Chapter Twenty-Three: Confusion

After dinner, Hao Lihua put away the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen outside to wash, Hao Qinghong took Hao Liqiu to go out for a walk and enjoy the coolness, leaving the room to Ma Yuping.

Hao Jianjun sat down at the dinner table with his head down, Ma Yupan moved to his side, stretched out his hand to gently touch his cheek, and said distressedly: "Does it still hurt?" ”

Hao Jianjun shook his head. Ma Yuping regretted: "Mom was confused just now, hit you in the face, and it hurt in my heart." ”

Hao Jianjun: "Mom, you don't have to worry, I know how to protect myself." ”

Ma Yuping: "Jianjun, if something happens, it's a moment, don't be careless." ”

Hao Jianjun: "Mom, they are all classmates in the same class, and you know them all." ”

Ma Yuping: "Are you tired of going to climb the mountain today?" ”

Hao Jianjun happily: "I'm not tired at all, the wind on the mountain is very strong and cool, we sit on the top of the mountain and blow the wind, and we don't want to go down." ”

Ma Yuping: "If you want to go out to play in the future, you must come back on time, and don't let the adults be anxious." ”

Hao Jianjun: "Mom, can I go out with my classmates in the future?" ”

Ma Yuping: "Yes, but you have to tell your mother who to go with, where to go, and when to go home." ”

Hao Jianjun nodded.

Hao Jianjun went to middle school not long ago, encountered the movement, the factory children's school was not so intense, but it was also not class, all day long posters held meetings, respected teachers were criticized, he couldn't figure out what was going on, many of the senior classmates made an appointment to pick up the train to Beijing, Hao Jianjun was young, and Ma Yuping was strictly guarded and not allowed to run around, so he stayed at home, occasionally went out to play with his classmates, and had to rush home at the time required by his mother.

The factory was even stricter, production was almost paralyzed, and Hao Qinghong and his wife were people who did their duty and did not participate in any faction.

The couple was very puzzled in private, why the conscientious cadres were criticized, and those who were usually hung up turned upside down overnight, holding the leaders to hold a criticism meeting and forcing them to write inspections.

For example, Wu Shouliang, who came from C City with them and is Hao Liqiu's godfather, is educated, proactive, down-to-earth, joined the party in his early years, and began to work as a maintenance worker in the weaving workshop maintenance machine, from the team leader to the workshop director, Ma Yuping followed him in a workshop, watched him work hard step by step, and suddenly he was knocked down, and he had to explain such and such mistakes.

Among the four of them who have a very good relationship, Wu Shouliang is the most assertive and a leader, and he usually listens to him for everything.

Wu Shouliang was in trouble, Hao Qinghong and the three of them naturally did not immediately clear up the relationship like others, and they avoided them when they met on the road, they went to see Wu Shouliang together and drank with him.

Wu Shouliang was very moved, others are upright, do not show favoritism, thinking that he has not used the power in his hands to do any private affairs for his brothers when he is a leader, his wife Lao Cai's wife and Ma Yuping are under him, Ma Yuping is not to say, Lao Cai's wife is not in good health, and has always wanted to change to an easy job, he is afraid that others will gossip and will not help, and he is very upset, but they are not dissatisfied.

Wu Shouliang's wife brought the food up, and complained on the side, saying that Wu Shouliang was too honest to be rectified, Wu Shouliang said angrily: "What do women know, what do you intervene when men speak." ”

Wu glared at Wu Shouliang fiercely, turned around and left.

Wu Shouliang took the wine glass and drank it all, Hao Qinghong knew that he was uncomfortable, so they accompanied him silently, and they didn't know how to persuade him.

Wu Shouliang took the wine glass, filled it for himself first, and then filled it for Hao Qinghong in turn, picked up the wine glass, and said: "Thank you for coming to see me, the situation is complicated now, our brotherly friendship is in my heart, don't come in the future, I'm afraid that it will implicate you and be bad for you." ”

Hao Qinghong put down the wine glass they were holding, and Hao Qinghong was dissatisfied: "Brother Wu, what are these words, you are the leader and we have not colluded to do anything sorry for the factory, what about being together, I don't believe that the gang will arrest us and criticize us." ”

Among the four people, Lao Cai's temper was the largest, and he slapped the table: "We are the elders of the factory, can the factory operate normally without us?" Lao Tzu will ask those rebel guys tomorrow, what mistake did you Lao Wu make? ”

Wu Shouliang: "Lao Cai, now it's a mess, they have all lost their minds, where to explain clearly, it will only get more and more complicated." ”

Lao Cai: "Then you were wronged like this?" ”

Wu Shouliang: "I believe in the organization, and things will always come to light one day." ”

Lao Li said: "But you can't just stop dealing with us." ”

Hao Qinghong: "Lao Wu, don't have any worries, we are all people who rely on our ability to eat, no matter who is in power, we need people to do things." ”

Lao Cai: "Brother Qinghong is right, those dog days don't dare to move a finger of us." ”

Lao Li, who is more realistic, said: "It's not a big deal, Lao Wu, it's a big deal to do the old business again, so that our brothers will have more time to drink and play cards together." ”

Wu Shouliang Wu agreed: "Yes." ”

Wu Shouliang raised his glass, and the four wine glasses touched together.

In order to relieve the depression in Wu Shouliang's heart, Hao Qinghong often took her little daughter over to sit, Hao Liqiu called her godfather delicately, Wu Shouliang held her in his arms, and happily: "With my goddaughter, all the worries are swept away." ”
