Sun Chengwei inadvertently met Sun Chenghui at a small restaurant at the intersection of Beiguan Road in the county seat. At that time, Sun Chengwei was released only three days by a labor camp in Hebei Province - he was released a year early because of his good performance. He carried only the old suitcase that had once contained gold bars, and the suitcase contained a certificate of release and two boxes of so-called "high-end snacks". Sun Chengwei originally thought that the Jian'an Coal Mine was in Jian'an County, but when he arrived at the county seat, he learned that the Jian'an Mine was still six kilometers away, and the last train drove away, and he could not reach the Jian'an Mine that day. Sun Chengwei went to the small restaurant at the intersection of Beiguan Road to eat, and exchanged the last 20 yuan on his body for a bowl of lard residue stewed radish and two sorghum cakes.

When enjoying this delicious meal alone, a cadre-like fat customer at the same table was gnawing on his nest head and sighing to a thin companion of his own, saying that the Chinese people are really good, really excellent, and they don't make trouble in the face of such great difficulties.

Sun Chengwei's old mistake of talking nonsense was made immediately, and he blurted out almost without thinking about it: "Wrong, comrade? If you want me to say, it's not that the Chinese people are good, it's that China's social system is good! Who would dare to make trouble? Looking for death? Aren't you afraid of the iron fist of the dictatorship of the proletariat?! ”

The thin customer nodded: "Yes, yes, the system is good, our dictatorship is really not vegetarian!" ”

The fat customer who looked like a cadre was alert, stared at Sun Chengwei and asked, "Comrade, what do you mean by this?" ”

Sun Chengwei was shocked, and immediately realized that he was in trouble, but his face was not timid, and he gnawed on the sorghum cake in his hand again, and said: "What can it mean, I mean nothing more than to say that the socialist system is good - the socialist system is not good, can we live a happy life like now?" ”

The fat customer's face tensed: "I see you have something to say - what are you doing?" ”

Sun Chengwei also glared: "Me? Revolutionary cadres, what's wrong?! ”

The fat customer's tone softened a little and said, "We as cadres should pay more attention to the impact." Yes, because of natural disasters, we are currently in some difficulty. However, with such good people, such excellent people, difficulties will always pass, right? ”

Sun Chengwei said with a smile: "That's, that's, the people are excellent, the system is superior, there is no flame mountain that can't be passed!" ”

The fat customer was still puzzled, and asked again: "Comrade, where do you work?" ”

Sun Chengwei said nonsense: "I am working in our dictatorship, and this time I went to Jian'an Coal Mine to handle cases. ”

The fat customer was in awe: "Oh, you're from the Public Security Bureau?" ”

Sun Chengwei waved his hand: "From the Labor Reform Bureau, have you heard of it?" We are in charge of prisons, labor farms, ......"

Just like that, Sun Chenghui, who was carrying grain in the car, walked into the store with Xiao Yuejin to buy fritters.

For a while, Sun Chengwei was stunned and shouted: "Little sister! "Stood up.

Sun Chenghui was also stunned, almost not believing her eyes: "Brother, yes...... It's you! ”

Sun Chengwei was happy: "It's not me!" ”

Yuejin looked at Sun Chengwei, who he had never seen before, in amazement.

Sun Chenghui said: "Hurry up and call uncle, this is your uncle!" ”

Yuejin called sweetly: "Uncle! ”

Sun Chengwei hugged Yuejin: "Okay, okay, little nephew, let my uncle guess who you are?" It's a junior, right? ”

Yuejin said seriously: "Uncle, my name is Yuejin!" ”

Sun Chengwei hurriedly opened the old suitcase beside him, took out a box of high-end dim sum and handed it to Yuejin: "Give, Yuejin, the real peach crisp is not made of saccharin, it is made of sugar." ”

When Yuejin was gobbling up snacks, Sun Chenghui asked, "Brother, how did you find here?" ”

Sun Chengwei looked at the two customers in front of the table, one fat and one thin, and said, "Let's go home, let's go home!" ”

After returning home with the grain truck of Jian'an Mine, Sun Chengwei told Sun Chenghui, Liu Cunyi and his mother that because he had reformed better, his sentence was reduced by one year and released early. After that, he added: "Actually, I also know that they put me in order to save some food." ”

Liu Cunyi asked suspiciously: "Dawei, have you really reformed it?" ”

Sun Chengwei said: "That's, that's, I bow when I see the telephone pole now, and I smile when I see the puppy." ”

Liu Cunyi snorted: "Dawei, just say this to you, I don't think you have reformed your ......"

Zou Zhaodi was unhappy and said, "Cunyi and Chenghui, isn't your brother here just to see me?" The government has released him, so don't try him again, okay? ”

Sun Chengwei didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Mom, don't say that, just try it - I'm good to see you, and I want to get a job here in Cunyi." ”

Sun Chenghui was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother, in your case, I'm afraid it's difficult to arrange work, right?" ”

Liu Cunyi sighed and said: "The economy must shrink in an all-round way, and the in-service workers in the mine must be decentralized. ”

Sun Chengwei said: "Cunyi, aren't you in front of the mine manager, it's always easy to find me some work to do, right?" Don't worry, I know it's not the end of the day, and I don't want to be motivated, I just want to find a place to eat, just don't starve to death. ”

Sun Chenghui said: "Brother, don't worry, stay and rest first, let's find a way!" ”

Sun Chengwei was happy again: "Okay, good, there are more ways than difficulties - I learned these words on the train." ”

At this time, it was already dark, and when Sun Chenghui beckoned the family to dinner, he found that the aid to the DPRK and the victory were gone.

Zou Zhaodi said: "I must have been scared away by Cunyi." Then, he complained that Liu Cunyi was too ruthless.

Liu Cunyi's anger came up again: "That's how I pulled aid to North Korea, and I didn't change it, he still has a hard mouth!" ”

Sun Chengwei said: "It's so dark, why don't you go out and look for it?" ”

Liu Cunyi waved his hand: "No, let the mine radio station broadcast it to me!" As he spoke, he picked up the phone, "Pick me up at the mine radio station." Mine radio station? I'm Liu Cunyi. Broadcast it to me, and let my two little bastards, Liu Yuanchao and Liu Shengli, get me home. To be clear, my policy is to treat the captives preferentially, take the initiative to come back for leniency, and if I catch them, I will expose their dogs! ”

The female announcer laughed on the phone and said, "Mine Chief Liu, it's not good for me to say that on the radio, right?" ”

Liu Cunyi said: "That's it! Give me a few more shouts! ”

Not long after, the loudspeaker outside sounded: "Liu Yuanchao and Liu Shengli, please go home immediately." Your father's policy is to treat the captives favorably, and if you go home and admit your mistakes, your father will be lenient; If he is caught, your father will be punished more heavily. Liu Yuanchao child, your father specially reminds you to pay attention to your ass ......"

However, no matter how they shouted on the radio, Liu Yuanchao and Liu Shengli just didn't go home that night. The brother and sister and the little girl from Fengyang, Panpan, slept all night in an abandoned earthen blast furnace left behind in the *** era in the west gate of the mine, so angry that Liu Cunyi scolded endlessly, and asked the comrade on duty in the mine security department to help him find the child, which also caused Sun Chenghui to not close his eyes all night.
