Captain Lu smoked his pipe even more vigorously, and for a moment he was unsure of what to do.
He had the courage to let the educated youth take leave to review because he felt that this was the first year that the college entrance examination was resumed and it was the hope of many people.
In addition, the educated youth had worked hard for so many years and had some food and money saved.
Even if I really failed the exam, I still had a way out and could hold on until the next year when food was distributed. There would be no problem.
But nowadays, the educated youth have put all their attention on the college entrance examination.
The food is almost gone. If I fail the exam, life will be so difficult this year!
Wu Zhijie gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Captain Lu, was it because your son and daughter-in-law were going to take the college entrance examination?
You wanted them to take leave to review as well, so you agreed to let us take leave.
Now that they have both been admitted to university, you are free, so why don’t you think about us personally? ? "
His words made the educated youth next to him open their eyes wide in shock.
The female educated youth who had spoken earlier quickly shook her head, took a step back, and said with a red face, "Captain Lu, this is just Comrade Wu Zhijie's idea.
We definitely didn’t think so…”
She was so anxious that she almost cried. She saw that Captain Lu was about to give in, but now, Wu Zhijie's words completely offended him.
Seeing Captain Lu's face as gloomy as the bottom of a pot, the educated youth all had a bad feeling in their hearts.
Wu Zhijie was desperate and shouted without caring about anything: "Everyone, come and see, is such a selfish captain still qualified to lead our team?"
What he said was very serious, and the smiles on the faces of the villagers who were watching the fun around them turned cold.
The aunt with pigtails took a step forward. She was Captain Lu’s closest friend, so she naturally went to Captain Lu.
"Wu Zhiqing, isn't what you said a bit too much?
Earlier, when Captain Lu approved your leave despite all the pressure, you wanted to kneel down and thank him.
Now, for their own selfish reasons, they are trying to accuse others of something.”
Many educated youth who shared Wu Zhijie's idea blushed secretly.
"You are so educated that you have graduated from high school. Now it seems that you are not as good as the elementary school kids in our village."
"That's right. Captain Lu is really thinking about the village. We all see it. He is not worthy of leading us. Are you worthy of leading us?"
Wu Zhijie blushed and yelled, "Did I say something wrong?
Why don’t you give us leave? You gave us leave before, why don’t you give us leave now?”
Secretary He slammed his pipe heavily on the table and shouted angrily: "Wu Zhiqing, you should speak according to your conscience. Captain Lu never said from the beginning to the end that he would not approve your leave.
It means making the interests involved clear to you.
Whether you ask for leave or not is your own business, and you will bear the consequences yourself.
You don’t want to bear the consequences, but you also want Captain Lu to approve your leave. How can such a good thing be possible? ? ? "
Wu Zhijie wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the person next to him pulling his sleeve.
"That's enough, Wu Zhiqing. If we continue to make trouble, it will not benefit any of us."
Wu Zhijie's chest heaved violently and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
The people around him saw that they couldn't persuade him, so they covered his mouth and dragged him out.
The huge brigade headquarters suddenly became quiet.
The female educated youth was afraid that Captain Lu would disagree, so she said quickly: "Captain Lu, I have been on leave for more than a month, and I will bear all the responsibilities myself.
I accept the subsequent withholding of food. Captain, Secretary He, I still have to study, so I’ll leave first.”
After saying that, she lowered her head and walked quickly.
Other educated youth made the same choice.
After all the educated youth had left, Captain Lu rubbed his temples helplessly.
"Alas, I guess there are quite a few people who think so."
Secretary He patted him on the shoulder and consoled him: "No matter what others think, we just need to have a clear conscience."
"I hope so."
Captain Lu hunched over and walked tiredly towards the gate.
On the other side, Lu Zhiye looked at the book in front of him and felt a throbbing pain in his temples.
These were all sent to him by Wen Sihe. After being transformed by the spiritual spring water, he can remember everything he sees.
But there are so many books, stacked up to half a person's height, which looks really scary.
Director Li walked into Lu Zhiye's office when he had nothing to do. When he saw the books on his desk, he was a little confused.
"Xiao Lu, why do you have so many high school textbooks? Are you going to take the college entrance examination too?"
When Director Li said this, he laughed.
Give up your job as the director of the sales department in the factory, take the college entrance examination, and then be assigned to a large factory? Start as a junior employee? ? ?
Anyone who does this must be a fool, right?
However, the next moment, Captain Lu saw Lu Zhiye taking notes and nodding his head, saying, "I do have this plan..."
Before he could finish his next words, he was interrupted by Director Li's sharp voice: "Are you crazy?
Or are you out of your mind? ? Why would you take a test when you have nothing else to do? ? "
Lu Zhiye raised his eyelids nonchalantly: "My wife was admitted to Beijing University. For my own face, I have to get a diploma, right?
Otherwise, when we go out, my wife will be laughed at by others, saying that her husband is a peasant who didn't even graduate from elementary school. How embarrassing would that be?"
Lu Zhiye paused and continued, "My father-in-law and mother-in-law are both highly educated people, so I have to get a diploma before I can go to their house.
Director Li, you don’t know that there are quite a few people living near their family compound, and they can only be seen here…”
As Lu Zhiye spoke, he pointed at the newspaper at hand.
Director Li's pupils shrank slightly. The people living nearby were all the leaders mentioned in the newspapers. Lu Zhiye's father-in-law must also be an official of high rank...
The more Director Li thought about it, the more frightened he became. He even spoke cautiously, "Then there won't be any problems with your identity, right?"
Lu Zhiye closed the book in his hand and said with a smile: "If no one reports it, there shouldn't be any problem.
If someone has bad intentions, there will probably be some twists and turns.
But don't worry, Director Li, we also know a few capable people who can help you sort it out."
Lu Zhiye's intention was very clear when he said this.
I am telling Director Li, don't have any bad intentions. Before you take any action, consider the people behind me first.
Director Li laughed dryly, collected his thoughts, and coughed lightly: "Then you study first. I remember I have something else to do in the factory, so I won't disturb you."
