It was not that he was worried about decentralization, but that he was afraid that others would put forward opinions and affect the prestige of Liu Cunyi, who was the director of the mine, so Sun Chenghui went to work in the mine life department the day after he was discharged from the hospital. As soon as I entered the office door, my colleagues called "Sister Sun" and came up to greet Sun Chenghui. It is said that it is a miracle that the premature twins survived.

Hua Guizhi, who was sitting across from Sun Chenghui at the desk, was the first to mention decentralization at this time, and said: "Cheng Hui, why are you resting for two more days, why are you in such a hurry to go to work? Are you afraid of decentralization? No one can decentralize you! You are the wife of our mine chief Liu." ”

Sun Chenghui smiled and said, "Sister Hua, don't talk nonsense! My business has nothing to do with Liu Cunyi." ”

Statistician Xiao Wang interjected: "Yes, decentralization always has to decentralize those who don't do work, Sister Sun is advanced every year, and she is a party member, can you delegate her?! Some people often ask for sick leave and personal leave, and they always have to be helped by others to do their own things, hum, I think this kind of person should be delegated......

Hua Guizhi's face immediately changed: "Hey, I said Xiao Wang, who are you talking about?"

Xiao Wang's eyelids rolled: "Who do you care who I say? Anyway, I didn't say anything about you." Did I name you by Hua Guizhi?"

Hua Guizhi didn't give up, rushed to Xiao Wang and shouted: "I see that what you are talking about is me! The whole life department, that is, I am old and young, my husband is injured at work, there are many things at home, and I ask for more leave, can't I do it......?" I'll die with him with the ** bag!"

Sun Chenghui hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Sister Hua, you dissipate your anger, Xiao Wang didn't say anything about you." He turned around and said to Xiao Wang: "Xiao Wang, we all know the situation of Sister Hua, her husband has been injured in the well and can't do heavy work, she has a seventy old lady and three children who haven't gone to school, so there are too many difficulties!"

Hua Guizhi cried even more fiercely, choked up, and wiped her tears and snot directly on Sun Chenghui's body: "Chenghui, it's hard for you to say something fair for ......me! Don't talk about it, from now on, I'll ...... I don't take a day off ......"

After the routine political study, when he went to the No. 3 well canteen to distribute food, Hua Guizhi pulled Sun Chenghui uncertainly and asked: "Chenghui, do you know about decentralization? Who is in our section? I heard that Cory and the mine are reorganizing the list of decentralized personnel, have you ever talked about it when you go home?"

Sun Chenghui said: "I know about decentralization, but I really don't know who to decentralize, and Cunyi hasn't told me." ”

Hua Guizhi begged: "Cheng Hui, can you give a word to Mine Chief Liu? I really can't decentralize! The child's father can't go down the mine anymore since he had a work injury, the wages of the ground workers are low, and the planned grain is also small, I want to decentralize again, and I really can't live that day!"

Sun Chenghui comforted: "Sister Hua, I know that you are difficult, and I must have known that the leaders of Corey and the leaders of the mine also know." ”

Hua Guizhi said: "Cheng Hui, please talk to Mine Chief Liu, okay?"

Sun Chenghui said embarrassedly: "Sister Hua, I'm really hard to say, I have never interfered in the affairs of the mine." ”

When she said this, Sun Chenghui really didn't know that their life department had already reported Hua Guizhi to the mine as the first batch of delegated personnel during her hospitalization. And Hua Guizhi didn't know it, and was still making a basis for the rationality of his decentralization, and still quarreled with them Section Chief Liu, and was often late.

On this day, Section Chief Liu was holding a copy of "Mao's ** Anthology", and was leading everyone to study "Against Liberalism" according to the unified arrangement of the mine party committee.

Section Chief Liu stopped reading and looked at his watch: "Sister Hua, you are fourteen minutes late, I didn't wronged you, right?"

Hua Guizhi said sneeringly: "Section Chief Liu, I'm ...... My child had a high fever last night......"

Section Chief Liu said angrily: "Don't emphasize it, who of you doesn't have children? Sun Chenghui has more children than you, five, but Sun Chenghui has never been late for so many years!"

Sun Chenghui was dozing off at the time, and raised her head ignorantly: "Section Chief Liu, you called me?"

Hua Guizhi found out and immediately cried out unrelentingly: "Sun Chenghui is sleeping when he is studying Mao Xuan, why don't you criticize you as a section chief? Why are you eyeing me? Sun Chenghui's husband is the mine chief, you don't dare, don't you?"

Sun Chenghui didn't expect Hua Guizhi to burn the flames of war on her, looking at Hua Guizhi, she didn't know what to say.

Section Chief Liu said for Sun Chenghui: "Sun Chenghui just dozed off by chance while studying, and she is much better than you! She has never let others do her business, she unites comrades and respects the leadership, what about you? Don't say anything else, if you are not convinced, just bring the two of you all these years attendance sheets and let everyone see it!"

Hua Guizhi is honest.

A few days later, the matter of the decentralization of the laurel branch still came out.

A male colleague who had an opinion on Section Chief Liu quietly told Hua Guizhi that the list of decentralization of the life department had already been reported, because Hua Guizhi had a lot of family affairs and was dragged down by three children, so he couldn't go to work well.

Hua Guizhi was stunned, and without thinking about it, she compared herself to Sun Chenghui: "I have three children, so Sun Chenghui still has five children, why don't you let her go? She is the wife of the mine manager, so she can be special? No wonder I begged Sun Chenghui so much in the No. 3 well that day, Sun Chenghui didn't want to help me, it was already decided!"

The male colleague instigated and said: "Sister Hua, you have to go to the prospecting leader quickly, it will not change as soon as it is announced." ”

Hua Guizhi pulled his legs and left: "Okay, I'll go find Liu Cunyi! If not, I'll fight with him!"

That day, Liu Cunyi was wearing work clothes and walking towards the wellhead with a group of visiting guests, when the cinnamon branches scattered from his cloak suddenly rushed to Liu Cunyi and the guests: "Mine Chief Liu, you wait, I'll ask you something!"

Liu Cunyi stood down, and when he saw Hua Guizhi's angry face, he asked, "What's the matter?" Comrade Hua Guizhi, looking at your angry appearance, are you angry with my family Cheng Hui, or with your section chief Liu?"

Hua Guizhi opened his mouth and scolded: "What the fuck are you Liu Cunyi? Why are you bullying the old lady!"

Liu Cunyi was stunned: "Hua Guizhi, where did I provoke you? You are so angry? Go away, go away, I have something to find you Section Chief Liu, I have a job now, and I want to go down the well!"

Hua Guizhi stomped his feet: "You go to the well of the fart! If you don't explain the old lady's affairs, you Liu Cunyi don't want to do anything!"

Liu Cunyi was furious: "I advise you to pay attention to the influence, don't mess around here!

The two comrades in the dispatch room stepped forward to drag Hua Guizhi, but unexpectedly, Hua Guizhi rushed forward first and slapped Liu Cunyi hard: "Liu Cunyi, I will make it clear to you, I want to decentralize, delegate your wife Sun Chenghui!

Liu Cunyi covered his face and struggled back: "You...... You're really lawless!"

The visiting guests couldn't stand it anymore, and they grabbed the laurel branch with the comrades in the dispatch room.

Hua Guizhi was still jumping to his feet and making a big noise: "Liu Cunyi, listen, my husband was injured in the well and made great contributions to the country, don't fucking be a cadre without conscience......"

Liu Cunyi trembled his hands, put on his work clothes that were torn by Hua Guizhi, and said angrily: "Hua Guizhi, let me tell you clearly, whether you have been included in the decentralization list, I don't know, because I am not in charge of this matter." You can raise any opinions on this matter, but what you are doing now is not like a worker, but like a shrew! If you continue to make trouble like this, it will destroy production, and I will let the security department arrest you!"

On the same day, this matter reached the ears of Tang Ping, secretary of the party committee of the mine, and it also happened that the list of decentralized personnel of the living department and other units was to be studied in detail that night, and Tang Ping lost his temper at the party committee of the mine, slapped the table and said: "This Hua Guizhi is too unreasonable! He slapped Mine Chief Liu in front of the guests who visited outside! If such a person is not delegated, who else will we delegate? I still don't believe that she dares to hold the ** bag and die with us! I propose that the first delegated personnel of the Mine Life Section should set this flower laurel branch. ”

Bai Renjie, deputy secretary of the party committee who presided over the decentralization work, immediately agreed, and said angrily: "I agree with Secretary Tang's opinion, such a person cannot stay, Hua Guizhi dares to beat Mine Chief Liu today, and he will dare to beat us tomorrow." ”

The other mine leaders present also nodded their heads in agreement.

Only Liu Cunyi was silent, with a gloomy face, sitting alone at the other end of the conference table and smoking.

Tang Ping knocked on the table and asked, "Hey, Mine Chief Liu, why don't you speak? What is your opinion?"

Liu Cunyi extinguished the cigarette in his hand, sighed and said, "I think, it's better to give Hua Guizhi an administrative sanction, such as a major demerit or something, but don't delegate it, it's not appropriate!"

Tang Ping, Bai Renjie and the mine leaders attending the meeting were all stunned and stared at Liu Cunyi.

Liu Cunyi is neither humble nor arrogant: "I was beaten by Hua Guizhi in public, am I angry? To be honest, I am very angry. Since I Liu Cunyi joined the revolution in 1942, no one has dared to do this to me. But we still can't be rash. Before that, I didn't know that Hua Guizhi was included in the decentralization list, and if I knew, I would definitely oppose it. Why? Because Hua Guizhi's husband, Qi Shicheng, was injured in the mine, and it was not an ordinary work-related injury, it was a work-related injury caused by the blind command of the cadres in our work area, and we as leaders are responsible. ”

Section Chief Liu, who attended the meeting, said: "Mine Chief Liu, you don't know, this Hua Guizhi is usually too unconscious. ”

Liu Cunyi didn't seem to hear it, and continued his speech: "A few years ago, at the 1056 working face in the underground, a secretary of their work area asked Hua Guizhi's husband Xiao Qi to work illegally with electricity in order to grasp the output, so that Xiao Qi was electrocuted and almost died. ”

Tang Ping looked at Liu Cunyi attentively: "Oh, there is such a thing?

Liu Cunyi pointed at Bai Renjie in a flat tone: "Secretary Tang, you can ask Secretary Bai about this." ”

Bai Renjie was stunned for a moment and sank his face: "The secretary of the work area who was blindly commanded by Mine Chief Liu is me, I was recorded a major demerit, and I also made a review at the mine-wide conference......

Liu Cunyi glanced at Bai Renjie angrily, and said in a loud voice: "Secretary Bai, why didn't you talk to Secretary Tang until now? I want to ask, as the deputy secretary of the party committee who leads and presides over the decentralization of the whole mine, are you fair? As a person who has brought disaster to Hua Guizhi's family, do you have a conscience?"

Bai Renjie pushed 265 and said coldly: "What justice? What conscience? The list of Hua Guizhi was reported by the Life Section, what does it have to do with my Bai Jie? Mine Chief Liu, I also want to ask you, if our Mine Life Section does not delegate Hua Guizhi, then who should be delegated?"

The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became tense.

Liu Cunyi immediately stood up: "Who to delegate? If I mention one, let's delegate Sun Chenghui!"

Tang Ping waved his hand: "Lao Liu, this is research work, don't be angry, sit down, sit down." ”

Bai Renjie saw that Liu Cunyi had admitted the truth, and he was also busy explaining: "Mine Chief Liu, arguments are arguments, I really don't mean to delegate your Sun Chenghui, please don't misunderstand this!"

Section Chief Liu reminded: "There is no Sun Chenghui on the list reported to the mine by our life department. ”

Liu Cunyi said sullenly: "If you don't have it, add it." Didn't everyone express their stance at the last party committee meeting? To share the worries of the party and the country, the families of our leading cadres should take the lead. Now the contradictions are so big, and the work of the masses is so difficult to do, I am the mine director and a member of the Standing Committee of the party committee, and my wife Sun Chenghui is a party member.

Tang Ping was serious: "Lao Liu, this ...... Have you consulted Cheng Hui on this?"

Liu Cunyi waved his hand: "Secretary Tang, I will do my wife's work, don't worry about you and everyone." ”

Section Chief Liu was anxious: "Mine Chief Liu, but Comrade Sun Chenghui is advanced in our section every year, if even she is decentralized, most of the people in our section should be decentralized......"

Liu Cunyi said in a rough voice: "Isn't this very good? Isn't it easy for our mine party committee to do its work this time? If all the workers who have been delegated are backward workers, how can we explain to others that the decentralization is for the sake of sharing the country's worries?

Tang Ping's eyes were covered with tears, he left his seat and walked over, grabbed Liu Cunyi's hand and said, "Comrade Liu Cunyi, I'm ...... On behalf of the Jian'an Coal Mine Party Committee and on behalf of the party members and cadres of the whole mine, I would like to thank you!

Liu Cunyi smiled and said, "Secretary Tang, if you have a chance to say this, you can say it to Cheng Hui yourself, it was she who made the sacrifice, not me." ”

Unexpectedly, this incident caused an uproar at home that night.

Sun Chenghui never imagined that her husband, who was the mine manager, would be so disrespectful to herself, and before she heard Liu Cunyi finish speaking, her stomach exploded with emotion: "Liu Cunyi, you ...... What right do you have to make decisions for me? What right do you have? I am your wife, not your servant, I ...... I have the right to work! Since 1956, I have been transferred with you from Beijing to Jian'an Coal Mine, and I have ...... My Sun Chenghui's work is obvious to all! Yes, I have given birth to five children, but I have not taken a single day of personal leave for my five children, not a single day! You, who are the mine manager, can go to the attendance team to check my attendance schedule for the past six years!"

Liu Cunyi said with a smile: "Cheng Hui, I know, I know this, I have suffered you all these years." Cheng Hui, I have to tell you something from my heart, sharing worries for the party and the country is only one factor, and another factor is, I'm afraid that you are too tired! Nature and difficulties are so small, because of premature birth, you are not in good health, if you are dragged down......

Sun Chenghui said angrily: "Liu Cunyi, don't say it, I finally saw through you today! You are a feudal machismo in your bones, and you don't take me seriously at all." In the Beijing ministry's organs, you said that if you wanted to go to the grassroots coal mines, you would go to the grassroots coal mines, and you did not consult me at all; you transferred Anhui to Anhui with you; today, you actually expressed your stance on my behalf and delegated to the country! Liu Cunyi, let me ask, when have you ever considered the feelings of me, an ordinary party member, and an ordinary citizen? Do you know what it was like for me to leave the podium? Do you know that since then, I have not dared to walk in front of any school, and I am afraid that I will cry out in front of those children who go to school! For you, I have changed from a people's teacher to a canteen manager of a coal mine, and now, I can no longer change from a canteen manager to a family member for you...... This is too much!" he hugged his head and began to cry.

Liu Cunyi also shed tears, and said bitterly: "Cheng Hui, all this you are not only for me, but also for the country, and for our own country! If the country asks me to make sacrifices tomorrow, Cheng Hui, I will be the same as you, and I will definitely make sacrifices like you, even if I am broken...... Cheng Hui, today, you can say what you want, scold if you want, say me, scold me! But after you finish scolding, you still have to make this sacrifice! Because your husband Liu Cunyi is the mine manager of this large coal mine and an old party member who joined the party during the war years, and he cannot watch the country make things difficult!

Sun Chenghui wiped away her tears and looked at Liu Cunyi coldly for a long time before saying: "I'm sorry, Liu Cunyi, no matter what you say, I still don't think you have the right to speak on my behalf! Tomorrow, I will go and talk to the mine party committee and Secretary Tang Ping by myself!"

Liu Cunyi had no choice, held his head in pain and squatted on the ground under the bed.
