Chapter 15 Returning Home
Now with five more tractors, delivering grain or transporting stones for land reclamation has become much easier, which greatly improves efficiency.
At this moment, the director was thinking in his mind whether he should check whether there were any educated youth's family members working in the tractor factory, let them get married, and then give them a place in university. Is it possible to have such a good thing?
Song Youliang looked at his daughter in disbelief. He didn't expect that his daughter could lie without changing her expression or panic, and attribute such a great credit to her parents.
Then he saw Li Qiang blushing and about to leave, and something moved him, so he called him, "Qiangzi, please stay for a while."
Li Qiang thought that he was trying to take advantage of his misfortune, so he could only stop and stand there with an embarrassed look on his face.
This time he came out to compete for the position of team leader because their team did not pay enough grain a few days ago, and the Grain Bureau criticized the Red Flag Brigade for not making arrangements carefully enough.
The team leader was also implicated and was scolded by his leader for poor supervision.
The angry captain scolded Song Youliang on his way back and said that he would be removed from his position as captain if there was any problem again.
Of course, the missing food still had to be handed over afterwards.
This mistake occurred because Song Youliang had been driving a ox cart to the town and the city every day to inquire about the whereabouts of his daughter.
That ox cart still belongs to the team, but he is occupying public resources.
But Li Qiang took it to heart when he heard this.
Now, let alone workers, even temporary workers are in short supply.
His elder and second brothers were unable to find him a job for the time being, but he was unwilling to keep working in the fields.
Then naturally, the position of team leader is the one I'm eyeing.
After discussing with his parents, his father went to find his second son who was a public security officer and asked him to use his connections in the commune, hoping to take the opportunity to force Song Youliang to step down.
Originally thought it was a sure win, but who could have thought that Song Youliang could turn the tables?
If Li Qiang hadn't felt guilty about this matter, he would have wanted to curse: I've already admitted defeat, and you still want to settle old scores?
Song Youliang smiled and said to the director: "Comrade Li Qiang is young and smart. I want him to learn tractors."
There can't be two tigers in one mountain.
Li Qiang's two elder brothers are indeed promising. It is said that Li Er helped the leader a lot when he was on a mission.
He was not going to fall out with the Li family, so he settled the matter in front of his leader.
In this way, the Li family will feel embarrassed to cause trouble for their own family, and it will also make the director satisfied.
When the director heard this, he really looked up to the young captain.
He had been saved by Li Gongan, so when Li Gongan came to him for help, he felt embarrassed to refuse.
Now the team leader asked Li San to drive a tractor. The treatment is no worse than that of the team leader, and he can also report to Public Security Li.
Li Qiang felt even more embarrassed and thanked him with a stuttering voice.
The director said in a friendly manner: "We will listen to Old Song. It is settled."
"We have a meeting here. Come back in a couple of days, Old Song, to claim your prize."
This is indeed a big deal, and there must be some reward.
But he wasn't sure what the prize was.
Song Youliang was also very excited when he heard this: "I'm sorry for the trouble, Director."
Li Qiang's parents were still waiting for good news at his second brother's place, so he went there first.
He came to town today, driving a bullock cart, carrying Chu Hong, two bulging sacks, and a black cat back home.
After the oxcart left the town, there were few people on both sides. Song Youliang asked his eldest daughter to drive the cart, and he scolded her with a sullen face: "You are so brave. You dare to go to Shencheng. Do you deserve a beating?"
Chu Hong picked out the best words to say: "I just felt that our family suffered a great loss and couldn't swallow this anger, so I went to them to ask for compensation."
"When I went there, he happened to be getting married again. I was definitely unwilling to accept that, so I asked for some money."
The main reason was that the amount was quite harsh, and she didn't want her cheap father to suspect her, so she didn't dare to tell him the specific amount.
"I don't know whether the Zhong family was reluctant to let me go, or whether Chen Shimei's current in-laws found out about it and sent someone to secretly kidnap me and take the money back."
"Thanks to this clever black cat, it brought its owner to save me..."
Food is scarce in the countryside now, and few people are willing to keep dogs, but some families keep cats.
The main reason is that cats can solve their own food problems, and at the same time protect the food at home from being coveted by mice.
But she also discovered these days that this black cat is a bit lazy and picky about food.
From now on, the black cat will definitely be eaten with them. He has to let his family know that the black cat is smart and saved his life.
"I'm definitely going to be so angry that I might as well go find the Yao family and ask for compensation..."
Song Youliang was so frightened that his face turned pale and his legs went limp: "You are so brave! You have saved your life."
He decided in his heart that he would hide the official seal and letter of introduction well and never let the second girl have the chance to come across them again.
Song Chutong was also frightened and said, "How dare you! Dad, you have to take good care of my second sister."
Chu Hong slapped the two sacks and sighed, "I wasn't blinded by the evil money, I was just venting my anger. Now that I'm back to myself, I'm scared!"
The ox cart was not moving fast. After passing through several small villages, it finally arrived at Lingtou Village, which was Song Chutong's in-laws' home. "Father, I'm going back first. I'll go home in two days."
This time she went to town not only to find her sister, but also to sell eggs.
Nowadays, agricultural and sideline products cannot be bought and sold privately and must be sent to purchasing stations.
Chu Hong said, "I'll be back tomorrow. I brought some cloth for Xiao Yu'er. You can take it and make her some clothes."
As she remembered, when her eldest sister married the eldest son of the Su family, her parents-in-law were more partial to the youngest son who gave birth to a grandson.
Therefore, Su Xiaoyu was five years old and had never worn new clothes. All she wore were old clothes that were mended by her elder sister.
Because the ox cart was bumpy, she didn't open it, and just stuffed a handful of candy into her eldest sister's mouth: "Hide it well, you and Xiaoyu'er can eat it together."
She deliberately didn't give more, so that the Su family wouldn't think that the eldest sister bought it herself and accuse her of spending money recklessly, and that Aunt Su would snatch it away and give it to her grandson.
Su Chutong also thought of it, her heart was sour, her eyes were red, and she forced a smile: "Okay, we will go back tomorrow."
Life after getting married is far from being as good as it was at my parents' home.
If her man hadn't been nice to her, she wouldn't know how she would have gotten through the day.
She also wanted to have a son, but since she gave birth to a daughter, her belly has been still.
Song Youliang, who was driving the car, was also stuffed with a piece of candy by his daughter. He felt sweet inside and reminded his daughter: "Go back and apologize to your mother. She is going to Shencheng to look for you."
He only has three daughters and he must love them all.
But the eldest girl was shy and timid. There was a lot of turmoil after she was born, and their family had a hard time. I had no time to coax my daughter, so she became estranged from me.
On the other hand, the second girl was sweet-spoken, well-behaved and filial, looked like his wife, and was as brave and resourceful as him, which made him unable to help but favor her a little more.
