After being reborn, I have seven older sisters.

Chunsheng quickly rejected the idea.

He felt he had never seen him before, only that he resembled someone he had met before.

Soon, a name immediately came to Chunsheng's mind.

Hou Xinqiang, Hou Cuicui's younger brother who just started junior high school.

If that's the case, then this Secretary Hou Guoqiang should also be Hou Cuicui's brother.

Chunsheng suddenly felt that the world was too small.

Moreover, he simply couldn't reconcile the Hou Guoqiang in front of him with the scoundrel Hou Xinqiang who had cornered him and Song Hongqin at the school gate a couple of days ago.

At this moment, Chunsheng began to doubt that he might be wrong. Maybe they just looked alike and had similar names, and had no relation at all.

Hou Guoqiang led them into an office and poured each of them a cup of tea.

He immediately smiled and said, "Hyosung, it's been years since we last met. I tried to contact you so many times before, but you always said you were busy. Why did you suddenly come to see me today?"

Gao Xiaocheng gave an awkward smile and said, "We both work in the county town and live not far apart, so we can see each other anytime we want. However, we are indeed quite busy with work, and as you know, I often travel to other places for business. Sometimes, when I leave, I don't even know when I'll be back!"

Hou Guoqiang nodded quickly to show his understanding, but also complained, "Actually, I'm pretty much the same. Don't be fooled by the fact that I'm having tea and chatting with other leaders at work today. Maybe tomorrow, if our director says one word, I'll have to follow him all over the country. Sometimes I can't go home for more than ten days at a time."

The two quickly found common ground and began to share the hardships of their lives.

A moment later, Hou Guoqiang said, "Xiaocheng, you said on the phone this morning that your brother-in-law's job at the Qinyuan Commune Veterinary Station was taken by someone else. Do you know the name of the person who took his job?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaocheng immediately turned his gaze to Chunsheng and Chunmiao.

Chunsheng immediately replied, "The person who replaced my brother-in-law is named Pan Zixing, and he is from Liutiaozi Village in our commune."

Hou Guoqiang nodded and continued, "Do you know who's behind this?"

After Hou Guoqiang finished speaking, he thought for a moment and said, "I know the person behind this is hard to find, but if you can find out who it is, it will be easier to resolve this matter, so that the people in the animal husbandry department don't have to inquire about it."

Chunsheng and Chunmiao exchanged a glance and immediately said, "If we want to know who's behind this, are we sure we can resolve this matter and get my brother-in-law back to work at the commune's veterinary station?"

Hou Guoqiang smiled and said, "If it's really as Xiaocheng said on the phone, that Pan Zixing took your brother-in-law's place to get into the commune veterinary station, then this matter is irregular."

"There are some things you don't know yet. As soon as we came back to work after the New Year, the provincial leaders asked all districts and counties in the province to start investigating some violations. If the allegations are true, they are required to be dealt with immediately, and no one will be tolerated."

At this point, Chunmiao immediately asked, "What if the person behind him is a leader of the commune? Would that still solve the problem?"

Hou Guoqiang couldn't help but laugh and said, "How high are the commune leaders? Let alone your commune leaders, even if a leader in the county, district, or even the province makes a mistake, as long as the evidence is conclusive, they will be dealt with in the same way."

"So you can rest assured about this. The commune veterinary station was originally a subordinate unit of the Agriculture Bureau. The Agriculture Bureau will definitely handle this matter impartially. If the Agriculture Bureau cannot make a decision, our director will also apply to the relevant departments of the county party committee to intervene in this matter."

Upon hearing Hou Guoqiang's words, Gao Xiaocheng immediately lowered his voice and asked, "If that's the case, does it mean the province is planning something big?"

Hou Guoqiang nodded and said, "That's right. This time, it's not just our Qin Province that's investigating violations in various places. I heard that even some surrounding provinces are conducting investigations. So you must not have any worries. Being able to reflect the problems truthfully is actually helping us with our work."

Gao Xiaocheng didn't say anything more, and immediately turned his gaze to Chunsheng and Chunmiao, hoping that they could confidently reveal the name of the person behind them.

Chunsheng came specifically for this matter, so how could he possibly let such a good opportunity slip by?

Even without Hou Guoqiang's claim of a province-wide investigation, he would still have spoken of that person's name without hesitation.

"Pan Yu-ren, that person's name is Pan Yu-ren..."

Before Chunsheng could finish speaking, Hou Guoqiang immediately asked with a surprised look, "Is the Pan Yuren you're talking about the director of the Poor Peasants' Association in your commune?"

Chunsheng nodded immediately, "That's right, it was him. He's the one who caused my brother-in-law to be transferred from the commune veterinary station back to the village to work as a barefoot veterinarian."

Hou Guoqiang smiled and said, "That's great. Wait a moment, I'll go get someone. The clue you just provided is very important, and your request might be processed soon."

After Hou Guoqiang finished speaking, he immediately went out and left.

Song Chunping glanced excitedly at Chunsheng and Chunmiao, then turned her gaze to her husband Gao Xiaocheng and whispered:

"Looks like we made the right choice coming here today!"

Gao Xiaocheng nodded, unable to hide his smile. "I think so! I heard from a colleague a few days ago that the province had started investigating some things. I didn't expect it to be true."

Song Chunping smiled and said, "If we can really help my brother-in-law get back to his original workplace, it will not only help my sister and brother-in-law, but also put my mother's mind at ease!"

Gao Xiaocheng hummed in agreement. "I know. You told me about this before. Ever since my brother-in-law lost his job at the commune's veterinary station, his and my sister's lives have gotten worse day by day, causing our mother to worry about them all the time!"

Song Chunping nodded. "That's right. If you can get this done, I'll give you credit to Mom!"

Gao Xiaocheng couldn't help but laugh, "What does this have to do with me? It's all thanks to Chunsheng and Chunmiao. At most, I was just someone who cheered and joined in the fun; I didn't help at all!"

At this moment, Chunsheng looked at Gao Xiaocheng and smiled, "Brother-in-law, you can't be so self-deprecating. You were a great help in both of today's matters."

"Without your help, the translation collaboration with your company would definitely have fallen through."

"And then there's the Agriculture Bureau. My seventh sister and I don't know a single person here. If we were to come on our own, we'd just get kicked out by that old gatekeeper!"

Gao Xiaocheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard Chunsheng's words.

He knew in his heart that although Chunsheng's words made some sense, they were not as important as he claimed. At most, he had only played a role in connecting the two matters.
