Chapter 57: The Restless Zhong Jin
"Hey, what are some villagers doing? They look so nervous?" In the Youth League Institute here, Zhong Jinchen tidied up the quilts that were drying in the sun, and then saw several people outside the yard, rushing towards one place for something.
"I don't know, but I just heard that the egg-laying hens raised in the village seemed to be missing. Could it be this?" At this time, a handsome man came out of the room.
"Old hen?" When the others heard this, they were also surprised. Now it is forbidden to raise livestock in the city. At most, they can only raise some chickens and ducks, and no more than two chickens are allowed. So if someone raises a chicken, it will be treated as a treasure.
"Should we take a look together?" At this time, some people who like to have fun poked their heads out and suggested.
"Let's not do that. It would be bad if the platoon leader saw us. Didn't you see his cold face? It's as if he caught us doing something wrong." Someone suggested, and naturally someone refused. A boy on the other side just shook his head.
"Zhou Jiahe, why are you so timid?" Although the person who proposed it was a little unhappy, he turned to look at Yu Zheng who was standing at the door and said, "The squad leader has nothing to do, why don't we go and take a look?"
"It's a good thing that you are all here. I want to tell you something." Just when Yu Zheng was about to say something, Gao Youhui's voice was heard outside the wall.
"Comrade Gao? How come you have time to come here?" Zhong Jin's eyes lit up when he saw the person coming and he quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Lackey." Someone muttered quietly, but since no one's attention was on him, no quarrel broke out.
As soon as Gao Youhui came in, he took the tea handed over by Zhong Jin, but did not drink it. He put it directly on the stone table in the yard. "I have something to tell you. Stay in the house at night and don't come out. Do you understand? If anyone comes out, I will punish him."
Yu Zhengqi looked puzzled. "Deputy Platoon Leader, is there something wrong? Do you need my help? I was a soldier before, so I have quite a bit of strength."
"Xiao, then come over, but you all stay here." Gao Youhui instructed Xiao again.
"Deputy platoon leader, you have to tell us something, right? You know we are all young guys with a strong curiosity. The less you tell us, the more anxious we will be." Another boy who looked very active came over and asked.
"Xu Dayong." Yu Zheng shouted coldly.
Xu Dayong was glared at by his squad leader and immediately became dispirited. Gao Youhui looked at the expressions of the people around him and rolled his eyes. "We just discussed it and felt that the chicken thief must be from the village. We thought that he would definitely steal again at night, but we were afraid that all the people would be transferred there, and it might be a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
So there still has to be someone watching over the house, especially you educated youth. You must have brought a lot of good things when you came here, right? It would be bad if they fail to steal the chickens but try to steal other things. ”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, thinking it made sense. Zhong Jin was thinking, "What if a chicken thief comes to our yard and is caught by us? What should we do?"
Gao Youhui glanced at him and a mysterious smile appeared on his lips. "If you really catch this chicken thief, I will let Deputy Platoon Jiang cook you a delicious meal."
Seeing the disappointed expressions on everyone's faces, Gao Youhui smiled and said, "Don't underestimate this meal. Your Deputy Platoon Leader Jiang's cooking skills are not many people who have tasted it."
Looking at the backs of Gao Youhui and Yu Zhengyi, Zhong Jinyi stood at the door and thought, "Do you think what Deputy Platoon Leader Gao just said is true?"
