Chapter 44 (I)

However, for the residents of Yahou Street, it is not only the Cen brothers who have something on their minds. While they are reflecting on their lives, there are still some people who are also struggling. Among them, Hong Daxuan, who has been smooth sailing since the Cultural Revolution, is one of them. It's just that he didn't expect that a person like him, who is good at catching the direction of the wind, would also be caught off guard by sudden events when he looked away.

On this morning, as soon as I returned to the office after attending the regular meeting of the Standing Committee of the County Revolutionary Committee, the phone on the desk rang.

"I'm Hong Daxuan, where are you?" Hong Daxuan put the transcript on the table and picked up the microphone.

"It's me. Yang Qionghua's voice came from the phone.

"When you are at work, what is the matter?" Hong Daxuan felt that this mother-in-law really didn't know anything, can't she say something at home? Even if there is something important, you can also ask Yang Shiman to come here, how can she call her office. I remember telling her once and for all time, someone had reported to him that several operators in the switchboard room of the county revolutionary committee had eavesdropped on users' calls, and he had been quietly investigating the matter, but he had not caught the current situation.

"Xiao Yong is back. "They don't seem to take his impatience seriously.

"Didn't he say he wanted to come back earlier?" Hong Daxuan felt that his wife was inexplicable: This is also worth a phone call, and he won't go home after work.

"You don't know, he also brought home his one. The other party still didn't know each other, and continued to shout on the phone.

Hearing this, Hong Daxuan was stunned at first, and then understood that the one his wife said was Xiao Yong's girlfriend in college.

"It's coming, it's coming, what's all the fuss. Thinking of this, Hong Daxuan said disapprovingly.

"It's not as simple as you think," Yang Qionghua raised her voice on the phone, "There is one thing, Xiao Yong and I are here waiting for you to make an idea." ”

What's the matter? Wait for me to make up your mind? Hong Daxuan was a little puzzled. But it was only a matter of a moment, and a thought jumped through his mind: Could it be that his son made the girl's belly bigger?

Thinking of this, Hong Daxuan couldn't sit still. He called Xu Fangzhi, explained a few words, and hurriedly walked to Yahou Street.

Sure enough, when he walked through the door, his guess turned out. In the living room, a girl with a decent appearance and figure sat lonely on the couch. In his and his wife's bedroom, Xiao Yong and his wife were nervously discussing something.

"Uncle!" the girl was very dexterous, and when she saw him, she knew who it was, and although she had a very heavy mind, she still stood up and greeted.

"Oh, you sit. Hong Daxuan smiled reluctantly and nodded.

Hearing a noise in the living room, the mother and son in the bedroom stopped talking and walked out. Seeing Hong Daxuan's obviously dissatisfied expression, Xiao Yong was very cramped, but it was the girl who sat there with her eyebrows lowered and her eyes closed.

This look, it seems that it is really relied upon, Hong Daxuan frowned. However, he thought that there was still a way to deal with this kind of thing, and it was a big deal to give the female director of the brigade who had been pestering him a sum of money like he had done in previous years. Thinking of this, he said to Yang Qionghua: "Eat first, and talk about it after dinner." ”

Yang Qionghua knew that she could only listen to him at this time, so she honestly walked to the kitchen.

Hong Daxuan waved his hand, drove Hong Xiaoyong into his room, and then talked to the girl. In just a few rounds, he knew all the circumstances and made up his mind: although this girl named Sun Lili has a good embryo, her family background is too poor to bring any help to her family, especially Xiao Yong, so it is impossible to marry Xiao Yong, as for the child in the belly, of course, it is to take it out. If she doesn't want to, then tell her that if the matter is revealed, she will only suffer in the end, because if she doesn't do well, she will cancel her school status. Of course, he will give her a little financial compensation, and he can't appear that his family is too unkind.

Lunch was quickly served. After dinner, Hong Daxuan asked Yang Qionghua to lead Sun Lili to open a room in the guest house of the County Revolutionary Committee, and told her to tell her according to her own arrangement, knowing the benefits, and after returning to the office, he called Li Wanru from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the County People's Hospital.

And so it passed. Of course, afterwards, it was indispensable to scold his son and force him to promise that he would not add to the chaos.

As for Sun Lili, I heard Yang Qionghua come back and say that she didn't agree at first, because she knew that once she took out the child, she would have nothing to do with Hong Xiaoyong. She didn't have to marry Hong Xiaoyong, but she felt that she was too much of a loss if she was like this. But under the coercion and temptation of Yang Qionghua, after some thought, she finally accepted the arrangement of Hong Daxuan and his wife. She felt that what the Hong family said was not unreasonable, the mistake was made by two people, and if she really missed the stuffing at school, it was not only Hong Xiaoyong who was punished, but she couldn't run away. It doesn't matter if he is expelled, with Hong Daxuan's father, he can still find a job after returning to Lichuan, but he is a girl from the countryside, except for her uncle who is the deputy secretary of the brigade branch, she has no background, so what should I do? It seems that the only way to do this is to beat the child and take the money and leave.

But what Hung Daxuan didn't expect was that this was just one of a series of bad news. A few days later, one afternoon, as soon as he walked into the office, the organization group of the county revolutionary committee called the group leader and told him to immediately go to Tao Jichen, head of the core group of the county party and director of the county revolutionary committee, who had something to talk to him.

Did the director talk to me, or was it notified by the organization team leader? Hearing the news, Hong Daxuan was a little suspicious. Since Director Mu, who has always valued him, was transferred to the region, Director Tao, who replaced him, had only come to the office team a few times, except for taking pictures during meetings, and all of them were for official business, which made him feel very uneasy. Who doesn't know that the office team is the eyes, ears, hands and feet of the head of the county, and without the office team, how can we write documents, hold meetings, and do things? Director Tao rarely comes, is this not obvious that he has not taken a fancy to him?

However, when he walked into Director Tao's office, the new county leader did not seem to be as he thought, but repeatedly told him to sit down and poured him a glass of water.

What's going on? Looking at the leader with a pleasant face, Hong Daxuan was a little puzzled.

"Director Hong, I have long heard that you are an old man in the county, and according to my observation, you are doing a very good job. Watching Hong Daxuan take the teacup, Director Tao pondered the words.

This should be polite words, Hong Daxuan listened in his ears and thought to himself. He felt that the following was the most important thing.

Sure enough, looking at his deferential appearance, Director Tao smiled, and was no longer polite, and said directly: "Due to the instructions of the superiors, the core group of the county party committee will soon be transferred to the county committee, so the functions of handling party affairs within the county revolutionary committee will be separated from the relevant departments and handed over to the newly established county committee organs. Originally, some leaders recommended you to come to the county party committee, but since the director of the office of the county party committee must be a member of the standing committee of the county party committee, and the district has designated all the members of the standing committee, I have no choice but to ask you to stay on the side of the county revolutionary committee and serve as the director of the office. ”

Hearing this, Hong Daxuan was first disappointed, and then very unhappy. I thought to myself that over the years I had been in the work group, I had been a saddle before and after the leader, and I had no merit and hard work, and I was only half a level apart from the Standing Committee, so why didn't I give this a send-off, isn't this too bad? When I thought that I had spent so much effort over the years, and that I was only at the level of a regular department, and that I could not stay on the side of the county party committee, I felt aggrieved.

"What do you think about this arrangement?" Director Tao looked at him quietly and said in a kind tone. In fact, the director had already seen that the "exquisite guest" in the mouth of the crowd in front of him was very unhappy with the arrangement he proposed, but for various reasons, he didn't show it directly.

"Oh, no. Hearing Director Tao ask, Hong Daxuan was taken aback and hurriedly expressed his position. He knew that when the superiors said that they should listen to the opinions of the subordinates, it was just a kind word, and if a decision was made, it would be implemented no matter how necessary, and no matter how reasonable the opinions were, it would be in vain, and it would ruin the impression in front of the leaders.

He then said: "There is no high or low level in revolutionary work, and even more so, from the first day of joining the work, we have made up our minds to serve the people well, and we cannot pick and choose when encountering problems. ”

"Okay, in the end, it's an old comrade, and his consciousness is high. When Director Tao saw him say this, he praised him, and then said: "The member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee and the director of the office arranged by the region will take up his post next week, and he will negotiate with you about the handover of the party." Before that, you should first go to Comrade Qinglin, who is in charge of the party and government groups, and has just returned from a regional meeting, to see what other instructions he has. ”

"Okay. Hong Daxuan sat on the sofa and owed, and just when he was thinking about whether to say a few words to Director Tao, the other party said to him: "I want to talk to you about this matter, I see if you will go back and start now." ”

"Oh well. Seeing that Director Tao didn't give himself a minute less, Hong Daxuan was very frustrated. However, the official level is like Mount Tai, not to mention that the other party is the head of the party's core group and the director of the revolutionary committee who is in charge of the power of a county, so he has no choice but to do what the other party says.

The floor where Director Tao's office is located is very quiet. Hung Tat Hin didn't know how he got back to the office. When he sat on the office chair that belonged to him for the time being, he was in a terrible mood, and many things that made him unhappy came to mind-

Two months ago, Director Mu of the County Revolutionary Committee, who appreciated him very much, was suddenly transferred to the region, and he thought that he would be promoted, but until now he has not been assigned a new position.

Gui Qinglin really became the deputy head of the core group of the county party and the deputy director of the county revolutionary committee, but he had no reaction to his own set, especially his wife Feng Shuhua, who always looked at him wrongly, which made him very unstable.

Under the intervention of the above, Cai Limin's position has been adjusted, although he has not been able to enter the party's core group, but he has changed from the deputy head of the production command group of the county revolutionary committee to the deputy director of the county revolutionary committee.

Cen Huanian is no longer the principal, but Yao Xianxian's life is not much better, and now the director of the school reform committee is Luo Yongding, and even Fan Yun is the deputy secretary of the party branch of the school. These two people, everyone knows that they are Cen Huanian's second general, Yang Qionghua has been fighting for so many years, and the people's primary school is still surnamed Cen.

Not long ago, there was a joke circulating in the streets, saying that "old cadres return to their posts, new cadres return to their units, and leftist personnel return to the army, and the cultural revolution is a big misunderstanding." "At the time, I thought it was just a complaint from some people, but now it seems that this is really the case!

Anyway, if you can't manage other people's affairs, you can live your own life, but you don't have to worry about your own affairs: although her daughter is obedient, she is not satisfactory in her studies; although her son's affairs are settled, she has spent a lot of money for it, and it hurts to think about it.

Yang Qionghua, this mother-in-law, has been doing it for some reason recently, her head is drooling when she sleeps on the pillow, and the back of her toes is often numb, and she looks around when she holds things in her hand, is this a stroke or a precursor to Alzheimer's disease?
