“Old Party Secretary, what are you saying? Our brigade doesn’t have anyone like that. Nobody knows if there will be any accidents while we’re building the bridge. It’s risky to send anyone.”
The battalion commander was worried, and several squad leaders were also uneasy.
They were originally thinking of trying to get their family to agree to it, but now they think it's better to give up.
"Huh? Why aren't they here? Isn't the Wei family here? They've been acting all high and mighty lately, always talking about their relatives in Beijing."
"We're going to enjoy a life of luxury in the capital, and nobody dares to offend them anymore. How about we send them there instead?"
"No one would dare to compete with them. If we say that the higher-ups specifically requested the Wei family, everyone would assume that it was because the Beijing authorities opened a back door for them."
"Anyway, their family only causes trouble for the brigade. If nothing happens, all is well, but if something does happen, they can't blame us for being ruthless. Their family has caused a lot of trouble for the brigade."
The old Party Secretary shook his pipe, his eyes brightening considerably. How could he be so clever? As soon as Su Zhiqing mentioned it, he immediately thought of the Wei family.
“Yes, what the old Party Secretary said is feasible. Anyway, the Wei family has caused so much trouble, it’s better for their family to get into trouble than for the other team members.”
“There are people from every brigade, how could it be such a coincidence that a problem would occur? If something really happens, wouldn’t the commune be in an uproar?”
Several squad leaders also felt that what the old Party Secretary said made sense, and they also felt that nothing serious would happen.
At most, I'll just get a little injured. It doesn't matter if it's the Wei family or those people. Let them get a little injured, so they won't cause any trouble.
The group of people at the brigade headquarters all agreed, and finally the brigade leader nodded in agreement.
Suti smiled with satisfaction, and he and Wei Baichuan returned home with peace of mind, having successfully completed their mission.
"Wife, why give this opportunity to the Wei family?" Wei Baichuan was not as naive as the brigade leader and the others, who thought that his wife was saying those things for the sake of the brigade.
His wife was clearly guiding them to think of the Wei family.
"You heard what Su Nianyou said just now. She has bad intentions and wants you to repair the bridge. There's definitely nothing good going on here."
"Since that's what she thinks, I'll just take her back, whether it's a good thing or not." Suti couldn't bring herself to talk to him about past lives or future ones.
Anyway, it was Su Nianyou who started it. If something really happens later, Baichuan will think that evil will be punished. Luckily, it wasn't him who went.
"That's true. Wei Baidao's son is full of tricks and definitely doesn't have any good plans."
Wei Baichuan thought about it and agreed. Since they didn't know what the others were thinking, they could just push the blame onto them and let them suffer the consequences if anything happened.
When the team leader informed the members of the news, everyone was in an uproar.
"Captain, why? We'd be happy with anyone else, but we won't accept it if it goes to the Wei family." The team members were all indignant.
They were all arguing about it, and in the end, this benefit went to an unexpected family. Who can accept that?
"I don't want to either, but the higher-ups specifically requested the Wei family to go. What can I do?" The captain sighed, leaving plenty of room for interpretation.
"Assigned to the Wei family?" The team members were stunned. It took them a long time to realize what it was about, and they became even more furious.
"God is so unfair!" In the end, the team members could only look angrily at the Wei family.
It must have been one of their relatives who did this behind their backs. Shameless!
Wei Baidao and Wei Baide looked at everyone with blank expressions. How come they didn't know that they had any relatives behind them?
They had no hope of getting into the Beijing area. Did they have some mysterious relative they didn't know about?
"No, we're not going." Su Nianyou trembled with fright and quickly stepped forward.
"Has Wei Laosan's family lost their minds?" The team members were already angry, but they didn't expect them to act innocent after getting the benefit.
"Su Nianyou, who gave you the right to speak?" Wei Baidao hurriedly pulled her back. How could their family miss such a good opportunity?
“Yes, what right do you, a woman, have to speak in this family? I’m the eldest son, so it’s my duty to go,” Wei Baide quickly chimed in.
“What eldest son? You only shout loudly when there are benefits to be had. Why don’t you ever say that you are the eldest son and that you should support this family?” Wei Baidao did not back down an inch.
The two argued endlessly, while Su Nianyou's mind went completely blank. This was going to kill someone.
Bai Dao can't go. Shouldn't it be the men from the Suti family who go? How did it become their family?
And what did the captain mean by saying that the higher-ups gave this spot to their family?
Could it be that their family has some hidden backing that she doesn't know about?
Right, now everything in the book doesn't make sense. Could it be that fate has arranged another path for Baidao?
That's true, after all, he's the male protagonist in the book. So, should she stop him from building the bridge this time?
She was afraid that something would happen again, just like in the book, and she was also afraid that if she stopped him, Bai Dao would miss his opportunity again, just like last time.
Su Nianyou was caught in a dilemma, while Wei Baide and Wei Baidao kept arguing.
"Alright, there are only two people in your family and you can't even divide it equally? It's not like you've separated the family, it doesn't matter who goes." The brigade leader never had a good look for the Wei family.
He was already unsure about the situation, and the team members were also unhappy about it; they were still arguing.
"Wow!"
"Wow!"
Wei Baide and Wei Baidao spoke in unison, neither willing to back down, saying that their father had gone inside and their mother was lying down.
Whoever earns the money owns it, who cares about whom? Besides, lunch is provided, and it all goes into their own stomach.
"I'm the eldest in the family, so it's my turn."
"What's so great about being the eldest? I'm still the youngest in the family."
The two continued arguing, and the rest of the team eventually just watched the spectacle, since it wasn't their turn anyway.
It would be best if the two Wei brothers fought each other, so that neither of them could go.
"Captain, I want to report that Wei Baide starved his daughter to death and then secretly buried her. A vicious person like him should not be allowed to work on the bridge."
Wei Baidao thought for a moment. He knew that in the end, the captain might really think that Wei Baide was older than him and give the task to him.
He couldn't let this opportunity slip away; it was his only chance. Money was a minor matter; what mattered more was that he would definitely meet many leaders while repairing the bridge.
If he performs well and gains the appreciation of those leaders, it will be an opportunity for him to stand out.
Otherwise, he would have no hope for the rest of his life, and he absolutely refused to let it go.
"What?" Not only was the captain stunned, but the team members also looked at Wei Baide in disbelief.
“Wei Baide did it on purpose. He stole Wei Erni’s food and starved her to death. He even buried her himself.”
Now that he had said it, Wei Baidao wasn't afraid.
"Bullshit! Who has enough to eat these days? Erni is so young, what can I do if she starves to death?"
Wei Baide didn't think anything was wrong. Who hadn't lost a child before?
