how can I repay them?"

Xu Nuannuan knew that Jiang Ye had come again, so she said to Fang Suyun, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely find a chance to repay you."

She acquired her medical skills while completing missions in other worlds, so she couldn't let her parents know yet. She would tell them when she found a suitable explanation.

She turned her head and saw Mo Wuwei writing something on the table, so she walked over and asked, "Brother Mo, what are you writing?"

Mo Wuwei let her read it openly, "I have nothing to do, so I just wrote something to kill time."

Xu Nuannuan saw that he was writing a short story. She only read a little bit and thought it was good. The writing was brilliant and the story was vivid. She casually suggested, "Brother Mo, you write so well. Why don't I help you submit it to the newspaper? Then your writing won't be in vain."

After hearing this, Mo Wuwei was stunned for a moment.

Because he was demoted because of his writing, he was somewhat resistant.

After thinking for a while, I thought, "My name is definitely not suitable for publishing an article, so I need to use your name."

"no problem."

"Okay then. I'll trouble you, Nuannuan. Don't worry, I will never write anything that cannot be written."

Xu Nuannuan smiled and said, "Of course I will be your first editor. I will check every article you write first. If there is anything inappropriate, I will modify it, or directly reject it."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Xu Nuannuan estimated the time and said, "I've been out for quite some time now. I need to go back."

winnowing ground

Zhang Xiaoyan was worried that Xu Nuannuan might have something going on with Jiang Ye. She looked around but didn't see Jiang Ye or Xu Nuannuan. She was afraid that something was going on between Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan, and now that she didn't see them, she felt very nervous, wondering if Xu Nuannuan had gone to find Jiang Ye.

She first found Mei Xiangcao and asked, "Why hasn't Brother Jiang Ye come yet? Why don't I go home and call him?"

"No need to go, I've already told him, he'll be here soon."

But Zhang Xiaoyan couldn't wait. When she thought that Xu Nuannuan was with Jiang Ye, she became restless. She had to go there in person.

On the other side, when Xu Nuannuan was walking towards the threshing ground, she happened to meet Jiang Ye halfway.
