Early in the morning, Zhang Guangming inspected the green crop seedlings in the experimental base, and found no pests, and the growth was very lush.

He longed for a good harvest.

He whistled happily as he walked triumphantly back to the village.

Suddenly, Qiu Weimin, deputy secretary of the commune, came to him on a bicycle.

I saw Deputy Secretary Qiu say to him anxiously: "Secretary Li of the commune asked me to tell you that Professor Guo Aimin, a mechanical engineer who went out from your Muyehua Village, was reported and exposed by people from his unit, saying that he suspected that he had leaked the information on the new products made by the agricultural machinery he had researched to his foreign classmates.

Therefore, he was repelled to your village to participate in labor reform.

Secretary Li said that the superiors had issued an order that he must come to your village to sweep the streets, feed the livestock, and accept punishment. ”

Zhang Guangming was shocked when he heard this, his eyes widened, and he said, "What? Let Professor Guo accept such a punishment? That's not going to work. He's ......."

"Zhang Guangming, don't talk about it, because of this matter? It's already a sure thing, you just carry out the order! Deputy Secretary Qiu said in the tone of a superior ordering a subordinate.

Zhang Guangming was quite puzzled at this time, thinking about letting a returned doctor do such work, how wronged he was. But he didn't say a few words, but he was stopped by this leader.

He really couldn't help it, so he said in a somewhat regretful tone: "Let a senior mechanical engineer come to the countryside to sweep the streets and feed the livestock?"

What's going on?

Isn't this burying talent?

He's a rich and talented man! This ......"

Zhang Guangming said with an angry expression on his face, "Now agriculture is waiting to be lifted!" But...... Alas......"

"Zhang Zhishu, don't complain." Deputy Secretary Qiu said, "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." ”

"So, well, what about the thing you are talking about?

I'll go and discuss it with the village cadres now, and then make arrangements. After Qiu Weimin listened to Zhang Guangming's words, he nodded in agreement.

When Deputy Secretary Qiu was about to leave, he suddenly said: "Let me tell you one more thing, when I came, I saw that the commune officials were all holding sickles in their hands, and they were coming to cut down the spring flowers in your village again, but I forcibly stopped them.

I told them that the Chinese medicine planted on the side of the road in Muyehua Village was a flowering Chinese medicine that could cure diseases and save people.

They had to return to the commune to report the matter to the leadership.

Zhang Guangming said in a grateful tone: "It's so dangerous, on behalf of all the villagers, I sincerely express my gratitude to you!" ”

Qiu Weimin smiled happily.

Only then did he wave goodbye to Zhang Guangming.

Zhang Guangming immediately returned to the brigade office and asked the team members to hold a meeting of the cadres of the village committee.

At the meeting, the village cadres discussed it and felt that although Professor Guo's family had always lived in the provincial capital, the people of a big family in his hometown were all members of the 13th production team.

Then let him go to the thirteenth production team and find Captain Zhang Guangcai to report.

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 barren trees, and when he walked into the yard through the aisle, he saw that the yard was barren, and the wild trees and weeds were squeezing and resisting, competing to "occupy the territory".

His heart was filled with sorrow.

Zhang Guangming heard that Professor Guo had come to his home.

He hurried to Professor Guo and informed him to report to the 13th production team.

When he came to Professor Guo's gate, he saw that the door of the hole was still closed, and the rusty old lock was still locked.

He raised his hand and patted the door.

He saw Professor Guo's thin face and a dejected look.

He walked over listlessly.

When he came to the door of the cave, Zhang Guangming looked at the poor Professor Guo because he was belittled, so his facial expression was like a dead tree, and he was depressed and depressed to the extreme.

He understood Professor Guo's mood at the moment, and immediately greeted Professor Guo warmly.

Professor Guo smiled a little and responded, his words like cold ice.

He was embarrassed to say, "The lock on my street door is so rusty that I can't open it, so I can't invite you in!"

Zhang Guangming hurriedly said, "Deputy Secretary Qiu of the commune told me that Professor Guo, you are here today...... After the cadres of the brigade discussed, they want you to clean up your home today and go to our thirteenth production team tomorrow...... Job. ”

When he said the word work, he said it in a tone that was difficult to speak.

After hearing Zhang Zhishu's words, Professor Guo smiled bitterly.

"Professor Guo, what do you think?"

"Wherever you arrange me to go, I will report to the production team." Professor Guo's voice was very low.

Zhang Guangming turned around in a panic and strode home, leaving a sentence: "I'll come back later......"

Zhang Guangming came to Zhang Guangcai, the captain of the 13th team, and his wife, Li Yue'e, the vice captain, to discuss with the two of them to help Professor Guo clean up the dilapidated old hospital.

He knew that usually the two captains and deputy captains at this time were discussing how to arrange the members of the team to do farm work.

Then Captain Zhang rang the bell again.

I saw Li Yue'e leaning on a big tree at this time, while pulling the hemp rope to the soles of her shoes, while talking to Captain Zhang about what farm work the team members should do.

As soon as she saw her husband coming over in a hurry, she looked at him with puzzled eyes and asked, "Father Wenya, 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."

The commune cadres gave an order to let him come to our village to sweep the streets and let him feed the livestock.

I just came from his house.

I asked him to clean up the inside and outside of the house first, and then come to our team to report to Captain Zhang. But there was too much grass and trees in his yard, and there must have been a lot of dust in the house. I would like to ask ......"

"What? Let Professor Guo come to our village to sweep the streets? And let him feed the livestock? Zhang Guangcai and Li Yue'e didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and asked in surprise at the same time.

"Tut-tut, let a senior engineer do the work? Isn't this an eagle? Li Yue'e said with a surprised expression on her face.

"Isn't this burying talent?" Zhang Guangcai said regretfully.

Zhang Guangming then said specifically to the two of them: "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 gate was already rotten.

So I suggest that we lead the members of our production team to help him, tidy up his home, and then change the door of his house.

You see how lonely and helpless he is now!

Shouldn't we help him?

Zhang Guangming's eyes showed an expression of anxiety and requirement.

After listening to what her husband said, Li Yue'e also looked at him anxiously and said, "Then do you still need to say it?" We need to help those in need! ”

She turned her face to Zhang Guangcai again and said, "Captain Zhang, I think we have to help him, we must help him!" She said in a very cheerful and affirmative tone.

Captain Zhang squatted on the ground, holding a long cigarette pouch in his hand, smoking a cigarette, spitting out a puff of smoke like a cloud of fog and saying: "I think of how many difficult households in dilapidated houses people have helped our team when the flood rose in six or three years!"

So we really have to 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 saw him so thin just now that he was already skinny.

Therefore, I would like to discuss with you again, let's send Professor Guo some food and vegetables, as well as clothes to wear, useful pots and pans, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea and other daily necessities, and send him a few poultry, and also send him a dairy goat, and ......"

Li Yue'e knew that her husband would help her husband when he saw someone in difficulty.

She said without hesitation: "Wen Ya Dad, you say it down, you can help him if you say it!" ”

Zhang Guangming smiled happily when he heard this.

She said, "Well, Lady Dad, don't you often tell me that you need to help people in need; to help others when they are in despair; Do you want to save people in times of trouble? I listen to you.

Let's go home and pump up the flatbed truck first, and pull the stuff you said to his house. ”

"And those well-appointed gate boards of our house are also pulled for Professor Guo, let me make a gate for him, okay?"

Zhang Guangming looked at his wife and asked with a begging look.

"Okay, let's use those planks as Professor Guo too." 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." ”

Zhang Guangming hurriedly said: "I have to thank you for Professor Guo, Captain Zhang!" He bowed to Captain Zhang.

Zhang Guangcai hurriedly said, "Big brother, why are you still polite to me?" ”

As soon as the couple returned home, Zhang Guangming walked to the carport and saw that the tires were flat.

He pulled out the valve core and saw that it was rotten, so he said to his wife: "No wonder the flat tires are out of gas?" It's all rotten like this, how can you be angry? ”

Li Yue'e immediately went to the house and took out a gas pipe and a new one-inch-long valve core.

Zhang Guangming took the trachea in his wife's hand and said, "You hold it, I'll cheer it up." ”

As he spoke, he pulled down the rotten valve tendon wrapped around the valve core and threw it away.

He put a new valve rib on the valve pin and pressed it against 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, snorting and cheering, and the soft flat tires became bulging for a while.

The two of them loaded food and clothing into the car......

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 went to the neighbor's house to borrow a flat car......

Here, after Captain Zhang Guangcai rang the bell, he immediately blew the assembly trumpet again, and then squatted on the ground, waiting 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.

As soon as they saw the captain with great excitement, they said that Brother Guo Aimin must have come from the provincial capital to save his relatives!

But for some reason, he seems to be a little unhappy.

Captain Zhang said to his brothers: Where is he here to save his 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 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, and they asked:

"Captain Zhang, why did you ring the bell and blow the trumpet again, urging everyone to report quickly?

"The sun is coming out in the west?"

"Why don't you go to work in the fields?"
