It's no wonder Qin Qingman made such a guess. The main reason is that although Peng Xiaonan gives people the feeling of a fresh graduate, she has seen countless people in her later life and has personally recruited at least 500 subordinates.
Qin Qingman had long developed a pair of sharp eyes, and no matter how innocent Peng Xiaonan pretended to be, he could not escape her eyes.
It's definitely not white lotus, but it's definitely green tea.
Still a green tea of low rank.
Otherwise, with Zheng Anguo's many years of experience in knowing people, he didn't remind himself. It shows that Peng Xiaonan even deceived Zheng Anguo in the past.
Qin Qingman did not dislike the tea that Peng Xiaonan made for her. She believed that the cup must have been cleaned, so she picked up the cup and brought it close to her lips. She did not drink it, but her action showed her respect for Peng Xiaonan who poured the tea for her.
Peng Xiaonan, who was sitting opposite Qin Qingman, had been keeping an eye on her out of the corner of her eye. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Qin Qingman pick up the cup and drink the tea. Then she took the initiative to find the relevant files for Qin Qingman with confidence.
The scope of work of the commune women's director is quite broad. She assists the commune president in promoting and implementing the government's policies and guidelines in rural areas, assists other functional departments in managing the party style and clean government of the entire commune, and promotes the Marriage Law and other related work.
The top priority of women's work is to speak for women, care about the physical and mental health of lesbian women, awaken women's will, and help lesbian women fight for their legitimate rights.
Overall, women's work is varied and important.
No wonder the women's director at the commune level has to be equipped with an assistant. This is because the workload of the women's director is very heavy and she often has to deal with various women-related tasks.
Fights between couples, conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, even unfilial children, parental oppression and arranged marriages for their children are all under the jurisdiction of the women's director.
This position has considerable power, it all depends on how it is exercised.
Qin Qingman had met Zheng Guihua, the previous women's director of the commune. Perhaps in Zheng Guihua's understanding, the position of women's director was just about managing the gossips of other people, so she herself did not take it seriously.
Zheng Guihua herself did not take it seriously, and it was even less likely that other cadres in the commune would take the initiative to decentralize power.
Therefore, Zheng Guihua did not have any power as the commune women's director. She was just a staff member slightly better than Peng Xiaonan.
Qin Qingman understood the rights of her position clearly and must demonstrate her status at the right time. To put it bluntly, in this world, there are only men and women.
How can a position that manages women be without power?
Qin Qingman was in a good mood and carefully studied the files that Peng Xiaonan had moved out for her. It was not time to get off work yet. She was elected today and started get off work, so she had to work on her first day.
Peng Xiaonan did not deal with it half-heartedly, and the files he found were all complete.
After watching for more than an hour, Qin Qingman almost understood how the women's directors of each commune in the past handled women's affairs.
To be honest, she was very dissatisfied with the handling of these files.
It can be seen that they are all just trying to smooth things over and have not achieved any substantive solution at all, especially in some cases of marital discord, where it can be seen that the husband is obviously abusing his wife. The ultimate solution is for both parties to take a step back, for the sake of the children, for family harmony, and for survival. In the end, home is still home.
The disadvantaged groups who are victims of domestic violence will still be victims of domestic violence.
Qin Qingman saw the handling of several similar cases in succession. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she closed the file box and glanced at the sky outside the window.
It's March now, and the sky gets dark a little later here than before.
"Comrade Qin, it's almost time to get off work. Do you think we should go home or stay for an extra meeting?" Peng Xiaonan, who was sitting at the desk opposite Qin Qingman, carefully asked Qin Qingman, acting like a cautious and timid young man.
"Is it time to get off work?"
Qin Qingman raised her wrist in surprise and took a look.
The watch Wei Ling gave her was ticking away on her wrist.
"It's indeed four o'clock, comrades, let's pack up and go off work." Qin Qingman said with a smile, and then sorted out the things on her desk. She liked things to be tidy, and she would make sure to pack up before leaving.
Peng Xiaonan saw Qin Qingman tidying up her desk, so he quickly stood up and said, "Comrade Qin, can I help you clean up?"
"Comrade Xiaonan, I can clean up the things on the desk myself. I just arrived at the office and don't know it very well. I'm sorry to trouble you guys." Qin Qingman knew that Peng Xiaonan and others must be cleaning the office. As a leader, she must acknowledge the efforts of these comrades.
"The office belongs to all of us, and we should do our part."
When Liang Kang and Meng Fei heard Qin Qingman's words, they stood up like Peng Xiaonan.
"Comrades, it's time to get off work. Go home early and see you tomorrow." Qin Qingman simply packed up and left the office. She knew that she was the only cadre there and the others would feel embarrassed to leave.
Qin Qingman left the office, and the three people in the office breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.
This time when they sat down, the three of them were not as restrained as when Qin Qingman was around.
After all, no matter how young Qin Qingman is, she is still a cadre, unlike them.
"I told you that Comrade Qin Qingman is very easy to get along with, but you didn't believe me." Liang Kang admired Qin Qingman the most, and as soon as Qin Qingman left, he immediately showed off proudly to his two colleagues.
They had all worked in the same office for at least a year, were very familiar with each other, and spoke very casually in private.
"It's Comrade Qin's first day here. We don't know his personality and temper. We should pay more attention to him. I can see that he is very serious about his work. We should also be more serious in our work in the future."
Peng Xiaonan is a girl and more sensitive, so the other two people were able to accept what she said.
"Xiaonan, didn't you say you were going to help your grandfather's house today? You go first, Liang Kang and I will clean the office." Meng Fei pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and looked at Peng Xiaonan with concern.
The three of them have been working together for quite some time and they usually chat about family matters.
"That's not good. The office is not big anyway. It will be faster if the three of us clean it. I'll go with you." Peng Xiaonan did not shirk the responsibility of cleaning because of Meng Fei's words, but insisted on staying.
"Xiao Nan, please come back soon. The office is so small that it won't take Meng Fei and I much time to clean it."
Liang Kang stood up, stretched, turned around and left the office to get a mop.
After get off work, they clean the office early so they can go home earlier. Even though it gets dark later, it is still nothing compared to summer. If they don't clean quickly, it will be dark when they get home.
"Liang Kang, Meng Fei, I'll serve you tea and water tomorrow."
Seeing that Liang Kang and the others were truly not concerned, Peng Xiaonan quickly put on a brilliant smile, then happily left the office with her bag.
It was snowing heavily, so of course she didn't like touching cold water. The water here was so cold that it could make one's fingers hurt.
Fortunately, the two guys in the office are not the kind of people who like to calculative things. She has only a few opportunities to clean the office this winter. Even if she can't avoid it, she will try her best to do jobs like sweeping the floor.
You don't need to touch cold water when sweeping the floor, so you won't freeze your fingers.
Peng Xiaonan left happily, Liang Kang and Meng Fei cleaned the office honestly. Qin Qingman, who left earlier, did not return to Kaoshantun, but met Huang Wanqing at the gate of the commune.
Huang Wanqing only worked half a day today because she was worried about Qin Qingman's election, so she simply took the afternoon off and then went to the commune with Zheng Meiqin.
Huang Wanqing only realized how deep the suspense of Qin Qingman's election was when she arrived at the scene. It was more exciting than watching a drama, and made her admire Qin Qingman even more.
In that situation, Qin Qingman turned the tables with just a few words.
It's amazing.
Huang Wanqing thought about it again and again, and felt that there was nothing remarkable about Qin Qingman's rebuttal to Wei Fan, as they were all facts. However, she knew clearly that if she were faced with such a situation, she might not be able to think of such a way out at once.
This must be the quick wit her father once told her.
Some people are clear-headed and quick-witted when facing a crisis, while others become nervous and panicky, with an empty mind and nothing to think of. This should be the difference between people.
"Wanqing, I told you not to wait, why are you still waiting? It's so cold outside."
As soon as Qin Qingman walked out of the commune gate, she saw Huang Wanqing and hurried over.
"Qingman, I'm not cold. I'm wearing plenty of clothes. Besides, I was just in a state-owned hotel. There was a stove in the hotel, so I'm not cold. If you don't believe me, touch my hand." Huang Wanqing smiled happily at Qin Qingman.
Take off your gloves at the same time.
"Okay, as long as you're not cold, don't take off your gloves." Qin Qingman quickly stopped Huang Wanqing from doing anything stupid.
"Qingman, the jacket is very warm. I sweat if I stay close to the stove." Huang Wanqing was really happy. This was the first time she wore a leather jacket. She had seen leather jackets for sale in shopping malls in Beijing before, but she never bought any.
Not only did she not buy it, no one in her family bought it either. It’s not because they couldn’t afford it, but because they wanted to keep a low profile.
The more prestigious a family is in the capital, the more low-key they tend to be at home.
After all, leaders from the chairman to the prime minister are frugal and low-key, and those who have access to this level must also keep in step. This is the so-called top-down effect, and it is political vision and foresight.
Qin Qingman could see that Huang Wanqing was in a very good mood, so she explained, "The jacket is indeed warm. In the past, more people here would wear leather."
She was talking about the time before the hunting ban.
This is a forest area with little grain production. At that time, every household could go up the mountain to hunt. The climate in the Northeast is not suitable for growing cotton, so people here wear fur more than cotton clothes in winter.
Fur is breathable and warm, making it the best warm clothing in winter.
After liberation, the population increased dramatically, which led to a huge consumption of daily necessities. This, coupled with the ban on hunting, made furs much more scarce.
In this era, families that can wear fur are definitely middle-class families.
Qin Qingman's family was able to buy a lot of leather because Wei Ling gave her all his savings since he started working. Otherwise, she would have been powerless.
"Sister-in-law, when will Brother Wei come home?" Huang Wanqing suddenly asked an unexpected question.
Huang Wanqing was indeed naturally afraid of Wei Ling, but she did respect him. Seeing that Wei Ling had not returned home for a long time, as a younger sister, she was a little worried, especially with the arrival of Wang Chengping and other soldiers today.
To be honest, when Huang Wanqing saw the jeep and the soldiers, she thought it was Wei Ling coming.
The result is not.
Instead, it aroused her concern for Wei Ling.
Qin Qingman knew that Wei Ling had not returned home, which aroused Huang Wanqing's suspicion, but to be honest, she didn't know when Wei Ling would be able to return home, so she could only look at Huang Wanqing and said seriously: "Wanqing, Ah Ling will return home when he should."
"Sister-in-law, I understand."
Huang Wanqing immediately realized that she had asked the wrong question.
Wei Ling is a soldier, a soldier stationed on the border. The whereabouts of such a soldier are completely irregular. Only Wei Ling himself knows when he will go home and when he can go home.
"Wanqing, if someone asks you about A Ling, you know nothing about it."
Qin Qingman explained seriously to Huang Wanqing. Now Huang Wanqing lived with them and knew some of Yu Weiling's whereabouts.
Huang Wanqing nodded quickly, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I know what to do."
There are many military members in her family, and they know what kind of discipline their family members should abide by.
Seeing that Huang Wanqing was frightened, Qin Qingman quickly smiled and said a few other words, which could be said to be changing the topic related to Wei Ling.
The two are several years apart in age and have a lot in common.
We are all educated and have a cultural background, so it is particularly easy to talk about many things.
Just as the two were talking in a low voice, Zheng Anguo and Qian Xiangyang came out of the commune gate. As soon as they came out, Zheng Feng, who came to pick them up back to Kaoshantun, also approached quickly on a sled.
"Girl Wanqing."
Zheng Feng was surprised to see Huang Wanqing standing next to Qin Qingman. He thought he had to go to the farm gate to pick up Huang Wanqing as usual today.
"Uncle Zheng Feng, I asked for leave at noon." Huang Wanqing looked at Zheng Feng and smiled.
Zheng Feng immediately understood the reason. He knew that Huang Wanqing came to the commune because she was worried about Qin Qingman's election. He did not come in the morning because he had something to do at home. As a result, he met the villagers who returned to the village just after noon.
Many people from Kaoshan Village came to Qin Qingman's election this time. These young people had strong legs and could walk fast. As soon as they returned to the village, they explained the matter of the commune election clearly to the people who stayed in the village.
Everyone gathered at the entrance of the village, and when they heard Wei Fan and some commune officials making things difficult for Qin Qing, they were all filled with anger and dissatisfaction.
How can you get a unanimous vote and still be doubted?
Are we not allowing the people being voted for to be respected by everyone just because they are too good?
Everyone in Kaoshantun who had not come to the commune was very angry and they wanted to rush to the commune immediately to seek justice for Qin Qingman.
Fortunately, the young men did not keep the secret and quickly told the story of how Qin Qingman later dealt with Wei Fan, and how the deputy county chief, the commune president, and the leaders of the provincial military region came forward to support Qin Qingman.
This calmed everyone's anger.
At the same time, everyone was smiling and satisfied that Qin Qingman was elected as a commune cadre.
It was in the village that Zheng Feng learned about the crisis Qin Qingman was facing in the commune. He rushed to the commune on a sled at the right time. Today, he had an extra stool on his sled.
"elder sister."
Before Zheng Feng could say anything, there was a sudden sound from the sled, and at the same time the thick blanket was lifted up, revealing Chuchu who was wrapped up like a ball.
"Chu Chu heard about what happened in the town and insisted on coming to pick you up. I thought the child wouldn't take up much space, so I brought him along. He must have fallen asleep leaning on the sled just now." Zheng Feng explained as he looked at Chu Chu who was rushing towards Qin Qingman.
Only then did Zheng Anguo and the others know why Chuchu followed them.
"Are you cold?" Qin Qingman hugged Chu Chu tightly. To be honest, it was a bit strenuous for her.
The main reason is that Chuchu has gained weight this winter. Not only has she gained weight, but she is also wrapped in such thick clothes. Qin Qingman's body is a little thin, so it is indeed a little difficult for her to hug Chuchu like this.
Chuchu originally thought that she would be scolded by Qin Qingman for coming to the town, and she was prepared to be scolded.
As a result, Qin Qingman not only did not scold him, but also picked him up.
The child was immediately moved, hugged Qin Qingman and rubbed her, "Sister, I'm not cold, I'm not cold at all, I was so warm wrapped in a blanket just now."
"Then let's go back." Qin Qingman saw a little sweat on the tip of Chuchu's nose and knew that the child was really not cold, so she quickly called Zheng Anguo and others to get on the sled.
Even though it's still early, it will probably be dark when they are halfway through the journey.
Have to leave early.
"Let's go home quickly. We can talk about it when we get home." Zheng Anguo didn't plan to say anything more at the gate of the commune. Seeing Qin Qingman holding Chuchu and walking towards the sled, he also pulled Qian Xiangyang and walked towards the sled.
“Dudu…dudu, sis, dudu.”
After Chu Chu's joy, she became nervous and incoherent.
"What's wrong with Dudu?" Qin Qingman looked at the sled in disbelief.
Then, a black mass appeared on the sled that Zheng Anguo had opened.
The black ball was curled up on the sled and sleeping soundly. When it felt the blanket being lifted, it opened its eyes and looked over, then jumped up and pounced on Qin Qingman.
Zheng Anguo and Qian Xiangyang: ...
Huang Wanqing smiled at Chuchu and raised her fist.
Zheng Feng had a slightly awkward smile on his face. "Chuchu wants to come along, and of course his dog Dudu should come too. They don't take up much space anyway, so I'll let them all get on the sled."
Ever since the wolf cub made a great contribution when Qin Qingman rescued people, the people in Kaoshan Village have been fond of and tolerant of the wolf cub and are not afraid of him at all.
Even the hunting dogs in the village didn't bark when they saw Dudu.
Qin Qingman put Chuchu down expressionlessly, then grabbed the wolf cub and held him in her arms, "Hurry up and get in the car, we have to go home." She sat next to Zheng Anguo as she said this.
Chuchu and Huang Wanqing looked at each other, stuck out their tongues, and then got on the sled.
Everyone sat down and checked the charcoal fire on the sled. Seeing that there was no problem, they put thick blankets on their legs. With a shout from Zheng Feng, the horses turned around and ran towards Kaoshantun.
The people sitting on the sled were all his own people. Zheng Anguo did not wait until they got back to the village to talk, and directly said to Qin Qingman: "The organizing committee member of your office is called Zhao Chunjing, and she is Zhou Jingguo's wife."
This is why he didn't say more about Zhao Chunjing in the office before.
Qin Qingman had never thought that Zhou Jingguo's wife would occupy such a position as the commune's organization committee member. This position was not prominent in the commune, but it would be very important in the county. "Did Zhao Chunjing not go to work today?"
She remembered that she had not seen Zhao Chunjing today.
"Yes, Zhao Chunjing took a few days off. It is said that she injured her knee and can't walk." Zheng Anguo replied to Qin Qingman.
Qin Qingman had a guess that Zhao Chunjing's request for leave might be related to Gao Yefang. She remembered how disdainful Zhao Chunjing was towards Gao Yefang when Zhou Jingguo and his wife came to propose to Huang Wanqing.
"Qingman, you have to be careful with Zhao Chunjing." Zheng Anguo reminded Qin Qingman.
"Secretary, don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Qin Qingman nodded.
