A pleasant life in a courtyard

Chapter 394 Complaints against the Impeachment
The Li family's full moon ceremony was not completed after all.

Li Xiang took back a basket of eggs, asked his mother to boil them and dye them red, and gave them to each family in the quantity of six.

Originally, Li Xiang was determined to hold one, but he changed his mind because of a "imperial" letter.

If he is just an ordinary person and there is a happy event at home, it is human nature to invite relatives and friends to have fun.

But that's exactly not the case for him now. It's only appropriate that everything he says and does, and even every move at home, must follow current events.

Others are still living in dire straits, how can he hold a banquet at this moment?

This "imperial" letter has nothing to do with him directly.

The sender is a teacher at a commune primary school in the suburbs of Putian, Fujian. His name is Li Qinglin. He sent this letter when he was extremely helpless. He probably did not expect that the top leaders would actually reply to the letter.

This man was originally the principal of a middle school in Putian County. In May 7th, due to some reasons, he was demoted and his salary reduced. He was later assigned to teach at Xialin Village Primary School in the suburban commune of Putian County.

After his eldest son graduated from junior high school, he responded to the call and signed up to go to the mountains and countryside.

After signing up, he was assigned a pretty good place, still in Putian County. He was assigned to the Water Affairs Office Brigade of Dilu Commune in the mountainous area of ​​Putian County.

Although the subsidy conditions for the educated youth who went to the mountains and countryside were no better than those of the Land Reclamation Corps, they also received subsidies during the first year of going to the countryside, to be more precise, eleven months.

It was not until the second year that the situation took a turn for the worse.

Whenever the family could spare some extra food and money, their parents would always find a way to mail it to them.

The first is that no matter how hard they work, the annual rations are still not enough.

But when it comes to young people going to the countryside, it's a bit stretched. It can only be said that they can barely get by.

The reason is that food money, medical expenses and other trivial expenses must be paid out of these eight yuan, which is obviously not enough.

The portion size of the latter is a bit better.

Especially for wet rice, after drying and threshing, the grain yield is only a hundred catties.

In the year when the harvest was the best, his eldest son received a total of about 200 kilograms of wet rice in the morning and evening, plus less than 300 kilograms of fresh sweet potatoes and about ten kilograms of wheat. .

Compared with some educated youth who have left their hometowns and are thousands of miles away from home, Li Qinglin's eldest son is already much luckier than many others.

With this kind of living standard, everyone these days has accepted that young people going to the countryside need support from their families.

If it is a rural family, these two subsidies will definitely be more than enough for them.

It was not until the second year that the subsidy was cancelled, and the eldest son had to earn work points to earn his own food, that a serious problem arose.

The Li Qinglin family also followed the trend and did the same.

What's the problem? It's food rations and money.

So after a year, Li Qinglin's eldest son has to go home and eat black market food for at least half the year to fill his stomach.

The slight subsidy in the first year is still affordable for their family.

The subsidy is divided into two parts, one is 37 kilograms of food rations per month, and the other is eight yuan per month for living expenses.

This small amount of food is not enough for a child who has been doing heavy manual labor for a long time and who is in a critical period of development. No matter how carefully he saves food, it is not enough.

In the first year after going to the countryside, everything was normal.

Secondly, it is just a matter of food and clothing, and then there is also the issue of cost.

Unlike some wealthy brigades, they can not only distribute food but also dividends.

Farmers' daily life and expenses for major events depend on this annual dividend.

But the team where the eldest son belongs has problems with productivity and food and clothing, let alone dividends.

Even if there was a little bit of savings that year, naturally we would have to keep an eye on the large group of villagers first. From the oil and salt imported, to the clothes and shoes he wears, medical expenses for illness, etc., since the eldest son has no source of income, Li Qinglin's own family can only support him.

The letter stated that despite working hard all year round, he could not even earn enough money to shave his head.

When he wrote this letter, it was the last straw that was broken.

His eldest son went to the countryside for several years and once had no place to live.

First, he was arranged to stay overnight at a fellow villager's house. Once the fellow villager's house had a baby, he would have to move out and start a new one.

Li Qinglin first found the commune, hoping that the commune could solve their difficulties. . . . . .

Later, he went to the educated youth management unit of the Putian County Hum Committee. . . . . .

Finally, with a glimmer of hope, he went to the buzzing group in Putian area and reported his son's difficulties and the process of reporting the problems to the county and commune. . . . . .

Li Qinglin is both unfortunate and lucky.

Despite those previous moves, his problem was not solved.

But the letter he sent did not sink into the sea.

The senior leader burst into tears after reading it and immediately wrote him a reply.

"Comrade Li Qinglin, please send us three hundred yuan to make up for the lack of food. There are many such things across the country, so we should coordinate and solve them."

Things like Li Qinglin's son are just one aspect of many young people going to the countryside.

There are many people who are better off than him, and there are also many people who are worse off than him.

But Li Qinglin's letter really made the higher-ups begin to pay attention to the treatment of this group.

Subsequently, orders were received across the country to investigate the local situation of young people sent to the countryside.

If you don't check it, it's okay. After checking it, you will find some deeds that are shocking to people.

What is gratifying is that since the higher-ups made up their minds to investigate, they have not thought of appeasement.

All cases involving criminal issues are published in the newspapers.

The higher-ups didn’t want to hide it, nor were they prepared to hide it.

BJ's newspapers during this period were full of such news.

Only then did the common people realize that some people were living as if they were in hell.

"Damn, these two scumbags are really worth killing ten thousand times. Sending them away once is an advantage for them. They deserve to be cut to pieces by a thousand cuts." After reading today's newspaper, Li Xiang couldn't bear it. He kept cursing.

Mother Li took it, glanced at it, and didn't dare to look at it.

As a mother, her heart was almost broken when she saw such news.

There are dozens of them, how dare you, they deserve to be stabbed a thousand times and go to hell for thinking they are dirty.

"Don't these people have the will to do anything? They are all so brave. What do they want to do?" Qiu Fanghua was so angry that her hand holding the newspaper was trembling.

Call her naive or take it for granted.

Qiu Fanghua had never seen such a vicious incident before.

What kind of demon has been created by all these years.

How inhumane must one be to do such a heartless and heinous act of evil.
