Chapter 185: The Winter of Rumors
"Smack!"
The glass smashed to pieces on the ground, and the splashed debris flew in all directions, and the crisp sound made everyone in the room startled. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info looked at Tang Batian with an angry face in amazement, and before he had time to think about these questions, everyone couldn't help but dodge sideways, in case this flying misfortune provoked him.
"Malagobi! If it is found out who said this, and the rules of the promotion hall are broken, Lao Tzu will send him to the labor camp for dinner! Tang Batian's angry face was a little distorted, and he shouted as he looked at the people sitting in the room.
The people in the house include all the cadres of the village committee of the village, as well as the youth officers who have been trained for several sessions, and a few party members with old qualifications in the village.
Although it was already after lunch, it didn't look bright because it was freezing outside. Some people speculate whether it will continue to snow, after all, it has been falling for several days, and everyone's travel has been affected. I temporarily received a notice from the loudspeaker in the village to come to the village committee for a meeting and discuss things, so no matter how big the difficulties are, everyone has to find a way to overcome them.
At this time, everyone gathered in the office of the village committee, watching Tang Batian lose his temper and dare not squeak! It's not just because of Tang Batian's madness, but also the main reason why everyone came to the meeting today. Something happened to the promotion hall, and it is still a disgraceful thing!
Not to mention Tang Batian's prestige in the village, just because he can speak in the city, if something disgraceful happens to the promotion hall, it can also be said to be a great shame. Because of the relationship between Tang Batian over the years, it can be said that the promotion hall has taken advantage of the surrounding area, and it will naturally attract the attention and blush of many people. Everyone seems to have forgotten about this, and now there is something to do, and everyone thinks about the importance of this matter.
Hearing Tang Batian finally roared and roared, among these people in the house, although some of them were older than Tang Batian in the village committee, no matter how good they were at this time, they didn't dare to answer immediately. What's more, when it comes to prestige and fame, who dares to compare with Tang Batian, a person who has been to the capital. Because this time the matter can be big or small, these people are usually bored and can brag, but when they really want to take responsibility, no one dares to stand up and speak.
The women's director of the promotion hall on the side is Zhuoyi's youngest sister Zhou Yingtai, a woman who has a great chance of turning around. Although she was not very old, she saw that everyone did not dare to squeak, and did not clean up the broken glass slag on the ground, but took another white porcelain cup on the table, used the boiling water in the kettle on the heating stove in the middle of the room, carefully brewed the cup, and then put a small handful of flower tea to brew most of the cup, and then brought it over and whispered: "Eight barbarians, why are you so angry?" I can't do it! ”
To say that Yingtai is only in his early twenties this week, he married in Fengling Village next door, which can be said to be very close. It's just that her man is a soldier, and he is stationed in the capital all the year round, and it is rare to see each other twice a year when the two places are separated. And she just gave birth to a child, and she lives mostly in her mother's house. Just because she was also a township art team at the beginning, she belonged to one of the activists on the side of the promotion hall.
I don't know why, Zhou Yingtai, who married into Fengling Village, was actually selected by the people of the Carrying Forward Hall to be the women's director.
Of course, many people know the relationship between the Zhuo family and Tang Batian, and the two families belong to the same courtyard. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and this kind of closest relationship is relied on, and everyone does not feel unusual.
Today's incident is too sudden, and when everyone hears the news, they all have some postures that can't react. At this time, Tang Batian was in a bad mood, and Zhou Yingtai said this, and sure enough, he saw that Tang Batian's face softened a little. Others didn't see it, and when Zhou Yingtai handed over the teacup, he actually used his little hand to gently scratch it in the palm of Tang Batian's hand that took the teacup.
Tang Batian had been standing in the middle with a tiger face, seeing that everyone had lowered their heads intentionally or unintentionally. Some pretend to drink tea, others seem to be intoxicated with a cigarette in their hand. For Zhou Yingtai's small action, Tang Batian's face didn't change, but his eyes seemed to soften. Glancing at the pretentious people in the room, he knew that they had no effect on the real thing.
Especially the old people who think they are quite old, they are arrogant when they are fine, and they pretend to be sick when they have something. Tang Batian had already seen a lot, and he was not surprised in his heart, but felt even more disdain for these people. However, these young officers here, although many of them have just emerged, they obviously already have their own ideas in their hearts, and Tang Batian seems to see himself that day from them.
Although they can't still have the opportunities they had when they were young, but now that the times are developing so fast, who knows if they will be another self. When he thought of this, because he felt a trace of surprise brought by Zhou Yingtai, his eyes finally fell on the faces of Irihai Gong and Tang Lianzhen.
Tang Lianzhen was the village director of the previous term, and Tang Cizhen, who controlled the supply and marketing cooperative, was a cousin, and he was one of the more radical cadres in the village. Irihai Gong is the director of this term, although he is indecisive, but he thinks that he has read a lot of books, and he has some Taoism in his heart. He is the younger brother of the recognized literati of the Propaganda Hall, and because of his elder brother, it has added a lot of convenience to him as a director.
The village director of the promotion hall has changed a lot, almost every term, and the longest has not exceeded two terms, but Tang Batian, the secretary of the village party committee, has never changed his position since he first took over. Now, it can be said that he has been doing it for decades, and this may be the most special case of the secretary in ten miles and eight townships!
Of course, this has the meaning of the government at the upper level, and it is also the reason why no one in the Carrying Hall has been able to shake Tang Batian's status for decades.
The villagers are very direct, have interests and benefits, and everyone will call them good. If there are no benefits and benefits, it is unknown what the outcome will be. To say that everyone usually shouts occasionally, it is just a few boring moans. When it comes to carrying forward the hall, if there is really something to do, everyone is really afraid that Tang Batian will leave it alone. Because the benefits that the promotion hall has obtained over the years are obvious to all, no matter what big or small things happen, it is basically Tang Batian's decision.
But this time it seems to be a little different!
Another strange incident happened in the promotion hall last night, although there are many in the township, but it is very rare in the promotion hall. This matter can be said to be big or small in everyone's eyes now, that is, someone hanged himself last night!
Of course, this kind of thing happened, you don't have to think about it, you know, there must be a root cause. But now this is not the main thing, the main thing is that today someone actually said that the hanged cousin Qiong Cuihua did not commit suicide, but was strangled to death and hung on the door. Someone sipped her sad man, Tang Jiadao, and went to the township police station to call the police, saying that his cousin had been killed.
Tang Batian received a call from the police station, and the anger in his heart can be imagined. He saw the scene with his own eyes, and also checked the tragic condition of Qiongcuihua with everyone. When Tang Jiadao appeared, he also asked the reason for the two couples in public, and finally everyone agreed that it was the two people who quarreled, which caused the guest to hang himself because he couldn't think about it. Finally, with the help of the neighbors, the congregation was sent to his house and placed outside.
No one thought that in the blink of an eye, this Tang Jiadao suddenly changed his words, and actually went to the township to report the case, saying that his cousin was hanged. Tang Batian was naturally furious when he heard this, and when he went to inquire about Tang Jiadao, this person actually disappeared. The township police station told Tang to deal with it for eight days, and he used the loudspeaker of the village committee to call the cadres and some old party members.
Tang Batian has always had the final say in the village, but this time Tang Batian actually avoided suspicion.
Because some people said that when they found that the guest Qiongcuihua hanged, they saw Tang Batian present, and this word caused rumors in the village. Not to mention what Tang Batian thought in his heart, in the eyes of ordinary people, he had a lot of thoughts. Tang Batian's success in these years is undoubted, and his prestige in the promotion hall cannot be denied, but for such a major event as life and death, the common people are not so polite.
Now the people at the police station have given Tang Batian face, and they have not come to shirk it for the time being, but asked Tang Batian to organize party members and cadres to analyze it first, which obviously shows that the government believes in Tang Batian. This may not have been imagined in later generations, but it is a matter of course in this era.
After all, everyone doesn't understand the so-called law, but some people know a little bit and understand that in such a small place, it is a character like Tang Batian who has the final say. Some people were jealous and speculated, and Tang Batian naturally understood this truth. Now is not the era before the opening of the government, he often goes to the city and the provincial capital, and he understands that although he is angry, there are some things that he must coordinate. Avoiding suspicion is just a basic approach, and you can't confuse and mislead everyone's attention.
"Ask someone to let Yuxian go to see it, and repeatedly check it in front of their family, the person must be hanged, if there are still objections or entanglements, you can only wait for someone from the township or county. This matter is understandable to the family, but we have to tell them in front of the ugliness, if it is proved again that this guest hanged himself, then the impact of the rumors must be borne by the family! ”
It was Shen Yuanqiao, a youth officer, who spoke, who had no direct entanglement with the Tang family, and who was a foreigner from the Carrying Forward Hall. Standing in the promotion hall, although it is not his reason, but being able to become a youth officer, he naturally knows that it is Tang Batian's reason. Although he didn't know the final outcome of this matter, even if he wanted to repay his favor and stand in line, he had to come out to support Tang Batian first.
Jia Dao also confirmed that they quarreled for two nights, but said that the two of them were just arguing over some trivial things, I don't know or believe why she couldn't think about it, and hanged herself at the door of the promotion house! They have three children! Probably knowing that it would be difficult to avoid if he didn't speak, Irihai Gong finally coughed lightly and then spoke.
Seeing that everyone was silent, and Tang Ba Angel with a tiger face on the side was smoking, he knew that it was time for him to speak by himself at this time, and said slowly again: "The child of the Tang Dianfeng family over there in Hongzheng Hall is said to have died in an unknown manner, and the two in-laws have gone crazy. Now some people say that the guest of his house disappeared inexplicably last night! Whoever came out of these rumors should be investigated! ”
