Chapter 24 Seeking the County Magistrate

Chapter 24 Seeking the County Magistrate
Women are so strong on their minds, others must not guess, even if you guess, you will never guess clearly. Teacher Guo can't stop for a moment when she thinks about it. It is her consistent nature to think that it must be done, and she didn't even have time to give it to her family. Saying that, I just said to my neighbors, "I have something to do in the county!", then rushed out and rode to the waiting room of the bus station where the commune is located.

The uncle Qi that Mr. Guo is looking for has a lot of background. Uncle Qi’s surname is Guo, and his original name is Guo Benhua. He and Mr. Guo belong to the same family. The village is also one of the richest households. The ancestors attached great importance to children's reading. Not only did they hire a private school teacher at home, but they also actively helped the children in the village who were willing to study to study at his home. The ancestors were naturally loved by the villagers. People came to the village to collect grain, and there was a local ruffian in the village, who kept claiming that his ancestors hid grain. The Japanese came to his home and persuaded him to hand over the grain to the imperial army. The food was transferred to a relative's house more than ten miles away from the village. To avoid disaster, he also hid Qi Benhua, the only seedling in his family, in the relative's house.The next day, when the devils came to his house, they didn't collect a grain of food. The ruffian bad three insisted that his ancestors refused to cooperate with the Japanese. The people in the village stabbed him several times with bayonets, and he was stabbed to death on the spot.

Guo Benhua, who was hiding in a relative's house, became an orphan. With deep hatred for the Japanese devils, he became a small correspondent of the local guerrillas. He was quick-witted and brave, and he was literate.Once, on the way to deliver a letter, he happened to be interrogated by a devil. He cleverly grabbed the corner of an adult's clothes and avoided the devil's interrogation skillfully.

The adult who caught him was Mr. Guo's grandfather, Guo Songlin. On his way back from begging, he happened to pass by the check point. , Guo Songlin talked with Guo Benhua and learned that Guo Benhua and himself were originally from the same family. According to their seniority, Guo Benhua was one generation older than Guo Songlin, so they were naturally called Uncle Guo Songlin. Uncles are his elders, as long as they pass through Guo Songlin's village, they will naturally visit Guo Songlin's house. Guo Songlin really regards Guo Benhua as his own nephew.

As he grew older, Guo Benhua has changed from a correspondent to a guerrilla fighter. He dared not forget his hatred with the devils, so he borrowed a Qi character from the anti-Japanese hero Qi Jiguang, changed himself to Qi Benhua, and vowed to The devils were driven out of China.Because of his bravery in battle and his ability to read and write, he soon became a young political commissar in the guerrilla army, and later was incorporated into the regular army of the Eighth Route Army and became a real soldier of the Eighth Route Army. The head of a county.

Qi Benhua's home in the county seat is located in a small courtyard behind the county party committee guest house. There are three houses in the small courtyard, two of which are for his old couple and the other is for the kitchen. In addition, the rest are all planted with various vegetables.Teacher Guo, who was standing at the door of Qi Benhua’s house, looked in through the gap between the two doors, and saw that the door facing the main door was open. Although Teacher Guo didn’t see anyone, from the open door, one could see Guessing that there was someone at home, he raised his hand knocking on the door but stopped in mid-air without dropping it, and suddenly remembered something. Troubling an important leader in the county with such a small matter of his own is tantamount to shooting mosquitoes with anti-aircraft guns. Overqualified, while thinking about it, the door suddenly opened, and a bald middle-aged man in his fifties stood in front of Mr. Guo: "Isn't this Xiao Guo? Where are you from? Come in, come in!" Come in!"

"Uncle Qi, I miss you, so I came here to see you!" Mrs. Guo became a little shy, because the person standing in front of her was the county parent officer after all.

"You still think of me, how is everything at home?" County Magistrate Qi asked kindly.

"Okay, everything is fine!" Mr. Guo responded, and followed County Magistrate Qi into the room.Entering the room, Mr. Guo put the good peaches he brought directly on the chair by the door.

"Look, you don't need to be so polite when you come to my place. We are all a family, so sit down and talk." County Magistrate Qi said while patting the sofa next to him, reminding Mr. Guo to sit down and talk.Teacher Guo moved a little bit, and slowly sat down on the sofa.

"Is your job okay?" Seeing County Magistrate Qi asking about his job, Mr. Guo naturally felt that he should get to the point. In addition, when he heard County Magistrate Qi mentioning "we are all a family", he felt a lot more relaxed. , but I still feel that it is really ridiculous to directly ask the county-wide parent official for a county-level outstanding teacher quota.

"Fortunately, in this final exam, I got the No. 1 average grade in the math class in the county, and a classmate in the class also got the No. 1 in the county!" Teacher Guo knew it well, let's not mention the quota. If you want to talk about it, you can only talk about your teaching achievements and the nomination quota, which is to create problems for the parents and officials in the county.

"That's great! It shouldn't be a problem to be rated as excellent!" I never thought of something that Mr. Guo didn't want to mention, so County Magistrate Qi clarified it.Mr. Guo was very surprised by the shrewdness of the county magistrate.

"I was able to evaluate an excellent teacher in the county, but because of the limited number of places, I only evaluated an excellent teacher in a commune!" Although this result was only told to him by his classmates, Teacher Guo believed that this result was the final result. She emphasized the word "community" on her words.

County Magistrate Qi heard Mr. Guo said that the number of places was limited, and immediately understood Mr. Guo's intentions, but before he figured out what happened, as a local parent officer, it was inconvenient to say anything more!

Seeing that County Magistrate Qi didn't say anything, Mr. Guo felt that what he said might be a little too much. To alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere, he asked: "Where is Aunt Qi?"

"She went to work, look, she just talked and forgot to pour water for you." County Magistrate Qi said, he wanted to stand up to get the cup from the tea tray under the table.

Mr. Guo didn't have the nerve to ask his elders to pour water for him, so he waved his hands hurriedly: "You don't need to help me, I will do it myself!" While talking, he leaned over and took a cup from under the table, picked up the ceramic teapot on the table, and gave it to the cup in front of the county magistrate first. Filled up the water, and then poured water into the glass I just took.

"How is the family's income now?" County Magistrate Qi changed the topic and asked about the rural affairs.

Teacher Guo understood that although he didn't speak directly about his own affairs, he had already disclosed it to the smart county magistrate. As for whether he could handle it, the key was whether he wanted to ask about it.

"The income is much higher than in previous years, and everyone is very motivated." Although Teacher Guo has joined the teaching team, because he is a private teacher, he is still a farmer, and the natural responsibility system also distributes a piece of land. I know a lot about things, but what should I say at the parents' office?I can no longer be hesitant to talk about it like I want a quota, and I can't explain why.

"At present, due to the poor foundation of many families, there is no production cost at home, and there is no money to buy chemical fertilizers, let alone other means of production!" Mr. Guo directly reflected to the parent official in front of him that farmers development problems encountered.

When Magistrate Qi heard this, he looked at Mr. Guo with a serious expression, and seemed to be thinking about something while listening.

Teacher Guo saw Magistrate Qi's expression and thought he had said something wrong, so he didn't dare to continue.

"Uncle Qi, look, there is something wrong with what I said, please don't mind!" Teacher Guo stopped the topic and said as if to criticize.

"There is nothing wrong. This is exactly what I want to know. What you said is very important to the common people. The county has to help solve this problem, otherwise it will affect the income of farmers. This is a major event for the people of the county!" Qi County He leaned on the back of the couch, touched his forehead, and said forcefully.

Teacher Guo was shocked. This time I didn't hear the county magistrate express his opinion on his own affairs, but he expressed his opinion on the affairs of the people of the county on the spot. Did he come this time for the affairs of the people of the county? ?If the matter of the people in the county is really solved, it will be worth it for me.Teacher Guo cheered for himself in his heart, did he really become a hero pleading for the people today?Thinking of this, Mr. Guo secretly laughed at his deviousness.

Mr. Guo thought that there was nothing to say when he sat down again, so he stood up and said goodbye to County Magistrate Qi: "Uncle Qi, I made a special trip to visit you and report to you about my work. Don't waste your time!"

"Look at what you said, it's not a delay. It's just that if you have time to visit me as an old man often! I'm still very happy. Your Aunt Qi is not at home today, and next time you must ask her to cook some good dishes for you." County Magistrate Qi mentioned the fresh peach that Mr. Guo put on the chair just now, "You can bring this back to the elderly at home. I don't have any shortage here. You can't even eat the vegetables grown in my yard!"

Mr. Guo was not willing, and pushed the hand of County Magistrate Qi to lift the peach with his hands, and said repeatedly: "Look at what you said, my little heart, besides, I bought it from the collection of my hometown. This year's fresh peaches are for you. How can you let me take it back after trying it out? How can you taste it when you take it back?"

The two gave way, and the county magistrate Qi put the peach back to the original place, and then sent Mr. Guo to the gate, waving goodbye without mentioning it.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when Teacher Guo returned to school. After thinking about it, she felt that going to the county this time was just a waste of work and nothing was gained. For an ordinary teacher, she can only do this. As for The honor of outstanding teachers at the county level can only be resolved later.What Teacher Guo didn't expect was that because of her trip to the county, the county government compound was already busy.
