Chapter 31 Retreat to the Countryside
Chapter 31 Rejection to the countryside
【1】
Early in the morning, Zhang Guangming was selecting strong crop seedlings at the experimental base and preparing them to be used as seedlings to strengthen protection. Qiu Weimin, deputy secretary of the commune, rode a bicycle to him and said to Zhang Guangming with an anxious expression: "Secretary Li of the commune asked me to tell you that Professor Guo Aimin, who was originally from Muyehua Village, was reported and exposed by people in his unit, saying that he suspected that he had leaked the information of new products made by industrial machinery to his foreign classmates. Therefore he was repelled to your village. Secretary Li said that the superiors had issued an order to let him come to your village to sweep the streets, feed the livestock, and accept labor reform. ”
When Zhang Guangming heard this, his face was shocked, his eyes widened, and he said, "What?"
"Zhang Guangming, what about this matter? It's already a sure thing, so you can carry out the order!" Deputy Secretary Qiu said in the tone of a superior ordering a subordinate.
Zhang Guangming, who was fond of fighting, was quite puzzled at this time, and said in a somewhat regretful tone: "Let a senior mechanical engineer come to the countryside to sweep the streets and feed the livestock? What is the matter? Isn't this burying talent? He is a talented ......man who is rich in learning!" He said again with an angry expression on his face, "Now the country is waiting to be lifted! But ...... Alas......"
"Zhang Zhishu, don't complain anymore. Secretary Li said that Guo Aimin will come to your village in the morning, and he asked you to make arrangements, and it is more appropriate to send Guo Aimin to which production team is more appropriate, and it is up to your village cadres to decide. Deputy Secretary Qiu said.
"Okay, what about what you are talking about? I will discuss it with the village cadres and then make arrangements. Qiu Weimin nodded and took his leave.
Zhang Guangming immediately convened a meeting of cadres of the village committee. At the meeting, the village cadres discussed, although Professor Guo's family has always lived in the provincial capital, the people of a large family in his hometown have all belonged to the 13th production team. Then let him report to the thirteenth production team as well. In this way, Professor Guo Aimin officially became a member of the 13th production team.

When Professor Guo came to his home, he first saw a hole in the door of his house. He stepped forward on one leg first, then reached in his head, then squeezed in sideways. He saw that the aisle was overgrown with weeds, and when he walked into the yard, he saw that the yard was barren, and the wild trees and weeds were squeezing and resisting, competing to "occupy the territory". He looked up again at the roof, which was broken and the roof had collapsed. His heart was filled with sorrow.
Zhang Guangming heard that Professor Guo came early in the morning. He hurried to Professor Guo and informed him to report to the 13th production team. When he arrived at Professor Guo's gate, he saw that the door was still closed, and the rusty old lock was still locked. Zhang Guangming raised his hand and patted the street door. Professor Guo didn't say anything, he walked over listlessly with a thin face. Zhang Guangming looked carefully in the hole and saw that Professor Guo had been belittled, so his facial expression was like a dead ash of a tree, and his spirit was extremely depressed. Zhang Guangming understands the professor's mood at the moment. He immediately greeted the Ph.D., who had studied abroad, warmly. Professor Guo responded, his words like a cube of cooled ice. Professor Guo said that the street door of my house could not be opened......
Zhang Guangming said, "The deputy secretary of the commune told me that you are here today...... After the cadres of the brigade discussed, they wanted you to work in our thirteenth production team. Zhang Guangming said the word work, and Professor Guo smiled bitterly. "Professor Guo, what do you think?" he saw that Professor Guo was dressed in shabby clothes and looked dejected.
"Wherever you arrange me to go, I will report to the production team. His voice was very deep. Zhang Zhishu turned around and left after hearing this, leaving a sentence, "I'll come back later......"

Zhang Zhishu knew that as soon as his wife heard the assembly horn of her production team sound, she was the first to report to the production team. At this time, Zhang Guangming heard the horn of his production team "Dududu" sounding, so he walked to the meeting place in a panic. He found the captain Zhang Guangcai and the deputy captain Li Yue'e to discuss Professor Guo's affairs with the two. The deputy captain Li Yue'e was leaning on a big tree, and was pulling the hemp rope to put the soles of her shoes, and when she saw her husband coming over in a hurry, she said rarely: "Wen Ya Dad, why are you here?"
Zhang Guangming hurriedly said: "Captain Zhang, Wen Yaniang, let me discuss with the two of you team cadres, Professor Guo Aimin has been sent to our village, and the commune has ordered him to come to our village to sweep the streets and let him feed the livestock." I just came from his house. ”
"What? Let Professor Guo come to our village to sweep the streets and feed the livestock?" Zhang Guangcai and Li Yue'e asked in surprise at the same time.
"Tut-tut, let a senior engineer do this work? Isn't this an eagle?" said Li Yue'e with a surprised expression on her face.
"Isn't this burying talent?" Zhang Guangcai lamented.
Zhang Guangming then said to the two: "You also know that his weeds have grown madly to the height of one person, and the miscellaneous trees have grown even taller. The dust in the house must have accumulated a thick pile, and the doors and windows were already rotten. The roof tiles of his house fell off, half cut off. The top has collapsed. So I suggest that we lead the members of our production team to help him, tidy up his home, and repair his house. You see how lonely and helpless he is now! Should we help him?" Zhang Guangming's eyes showed a look of anxiety and pleading.
After listening to her husband's words, Li Yue'e also looked at her husband anxiously and said, "Then do you need to talk about it, we have to help people in need!" She turned her face to Zhang Guangcai and said, "Captain Zhang, I think we have to help him, we must help him!" she said in a very cheerful tone.
Captain Zhang squatted on the ground, holding a long cigarette pouch in his hand, smoking a cigarette, and spit out a puff of smoke like a cloud of fog and said: "I thought about it for a while, let's mobilize the members of our production team to help Professor Guo repair his house inside and out." ”
Zhang Guangming immediately looked at his wife with joyful eyes and said, "Wen Yaniang, I want to discuss with you again, let's give Professor Guo a few chickens, a few ducks, a few geese, and a dairy goat, I see that he is already emaciated." There are also those ...... our family" Li Yue'e knows that her husband will help anyone in difficulty when he sees him.
Before she could finish speaking, she said without hesitation: "Wen Ya Dad, if you say it, you can help him as much as you say!" Deputy Captain Li said, "Well, Wen Ya Dad, don't you often tell me: You want to help people in need, you need to help people when they are in need, you want to help people when they are in need? Let's go home and pump up the flatbed truck first, and pull the stuff you said to his house. ”
"And the blue tiles that we have burned will also be pulled for Professor Guo. Zhang Guangming looked at his wife and said.
"Okay, those blue tiles can also be used by Professor Guo. Li Yue'e said with a grin.
"Brother and sister, you are really generous!" Zhang Guangcai praised and said, "I also have to mobilize everyone to help him, after all, he is a member of our production team." ”
Zhang Guangming hurriedly said, "I have to thank you for Professor Guo, third brother!" He bowed to Captain Zhang.
Zhang Guangcai hurriedly said, "Big brother, what are you still polite to me?"
As soon as the couple got home, they saw that the tires were flat, and Li Yue'e pulled out the valve core and saw that it was rotten, so she said, "No wonder? She immediately went into the house and pulled out a gas pipe and a new one-inch-long valve core.
Zhang Guangming took the trachea from his wife's hand and said, "You hold it, I'll cheer it up." With that, he pulled out the old valve core first, pulled off the rotten valve rib wrapped around the valve core, and pressed a new valve rib on the valve pin and pressed it on the tire. Li Yue'e bent down and pressed the valve core with one hand, and pressed the line of the air tube with the other hand. Zhang Guangming held the trachea with both hands and snorted, and the soft flat tires became bulging for a while. The two of them loaded chickens, ducks, and geese into the car. And also......
Zhang Guangming made the old man pick up the flat car, put the strap on his shoulder, bent down and walked forward, and his wife pushed forward hard behind. The couple hurried to the production team and the team leader to mobilize the members to help at the professor's house.

Here, after Captain Zhang Guangcai blew the assembly number again, he squatted on the ground and waited for the members who came to gather. The members of the thirteenth team walked out of their homes one after another.
Over there, Guo Aidang and Guo Aiguo also came over at this time, and when they saw the captain very excitedly, they said that my brother Guo Aimin must have come from the provincial capital to save his relatives! But I don't know why, he seems to be a little unhappy.
Captain Zhang said to the brothers, "Where is the province of relatives? He was sent to our village to sweep the streets and feed the livestock." They were taken aback and hurriedly asked what was going on? Captain Zhang truthfully told the brothers what happened to Professor Guo Aimin. They were shocked when they heard this.
After all the members of the thirteenth team arrived, Captain Zhang said loudly: "What about today, let's not go to work in the fields!" The members of the club looked at this model captain who had always been positive with surprised eyes, and their eyes revealed one question after another: "Captain Zhang, why did you quickly blow the trumpet and urge everyone to come and report quickly? The sun came out in the west? Why don't you go to work in the fields?"
"Professor Guo Aimin is back today!" Guo Aishan also said excitedly, "I almost didn't recognize him just now." ”
His son Guo Tiedan said: "I haven't seen each other for more than 40 years!
The members of the club were indignant in their hearts: "It turns out that he is the pride of the whole village, but now he is suffering such a tribulation!"
When Captain Zhang said that the professor had been removed from his post and sent to our village to sweep the streets and feed the animals, he was all shocked. Most of the people were very sympathetic to the professor's misfortune, and even more regretful and saddened him, and a few people were worried that he would bring trouble to the village when he came to the village. Captain Zhang began to mobilize everyone to help repair the roof of the professor's house, remove weeds, cut down trees, replace the doors and windows of the old house, and clean the house. Most of them expressed their willingness to help the professor's family. There are also people who keep their heads down and don't say a word. At this moment, Zhang Guangming ran over panting and said, "I have a very urgent matter, and I want to ask the members of our team for help!"
Li Yue'e also came to her and said, "Wen Ya's father and I thought, because Professor Guo Aimin and we are on a team, so we have to help him!"
"The new branch secretary and I want to discuss with everyone to see who is willing to help, please stay, and if you don't want to help, go home and get a hoe to remove grass in the field. Captain Zhang said to everyone. But at this time, a few young men who were called by the villagers: "Bring out hats, dog materials, get on the train, don't need tickets", but they made a lot of nonsense. Instead, they said words that were incomprehensible to those present, and it seemed that a "battle" was about to take place.
