Chapter 130 Zhang Zhiqing, Whom Are You Questioning!
"It's Xiang Yiguo, the production team leader of Xiangyang Brigade."
While explaining things to Cen Yan, Qi Jingchuan put on his raincoat and went outside. Only half of the food on the table had been eaten, and it was clear that there was no time to finish the rest.
Upon opening the door, Qi Jingchuan asked immediately, "What happened?"
Xiang Yiguo stamped his feet in anxiety, “The road into the village is completely blocked. The tractor driver arranged by the commune has not arrived yet. We can’t transport the grain we’ve harvested back in time. If this continues, all the grain will be soaked and rotten by the rain. Comrade Jingchuan, could you please gather a few officers and drive trucks to help us transport the grain back to the warehouse?”
"No, those areas on the ridges are too small. Military vehicles can't get in at all. They can only accommodate tractors. Don't worry, I'll take some men to clear the roads. I'll make sure the tractor drivers can get in before nightfall." Qi Jingchuan glanced back at Cen Yan, then, without saying anything more, quickly rushed into the heavy rain.
Before Cen Yan could even utter a word, Qi Jingchuan had vanished without a trace.
She had no choice but to ask Xiang Yiguo, "Captain, can you take me to see the tractor?"
"Who are you?"
Cen Yan showed her work badge, "I am Cen Yan, Qi Jingchuan's wife, and also a nurse who went to the countryside with the medical team for rescue. Unfortunately, I can drive, so maybe I can try driving a tractor to help you transport the grain back to the warehouse."
In disaster relief, time is of the essence, but Qi Jingchuan was too hasty. He was only thinking about leading people to clear the roads, without considering whether the harvested grain in the fields could last that long.
If the grain is not returned to the warehouse in time and gets soaked in water, it will sprout in a couple of days, and the production team's hard work for the whole year will be wasted.
When Xiang Yiguo heard Cen Yan introduce herself as a nurse on the medical team, someone he could trust, he didn't care about anything else.
"Comrade Cen, please come with me!"
Cen Yan, holding an umbrella, followed behind Xiang Yiguo and hurriedly arrived at the warehouse where the tractors were parked.
A group of people were gathered around the tractor, looking anxious and hoping that the tractor driver would arrive soon.
He introduced Cen Yan to Yi Guo and the others, and then said to Cen Yan, "Nurse Cen, thank you for your help."
"It's no trouble at all. I came to the countryside to support rural areas. Whether it's in the medical team's tent or in the driver's seat of this tractor, as long as I can help you fellow villagers, then my arrival is not meaningless."
Cen Yan smiled slightly and approached the tractor.
But at this moment, a man reached out and stopped Cen Yan. "You're a woman, you should stay at home to have and raise children. Aren't you ashamed to come out and show your face in public? Cen Yan, I'm an educated youth responsible for looking after the tractor. I don't allow you to get close to the tractor. What if you maliciously retaliate and damage the tractor? Where can I seek justice?"
"Zhang Zhiqing, you know each other?" Xiang Yiguo was extremely surprised. Judging from Zhang Wei's appearance, did he have a grudge against Cen Yan?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei flew into a rage: "I know her more than just a shrew! This woman is a shrew, a tigress, domineering and fierce. When I first went to the countryside, I only said a few words that offended her, and she kicked me off the cruise ship, almost causing me to drown! Cen Yan is the murderer who attempted murder!"
So it was him! Cen Yan curled her lips sarcastically. This Xiangyang Brigade is really lively. Wang Manman, Pang Xiaoyue, Tang Qiuxia, and now Zhang Wei. How come the educated youth sent to the countryside are getting worse and worse? Have they all lost their minds?
Cen Yan rolled up her sleeves and looked at Zhang Wei with neither humility nor arrogance, asking, "Zhang Zhiqing, you just said that women should stay at home to give birth and raise children, and that coming out of the house is considered showing one's face in public and is shameful?"
"Yes!" Zhang Wei replied with overwhelming momentum, his eyes wide open, bigger than a bull's eyes.
Cen Yan pointed around at the production team members, stared at Zhang Wei, and said sternly, "When the rainstorm disaster strikes, everyone in the production team, regardless of age or gender, rushes to help with disaster relief. Women can do what men can do. Comrade Great Man even clearly said that women hold up half the sky! Now you think that women's labor is shameful?"
"Zhang Zhiqing, are you questioning the great man and the organization?!"
