Chapter 185 Chapter 185
Gu Zhenxing was stunned. He never thought that such an important position would fall on him.
The other people in the village who were determined to get the position of team leader and were even ready to stir up trouble, after Lai Guochang made such a strong decision to take care of revitalization, even though they were unwilling, they did not dare to object and all of them kept their heads down.
Who would dare to refute? The Gu family is now the absolute leader in the village. They have a son who is a regiment leader in their army, not to mention Ye Qing, a famous figure who has a high position in the upper ranks and is the Gu family's future daughter-in-law who has not yet married. With these two powerful figures supporting Gu Zhenxing Town, and him being the head of the production team, who in the village would dare to act rashly?
The person in the village who is most worried about the change of team leader is probably Ye Qing.
After all, all the affairs in the village were closely related to her, and even her future development plans could not be avoided in the village, so she was most worried that a new team leader would cause trouble for her at work.
But Lai Guochang solved all her worries and hidden dangers in one move. Gu Zhenxing's promotion was not much different from Wu Yongbing's becoming the team leader. After all, her relationship with the Gu family was there. In the future, when she needed help from the village, Gu Zhenxing would definitely not deliberately make things difficult for her. Instead, he would give her the green light.
Moreover, Gu Zhenxing is a clear-headed man. He has served as a militiaman and fought on the battlefield. He still has considerable prestige in the village. He can control the people in the village and is not afraid of their morale being lost.
It's a pity for Wu Yongbing. Although this old man was lacking in educating his daughter, he definitely invested a lot of energy in the development of Kaoshantun. He really put his heart into it. If he hadn't supported Ye Qing's scientific breeding work under pressure in recent years, and argued with the higher authorities to get a health station, Kaoshantun would probably still be an unknown poor mountain valley. How could it have such a good situation today?
But with such a big thing happening to the Wu family, Wu Yongbing was obviously a little discouraged, and it would be difficult for him to get over it for a while. This time he took the initiative to resign because he wanted to make a good adjustment. It would indeed be unkind to persuade him to continue to serve the villagers in this position.
After Wu Yueying was shot, the Wu family fell into a depression. Many families in the village took the initiative to distance themselves from the Wu family. The children of Wu Cong and Wu Min were also isolated by the children in the village. However, the Gu family remained the same towards the Wu family. Gu Zhenxing would occasionally invite Wu Yongbing to his house for drinks and meals, and would not discriminate against any member of the Wu family when assigning them farm work.
Ye Qing also taught the children in the village not to discriminate against or exclude the Wu family. If they saw other children from the Wu family again, they should not enter her yard to pet the wolves, and they could not expect her to take them out to play in the future.
After being warned by Ye Qing, the children immediately said that they would never dare to do it again.
But Ye Qing can educate the children, but he cannot force other people in the village to keep a normal mind, so the treatment of the Wu family in the village is very different from before. In the past, the family was crowded with people and often had visitors, but now it is deserted, and no one may come to visit for most of the month.
There is nothing that can be done about this. It will take three to five years for people to forget this incident and eliminate the influence brought by Wu Yueying. Only time can heal the wounds. The Wu family will have to live in this shadow for a while.
After the news of Wu Yueying's sentencing came, Xia Hangyi came to Kaoshantun and brought back a lot of things as compensation. It seemed that he wanted to ask Wu Yongbing for forgiveness.
Unfortunately, Wu Yongbing was a hot-tempered man. Although Wu Yueying's own arrogance and stupidity were the reasons for her daughter's fate, it was also a fact that she was framed by Xia Hangyi. How could Wu Yongbing forgive the culprit who caused his daughter's death? So when Xia Hangyi arrived, he was severely beaten by Wu Yongbing. Wu Cong and Wu Min also joined in. The three of them drove him away.
For this reason, Wu Yongbing even threatened Xia Hangyi not to come again in the future, otherwise he would be beaten every time he was seen by his family, and he would never show mercy!
As expected, Xia Hangyi never came again, but he successfully cut off his relationship with Wu Yueying. Even the Yue family stopped associating with him. Who knows how happy he was in his heart.
The matter of Wu Yueying came to an end. The news that Ye Qing's children's story collection had swept the bestseller lists abroad was reported in newspapers and became a big news that the people talked about with relish. In particular, the preface written by Ye Qing in the book was directly published on the front page of the daily newspaper supplement. The leader even commented on the preface, praising Ye Qing, the female comrade, for having a clean and transparent mind. Because of her clean and pure mind, she saw everything in the world as beautiful, so the world was so beautiful in her writing.
This comment could be regarded as a high compliment, but it made Ye Qing feel a little embarrassed and guilty. After all, when she first wrote the preface, she glorified Changbai Mountain and Kaoshantun in order to fool foreigners.
Fortunately, after this preface became popular in China, it was not without benefits.
At the very least, more people knew that a group of educated youth in Kaoshantun had founded a collection of stories about the blind eradication class. Once the news became popular, it immediately attracted the attention of the higher-ups. Just a few days later, Hang Tingfang called and said that he wanted to create a supplement to the "Women's Newspaper" and add a "Children's Newspaper" page. The content to be published would be the collection of stories about the blind eradication class in Kaoshantun, and the entire team of the supplement would be composed of educated youth from Kaoshantun.
This good news immediately caused an uproar in the Youth League Home in Kaoshantun.
These are formal jobs, with regular wages and benefits every month. Hang Tingfang also promised these educated youth that if the supplement is done well and develops in the future, the supplement can be separated out and the main publication can be established. At that time, they will even have the opportunity to be transferred directly to the newspaper headquarters to work.
Since going to the countryside to work in the production team, most of these educated youth whose families had some connections have basically found ways to return to the city.
Those who really couldn't stand the hard work would try to pick out the best among the short people and marry into or take home a decent family in the commune.
The rest basically belong to the group that has no hope of returning to the city, is unwilling to compromise, and has not yet started a family.
But since Ye Qing came, Kaoshantun has undergone considerable changes. After Ye Qing's ideological work several times, the cadres in the village also changed their attitude towards these educated youth from the city and tried their best to arrange them in positions where they can use their knowledge and skills.
Because the villagers cared for them and treated them well, these educated youth put aside their prejudices against the villagers and spontaneously organized themselves to set up blindness elimination classes, using storytelling to help the villagers eliminate blindness.
But no one could have imagined that this positive evolution would one day reward them in this way.
You have to know that the headquarters of the Women's Newspaper is in Jicheng. This is an opportunity that countless people have racked their brains to get, but they didn't expect it to fall on their heads so easily.
Originally, these educated youth were determined not to get married, and the old people in the village laughed at them. Even those old educated youth who had already married came back to persuade them not to be stubborn and to make plans early while they were still young, because if they didn't get married, their lives would be even more difficult in the future.
Unexpectedly, within two years, these educated youth's lives had such a huge turning point. Now it was the turn of those old educated youth who had hastily married to be jealous and resentful. However, the jobs given by Hang Tingfang were only reserved for those who had participated in the story collection of the blind eradication class. Those who had left the educated youth home had already missed the opportunity and it was too late to regret.
It has to be said that Hang Tingfang's professional vision is quite sharp. The creation of the Women's Daily supplement is equivalent to providing children with a special little reading world. This is indeed another progressive milestone for the domestic print media. Once this supplement is successfully created, more children's reading publications will surely emerge like bamboo shoots after a spring rain in the future, bringing more high-quality spiritual food to domestic young people.
Ye Qing's reputation among the educated youth group became even higher, and even the Kaoshantun Production Brigade became the first choice for many educated youth to go to the countryside to work. Originally, educated youth from all over the country would choose the relatively wealthy southern or central plains regions when going to the countryside, and would not go to such a bitter and cold place as the Great Northern Wilderness. But in the past two years, with Ye Qing's repeated appearances in newspapers and on television, this poor and remote Kaoshantun has become more and more famous. Educated youth from all over the country have been scrambling to get here, and have used all the connections they can.
However, the policy will not change. There are only so many educated youth that Kaoshantun can accept every year, and the quota is limited, so who can get one depends entirely on their own ability.
Ye Qing didn't care about the comings and goings and the gossips in the Youth Farm. She couldn't even remember the names of the educated youth who came to work in the countryside later. She was really too busy with work every day and didn't have time to interact with them.
In mid-May, after more than two months of conditioning, Han Yabo's body finally recovered and all the toxins in his body were cleared out. Song Chunhua officially entered the stage of preparing for pregnancy.
Fang Xiaotao had the same plan as Song Chunhua.
This year, the number of pigs raised in the military farm has increased several times, and the farm has also recruited a large number of people. Fang Xiaotao has become the manager of the pig farm. She is vigorous and efficient every day, and is no longer the timid and submissive little wife she used to be.
Zhang Jianguo retired from the army and was arranged by Zhao Yuliang to work in the town's police station. He would go to Kaoshantun to patrol whenever he had time, and from time to time he would go to the health station to do what he could. Because his leg disease had been almost cured by Ye Qing, he was very efficient in catching thieves and investigating cases, and seemed to be much better than when he was in the army.
Perhaps because he saw that this man had indeed changed well, Fang Xiaotao also became visibly younger, with a cheerful and bright smile every day, and it was obvious that she was immersed in happiness. Ye Qing was relieved, gave Zhang Jianguo a few injections, and let the couple go home to prepare for pregnancy.
According to Ye Qing's estimation, within two months, Song Chunhua and Fang Xiaotao would both be able to have children.
But before she could receive the good news from these two people, she received bad news first.
