Chapter 185: I’ll Get You Out Soon
The more Lin Meng thought about it, the more he felt something was off about Mu Qinghuan, though he couldn’t put his finger on it. Muttering to himself, he turned and headed back home.
In the courtyard, his stepmom was chatting with Ji Liyang about his appointment as Village Head. Both women wore excited smiles.
Seeing Lin Meng, Ji Liyang immediately hurried over. "Mengzi, you’re back! What did the Town Party Secretary say to you just now?"
"Nothing much. She just went over some things I need to pay attention to as the Village Head," Lin Meng replied casually.
Hearing this, Ji Liyang grabbed his arm. "Mengzi, you’re so young, yet you’re already the Village Head! You’re so successful. You have to look out for us from now on!"
"I’ll try my best."
Lin Meng didn’t dare make any absolute promises. After all, there was still a Village Party Secretary above him. They had only made him Village Head to help pad her resume. If it weren’t for the benefits Yang Xueqing had promised him, he wouldn’t have bothered getting involved in this mess.
"Then I’ll thank you in advance! This is a huge cause for celebration. I’ll slaughter a chicken today, and our two families will celebrate together!" Ji Liyang was grinning from ear to ear.
"Alright, sorry for the trouble, Sister-in-law Liyang." Lin Meng couldn’t bring himself to refuse and nodded in agreement.
"Oh, we’re all family here. There’s no need to be polite." Ji Liyang shot him a flirtatious wink.
Lin Meng couldn’t help but shiver. This woman still hadn’t given up on him! Realizing this, he quickly changed the subject. "By the way, the new Village Party Secretary asked me to find a Deputy Director and a Women’s Director for the village. I’m not sure who would be suitable. Stepmom, Sister-in-law Liyang, do you have any good candidates in mind?"
"I don’t have any good suggestions for the Deputy Director." Li Wanrong looked thoughtful for a moment before smiling. "But for the Women’s Director, what do you think of your Sister-in-law Liyang?"
Lin Meng turned to look at Ji Liyang, his eyes lighting up slightly. The Women’s Director wasn’t a particularly crucial position anyway. Ji Liyang was young, smart, and fully capable of handling the job.
"Huh? Me?" Faced with this unexpected pleasant surprise, Ji Liyang was momentarily stunned.
"I also think you’d be a great fit, Sister-in-law Liyang. If you’re willing, I’ll go let the Village Party Secretary know later," Lin Meng nodded.
Ji Liyang snapped back to her senses, her face full of joy. She was just about to agree when something came to mind. She coughed twice. "Um, Mengzi, I don’t think I’m qualified for it. But I do have a much more suitable candidate in mind."
"Who?" Lin Meng asked curiously.
"Well, I won’t say for now. I’ll go ask her when I have time. If she agrees, I’ll let you know." Ji Liyang played coy.
"Alright then. I’ll leave this matter to you, Sister-in-law Liyang." Lin Meng didn’t press further. He couldn’t be bothered to deal with it anyway, so he might as well let Ji Liyang handle it.
After chatting for a bit longer, Lin Meng made up an excuse to return to his room, terrified that Ji Liyang would bring up treating his impotence again.
As soon as he left, Li Wanrong asked in confusion, "Liyang, why did you turn down such a great opportunity? Being the Women’s Director pays several thousand yuan a month!"
Ji Liyang glanced toward Lin Meng’s room and lowered her voice. "It’s all for the sake of curing Mengzi’s impotence. We didn’t succeed, so I want to see if Lanzhi from the village can give it a try."
"You mean Wu Lanzhi?" The image of a glamorous woman surfaced in Li Wanrong’s mind.
"Exactly, that’s her!" Ji Liyang nodded emphatically. "She’s a famous beauty in our village. Her figure and looks just ooze womanly charm. She’s only a year or two older than me. In the city, they’d call her a... what’s the word? A MILF.
"Plus, she used to work as a nanny for a rich family. I heard she even learned yoga and knows all sorts of tricks.
"Word is, she’s always wanted to be a village official. She even begged Li Dahai for a position in the past. If we use the Women’s Director position as an exchange for her treating Mengzi’s impotence, she’ll definitely agree!"
Li Wanrong frowned slightly. "But I already found that friend of mine from the county town to treat Xiaomeng. She guaranteed she could cure him."
Ji Liyang grabbed Li Wanrong’s hand, her face serious. "She only treats him sporadically. When will Mengzi ever get better at that rate? If we delay this for another four or five years, he’ll be too old to easily find a wife.
"That’s why we need a two-pronged approach. We’ll have Mengzi receive her treatments, while giving him more stimulation at home."
Li Wanrong thought about it seriously. "You make a good point. But will Lanzhi agree to it?"
Ji Liyang quickly reassured her. "Don’t worry about that. I’ll go talk to her another day. I’ll definitely get her to cooperate with us!"
"Alright, let’s do as you suggest!" Li Wanrong hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
...
Seven o’clock that evening.
To celebrate Lin Meng becoming Village Head, Ji Liyang and Li Wanrong cooked a massive pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms and prepared several cold dishes. After the food was ready, Li Wanrong went and called Pan Qiaolian over. The three families sat around the table, the atmosphere incredibly lively.
Caught up in the festive mood, the three women opened up, chatting away as they drank. Before they knew it, they had had too much to drink. By the end of the night, they were so drunk they couldn’t even stand steady.
Lin Meng had no choice but to help them all into his stepmom’s room to rest. As for Wang Wei, although he had also drank quite a bit, he could still walk perfectly fine and staggered home by himself.
After settling everyone down, Lin Meng hurriedly left the house. Just moments ago, Yang Xueqing had sent him a message asking when he would arrive.
Lin Meng actually had a good impression of the Town Party Secretary. It wasn’t because she was a woman, but rather because of her character. He could tell from the fact that she had openly told him the inside scoop about padding Mu Qinghuan’s resume.
However, Lin Meng had only taken a few steps out of his gate when a figure popped out from behind a large tree. "Xiaomeng, it’s so late. Where are you heading off to?"
"Uh, Aunt Meili, why are you here?" Lin Meng asked in confusion upon recognizing the person.
"I came to talk to you about something, but since you had so many people over for dinner, I felt bad interrupting," Han Meili said with a smile playing on her lips.
"I see. What did you want to talk about, Aunt Meili?" Lin Meng asked.
"It’s about the homestead issue from last time. Now that you’re the Village Head, can you help me get it sorted out?" Han Meili stepped forward, pressing her body tightly against his.
Lin Meng still remembered the matter and nodded. "Oh, that. I’ll get it resolved for you tomorrow morning."
"You’re the most reliable one, Xiaomeng..." Han Meili’s heart was completely at ease now. She reached a hand straight down toward his crotch. "Say, since you’re doing me such a huge favor, want me to properly thank you for it?"
Lin Meng shivered, instantly getting turned on. "Auntie, how about we do it another day? I still have some business to take care of."
"Relax. Don’t you trust my skills? I promise I’ll get you off quickly. It won’t take up too much of your time." As Han Meili spoke, she impatiently pulled Lin Meng into the shadows of the nearby grove and yanked down his pants.
