Chapter 1223 The Deadline Is Approaching



A large group of people followed Captain Cai to the Public Security Bureau, and this scene made people walking on the street very curious.

They put their hands in their pockets and gathered in the crowd to ask, "What's going on? Why are so many of you following us to the Public Security Bureau?"

Even though there was only one person asking the question, everyone around pricked up their ears.

An old man with a gap of teeth said with a smile: "We are good citizens who are brave enough to do what is right, and we are going to the police station to testify.

There were three young men from other places who spread rumors that others were traitors, and they angered the old man to death.

We heard all these things clearly, and we are all here to testify!"

The man was shocked: "Are you talking about what happened in the Pear Garden a few days ago???"

"That's right, you said this person is completely heartless just for his own selfish desires.

Because the girl was better at studying than her and got a place to study abroad, he ran to our county and ruined the girl's reputation.

It's so shameless!"

As the large group left in a mighty manner, some people had no time to go home and cook. They just put on their shoes and followed the group to the Public Security Bureau.

The young man who asked the question just now was none other than Ni Binbin, a popular figure around the director of the food factory in the past two years.

Ni Binbin's expression changed slightly, and when he saw the man following Captain Cai, he became completely panicked.

It seems that it is impossible to drive the people out of Dahe Village.

At this point, we can only tell the factory manager the news as soon as possible.

You can also take the opportunity to sell it well!

The matter was handled smoothly. That night, Captain Cai rejected the caller with a very firm attitude.

The people over there were so angry that they were jumping up and down.

All the people were released that night. These people were good at gathering information in the city.

After returning to the yard, he recounted the events with some exaggeration.

Within one night, everyone knew about it.

They cursed the three young men.

Lu Yuan's grievances were cleared, but this incident has always been a thorn in the hearts of the Lu family.

Even if the other branches of the Lu family did not show it, Captain Lu knew in his heart that there was indeed a rift between the brothers.

After this incident, he also saw through the people in the village.

After dealing with the old man's funeral, Captain Lu submitted his resignation to the commune.

The commune secretary looked at Captain Lu, whose face was full of vicissitudes, and said softly: "I know that the villagers' approach is wrong, but you have worked diligently for so many years, and Dahe Village has developed very well under your leadership.

Now, do you think it is really appropriate to quit this position? "

Captain Lu’s voice was hoarse, his eyes were bloodshot: “Secretary, I know what you mean.

But I am old and can no longer do the job, and the younger generation under me have no intention of taking over.

So please help arrange a meeting of members and re-elect the team leader."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Secretary He, who came with the team leader, felt very sad.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something to persuade them, but his throat seemed to be stuffy with a ball of cotton. The villagers' curses and sarcasm were like thorns that not only pierced Captain Lu's heart, but also Secretary He's body.

Finally, Secretary He sighed and said, "Secretary, Old Lu has indeed been in poor health in recent years. He used to go to the hospital every day a few years ago.

There is really no other way. If he wants to withdraw, let him withdraw."

Seeing that they had both made up their minds, the secretary had no choice but to nod in agreement.

After returning to the village, Captain Lu announced the news to everyone.

Some were happy and some were worried. Some were happy that the Lu family was no longer the only dominant family, while others were worried that the new team leader would not be able to lead everyone in production.

Seeing everyone’s different expressions, Lu Zhiye sighed helplessly.

After estimating the time, Han Qing will be here in about two days.

Lu Zhiye went to the opera house and saw Old Man Han and Grandma Han sitting in the yard, fanning themselves with palm-leaf fans.

Seeing Lu Zhiye coming back, they smiled and said, "I saw you were busy the past two days, so I didn't ask you to come over.

Come and sit down. I have some frozen watermelons in the well. They were raised by your uncle Han himself. They are very sweet. "

Lu Zhiye sat down without hesitation and looked at Old Han with a smile: "How are you feeling lately?"

"well!"

Although he said this, Lu Zhiye could hear that Old Han's breath was short and his voice was weak, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have faded a little.

Lu Zhiye thought to himself that something was wrong. Old Man Han might be on his way to the end.

And there was Grandma Han, who pounded her legs three times with every step she took, breathing heavily like a worn-out old bellows.

Lu Zhiye was a little confused: "Wasn't your health good before?

Now look at it, how......"

Before Lu Zhiye could finish his words, he was interrupted by Old Han: "I am old and useless.

Both of us have lived these extra ten years, all thanks to you.

Without you, I wouldn't be able to do the job I love, and I wouldn't have the money to take care of my spouse.

You never know when you might freeze to death just because you can’t afford charcoal.

We are very content to live these extra years.”

In the past, when Old Han talked to Lu Zhiye, there was hope in his eyes, but now it is completely different.

Lu Zhiye was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Did someone tell you something?"

Old Han didn't expect that Lu Zhiye was so sharp.

He sighed, fanned the flies beside him, and said in a low voice: "I know you didn't tell us the news because you wanted us to have hope.

But people can't live their whole lives in expectations and lies.

I originally thought that at that time, I spent all my wealth to send them away for their own good.

Unexpectedly, this money would become their death warrant.

Forget it, forget it, I’m old and don’t want to think so much.

It’s better to leave, and I won’t suffer if I leave…”

His voice choked, he swayed on the recliner, and covered his face with a palm-leaf fan.

Anyone could guess that the cheek was cold beneath the palm-leaf fan.

Lu Zhiye frowned, wondering where Old Han and the others got the news from.

Did someone do this on purpose? Or did Old Han's friend kindly tell him?

Lu Zhiye was a little unsure for a moment, so he decided to stay in the county town tonight and make plans after Han Qing came over...
