Chapter 331: I wasn't manly when I was young?
Li Jingan pouted and looked at Zhou Kexin who was talking nonstop, and said impatiently: "Big sister, you are more nagging than grandma."
"You want to be beaten again, you little brat?"
Li Jing'an said nothing. Zhou Kexin glared at him. Zhou Yong looked at the siblings and laughed.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much and Zhou Yong was deeply moved.
After dinner, Zhou Yong couldn't let go of the bicycle that the children bought for him. Gradually, he realized a problem: where did they raise the money to buy the bicycle?
Li Caiyun quickly gave him the answer. Zhou Yong learned the whole story and returned to his room to reflect.
It is wrong for children to deceive their parents, but their purpose was just to give him a birthday surprise.
Zhou Yong sat on the edge of the kang, feeling mixed emotions.
He felt both relieved and guilty, because he realized that he still spent too little time with his children. If he communicated with them more, the children would not be able to hide something from him easily.
Thinking about these things, Zhou Yong felt guilty.
With a creaking sound——
Li Caiyun came into the house carrying a triangular bag.
Zhou Yong glanced at her, and Li Caiyun looked at the expression on his face: "What's wrong with you? You look depressed."
“I don’t think I’m a good enough father…”
Li Caiyun listened to him quietly. When Zhou Yong finished speaking, she said, "You have done very well. How can anyone be perfect?"
Zhou Yong remained silent. Li Caiyun smiled and changed the subject: "I also prepared a birthday present for you..."
A black cotton wool coat appeared in front of Zhou Yong, and he immediately laughed.
Li Caiyun looked at the expression on his face and said, "Try on this coat..."
Zhou Yong was very obedient. He put on his coat and looked at himself in front of the mirror in the closet: "Not bad, I like it."
Li Caiyun arranged his clothes: "I knew you would look great in this coat."
Zhou Yong grinned with his teeth bared. Li Caiyun looked up at him and said, "I find that you become more manly as you get older."
Zhou Yong didn't like what he heard.
"Why, I wasn't manly when I was young?"
Li Caiyun chuckled: "That's not the case, it's just that it can't be compared with now..."
Zhou Yong put his arms around Li Caiyun's waist, ready to get close to her, but Zhou Ling came breathlessly.
"Brother, people from the County Family Planning Commission are here."
"People from the Family Planning Commission? Not from the Family Planning Office?"
Zhou Ling panted heavily: "Brother, could I have made a mistake with the people from the Family Planning Commission and the Family Planning Office?"
The Family Planning Commission received an anonymous report that a family in Huaixi Village had exceeded the birth limit, so the Commission bypassed the Hongqi Township Family Planning Office and went directly to arrest the person.
"Then what's the point of you coming to see me?"
Zhou Ling froze for a moment: "Brother, don't you go over and take a look?"
Look at shit!
Because of Zhou Yong, the number of over-births in Huaixi Village occurred frequently, causing him to be criticized by leaders repeatedly in meetings.
It's time for the villagers to restrain themselves, otherwise there's no telling how things will develop.
"But?"
"Who are you? Come over and take a look. After all, you are the director of women's affairs..."
Zhou Ling glanced at her elder brother, turned around and left the Li family.
Zhou Yong narrowed his eyes, thinking that some people just didn't know what it meant to quit while they were ahead.
They rely on the fact that their families have some money and are not afraid of being punished for having more children than allowed. Not only do they commit crimes in defiance of the law, but they also don't know how to behave in the society. Where can they escape without being reported?
The next day, Zhou Yong went to the brigade early and heard from Li Ming that the pregnant woman who was taken away by the Family Planning Commission yesterday was more than five months pregnant.
Zhou Yong pursed his lips after hearing this, and soon Zhou Ling came into the office with a tired look on her face.
Li Ming asked: "The child was aborted?"
Zhou Ling nodded, she sat down and said: "It was a man, Chu Lao Ba's wife fainted due to excitement..."
Li Ming sighed continuously, and Zhou Yong thought to himself: What a sin.
The landline phone rang and Zhou Yong answered it.
He Xiulan called to explain to Zhou Yong about the Family Planning Commission's arrest last night.
In fact, He Xiulan didn't need to explain, and Zhou Yong also understood what was going on, because the direction of some things was simply beyond their control.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yong was stunned for a moment, and then he got busy with his work.
At around eight o'clock, Li Ming went to the vegetable greenhouse base, and Zhou Yong went to the county hospital at nine o'clock.
Li Hongjun's health has recovered well and the bruises on his face have mostly faded.
Zhou Yong chatted with him and then went to find Cao Biao.
Since the crackdown began, everyone in the Criminal Police Brigade has been very busy.
Zhou Yong arrived at an unfortunate time, as Cao Biao, Xing Laoqi and Liu Dazhuang were all out on missions.
After leaving the Criminal Police Brigade, Zhou Yong looked at the time. He went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables and sent them to the hospital.
These days, Zhao Chunhua has been responsible for the couple's three meals a day. It is inappropriate to always ask others to spend money. Although they are in-laws, it is better to maintain a sense of boundaries on some things.
Zhou Yong bought some meat, ribs and chickens, and asked Li Hongjun's wife to deliver them to Cao's house.
After Li Hongjun's wife left, he smiled and said, "Zhou Yong, you are the one who thinks things through."
Zhou Yong glanced at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense to me."
Normally, Li Hongjun and his wife should have thought of this a long time ago. The main reason was that there were so many people visiting the patient in the past few days that his wife had no time to go out to buy groceries.
Li Hongjun grinned and didn't mention the money for the food, because he knew that even if he gave Zhou Yong money, he would not accept it.
The two chatted for a while, and waited for Li Hongjun's wife to come back. Zhou Yong looked at the time and went home.
Cao Biao and his two companions were on a mission and their return date was uncertain, so it was impossible for him to stay in the hospital and wait for them to come back.
Zhou Yong had just arrived home when Zhang Guifang told him that Yang Sen asked him to take some time to visit the township government.
Find some time?
This word is used very subtly.
Zhou Yong smiled and said, since we have time, let’s talk about it tomorrow!
In the afternoon, Zhou Yong plunged into the vegetable greenhouse base to study vegetable hydroponic cultivation technology, and he did not leave until the end of get off work.
The next morning at around eight o'clock, Zhou Yong went to the township government. When he arrived, Yang Sen was in a meeting.
Zhou Yong waited for more than an hour. After the meeting, he went into the township head's office while talking to Yang Sen.
Huaixi Village is going to build a paper mill, a winery and a flour mill next year. Yang Sen has a friend who is engaged in construction under the name of Qingmu County No. 2 Construction Company and wants to undertake the factory construction project in Huaixi Village.
Zhou Yong glanced at Yang Sen and said, "Village Chief Yang, you don't know that due to the limited funds of the construction team, we have to build the factory building ourselves."
Yang Sen smiled and said, "Building the factory by ourselves can save a lot of money, but the question is, is the safety of the factory guaranteed?"
Zhou Yong lowered his eyes and then slowly raised them: "Village Chief Yang, of course there is a safety guarantee. After all, all the houses in Huaixi Village were built by ourselves..."
Yang Sen was speechless and just smiled dryly.
Zhou Yong looked at the expression on his face and changed the subject: "Village Chief Yang, if we wait until the brigade has sufficient funds to build a factory in the future, it will cause trouble to Village Chief Yang's friends..."
After all, Yang Sen is Zhou Yong's leader, and as a subordinate, he cannot embarrass his leader.
Yang Sen smiled and said, "That's it!"
Zhou Yong responded: "Village Chief Yang, if there is nothing else, I will go back."
Yang Sen said, "Since we are here, let's go out for a drink at noon, and you can come back after lunch."
Zhou Yong saw through Yang Sen's little thoughts and didn't mind being the scapegoat, so he agreed immediately.
But…
