Accountant Zheng didn't expect things to turn out like this. If he had known, he would have told it privately.
But now that he had said it, it was too late to regret, he could only look at Lin Weiguo.
"Captain, what should we do now that this has happened?"
Lin Weiguo rolled his eyes in annoyance. Now he knows what to do?
What were you doing so far?
But there is no point in saying this now.
"Let's calm them down first, and then we'll go to the brigade headquarters to discuss countermeasures."
Accountant Zheng nodded repeatedly.
"That's all we can do for now."
He glanced at the chaotic crowd again, and immediately said with a smile:
"As for pacifying everyone, we'll have to trouble the captain himself to do it."
Although Lin Weiguo was somewhat dissatisfied with Accountant Zheng's behavior, he would always be the first to rush forward when good things happened, but would only think of himself when something went wrong.
But what could he do? He was the team leader after all. He couldn't just sit there and watch the villagers riot, could he?
Lin Weiguo no longer paid attention to Accountant Zheng, turned to look at everyone, cleared his throat and then shouted.
"Fellow villagers and educated youth, please stop arguing and listen to me!"
He raised his hands and pressed down while shouting. He shouted several times in a row until his voice was almost hoarse. Finally, the noise of the crowd died down.
The main thing is that they know that they can't achieve anything by arguing on their own, the key lies in how the team leader arranges it.
Of course, if the captain's arrangement cannot convince them, they will continue to make trouble.
After the scene finally quieted down, Lin Weiguo continued:
"First of all, I want to say that the scorer position will definitely be taken back to the team. As soon as the third son of the Qin family leaves, we will arrange for a new scorer to take up the post."
Aunt Qin was about to explode when she heard this, but before she could say anything.
Almost all the villagers around her, including the entire Tashan Brigade and the educated youth at the educated youth point, stared at her, as if they were going to make her suffer if she made trouble again.
Although Aunt Qin is invincible in the brigade, if she becomes an enemy of the entire brigade, she'd better admit defeat and shut up.
Lin Weiguo naturally saw that Mrs. Qin was not convinced, but he still made the final decision:
"Sister-in-law Qin, there's no need to make a fuss. This matter has already been settled. Having Third Qin work as a scorekeeper for so long is already a special favor for the Qin family from the brigade. I hope you can be content."
After hearing what Lin Weiguo said, Aunt Qin finally calmed down, but she was still very aggressive.
"Tsk, if you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. We have two children from our family who will go to the city to eat the food supply in the future. We don't care about it!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Lin Weiguo was eager for her to leave and stop causing trouble, so he ignored her.
"We just talked about arranging a new scorekeeper. I know everyone is concerned about this."
"But I'd like to ask everyone not to worry for now. I'll inform everyone of the details after we discuss it this afternoon."
"I'm here to assure everyone that we will try our best to come up with a solution that everyone can accept."
"Okay, that's all I have to say. Everyone, go back first. We have to go to work in the afternoon."
"By the way, the young and strong men in the team shouldn't go to the rice paddies for the next two days. First, quickly repair the embankment. All the work points will be given to the highest possible number."
"Also, before the levee is repaired, everyone should try not to go there and take risks."
"Okay, let's adjourn the meeting."
Everyone was quite convinced of Captain Lin Weiguo, so even though they were anxious, they did not stay any longer and continued to do what they were supposed to do. They would know the result in about two days.
…
When most people had left and Lin Weiguo and his family were preparing to go back, Qin Jianye came over with an apologetic look on his face.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Lin, for causing you trouble. I'd like to apologize to you on behalf of my mother."
Lin Weiguo patted his shoulder to comfort him:
"It's no big deal. It's human nature. Don't overthink it. You must be tired from the journey, right? Go back and rest quickly."
After saying that, he urged Qin Jianye to go back.
Qin Jianye felt his eyes sore after hearing this. Since he came back, he has not received any concern from his family, but he felt the warmth from Uncle Lin.
…
On the way back, Wang Zhaodi couldn't help but ask:
"Dad, what are you going to do? Now that everyone knows about this, can my little sister still be a scorekeeper?"
Before Lin Weiguo could say anything, Shen Wenfang became impatient.
"Didn't they just say that they would discuss this with the other brigade officers this afternoon? What are you worrying about?"
"I'm just worried that my little sister won't be able to compete with others."
"Alright, alright, why keep saying this? If you can't win the argument, forget it. It's no big deal."
After saying this, Shen Wenfang looked at Lin Ran beside him and said comfortingly:
"I heard that it doesn't matter whether you work or not. The family doesn't need you to earn work points at all."
Lin Ran was originally holding Shen Wenfang's arm, and now she leaned her head on Shen Wenfang's shoulder and acted coquettishly.
"Mom, I know, but if you have the chance, you should go. This way your ears will be quiet."
Shen Wenfang chuckled when she heard this and couldn't help but tap Lin Ran's forehead.
"You little devil."
But this made Wang Zhaodi very angry. She felt that Lin Ran was indirectly saying that she was annoying, but she didn't say it directly, so she didn't get angry. In the end, she left in a huff.
After Wang Zhaodi left, the atmosphere became much better and everyone was in the mood to chat.
Shen Wenfang thought of Qin Jianye coming back alone just now and couldn't help asking.
"The second son of the Qin family seems to be quite old, why hasn't he married yet?"
