Chapter 216 I will definitely be the director of women’s affairs!
Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and it was Li Ming's turn to be on duty. The boy went home at night and visited his relatives in the same village in the morning. Then he went to the brigade.
As a result, he found that the door lock of the brigade's warehouse had been pried open and a lot of items were missing.
Zhou Yong went to the brigade and asked someone to find Sun Qing. After he checked with the account book, he found that the items missing were all precious medicinal materials.
The reason these medicinal herbs were not sold was because the prices were relatively low last year. I had planned to sell them this year, but I didn’t expect to lose most of them.
People from the county public security bureau and the commune police station were working in Huaixi Village, so Zhou Yong asked someone to invite them over.
The theft case on the brigade's side was investigated by comrades from the police station. When the incident happened, the villagers were in a panic.
They were panicked, and Li Ming was even more panicked than them because he was listed as the first suspect.
The comrades from the police station worked directly in the public security brigade, and each suspect was called in for questioning.
After a busy day, Zhou Yong finally returned home. He didn't even eat and fell asleep.
The next day, Zhou Yong was working in the Public Security Brigade with his colleagues from the police station to investigate a theft case. Suddenly, he discovered something: he seemed to have not seen Xiao Ba since yesterday.
"Has anyone seen Xiao Ba?"
The people from the public security brigade looked at each other in bewilderment. The police station comrade asked in confusion, "Who is Xiao Ba?"
After Zhou Yong introduced Xiao Ba, the comrades at the police station noticed something was wrong.
"Since he works for the Public Security Brigade, why doesn't he come to work?"
The people in the public security brigade have been very busy these two days. Normally, Xiao Ba should be on duty.
But no one saw him, so his disappearance aroused the suspicion of the police station comrades.
Someone immediately went to Xiaoba's house, but he was not at home.
And according to his family, Xiao Ba went out last night and never came back.
Zhou Yong immediately used the radio loudspeaker to find Xiao Ba, hoping that he would come to the public security brigade to work as soon as he heard the broadcast.
As a result, after waiting for more than an hour, there was still no sign of Xiao Ba, so the police station comrades went to his home.
After on-site investigation, it was found that a part of Xiao Ba's clothes was missing at some point, and all the money in the house was gone.
The brigade's theft case focused on Xiao Ba because his disappearance was too strange.
Almost all of Xiao Ba's relatives were visited by comrades from the police station, who then conducted a large-scale investigation in the village. However, Xiao Ba seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, with no one seen alive or dead.
Until the end of the first month of the lunar year, there was still no progress in the theft case. As for the Han family poisoning case, the suspect Bai Jie absconded while receiving medical treatment.
The incident started when Bai Jie was just taken away. Since she was taken to the police station, Bai Jie has not spoken a word. For more than ten days, she was either laughing or crying. The public security comrades suspected that she had mental problems.
However, no one expected that Bai Jie would escape during the medical treatment, and now the Public Security Bureau has issued a wanted warrant.
As soon as the incident happened, the villagers of Huaixi Village were in an uproar. Bai Jie's escape confirmed her crime of poisoning.
As for Xiao Ba's whereabouts, there are many different opinions, but Zhou Yong guessed that Xiao Ba's disappearance was related to Bai Jie.
But there was no evidence for this kind of thing, so Zhou Yong didn't tell anyone.
In February, the topic of conversation among people when they got together was still Bai Jie and Xiao Ba, and in March there were still many people talking about this.
In April, preparations for spring sowing began one after another, and Zhou Yong was again called in for a talk by Xu Jianmin.
Because Huaixi Village still does not have a women's director, family planning work is very difficult to carry out.
There are complaints about family planning in other villages, but only Huaixi Village is a peaceful place.
When Zhou Yong came back from the commune, he looked at Li Baotian and Accountant Sun and couldn't help sighing.
"Zhou Yong, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as Zhou Yong explained the situation, Accountant Sun smacked his lips, took out his pipe, opened his pipe bag, and filled the pipe with tobacco leaves.
Li Baotian knew that Zhou Yong was taking the pressure on him. He thought for a while and said, "If nothing works, let's just draw lots!"
If it weren't for family planning, there would be a lot of people who want to become the director of women's affairs. But now, no one wants this position.
Zhou Yong raised his eyebrows: "Draw lots? Who should draw lots?"
There isn't even a candidate to draw lots for. Are these grown men supposed to draw lots and choose a women's director?
Li Baotian froze, realizing that what he said was inappropriate.
Accountant Sun took a puff of his pipe and said, "If I really can't choose anyone, let Xu Jianmin send someone for me!"
Zhou Yong smiled bitterly: "I told my senior brother about this, and he rejected my request."
The women's director must be selected from the village because only local people understand the situation in the village, and even if outsiders are sent here, the work will still not be carried out.
Just when the three of them were having a headache about this matter, Shao Wenjing came.
She volunteered to take the position of director of women's affairs, but was opposed by Accountant Sun on the spot.
Shao Wenjing looked at Accountant Sun, whose face was as dark as ink: "Grandpa, I have the ability, why don't you let me do this job?"
Accountant Sun, who was already quite old, spoke in a cold voice: "Don't you know why Qi Shurong resigned? Don't you know why her family was ostracized? Don't you know why she was hospitalized?"
Qi Shurong thought that she would have a peaceful life after resigning from her job, but she didn't expect that those who had undergone sterilization would always make things difficult for their entire family in disguised ways whenever they saw their family members.
Because of these things, Qi Shurong now dares not go out, because many people scold her when they see her.
Some people even poured feces and urine on the front door of Qi Shurong's house, and some people even defecated and urinated on the front door of her house every night.
The facts are there. Shao Wenjing wants to be the director of the Women's Department. How can Accountant Sun agree?
Li Baotian also looked disapproving. He advised Shao Wenjing kindly: "It is true that you have the ability, but the problem is that this is a job that offends people. So you should give it up to avoid bringing disaster to your family..."
These words were obviously for her own good, but Shao Wenjing said: "Village head, as a village cadre, how can you be afraid of those unruly people? If I become the director of women's affairs, I will never let what happened to Qi Shurong happen to me..."
Li Baotian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Shao Wenjing, whose face was full of confidence. He was so angry that he laughed.
"Since you said so, I have nothing to say."
Accountant Sun felt that Shao Wenjing was really ungrateful, and his tone was mixed with anger: "If you want to be the director of women's affairs, then divorce Sun Qing first. You are not my Sun family's daughter-in-law, you can do whatever you want."
At this point, it was obvious that Accountant Sun was really angry.
Li Baotian and Zhou Yong were both good people, and Shao Wenjing would give in. As a result, she said, "Grandpa, what do you mean by that?"
Accountant Sun remained silent with a cold face. Shao Wenjing nodded repeatedly: "Okay, since you said so, I will be the director of women's affairs!"
Shao Wenjing left after saying this. Accountant Sun slapped the desk angrily and stood up suddenly.
"How dare you, Shao Wenjing, say such a thing?"
Accountant Sun walked out after he finished speaking. Li Baotian and Zhou Yong looked at each other. Neither the father-in-law nor the son-in-law had expected that things would develop to this point.
Li Baotian hurriedly got up and chased after the furious Accountant Sun. Zhou Yong frowned slightly, his mouth dry and he picked up the teacup to drink some water.
After a while, a quarrel was heard in the brigade yard. Zhou Yong put down his teacup, wiped his mouth, and went out to see what was going on.
