Chapter 35: The Final Settlement



Chapter 35 The Final Revenge

That morning, the bureau's shuttle bus brought a lot of people to the farm.

The bus stopped in the open space in front of the cafeteria, and soon, a group of people got off.

"Take down your luggage first, and then gather for roll call."

The luggage on the roof of the car was piled high. Lin Zuo and the other two directed everyone to start unloading the car, and the scene seemed chaotic.

It was still early, Li Guixiang and Qin Xiaomei had just started washing vegetables, and Du Shaojie was sitting on a bench to rest. Hearing the noise, the three of them walked out curiously to take a look.

At this glance, Du Shaojie found several familiar faces.

At this time, Zhao Dajun came over with several people from the farm office, and Lin Zuo and the other three came forward to talk to them.

"Doctor Wang, Section Chief Jiang, why are you here?"

Du Shaojie couldn't help but approach Wang Liwen and Jiang Xianfa.

"Don't mention it. I get angry when you mention it. I'll talk to you in detail later. Anyway, we are here to work and study, and we will have to rely on you to take care of us in the future."

Jiang Xianfa shook his head when he saw Du Shaojie.

Wang Liwen forced a smile, then quietly pointed at Lin Zuo and the other three, indicating that it was not the time to talk now.

"Okay, I'm just about to prepare lunch, let's talk later."

Du Shaojie looked at Lin Zuo who was standing not far away. This man was of medium build and had a pair of triangular eyes. When he talked to Zhao Dajun, his face was expressionless.

He was not very familiar with this Lin Zuo, but only knew that he was Wu Mingde's confidant.

However, Du Shaojie did not leave immediately, but walked towards Zhao Dajun.

"Director Zhao, there are so many new comrades today. Do we need to prepare more lunch?"

Zhao Dajun turned to look at Du Shaojie and said, "I was just looking for you. We need to prepare 23 more meals for lunch. It doesn't matter if it's a little late. Is that okay?"

"No problem. I'll go up and prepare it right away."

Du Shaojie nodded, then turned around and returned to the cafeteria, without looking at Lin Zuo and the others from beginning to end.

Lin Zuo glanced at Du Shaojie calmly, and immediately labeled him a "thorn" in his heart.

This kid not only offended Director Wu, but he was still arrogant even in this situation.

"Aunt Qin, Sister Li, the director asked us to prepare 23 more meals for lunch. Let's hurry up and don't delay the meal."

Du Shaojie rearranged the lunch, and the three people in the cafeteria got busy.

Fortunately, there are not many dishes on weekdays, and it is not a difficult task to increase the quantity of each variety.

Lunch.

Chen Jizhou and others' team expanded again. After Du Shaojie finished cooking, he went to the front to help serve food.

As a result, he met another acquaintance, Jiang Yong.

"Director Jiang, you are here too. Why didn't I see you before?"

"I was not feeling well today. I have been sleeping in the car. They woke me up after unloading the luggage."

Du Shaojie noticed that the other party's face was not very good, so he did not ask any more questions.

There is a lack of medical care and medicine on the farm. It will be troublesome if you are not in good health.

The atmosphere in the cafeteria today is rather dull, especially for the newcomers who are all restless and no one wants to talk.

It was not until the afternoon that Du Shaojie figured out that Lin Zuo and the other three were members of the working group stationed on the farm by the bureau, and Lin Zuo was the team leader.

The main responsibility of the working group is to manage the labor learning objects, but Zhao Dajun still has the final say on the farm.

"Master Du, we are leaving first. You should go back and rest early."

After dinner, Li Guixiang and Qin Xiaomei cleaned the cafeteria inside and out and prepared to go off work.

Du Shaojie was in the back kitchen, practicing carving with a radish in his hand.

He returned to the dormitory alone, unlike the two of them who had families with them, and was not in a hurry to go back.

"You two go first, I'll be done soon."

Du Shaojie responded, and continued to concentrate on carving the "radish flower".

After more than an hour, the work was completed, and he felt that it was still a little bit short of the mark. Of course, the radish was not wasted. He washed it again and ate it quickly.

Then, he poked the fire, heated the pot first, then put a little oil, and quickly fried some peanuts.

The oil is still precious now, and people are generally reluctant to use wide oil to fry.

After frying, he put the peanuts into the lunch box, covered it, sealed the furnace and locked the door, and walked into the night.

Peanuts were the reward he got when he went home before. Before returning to the farm, he deliberately brought two kilograms, but there was no such thing in the farm canteen.

Du Shaojie did not go back to the dormitory directly, but made a circle and came to the back of the cowshed.

There is a small mound here, which can be sheltered from the wind and avoid the sight of others. It is a good place.

Recently, Du Shaojie and Chen Jizhou have been meeting here. Now that the working group has moved in, everyone has become more cautious.

"Xiao Du, come here quickly."

Zhai Yucheng was the first to see him and called him over softly.

Chen Jizhou was also there, and there was also Jiang Xianfa. The three of them were eagerly waiting for Du Shaojie.

Du Shaojie walked up to him and didn't waste any words. He immediately took out a bottle of Erguotou and a lunch box of fried peanuts from his schoolbag.

Jiang Xianfa picked up the bottle, bit the cap with his teeth, and handed it to Chen Jizhou. So, the three of them drank one after another, and it was so comfortable to drink a sip of wine and eat a few peanuts.

"Wu Mingde is really a piece of shit. He only knows how to play tricks on people. He used the Dai Tong incident as an excuse to settle scores later and brought me here.

Xiao Wang and Director Jiang said the wrong thing. In short, all the people who came here are unwilling to stand with him, Wu Mingde."

Jiang Xianfa took a few sips of wine and began to curse Wu Mingde.

The last time the investigation team came to investigate Dai Tong, he was very active, but Wu Mingde held a grudge against him.

Now, they took a chance and sent Jiang Xianfa to the farm.

"Old Jiang, it's only a year or two, just grit your teeth and it will pass. What's more, we still have foreign aid. Now we can drink wine and eat peanuts, thanks to Xiao Du."

Zhai Yucheng is an optimist and never complains.

Chen Jizhou is more sophisticated and usually doesn't curse people behind their backs. But for Wu Mingde, he just wants to say: fuck him.

"Eating and drinking can't stop you two from talking. Hurry up, eat and drink well and go back to sleep. Chief Engineer Zhai, I tell you, I still have the last bottle of wine in my hand, and it's gone after I drink it."

Du Shaojie is now very familiar with Chen Jizhou and Zhai Yucheng, and often jokes with Zhai Yucheng, as if he has become a close friend with them regardless of age.

However, what he said today was not a joke.

What is Lin Zuo doing here? It's to act as Wu Mingde's eyes and ears. It's not that I'm afraid of anything, but I try not to be caught by others, which is not good for anyone.

"Listen to Xiao Du, let's go back early. I know Lin Zuo very well, he is not a good person."

Chen Jizhou thought it would be better to be careful recently, the key is not to cause trouble to Du Shaojie.

The three of them drank again, and the remaining wine was directly put into their clothes along with the bottle.

The peanuts were not finished yet, Zhai Yucheng took out half a piece of old newspaper from his pocket, poured out the peanuts, wrapped them up, and planned to take them back.

Du Shaojie put away the lunch box and went straight back to the dormitory.
