Chapter 15: Brush the slogan

Ma Xiaole carried the egg and jumped back home.

As soon as Ma Changgen entered the door, he was washing his face with well water, and when he saw Ma Xiaole, he straightened up and said, "I asked you to come back early to help cook, why did you go out into the wild again." ”

"No wilderness, do the right thing." Ma Xiaole was very proud, "I met Lai Shungui, and he asked me to go to the village in the afternoon to help and pay the salary!" ”

"Stinky boy, it's when you take a nap, you should eat it!" Ma Changgen laughed hesitantly, "Take the opportunity to pat his ass, maybe I can go to the village to find an errand to do, then I, Ma Changgen, can also straighten up and speak loudly in the village." ”

"Look at your useless appearance, now that you straighten up and speak loudly, who can still do you to the ground?" Hu Aiying came over and said.

"You know, no one is doing anything to me, but I don't have enough confidence!" Ma Changgen splashed his face with water, and shouted after entering the hall, "Don't eat yet!" ”

Hu Aiying turned around to clean up the meal, Ma Xiaole also washed his face, and went into the house to start eating.

After the meal, Ma Xiaole pondered again, he had to go to the field in the afternoon, and then he ran to the village with a sweat, doesn't it show that he is diligent? So, he said to Ma Changgen: "Godfather, I'll go to the field to work for a while in the afternoon, Lai Shungui said that I can go in the middle of the afternoon." ”

"Bah, this stinky boy, why are you so diligent." Ma Changgen lay on the mat, took a nap with a straw hat on his head, muttered a word, and then fell asleep in a daze.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, although it is the hottest time of the day, the harvesters must also go to the field, otherwise there is no hope for an afternoon.

Ma Changgen woke up, took his straw hat, sat up, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Get off the ground!" ”

Hu Aiying walked out of the hall with a yawn, lazily tying her hair, "You said that it was hot this day, and you didn't let people live." ”

Ma Changgen has already rolled up the mat, "Alas, when can it be like in TV, the air conditioner blows the air conditioner on a hot day and freezes the hairs stand on end, the air conditioner in the cold blows the warm air, and the hot butt runs all over the house, that's enjoyable!" ”

Hu Aiying snorted in her nostrils, "You wait for the next life, there is no hope in this life." ”

"Don't say it, maybe Xiaole and Erbao will have a future in the future, so don't you have hope?" Ma Changgen pressed out a bucket of cool water from the well, picked up the scoop and drank most of it, poured a large basin, washed his face happily, and was full of energy all of a sudden, "Let's go, I'll go planing first, you and Xiaole will follow." After saying that, he left the courtyard gate.

Ma Xiaole was not in a hurry at all, he was just making a show, and he swayed all the way to the Southwest Ridge. When I arrived at the peanut field, I picked up the peanuts that had been shaved in the morning.

After a noon exposure, the wet soil wrapped in the roots of the peanut seedlings has dried, and the mud falls down with a slight shake, leaving only heavy peanut fruits.

Before three o'clock, Ma Xiaole couldn't stand it anymore and said that he would go back to prepare. Ma Changgen not only didn't stop him, but also urged him to hurry up and don't delay the affairs of the village.

Ma Xiaole went to the village in advance.

A meeting was being held in the village department, including Fan Baofa, the party secretary, Lai Shungui, the village head, Ding Jianjian, the deputy village head, Liu Changxi, the accountant, Gu Meiyu, the women's director, Gao Desheng, the militia captain, Xu Hongqi, the family planning specialist, and six production team leaders.

"Everyone must recognize the truth of today's meeting, otherwise no one will have a good time at the end of the year!" Fan Baofa tapped the table fiercely with his yellowed fingers, "Our family planning work is simply too lax, if it is effective, if it is not effective, if there is no atmosphere, the whole township counts down!" Shame on you! If Secretary Han hadn't helped speak in the middle, I'm afraid the red-headed report document would have come down a long time ago, and whose face would be able to hang it at that time?! ”

Fan Baofa said that the big guys were bored, and Xu Hongqi, a family planning specialist, first began to review, "The main responsibility for this matter lies with me, I am busy with the work in the field every day, and I don't take the work to heart." Here, I have made a profound review, starting tomorrow, oh no, from today, I will definitely take back my thoughts and promise to do a good job in the family planning work in our Xiaonanzhuang Village! ”

Gu Meiyu, as the village women's director, felt a little responsible, and the second spoke, "As the women's director, I didn't do a good job in women's work, and it also brought trouble and resistance to family planning. ”

"Don't review it all, this is not a criticism meeting." Lai Shungui, the village head, held a cigarette and said in a deep voice, "Recognizing the shortcomings is just the beginning, the key is what to do in the future." ”

"Yes, Village Chief Lai is right." Fan Baofa, the village party secretary, vigorously extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray, "Understanding is fundamental, action is the key!" ”

Ma Xiaole couldn't help but laugh when he listened outside the door, no wonder the people in the village said that the village leaders like to hold meetings, it turned out that they were all about the big truth, not to mention, to create this kind of atmosphere, it really feels like a leader. Otherwise, there will always be people who say that the village chief should not be regarded as a cadre, and the size is indeed a head.

"Who's laughing outside?" Fan Baofa straightened his neck and asked, "Can you laugh casually in a meeting?" ”

Ma Xiaole showed his head, "Fan Zhishu, it's me, Xiaole." ”

"Oh, it's Ma Xiaole, I asked him to come, take a look at the family planning slogan at the entrance of the village in the afternoon, so that it can be seen at a glance when the above comes to check." Lai Shungui turned his head to look at Ma Xiaole, "How can I say that I am also a junior high school student, and I still know two words." ”

"Well, this family planning slogan must show the importance and intensity of our village's family planning work!" Fan Baofa said, "In addition, there should be a deterrent effect on the villagers!" Look at how many families in our village have overborn to three or four children, serious, the problem is very serious! ”

The meeting continued, Ma Xiaole entered the house and really had nothing to do, and when he saw that everyone had a teacup in front of him, he picked up the kettle and poured the tea one by one.

Lai Shungui looked at it, squinted his eyes and said, "Hey, don't look at Ma Xiaole, his eyes are quite tricky, and his calves are very diligent." ”

Fan Baofa estimated that he was tired from pretending to be deep, so he took the opportunity to relax and beckoned to Ma Xiaole, "Xiaole, come here, pour out my tea leaves and replace them with new ones." Ma Xiaole ran over, splashed out the tea leaves that had been brewed white, and smelled them after changing them to new ones, "Fan Zhishu, this tea is really fragrant!" ”

"It's not fragrant, it's still called tea." Fan Baofa laughed, "What's the matter, you want a drink too?" ”

"That's not going to work." Ma Xiaole shook his head, "How can the leader's tea be drunk casually?" ”

"Sample, it's serious." Fan Baofa knocked on the table while laughing, "Continue the meeting, for now, we have to focus on what is in front of us first, let's see what slogans we get?" ”

"Family planning is beneficial to the country and the people."

"It's good to have only one."

"The fines for overbirth, the more the penalties are exceeded."

"If you have less, you can get rich, and if you have more, you will be poor."

……

After a while, Fan Baofa waved his hand, "There is a reason, but there is a lack of strength, is there anything else?" ”

Ma Xiaole understood that he had seen many similar slogans on the small bookshelf, so he said to Fan Baofa: "Fan Zhishu, can I say something?" ”

"You?" Fan Baofa squinted at Ma Xiaole.

"Say it, say it as long as it's appropriate." Lai Shungui smiled hesitantly, "Xiaole, this guy has a lot of ghost ideas, maybe he can really make a good slogan." ”

Fan Baofa looked at Lai Shungui and nodded, "Well, yes, let's talk about it." ”

"If you don't tie a child, you will be beaten with a stick; If the second child is not pierced, the wall will fall and the house will collapse! Ma Xiaole said sonorously.

Fan Baofa was stunned for a moment, and after a few seconds, he slammed the table, "Okay, that's it!" ”

The big guys applauded unanimously and passed it.

However, Gu Meiyu frowned, "It doesn't seem appropriate to beat the people with sticks, doesn't that regard the villagers as class enemies, you must know that family planning is important, but it is still an internal contradiction, and it cannot be solved by the contradiction between the enemy and me." ”

"That's easy to do!" Lai Shungui said, "Just leave the second sentence, I'll take Ma Xiaole to get this matter done!" ”

As soon as the meeting ended, Lai Shungui took Ma Xiaole to find a small bucket of white lime powder, scooped water into the pond and stirred it into a slurry, let Ma Xiaole lift it, and found a brush again, and went to the village to stand at the head of the road leading to the township.

"Xiaole, where do you think it's good?" Lai Shungui touched the back of his head and had no idea.

"It's brushed on the courtyard wall of Cao Erkui's house, his house is the first at the intersection, and the wall is flat, just right!" Ma Xiaole was unequivocal.

"Medium!" Lai Shungui handed the brush to Ma Xiaole, "You can do it!" ”

If you want to say that Ma Xiaole is not good at studying, it is because he is not serious and his mind is not focused on it, but he writes well, which just comes in handy. Without saying a word, he waved his brush and neatly wrote, "If the second child is not tied, the wall will fall and the house will collapse." Xiaonanzhuang Village, Shagang Township. ".

Lai Shungui took a closer look, nodded his head to express satisfaction, and walked away to take a look, still nodding, "Xiaole, it works, I'll give you ten yuan today!" ”

Ma Xiaole was excited when he heard this, and ran to Lai Shungui with a small bucket, "Village chief, how about brushing another one on the north side of the road?" ”

"What else?"

"If the second child is not pierced, catch the pig and lead the sheep; If you don't prick the third child, catch your father! ”

"Huh." Lai Shungui smacked it, "This doesn't seem to be bad, medium, brush it!" ”

In this way, Ma Xiaole followed Lai Shungui to brush five or six slogans in the village, and when the sun was about to set, Fan Baofa took a group of people to take a look at it and gave it a thumbs up.

In the end, Fan Bao took the lead and added five yuan to Ma Xiaole.

Ma Xiaole went home with fifteen yuan, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he slammed the gate loudly, "Godmother, cut meat and eat it tomorrow!" ”

Hu Aiying poked her head out of the stove house when she heard the sound, and saw Ma Xiaole shaking the money in her hand, and she was a little puzzled. But Ma Changgen reacted quickly, "Ah, is it the salary that you help pay in the village?" ”

Ma Xiaole nodded proudly, Ma Changgen touched his chin and smiled, "Good boy, I can earn money to supplement my family, well, it's good." ”

Hu Aiying also smiled, "Our Xiaole is capable!" ”

"Alas, you said that if Xiaole can find an errand in the village, then the relationship is really good!" Ma Changgen said to Hu Aiying.

"You can save your worries, it's okay to be a helper once in a while, if you want to stay for a long time, there is no way, then how many people are watching, just the relatives of the branch secretary and the village chief's family can't arrange it, when will it be our turn to Xiaole." Hu Aiying wiped the water on her hands with her apron and began to collect the clothes she had washed at noon.

"I don't know, I said it was an addiction." Ma Changgen smiled, "Xiaole, give me a pound of wine in the store and drink two cups tonight." ”

Ma Xiaole readily agreed, went into the house and took the wine bottle and went out, walking towards Lai Shungui's small shop.

At this time, it is the busiest time for small shops, when everyone comes out to buy oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and children will also get some gluttonous snacks.

Ma Xiaole saw Zhang Xiuhua busy in the store from afar, counting money for a while, handing things for a while, and he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
