The jeep, trailing dust, rushed into the Dahewan Brigade.
As soon as the car stopped in front of Che Wang's house, Guan Wenru jumped out of the door before the car had even come to a complete stop.
He Yanzhi was startled by her behavior, but seeing how anxious she was, he could only sigh helplessly.
"Baiyun! Baiyun!" Guan Wenru's voice preceded his arrival as he hurried into the courtyard.
Che Wang's wife, Lü Amei, was standing in the courtyard. As soon as she saw Guan Wenru, she exclaimed, "Oh my, Xiao Guan! Commander He! You've finally come back!"
Guan Wenru nodded to her, "Auntie, where's my Baiyun?"
"He's in the kitchen!"
Che Wang came out of the house at this moment. He nodded to He Yanzhi and Guan Wenru, his expression solemn, "Commander He, Guan, it's good that you're back!"
These past two days, Director Ma from the commune has been bringing people to try and reconcile the situation every day, and he doesn't know what to do!
This matter is egregious; how could Xi Mufan and Bai Yun possibly forgive it?
He Yanzhi and Guan Wenru also greeted him.
At this moment, Baiyun rushed out of the kitchen. As soon as she saw Guan Wenru, the strength she had been pretending to have for the past two days collapsed instantly, and tears streamed down her face. "Sister Lantian!"
Guan Wenru rushed forward and hugged her tightly, his voice trembling, "Xiaoyun, how are you? Are you frightened? Those beasts... those beasts didn't hurt you, did they?"
Baiyun's voice choked with sobs, "Sister, I'm fine, I'm really fine."
The one who's in trouble is Xi Mufan!
Guan Wenru released her and examined her closely. "Are you really not hurt? Not even a little bit?"
"No! Sister, it's all thanks to Comrade Xi Mufan! He protected me and managed to block them! But...but..."
Thinking of Xi Mufan's gunshot wound to the leg, her tears flowed even more fiercely. "Xi Mufan was seriously injured. He was shot in the calf and bled a lot."
Guan Wenru's face was ashen. She used the back of her hand to wipe away her tears. "Those beasts who deserve to be torn to pieces! Don't worry, your brother-in-law will definitely follow up on this matter. Those people will be in deep trouble! Anyway, it's good that you're alright. Let's go see Xi Mufan first."
"Okay!" Bai Yun pulled Guan Wenru's hand and walked out, but then suddenly remembered something, scratched his head and looked at Lü Amei, "Auntie, could you please watch the fire for me?"
She's stewing meat for Xi Mufan!
Lü Amei nodded repeatedly, "No problem, no problem."
Bai Yun hurriedly led Guan Wenru out, with He Yanzhi following closely behind.
...
When Guan Wenru and the others entered the room, Xi Mufan was sitting on the simple bed with a thin blanket covering his legs.
As soon as Bai Yun stepped in, she said, "Comrade Xi Mufan, my sister and brother-in-law have come to see you."
Xi Mufan put down the book in his hand.
His face was a little pale, but he was still in good spirits. He tried to sit up straight. "Commander He, Wenru, you're back? Is the factory matter settled?"
Dahewan Production Brigade also belonged to Su'nan Commune.
So almost all the members of the brigade had heard about the commune's plan to set up a feed processing plant.
Moreover, everyone knows that Guan Wenru is in charge of this matter.
"You still have the leisure to worry about factory matters!" Guan Wenru walked quickly to the bedside, her brows furrowed. She bent down and carefully examined him. "Don't move! How does your leg feel? Since you were shot, why don't you stay in the hospital a few more days!"
With the poor medical conditions these days, she was afraid of getting infected.
Seeing her worried expression, Xi Mufan gave her a reassuring smile, "It's really nothing, just a small hole in my leg. The medic did a great job. I had a fever for two days, but it's gone today. I just need to rest, don't worry."
"This is a gunshot wound!" Guan Wenru still lifted the thin blanket on his legs to see how bad it was.
The wound was bandaged, so she couldn't see anything wrong with it.
Seeing her like this, He Yanzhi behind her pursed his lips.
Xi Mufan noticed He Yanzhi's gaze, chuckled, and pulled the blanket over his legs. "I'm really fine."
He Yanzhi then walked to the bedside, his voice low and powerful, "Mu Fan, we've heard what happened. Don't worry, I will personally follow up on this matter to the end."
Whether it's the county government or any other relevant department, they won't miss a single one.
Those who dare to injure people with guns, slander comrades, and attempt violence... must pay the price they deserve! It's not just a simple matter of dismissal!
Xi Mufan knew that once He Yanzhi intervened, Director Ma and the deputy director would no longer bother him and Bai Yun.
He nodded. "I trust the organization and Commander He. They will not shirk their responsibilities."
No sooner had He Yanzhi finished speaking than a commotion and the sound of a child crying came from outside the courtyard.
You can still faintly hear Che Wang and Lü Amei's voices.
Bai Yun clenched her fists and gritted her teeth as she spoke, "They're here again!"
He Yanzhi and Guan Wenru exchanged a glance, their brows furrowing.
Guan Wenru looked at Bai Yun, "Who's causing trouble?"
"Sister, it's not exactly causing trouble. It was Director Ma from the commune who brought Wang Xing and Wang Neng's wife and child to plead for them. Comrade Xi Mufan and I both said we wouldn't forgive them and that we should follow the rules. But he acted like he didn't understand and still brought people over."
"..." He Yanzhi and Guan Wenru frowned even more.
This Director Ma isn't incapable of understanding; he's just arrogant and thinks he's some kind of official. He brings people to play the victim and put pressure on Xi Mufan and Bai Yun, hoping the two young people will change their minds.
He Yanzhi's expression was tense. "Let them in. We're here today, so let's make things clear. You don't need to be afraid. Director Ma is responsible for what happened in the commune. He'll soon lose his position as director. Don't be afraid of him or him using his position to cause trouble for you."
