Dad came out of the conference room. Although the weather was not hot in early spring, his clothes were soaked in sweat, and his body was dripping wet. His face was a little pale, which showed that the short conversation just now was very exhausting.

He was a deputy department-level cadre who was suspended for self-reflection, and his identity was basically the same as that of a commoner. He was suddenly "interrogated" by the secretary of the top leader of the Local Revolutionary Committee, and it was inevitable to be nervous.

I'm only more nervous than he is.

What made me nervous was not Liu Heqian's identity, but the question he asked, especially the last question, which was definitely not a casual question.How can a secretary who can serve as the top leader in the region be an ordinary person.How can such a sensitive question be blurted out?

It seems that it is probably Long Tiejun's own intention to let Dad give up his status as a representative of the National People's Congress. [

So why did Long Tiejun ask his father to back down?To help Wang Benqing?Not much!If Wang Benqing was so close to Long Tiejun, it would be difficult for Zheng Xingyun to gain a foothold in Xiangyang County, let alone openly confront Wang Benqing.Why did Wang Benqing compromise with him and let him come forward to do his father's work?

The biggest possibility is that Long Tiejun himself does not agree with Dad and Yan Yucheng's political views.Therefore, he not only acquiesced to Xiangyang County's punishment decision, but also, like Wang Benqing, did not want to see his father attend the National People's Congress.But with his status, he couldn't directly interfere with his father.In [-], although the people's concept of the legal system generally needed to be improved, "policies" were often replaced by "laws", and it was only a trivial matter to use organizations to forcibly erase an elected NPC representative.But Long Tiejun wants to respect his identity, and with his dignity as the director of the Regional Revolutionary Committee, he went into battle against a deputy director of a small commune shirtless.

In Xiangyang County, it would be considered unwise to have trouble with Wang Benqing, and it would be too much for one's self-control if one were to get involved with a top leader in the region, it would be a joke.

Since Long Tiejun had this intention, Dad had to reconsider this matter.In the officialdom, there is one rule that is eternal, that is, those who do not listen to the call of the organization and insist on going their own way will be out of the game.

The seriousness of "disobedience to greetings" in the local area is almost the same as that of "disobedience to orders" in the army.

Seeing Liu Heqian with a gloomy face, forced to smile and shake hands with Wang Benqing and Zheng Xingyun to say goodbye, I knew I couldn't hesitate any longer.

"Dad, give up your qualification as a representative of the National People's Congress."

Dad was obviously hesitating all the time, and asked, "Why?"

I had already thought it over, and immediately replied: "You can't make too many enemies. Especially Long Tiejun, you can't afford to offend them!"

Dad murmured, but refused to speak.I knew he still had some concerns, and felt that giving up like this would be a disservice to Uncle Wu, and it would be too unprincipled.But the most important thing at the moment is to protect yourself. The so-called keeping the green hills is not afraid of running out of firewood.If you can't keep your position as a cadre, even if you have great ambitions, you can't show them.

"Dad, you can't hesitate any longer. If you offend Long Tiejun, there will be no place for our family in the entire Baozhou area."

Dad was shocked, and this really touched him.To be honest, it doesn't matter whether you are an "official" of the deputy director of the commune.But for the family, my father attaches great importance to it, and he doesn't want our siblings to suffer from the disaster at all.

Accompanied by Wang Benqing and Zheng Xingyun, Liu Heqian walked towards the stairs.He obviously saw us, but he pretended not to see them, and the lines on his face didn't show any waves, as if we didn't exist.

Unable to complete what Long Tiejun ordered, Liu Heqian's eyes seemed to hate his father.

"Director Liu..."

Dad called out.

Liu Heqian stopped when he heard the words, and looked at his father with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Dad took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Please tell Director Long that I voluntarily give up my qualification as a deputy to the Xiangyang County People's Congress."

A smile appeared on Liu Heqian's face, and he asked reservedly: "Did you do it voluntarily?" [

"Yes, I voluntarily. According to the Constitution, citizens have the right to vote and to be elected, but I also have the right not to be elected."

The smile on Liu Heqian's face quickly spread, and he couldn't help but stepped forward, held his father's hand, and said, "Very well, Comrade Liu Jincai, I will truthfully report your wishes to Director Long."

At this time, I noticed that Wang Benqing looked extremely relaxed as if he had just escaped a catastrophe, and there was a hint of gratitude in the eyes he looked at his father.On the other hand, Zheng Xingyun froze, his face quickly turned from pink to light red...

Not long after walking out of the gate of the County Revolutionary Committee, a jeep chased after him. According to the license plate, it was Wang Benqing's special mount.

Dad pulled me and silently let me to the side of the road.

Being forced to give up his qualifications as a National People's Congress representative, my father was still very aggrieved.

With a "squeak", the jeep stopped beside us, and the driver poked his head out and said, "Director Liu, Director Wang wants me to take you back."

Dad was still hesitating, but I cheered, got into the front seat of the jeep, turned around and waved to Dad.Completely look like a child.I'm really worried about my dad being stubborn.Now it's a critical period, since Wang Benqing intends to reconcile, there is no need to make extra troubles.

Dad Nai had no choice but to sit up too, grinned at the driver, and said, "Master, I'm sorry to trouble you."

The driver responded lightly, and it was obvious that he was not very happy about the errand.

"What? You gave it up voluntarily?"

Uncle Wu was so angry that his beard stood on end.He was very happy when he saw the small car taking his father back to Liujiashan in person in the field, thinking that the twelfth brother received some attention in the county.I hurriedly drove the jeep into my house, and when my father said it, he immediately became unhappy.

My dad was so embarrassing, feeling ashamed.For this National People's Congress representative, Uncle Wu offended all the cadres in the commune and even the county. At the last moment, he bowed his knees and surrendered, becoming a "shameful surrender faction". I'm sorry!

Look at the situation, if Dad hadn't always been valued by Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu might have pointed his nose at him and yelled at him, and then walked away.

This thing was done too unreasonably.

Seeing that my father has a guilty conscience, as a son, he should serve him.

I pulled the bench over and said, "Uncle Wu, sit down." Then I ran over and brought a bowl of tea over: "Uncle Wu, you drink tea."

Since I repaired the electric motor of the Qiyi Coal Mine, I was personally praised by Director Liao from the province. I was in several brigades near Liujiashan, and they were very famous, and my reputation was as good as that of my father.Uncle Wu is honored to have to wait on him with my own hands, ha ha!

"Jin Cai, what's going on?"

Uncle Wu took two sips of tea, and his temper calmed down a bit.

Dad handed over a "flying pigeon", sighed, and said, "Liu Heqian, secretary of the Regional Revolutionary Committee Long Tiejun, came to talk to me personally and asked me if I should give up voluntarily. What do you think I can do?"

"Long Tiejun?" [

Uncle Wu took a deep breath, and then felt somewhat complacent.

"Mother who sells x, even he was alarmed, this matter is a big deal, hehe..."

"Isn't that right? Originally Zheng Xingyun wanted to talk to me, but I ignored him."

"Why, Zheng Xingyun also talked to you? This is strange, isn't Zheng Xingyun and Wang Benqing at odds?"

The conflict between Zheng Xingyun and Wang Benqing was almost an open secret, and few cadres, big or small, in Xiangyang County didn't know about it.

"How can I find out about their ghostly symbols?"

Dad cursed.

I can't help but be happy.Dad, if things go well, once Yan Yucheng becomes the secretary of the county party committee, you will probably have to become a member of the "Ghost Painting Talisman". It depends on what you say then.

In fact, my father admires Yan Yucheng in his heart.Sitting at home, he analyzed the nasty things between Wang Benqing and Zheng Xingyun in close agreement, it was really not a cover-up.In this move, I really have to learn from others.

Thinking of this, Dad couldn't help but glanced at me again.At the critical moment, this eight-year-old child seemed to be clearer than himself.

I know what's on his mind.The situation was urgent at that time, and there was no room for too much hesitation, so I tried my best to speak up.As for Dad's doubts, he couldn't care less.In any case, he couldn't dislike his son's "genius", could he?

"Long Tiejun personally paid attention to this matter, so I can't blame you. He is a big leader... Well, Jin Cai, then his secretary, Liu, Liu what..."

"Liu Heqian."

I will answer for my dad.

"Yes, Liu Heqian didn't say anything else?"

"What can he say?"

"For example, when will you return to work? Damn, we'll do whatever they say. We have to give some benefits, right?"

At this time, Uncle Wu has completely regarded his father as "one of his own".

"Hehe, he didn't say that. Maybe Long Tiejun didn't let him talk about it."

"Pooh!"

Uncle Wu spat heavily, his expression very displeased.

I couldn't help laughing and jokingly said: "Uncle Wu, you can't help but say that? They told you not to raise fish, but you have to secretly raise them. This is against the superiors!"

Uncle Wu blushed, lightly tapped me with a shudder, and cursed: "You kid knows nothing. What kind of law is it to raise a few fish? Those bosses in the county are all crazy."

I suddenly remembered something and said, "Uncle Wu, do you want to plant some more honeysuckle?"

"what?"

Uncle Wu didn't come back to his senses for a moment.

I remember that in the early 90s, there was a trend of planting traditional Chinese medicine in Xiangyang County, mainly planting honeysuckle.Because the soil and climate in Xiangyang County are more suitable for the growth of honeysuckle, the county medicinal materials company buys some wild dried honeysuckle from members every year.It’s just that there were too many people planting and the planting area was too large, which caused the price of honeysuckle to plummet. Many farmers lost their money and burned all the honeysuckle in the mountains and plains in a rage, which almost caused a large-scale wildfire.

That incident caused quite a commotion. Even though I was away from home, I heard about it, and I also learned about the planting techniques of honeysuckle for this purpose. Looking back at this time, most of them have been forgotten, but I just have some impressions.But it doesn't matter, in the huge Xiangyang County, experts can always be found.

Now more than ten years in advance, if only one brigade of Liujiashan planted it, it would not be unsalable no matter what.

"I said, we can ask everyone to plant some honeysuckle. That thing is medicine, and the county medicine company buys it every year. It can also increase the collective income."

Uncle Wu looked at me fixedly: "Xiaojun, how do you know so many things? Huh? Planting honeysuckle, how did you want to get it?"

"It's in the book."

Hehe, the book is really a good thing, anything can be attached to it.

"It's really said in the book?"

"Yes. Honeysuckle is highly adaptable and does not have very strict requirements on the soil and climate. It can be planted in the field or in the corner of the house. It does not have to be large-scale. The key point is that honeysuckle is a perennial vine shrub. It can be planted once. Can benefit for decades..."

I casually said some common sense about honeysuckle in my mind.

Uncle Wu never went to a private school, and most of his culture was learned in literacy classes.I have an almost superstitious trust in people who read a lot. Seeing me talking freely, like a "learned person" who has a lot of knowledge and memorization, I feel a little awe.

Dad looked straight at me with his eyes, which was quite strange.

sweat!

Dad knows what books Mr. Zhou and I read, and it seems that there is nothing about agricultural knowledge.

"It sounds really good. It's just that no one has planted this thing here, and we don't know how to do it..."

"Honeysuckle is propagated by cuttings..."

"What cutting propagation?"

Uncle Wu frowned.

"Just cut off the branches and insert them into the soil, just like poplar."

"Oh, that's right, that's easy, and it doesn't cost money."

Uncle Wu suddenly realized, and immediately beamed with joy.The brigade at that time was really poor, and basically had no accumulation surplus, so don't think about spending a lot of money as soon as possible.Only such a good thing with a small capital and a big profit can make Uncle Wu happy.

"Jin Cai, is there really such a good thing?"

After all, I was young, and Uncle Wu was not at ease, so he turned to ask Dad.

"Fifth brother, I'm not good at this."

Dad scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"It says so in the book, it can't be wrong."

I say firmly.

"Well, just listen to Xiaojun."

Uncle Wu made up his mind.Anyway, it doesn't cost money, even if it doesn't work, the loss is not big.

Uncle Wu was very excited, and he remembered the purpose of coming here before leaving the house. He felt a little funny, turned his head and said to his father: "Jin Cai, what kind of representative to the National People's Congress, if you don't do it, you won't do well. Anyway, I just let you You make a noise so that the superiors will remember you. Now that even Long Tiejun has been alarmed, it is not in vain."
