《1970's Gangster Couple [MTL]》Chapter 39: It Grows Out
Advertisement
Secretary Qin stayed in Chengkou County these days and inspected other villages by the way. Like Xiaoqian Village, the drought was very serious. While anxious, he waited for the situation of Ji Ji Cao with meager hope.
When he left Xiaoqian Village, he said: As long as Jijicao began to emerge, he would report to the county seat immediately.
When he wanted to come, Xiao Xiao made it clear that Ji Cao could fully grow in about ten days. Now it's the fifth day, at least it should have grown in half.
Until last night, I still didn't see Xiaoqian villagers to report. He couldn't wait any longer. He took someone to Xiaoqian Village before dawn.
It was dawn when I arrived at the entrance of Xiaoqian Village.
When he was slapped by accountant Xu, Wang Desheng just got up: "Captain, Secretary Qin and the county magistrate are here again. They must come to see the situation of Jijicao, but there is nothing on the ground. What should I do?"
Wang Desheng took a breath: "What can I do? At worst, he was criticized." The hope in his eyes gradually faded.
At first, reason also told him that what Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei said was too far-to-natural and could not be believed at all. But seeing that famine is coming, he is like a desperate man whose foot has stepped into a cliff, and a little hope will be grasped like a life-saving straw.
There can't be famine anymore! Thinking of the famine in those years and the purgatory of many people starving to death in the village, Wang Desheng was surrounded by panic and despair.
He stayed in the field until midnight last night. He looked almost an inch on the ground with a torch, hoping to see those grasses really grow up like Xiao Xiao said.
No, there is no movement at all.
Wang Desheng knew that the last hope was also dashed.
"Let's go and welcome." Anyway, he can't afford to provoke these senior officials. This year's harvest can be 10% of previous years. God bless him. He dares not offend the county magistrate. At that time, he will try to ask the county to keep the only grain collected. That's the life of the whole village!
As soon as the two of them left Wang Desheng's house, the secretary also got the news.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Let's go." Ji Ji Cao was taken out by them. Secretary Qin valued Ji Ji Cao so much, but now he has failed. At that time, he and Wang Desheng will definitely be criticized.
However, now I can't care so much about it. Ji Ji Cao can't grow up. At that time, everyone will be hungry. I don't know whether they can survive this winter. My life is running out. Who cares whether they are criticized or not?
They hurried to the entrance of the village. As soon as Secretary Qin met them, before the county magistrate could speak, he hurriedly asked, "How's it going?" Has the grass grown?"
Wang Desheng gave up, and Fengshuang's sad face added despair and said difficultly: "Secretary Qin, I'm sorry, we have let you down. Ji Jicao didn't move."
Although he knew that this was the most likely result, Secretary Qin couldn't stop his disappointment and his heart sank quickly. As the secretary of the provincial party committee of a province, according to the ancient official position, he can already be counted as a feudal official.
I have to deal with so many business every day and come into contact with a lot of core events of the country.

He knows how fragile the state of China, which has just been established, is surrounded by powerful countries outside, and the inner countries and people have suffered from hardships. This year's drought is much more serious than last year, and it is the three northern provinces of China's grain depot, which will cause immeasurable losses. How hard it is to hit China, the country and the people!
The country has always advocated the breaking of feudalism. As the secretary of the provincial party committee, he knows it best, but now he can't help praying to heaven that it can rain as soon as possible, save the crops in the land, and save the people of China.
The people of China have suffered so much. After experiencing the baptism of war artillery, the leaders tried their best, soldiers threw their heads and sprinkled blood. The people worked hard and finally established the State of China. Why is God so cruel to the people of China?
Secretary Qin's heart was turbulent, but his face was forcibly suppressed. Others could not see what he thought in his heart, but only felt that his eyes did not seem to be so bright as before.
"Let's go. Now that we're here, at least go and have a look. Didn't Comrade Xiao say that it was about ten days? It's only the fifth day. Maybe Ji Jicao would grow up in the moment of the tenth day." Secretary Qin whispered, not knowing whether he was comforting himself or others.
His secretary looked at Secretary Qin worriedly. Although Secretary Qin did not say anything, he knew that the secretary actually had great hopes for Ji Jicao from the bottom of his heart.
At this time, even he couldn't help complaining to the young couple. If they hadn't been talking nonsense, they would not have given Qin Shu hope and let him down.
The secretary is just complaining that the leadership team of Chengkou County has secretly hated Xiao Xiao, Wang Wei and these village cadres in Xiaoqian Village to provoke such a big basket in the county.
If this matter is done, it will naturally be a great achievement. Jijicao was discovered by the people under the rule of Chengkou County that as the leaders of Chengkou County, they will also add a beautiful stroke to their resumes. With such achievements, if they work well, they will rise.
But now Ji Ji Cao is useless. They disappoint Secretary Qin. Secretary Qin will not care about the following villagers, but will definitely lower their senses.
Thinking of being involved in their official career, the county magistrate and others made up their minds. When Secretary Qin left, they must teach the two people in Xiaoqian Village a lesson, so that they could talk nonsense and cause so much disturbances in vain.
The whole village was paying attention to the matter of Jijicao. Xiao's father got up before dawn. He went to the river to pick up water. On the way back, he happened to see Secretary Qin and his party from afar and faintly heard their conversation.
He hurriedly picked up the water back and sat in the yard in a daze.
Ji Ji Cao was taken out by Xiao and Wang Wei. I heard that senior officials in the province are paying attention to it. Now Ji Ji Cao is useless. Doesn't the senior official blame Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei?
Xiao Xiao is the daughter of the Xiao family, and Wang Wei is their son-in-law. If they are unlucky, will they implicate the Xiao family? What about Guoxing? Guoxing didn't do anything, and he didn't go unlucky!

Although Xiao's father looks cowardly and honest, he has been thinking a lot in his heart. The more he sat in the yard, the more he thought that he was right.
When Xiao's mother got up and saw Xiao's father's sad face, she couldn't help asking, "Old man, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao's father looked at Xiao's mother and shouted angrily, "They are all good daughters you gave birth to." He said his worries.
Xiao's mother began to tremble when she heard this, "What should I do? Can we be implicated by our country?" They won't also be dragged for criticism, will they? Then the future after Guoxing is over!
Xiao's mother only felt dark in front of her eyes, and her whole body was paralyzed to the ground.
These two couples are usually timid and cowardly, but when it comes to Xiao Guoxing, they instantly become extremely bold, which is also a true portrayal of fatherly love.
Xiao's father suddenly stood up: "No, we can't let the second sister's dead girl and the wolf cub. We have to make it clear to those senior officials that the dead girl and the wolf cub have nothing to do with us."
"Dad, what are you going to do?" As soon as Xiao Sanmei, who had just got up, heard Xiao's father's angry words. Seeing that he was going to rush out of the door, she hurriedly stopped.
Xiao's father was angry when he looked at these daughters and ignored the third sisters. He pulled Xiao's mother and said to her, "When you arrive in front of those senior officials, you will cry. The more miser you cry, the better. Make it clear about the girl and son-in-law of the second sister hitting me..."
Xiao Sanmei suddenly looked at Xiao's father in disbelieve: "Are you going to sue the second sister of their case?"
Father Xiao blushed and looked like to eat people: "Isn't it true that they hit me?" My good daughter urged her man to beat her own father. Doesn't she deny us? Coinctuatedly, I can't afford such a daughter now. I want to tell those senior officials that our Xiao family has nothing to do with the dead girl. They can't be implicated by Guoxing.
"No, you can't go. Why did your brother-in-law beat you? What other face do you have to complain!" Xiao Sanmei stepped forward and tried her best to hold Xiao's father.
If it were usual, those senior officials listened to the specific reasons, but I'm afraid they would not take care of such family affairs. But now the Ji Cao presented by the second sister and brother-in-law is useless. Those senior officials must feel fooled. If they hear about the second sister and second brother-in-law hitting her father again...
If they find a reason to pull the second sister and the second brother-in-law to criticize...
Xiao Sanmei trembled and didn't dare to think about it again.
Xiao's father was so angry that he kicked Xiao Sanmei away: "I'll deal with you when I come back." These lossy goods should not be raised.
"Dad, Dad..."
Xiao's father's foot was completely powerless. Xiao Sanmei covered her kicked stomach and couldn't stand up in pain.
"Third sister, third sister, what's wrong with you..."
Hearing the movement, several other sisters saw Xiao Sanmei lying on the ground and rushing forward anxiously.
"Come on, go and tell the second sister and brother-in-law that their parents are going to sue their brother-in-law in front of the official. Hurry up..."
She didn't know that Secretary Qin had arrived in the village and wanted her brother-in-law to stop Xiao's father. Just don't let him run to the county to complain.
As soon as the fourth sisters heard this, they were immediately anxious and asked the sixth sister to stay at home. She and the fifth sister ran to Xiao Xiao's house crazily.
Xiao's father has pulled Xiao's mother to Secretary Qin.
The two of them are thin, black, embarrassed and afraid, which is completely in line with the image of the old peasants at the bottom of China.
As soon as they arrived at Secretary Qin, they knelt down, and then banged and began to kowtowed to Secretary Qin.
"Fan, fellow villagers, what are you doing? Get up quickly, get up quickly..." Secretary Qin was stunned at first and immediately pulled them after reacting.
"...Leader, Ji Ji Cao's story was presented by his second sister and his man. He and I don't know it at all. It's none of our Xiao family. She had previously urged his man to beat me and said he didn't recognize our old couple. We don't have such a daughter..."
At first, Xiao's father was afraid and trembling incomplete, but at the thought of Xiao Guoxing, he forced himself to finish the draft that had been typed several times in his heart.
Xiao's mother was crying beside her.
These two couples look so pitiful.
Hearing this, the county magistrate was angry on his face. In order to raise his impression in Secretary Qin's heart, he incarnated as a good official who was the ruler of the people: "What, Xiao Ermei and Wang Wei also beat you?" No wonder he took out the grass to deceive everyone. It turned out to be such a virtue. Hometown, don't worry, such disobedient and unfilial descendants, as public servants of the people, will definitely educate them and make them realize their mistakes.
Father Xiao trembled and thanked him repeatedly, and he looked even more pitiful. In fact, he was afraid of the future. For Xiao Guoxing, he could raise his hoe and chop people, and he could rush to the big man who usually dared not raise his head to complain. Now as soon as his reason returned, he was timid.
Secretary Qin glanced at the county magistrate lightly: "The matter of Ji Ji Cao has not been decided yet. Even if it doesn't work in the end, you can't blame those two comrades. They are also kind-hearted.
"Yes, yes, the secretary, you're right..." The county magistrate quickly changed his words.
"As for the beating of their two little comrades, let's talk about it when the investigation is clear." He is very fond of Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei, and thinks that they should not be people who beat the elderly for no reason.
Xiao's father and mother stopped Secretary Qin's complaint, and immediately spread all over the production team, and the number of onlookers gradually increased.
The Wang family and his party were also among the onlookers.
Wang Juan held the Queen Mother, listened to Xiao's father and mother, and hurriedly said, "I just said that Lao Si's dog's temper must not be flattered. Forget it when he did it in the Wang family. Now he still beat his father-in-law. Now it's good. It's trouble." I don't hide my gloating.
Yes, Wang Juan returned to her mother's house again, and she came to ask for food this time.
Because the food is getting tighter and tighter, the people who eat food supply in the city now bring home less food every month. Originally, she asked 70 kilograms of grain from the Wang family, which saved a little. In addition, Chen Jiaming's food supply, is barely enough.
But Chen Jiaming has a large family, and the couple have given birth to five children. Now it is the age of eating. Everyone can eat. Chen's mother asked their family to give everyone a little uniformity first, and then he will pay it back after this cut.
Of course, Wang Juan didn't want to, but Chen Jiaming forced her, Chen's father and mother forced her to induce her fame in the activity factory. In the end, she still distributed half of the grain to Mrs. Chen.
As soon as there was a shortage of food at home, Wang Juan panicked. Chen Jiaming also knocked around. Knowing that this was a tough battle, Wang Juan came back.
She was from the Wang family who arrived last night. Everyone was discussing Ji Ji Cao. She also knew a general idea that Ji Ji Cao was useless. Xiao and Wang Wei were in trouble. Don't mention how happy she was.
Today, I watched such a lively scene again, which was even more gloating.
Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei were also notified by the fourth sister.
Compared with their worries, Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei were not very worried. Xiao's father had determined that Ji Jicao was useless before he dared to risk the risk of suing. But they themselves know that the grass will grow up and play a great role in drought. With such a great credit, Xiao's father's complaint is nothing.
Xiao Xiao originally wanted to break away from the Xiao family. Although she said she didn't recognize it, the fact that her body was the daughter of Xiao's father and mother could not get rid of it. Now Xiao's father is so noisy, which saves her and Wang Wei.
By the time they arrived, Secretary Qin had been asked to pull Xiao's father and mother away.
Secretary Qin is now thinking about Ji Ji Cao. Seeing Xiao and Wang Wei, he asked, "I heard from Captain Wang that Ji Ji Cao hasn't started to sprout yet. Comrades, you are the first to find this kind of grass. Do you think there is hope in the future..."
Is there any hope? When Secretary Qin asked this, He Chang didn't want to give himself a hope.
"Captain, captain, the captain came out, the leader came out, and Ji Jicao spruted!!!!" As soon as Secretary Qin finished asking, a ecstatic shout suddenly came.
When everyone saw it, they saw the mason Zhang shouting while running. He ran so fast that he had a straw shoe on his feet. His face turned red with excitement, and his face was covered with tears: "It's grown out, it's grown, hahahahaha, it's spitting, there is water!!!"
