Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 1678

Now that the Senate says "no foot binding is allowed", he has become the most resolute anti-foot binding person. Yan Lao Wu is a "literary boy" with a bit of "lotus addiction" hobby, and he is obsessed with the policy of free feet. Little-footed poor family", his wife's problem had not been resolved, and the daughter's matter was brought up. Liu Yuanhu jumped when he heard it, and took Yan Laowu out with a few militiamen.

Yun Suji could see clearly from behind the window, seeing the half-old man trembling with fright, he felt somewhat sympathetic, he originally wanted to come out to smooth things over, but when he thought about the abhorrent thing of foot binding, he felt that Yan Laowu was to blame , Standing up by yourself will hinder the work of the village.It is better to see how the village cadres deal with it first.

Before Village Chief Fan could speak, dozens of villagers who watched the excitement had already gathered from all over the place. Yun Suji saw that they were all well-dressed and in good spirits.

The village chief Fan coughed and said: "The spirit of the Senate has been conveyed at the last meeting. Everyone knows it. Everyone also expressed their determination: to be the first unreserved person in Qiongshan. Foot-binding village. If the daughter-in-law doesn’t let her feet go, the man will be punished.”

A group of villagers stood respectfully, and when they heard Village Chief Fan's voice, they all echoed: "Yes", "Zhong"...

Village head Fan cocked his stomach triumphantly, and said: "Yan Laowu's wife still binds her feet secretly up to now. The village hasn't pursued this matter yet, so she bound her daughter's feet again. Let him go. Family rules. The Senate is the emperor. If you dare not listen to what the emperor says, is it not a crime of deceiving the emperor? You will be beheaded."

Yan Laowu and his wife's feet went limp, they knelt on the ground, kowtowed for mercy, and said, "Don't dare to bind your feet again."

Yun Suji was secretly amused, thinking that the village chief would be able to pretend to be powerful.Now he became more and more interested to see how the village chief sentenced him.

I only heard Village Chief Fan wave his hand: "In this case, follow the old rules. Third aunt, wrap him up!"

A middle-aged woman squeezed out from the crowd, her face was reluctant, obviously very reluctant, she walked up to Yan Laowu, and said with a smile: "Old Wu, this is an official post, you can always take care of it... "

Liu Yuanhu said impatiently: "Hurry up, hurry up!" He said and pushed him to sit on a bench.

Yan Laowu probably didn't expect this to happen, his face turned pale and red, it was uglier than coming to a meeting holding a bubble of shit.Seeing that the third aunt bent over to take off his shoes, she jumped up like a cramp, frantically trying to grab her own shoes, Liu Yuanhu shouted: "Grab it!" Several militiamen worked together and took Yan Laowu Grab it, press it firmly, and take off the two shoes.

Yun Suji was puzzled when he saw that the third aunt was nimbly moving, half kneeling on the ground, supporting Yan Laowu's muddy foot, first putting her right foot on her knee, and putting some alum wine in the seam of the foot, Put your five toes tightly together, and bend your chest like a bow, then wrap it with cloth strips; after only two layers of wrapping, you take a needle and thread to sew tightly: one side is tightly wrapped, and the other side is wrapped tightly. Tight seams.Beside Yan Laowu, four militiamen held him tightly, and two militiamen supported his feet, making him unable to move at all.When the wrapping was over, I felt my feet were burning like charcoal fire, and I felt bursts of pain.Pained and ashamed, I started to cry.

Yun Suji was horrified to see it. He really didn't expect the village head to have such a hand.

"He also put on these lotus shoes, they are very beautiful," said Village Chief Fan.

The third aunt bowed her waist: "Old Wu, I'm sorry, this is an official servant." Picking up the pair of small shoes made by Yan Lao Wu's wife, she put them on his feet - how can I wear them?Liu Yuanhu took out a knife, cut the heel of the shoe, and put it on Yan Laowu's "Golden Lotus".

Village head Fan said: "Yan Lao Wu is at fault for this matter, and his wife is also at fault. Yuan Hu, hit her with forty poles! Just don't take off your trousers, women behave like others, keep a face."

Liu Yuanhu agreed, and led his men to drag Yan Laowu's wife to the ground, and started a violent fight with a pole, only to hear Yan Laowu's wife begging for mercy, crying and saying "don't dare".

After finishing forty poles, Liu Yuanhu asked his third aunt to take off the shoes of Yan Laowu's daughter-in-law. Sure enough, the feet were still bound inside the big shoes, and they were stuffed with cotton.

"Yuanhu, take a pair of shackles, put Yan Laowu on the stone mill, and lock him up for three days. Tell everyone in the village to take a look at his little feet. You can let people bind your feet, and you can taste it yourself. , don’t blow out the lamp and just care about your own happiness, regardless of the life and death of your daughter-in-law. Are you right?”

Everyone is right.

Village head Fan yelled at Yan Laowu's wife again: "Today, I put the 'Golden Lotus' of both of you on the stone mill to show off, and you still have a daughter and kid waiting to eat, so I will spare you this trouble." , don’t bind your feet anymore! Take your daughter and go back quickly.”

The fifth daughter-in-law of Yan Lao didn't care about her butt burning, kowtowed her head and got up, her daughter hurried over to help her, and the mother and daughter limped back.

Yun Suji felt very complicated after watching this scene of "trial".To be honest, he didn't have a very good impression of Village Chief Fan and Liu Yuanhu, but it didn't seem so simple to sum it up as "simple and rude".As far as today's footbinding is concerned, it is quite peasant-like wisdom.The name of this advanced village still has real materials.

He was contemplating when Village Chief Fan came in and bowed his waist: "I'm kidding, I'm kidding, don't do that, it's hard to do."

Yun Suji said: "It doesn't matter." Then he gave him the letter of introduction.Village head Fan took it over and took a look. What was written on the letter was:
"Here is the technical instructor of the Tiandihui, the veteran Yun Suji, who went to Qiongshan to inspect and supervise the agricultural work at the grassroots level. Please contact me..."

After the village chief read the letter, his legs softened a little: "My dear, it's actually a chief!"

He let Yun Suji to the back room, said a few polite words, and then invited Yun Suji to his home for tea.With a smile, he said: "Chief, the villain is from Laizhou. It was Chief Lu who saved his life and even promoted him to serve. The kindness of the chief is greater than the sky for the small farm. You haven't used it yet." Let's have lunch, I'll ask someone to prepare it!"

Yun Suji said: "Don't be polite, don't be busy eating first, tell me about the situation in the village."

The village chief still wanted to talk about clichés, Yun Suji said: "This is a system, it cannot be destroyed casually!"

The village cadres saw that he was ugly, and he spoke so uneasy, and couldn't think of how to deal with him for a while, so he said: "Okay, chief, rest, I will fetch you the village file!"

Having said that, I left the office to find the village accountant.The village accountant is a refugee from Zhejiang. He used to be a shop assistant. He has a good abacus.

He first showed the letter of introduction to the village accountant, and then said how rustic this man was.

The village accountant said: "A few days ago, Chief Liu said that there is such a person. You can't look down on this person! According to Chief Liu, Chief Liu has to discuss some things with him."

The village chief said: "Yes yes! I remembered it when you said it. On the day when I went to Lingao County to hold a world meeting to discuss the issue of scientific farming, the chief held a meeting first. It seemed that there was him. He was wearing blue Clothes, eyebrows and eyes are like that."

The village accountant said: "I think we should socialize properly and not rush him!"

The village chief went out and went back and asked, "I invited him to dinner, but he refused, so he asked to show him the file, what should I do?"

The village accountant got impatient, and said: "The chief wants to see the files, you just show him. We have all the ledgers."

"But how can this be shown to the chief now! There are dozens of forms, large and small, and more than half of them have not been filled in yet."

"Now is not the time for inspection. Chief Yun is a cadre from the central government. He knows what to do... You show him what you have done, and speak nicely. Let's just pass by." The accountant said, "Someone from the county is here. ?"

"Four guards came, and they all rested under the banyan tree outside the village office."

"It doesn't matter. Forget it, you go get the file, I'll beat the gong, and ask the leaders of each group to meet the chief. By the way, you hurry up and take care of Liu Yuanhu, and tell him to take care of those old guys with the militia Don't ask them to come out and complain."

Yun Suji waited for a while, and the village chief came back with a smile on his face, opened the file cabinet in the wing room, and took out the ledger.Stacked on the table.

"That's not all. Chief, which ones do you want to see?" The village chief laughed, "I'll bring you all."

"No need." Yun Suji clicked his tongue secretly, these ledgers alone piled up a table, not all!Regardless of the clerical style, as far as the actual level of the naturalized civilian cadres is concerned, if they are not used as wipes, they have to thank the cadres for their effective education.

Yun Suji asked: "How many families are there in your village, and where are they from? How many people are there in total? How much labor is there?"

Seeing that Chief Yun had just flipped through various brochures casually, the village chief was a little relieved. Hearing his question, he quickly got up.

Yun Suji said, "Sit down and talk, sit down and talk."

The village head said: "There are 84 households here, 430 people in the whole village. Most of them come from Shandong. There are also Shanxi, Zhejiang and Fujian. The labor force is 190 two."

Yun Suji nodded: "There are a lot of laborers in your village."

The village head said: "Boss, there are mostly refugees in this village, young and old, young and old."

Then he asked some other questions. Fortunately, the chief asked questions about paddy fields, dry fields, yield per mu, water conservancy, moisture conservation, and pest control, and he could answer them all in an orderly manner. , It can be seen that Chief Yun is very satisfied.

Suddenly there was a sound of gongs and drums outside, and Chief Yun was shocked: "What are you doing?"

The village head explained that this was to notify each Jia to come to a meeting and meet the chief.

Chief Yun smiled: "Don't be so grand. I'll eat something to fill up first."

The village chief took the opportunity to ask: "What would the chief eat for a light meal? There are chickens, ducks, fish, shrimps, and vegetables."
