Chapter 72 Too Cruel



After hearing what President Zhou said, Zhang Xudong couldn't help but curl his lips. Isn't this just hunting in the name of searching the mountain?

They have explained it so clearly, the only thing missing is that there will be meat to eat when you go there.

If there are still people who don't participate, then that person is really hopeless.

After President Zhou and the others had left, he said to Captain Wu:

Comrade Wu Youliang, several members of your production team have come to the commune to report you under your real name for deceiving your superiors and subordinates and embezzling collective grain.

Our disciplinary officers have already gone to your production team this afternoon to investigate and collect evidence. Now we need you to go to the commune to be investigated. Take him up there first."

President Zhou waved his hand, and immediately two militiamen tied up Wu Youliang and threw him onto the mule cart.

Captain Zhang's face turned pale and sweat covered his forehead as he watched from the side.

Is it my turn next? Have I ever done anything immoral?

It's just like what my sister-in-law said yesterday, I'm just bored.

The more someone helps you, the more you will cheat them. If you don't suffer, who will?

President Zhou looked at Captain Zhang and said:

"Captain Zhang, you are not young anymore. It's time to take a break and hand over the responsibility to the young people!

The commune has secretly investigated several people, and finally everyone believes that Comrade Zhang Dazhuang is the most suitable candidate to take over your position. What do you think?

Zhang Dazhuang, the responsibility of Xiangyang Production Team is now handed over to you. Can you take it up?"

President Zhou didn't wait for Captain Zhang to say anything, and directly asked Zhang Dazhuang loudly.

"Yes, I will definitely live up to the trust of my leader." Zhang Dazhuang was stunned for a moment and then answered loudly.

Even though he just said it didn't matter, who would like to be bullied?

"That's good. You must not only live up to our trust, but also live up to the expectations of the members.

Someone from the commune will come tomorrow to take over the work for you, so you need to be prepared.

You should also consider the selection of the militia captain. Until a decision is made, you will take on the concurrent post."

President Zhou finished speaking and left with his men. True to his veteran status, he handled matters with swiftness and efficiency, without any delay.

Zhang Dayou also hurriedly helped his distraught father back home.

He didn't blame Zhang Xudong. He reaps what he sowed. He brought all the trouble upon himself.

The people at Zhang Xudong's door were stunned by the turn of events.

If we just arrest one and withdraw one, will the world be peaceful? We won't be afraid of offending the captain anymore?

A group of people looked at Zhang Xudong speechlessly, and Zhang Xudong was confused.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me? Am I really that handsome?"

"Dongzi, you just told Dayou to persuade his father to quit, and his father was persuaded to quit by the president.

You'd better not talk nonsense in the future." Zhao Changsheng looked at Zhang Xudong and said.

"Uncle Changsheng, what you mean is that I am a crow's mouth, good things don't work, but bad things work.

But it was just a coincidence, it's not that weird." Zhang Xudong didn't want to take the blame; it was too shameful.

"Everyone, thank you for today's work.

Because school is about to start, we will move back to the county town the day after tomorrow morning, to the same place where we lived before. You can come to see us if you have anything to do.

Children, you must keep practicing what you have learned. You can go to the county town together on Sundays and I will continue to teach you.

We will come back to stay here during holidays," Zhang Xudong said to everyone.

"Dongzi, wasn't our house taken away by the factory?" Grandma asked Zhang Xudong in confusion after hearing this.

"Grandma, you don't know that Li Guizhi really screwed us over."

Zhang Xudong gave a brief account of what happened in the afternoon.

After hearing this, the group of people didn't know what to say.

Zhang Xudong lost several people in the afternoon. At the end, he also mentioned the old captain.

Although these are the consequences they should have borne, this physique that brings bad luck to anyone who touches it is too hateful.

Zhang Xudong was a little depressed. Shouldn't the focus be on Li Guizhi's immoral behavior? Why did the blame fall on him?

Seeing that it was getting late, everyone went home without saying anything.

After Zhang Xudong and his younger sister had finished their dinner and went to bed, he said to his grandmother, who was mending clothes by the kerosene lamp:

"Grandma, Uncle Feng actually gave me a temporary job today, but I don't want to give it to anyone now.

I'm afraid of offending more people for one person, so it's better not to say anything. What do you think I should do?

"Dongzi, it seems that after going through a few things, you have become more mature than before, and you are not so clumsy in doing things.

You can go to the county town and ask if any of your acquaintances or friends need it. It's always good to do a favor.

Don’t mention this matter to the villagers in the future, and don’t let them make a mess.

Your third uncle's family is almost broken up because of a job that he hasn't even found yet.

I also blame him for being too partial to Xiao Si and his wife. Given their personalities, he won't end up well in the end."

"Okay, I'll go to the county town tomorrow to ask.

Grandma, I have one more thing to ask you."

"Just tell me what's going on. Why are you being so fussy today?"

"Grandma, what's my mother's name?"

Grandma's hands trembled as she heard this and said, "Did your Uncle Feng tell you that?"

"Yes, grandma, Uncle Feng was also very angry with Li Guizhi today, so he told me what happened after my dad married Li Guizhi."

"Dongzi, it's not that grandma and your dad want to hide this from you, it's because we want you to grow up carefree like other children.

Now that you have some information and you are grown up and able to stand on your own feet, this matter should be made clear to you.

Your mother is a good person. Ten or a hundred Li Guizhis cannot compare to her. But she has a miserable life.

Under the dim oil lamp, grandma began to tell Zhang Xudong about his mother's past.
