Zhou Lanxiang went to the classroom of the primary school at nine o'clock the next morning, and there were already more than 30 women waiting for class.

The desks in the classroom have been moved out, because a few days ago there were many people, everyone crowded on the benches to listen to the lectures, now there are fewer people, but no one is holding a pen and paper to practice writing.

A pencil costs two cents, a primary school student's writing checkbook costs three cents, and five cents is enough to buy a box of matches and half a catty of salt!

Cadre Zhang said no? Then you can buy one set for each of us! We don't have any money anyway!

In the end, Zhang Hong and Chen Meilan stood on the podium to give a lecture, and a group of women below took the soles of their shoes to stab and fly the needle.

Sister Fangya, Aunt Zhao and Zhou Lanxiang went in together, and Sister-in-law Daleng hurriedly asked them to come over and sit with her, "Why is Xiaoxiang here too?" You read the newspaper so smoothly that you can be a teacher for us, why are you here? ”

Zhou Lanxiang looked at Chen Meilan, who was staring at her nervously, and smiled at the women who came over, "Comrade Zhang said that I haven't been to school for a day, and I have to come to the literacy class to participate in re-education, saying that it is a political task. ”

The big guy buzzed and started talking, can you still bring this? If you force them to come who are illiterate, if you don't come to deduct your work points, why do you have to come too? What's this called?

Chen Meilan slammed the stove hook and glared at Zhou Lanxiang viciously, "Don't talk nonsense!" If it causes bad effects, you and Zhou Qingshan will wait! ”

Zhou Lanxiang really didn't have any feelings for Chen Meilan before, in her heart she was an ignorant little girl, and she had to feel panicked when she was a few years older when she did those things. But now that she has begun to threaten herself with Xiaoshan's studies, then she can no longer tolerate her as an ignorant little girl.

Zhou Lanxiang stood up, and there was no smile on her face, "Chen Meilan, why did I say it wrong?" Yesterday, Comrade Zhang personally said to me that coming to the literacy class is a political task, did she say it wrong or did I say it wrong? ”

Chen Meilan looked at the women around her with a weak heart, Sister Fang Ya and Aunt Zhao whispered something to the women around them, everyone passed them on one by one, and the gaze that looked at Chen Meilan was very unkind.

Chen Meilan panicked for a while, Comrade Zhang couldn't stay here for a few months, but her home was in Mopantun, and if she really offended people, she would definitely have no good fruit to eat in the future.

When she went home last night, her mother knew that she and Comrade Zhang went to find Zhou Lanxiang and Han Liguo's daughter-in-law Jiang Shuzhen, so she scolded her fiercely, she felt that her mother had a sentence that was very right, if this matter was spread, she would want to enter the commune as a cadre in the future, and they might not be able to pass the mass review of this level!

Chen Meilan thought about her mother's instructions this morning, and she didn't dare to be angry with Zhou Lanxiang in front of everyone, so she ran to the podium and knocked on the blackboard and shouted down, "Don't make noise!" It's all gone! Class! ”

But the eyes of everyone looking at her still made her feel very uncomfortable, and after teaching a few words, she went to Zhang Hong, who was eating roasted sweet potatoes at the team headquarters, to come over and continue to teach.

Of course, I didn't forget to tell Zhou Lanxiang!

She said it was a political task to come to the literacy class! And say it in front of everyone! If this has a negative effect, there will be even fewer people in literacy classes in the future! ”

Zhang Hong's waist straightened suddenly, and the person also came to the spirit.

Yesterday from Zhou Lanxiang's house, she has been hungry and panicked, came back to eat several roasted sweet potatoes are not a problem, the brigade headquarters has a stove, they can squat cadres can start their own fire or partner in the villager's house in the tunzi, she thinks the farmer's house is dirty, so she starts a fire to cook.

Later, she was so hungry that she got up in the middle of the night and cooked herself a bowl of gnocchi soup, but the clear soup was so watery that she couldn't eat it after two bites, and all in front of her were Zhou Lanxiang's pancakes!

When I woke up this morning, I was hungry and had no appetite, and I was weak enough to nest in the kitchen of the brigade and roast sweet potatoes on the stove to eat.

Hearing Chen Meilan's words, Zhang Hong's mind spun around, "Yes! Political mission! You go and give them a lesson first, and I'll write a material for the commune, no, for the county! You go first, and then visit after the class, we must get more and more students in our literacy class! ”

Zhang Hong excitedly went to write the material, and Chen Meilan could only continue to give a lecture.

She was really a little stunned and everyone looked at her, and she didn't do anything, didn't she listen to the arrangements of other higher-level cadres!

When she stood on the podium, the women should do whatever they wanted, as if she were not such a person. She felt weak in her heart, and she didn't dare to maintain order in the classroom as violently as Comrade Zhang did when he was there, so she said a few words indiscriminately and waved everyone home after an hour.

For several days, Zhou Lanxiang went to school on time every day, and came back after sitting there for an hour with needlework like everyone else.

The number of students in the literacy class has dropped from more than 30 to about 20, and the number will continue to decrease.

Chen Meilan was also absent-minded, she didn't care about anything, she left after class, and she didn't organize the women to learn the spirit of her superiors after class as she did a few days ago, and she had to listen to her "waving her arms and spitting for a while".

This is the original words of Zhao Shuhua in Qiangoutun, the one she looks down on the most is Chen Meilan, and now when she sees her, she can't wait to bite her a few bites to relieve her hatred! She even took the city cadre to their house, saying that they were military dependents, and if they did not actively participate in literacy classes, they could not play a leading role, and they would be discrediting military families.

Later, when Comrade Zhang reported the matter to the county armed forces department, and the leaders of his brother's troops came down to understand the situation, they would say that his brother could not do the ideological work of his family!

His brother is now at the critical moment to move up the next level! Their whole family is looking forward to his brother being the company commander!

Her father was frightened when he heard this, and quickly brought her here, and said that if she affected her brother's future, she would be a sinner of the old Zhao family, and he would discount her legs! Even her mother doesn't protect her anymore!

There is also Ge Hongbing's sister Ge Honghua, but she was not forced to come, but she was very active in supporting Sister Honglan's revolutionary work!

At present, most of the people in the literacy class are forced by Zhang Hong to come with "political tasks" like them, and the families of military martyrs, the families of cadres of the brigade and squad, and those with bad composition dare not come, and of course, there are also poor and timid families who are particularly afraid of deducting work points.

Zhou Lanxiang observed the situation of the literacy class for two days, and began to chat with a few people in a targeted manner, such as Zhao Shuhua, who was short-tempered and ignited on fire, such as Geng Zhishuang, who said that he couldn't hold back Jiang Shuzhen if he had something to say, and then for example, the famous martyr grandson's sister-in-law who could cry in Hougoutun.

It looks like it's all small talk, and it's not that she went to them by herself, as well as Sister Fangya, Aunt Zhao, Aunt Daleng, and a few sisters-in-law, everyone chatted while taking the soles of their shoes, and of course there would be some things about literacy classes in the parents.

For example, today Chen Meilan taught another wrong word, everyone reads cotton on the radio, and she reads NIAO (two tones) flowers! We rural people just talk about the local dialect, why does she teach like this when she is a teacher!

For example, even Cadre Zhang doesn't know how to write Galaha! Asked her if she was impatient, saying that she didn't need to learn it! She simply looked down on the peasants and didn't want to teach us!

For example, Chen Meilan, her second sister, third sister and fourth sister are all married to our team, and they haven't been to school for a day, why don't they come to the literacy class? She can't do her family's job well, and she still has the face to care about us?

……

Zhou Lanxiang always provoked the topic and let everyone take over the conversation to discuss, and in the end, everyone forgot who said it first, anyway, this is all obvious, and the eyes of the masses are bright!

The atmosphere in the literacy class became more and more tense, but Zhang Hong and Chen Meilan didn't notice that one of them was running more and more diligently to the commune, and the other didn't know what they were thinking, and their minds were becoming less and less focused on it.

It wasn't until a few days later that news suddenly came that the literacy class of their Red Flag Brigade had been rated as a model of the whole commune, and that the cadres of the whole commune were going to come to study, and even the county was going to come to inspect it.

At the end of school that day, Zhang Hong finally showed up and came to assign a "political task" to everyone: "When we go back today, everyone will mobilize the women around them, five people per person, and five people must be brought to class tomorrow, or they will not complete the task!" If it affects the revolutionary work, don't blame me for being unkind! ”

You're welcome? Most of the people sitting here have been threatened by her, and needless to say, everyone knows about it.

After Zhang Hong finished speaking, she took Chen Meilan away with her head held high, she was not afraid that these people would be disobedient, they all had handles in her hands one by one!

Shuzhen slammed the sole of her hand on the blackboard, "I'm really used to her!" I'd like to see if this old lady can eat us all tomorrow!" ”
