Chapter 22: I Decide to Be on Your Side

To be honest, Zhang Jianzhong didn't think that the people in Shanwei Village were extremely evil, although they were stunned and vicious, they were not incorrigible, and even if Zhang Jianzhong wanted to run, he might not be able to run away, so he no longer stopped the village chief from taking Zhang Jianzhong home for dinner.

The village chief's house is not far from the ancestral hall, there is a small courtyard in front of the house, a pomegranate tree is planted, and a round stone table and several stone benches are built under the tree.

The two sat down on the stone bench, and the village chief shouted into the house, "We are back." ”

Someone in the room answered, and after a while, a woman came out with a tray carrying a teapot and a teacup. Zhang Jian was puzzled for a while, wondering if the woman was the village chief's wife or his daughter? Although the village chief looks very manly, but after all, he is a countryman, his face is tanned by the sun, and he is holding an open cup at this time, wiping the sweat on his face with the corner of his shirt from time to time, and the woman seems to be only thirty years old, white and beautiful, if he didn't see her in this village, Zhang Jianzhong didn't believe that she was a country woman at all.

"My wife." The village chief said proudly.

Whether it is a cadre from the town or the county, the first time he goes to Shanwei Village, the village chief will bring people to his family, not the time to eat, just drink tea in the yard, saying that he is talking about work while drinking tea, the real purpose is to let people see his wife, let people marvel at his good fortune.

"This is Comrade Xiao Zhang from the county."

The woman smiled at Zhang Jianzhong, and the corners of her mouth sank into two deep wine vortices, which surprised Zhang Jianzhong even more.

"Country woman, you can't take it."

"Won't it?" Zhang Jianzhong still couldn't help blurting out.

The village chief laughed and said, "Now it's a country woman." She followed me and married me a redneck, and she has been a country woman for more than 20 years. ”

Zhang Jianzhong somewhat understood that it should be a woman who was brought back from a big city when the village chief served as a soldier. In the year when the village chief was a soldier, he went to North Korea to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and was injured once and lived in a North Korean family, and after the injury was healed, he "abducted" the daughter of that family back to China.

Zhang Jianzhong was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, it has really been more than 20 years since he resisted US aggression and aided Korea, and he couldn't tell her actual age at all. At that time, it wouldn't be just a ten-year-old or eight-year-old girl, would it?

"It's not small, it's not small, I'm not much older than her."

Zhang Jianzhong thought that she was at least ten or eight years older, and at that time, she was at most fifteen or sixteen years old.

"At that time, it was not allowed to fall in love, let alone with the Korean brothers and sisters of the fraternal federation, so I violated discipline and was demobilized and returned to the countryside as soon as I returned home."

The village chief was still complacent, not at all showing the slightest regret for being sent back to his hometown for violating discipline and ruining his future, and he laughed proudly.

"Foreign women are different, I don't spoil her much, she is the same as the women in the village, she does farm work, but her skin is so white that the sun can't tan, the sea breeze doesn't blow rough, many new daughters-in-law in the village can't compare with her, I go to the town with her, and people say she is my daughter."

The village chief was very interested, and said a lot, saying that at the beginning, his wife went home with him, and they were all envious of their army leaders! said that the chief dealt with his demobilization because he was too jealous. He said, "Man! There are gains and losses, and in some places you get more than others, and in some places you have to lose. For example, if he continues to work in the army, he will definitely be promoted, and if he returns to the locality, he will be transferred to another job and not demobilized, at least he will be a cadre in the town or something. However, thinking that even though he was a cadre, he would marry a local girl as his wife, and he would prefer to marry his current wife and return to the countryside to fish and farm.

In the end, he said, this wife is enough for his life!

After all, Zhang Jianzhong is young and doesn't talk much about women, so the village chief seems to have a lot to say, and there is a sense that he can't talk about it.

After dinner, it was getting dark, and they were still sitting on the stone bench chatting, and they saw the village chief's wife teaching her daughter to dance, and the daughter was about ten years old, and she looked like her mother, with fine skin and tender meat, and two deep wine vortices on her cheeks.

The village chief said, "Forget it today!" ”

The wife said, "You also know that you can't leave your hands on this day." If you don't practice for a day, your hands and feet will be rusty. ”

She speaks a vernacular vernacular.

The daughter said, "I've been practicing in the morning. ”

"I can't stop this morning or night."

The village chief said, "What's the use of dancing and singing? It's better to teach her a few punches and kicks. ”

The wife said, "Then there are girls who practice martial arts?" ”

"Why not? There were countless female heroes in ancient China. ”

"Anyway, she just can't learn from you, and she can't be a heroine."

The wife was angry, but the village chief immediately became distempered at all, and said, "Listen to you, listen to you." He said to Zhang Jianzhong, women! You can't mess with her, in the end, it's always yourself who suffers, and in the end, if you want to make up for her, she ignores you. ”

Say so, just "hey" laugh.

This time, Zhang Jianzhong still didn't mean to talk to him in that direction, so the village chief had to change the topic and said: "Let's ignore them, let's drink our tea and talk about us." ”

He asked Zhang Jianzhong about some things in the city, and asked Zhang Jianzhong what he was doing in the border town. Knowing that Zhang Jianzhong had come to sum up his rural work experience, he immediately became angry again and said, "What is the good experience of the border town?" Summing up their experience and letting all towns learn from them, the county's rural work will not be chaotic. ”

Zhang Jianzhong found an opportunity and asked the village chief: "Why did you go to the town government?" Why didn't the town party secretary come out to meet them?

The village chief told him that the ancestors of Shanwei Village have lived here for generations, and the mountains and water here are all from Shanwei Village, and over the years it has also formed a tacit understanding with neighboring villages, and there is a very clear dividing line, such as the beach, counting from the foot of the mountain, ten kilometers to the east. There happened to be a reef thicket there, and when the tide was high, the sea was over the top, and when the tide was low, the whole reef was exposed. However, this time the land was redivided, and the town government shortened the area of their beach to less than five kilometers, and the land along the way was also assigned to another village.

It turned out that the village had no sea area at all, nested in a mountain nest, dozens of families lived by ploughing the fields, and whoever did not work hard would not want to be able to eat a full stomach, and now, all at once, five kilometers of sea water area were assigned to them, including the mountain and forest land along the way, as long as they contracted out these sea water area mountain forest land, and sat there without doing anything, it was enough to be a local tyrant and inferior gentry.

The village chief said: "More importantly, the relationship between the village and the secretary of the town party committee. It's his wife's maiden family, his eldest uncle and uncle, and a lot of cousins and cousins are lazy and lazy. What is it? This is a use of power for personal gain, cutting our flesh to support his three relatives and six relatives. ”
