In the blink of an eye, the season has entered late autumn and early winter, and the acacia tree outside the window of the Wen family has already been fruitful.

The clusters were covered with pod-like fruits, most of which were ripe and yellow-brown, and the few that were not yet ripe were tender green. From a distance, the trees are full of small bells, and they look like bunches of small bananas, which is really lovely.

"Jingjing! You see, the acacia flowers were in full bloom when you came, and now they are fruitful. You're almost six months old, and you'll be able to see this acacia tree in just over three months. Zhu Yuliang looked forward to God giving her a little fairy-like daughter, so she called the baby in her belly "Jingjing".

After living here for almost four years, Zhu Yuliang often complained to Maitreya Buddha about his grievances, and often leaned against the window to chat with this acacia tree. Indeed, this tree has witnessed the ups and downs, joys and sorrows of her life in Tongxin Pavilion, and is undoubtedly one of the most loyal listeners.

That day, Zhu Yuliang went to work with a bigger and more pregnant belly. From afar, I saw familiar people talking and talking about each other in front of the bulletin board of the Huansha Business Department......

Who's going to be unlucky again? She thought as she stepped forward to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, the people who read the big-character posters turned their heads and threw complicated eyes at her, some sympathetic, some doubtful, some regretful, and some gloating......

Suddenly, she saw the three words "Zhu Yuliang" that were crossed out by the red cross.

"It's over! Finished! The first reaction in her mind was that the secret had been exposed, and the end had come.

What exactly is written in the big-character poster? Who wrote it? She forced herself to walk up, wanting to see what was going on. At this time, the crowd around her had dispersed, and everyone just stood far away, observing her every move.

Zhu Yuliang tried to concentrate on reading the big-character poster that was vital to her.

The headline of the big-character poster was "Down with the Horse, Ghost, Snake, and God Zhu Yuliang". The content is to list Zhu Yuliang's five major crimes:

The first is to sympathize with the capitalist roaders, openly cry out for the capitalist roaders, and collude with them;

second, they openly insulted progressive young people who wore red armbands, and had strong resistance to the in-depth development of the soul transformation movement;

Third, when he was a salesman, he had a bad service attitude, despised the workers and peasants, broke away from the workers, and slapped the workers and peasants in the face, and was very arrogant;

Fourth, the style of life is corrupt, and he has an ambiguous relationship with Li Fan, the former leader of the Materials Bureau, and has been witnessed by the progressive masses; usually pays attention to dressing, pursues the bourgeois life mood, high heels are bony, and she looks like a bourgeois lady;

Fifth, he slandered the leader's writings, once saying: "The leader's writings are profound and boring, and I can't read a single word......

"To sum up, Zhu Yuliang is the horse ghost and snake god mixed in the progress team of the Jiyang County Material Bureau. If we don't get her out and bring her down, she'll continue to corrupt our pure progressive ranks. I hope that the progressive masses will keep their eyes open, not be soft-hearted, and not blindly sympathize with the class enemy! Progressive masses, hurry up and take action to defeat the horses, ghosts, snakes, and gods Zhu Yuliang! ”

……

is different from the big-character poster that criticized Li Fan, and the last signature of this big-character poster was written as the whistleblower: Sun Youcai.

After reading the full text of the big-character poster, Zhu Yuliang breathed a sigh of relief.

She walked calmly towards the office, and her mind was spinning rapidly: "If Sun Youcai hadn't jumped out to report me this time, I would have forgotten about him, because he has disappeared since he became a warehouse keeper."

Now that he sees Li Fan falling, he immediately jumps out and bites, which is really despicable! However, it is purely self-inflicted that he was demoted because of the examination paper fraud case, and it is not my fault, so why should he be my enemy?

Do I have a real enemy in the Supply Bureau who wants to kill me? Sun Youcai is just a dog who jumped out at the behest of this behind-the-scenes instruction?

Could it be that someone wants to attack Wen Yuanfang, or Li Fan, or Cai Fuguo by attacking me?

If it is said that the big-character poster criticizing Li Fan was instructed by Cai Fuguo, I believe it; If this big-character poster is also instructed by Cai Fuguo and Xu Qingpei and gang, I don't believe it at all, because it's illogical.

After almost four years, no matter what others say about Cai Fuguo, Cai Fuguo at least has no ill will towards me; On the contrary, he painstakingly protects me and fulfills me everywhere, so that even the most stupid woman can feel it...... Even though I still don't understand why he did it. ”

She is no longer the original "Zhu Yuliang" who leads to the end with one intestine, and the confusing situation has complicated her mind.

"Horse ghost snake god Zhu Yuliang stop! You have to accept the criticism of the progressive masses. Sun Youcai's break interrupted Zhu Yuliang's train of thought.

Zhu Yuliang looked at Sun Youcai in a daze. I saw that he was wearing a red armband, and he wanted to come forward and grab her violently.

A strange scene happened: Sun Youcai suddenly fell to the ground and convulsed, foaming at the mouth and rolling his eyes...... Frightened, Zhu Yuliang shouted: "Come on!" He seemed to be sick. ”

Everyone sent Sun Youcai to the People's Hospital. Upon examination, it was found that he had committed a madness.

"It turned out to be a poor worm! He can't blame me for his illness this time, right? I even called someone to save him! Zhu Yuliang thought so, and shook his head with a wry smile.

This farce soon spread to Cai Fuguo.

"You tell this mad dog to stop biting; If he wants to bite again, I will kill the materials of his bad elements and let him go back to the countryside to farm! Anyway, he has a criminal record in my hands. Cai Fuguo gritted his teeth and said to Xu Qingpei.

"I don't know which of his tendons is wrong. Probably because he was too bored in the warehouse and wanted to find something to do. Either he thinks that the person who wanted to deal with him seriously was Li Fan; Li Fan is gone now, and Zhu Yuliang is Li Fan's person, so he can beat the dog without looking at the owner. Xu Qingpei helped analyze.

"What? Do you call Zhu Yuliang a dog? Are you also thinking about it wrong? Cai Fuguo reprimanded angrily.

"Phew! Bah! Bah! I'm saying the wrong thing again. I'm just a metaphor! See what you're anxious about? Xu Qingpei rolled his eyes and muttered: "For a pregnant woman, can you be so angry?" I can't figure it out! ”

"If you talk nonsense again, our brothers won't do it. Chen Meijuan's matter is because I can't reach out my hand, and I have to admit it if I don't recognize it; If anyone moves a finger of Zhu Yuliang under my nose, then I will never sit idly by! Cai Fuguo said fiercely.

"Good! Good! Good! I know that the eldest brother is affectionate and righteous, and there is a clear distinction between grievances and hatreds. But if you pay so much for her, she may not appreciate it! When will you go to stuff duck eggs in the hall like this? I'm getting more and more incomprehensible! ”

"It doesn't matter if she appreciates it or not. She is now a great benefactor to me and Chen Meijuan, no matter how much we pay for her, it is due; One day, if she thinks I'm her great benefactor, she'll naturally reciprocate me. I'm in a hurry! Xiao Zhu is too righteous, this is her weakness, and sooner or later she will be used by the villain. Cai Fuguo still said things that made Xu Qingpei hear in a fog.

"So what's the end of this matter? Now that the limelight of encouraging the masses to expose all horses, ghosts, snakes, and gods is so tight, we can't openly tear that big-character poster down! Xu Qingpei asked.

"You want the dog to write another letter of repentance, saying that he took advantage of the situation to write a big-character poster to frame Zhu Yuliang for personal revenge, and asked for Zhu Yuliang's forgiveness and leniency from the unit. Then, let him tear off the big-character poster by himself, and then paste the big-character poster of the confession letter. Otherwise, he is a bad element in the county material bureau, and the bureau is ready to criticize him first and then fire him! ”

……

The next day, there was only Sun Youcai's big-character repentance on the bulletin board of the Huansha Business Department.

"Old Sun! Are you showing us your calligraphy? Your handwriting is really good. Hahaha! ”

"Look at it next time you make a move, don't flash your waist again! Hahaha! ”

Sun Youcai couldn't wait to find a hole to drill into.

……

One night, Liu Yuelan came to Tongxin Pavilion to do a fetal examination for Xiao Zhu, and Chen Meijuan heard the voice and came out of the house to say hello.

"We haven't seen each other in months. I heard Lao Cai talk about Li Ju, and I really felt unpredictable! Now you really have to be careful when you speak. It can be seen that Chen Meijuan does not have the slightest hint of hypocrisy.

"Yes! If this continues, husband and wife should be careful when they talk to each other! Oh, you say that Jiyang dialect is quite good, so in the future, you will speak Jiyang dialect and become a Jiyang person! Hehe! Liu Yuelan had something to say.

After Liu Yuelan touched Zhu Yuliang's abdomen, she listened to the fetal heartbeat again, saying that the fetal heartbeat was quite normal, and the fetus was moving according to the established plan. In short, she is quite satisfied with the result.

The three women were afraid that it would be inconvenient to talk downstairs, so they sat upstairs in Zhu Yuliang's house and chatted for a while. Through this incident, the three women, who were originally completely different, found that there were more and more common topics.

"It seems that one of you is a reactionary academic authority, and the other is taking the road of white dictatorship, I am still not qualified in the end, and I am only worthy of being a horse ghost and snake god!" Zhu Yuliang's words drew a burst of laughter.

This kind of laughter has been lost in Tongxin Pavilion for a long time.

They chatted and discovered a truth: women have to live their own, and it is not reliable to rely on men to protect them.

Indeed, the husbands of all three women are heroes among men, and they are also affectionate to their wives; But the reality is that when they are in danger, the husbands are unable to protect their wives.

Zhu Yuliang felt that the upstairs was a little stuffy, so he went to open the window, and a cold air "whirred" in.

"Come and see! The leaves of the acacia tree, in order to escape the exploitation of nourishment at night, are now shrunk into a ball, and have completely lost their vitality during the day; However, at dawn, when the first rays of light appeared, it was rejuvenated. ”

"Yes! The acacia tree closes its leaves at night, but silently deepens its roots; The appearance is cowardly, but the inside is full of vitality. Liu Yuelan walked over and echoed.

Liu Yuelan's words made Chen Meijuan fall into deep thought, and made Zhu Yuliang think of the humble concubine Zhou Jiahong again.
