The train driver in the courtyard

"Oh my god, has my daughter Jie Cheng's bride been kidnapped? Has my old man been kidnapped as well?"

After the third aunt understood the whole story, she thought of this terrible possibility.

She felt her legs go weak and she almost sat down in the vegetable garden.
Li Aiguo reacted quickly. He grabbed the third aunt's arm and helped her steadily to the stone pier at the door of Liu Haizhong's house.

"Don't worry, things haven't been fully figured out yet."

"Patriotism, what should we do about this? They won't be able to come back in this lifetime!"

The third aunt was completely at a loss at this time and looked at Li Aiguo in confusion.

At this time, Second Aunt, Jia Zhang, and the old women in the compound also received the news and rushed over.

"I heard that a country girl tied up a city boy and threw him into bed, and it turned out to be a good thing. The two of them were considered married."

"I will only let you go when the girl gets pregnant."

"Yes, yes, I've heard of it too. It's called catching a son-in-law."

"This is a good thing, Jie Cheng's mother. You will be able to hold your grandson in your arms soon."

Those old ladies who came to watch the fun didn't mind making trouble, and they started talking at once.

Especially Jia Zhang, ever since Jia Dongxu married a country girl, she has always felt that the Jia family has suffered a loss.

Seeing Yan Jiecheng being tied up by a country girl, he was even more excited, with a look of gloating on his face.

The third aunt was already worried about this matter, and when she heard these discussions, she was so scared that her face turned pale.

Xu Damao is knowledgeable and an experienced man.

He cleared his throat and said, "Third Aunt, don't worry. We once had a projectionist at the steel mill who was kidnapped by someone who thought he was a son-in-law. Later, the leader of the steel mill came forward to rescue him."

"Yes, yes, yes, how could I have forgotten that Jie Cheng is from the locomotive section. The locomotive section cannot ignore Jie Cheng's life or death."

The three aunts seemed to have grasped the last straw, and they tightly pulled Li Aiguo's arm and said anxiously: "Aiguo, please take me to the locomotive section to find the leader."

In those days, the employees regarded the factory as their own home, and the factory leaders were like the heads of the family.

It is natural and right for employees to ask their leaders for help in solving problems.

Li Aiguo rode his bicycle, carrying the three anxious and distraught aunts, to the locomotive depot at lightning speed.

Along the way, the sobbing of the three aunts was intertwined with the sound of the wind.

When Director Xing Duan heard the news, he felt his head buzzing.

He knew very well that if it was just a simple farce of kidnapping his son-in-law, perhaps the problem would not be too difficult and at least it could ensure personal safety for the time being.

But I am afraid that complications will arise and cause a big mess that is difficult to handle. The consequences would be disastrous.

Xing Duanchang looked at Li Aiguo and said, "Aiguo, please send this lady out first, and then we can discuss this matter properly."

Li Aiguo helped the three aunts to the education room next door. At this time, the three aunts were already crying.

Li Aiguo quickly asked Huang Shuxian to help take care of him, and then hurried back to the meeting room.

When we returned to the meeting room, several deputy section chiefs, comrades from the railway police station, and Minister Niu of the Armed Forces Department had all arrived.

Everyone looked solemn, and a depressing atmosphere filled the meeting room.

Director Chen of the Engineering Department was the first to break the silence and report the situation: "Section Chief, I have just sent comrades from Yexi Station to Zhangzhuang Commune to make detailed inquiries. Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui were indeed kidnapped by people from Zhangzhuang Commune.

It is said that Yan Jiecheng had provoked the daughter of Zhang Jinsheng, the branch secretary, and then was unwilling to marry her, so Zhang Jinsheng took the militia to forcibly kidnap him.

Zhang Jinsheng even threatened that he would let Zhang Xiufang and Yan Jiecheng get married tomorrow.

Upon hearing this, Director Xing Duan slammed the table and stood up.

"We have repeatedly told our maintenance section to keep our staff clean and not to mess with young girls or wives from the countryside, but Yan Jiecheng didn't listen to us at all!"

Minister Niu laughed and said, "Duanzhang, I suggest that we leave him alone for now. When he gets married, Zhangzhuang Commune will definitely send him back."

Zhou Ke raised his hand: "Minister Niu, your idea is somewhat reasonable, but if Yan Jiecheng would rather die than obey, will the people of Zhangzhuang Commune..."

He stopped talking halfway and didn't continue.

However, the leaders present were all smart people, and they all understood the deeper meaning of his unfinished words. Their faces changed instantly and became even gloomier.

After all, no matter what, Yan Jiecheng is a railway worker, a member of their big family, and their brother or sister.

In this age of strong collectivism, we must never sit idly by and watch our own people fall into trouble.

Xing Duanzhang turned his head and looked at Li Aiguo: "Aiguo, what do you think?"

Li Aiguo did not expect the matter to become so serious. He thought for a moment and said, "I think we should send someone to talk to Zhangzhuang Commune first. It would be best if we could bring Yan Jiecheng back.

Yan Jiecheng made a mistake, and we can handle it in our locomotive section. We can’t just let him be kidnapped like this.”

As soon as Li Aiguo said this, the leaders present immediately understood what he meant.

"Yan Jiecheng is not a very important person. This kid made a mistake and should be punished accordingly."

"But if this is really done by the people in the commune, I think we can forget about sending young workers to the countryside in the future."

"Just find a few people in the commune to kidnap the workers and take them home to get married, so that the family can have a son-in-law who has a food certificate and a salary."

"It's not a big deal if a male employee is kidnapped...but if it's a female employee...wouldn't that be chaos?!"

When several leaders discussed this, their faces became increasingly serious, as if they were facing a powerful enemy.

They all raised their heads and looked at Section Chief Xing: "Section Chief, we agree with Driver Li's suggestion."

Section Chief Xing also realized that this kind of thing could not be ignored, so he stood up and said, "Aiguo, you and Yan Jiecheng are neighbors, and you have borrowed a cow from Zhang Jinsheng before, so I'll leave this matter to you.

Minister Niu, Zhou Ke, cooperate with driver Li and bring the person back to me."

After that, he paused and said in a deep voice: "If the person is dead, even if it is a corpse, it is the corpse of our Qianmen Locomotive Depot, and we must bring it back!"

"Yes!" Li Aiguo stood up.

I had thought that the development of the container was coming to an end these days and I could run a large train for a few days, but now I have to go to Zhangzhuang Commune.

Li Aiguo now really feels like a brick that can be moved wherever it is needed.

After the meeting, due to time constraints, a rescue team was quickly set up within the section.

The name of the rescue team is simple and clear - Rescue the switchman Xiao Yan.

It’s a pity that this mission cannot be made into a movie. Li Aiguo felt a little regretful.

Minister Niu could not join the mission because he had to attend the annual training march, so he appointed two deputy ministers of the armed forces to cooperate with the rescue team.

The main force of the rescue team was comrades from the Qianmen Locomotive Depot Police Station, led by Zhou Ke.

Speed ​​is of the essence in war. If Yan Jiecheng delays for one more minute, he might be in greater danger.

After the rescue team retrieved weapons from the Armed Forces' armory, Li Aiguo dispatched a commuter train.

The locomotive was spewing thick smoke, like an awakened steel monster, making a dull roar.

Zhou Ke led his team members over and saluted Li Aiguo: "Report to the team leader, there are a total of 21 people in the rescue team, and 21 people are actually here. Please give instructions."

"At ease!" Li Aiguo gave the order in a crisp and clear voice.

The team members all puffed out their chests, moved in unison, quickly retracted their right feet, and stood in a row like a solid city wall.

Li Aiguo's eyes slid across the faces of the team members, and he said slowly: "Our mission this time is to bring Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui back from Zhangjiazhuang Commune.

This mission is different from ordinary missions. We are not facing vicious criminals, but members.

Therefore, I demand that no one should shoot without orders!"

"but."

He changed the subject, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes.

"If you encounter danger or are attacked maliciously, the first thing you should do is to ensure your own safety.

To accomplish this goal, all defensive measures may be taken, including firing.

If anything goes wrong, I will take responsibility!"

Li Aiguo's order seemed somewhat contradictory at first glance.

The team members were stunned for a moment, as if their brains were briefly at a standstill.

But they soon understood.

So, they puffed out their chests and shouted, “Got it!”

Their uneasy hearts were finally put to rest.

Compared with this mission, the team members are more willing to carry out the task of arresting criminals.

If for no other reason, it is because the execution of such tasks facing members is often subject to many restrictions, which can easily tie one's hands and feet, and even lead to accidents.

Li Aiguo was willing to take on this responsibility, and the team members were full of gratitude.

Working under such a leader, I feel confident!
"boarding!"

Li Aiguo raised his wrist to check the time. Seeing that it was getting late, he waved his hand and the team members nimbly boarded the commuter train.

Woo hoo hoo. Eat like crazy, eat like crazy, eat like crazy
The commuter train roared to a place seven or eight miles away from Zhangzhuang Commune and slowly stopped.

The sharp sound of wheels rubbing against rails was like the train's final warning.

Li Aiguo and his team members got out of the car.

At this time, the members of Zhangzhuang Commune had already discovered the train. When they saw the fully armed soldiers from the locomotive depot getting off the train, they immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Go and inform the branch secretary quickly, someone from the locomotive depot is coming!"

The members threw away their hoes and ran towards the commune.

A moment later, Zhang Dakuan, the militia captain of Zhangzhuang Commune, rushed over with dozens of militiamen.

Some of the militiamen carried old hunting rifles, while others held machetes.

Even at the end of the team, there were four militiamen carrying an old cannon with difficulty.

Although the homemade cannon looks a bit old, the powder core on it shows that its power should not be underestimated and it is really not easy to deal with.

When dealing with the Zhang Jinyin incident a while ago, Zhang Dakuan followed Li Aiguo to participate in the operation and had a good impression of this train driver.

At this time, the two sides were facing each other, with a distance of about two hundred meters between them.

Zhang Dakuan slowly raised his hand.

Wait for the militiamen around him to stop as ordered.

He gently handed the old hunting rifle on his shoulder to a militiaman next to him, then raised his hands high again and shook them slightly left and right to indicate that he was not carrying any weapons.

Then he walked slowly towards the train.

Li Aiguo pulled out the pistol from his waist, handed it to Zhou Ke, and raised his hand.

Then, he also raised his hands and strode towards Zhang Dakuan.

The two met in front of a small hill.

The breeze blew gently, and the wild grass on the hillside swayed and rustled in the wind.

Li Aiguo was the first to speak: "Captain Dakuan, has your wife given birth?"

"It was born, a boy. I gave him a nice name, Zhang Aiguo." Zhang Dakuan raised his chin.

When Li Aiguo heard this, he was stunned and the smile on his face froze instantly.

I secretly complained in my heart: This bastard seems to be taking advantage of me. But I didn't know how to refute it for a moment.

Li Aiguo took out a cigarette from his pocket and threw it to him. He also lit one and took a puff. He said, "Da Kuan, we are friends. What you did this time was not fair."

Zhang Dakuan struck a match and lit his cigarette, then said with a smile, "Why is it not authentic? My girl needs a man, and there happens to be a man in your switch station, so this is perfect."

"Okay, even if we argue here for a whole day, we still can't resolve the issue. Take me to see Zhang Jinsheng." Li Aiguo knew Zhang Dakuan's temper.

This guy is stubborn and only listens to the commune secretary.

"You are from the locomotive section, so you can be a guest. However, you are the only one who can come with me into the village."

Zhang Dakuan looked at Zhou Ke and those team members with some fear.

Li Aiguo was not afraid of these militiamen.

After all, with his skills, he has enough confidence to escape unscathed even if he encounters an emergency.

He looked directly into Zhang Dakuan's eyes and said firmly, "No."

"Are you still afraid?" Zhang Dakuan was stunned. When dealing with Zhang Jinyin, Li Aiguo rushed to the front with a pistol in his hand. He was braver than the wild boars in the mountains.

"I have someone with a gun now. Why should I talk to you with my bare hands?" Li Aiguo explained calmly.

"." Zhang Dakuan was a little disappointed. This train driver didn't have any heroism at all.

"Just wait. The matter of bringing guns into the village has to be decided by the Party Secretary."

Zhang Dakuan turned around and called a militiaman, whispered a few words in the militiaman's ear, and the militiaman ran away.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Aiguo handed Zhang Dakuan another cigarette and asked about the situation of Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui.

"Driver Li, don't worry. Yan Jiecheng is Guifang's man. How could we make things difficult for him? It's Yan Bugui..."

When Zhang Dakuan mentioned Yan Bugui, his brows unconsciously frowned.

"What's wrong with him?" Li Aiguo asked.

Zhang Dakuan took a puff of his cigarette and said slowly, "When this old man was arrested, he picked up two piles of cow dung on the way and even thought about selling them to Zhang Jinsheng."

Li Aiguo: "."

Even after being caught, he still did not forget to take advantage. He didn't know whether he should praise Yan Bugui for his generosity.

"What happened later? Did you sell it?"

"Zhang Jinsheng said that all the cow dung in the village belonged to the members, and Yan Bugui was not a member, so he did not have the right to pick up the cow dung." Zhang Dakuan said with a smile: "When Yan Bugui saw that Zhang Jinsheng took the cow dung without paying, he got anxious and chased Zhang Jinsheng, and even his shoes fell off."

Li Aiguo: "."

He felt that the third uncle really brought honor to the people of Beijing.

The militia went quickly and came back quickly, returning in a hurry after a while.

"Reporting to the captain, the secretary said that the locomotive section is Jie Cheng's maternal home. When his maternal family comes, there is no reason to prevent them from entering the village.

He asked you to bring these comrades to the commune compound."

"Secretary Zhang actually agreed?" Zhang Dakuan was obviously stunned.

Li Aiguo breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced in his heart that it seemed that Zhang Jinsheng was not an unreasonable and unruly person.

As long as the other party is reasonable, there is room for the situation to turn around.

Afterwards, Zhang Dakuan led Li Aiguo and the members of the rescue team towards Zhangjiazhuang.

The last time Li Aiguo came to Zhangjiazhuang Commune, it was to help the commune deal with Zhang Jinyin, but this time he wanted to rescue Yan Jiecheng. As soon as he entered the village, he felt the hostility of the commune members.

Second Auntie was extremely anxious. She rushed forward with big strides, her eyes filled with anxiety and anger. "Driver Li, Guifang and Jiecheng are a perfect match. You guys should just stay out of it, okay?"

Looking at his second aunt, Li Aiguo smiled and said, "This matter is no longer just between two people."

When the second aunt heard this, she jumped up anxiously, stamping her feet on the ground, and said excitedly: "I don't understand what you are saying. I just know that they are going to get married. If you take them away, you will break up the couple."

Li Aiguo knew very well that it would be useless to get too entangled with his second aunt at this time.

So he didn't explain much, just shook his head slightly, turned around and walked quickly into the commune compound.

As soon as he entered the yard, Li Aiguo directly asked to meet with Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui first.

"They are in the warehouse." Zhang Dakuan agreed readily without much hesitation.

He turned around and led the way in front, with hurried steps, bringing the two of them to the front of the warehouse, and reached out and pushed open the slightly old door with force.

At this time, Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui were squatting on a pile of firewood in the warehouse, full of worry.

Hearing the noise, he turned around and saw that it was Li Aiguo, and immediately rushed over excitedly.

Li Aiguo looked over and saw that the two of them could be described as being in a state of disgrace.

Yan Jiecheng was in tattered clothes, with messy hair and a dirty face. Yan Bugui had lost a shoe and was hopping on one foot, looking extremely miserable.

Yan Jiecheng stood up like a loach, rushed over, and held Li Aiguo's arm tightly with both hands: "Brother Aiguo, are you here to save me? Take me away quickly."

Yan Bugui raised his hands high and shouted: "Aiguo, my shoes, let them help me find shoes. Shoes..."

Seeing that both of them were full of energy, Li Aiguo turned around and left the warehouse without saying a word.

"Hey, Aiguo, why are you leaving?"

Yan Jiecheng was startled and tried to stop Li Aiguo, but was blocked by Zhang Dakuan: "Son-in-law, be quiet!"

Yan Jiecheng was afraid of Zhang Dakuan because this guy's fists were too powerful and it hurt a lot when he hit them.

Yan Jiecheng could only squat back obediently.

Yan Bugui raised his hand and shouted: "My shoes, they are round-toed cloth shoes that cost five yuan a pair."

Bang! The door of the warehouse closed, blocking their noise inside the warehouse.

As soon as Li Aiguo left the warehouse, Zhang Jinsheng walked out of the office.

He waved at Li Aiguo and said seriously, "Driver Li, we have seen the people. If you have anything to say, please come inside and talk."

It seemed that Zhang Jinsheng had been staring at this side and complaining in his heart. Li Aiguo asked the team members to stay in the yard.

"If you hear any noise, you know what to do."

"Don't worry, team leader!" The team members all straightened their chests.

They completely ignored the militiamen's wary looks, quickly drew their weapons, and stood upright in front of the office.

The black gun barrel emitted a cold glow under the sunlight.

The cold light was piercingly cold, and it was reflected in Zhang Jinsheng's eyes, which frightened him and made him frown slightly.

Is this a sign of war?!

Zhang Jinsheng was like a master of face-changing at this moment, and the seriousness on his face disappeared without a trace.

Looking at Li Aiguo, a warm smile instantly appeared on his face: "Driver Li, we are old friends, and you are also the benefactor of our Zhangzhuang Commune, how could we do anything bad to you.

These comrades are not necessary, absolutely not necessary.

These comrades must be very tired standing here, I asked someone to prepare some tea for them and take them to the room next door to have a good rest. "

After saying that, he shouted to a middle-aged woman who had poked her head out of the office next door, "Zhang Liangdai, quickly take a few female comrades and invite these comrades in to rest."

Zhang Liangdai. This name is quite special. It is the first time that Li Aiguo has heard of this name. He can't help but take a closer look at it.

The female comrade was probably in her forties and was wearing a homespun gown commonly worn by rural women.

The pants were soap blue cotton pants that looked very shiny.

But the soap blue color seems to be of different shades, and it doesn’t look like the work of a printing and dyeing factory.

When Zhang Liangdai walked past Li Aiguo, two black words "liang" and "bag" on her buttocks, which had not yet been covered by the blue soap, came into view.

Li Aiguo finally understood why she was called Zhang Liangdai.

Zhang Jinsheng also noticed Li Aiguo's gaze and explained with a smile: "A while ago, a batch of grain was delivered from the capital, and this grain bag is very good.

Zhang Liangdai was the director of the Women's Department. She was given a grain bag, which she made into pants.

The pants are fine, the only problem is that the words on them can't be washed off
But she liked to wear these pants and wore them all day long, so the comrades in the commune nicknamed her "Grain Bag."

Li Aiguo: "."

He thought of Yan Jiedi.

Zhang Liangdai walked up to the team members, smiling, "Comrades, come in and have some tea."

The team members all stood with their chests puffed out and did not move.

Zhang Liangdai realized something was wrong and turned to look at Zhang Jinsheng for help.

Zhang Jinsheng smiled and looked at Li Aiguo and said, "Driver Li, there's no need, there's really no need. We will never embarrass you, you can rest assured."

Li Aiguo asked with a straight face: "Secretary Zhang, do you think we will place our hopes on others?"

Are you kidding? Zhang Jinsheng is a man who dares to arrest people.

If he were to be cruel now, he would arrest all the team members.

Then they strung them together with a rope, tied them to a tree, and demanded a ransom from the Qianmen Locomotive Depot.

The Qianmen Locomotive Depot has really become a laughing stock.

At the same time, Li Aiguo also reminded Zhang Jinsheng that they came here to negotiate with guns in their hands and were not afraid of Zhangzhuang Commune.

After Zhang Jinsheng realized this, he forced a smile and turned sideways to invite Li Aiguo and Zhou Ke into the office.

He picked up the thermos and poured tea for the two of them. After sitting back, he began to complain: "Driver Li, I have no choice. Yan Jiecheng from your locomotive section has agreed with my daughter, and they are going to get married soon.

Who knew he would suddenly become an unfaithful man? Tell me, is this something a human would do?"

Li Aiguo said: "Then you can arrest people and force them to get married? Brother, I think you are not the secretary of the commune, but a bandit in the mountains."

"I'm not a bandit!" Zhang Jinsheng was startled and stood up quickly: "My daughter is a virgin, educated, and beautiful. How can she not be worthy of Yan Jiecheng? I let them get married to help them.

But that old Yan, as an old teacher, wanted to break up the couple, which was not a fair thing for him to do. "

"Brother, no matter what, you have arrested someone, which is against the law. You should release him now before things get out of hand."

Li Aiguo's voice became more and more serious: "Yan Jiecheng is an employee of our Qianmen Locomotive Depot. The Qianmen Locomotive Depot cannot ignore this matter."

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Jinsheng's expression changed.

He realized the seriousness of the problem.

In Zhang Jinsheng's opinion, as long as Yan Jiecheng and Zhang Guifang got married and entered the bridal chamber, they would be husband and wife from then on, and no one could hold them accountable.

Who would have thought that the Qianmen Locomotive Depot would react so quickly.

However, Zhang Jinsheng couldn't swallow this humiliation.

Suddenly, he remembered something and tilted his head to look at Li Aiguo: "That's not right. If Yan Jiecheng is willing, what should I say?"

"If Yan Jiecheng is willing to marry Comrade Zhang Guifang, then you have to release him first and let him make his own decision to get married," said Li Aiguo.

Zhang Jinsheng's eyes lit up: "Yan Bugui can't stop it!"

"No!" Li Aiguo nodded.
