Before Qin Hong answered this question, everyone heard a bell ringing from a place not far away above the village.

This is the kind of bell sound that rings when classes start and end.

"Is school over?"

"Yes."

"Oh no, the wolf is still outside, this——"

"Secretary Xie, the wolf was already walking freely in the village before you and your friends arrived. If it was dangerous to the children, the villagers are not stupid. How could they just let it go?"

Qin Hong's words made everyone speechless for a moment.

Indeed, if wolves ate people, not to mention the villagers, Qin Hong would not be able to stand here and talk to them so calmly.

"It seems that the village really has tamed the wild wolves in the mountains? This, this is incredible!"

This was the only reason they could think of.

Qin Hong didn't rush to explain to them. Instead, he said, "I will take all the secretaries to the guesthouse to settle down first. Everyone wash your faces and drink some hot water. The weather is quite cold. Once you are warm, I will take you to visit the village. How about that?"

They really wanted to say that they were not cold and wanted to see this strange village now.

But seeing that Mo Hongqi had remained silent, and thinking that his physical strength was the worst among all of them, he probably needed to rest, so he nodded, "Okay!"

This time, there were finally no more incidents and we arrived at the guesthouse smoothly.

The so-called village guesthouse is nothing more than two rows of terraced tiled houses.

It is about the same size as the village committee, with only one floor and no second floor.

There are at most 8 rooms. If two people stay in one room, it can accommodate 16 guests.

That doesn't sound like much.

But this is a village.

Under normal circumstances, no one would travel so far to such a remote place as Peijia Village.

Those who can find their way here are either familiar people, or, like now, they come here by chance or accident.

There are eight guest rooms, which is enough to accommodate so many people.

The people in charge of reception at the guesthouse are also the daughters-in-law and capable aunts in the village.

Seeing Qin Hong bringing guests over, he immediately came forward and said, "Director Qin, are you bringing guests over? Do you need accommodation?"

"Yes, Aunt Guizhi, these people are Secretary Jiang's guests. They will stay for one day. Can you arrange a few empty rooms for them? Are there any vacant rooms in our village?"

"Yes! Even if there is no room, we have to make room for you, Director Qin. Please come in, guests. The rooms in our village guesthouse are relatively simple, with double rooms and single rooms. How do you want to stay?"

Xie Huaimin and Ding Shengli looked at each other and felt that although living in a single room was more comfortable, they did not come here to enjoy themselves.

Especially now that they knew there were many strange things about Peijia Village, let alone being on guard, they all felt it would be better for them to live together and take care of each other.

"There's no need for a single room. There are five of us here. I wonder if there are triple rooms. If there are, one double room and one triple room would be just right."

"As for triple rooms, we don't have any. But if the guests want to stay in one room with three people, that's fine. We can just move a small bamboo bed in. However, the bed is a bit small. If the guests don't mind the possibility of falling down when they turn over, we will open two rooms for you."

Aunt Guizhi's answer made Xie Huaimin and the others' eyes light up. It didn't matter if the bed was small, their sleeping posture wouldn't be too bad anyway, they just didn't toss and turn.

When I was poor, I lived in all kinds of terrible conditions. Now I am good enough to have a house to live in and a bed to sleep in. Why do I have to be so picky?

"Auntie, we only need two rooms. Please move a bamboo bed into one of the rooms."

"Okay, no problem, those guests please follow us."

As Guizhi spoke, she led Xie Huaimin and the others to the doors of the two nearest rooms.

It wasn't locked either, it opened just by pushing it.

"Guests, please come in. The rooms in our village are like this. They are rather simple, but they will not affect your sleep. There are also thermoses in each room. If the hot water runs out, call us and we will bring you new ones."

Xie Huaimin and his companions took a look and found that the room was indeed quite simple. For a room for two, besides two beds, there was only a square table in the middle.

The thermos, teapot and teacups are placed on top.

Apart from this, there are really no other decorations or furniture.

But the environment is clean.

Even the bedding on the bed was neatly laid out, and this alone was enough to make people feel good about it.

"That's great, thank you, auntie."

Seeing that they were satisfied, Aunt Guizhi was also satisfied. She liked guests like this who didn't make much trouble.

"Then the guests can rest in the room first. I will go and put the bamboo bed in the next room."

Having said that, Aunt Guizhi walked out.

After she left, Chen Xiaodong could not help but sigh, "Secretary Qin, this Peijia Village is really unusual. It has a village structure, not only a school, but also a village guesthouse. I'm afraid some communes don't even have this. What kind of magical village is this? I really want to go out for a walk now."

"Have some hot tea and take a rest. I'll take you out for a walk and you'll understand. Just one thing, don't be too surprised no matter what you see."

Hearing Qin Hong's tone of giving them a heads-up, and thinking of the scenes of the mother wolf and the golden collar they had seen before, they did not think that Qin Hong's reminder was unnecessary.

They nodded one by one, "We were not prepared before, mainly because we didn't expect the villagers living near the mountains to be so bold and dare to raise wolves in the village. Now that you said this, we are mentally prepared and will not make a fuss anymore."

Ding Shengli said this in a way that made Qin Hong feel at ease.

Qin Hong thought to himself that he was afraid he would not be at ease.

"Sister, were you the one who let those big leaders into our village?"

Pei Guohua, who had finally distributed the milk powder, finally found a chance to talk to Mo Yan.

Mo Yan nodded, "They came to see Uncle Jiang, probably just for the highway issue. I thought about it, Uncle Jiang was so entangled in how to build this road that he couldn't sleep. When he recovers from his illness and returns to the province, he will have to solve that problem. Since they are here, why not just let them in."

Pei Guohua: …

He said he didn't understand at all.

He had never heard of the term highway.

Seeing his confused look, Mo Yan smiled and said, "Brother, I forgot that you didn't know about the road repair. Anyway, they came to ask Uncle Jiang for help. They wanted us to have more money in Shannan so that they could repair the roads in their province."

"What? That won't do! There are so many places in our province that don't have a good road. For example, let's take Peijia Village as an example. If it weren't for you, our sister, our village wouldn't have our own road. Why should we build roads for others? No way! Sister, you are confused about this. You are just letting them come and take advantage of you. Why did you let them in? You should have asked Old Zhao to drive them back directly at the parking lot at the entrance of the village!"
