The sisters returned to the village before eight o'clock, and Zhao Erma, Zhao Wumi, and a few women sat under the ancient locust tree and chattered.

Zhao Ermao saw them, her nose was not a nose, her eyes were not her eyes, she turned her back to the two of them.

When Zhao Mian greeted her and asked her, he was a little inexplicable.

Zhao Ke was cheeky, and called people one by one casually: "Second grandmother, fifth grandmother, and Aunt Dong'er......"

Aunt Dong greeted Zhao Mian warmly: "The eldest girl is back?" What's it like in the factory? ”

Zhao Mian replied obediently: "Little Keto, her acquaintance took care of me, and everything went well." "

Zhao Wuni praised Zhao Ke with a smile: "Zhao Ke has the ability." "

Zhao Kedang didn't hear Aunt Dong'er's differential treatment, and said to the big guy: "I'll send my sister back to the commune tomorrow, tell me in advance if you have anything to bring, and I'll help bring it back." ”

Aunt Dong immediately said: "My third brother is going to get engaged, I want to bring two pieces of red cloth, can you bring them back?" ”

"Aunt Dong, just give me the cloth ticket."

"The production team hasn't paid dividends yet, so I'll give you credit first, and the autumn harvest will be given to you."

Zhao Ke raised his eyebrows, his smile unchanged, "Okay, I'll talk to Accountant Niu when I go back and record the account." ”

Aunt Dong was a little stupid for a moment, "What can I do if I don't give it to you?" ”

"The third brother is happy in the front, everything is smooth, and everything will be smooth in the future."

Her words were so pleasing, what other emotions could Aunt Dong have, and she agreed, "Okay, okay, just do what you say." "

Zhao Mian spoke out at the right time: "Xiao Ke still has to deliver the package, let's go first." "

Zhao Ke stepped on the bicycle and carried Zhao Mian home first.

Everyone looked at the backs of the sisters with indescribable envy.

Zhao Wuni pushed Zhao Erma, "You are not as good as a child." ”

Zhao Erma shook her shoulders, twisted her hand away, rolled her eyes, stood up and left.

On the other end, Yue Ke first sent his sister home, then pedaled his bicycle to the Zhiqing point, and shouted at the male Zhiqing's house: "Fu Zhiqing, there is your package." ”

Fu Hang appeared at the window first, and looked at Zhao Ke with some surprise, "Wait a minute." ”

Zhao Ke waited for his kung fu, stepped off the bicycle, hooked the tripod, and removed the package on the back seat.

Ben Hang wore the white shirt and trousers that I had worn before I came out, and when he didn't move, he replaced the oil in his right hand with his left hand and led the decent mouth shirt and trousers to come out, and put down his right hand in the left hand of the horse gate

Jane's feet.

Zhao Ke looked at his right forearm, unable to see through the other party's injuries through his sleeve.

Zhao ...... Homosexuals. Fu Hang chose a polite salutation and stretched out his hand to take it, "Shen, give it to me?" ”

"Just call me Zhao Ke." Zhao Mian handed the package to his left hand.

The package is not a regular shape, and the moment Zhao Ke let go, the larger one fell.

It's about to fall.

There's nothing in there, just in case there's a fragile ......

Zhao Ke's hands were hurriedly clasped on both sides of the package and held on.

At the same time, Fu Hang's right hand also made the same movement.

He slowed down for a moment, and his big slender hand was directly covered on Zhao Ke's hand.

One second. Two seconds......

Fu Hang quickly took his hand away as if he had been electrocuted.

Zhao Ke didn't feel the same, his hands were still resting firmly on the package, his fingers didn't move, and his expression didn't change much.

Isn't it just a touch of hands?

Zhao Ke was very understanding and relieved: "Does Fu Zhiqing's arm still hurt?" ”

In contrast, Fu Hang's actions just now were a little rare and strange.

Fu Hang suppressed the strangeness in his heart, pressed his right hand on the top of the package again, and said very calmly: "It doesn't hurt." "

Zhao Ke let go of his hand, "Then I'll go first, if the safflower oil runs out, remember to ask me." ”

"Thank you." Fu Hang refers to both wrapping and safflower oil.

Zhao Ke kicked off the tripod, stepped onto the bicycle with long legs, and waved his hand in a chic manner, "You're welcome." ”

Fu Hang watched her walk away, looked down at her right hand, and was slightly distracted.

After a moment, Fu Hang's gaze turned to the address on the package, and his eyes became indifferent.

Liu Xingxue saw him come in with such a big package, and said enviously: "Fu Hang, your family is so good to you." "

Fu Hang replied not too emotionally, sat down at the desk, and slowly unwrapped the package.

There were some daily necessities, two new clothes, a hand-woven scarf, two physics notebooks, and two very thick double covers.

The envelopes were opened, each filled with money tickets, and one of them was accompanied by a letter.

Fu Hang collected the money ticket and was silent for a long time before opening the letter with an expressionless face————

[Erfu Hang: Zhan Xinjia.

/>

As soon as Zhao Mian entered the house, he was greeted quite warmly.

Yu Xiulan and Zhao Jianguo looked up and down around her, "I've lost weight." ”

Zhao Mian touched his cheek, "It's only been a week, where can you lose weight so quickly?" ”

Zhao Feng couldn't squeeze in, so he poured water for her and echoed his parents: "Sister, you have indeed lost weight." ”

"Look?" Yu Xiulan took her hand to the table and sat down, "You arrived so early, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" ”

Zhao Mian remembered the lunch box she brought back, and wanted to get up, "Not yet, I'll go to the kitchen to heat up the dishes I cooked in the cafeteria yesterday." ”

"Don't move, let your brother go." Yu Xiulan snatched the lunch box and handed it to Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng took the lunch box and said as he walked out: "Eldest sister, you drink water, I'll go to hot rice, and when the second sister comes back, you can eat." ”

Zhao Mian was very uncomfortable and remembered it.

Yu Xiulan held her hand, "You just sit down." ”

Zhao Mian could only sit, answering his parents' various questions while looking inside and outside the hall.

The yard is neat and tidy, and the windows in the house are bright and clean, and they look brand new.

She originally thought that she was not at home, and the house might not be used to it, and it was messy, but she didn't expect that there was no at all.

It's like having her without her, in fact, there is not much difference, and the family doesn't need her so much......

Zhao Mian couldn't help but feel lost.

Zhao Ke came back, the food was almost hot, and Zhao Mian wanted to serve the dishes and chopsticks again, but he couldn't move.

Zhao Feng served the dishes, fish soup, scrambled eggs with wild vegetables, oil cakes...

And the fish soup turned out to be white.

Zhao Ke saw it and deliberately said sourly: "Mom, you are too partial, I will come back with a pot of water, and my sister will be a thick soup." ”

Yu Xiulan held two pairs of chopsticks in her hand, one pair was gently handed to the eldest daughter, and the other pair was directly stuffed to the second daughter, and she was not polite, "Eat yours, how many words." ”

Zhao Ke turned his head to complain to his sister: "Sister, look at your mother~"

Zhao Mian lowered his head and smiled.

Zhao Feng brought up another iron lunch box, swallowing uncontrollably as he walked.

The smell of meat fills the room.

"Braised pork in the cafeteria?" Zhao Ke happily pasted Zhao Mian, "It's still my sister who is good to me." ”

Yu Xiulan couldn't stand her continuous sycophants, "You can get it, it's over, right?" ”

r />

Yu Xiulan half-pushed and half-opened her mouth to eat, and said stiffly after eating: "Eh, you just eat, I don't like to eat this greasy thing." ”

"Mom doesn't like to eat, I love to eat." Zhao Feng said without disgust, "Sister, you two eat the meat, leave the soup to me, and I'll make dinner at noon." ”

Yu Xiulan directly gave him a pestle, "I don't need you to eat and drink?" ”

Zhao Feng was as heroic as a peasant fighting a landlord, and muttered: "Your oil, you almost use chopsticks to light it, how can it smell?" ”

"If it weren't for my frugality, how would you have grown so big?" Yu Xiulan picked up Zhao Feng's ears, "Get out, don't be an eyesore here." ”

Zhao Feng instantly lay down on the dish, "I'll get out, I'll get out, Mom, let go." ”

The family is noisy and intimate.

Zhao Mian said with a smile: "I'll cook at noon, I just learned a dish from the eldest sister in the canteen, and the whole family can taste it." ”

Yu Xiulan refused: "I don't need you, you finally came back and rested." ”

Zhao Mian lowered his eyes in disappointment, and counted the rice in the bowl with chopsticks.

Zhao Ke saw it and said: "Mom, my sister didn't come back for a year and a half, you seem to have married my sister, and our family is not my sister's family." ”

"Whoever said it, you just get married, and your mother's family will always be your home." Zhao Feng suffered again, Yu Xiulan poked his head, "In the future, if you dare to spill the water out of your two sisters, I will kick you out." "

Zhao Feng is very wronged, what's the matter with him? He obviously didn't say anything.

And Zhao Mian got a word from his mother, his heart suddenly brightened, and he raised his head and said: "Mom, since you are going back to your own home, don't let me do anything, or I will feel uncomfortable." ”

Yu Xiulan, who was not careful, glanced at her several times, and finally noticed the change in her eldest daughter's mood after returning home, and scolded with hatred: "Why don't you learn from your sister?" Born to work hard! ”

Zhao Ke: "......" people are eating, and the pot is falling from the sky.

Zhao Mian just pursed his lips and smiled.

After that, Yu Xiulan and Zhao Jianguo sat at the table and asked Zhao Mian questions.

Zhao Mian must be a character who reports good news but not bad news, but with Zhao Ke, she learned from all sides that the eldest sister had a good week in the factory, so the couple was quite relieved to hear it.

And the husband and wife had serious business, and they couldn't sit anymore and had to leave the house.

After the meal, Zhao Ke picked up the dishes, and after Zhao Mian washed the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen, he went to check the clothes of the family.

Zhao Yunyun came over to visit the door and was with Zhao Ke

watched Zhao Mian remove all the patches that Zhao Ke had sewn for Zhao Feng before, re-sew the fine stitches, and then went to the kitchen to prepare lunch with satisfaction.

She is too hardworking and virtuous, Zhao Ke and Zhao Yunyun stay next to this eldest sister, they are like waste.

Zhao Yunyun bumped Zhao Ke with her shoulder and asked, "Do you feel ashamed?" "

Zhao Ke asked rhetorically: "When you were at home, were you ashamed?" ”

Zhao Yunyun replied without being stuck at all: "No." ”

"Then I'm two points better than you, and I have no reason to be ashamed."

"Which two points?"

"One point of intimacy, one point of brilliance in the head."

Zhao Yunyun's eyes overflowed with undisguised disgust.

Zhao Ke immediately showed it to her, and shouted sweetly: "Sister, I'll light a fire for you." ”

Zhao Yunyun was speechless, shook goosebumps, and evacuated Zhao Ke's house.

On the first holiday after Zhao Mian left home a week, because of Zhao Ke's gag, the whole family quickly broke away from the unusually enthusiastic hush and warmth and returned to normal.

In the evening, the sisters leaned together.

Zhao Mian said softly: "You can always save me, I am really happy every day now." ”

"How do you say save?" Zhao Ke gently rubbed her fingers, and after only a week, she had a thin callus, and said with a special sense of righteousness, "We are not only sisters, but also comrades-in-arms who support each other under the strict spur of Comrade Yu Xiulan." "

Zhao Mian was amused by her words, "Yes, comrade-in-arms." ”

"What? That Zhao Mian became a worker?! ”

Li Dasheng's mother screamed in disbelief when she heard Li Baoqiang's fucking words in the same village.

Li Baoqiang's mother said affirmatively: "Isn't my daughter-in-law from the production team of Zhao Village, her mother came to see her yesterday and said it in person, it's true." ”

Li Dasheng's mother eagerly asked, "What happened yesterday?" She became a worker yesterday? ”

"It's her sister who gave her the job."

Li Dasheng's mother's eyes shook, and she paced back and forth for two steps.

Li Baoqiang's mother is easy to make a fool of right and wrong, and guessed: "Their family probably wants to climb high branches and marry in the city, but they didn't fancy your family's big victory." ”

Li Dasheng's mother lowered her face, "My family is victorious, their Zhao family is shallow-eyed, and a good job is not given to a son, but to a girl." ”

Li Baoqiang's mother rolled her eyes and came up with a crooked idea: "Isn't it just right for the girl?" Your family has a big victory over her, and the idea has come true,

Won't you be surnamed Li when you work in the future? ”

Li Dasheng's mother's eyes lit up and her eyebrows were overjoyed.

Li Baoqiang's mother said sourly: "My family has already married that useless daughter-in-law, otherwise, my son may be able to have a worker's daughter-in-law, eh, this life is blessed." "

Li Dasheng's mother proudly seemed to have been caught, "I heard about an earthwork in my mother's house before, and those who drink it will give birth to a son, when will I go back and help you ask, you give your daughter-in-law a drink." "

Li Baoqiang's mother was so happy that she urged again and again: "Then you hurry up, save my family from not laying eggs all the time." "

Li Dasheng's mother agreed, but she couldn't stay, so she separated from her and hurried home.

Li Dasheng's face was not good, and when he saw her come back, he complained: "Mom, who are you going to talk to again, I'm hungry." "

"Mom will do it right away." Li Dasheng's mother said "immediately", but she didn't move her feet, and pulled her son to her husband, "If I hadn't talked to Baoqiang's mother, I wouldn't have known the news." "

Li Dasheng said unconcernedly: "What news can there be?" ”

Li Dasheng's mother said: "Big news! That Zhao Mian became a worker! ”

"What?!" Li Dasheng's face was full of shock.

Under the eaves, Accountant Li, who was holding a cigarette stick and smoking, also raised his head when he heard this.

"Her sister transferred it to her." Li Dasheng's mother spoke as fast as a machine gun, "She has to be our family when she is in love with you, and she dares to dislike the poor and love the rich? In two days, you will go into the commune to find her, if she is disobedient, we will find her leader, make her lose her job, see if she is afraid. "

Li Dasheng had a traitor in his eyes, and he was very moved.

Accountant Li still smoked honestly and didn't say anything.

At the same time, Zhao Ke led her sister and her team to dig wild vegetables and pick mushrooms in the mountains.

The nearby places were cleaned, and they went far this time, went out at dawn, and came back at noon.

Zhao Ke and Zhao Mian had lunch and had to rush to the commune.

Tomorrow is the day of the production team's meeting, Zhao Ke has to be at home, and he must come back early without delay, so he has to be busy this afternoon.

Yesterday, Zhao Ke had already gone to a few stores and said that he wanted eggs, and he sent more than a dozen in the morning, and there were also those who asked her to carry things, which were also recorded on paper.

This time, the two of them didn't take anything but eggs and millet with eggs in the basket.

After arriving at the commune, Zhao Ke first took his eldest sister to the post

Courier's home.

The postman's wife was at home, and she was instructed by her husband to take out most of the baskets of eggs and give them to Zhao Ke, and calculate the money with Zhao Ke.

According to a calculation, five eggs can be three cents cheaper than the commune, Zhao Ke gave the money refreshingly, and poured out the millet in her basket, "Trouble sister and brother-in-law, it's not much, just cook porridge twice, don't be polite to me." ”

The postman's wife had a good attitude towards the two sisters, but now she got something white, and her smile was a little bigger, "I know you have to be busy, I won't keep you today, and I will definitely come to the house next time." ”

Zhao Ke agreed, said a few more polite words, took his sister out of the postman's house, and went to Sister Cui's house to deliver eggs.

Sister Cui was also refreshed, and all the eggs brought by Zhao Ke were left.

The two sisters came out of Sister Cui's house, and after a calculation, Zhao Ke took a little effort to build a handful of millet at home and earn a dime.

Zhao Mian followed the whole process and whispered in his sister's ear: "No wonder many people take risks, if the cost is smaller, it will really make money." "

Or their own things, almost no cost, all net income.

Zhao Ke is very sober, "The important thing is that the buyer will not introduce the product, if you go to the black market, it is not worth worrying, we will just these acquaintances in the factory, if necessary, it is a favor to change, not to do business." ”

She is not greedy, and she does not like to take this risk, and it is just right for now, and it is not conspicuous to be able to make a little money.

Of course, Zhao Mian didn't want her to take risks, "I will earn more wages in the future, and our family will get better and better." "

The two of them pushed their bicycles to the supply and marketing cooperative, and a young man in a green military uniform walked by, Zhao Ke glanced back and thought for a while, "Sister, you said that we should find a way to send Zhao Feng to be a soldier, how about it?" ”

Zhao Feng doesn't like to read, and barely finished junior high school, but his physique is as strong as a cow, and it is appropriate to be a soldier at this time, and he may be able to take the military school or be assigned a job in the future.

The most important thing is that he is naturally separated from the heroine Zhuang Lan, how can he have a chance to be a male partner?

Zhao Mian thought about her words seriously, "I haven't heard that there is a recruitment, otherwise write a letter to ask my uncle?" ”

Many times the opportunity is missed because of information asymmetry, Zhao Ke stopped the bicycle, "The postman is well-informed, when I meet him again, tell him, and if there is a letter at that time, tell us." ”

Zhao Ke has never met his uncle a few times, his aunt is from the city, she has been married for more than ten years, and she has never been to Shuangshan Commune once. In this case, they try not to trouble their uncle, and grandma is not embarrassed over there.

As for grandma, will it be with the army

will be angry, Zhao Ke is not worried at all, that is an old lady with more experience and wisdom than Comrade Yu Xiulan.

"Why don't you leave?"

Zhao Ke said: "Sister, just go in and buy it, I'll wait for you outside." ”

"Your classmate, are you hiding?"

Zhao Ke corrected: "It's not hiding, if she knows that I don't work in the bearing factory, she will definitely be yin and yang when she sees me, and I don't bother to break with her." ”

Zhao Mian went in to buy things alone, but he didn't come out alone.

Zhao Ke's high school classmate, Duan Shuyi, a salesperson of the supply and marketing cooperative, walked out with Zhao Mian.

Zhao Mian gave his sister a helpless look, and Zhao Ke's face was calm.

The beautiful girl stepped out of the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, swaying step by step, and when she arrived in front of Zhao Ke, she covered her mouth and smiled, gloating and said: "Zhao Ke, I heard that you are unemployed?" Or do you beg me? I'm looking you for a job? "

Good girl, but not good at talking, Zhao Ke skimmed the corners of his mouth down without a trace, and suddenly pointed behind her, "Ah, mouse." ”

"Where? Where?! Duan Shuyi was immediately frightened and jumped to her feet.

Zhao Ke quickly pulled the eldest sister on the bicycle, waited for the eldest sister to sit firmly, and pedaled far away.

Duan Shucha didn't see the mouse left and right, and when he saw Zhao Ke running away, he knew that he had been fooled, so he was so angry that he stomped his feet and shouted: "Zhao Ke!" I'm not done with you! ”

Zhao Ke's car was about to catch fire, leaving a string of hearty laughter and speeding away.

On the day of the production team meeting.

At seven o'clock, the loudspeaker above the team committee room began to play the serious broadcast of the captain Zhao Xinshan in a loop: "Attention to all members, attention to all members, all members to gather at the drying field on time at eight o'clock, and gather at eight o'clock." "

Zhao Kejia———

Obviously, there was still more than half an hour, Yu Xiulan couldn't sit still in a hurry, "I'm scared that I haven't come back yet, don't be late." ”

Zhao Jianguo took a sip of hot water from the white tea jar, and said unhurriedly: "The two sisters came back together at less than eight o'clock, and she must be faster alone." ”

"What if something happens along the way?"

Zhao Jianguo didn't like to hear this, "Why don't you want to think about the bad if you're good?" ”

Yu Xiulan opened her mouth, "I ......"

Outside the hospital, Zhao Feng's voice sounded: "Mom! My sister is back! "

It didn't matter what Yu Xiulan was going to say just now, she was instantly down-to-earth, walked out of the hall, and urged Zhao Ke: "Look at your gray face, come back quickly."

The house is clean and good-looking. ”

Zhao Ke asked Zhao Feng to deliver the things she bought for the people in the village, and then went to clean up herself.

She changed into a white shirt, wore dark blue trousers issued by the factory before, and walked out with a ponytail, very neat.

"You don't draw your eyebrows and put on lipstick? There is a little bit of complexion. ”

It's not a beauty pageant, Zhao Ke teased Comrade Yu Xiulan: "I'll make a red dot in the center of my eyebrows?" How festive. "

Yu Xiulan whitened her, "Go to the side!" ”

Zhao Ke took a comb, dipped it in water, combed his ponytail a few times, and sat down at the table.

Yu Xiulan took a smock for her, "Wear it outside for you, don't get your clothes dirty." ”

Zhao Ke put it on and hurried to eat.

At 7:50, Zhao Ke's family of four appeared in the drying field.

The people on the drying field sat and talked in a nest, but fortunately it was outdoors, if it was indoors, the noise could overturn the roof.

Many people greeted Zhao Ke's family, especially the young boys and girls, and the voices of greeting Zhao Ke came and went.

&nb

sp; Zhao's second grandmother and her family sat in the westernmost part of the drying field, looking at their family's popularity, with some disdain on their faces.

Zhao Fangfang's mother was worried: "These young babies have been very good with Zhao Ke since they were children, and they will not listen to their families." ”

Hu Hezhi and Zhao Fangfang did not speak.

Zhao Fangfang is two years older than Zhao Mian, and she also played with their sisters when she was a child.

Second grandmother Zhao didn't let her say frustrating words: I've done everything right, don't think about it.

In the middle of the drying field, there is someone named Zhao Ke everywhere, she has to be wet with rain and dew, and she walks all over the field like flowers and butterflies.

The educated youths sat in the southeast corner of the drying field, and Lin Haiyang turned sideways and said to Fu Hang: "Look at Zhao Ke's popularity in the production team, Zhuang Lan is probably hopeless."

I only heard about it before, but now that everyone is together, the educated youth have a real feeling.

In the middle of the field, Zhao Ke was talking to a group of children with a smile, brushing Niu Xiaoqiang's prick hair with his palm, and then walked past them to several young men in the village.

I don't know what to say, Zhao Ke unceremoniously gave a kick to one of the young men with a hippie smile, and the young man made a dodging action, but the expression on his face was not really afraid.

Obviously there is no warmth at all, Fu Hang looked at it, for some reason, a little pantothenic.

Lin Haiyang was puzzled, "What's wrong with you?" Face so dark? ”

/>

The female intellectuals are also looking at Zhao Ke, she is really among them, too conspicuous.

Su Limei was surprised, "Men and women of all ages can eat it." ”

Fang Jing glanced at Zhao Ke, then lowered his head, and his thick bangs blocked his eyes.

Zhuang Lan's eyes were envious, today was not a sunny day, but Zhao Ke seemed to be particularly bright, unlike her......

Ahead, the captain Zhao Xinshan came out of the committee with a loudspeaker, and Zhao Kecai finally sat down and let out a long sigh.

Those ten minutes are quite long and solid ten minutes.

Zhao Yunyun sat near her, moved a small bench and sat over, souring her: Do you regret it? Let you bring so many little brothers, how good it is for you to play with me. ”

Once or twice a year, I'm at ease, but you're ...... Zhao Kehuan chest, I thought you were patronizing Fu Zhiqing, but you didn't look at me.

Zhao Yunyun instantly twisted, "How can there be~"

On the stage, Zhao Xinshan held a loudspeaker to maintain order: "Quiet, it's quiet." ”

"It's started, I can't speak." Zhao Yunyun sat upright and looked ahead.

Zhao Ke also looked at Zhao Xinshan, who was speaking.

Zhao Xinshan coughed his throat, with an official tone, and said loudly: "Today is the annual election meeting of the team, in order to summarize last year's work, accept the supervision of the members of this year's work, and fairly and justly elect the people who will lead the members of our production team to progress in the new year."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and the members below applauded.

Zhao Xinshan continued: "Let me report on my work in the past year......

His boring words, the other members listened honestly, but his daughter Zhao Yunyun made small moves. She tilted towards Zhao Ke a little, her mouth opened very slightly, "His manuscript hasn't been changed for ten years." ”

Zhao Ke tried his best not to move his lips and replied to her: Your father is glaring at you.

Zhao Yunyun glanced at it indifferently and continued: "You said that the teachers of the primary school of the production team are robbed, will anyone rob me of the work of a clerk next year?" ”

"Do you fancy your six points?"

Zhao Yunyun was not convinced, "What, look down on six points?" ”

"It's not that I look down on it, it's that everyone looks down on it."

Of course, this is not absolute, it is that most of the members are too few and do not look down on it.

The women of the production team, who normally work for a day, have eight or nine points of work, and those who are capable of doing so have ten points of work a day

。

Six points of work......

This has to be said that the captain Zhao Xinshan is smart, he arranged such a job for his own girl in the production team, and took the initiative to reduce the work of the clerk to six, and the entire production team did not say anything.

Even if it is said, it is said that Zhao Yunyun is lazy, and that the captain's family is too accustomed to children, but it does not affect Zhao Yunyun's marriage market at all.

Zhao Feng sat behind the two of them, gently poked their shoulders with two fingers, and reminded them in a low voice: The captain has been watching you two for a long time......

Zhao Ke and Zhao Yunyun all looked up at the front.

Zhao Xinshan stared at the two of them solemnly.

He was condescending, everyone could see what state they were in clearly, and the actions of the two of them talking small words thought that they were not obvious, but they were actually extremely conspicuous.

Zhao Ke pushed Zhao Yunyun and asked her to sit far away and don't talk to her.

Zhao Yunyun pouted and moved away from the small bench under her father's urgent staring.

Zhao Xinshan then shifted his gaze, continued to read his manuscript, and then introduced the next person to report.

The composition of the team committee is: Zhao Xinshan, the captain and militia captain, Xu Zhengyi, the deputy captain, Yu Xiulan, the women's captain, and Niu Jiang, the accountant.

In addition, there are serious jobs in the team that can earn points: a bookkeeper is Zhao Yunyun; The custodian's name is He Dongsheng, who was left with a little disability on his leg when he organized the fight against bandits in the county for more than five years, and he was a difficult household in the village; The school's principal, Gu Hongguang, and teacher, Wu Ying, are educated youths.

Among these people, only Gu Hongguang and Wu Ying are educated youths, and the others are locals.

After listening to the report of the team committee, Zhuang Lan looked at the members of the team committee standing at the front and Principal Gu and Teacher Wu sitting in the first row below, and finally realized something, and asked Su Limei in a low voice: Why didn't Principal Gu and Teacher Wu marry the people in the village and integrate into the production team? ”

What she really wants to ask is, the production team is so xenophobic, how did the two of them get a job in the village?

Su Limei is familiar with the young men in the village quickly, and she is well-informed: I heard that June 1st is still the early winter of 62, and a few children in the village are playing on the river behind our house, and one of them fell into the ice hole, and Principal Gu and Teacher Wu jumped in and dragged it out.

Zhuang Lan knew that the artificial trench was not deep, but it was indeed a bit dangerous for children.

"It seems that because of this, Mr. Wu injured his body, so he has not been able to give birth to children." Su Limei said, "You said that it is so serious, can the people in the village not remember it?" ”

Zhuang Lan nodded, indeed.

Su Limei said again: "And the most."

The important thing is that the early batch of educated youths who went to the countryside have all returned to the city, and Principal Gu and the others have not left, they really plan to stay in the production team. ”

Few of the educated youths are willing to stay in the countryside forever, so since they want to return to the city, it is an unstable factor, how can the village be given a heavy responsibility.

Zhuang Lan was thoughtful.

On the stage, after the report was completed, the members in the audience applauded.

Zhao Xinshan stood at the forefront again and said to the crowd: "Next, let's conduct the election of the brigade next year, I will re-explain the rules, and pay attention to it." ”

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened.

"First of all, this year, due to certain circumstances, a teacher from the primary school of the production team has been added to participate in the election."

"In some cases", Zhao Erma's family ———— attracted the attention of the members.

Zhao Ermi's eyes rolled her eyes, "What do you see?" ”

The members laughed.

"Quiet!"

Zhao Xinshan waited for the bottom to calm down, and continued: "Send a note to each person for a while......"

As he spoke, Vice Captain Xu and Accountant Niu brought up a blackboard and put it behind him.

At the top of the blackboard are written: team leader, deputy team leader, women's team leader, and primary school teacher of the production team. On the right side of the blackboard are written the names of the people and the corresponding numbers.

At this time, the Niu accountant showed the notes to the members.

Zhao Xinshan pointed to the blackboard, wrote four names on a piece of paper, and if he couldn't write it, he wrote the corresponding number.

The members below exchanged heads and discussed the rules.

In previous years' elections, everyone elected the most prestigious people in the production team, and there was basically no suspense.

However, this year, there is an extra teacher, which makes the election a little more lively, and the members are full of interest.

"You are not allowed to communicate with each other, and you will vote for yourself."

Zhao Xinshan was very serious, "I'll add one more!" Those who participate in the election do not have the right to vote, and those under the age of 18 do not have the right to vote, do you understand?

"Got it!"

Zhao Ke took advantage of this gap to turn around and taunt his brother: You don't have the right to vote, what are you in a dilemma?

Zhao Feng: "... You don't understand. ”

In fact, he simply forgot that he didn't have the right to vote......

"What's the dilemma?" Zhao Yunyun turned around when she heard the wind.

Zhao Ke glanced at Zhao Feng with a smile and gave it to himself

The younger brother kept face outside and didn't say it.

On the stage, Zhao Xinshan began to read the names of the people participating in the election and asked them to come to the stage: Zhao Xinshan, it is me, Xu Zhengyi...... Zhao Ke......"

Zhao Ke stood up.

"Oooh-oh-"

There was a commotion below, several times more lively than Hu Hezhi just now.

Hu Hezhi's face was not good-looking.

And Zhao Ke is not ashamed, where there is the loudest heckling, he will stare at it.

But don't look at her smiling, the meaning in her eyes is: again, cut you.

The group of young men suddenly showed a little "scared and scared" looks, and then burst into laughter.

The members of the village all laughed at these young people, especially their elders, and even looked at Zhao Ke with a little kindness.

At this time, Zhuang Lan, who was called by name and got up and walked forward from behind, was a little embarrassed.

Zhao Feng applauded vigorously.

On the stage, Zhao Ke glanced at his younger brother's unpromising appearance, and then looked at Zhuang Lan's forced face, and also raised his hand and applauded.

Only then did the young men and women in the village notice Zhuang Lan, who was slowly walking forward from behind, and they all followed Zhao Ke to applaud Zhuang Lan.

The embarrassment on Zhuang Lan's face faded a little, and a smile appeared on her face.

Although it was because of Zhao Ke, she had never received such straightforward kindness from others, and she had ...... before. There is only infinite partiality and belittlement on the part of the family.

Zhuang Lan stood beside Zhao Ke and whispered, "Thank you." ”

Zhao Ke didn't hear clearly, "What?" ”

Zhuang Lan said: I said thank you, I know I can't choose, and I don't mean to fight with you, I just don't want to give up without trying.

On the other side, a trace of disdain flashed in Hu Hezhi's eyes.

Zhao Ke heard her words clearly this time, and said with a smile: "Compete openly, I won't be polite to you." ”

It's a fact that she's dominant; It is also a fact that Zhuang Lan is qualified to compete.

Anyway, it's above board, what's there to mind.

Zhao Xinshan asked people to send notes, and then held a loudspeaker to advise: Remember the numbers, don't write strings, you can't change them if you hand them in!

The bottom responded: "Got it! ”

"Voting is anonymous, no talking to each other, no peeping!"

"Yes."

The pens of the members are all their own pencils, and they borrow them from others if they don't have them.

Wait for them to finish writing and then write again.

The first name and the second name were basically written quickly, and it was not until the third name and the fourth name, especially the fourth name, that the members slowed down.

The few families who received Zhao's second grandmother's things quietly looked to the west, and many people pondered in their hearts: Anyway, anonymous, they secretly wrote Zhao Ke's name, and no one knew.

Zhao Ke was written in the fourth position on the note.

On the other side of the educated youth, the relationship between other educated youths Gu Nian and Zhuang Lan, the third and fourth places all wrote Yu Xiulan and Zhuang Lan.

Only Fu Hang did not hesitate, and wrote down Yu Xiulan and Zhao Ke one by one.

The last pen of Zhao Ke's name was closed, Fu Hang felt a little strange in his heart, and quickly folded the note.

And Zhao's second grandmother's family has several people, the fourth name is written Hu Hezhi, and the third name, they used to write Yu Xiulan, but now the relationship between the two families is stiff, and they all write the captain's daughter-in-law Li Hehua.

And Zhao Xinshan and Li Hehua's family all wrote Li Lotus in the third and Zhao Ke in the fourth.

Fifteen minutes later, Zhao Yunyun went down with a bucket to collect the note, turned around, made sure that it was not left behind, and returned to the stage.

Accountant Niu is responsible for roll call, and Zhao Yunyun is responsible for recording on the blackboard.

"Zhao Xinshan's vote."

"One vote for justice."

"Yu Xiulan's vote."

"Li Lotus has one vote."

"Zhao Ke one vote."

Every time she reads a vote, Zhao Yunyun draws a straight stroke under the corresponding name.

Some people have been unbeatable from the beginning, such as Zhao Xinshan and Xu Zhengyi, one after another, without accident.

And the tickets of Yu Xiulan, Li Hehua, and Zhao Ke are interspersed with being read repeatedly.

At first, the three of them were more even, and slowly, the orthography under Zhao Ke's name began to be longer than that of the two.

Zhao Ke stabilized.

Zhao Yunyun turned her back to the audience, squeezing her eyebrows at Zhao Ke on the stage while writing.

Zhao Ke ignored her, his eyes did not squint, and he was very calm.

Zhuang Lan, who was beside Zhao Ke, was not surprised that she did not have many votes, and her expression was normal.

But Hu Hezhi's face became worse and worse.

And as the roll call progressed to the later stage, the expressions of the members below became more and more weird.

It's really Hu Hezhi's votes are too few.

Zhao's second grandmother's family swept their angry eyes over several members.

> the members who were glanced at were weak-hearted, and their eyes seemed to be speechless when they looked at each other and asked each other: Why do you all write Zhao Ke?!

But what can I do?

None of them expected that everyone would rewrite quietly and anonymously.

These members secretly decided that they must return their things after they go back, and they can't afford to mess with Zhao Erma.

On the stage, Accountant Niu finished reading the last note, carefully fished it out in the bucket with his hand, turned the bucket upside down again, emptied, and announced the end of the roll call after confirming that there was no more.

Then he counted the votes for each person and marked them below.

Blackboard ———

A total of 189 members participated in the voting today, and 32 votes were abstained.

Zhao Xinshan 150 votes. Xu Zhengyi 120 votes.

Yu Xiulan 99 votes. Li Lotus 58 votes. Zhao Ke 117 votes. Hu Hezhi 23 votes. Zhuang Lan 17 votes.

This number of votes clearly shows that a large part of Zhao Ermao's gifts did not choose Hu Hezhi, and then some members who did not want to choose and did not abstain voted for Zhuang Lan.

The eyes of Zhao's second grandmother's family were almost on fire.

Hu Hezhi stood above, feeling that everyone was watching his jokes, and the green tendons on his neck were flushed.

Everyone in the exhibition hall was discussing, and they all thought that the position had been determined and there was no controversy.

The captain is still Zhao Xinshan, the deputy captain is Xu Zhengyi, the women's director is Yu Xiulan, and the primary school teacher must be Zhao Ke.

However, when Zhao Xinshan stepped forward, his brows were tightly locked, "According to the number of votes, I will continue to serve as the captain, and the vice captain is Xu Zhengyi." ”

Xu Zhengyi took a step forward and nodded at the members below.

Every time one was announced, the members below applauded, and then raised their hands to their chests, waiting for the announcement of the women's director.

Zhao Xinshan's face was expressionless, and he announced in a straight voice: "Women's director, Zhao Ke." ”

What's that?

There was silence below, and everyone was staring at Zhao Xinshan on the stage.

Even Zhao Ke, Yu Xiulan and others on the stage all looked at him sideways in shock.

Women's Director, who?

Did you hear that right?

Zhao Xinshan repeated again: "Women's director, Zhao Ke." Then he read: The primary school teacher of the production team, Yu Xiulan.

Suddenly, everyone was in an uproar, like water in a pot of oil, and it was boiling.

Zhao Ke is the women's director?!

r/> Yu Xiulan is a primary school teacher?!

Not to mention the bottom, Zhao Ke and Yu Xiulan, the mother and daughter, were shocked and dazed.

Zhao Ke: She? Women's Director?!

In previous elections, Li Lotus accompanied her, and it is not surprising that she was still not elected this year.

But this year, the result is really a bit outrageous.

Someone at the bottom objected: Captain, what's going on? Shouldn't Yu Xiulan be the women's director and Zhao Ke be the teacher?

Zhao Xinshan replied solemnly: According to the number of votes, Zhao Ke's votes are higher than Yu Xiulan's.

"Isn't that right?" Some people questioned, "Isn't it the correspondence who chooses which position?" ”

"In previous years, our village was chosen like this." Zhao Xinshan affirmed, "The person with the highest number of votes is the captain, followed by the vice captain, then the women's director, and so on."

The reason is that it can be elected before, and the members think that it is the corresponding position.

The prestige of the people in the village, who is which position, everyone knows in their hearts, and there has never been such a vote.

The members looked at each other.

"Comrade Zhao Dezhi, the former captain, and Comrade Liu Sanni, the former women's captain, did leave a message in our brigade: no one stipulates that women cannot be captains, and no one stipulates that the women's director must be a woman.

Xu Zhengyi is 57 years old this year, and she is about to retire, but Yu Xiulan's votes will increase year by year because of her re-election. It was precisely because of these words that Zhao Xinshan was a little jealous of Yu Xiulan's influence in the village.

And as soon as he said this, Vice Captain Xu and Accountant Niu were both impressed, and they nodded one after another.

Yu Xiulan also remembered that there was indeed such a thing, especially what her mother said, so that her expression was quite weird.

Only Zhao Ke is still not in the state.

And at the bottom, a member asked: "Can you choose this?" Can they? ”

Others chimed in.

This "they" are not only aimed at Zhao Ke as a women's director, but also at Yu Xiulan as a teacher.

The current situation, of course, was also unexpected by Zhao Xinshan, but ...... A woman director has no hindrance to the production management of the production team, not to mention that there is no harm to him at all when he is replaced.

First, the newcomer will not affect his power, and second, if Yu Xiulan is not even competent as a teacher, it will definitely affect Yu Xiulan's prestige in the village.

The more Zhao Xinshan thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was very beneficial to him, so he replied very solemnly: Ginseng

The people elected with the production team are all good comrades who have been literate and have been actively making progress, and they cannot be denied without giving them a chance. ”

"Besides, it was clearly said before the vote that the note cannot be changed if it is handed in, and the rules must be followed, otherwise the management of the production team is not chaotic?"

Zhao Xinshan is in the production team, he is very prestigious, and it is indeed voted by everyone one by one, so the doubts are gradually decreasing.

If no one questions it anymore, it's basically going to be settled.

At this time, Zhao Ermi's grandmother stood up suddenly, why? Is my family and Zhi not as good as her Yu Xiulan?

The educated youths in the southeast corner looked at each other, and the meaning in their eyes was almost the same: No matter what, Zhuang Lan is better at teaching than a woman, right?

Yu Xiulan, one of the parties involved, recovered a little consciousness from the stiffness, and then the anger that came up was surging, why? A primary school teacher, I Yu Xiulan can't do it anymore?

This situation was not in Zhao Ke's plan at all, Zhao Ke was afraid that her mother would be impulsive, so she really gave it up, and hurriedly said to Zhao Xinshan: "Captain, I want to ......" to resign as the women's director.

Before she finished speaking, Zhao Xinshan raised his hand to stop: Zhao Ke, you have to believe in yourself, although you are young, you are still very capable. ”

Zhao Ke did not deny that she had some ability, but on the one hand, she endured the fiery gaze of her mother, and on the other hand, she had a headache when she thought of the extremely difficult women with different personalities.

"Captain, I..."

Zhao Xinshan interrupted again: "Rules are rules, but I know that young people are not very experienced, so I will take a step back and give you a three-month probationary period, if you are not competent or unwilling to continue to serve, we will discuss it again." ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't give Zhao Ke a chance to oppose at all, and turned his head to ask the opinions of the members.

The members exchanged a few words with each other and said "no opinion" in a sloppy manner.

Zhao Xinshan: "Then it's decided." ”

Zhao Ke: "......"

What else can she say, three months is three months, and after three months she will quit.
