Because of the commotion caused by the Gu family, Zhao Baogen’s joy from the successful flood prevention last night dissipated a lot.

He silently helped Gu Zhan pick up the fallen wooden fence door. After leaning it against the wall, he was silent for a long time before asking Gu Zhan, "Boy, do you blame your uncle for protecting Hongmei?"

Gu Zhan smiled easily and said, "Of course not."

He naturally understood what Zhao Baogen meant. Zhao Hongmei was nothing more than a pawn forced onto the stage by the Gu family. She performed a play in public. If the play went well, she would not get any credit, but if it went badly, the fault would be hers.

Gu Zhan naturally wouldn't bother with Zhao Hongmei at the moment, but if she really endangered his wife, that would be a different matter.

The wooden fence gate was stepped on and damaged, so Gu Zhan simply left it alone without repairing it. According to the time agreed with the carpenter before, the gate should have been completed by now.

In the afternoon, Gu Zhan borrowed an ox cart from the village and went to the carpenter's house in the Nanhe Production Brigade, pulling back the finished door and another larger cabinet.

The next morning, he found a craftsman in the village to install the gate, and from then on Gu Zhan's new home was officially completed.

After successfully preventing the Shanghe Reservoir from bursting, a big stone in Gu Zhan's heart finally fell.

In the next period of time, Gu Zhan planned to translate the manuscript carefully. As for Liu Xiaoxi, now that the months are getting later, if the couple goes to work, they will have no time to take care of her.

So after discussing with Liu Xiaoxi, Gu Zhan went to the brigade headquarters and planned to talk about this matter with Zhao Baogen.

As soon as I entered the yard of the production brigade, I heard someone calling my name from behind: "Student Gu Zhan, please wait a moment."

Gu Zhan was still wondering who the other person was when he appeared in front of him.

"Student Gu Zhan, why are you walking so fast?" the person opposite said coquettishly.

Gu Zhan was puzzled. Why did he call himself "Gu Zhan classmate"? Could it be that he was a high school or junior high school classmate?

Gu Zhan frowned and tried to recall what had happened, but it had been so long that he couldn't remember anything.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Gu Zhan asked a little embarrassedly.

As soon as these words came out, the other person's face suddenly became a little ugly, and then returned to normal. She stretched out her hand towards Gu Zhan and said loudly: "Hello, classmate Gu Zhan, I am your high school classmate Li Li."

Li Li? Thinking back carefully, there seemed to be a female classmate named Li Li in high school. Her father seemed to be a cadre in the commune?

Gu Zhan reached out and lightly shook the girl's hand: "Hello, Gu Zhan."

Gu Zhan had experienced countless such scenes in his previous life. When he lived again, he naturally retained the habits of his previous life. His movements were casual and elegant, familiar and natural.

Seeing this, Li Li opposite her, her mind, which had been dormant for more than a year, began to become active again.

When she was in high school, she liked Gu Zhan, but Gu Zhan at that time was always depressed and didn't talk much. He was often ridiculed and bullied by his classmates, so she didn't have the courage to confess to him.

Seeing Gu Zhan again now, he has become mature and confident, and his every move attracts her attention. At this moment, Li Li is absolutely sure that she really likes the man in front of her.

"Comrade Gu Zhan, what are you doing here?"

"Captain Zhao, something's up."

Oh, Li Li suddenly remembered that she seemed to know Gu Zhan at that time. She was from the Shanghe Village Production Brigade.

Out of politeness, Gu Zhan asked Li Li, "What are your plans, Mr. Li?"

Seeing Gu Zhan asking about her, Li Li was excited, but she was a girl after all, so she remained reserved.

She said softly, "I'm an agricultural technician in our commune. They heard that Shanghe Village did an excellent job in flood prevention, so they sent me here to learn from it."

Li Li said this with good intentions. On the one hand, she explained why she came here. More importantly, she explained to Gu Zhan her current job, which was a technician in the commune. At that time, it was a stable job, a good job that everyone envied.

After listening to this, Gu Zhan said "Oh" with a normal expression. Li Li was a little disappointed seeing this.

When she introduced her work to the young men in other villages, they all had expressions of envy and admiration on their faces. Why did it not work when it came to Gu Zhan?

Li Li was a little confused.

Just when Li Li was feeling depressed, Zhao Baogen rode his bicycle into the brigade yard.

"Hey, Technician Li is here, please come in. Gu Zhan, you're here too, come in, come in."

Zhao Baogen warmly invited the two in.

After some greetings, Li Li also explained to Zhao Baogen the purpose of her visit to Shanghe Village this time.

"Captain Zhao, our commune sent me here mainly to learn some flood prevention techniques. As you know, the weather is entering a rainy phase, and no one dares to let their guard down."

It turned out that the heavy rain that night caused disasters in several production teams of Xiaohe Town Commune. Either the harvested wheat was washed away by the water, or the heavy rain collapsed the livestock sheds or houses, and even a large area of ​​crops planted in the fields fell down.

However, the information reported by Shanghe Village said that only one house collapsed.

Therefore, the commune sent Li Li here this time, firstly to check whether the information reported by Shanghe Village was true, and secondly to learn. If the information reported by Shanghe Village is true, then Shanghe Village’s flood prevention methods are worth learning and promoting.

After hearing this, Zhao Baogen laughed heartily and said quite proudly, "Comrade Li, you've finally found the right person. Our Comrade Gu Zhan will be the main force in arranging this flood prevention."

Li Li was shocked when she heard this. How could Gu Zhan be so powerful? Why hadn't she heard about it when she was in school?

Gu Zhan did not dare to take credit for it and just said that it was arranged by Zhao Baogen.

Li Li had originally intended to get along better with Gu Zhan, and now Zhao Baogen's words gave her an opportunity.

She took the initiative to ask, "Then please ask Captain Zhao and Comrade Gu Zhan to show me around."

Zhao Baogen first took Li Li to the Gu family, the only house in the village whose house had collapsed.

The Gu family has now cleared out the mud after the house collapsed, and now the whole family is crowded in the house where Gu Zhan lived before. As for the house, it can only be built up slowly.

"When the time comes, the brigade will help a little more, at least we can have a place to shelter from the wind and rain." said Zhao Baogen.

Li Li nodded, but did not walk into the Gu family's yard.

She wore her newly bought canvas shoes when she went to the countryside today, so of course she couldn't let them get dirty by the mud and water here.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of going in, Zhao Baogen took his men to the new wheat field and finally to the reservoir.

After a round, Li Li could no longer describe Gu Zhan as "awesome".

She clearly felt that she had fallen deeply in love with Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan, who was still leading the way, was completely unaware of Li Li's little thoughts.
