Chapter 172: Deception
Liu Shiwen's eyes widened immediately and said:
"Hey, hey, Captain Qin! Xiao Qin! What are you doing? Why are you welcomed to join? Weren't you the one who was most opposed yesterday? Why don't you come up and try to persuade them first? You, you guys..."
Qin Yi let go of Su Tong's hand, glanced at Liu Shiwen, and said seriously:
"Political Commissar Liu, I just suddenly feel that we should respect Su Tong's ideas!"
Liu Shiwen scratched the back of his head, somewhat unable to accept this sudden turn of events.
Although he knew that Su Tong's initiative to join was indeed the best solution at present, the higher authorities sent them here to understand the girl's true thoughts...
He volunteered to take on this task because he was afraid that the girl would be wronged! He was afraid that she would act on impulse, that she would not understand the situation, that she would be bewitched by others...
Such a good little girl, it's not her turn to charge into battle! There are so many grown men here!
But Su Tong...
Su Tong was sober and rational. A rural girl could have the lofty goal of joining the army, the ambition to serve the motherland, the courage to accept the test of the organization, and the confidence to solve problems for the organization. Her nagging seemed like a stumbling block...
And this Comrade Xiao Qin...
Yes! Comrade Xiao Qin has never been an impulsive person.
Although he is still young, he is the captain of the action team, shouldering heavy responsibilities and the success or failure of the entire operation. He pays more attention to the composition of the team members than anyone else. What does it mean that he welcomes Su Tong...
Means recognition.
Liu Shiwen thought about Su Tong's unfathomable medical skills, and knew that there must be something about her that he didn't know. How could he really treat such a girl as an ordinary country girl.
If she really had that ability, how could they use those outdated concepts to restrain her wings.
Liu Shiwen sighed again, and finally smiled slowly.
On the way back, Liu Shiwen stared at Qin Yi, who was driving seriously, for a long time and couldn't help asking:
"Xiao Qin! Regardless of our positions, I am at least a few years older than you. I ask you as your elder brother, tell me the truth. Since you are willing for Su Tong to participate in the operation, why did you strongly oppose it for such a long time?"
Qin Yi held the steering wheel and said without looking away:
"As the captain of the action team, I have sufficient reasons to object."
After a pause, he continued, "As a friend, I recognize Su Tong's abilities and am willing to support her in pursuing her ideals."
Liu Shiwen clicked his tongue and didn't respond, staring at the shaky road in front of the headlights.
The car drove a long way away before he suddenly turned his head and glared at Qin Yi:
"But I feel like you already knew that Su Tong would agree! And you were so fiercely opposed before, was it to get her more benefits in front of those old guys in the future?!"
Qin Yi then slowly turned his head and glanced at Liu Shidong, "Political Commissar Liu, you said this, I didn't say a word."
The next day, people from the province came.
Jiang Pinglu led the way to Yunshan Village and formally notified Su Tong.
The notice was written very vaguely, only saying that she should go to the provincial capital to assist with work for a period of time. It did not say which department she would assist in, nor what she would assist in doing. However, the notice was stamped with a big red stamp of the Provincial Public Security Bureau.
The leader who issued the notice came and went in a hurry, and Secretary Wu, who got the news and rushed over, was completely confused...
I only remember that the comrades from the province spoke to him earnestly before leaving, asking him to do his best to solve Comrade Su Tong's family problems and do a good job of the aftermath so that Comrade Su Tong would not have any worries.
He didn't understand why the province's work was assisted by such a little girl. Hadn't all the human traffickers been arrested yet?
Before he could ask Su Tong what his worries were, Su Tong stuffed a net bag with two cans of malted milk in it into his hand and made only one request -
She hopes the two old men can help her look for a house.
Secretary Wu was so scared that he quickly stuffed the malted milk back and said, "Tongya! You can't make mistakes in your political stance! Anyone from the Wu family can help you with this house, but you can't involve the stinky old ninth! I won't hold you accountable this time because you're working for the province, but don't talk nonsense next time!"
Su Tong said seriously:
"Secretary Wu, you insist on making me speak my mind out! I am a lonely man and this is the only house I have left. It was not easy for me to fix it up and get it into its current state! My own mother and sister can't stand seeing me do well and always try to take advantage of me. How can I feel at ease showing my house to others? In the end, I will have no place to stay when I come back!
Those two stinky old men are staying here temporarily anyway, so I asked them to show me the house. They dare not disobey me. At least they dare not be so bold as to occupy my house! At least in the end, this house is still mine!"
When Party Secretary Wu heard this, his face turned red and white. Although Su Tong did not say it, the work of the cowshed was meant to be seen by Sanlangzi, but in the end, Sanlangzi saw it!
This girl is scared!
But it made sense when she thought about it. Even if she let Chou Laojiu look at the house, they wouldn't dare to occupy it. And if she showed it to others, it would be hard to say what would happen. Many people were really envious of her new things.
Besides, the superiors have also said that we must do a good job of cleaning up the mess. If the things are really lost, he will be responsible for it. Anyway, Chou Laojiu has nowhere else to live, so it's not unreasonable to show her the house at the same time. Thinking about it this way, this is actually the best solution.
Secretary Wu immediately made the decision, "Okay! I'll give them less work later, and give them a good lesson. When you're away, let them focus on looking after the house for you, and make sure it's in perfect condition when you come back."
Then he went back happily, weighing the two cans of malted milk with confidence.
He thought that this girl was quite active and thought more thoroughly than he did.
It only takes him a word to let those two stinky old men look at a house. Malted milk is not easy to buy. You need a note and a ticket. He can use this to shut up his wife at home.
His wife also received the IOU and planned to go to Sun Qiang's house to collect the debt in the next two days. Sun Qiang's parents were like quails in front of them and dared not to deny the debt!
This girl turned around and returned the money to him, making him do a favor and save face. It was really like that.
Thinking about it this way, I suddenly understood why the province asked her to cooperate. This girl is not simple! She will have a great future!
Su Tong breathed a sigh of relief. Although Secretary Wu lacked a sense of the overall situation and was a bit selfish, he also had one outstanding advantage - he was easy to fool.
