That's not a pleasant thing to say. If you put making money first at this point, you're in for a beating.
At this point, Wei Aiguo smiled.
Children usually don't dare to interrupt adults, especially since the team leaders are usually captains. But Wei An wasn't afraid. "Grandpa, you're wrong. We're not Little Carrot Head. Little Carrot Head was imprisoned by spies, and he wasn't just there to fill a spot. He was very brave, and he was eventually killed by the spies!"
We are young people born and raised under the red flag; we are like the rising sun, full of vigor and vitality. We study for the rise of our motherland.
Captain Mao was speechless at Wei An's words; the child was right. He was furious and grabbed Wei An, but Cheng Shuan stopped him and shoved him directly, shouting, "If the youth are wise, the nation is wise; if the youth are wealthy, the nation is wealthy; if the youth are strong, the nation is strong! What gives you the right to look down on us youth?"
You're wrong, and you're going to hit our classmates?!
"Let's go find a place to settle this."
Captain Wu was in a particularly good mood. "Look, even such a young child understands this principle, and you don't? You should learn!"
Captain Mao's name was Mao Dahai. He was so angry that he kept saying "you" for a long time before finally saying, "This little brat is so rude, and I can't even say anything to her."
“You’re talking about our classmate, and she’s refuting you. How is she being impolite? She’s our vice class monitor, of course she should speak up for her classmates!” Shuanzhu was old enough to know about the conflict between Qingshan Brigade and Tugang Village. He knew that some things could be said.
At this moment, Director Fan from the management committee arrived. "This little girl is your vice class monitor? What are her abilities?"
Captain Mao immediately seized on this remark and said, "Director Fan, do you also think this child is being mischievous?"
Director Fan's face immediately darkened. Captain Mao was trying to use him as a pawn! "Comrade, how can you speak like that? I just wanted to ask how she could be so capable at such a young age. I didn't say anything else." Director Fan knew all about Song Yan and the Wei family's background; they were from impeccable revolutionary families. He wasn't just arguing for nothing; why would he mess with her? Standing silently to the side was Wei Aiguo. He had carried out missions and earned merits, even taking lives on his hands. This kind of person was not to be trifled with.
"She reads and writes well, has a positive attitude, and is more progressive than you!" a child said, pointing at Captain Mao.
"You adults are bullying children, aren't you ashamed?"
"Don't think that just because you're an adult, you can bully people. We won't let you do it. We will fight against all evil forces."
"We must firmly resist this erroneous ideology..."
At this moment, the children in the class realized what was happening and all went towards Captain Mao...
Wei Aiguo exclaimed that Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Yan had taught these children well; their reasoning was so sophisticated and eloquent. Could anyone say they were wrong? They had all memorized it verbatim.
The principal of the commune primary school was also there, and he praised all the children.
This put Captain Mao in a very awkward position. Captain Wu, on the other hand, was extremely pleased.
Captain Mao must have received advance notice. Their brigade's choir had practiced beforehand and sang very well. He then declared that he would wipe out the Qingshan Brigade.
But to my surprise, the children's choir of Qingshan Brigade had recitations, accompaniment, and a conductor, and their round singing was particularly wonderful.
There was a music teacher among the judges, so the scores were particularly high.
Qingshan Brigade won first place.
Captain Mao was furious before, but after the competition, he became much more restrained.
When the commune leaders and the team leaders met, Captain Mao especially flattered Captain Wu. He praised the entire weaving group of Qingshan Brigade to the skies.
Wei Aiguo could tell that the brigade leader didn't want to be so ostentatious, but he was still put in a difficult position by Brigade Leader Mao.
Song Yan was completely confused. What exactly did Captain Mao want to do?
After seeing Captain Mao leave, Wei Aiguo secretly followed him. He said to their militia captain, "Let him be happy for a few days, let him enjoy himself for a few days. He'll be crying later!"
Hearing this, Song Yan guessed a thing or two. He was just plotting something, wasn't he?
The hatred in Captain Mao's eyes was almost overflowing when he spoke.
Song Yan: "Did the conflict between Captain Mao and Captain Wu arise from work-related issues, or were they enemies from the beginning?"
Wei Aiguo: "It started when the two villages were arguing over the land boundary. Every time, he couldn't get the better of Captain Wu."
This year, Tugang Village was the first to announce that it would lower prices.
I also heard from Captain Wu that he was the first to propose cooperation with the Qingshan Brigade.
The supply and marketing cooperative never accepted anything they made; the corn husks weren't processed properly, and many were ruined.
Song Yan: "What do you think people are thinking?"
Partnering with Tugang Village is tantamount to giving up profits. Why would Qingshan Brigade do that?
They didn't get any advantage, so they want revenge!
People's mentality is usually relaxed now that everyone has won first place. This might be the time for some to make a move, so the night watchmen need to be extra vigilant!
"I know, I'll go when it gets late."
"Tugang Village worked so hard for nothing and gained nothing. Now there's a lot of complaints," Wei Aiguo said.
Tugang Village suffered a lot of hard work for nothing. They were greedy and rushed to cut a lot of cattails. In areas where there were cattails, the two brigades even fought over them. They cut all the cattails in that area.
Song Yan knew about this. At the time, Captain Wu said that this was the usual style of Tugang Village, and he had never acted arrogantly in Qingshan Brigade.
In Tugang Village, almost everyone shares the surname Mao, and there are many young and middle-aged men. There are only a few households with other surnames. When something happens, the village head calls on everyone with the surname Mao to step up. If any of the other families dare not to step up, they'll be dealt with severely later.
