good old days

In the public room of the brigade, Geng Ruhui took a notebook and pen and asked the brigade secretary with a serious face what he thought of Jin Shun's family going to the streets to beg for money.

The secretary was confused and asked: "What should I think? Their family has gone crazy now, and they can't even get a job. What should I think?"

"I won't let them go, and they won't listen to me." Threatening her about allotment of the land, she couldn't bring it up at this time to avoid being caught in the conversation.

Geng Ruhui frowned: "So you have nothing to do?"

The secretary was very unhappy when he was questioned, and his face turned dark.

Liu Quan took out his work permit and said, "I have seen Liu Fengxi on the streets of the city more than once, covered with injuries, begging for money. It won't be long before the city will set up a new department to clean up the streets. She's going to If you are arrested again this time, and if your team, which was commended last year, is criticized by the superiors, don’t blame me for not reminding you. The team’s productivity is obviously not low, but there are team members who go to the streets to beg for money because of their difficult life? You say it yourself Tell me, is that true? Or are the reports you submitted all falsified? As a grassroots cadre, why don’t you seek truth from facts at all? "

Geng Ruhui was shocked and immediately answered: "Comrade Liu is right. I think your brigade may really have the possibility of fraud. Otherwise, there cannot be any members who cannot survive and go to the streets to beg for food. This problem is very serious. I think I have You need to go to your superiors to find out clearly."

When the two men said this to the secretary of the team, sweat poured down his forehead.

If the superiors knew about it, wouldn't he be embarrassed? He must not be criticized?

It was originally a matter of going to the streets to beg for money. If he was criticized, what grade would he get in this year's assessment?

"You and I don't know each other in the past, right? Are you going too far?"

Chen Yi said nothing on the side, thinking that Luo Chaosheng's trick was indeed effective. The radiation area was small and he could hit Jin Shun'er's family accurately. The secretary is in such a difficult situation at the moment, and he will definitely have to correct the mistakes of Jin Shun'er's family after they leave.

Geng Ruhui had previously lamented Liu Fengxi's misfortune and was angry with him for not fighting. After being awakened by the direction provided by Liu Quan, she instantly became energetic and used the energy she used to write articles on weekdays to make the secretary unbearable.

...

The secretary was helpless: "What do you want to do? Why don't I tell them not to go to the streets in the city to beg for money again?"

Geng Ruhui said: "You don't care if Jin Shun'er beats someone? What if Liu Fengxi is beaten to death one day?"

The secretary felt that this lesbian was quite talkative, but she was too nosy: "How can I beat him to death? I have been here for two years, and Liu Fengxi has been beaten often. Isn't she still alive and well? I don't care about the affairs between husband and wife. Are you okay? This matter has been brought to the police station. The police station can't take care of other people's housework. What's the use of you looking for me? Haven't the comrades from the Women's Federation been there? One is willing to be beaten and the other is willing to suffer. Who can take care of the affairs of the couple? ? You can still live in other people’s homes every day and watch?"

Geng Ruhui was speechless and her face flushed with anger.

After leaving the village, Chen Yi said: "You have done what you can do. She can't stand up on her own, and it's useless no matter how much outsiders do." Some people don't even know how to open their mouths when the food reaches their mouths.

Geng Ruhui said angrily: "Liu Fengxi deserves it. Don't mention her. I will be angry if I mention her."

Liu Quan let out a long breath, "I almost forgot what Uncle Luo taught me just now. Fortunately, you two were helping me. Jin Shuner is really nothing. Men who beat women are nothing. Only men who have no ability will build their prestige by beating women." . Every year in our police station, there are female comrades who go to sue their men for beating, but most of them just leave it alone. After the couple fights, don’t they live a good life again after getting over it?”

Geng Ruhui shook his head: "That's different. Quarrels and fights are not the same thing. Fights can also be divided into husband-wife fights and one-sided violent beatings. The last one can never be forgiven!"

The three of them walked for nearly 20 minutes to where the truck was parked on the highway and met Luo Chaosheng and the driver.

...

After the three people left, the secretary angrily went to Jin Shun'er's house to settle the score with them.

Halfway there, he remembered the virtues of Jin Shun'er and his son, and headed towards the intersection where commune members must pass by when they go to work every day.

The past few years have been good, and accordingly, the harvest has been good. He is a grassroots village official assigned here, and he was praised last year. How could he not have the desire to move up? . The female comrade at the newspaper said that a piece of mouse droppings can smear and destroy the image of the team. If the team is not good, how can he, the team leader, be good?

So when the commune members came out of the fields after work at noon, they saw the secretary with a black face and a stick at the intersection.

The secretary has never been so gloomy on weekdays. One member boldly asked: "Secretary, what's going on?"

He looked like he was going to hit someone with a stick. Who made him so angry?

The secretary saw that not enough people came back and said: "We will have a meeting later. Jin Shun'er's family has lost someone to our brigade. When everyone comes back, I will talk about them in front of the whole village and correct them." Correct their mistakes!"

Everyone looked at each other and waited. About ten minutes later, about 300 laborers in the team arrived at the intersection, crowding the intersection.

The secretary said: "Female comrades, please go back and cook. We can't delay work in the afternoon. Young adults, come with me to Jin Shun'er's house!"

The secretary looked around and asked in a loud voice: "Where is Old Deng? Is he going to the streets again to beg for money?"

Lao Deng's son huddled in the crowd and said nothing, but was pushed out by other members.

"Where's your dad?"

Lao Deng's son looked around and looked guilty: "I don't know what he did."

The secretary said: "Don't go back to cook as a family. Let's listen carefully to Jin Shun'er's family today."

Lao Deng's family panicked, "Aren't you talking about the Jinshun family's business? Why is it our business?"

The secretary glared: "Your father went to the streets to beg for money and lost the people of our team. What is the difference between you and Jin Shun'er's family? You are lazy, indolent, and refuse to change despite repeated admonitions. I can't control you anymore?"

Dozens of strong laborers walked together to Jin Shun'er's house. The scene looked quite big. The dogs passing by were so frightened that they ran away with their tails between their legs.

The small shabby courtyard of Jinshun's family could not accommodate so many people, so the secretary asked both father and son to come out.

In the large open space in front of the courtyard, the members gathered together in a circle. The person named Jin and the person named Deng looked scared inside.

Jin Shun'er's father wiped the sweat from his head and asked, "What's going on?"

The secretary did not answer him, but asked: "Where is Liu Fengxi?"

The hygienist raised his voice and said, "I'm hanging up the liquid."

The secretary didn't care about that much, "Take the needle out for me, and wait until I finish talking before continuing to hang up! Call me here."
