When Director Li found Shen Annian, Shen Annian and Zhao Jinfang were searching for a place all over the mountains, with grass hanging on their heads and sweat on the tip of their noses.
Seeing Secretary Li, she was very surprised, "Secretary Li, why are you here?"
"I came to talk to you about something."
Seeing his expression, Shen Annian said something to Zhao Jinfang, patted his clothes, and walked over.
"What's going on?"
Li lowered his voice and whispered, "Deputy Secretary Zhang came to the commune and said that someone reported you. He is currently investigating the situation at the commune."
"Did you say why?"
"They said it was because of family background. I see Deputy Director Zhang doesn't look too happy. You'd better be careful."
What she worried about finally happened.
What she didn't expect was that they didn't go to the commune, but reported to the county town.
The deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee came in person, and it was obvious that they took this matter very seriously.
Forget it, there’s no point thinking about it now. Let’s wait until I meet the leader.
She ran to tell Zhao Jinfang that she wanted to go back to the commune first.
Zhao Jinfang became anxious when he heard this. Secretary Shen had gone to several places but still hadn't decided on a location for the chicken farm. Now he had to leave again. The chicken farm project might fail.
"Secretary Shen, what about this chicken farm?"
"Please wait patiently for a few days. I will go back and discuss with the commune and let you know when there is any news."
Zhao Jinfang breathed a sigh of relief. From the tone of her voice, it seemed very likely that their village could run a chicken farm.
"Secretary Shen, I'll be waiting for your good news."
Because the matter was urgent, Shen Annian didn't have time to say anything more to him, and hurriedly rode back to the commune with Director Li.
But they came back empty-handed. Deputy Director Zhang was not in the office, so they went to Dahe Village.
Shen Annian was so thirsty that he went to the office to drink a glass of water first.
Everyone looked at her, wondering what had happened to her.
He Xiaoying stepped forward and asked, "Niannian, Deputy Director Zhang just came to see you. What happened?"
"I don't know. I haven't met Deputy Director Zhang yet."
Sister Yang snorted coldly and looked at her with a contemptuous expression that said "You are definitely dead."
Shen Annian gave her a bright smile in return, "Sister Yang must have said a lot of bad things about me in front of Deputy Director Zhang."
"What bad things did I say about you? Is there anything I said that is not true?"
"Oh, you made up the truth."
Her sarcastic tone irritated Sister Yang to death. "I wonder how long you can hold on to this."
Shen Annian was still smiling, not looking worried about herself at all, which made Sister Yang's back teeth almost broken.
That's impossible. People from the Revolutionary Committee have come. How can she still be so calm?
What other cards does she have that I don't know about?
No way, she is just a young educated youth, what background can she have?
She couldn't have thought that Secretary Chen could still protect her this time.
If she really thought so, she was totally wrong. Secretary Chen might be implicated by her this time.
She was about to say something sarcastic, but Shen Annian had already left.
Sister Yang felt particularly frustrated because she had a lot to say but had no place to vent.
When Deputy Director Zhang visited Dahe Village, the villagers didn't know him at all, but they knew Secretary Chen.
"Secretary Chen, why are you here?"
Secretary Chen came with Deputy Director Zhang. Not knowing what Zhang's intentions were, he smiled at the villagers and said, "I came to see how everyone is doing."
An old lady laughed cheerfully, "We are living much better now. In a few days, we will calculate our work points. I heard there will be quite a bit of money. We can have a good year this year."
The old lady smiled brightly, which made Secretary Chen's mood improve. He wanted them to talk more.
If the leaders of the Revolutionary Committee knew about Shen Annian's contributions, they might give him a lighter sentence.
The old lady's words seemed to turn on a switch, and everyone was eager to share their joy with Secretary Chen.
"I heard we can get fifty cents for one work point this year. Holy crap! In previous years, we only got one and a half cents. We're all just thankful we can get fifty cents this year. We won't have to go hungry anymore."
"I also plan to renovate the house after the New Year to prevent it from leaking when it rains."
The uncle who was speaking looked at Secretary Chen and said cautiously, "Secretary, do we need a permit to buy bricks and tiles?
I asked the team leader, and he said that he had no say in the matter and that the commune had to approve it. Secretary, is it any use asking you about this?"
Secretary Chen looked at his fellow villagers' expectant eyes and nodded with a smile.
"When the time comes, you write the note and I'll approve it."
An auntie was unwilling to lag behind, "My family also wants to build a new house, Secretary, please approve a note for my family as well."
Secretary Chen suddenly felt that the commune’s brick and tile factory might need to be expanded.
Now that the villagers have money, they will definitely want to build houses, and the amount of bricks and tiles that need to be produced in the future will probably increase.
The scale of the brick factory is too small now. It seems that he needs to ask the factory to recruit more people.
"Okay, everyone please write a note and line up first. I'm sure everyone will have enough bricks and tiles."
More and more villagers came, and Deputy Director Zhang asked about Shen Annian.
Speaking of Shen Annian, everyone talked even more.
"Thanks to Nian Nian, we have a good life."
"Nian Nian also had someone dig a biogas tank. We'll be able to use electricity in a few days."
"My grandson went to a literacy center and now he can write."
