In short, this incident was extremely bizarre, so bizarre that no one who saw it could figure out the reason even if they racked their brains.
Even the village party secretary who woke up the next morning and learned the news thought his son was joking with him.
But as soon as he finished asking the question, he realized that his son Xu Jian was not joking with him. The boy's face looked very serious.
"Really? Has the Lu family really become like that?" The village party secretary was stunned. They were fine when he went out for a drink last night.
"Dad, you should go to the commune and check on him. My Uncle Lu was like crazy last night. I wonder if he is feeling better today." Xu Jian was so worried that his brows were knotted.
Although this matter has nothing to do with him, we are all from the same village and have some feelings for each other.
"Yes, yes, I'll go now."
The village party secretary quickly put on his clothes and got off the kang.
It was almost the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and Secretary Zhang had gone back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year. He was the only elderly person in the commune who could handle things.
However, just as he got off the kang, he slapped his head and remembered, "Oh, right, the county supply and marketing cooperative is coming to our commune today to provide vegetables for the New Year. You should ask Mudan to go early, in case they can't grab any."
"Okay, got it!"
After the village party secretary walked out of his house, he took out a pipe, lit it, and walked towards the commune while smoking.
He happened to pass by Lu Fugui's house and thought he had to go in to see what had happened to him.
As soon as he stepped inside to take a look, he couldn't help cursing, "This isn't a wolf's fault, it's a bandit, right? How dare you, my grandson, mess with us in Quanshui Village?"
The village women who were pointing fingers at the Lu family and talking about it all fell silent: "..."
The village party secretary is usually very kind and amiable, but now he must be so angry that he even started swearing.
After cursing, the old man rubbed his pipe against the sole of his shoe to put it out, put it on his waist, and went to the commune with an angry face.
In fact, Commune 1 is very busy today.
The county's vegetable supply trucks are about to arrive. Some non-local cadres have already gone home for the New Year. Most of those left are educated youth. Some are cleaning the environment, while some selfish educated youth are particular about things and only want to pack their own things for the New Year.
On the other side, Dr. Wei was busy taking care of the Lu family's father and daughter, so he had to go home soon.
Kong Xingbai was directing three or five educated youth to serve the table. Once all the villagers arrived, they would have to line up, otherwise there would be chaos.
In this situation, no one noticed that after the angry village party secretary entered the commune, he went straight to the small warehouse, rummaged around, and finally found the gunpowder gun stored in the cabinet.
He checked it for a while, then finally picked it up and took aim...
At this time, Kong Xingbai also went into the warehouse to get a stool. Oh my God, as soon as he entered the door, there was a gun pointed at him, and he was so scared that his scalp tightened.
"Uncle, what are you doing?"
"I'm going into the mountains to kill that beast." The village party secretary put down the gun with a dark face, picked up the gun strap and put it on his shoulder.
"No, uncle, listen to me, that's not just one wolf, that's a whole pack of wolves. We can't kill it easily. Don't let yourself become the New Year's Eve dinner for that beast again."
The village party secretary glared: "..."
How can this child talk like that!
Kong Xingbai was also so busy that he was at a loss. When he saw the usually steady old branch secretary suddenly act like a spoiled child, he started to talk nonsense.
He quickly said, "Don't worry, after this busy period, I will organize people to go up the mountain. Not to mention a wolf pack, even if all the wolves in the world come, I will definitely wipe them out."
"You kid, are you trying to trick me with big words?" The village party secretary thought to himself, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"
Just when Kong Xingbai was at a loss for what to do, Doctor Wei suddenly rushed in. He had originally come to see Kong Xingbai, and when he saw the village party secretary was there, it was a perfect opportunity to talk to him together.
"Uncle, go and persuade Uncle Lu. He's talking nonsense again. There are so many people coming to the commune today. It's not good if it gets out."
Hearing that Lu Fugui was in trouble, the village party secretary sullenly threw the gun to Kong Xingbai and asked, "Which room is he in?"
"Infirmary."
Last night, the Lu family's father and daughter came suddenly, so Lu Fugui had to stay in the bed in the medical room for the night, while Lu Juanjuan went to the educated youth site to squeeze in with the female educated youth.
Seeing the old branch secretary rushing to the medical room, Kong Xingbai sighed: "Thank you for saving me."
Doctor Wei shook his head in amusement: "What a coincidence."
When the village party secretary entered the medical room, he saw that there was no one on the bed. Lu Fugui was squatting in a corner, holding his head and talking nonsense.
It looks like he was pretty scared last night.
Lu Fugui used to be a very smart man in the village, but he became like this overnight.
The village party secretary turned around, closed the door, and tentatively called out, "Fugui, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Fugui suddenly raised his head, only to see that his eyes were bloodshot and his face was terribly pale, but he still recognized the person in front of him. He couldn't help but grin and almost cried: "Brother, something happened!"
"What happened?" The village party secretary helped him up and said, "Come sit on the bench and tell me."
"Our family has suffered retribution." Lu Fugui pointed to the roof. "Yesterday, Juan'er drugged Zhentang. He's a soldier, a pillar of the country, and someone who will do great things in the future. God couldn't bear it and sent wolves to our house. It's over, all over."
"Don't talk nonsense. You used to be the village party secretary. Talking about these superstitious things is superstition, remember?"
The village party secretary pondered secretly.
We can't let him continue talking like this. If the people hear it, it will be disastrous.
Lu Juanjuan and Shi Zhentang are a cadre and a soldier respectively. Who cares who is right or wrong? In short, it is not good for the reputation of both children.
It is even likely to affect the reputation of Quanshui Village.
"Brother, I'm not talking nonsense. If they weren't sent by God, why did those wolves only target our Lu family?"
"The wolf is just a beast, why would it care about someone else's home? Don't worry, after New Year's Eve, I will lead people up the mountain to kill that beast and avenge you."
"No, no, no." When Lu Fugui heard that they were going to kill the wolf, he got up and ran to the wall and squatted. "We can't kill it, and it will retaliate against us. Big brother, you must listen to me and don't go up the mountain."
The village party secretary was filled with black lines on his head: "..."
Where has the Lu Fugui who used to be so confident in the face of difficulties gone?
Is he really crazy?
Seeing how frightened he was, the village party secretary had no choice but to go along with him: "Okay, I'll do as you say. Don't let your thoughts run wild, and don't say anything nonsense. Xiao Lu is your daughter, and she was wrong to do this. But if you continue to talk nonsense, it might implicate Zhentang."
When he heard the word Zhentang, Lu Fugui was so scared that he quickly covered his mouth and nodded. He didn't dare to speak nonsense anymore.
This made the village party secretary feel uncomfortable: "Fugui, you have to hold on. It's not a big deal. After the New Year, we will repair your house. We have to live in harmony. We can't let a beast defeat us!"
