Chapter 239 Killing a Pig to Liven Up the Fun
Xie Yun smiled and said, "I'm certainly not an expert, but this is the basic logic of how we work. Before we start something, we need to clearly consider its necessity, feasibility, implementation plan, risk avoidance, its social significance, possible adverse consequences, and how to maximize its benefits while minimizing any negative impacts. This logic applies to everything. You see, I've said so much, but it's really just a framework, without any details, because I really don't understand it."
Deputy County Chief Zhong smiled and said, "It's okay. You don't understand, but Minister Liang does. That's what we were talking about just now. The Armed Forces will arrange a target practice session at Meishan Commune, where there are many mountains, making it convenient for this purpose. They will be stationed there for a while to help Lao Yun understand the situation and arrange for the arrest, so that the matter can be resolved once and for all. Then they will continue to be stationed there for a while to provide additional training for the local militia and have them strengthen patrols in the future."
Xie Yun nodded and gave Minister Liang a thumbs up.
Liang Tao laughed and said, "Don't give me that. You can think of all this, and you're just teasing me. I'm not a child, and I don't need your praise to be motivated."
Xie Yun followed suit and turned his thumb upside down and booed him.
Liang Tao just shouted "Hey", causing everyone to laugh. Secretary Li said, "You really can't accept praise or criticism, and you're really hard to please."

Xie Yun came and went in a hurry, leaving after discussing things with everyone. They were all experienced seniors in struggle and had much more practical experience than her. She was still mostly talking on paper.
After she left, Secretary Li and several others began to deploy the action and called the president of the court, the director of the public security bureau, and the director of the Women's Federation to hold a meeting.
In the spring of 1974, the destroyed public security, procuratorial and judicial organs were restored. The political and legal groups were reorganized into the courts and public security bureaus, but the procuratorate remained. The county party committee's departments and organs were also restructured.
This is actually a signal that the overall situation is improving.
However, this restoration is still at the county level, and the commune level remains the same as before.
Therefore, in this operation, the police and the courts are the main bodies, and the troops are assisting.
The Women's Federation wrote a report titled "Parental-arranged marriages still exist and continue to threaten women's survival rights and interests" and submitted it to the higher-level Women's Federation.
Secretary Li planned to execute the crime first and report to his superiors later after all the people were arrested.
But he summoned Yun Weiran to the county and asked him to bring Liu Chengjun and the other two as well. He explained the county's plan to them, then said to them with a smile, "If this matter gets out of hand, it might cause some controversy later on. Some might question whether our punishment is excessive, so we must do our best to avoid such adverse effects. What are your thoughts on this?"
Liu Chengjun said directly: "Yes!"
Secretary Li couldn't help but praise the kid for his decisiveness. It was so neat and efficient.
Liu Chengjun's thinking is basically the same as Xie Yun's. This thing should be done and must be done. There is nothing wrong with it. Since there is nothing wrong with it, of course it should be done on a big scale. What's wrong with safeguarding women's basic right to survival? Who dares to say that this is wrong?
"Let the All-China Women's Federation first issue a document reaffirming freedom of marriage and rejecting any form of arranged marriage. Any marriage against a woman's will is illegal. With such a document, our actions will be justified."
Secretary Li said, "It's not easy to get the All-China Women's Federation to issue a document. We don't know anyone in the All-China Women's Federation. If we report it one level at a time, it will probably take some time. If there's any problem at any stage, the matter won't be completed."
Kong Lingyun cursed him in his heart, "You old fox! You just want them to work? Why don't you just say it directly? Why don't you beat around the bush and hide it?"
He said, "We know people, and we'll figure out a way to do this. We're here to promote social progress, and this is what we're striving for, so naturally we should contribute to it."
Secretary Li nodded and said, "I thought so too. I didn't say it directly just now because I didn't want to embarrass you. Since you brought it up, let's discuss the specifics. It's not appropriate for you to come forward in the early stages of this matter, but your contribution will be recorded in the archives, and we will definitely not bury you."
Kong Lingyun felt ashamed of his previous thoughts for a few seconds, and then discussed the details with everyone.
Liu Chengjun's mother works at the All-China Women's Federation, holding a high position. She doesn't live with her and her father, making it inconvenient for her to go to work.
Therefore, mobilizing the All-China Women's Federation to issue documents is difficult for Qushui County, but it is relatively simple for them.
☆
Just as the entire Qushui County was preparing to rectify Majiagou, Qian Gaoyun's new film was finally about to be released in early October.
On the night when "Country Sisters" was broadcast in Liushutun, all the members came out in full force, leaving no one at home.
Everyone already knows that this movie stars Qian Gaoyun, a child from Liushu Village. Although she didn't stay there very long, she brought so much joy to everyone. Everyone likes this innocent and optimistic child.
Of course, the reason so many people gathered together wasn't just because of her and the movie.
Zhang Guangzong waved his hand and killed a pig to add to the fun.
The loudspeaker announced, "It's harvest time. We've been busy lately and everyone's worked hard. The brigade has decided to stew some meat to nourish everyone. No need to cook tonight. Let's go to the threshing ground and eat a big pot meal."
With a few large pots set up and white flour buns steamed, the whole Liushu Village is filled with fragrance.
After finishing their work, everyone went home, got their bowls and chopsticks, and ran to the threshing ground to eat. Each person had a big bowl of stew with meat, ribs, beans, eggplant, potatoes, and plenty of steamed buns!
The place was bustling with people and the atmosphere was even more lively than during the Chinese New Year.
Ren Xiuzhen wiped the soup from the bowl with the last bite of steamed bun in her hand, stuffed the bun into her mouth, rubbed her stomach, and said with emotion: "The big pot meal is so delicious!"
She ate two large steamed buns, which was incredible. In her previous life, these two steamed buns would have been enough for her to eat for a whole day.
At the time, to lose weight and maintain her figure, she was so obsessed with calories that she would count each grain of rice, feeling guilty for eating even one extra bite. Even though white rice smelled so good, she didn't dare eat it all the time. For her health, she would specifically eat brown rice, which had a slightly inferior texture.
Before eating hot pot and malatang, you should rinse them with water to prevent consuming too much oil.
After drinking milk tea late at night, I would do plank exercises there.
I run, do Pilates, and do intermittent fasting every day, but my weight goes up instead of down. I also have various problems such as hair loss, uterine cold, stomach pain, hypoglycemia, sweating, and irregular menstruation.
Who would have thought that she would have a chance to eat two big steamed buns and a big bowl of vegetables in one meal?
She was so satisfied with her food that she didn't worry about her figure or weight at all. If anyone told her to eat less, she would definitely fight! Didn't you see Sister Yue Zheng and Deputy County Chief Xie also ate two big steamed buns? Brother Xie Shen even ate four!
