Reborn in 1979, with a female educated youth lying next to me.

Chapter 20 The brother-in-law I've never met.

Wang Liqiu was panting heavily, his eyes wide open like bells.

Without even asking what happened, he blurted out everything he had seen.

"Afternoon, I told him to hurry up with his hoe, and I saw a big jeep drive up to the brigade."

“This guy is a rare sight in our village, so I followed him to see if some leader from above had come. But as soon as I went in, I saw someone getting out of a car.”

"That person specifically asked for Liu Jia."

Liu Jia tried to calm himself down and walked up to Wang Liqiu, asking, "How many people? What are they wearing?"

Wang Liqiu scratched his head and slapped his eyes hard.

"I didn't look closely, but it seems like someone came alone."

"one person?"

Liu Jia raised his voice slightly, then sensed something was amiss.

Several ideas have already flashed through my mind.

Li Zhenhe has been arrested?

After interrogation, Li Zhenhe confessed, which is why the inspectors tracked him down here?

Liu Jia was even thinking about what he should say when the people arrived.

But now, upon hearing Wang Liqiu say that only one person had come, Liu Jia frowned again.

Enforcement by a single person driving a large Jeep is not permitted.

Could it be that the kid who gave them the bag heard the news and came here to take it back?

That's far too blatant.

Liu Jia grabbed Wang Liqiu's arm and led him straight outside.

"Let's go out and take a look."

Wang Liqiu was so anxious that he kept stamping his feet.

"Third Brother, why are you going out? They'll be here soon!"

Liu Jia bit her lip. If people really came in a moment, would she be able to explain herself clearly in front of the whole family, even if she told the truth?

There was no time to explain further. Liu Jia grabbed Wang Liqiu and pulled her outside, while Zhang Guilan chased after them, asking questions as she went.

"Sanzi, what happened?"

"It's alright, Mom. You go back and cook. I'll be back in a bit."

Liu Jia didn't even turn his head, and walked away even faster after saying those words.

But after taking only a couple of steps, a jeep stopped in front of them.

Liu Jia was stunned.

The jeep in front of us is actually a 212!

Oh no, this is a huge mess!

These days, cadres going to the countryside are usually equipped with old-fashioned bicycles, while those who can ride in jeeps are all high-ranking leaders.

The 212 is a combat-type jeep, capable of towing even small-caliber howitzers; it is indeed a combat vehicle.

Liu Jia reached up and scratched his head, gasping for breath once more.

"Third Brother, this is the car!"

Wang Liqiu pointed at the jeep, his eyes wide open.

Liu Jia feigned composure, "I saw it, I'm not blind."

As the two were talking, a young man jumped out of the car.

Then, Zhou Fengshou also got off the bus.

"Captain Zhou, slow down."

The man spoke very politely.

Zhou Fengshou couldn't stop smiling.

I never imagined that I, at my age, would be able to ride in a jeep like this. It's something I never dared to dream of.

Just taking this one ride is enough to brag about for the rest of my life.

Even after getting off the bus, Zhou Fengshou was still immersed in excitement. His legs felt like they were on cotton, so weak that he could hardly stand up.

Just as I was about to take a step forward, my leg buckled.

"Hey, isn't this Liu Jia? This is Liu Yutian's house."

To ease the awkwardness, Zhou Fengshou quickly changed the subject.

By this time, a large crowd had gathered around the jeep.

In Xili Village, people will take a second look when they see someone riding a bicycle.

Not to mention those rumbling jeeps.

People were eager to follow the jeep for a while so they could get a better look at it.

Ignoring the people around him, the man stepped forward, looked Liu Jia closely, and suddenly reached out his hand.

"Hello Liu Jia, I am Guo Jianjun."

As soon as he said it, Liu Jia frowned again.

Guo Jianjun?

Why does that name sound so familiar?

Before he could even catch his breath, Guo Xiaoyan suddenly ran in from the doorway, her voice choked with sobs, "Brother, what brings you here?"

elder brother?

Guo Jianjun, brother-in-law?

Liu Jia instantly realized who the person in front of him was.

No wonder the name sounded familiar; it turns out this person is Guo Xiaoyan's brother!

After figuring out this relationship, Liu Jia felt a sense of relief wash over him!

Liu Jia felt incredibly pleased that the person in front of him had nothing to do with those votes!

Upon seeing Guo Xiaoyan again, Guo Jianjun smiled, his eyes filled with gentleness.

“I’ve taken care of things on my end. I came here today specifically to pick you up. Look, I’ve brought the paperwork for returning to the city.”

Guo Xiaoyan sniffed hard, trying her best to hold back her tears.

After not seeing him for several years, Guo Jianjun had gotten darker and thinner, but he also looked more mature.

I just don't know what I look like in my brother's eyes.

Putting aside her emotions, Guo Xiaoyan reached out and put her arm around Guo Jianjun's arm, then affectionately called out, "Brother."

Guo Jianjun patted Guo Xiaoyan's hand. Although he didn't say anything, this simple gesture said it all.

After the newcomer revealed his identity, the people surrounding him erupted in a commotion, even discussing it openly.

"Who do we have here? It's Liu Jia's brother-in-law! Look at his impressive bearing!"

"This person is obviously powerful and influential. With relatives like this, the Liu family's ancestral graves must be emitting auspicious smoke."

"Liu Jia is going to enjoy a good life; he'll definitely leave the countryside in the future."

Then, someone in the crowd said something.

"That's not necessarily true. Didn't he and his wife get divorced?"

As soon as these words came out.

The atmosphere immediately became awkward.

Guo Xiaoyan lowered her head quietly, and her expression began to look unnatural.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Fengshou coughed heavily twice.

"What time is it? Those who should be cooking should cook, and those who should be resting should rest. Stop crowding around here and disperse!"

As the team leader, Zhou Fengshou held considerable prestige in the village.

But at this moment, everyone wanted to see what was going on, so after Zhou Fengshou spoke, people only moved their feet symbolically and did not turn around.

Guo Jianjun ignored all of this and smiled as he spoke to Liu Jia again.

"Liu Jia, please help me get these things out of the car."

"it is good."

Knowing that his earlier worries were unnecessary, Liu Jia's expression returned to normal.

After finishing speaking, he followed Guo Jianjun to the jeep.

Guo Jianjun opened the car door and started unloading the items one by one, leaving everyone stunned once again!

The cigarettes they took out actually had filters!

A whole strip!

And the wine, it's all in glass bottles, just the bottles alone can sell for two cents each!

There were four boxes of snacks!

Many people began to swallow hard as they looked at what was in front of them.

Just looking at all these things makes my heart start pounding. If they really became my own, wouldn't I be so happy that I couldn't sleep all night?

As Guo Jianjun handed the items to Liu Jia, he began to speak.

"It was my first time here, and I didn't know what my uncle and aunt liked, so I just picked out some cigarettes, alcohol, and tonics."

"You're welcome."

Liu Jia remained composed and natural, neither humble nor arrogant.

Liu Yutian and Zhang Guilan heard the commotion and hurriedly came out. They saw this scene as soon as they arrived at the door.

Zhang Guilan felt a pang of panic and unconsciously moved closer to Liu Yutian.

"Dad, is this Xiao Yan's brother?"

Liu Yutian hummed in agreement.

I had heard Guo Xiaoyan say that she had an older brother, but this was the first time I had ever met him.

Unexpectedly, the first formal meeting between the Liu and Guo families took place after Liu Jia and Guo Xiaoyan divorced.

not far away.

Zhang Cuihua peeked inside on tiptoe and her eyes nearly popped out when she saw the things taken out of the car.

Gritting her teeth, Zhang Cuihua turned to look at Zhang Dachui.

"Look at other people, they're divorced and still get gifts. You're such a good-for-nothing, you don't even have a wife!"

"That's my fault! It's because your thinking is outdated that people are bragging to me!"

Hearing that he couldn't find a wife, Zhang Dachui got a little angry and retorted in front of everyone.

Zhang Cuihua's face flushed red and then turned pale, her eyes filled with resentment and venom.

If it weren't for Liu Jia, I wouldn't have been labeled as having outdated ideas, and my son wouldn't have failed to find a wife!

Liu Jia, you little rascal, you've really screwed over our whole family!

Don't be fooled by your current success; I don't believe you won't have your day of misfortune!

Seeing that no one around him had left, Zhou Fengshou simply started shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Stop watching, everyone! What's so interesting? Go home right now!"

Seeing Zhou Fengshou frown, the people reluctantly walked away.

Zhou Fengshou also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Guo Jianjun has just finished helping Guo Xiaoyan with her return-to-city procedures at the brigade, and she'll probably be leaving soon.

He sent the villagers back because he didn't want Liu Yutian to lose face.

By this time, Guo Jianjun had already met Liu Yutian and Zhang Guilan.

Liu Jia approached Zhou Fengshou and said, "Uncle Zhou, let's go inside together!"
