Chapter 204: Kneeling on the Ground
As the Chinese New Year approaches, there are many happy events, and the sound of crackling cannonballs can be heard everywhere, and the small mountain village has begun to immerse itself in the atmosphere of the New Year. The Chinese New Year is still very much worth looking forward to for children. It's a pity that Zhang Shanhai no longer has the childhood vision for the New Year.
Although they are peers, Zhang Bo is very much looking forward to the Chinese New Year. Zhang Bo is the same age as Zhang Shanhai, but the clothes on Zhang Shanhai's body have long been without patches, and the clothes on Zhang Bo's body, although they are not ragged, are always patched on the knees, elbows and other parts. In order to make the clothes more durable, many farmers patch the parts of the children's new clothes that are easy to break in advance.
"Today is the twenty-first day of the lunar month, and the New Year will be celebrated in nine days." Zhang Bo counted his fingers and said. But Zhang Bo didn't think about whether his parents could come back during the Chinese New Year today, which was a very important issue. Because this involves the question of whether there is anyone to tear cloth and dress their brothers this year.
In fact, even when Zhang Bo's parents returned home at this time, they didn't have time to sew new clothes for the brothers. Because during the Chinese New Year, the few tailors in the village were already full.
"Are you bothered?" Zhang Chu was obviously not very interested. What he was thinking in his heart was obviously more complicated than Zhang Bo's.
The two brothers still live in Zhang Shanhai's house, although the family planning people seem to have let Zhangjiashan go, and they have not come to Zhangjiashan to show up in the past few days, but the two brothers, who are already frightened birds, still dare not return to their empty home.
"Crackling, crackling, crackling," suddenly came from outside. The two brothers Zhang Bo and Zhang Chu, who were hiding in Zhang Shanhai's house, were taken aback.
Zhang Shanhai is not at home, he will play Zhaojiazhuang tomorrow, and he doesn't know what he is busy with.
Zhang Bo and Zhang Chu didn't dare to open the door, so they could only look out through the crack in the door.
I saw two well-dressed men outside. One of them, Zhang Bo and Zhang Chu, knew each other, and it was Cao Changqing, who brought people over that night.
"Brother, it's not good, it's King Cao Yan! The mountains and seas are not at home, what do you say? Did he come to us? Zhang Bo trembled with fright.
"Shit, where are you looking for someone to set off firecrackers? You're not here to apologize, are you? must have been frightened by the mountains and seas that day, these officials, they were afraid to die. They are more superstitious than our people! I must have come here to apologize. You see they brought a lot of stuff. "Zhang Chu is two years older, so he still has to be much calmer.
"So what to do?" Zhang Bo asked.
"How do I know? The two of us definitely can't go out. If we go out, won't we be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger? Let's just hide, and don't let them find out. Zhang Chu thought about it and said.
The two brothers, Zhang Bo and Zhang Chu, spoke very quietly, and there was the sound of firecrackers outside, Cao Changqing and the man who came with him were outside the small courtyard, so it was naturally impossible to hear the movement inside the door.
Naturally, Cao Changqing came with his brother-in-law Zhou Yongbing. It's not the first time Zhou Yongbing has come here, and he is very familiar with this place. Originally, Zhou Yongbing wanted Cao Changqing to come in to see if Zhang Shanhai was at home, but Cao Changqing was worried that he would be thrown out like that night, so as soon as he walked to the door, he didn't care if Zhang Shanhai was at home or not, and lit the firecrackers first.
"What are you anxious about? If he's not at home, what's the use of you setting off firecrackers? Zhou Yongbing said.
"Brother-in-law, it's okay. I came with several firecrackers. Aren't I afraid that as soon as I walk in, I will throw it out and not even see my face? Cao Changqing cautiously looked at Zhang Shanhai's house from the outside of the courtyard.
"I said since you are so cowardly, why are you provoking him?" Zhou Yongbing glanced at Cao Changqing helplessly.
"Didn't I know at the time? Besides, you didn't warn me before. Cao Changqing said.
"Forget it. You go in first and see if Shanhai is at home. If he's at home, you don't care so much, kneel in front of him first. If he doesn't forgive you, you won't get up on the ground. Zhou Yongbing said.
Cao Changqing was very embarrassed, "Brother-in-law, isn't this an impact, right?" I'm also a leading cadre anyway, if I kneel down to a common person, how will I do my work in the future? ”
"You know how to engage in women. You're not even a deputy section, you're a fart leading cadre. If you're tired of being crooked, I don't bother to care about you. Zhou Yongbing scolded.
"I'm a dog, and so is my sister. Do you dare to go to my house and scold your father-in-law like this? Cao Changqing said.
Zhou Yongbing couldn't cry or laugh, and kicked Cao Changqing in with one kick.
Cao Changqing was miserable by Zhang Shanhai that night, as soon as he entered this small courtyard, his heart was very empty, and his feet became soft, he was kicked by Zhou Yongbing like this, staggered a few steps, and only walked to the middle of the courtyard, then knelt down, and knocked his head directly to the ground. Then hold it with both hands and lie on the ground.
Zhou Yongbing was very surprised, he didn't expect his brother-in-law to wake up and apologize so diligently. I thought that this guy was in the way of face, so he held on hard in front of himself, and when he got inside, he completely let go.
Cao Changqing also scolded secretly in his heart, "The dog said, the foot is really ruthless." I knew that I shouldn't have helped you send love letters to my sister back then. Since my sister got married, the dog has seen that my eyebrows are not eyebrows, and my nose is not a nose. begged him for half a month to give it to the director of the entire township family planning office. The dog said, the entire deputy township chief and secretary will die? ”
The two brothers Zhang Bo and Zhang Chu in the house looked fresh, and Cao Changqing said that every time he brought someone to the village to engage in family planning, he was so angry. That guy, as soon as he came in, looked like a gentleman. Zhao Qigao's dog-called Han Jian led them over, and it was a realistic version of the devil who entered the village. But I didn't expect that as soon as this Taijun came in today, he knelt on the ground and prepared to disembowel. Didn't you put the ending in the front?
"Brother, which play is King Cao Yan's dog?" Zhang Bo asked in a low voice, his eyes staring out through the crack in the door.
"I know. Is this dog saying that his brain is in water? Zhang Chu wondered.
Such a big movement at the door of Zhang Shanhai's house naturally quickly let the neighbors around him find out. It didn't take long for someone to poke their heads out and take a look.
"Uncle Yi Cheng, your house has a guest! Hey, it seems to be Secretary Zhou. Uh, no, it's County Magistrate Zhou. ”
Zhou Yongbing is in Biyun Township, the original Biyun Commune has worked for many years, and Zhang Shanhai's family has also been here many times, so the people around him know Zhou Yongbing.
After a while, Zhang Yicheng walked over, looked at Zhou Yongbing, and said with a smile, "County Magistrate Zhou is here." Come inside and sit down and have a cup of tea. ”
"Uncle Zhang, if you shout like this, I won't dare to come to the door in the future. You look down on me too much! If you look up to me, call me a brave soldier. Zhou Yongbing said.
Zhang Yicheng took out a pack of Chinese cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Zhou Yongbing, "Okay, Yongbing, let's smoke first." ”
Zhou Yongbing hurriedly continued, and said with a smile, "Oh, it's a good cigarette, the old man smokes a good cigarette!" ”
"This was brought back by the mountains and seas. I don't know what it is. If you want me to say, it's not as good as the dry tobacco I made myself. Zhang Yicheng said.
"It's a good smoke. Mountains and seas are really filial to you. What about mountains and seas? Zhou Yongbing asked.
"As soon as this boy came back, he ran out every day, and he couldn't be idle. Last time, wasn't your aunt sick and hospitalized, didn't their family of three come back? He contracted the lime plant of the brigade. In the past few days, I have been running to Stone Mountain every day. Zhang Yicheng is still accustomed to referring to the village as a brigade.
"Shanhai is not at home?" Zhou Yongbing said. Zhou Yongbing then remembered that there was still one kneeling in the courtyard. The probe took a look, and Cao Changqing was still kneeling there honestly.
"yes, I ate and ran out. By the way, how did you know that Shanhai was back? Zhang Yicheng asked.
"Hey, it's not my mother-in-law's brother yet. My brother-in-law, oh, it's Cao Changqing, the director of the township family planning office, I came back yesterday and heard that this kid ran into the house in Yunyang. When I asked, I learned that the mountains and seas had returned. This kid has gone too far, and there are many things that I don't know, and the county doesn't know. It's been done too much. When I go back, I will make a good report to the county party committee and county government, and we should attach importance to family planning, but we must also pay attention to ways and means. Thankfully, the bastard hasn't done anything undoable. I specially brought him to apologize to Shanhai today. Then go to a house that has been demolished. Lose some money to others. Zhou Yongbing said.
"Well, that's how it should be done. If this is the case, then who will the Communist Party serve in the future? Zhang Yicheng still likes to smoke his big cigarette butt, take a sip, and a puff of white smoke comes out of the nose of the pipe.
"That Zhang Zhizhan family, what is he going to do with it? The two of them ran out, it's almost the New Year, and they don't dare to come back. Speaking of this, Zhang Yicheng lowered his voice, "The two boys of their family are still hiding in Yunyang's house." Don't you say it's a work of iniquity? ”
"That's that, that's. So be it. I'll tell Changqing later, don't move people before the New Year, let others finish the New Year first, and how to deal with it in the future. However, it is not allowed to demolish houses, move things, and still less destroy people's property. Zhou Yongbing said.
"That's good, that's good. Then I'll ask Zhou Bo to call Shanhai back, and then come to my house to drink rice wine before leaving, you know, Shanhai is back, and game is always indispensable. Zhang Yicheng said.
"Hahaha, Uncle Zhang, I won't leave if I have game, this meal must be eaten." Zhou Yongbing said with a smile.
Zhou Yongbing and Zhang Shanhai got acquainted because of wild meat. Since then, Zhou Yongbing's official career has taken a complete turn. Speaking of which, I really want to thank Zhang Shanhai for the game.
"Changqing, don't be there. Get up! Shanhai hasn't come home yet, and when he comes back, you're admitting your mistakes to him. Zhou Yongbing said to Cao Changqing.
"How good is this, Cadre Cao, why are you so polite! Hurry up. Zhang Yicheng found out that there was actually a person kneeling in the courtyard of Zhang Shanhai's house. This person turned out to be the frightened King Cao Yan of Biyun Township.
Cao Changqing knelt there and didn't move.
These two people thought that Cao Changqing had a resolute attitude, and Zhang Shanhai didn't come back, so they kept kneeling down Zhang Shanhai when he came back. Who knew that this guy was kneeling and his feet were numb, and he couldn't move at all when he thought about it at this time.
