Xing Weimin's face was full of embarrassment.

"How so?"

He laughed as he said this.

"Of course! County Chief Jiang is so outstanding, there must be many people eyeing him. But when they think of someone as outstanding as you, they feel ashamed and have no courage to approach you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng couldn't help but laugh.

"Comrade Weimin, you've gone through all that trouble just to praise us?"

Gao Xin couldn't help but laugh as she stood to the side.

"Director Xing, haven't you gone a bit too far with this?"

Xing Weimin waved his hand and said to the two of them.

"So, tell me, was it a compliment or not? Isn't that something we should drink together over?"

Upon hearing this, the two nodded with smiles.

"Of course it's worth it. Even if you don't say it, just the fact that you came is worth it."

Upon hearing this, the group clinked glasses and took a sip.

The other deputy-division-level cadres were quite polite to Jiang Feng and Gao Xin.

Jiang Feng chatted with them for a few minutes, then looked at Wang Qiang standing to the side.

"Uncle Wang, this glass of wine is a toast from Xiao Xin and me to you. You helped me a lot when I first arrived, and considering your relationship with Lao Yu, we have to toast you."

Wang Qiang immediately waved his hand, his face full of smiles.

"Oh, it's all I should do. County Chief Jiang, you don't need to be so polite. Today is your joyous day, we can drink anytime we want."

Jiang Feng smiled and then said to Gao Xin beside him.

"Xiao Xin, did you see that? Uncle Wang is just that kind of honest person."

"But Uncle Wang, we can't ignore you since you're so honest."

Gao Xin nodded with a smile.

"Yes, Brother Feng is right. Uncle Wang, Brother Feng and I would like to toast you."

Faced with their invitation, Wang Qiang could only accept the invitation and have a drink with them, but he said something before drinking.

"County Chief Jiang, I know your alcohol tolerance is high. You can drink a little more without any problem, but Xiao Xin should drink less. Even if you really drink too much, you'll still be sober when you get back, right?"

Seeing this, Jiang Feng smiled and agreed.

"Okay, Uncle Wang, then we won't stand on ceremony with you. I'll drink this, Xiao Xin, you should drink less."

Gao Xin smiled and nodded, then took a sip.

Seeing this, Wang Qiang smiled and downed his drink.

The attitude of these people left everyone in the private room stunned.

Apart from Xing Weimin, the other deputy county heads all had only one thought in their minds when they saw Wang Qiang.

Damn, this kid's really going to make it big!

Liu Yi couldn't help but shake his head inwardly, wishing he had known earlier that County Chief Jiang had this connection.

Even if it means losing all my dignity, I still have to latch onto this powerful figure.

It's a pity that even if I wanted to curry favor with someone powerful now, I might not have the chance. There are just too many people who want to do that now!

After Jiang Feng and Gao Xin left, they entered another private room filled with leaders at the division level.

"Minister Liu, we meet again!"

Jiang Feng looked at the Executive Deputy Minister of the Organization Department who had seen him off to his new post, his face full of smiles.

It was during his journey to take office that he gave himself some reminders.

Liu Guangyao said with a smile on his face.

"Hey, Xiaofeng, this isn't a work unit, why call me Minister Liu? If you're happy, just call me Guangyao."

Jiang Feng immediately waved his hand and said.

"Hey, this won't do. How about this, Brother Liu? Is Brother Liu okay?"

Liu Guangyao smiled and agreed.

"Alright, then I wish you a happy marriage and a baby soon!"

Jiang Feng smiled and raised his glass.

"Haha, then Xiaoxin and I will thank Brother Liu for his blessings."

As the two walked through each private room, Jiang Feng's face became somewhat flushed.

There were just too many leaders who came. Even if he only drank a few glasses of wine in a private room, he still drank more than a pound of liquor by the time he finished walking around.

"Old Jiang, how about I replace this wine with water for you?"

Yu Jian, watching from behind, looked on with a face full of worry.

Jiang Feng waved his hand slightly and looked at the villagers in the banquet hall.

"No, what if the villagers switch to fresh water? What will they say if they find out?"

"However, let's replace the water in Xiaoxin's cup!"

Gao Xin shook her head upon hearing this.

"I'm fine. We're already here with the villagers, how could I switch to water? Besides, my alcohol tolerance is pretty good, Brother Feng, you don't need to worry about me!"

Jiang Feng glanced at Gao Xin and then said.

"Okay, then you can just smudge it a little bit when you're done."

"Otherwise, if I drink too much, no one will care about me."

Gao Xin smiled sweetly.

"Okay, don't worry!"

Yu Jian saw this scene from behind and his face was full of helplessness.

But Jiang Feng and Gao Xin had already made their decisions, so he couldn't just force them to switch to water, could he?

After following the two downstairs, the first table they reached was the table where Yu Jian's father and his family were sitting.

"Uncle Yu, how's the food today?"

Jiang Feng looked at Yu Qun with a smile on his face.

Yu Qun nodded with a smile on his face.

"Wow, this is amazing! I've never had such delicious food in my life."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Xiaofeng, this feast you've prepared is truly impressive."

Jiang Feng felt relieved to hear Yu Qun's approval.

"Phew, Uncle Yu, if you think it's okay, then there's definitely no problem. Everyone knows you used to be a chef when you were young, so the taste is definitely top-notch."

Yu Qun waved his hand, his face full of smiles.

"Hey, what kind of chef is this? I'm just a handyman."

"Xiaofeng, I heard that a lot of leaders have come today. You and Xiaoxin shouldn't waste your time here. Go and keep the leaders company."

"We're all family here, no need to say anything more."

Jiang Feng shook his head, his face full of solemnity.

"Hey, Uncle Yu, you're wrong about that. What's wrong with being family? Family members shouldn't be wronged."

As he spoke, he addressed the villagers gathered at the table.

"Here, I, Jiang Feng, and my newlywed wife, Gao Xin, would like to thank everyone for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend our wedding."

"I'd like to offer this toast to everyone. Of course, my wife will drink less, as she's not a big drinker."

Everyone laughed and said.

"Xiaofeng, don't be so polite. Yeah, there's no need to be polite. We're all family. Whether we drink a lot or a little, there's no need to say anything."

Jiang Feng smiled and nodded as he listened to his fellow villagers' comments.

"Okay, everyone please feel free to do as you please, I'll start."

After Jiang Feng left that table, he walked towards Gao Xin's relatives.

This time, Gao Xin took the lead, since Jiang Feng wasn't very familiar with these relatives.

After walking around, Jiang Feng's complexion became completely rosy.

"Let's go to the teacher's wife's table first."

While the two were entertaining the guests, everyone was discussing the matter.

"See that? The Jiang family has really gotten rich! I just found out his wife is actually the mayor's daughter!"
