Chapter 33 I will give you this sentence
Zhou Jiefang still felt a little bothered by the letter of complaint. If he had done it, he wouldn't have said anything. But he didn't do it and was falsely accused, so he naturally felt uncomfortable.
Secretary He also investigated, but failed to find the whistleblower. Since the report was proven to be false, the report letter was given to Zhou Jiefang. He would take it out and look at it every day, trying to find any clues.
At that time, my daughter said that we should suppress the matter first and wait for a chance to catch the culprit later. Unexpectedly, this opportunity suddenly came.
Zhou Jiefang glanced at the name on the test paper.
Zhao Siqing.
He knew that female educated youth.
At the beginning, because of her poor health, she delayed the team's work progress and was often criticized.
Many members of her team came to him about this matter.
Even so, the female educated youth did her work at a leisurely pace, and the postman would come to deliver letters every month, all of which were sent from her home.
She has financial support from her family, so she doesn't really put any effort into her work.
And she was dating that educated youth Qiao.
Afraid that his suspicion was wrong, Zhou Jiefang took the letter of complaint and compared the handwriting with that on the test paper.
Some of the same words appear to have the same handwriting.
The person who reported him was almost certainly this female educated youth.
However, Zhou Jiefang still didn't understand why she reported him.
"At first I thought it was some member targeting you, but I didn't expect it was this female educated youth who did it. What do you think she wants?" the branch secretary couldn't help but say.
The cadres in the brigade headquarters all looked at the comparison and naturally knew about this.
They didn't say anything. After Zhou Xian finished grading all the test papers, he put them all together, except Zhao Siqing's test paper. Everyone looked at the letter of complaint.
"Dad, what are you going to do?" Zhou Xian asked.
Before Zhou Jiefang opened his mouth, a team leader said angrily, "This is slander. If the commune hadn't investigated it thoroughly, our team would have suffered the consequences. We must not let that female educated youth go."
"Yes, arrest her and ask her why she slandered others."
Zhou Xian raised his hand to signal them to be quiet, thinking that all his efforts were worth it as he finally caught the heroine.
However, she said calmly, "Everyone calm down. After all, this test paper alone cannot prove anything for a sent-down youth. Even if she really did it, what can we do if she refuses to admit it?"
"Are we just going to let her go like this?"
Zhou Xian shook his head. "After all, they are educated youth. If we deal with it privately, they might even accuse us of slandering them. So my suggestion is to take the test papers and the letter directly to the commune, explain the problem clearly to the leaders there, and ask them to handle it."
Zhou Xian paused for a moment and said, "Or, we can call the police directly. I heard that the police can identify the handwriting. As long as they confirm that the handwriting of this report letter is Comrade Zhao Siqing's, she will be unable to deny it even if she wants to."
Zhou Jiefang agreed with Zhou Xian's statement that matters involving educated youth were different from those involving members of the brigade.
Although the team leader has the right to deal with matters concerning the educated youth, he must also report them. If anything happens to the educated youth, someone from above will come down to investigate.
It would be better to just hand this matter over to the commune.
Anyway, the Taohua Brigade would not want this female educated youth. She could go anywhere but she could not stay in their brigade.
So Zhou Jiefang asked others not to make it public for the time being. He took Zhao Siqing's test paper and the letter of complaint to the commune to find Secretary He.
Zhou Xian counted the scores of the educated youth and when she saw the list of those who went for the interview, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Her third sister-in-law Wang Xuemei ranked second among the female educated youth.
If Zhao Siqing's report had not been discovered, based on her grades, she would have been ranked first among the female educated youth.
The first among the male educated youth was Qiao Donglin.
Zhou Xian was not surprised by this ranking. It was mentioned in the original text that when Zhao Siqing went to the countryside, she brought her high school textbooks with her and studied secretly with Qiao Donglin. Although Qiao Donglin did not understand, he also studied with Zhao Siqing.
It's not surprising that it's on the list.
After two days, there was still no response from the commune, and the educated youth in the brigade were getting anxious, so Zhou Xian wrote the rankings and scores of all the educated youth on a piece of paper and posted it on the bulletin board.
The test papers of several educated youth who were eligible for the interview were also posted, so that they could see for themselves how their scores were.
When they heard that the test results were out, the educated youth hurried over to take a look.
Qi Zhijie looked at his name first. It was sixth, so he was not qualified for the interview.
Looking up further, I saw Qiao Donglin's name was ranked first.
He bumped Qiao Donglin with his shoulder, smiling, "Dongli, you're number one."
Having said that, he went to the female educated youth to look for Zhao Siqing's name, but no matter how many times he looked, he couldn't find Zhao Siqing.
"Strange, why is Siqing not listed here? Did it get missed?"
Zhao Siqing also didn't find her name. She bit her lip and looked several times but didn't see it.
"I heard that the test papers were made by Zhou Xian and she was also the one who graded them. Donglin, do you think she might have deliberately excluded Siqing?" After Qi Zhijie was sure that he did not find Zhao Siqing's name, he turned to Qiao Donglin and said.
No matter how the educated youth performed in the exam, their names were on the list except Zhao Siqing. No one would believe that she didn't do it on purpose.
Qiao Donglin looked towards the brigade headquarters with a cold face, then walked over quickly. Seeing Zhou Xian sitting at the desk, he walked straight over.
Seeing this, the other educated youth hesitated for a moment. Although it had nothing to do with them, they were on the same side after all, so they followed over to see what was going on.
Qiao Donglin had no patience for Zhou Xian. He was even disgusted with her for removing Zhao Siqing on her own initiative. He didn't even bother to ask polite words and directly asked, "Why is Siqing's name not on the list? Zhou Xian, if you have any dissatisfaction, just come to me. Don't use such despicable means. It will only make me look down on you even more."
Zhou Xian looked up at the male protagonist who was coming at him aggressively, and for a moment he was speechless with the look in his eyes.
Zhao Siqing followed in, her eyes red, and she looked at Zhou Xian stubbornly, "Comrade Zhou, I don't know what I did wrong to make you treat me like this, but I hope you know that evil will never prevail over justice."
As for Qi Zhijie, he stood behind the two of them and glared at Zhou Xian with an indignant look on his face.
Zhou Xian took a deep breath and managed to hold back from rolling his eyes. How dare they say that evil cannot prevail over good? How could they be so shameless?
The cadres in the brigade headquarters stood up immediately and were about to speak when Zhou Xian spoke first.
She crossed her arms and ignored Qiao Donglin. She just looked at Zhao Siqing with a mocking expression, "Zhao Zhiqing, your test paper is a little special. You are not in the team now. Just wait. Someone will come to notify you when the time comes."
Zhao Siqing suddenly panicked and remembered the letter of complaint. But she soon calmed down. She was the only one who knew about the letter of denunciation, and she deliberately avoided Qiao Donglin and Qi Zhijie to avoid any complications.
She thought she had done it secretly and felt that Zhou Xian couldn't possibly know about it and might just be trying to trick her.
"Don't scare me. I'm not afraid."
Zhou Xian shrugged and said, "I'll give you this sentence back."
Seeing Zhou Xian's calm appearance, Zhao Siqing hesitated. On the one hand, she thought that Zhou Xian couldn't possibly know that it was her who did it, but on the other hand, she felt that maybe he knew something, so he dared to say that.
While he was hesitating, Qi Zhijie spoke first, "Zhou Xian, stop pretending. Everyone knows that you like Donglin. I think you are just jealous of Comrade Siqing, so you deliberately removed her from the list."
Zhou Xian looked him up and down, then sneered, "Comrade, please think carefully before you speak. It is illegal to slander others."
A crowd of people had gathered at the door to watch the fun. They were also confused as to why the names of all the educated youth who had registered for the exam were there, except Zhao Siqing's.
Qi Zhijie snorted with disdain and insisted that Zhou Xian was deliberately taking revenge.
"Zhou Xian, don't go too far!" Qiao Donglin said to Zhou Xian while gritting his teeth.
The look he gave Zhou Xian was also extremely cold, as if looking at her for even one more second would dirty his eyes.
But at this moment, the system popped up to mess with him, and read out the plot in the original text to Zhou Xian. "Qiao Donglin looked at Zhou Xian with a very cold gaze, as if he was looking at a dead person. He gave this woman chances again and again, and tolerated her again and again, but he didn't expect that she would never repent. He didn't need to be soft on her anymore."
Zhou Xian slapped the table in front of her, and the desk, which was not very sturdy to begin with, was broken into pieces by her slap.
The broken wood fell all over the ground with a crash. Qiao Donglin was standing close to it, so a lot of it hit his feet.
Zhou Xian stood up and looked at them and said, "Why is Zhao Zhiqing's name not on the list? Instead of asking me, you should ask Zhao Zhiqing if he has done anything wrong and whether he is worthy of participating in the selection of broadcasters."
As he spoke, Zhou Xian turned his gaze to Zhao Siqing and asked directly, "Comrade Zhao Siqing, what do you think?"
Zhao Siqing avoided Zhou Xian's gaze and said, "I don't know what you are talking about. You have no evidence. Don't try to slander me."
Seeing that she was unwilling to answer the questions directly and her words were obviously lacking in confidence, the educated youth felt that there was a problem. The educated youth who were just watching the fun could not imagine for a moment what Zhao Siqing had done to be caught by the people in the team.
Seeing this, Qi Zhijie couldn't help but curl his lips, "That sounds nice, but generally speaking, aren't the first place students admitted directly? Why do you have to choose from the top three? Aren't you just being partial to your own family members?"
While speaking, his eyes glanced at Wang Xuemei who was standing at the door.
When the list was announced, Wang Xuemei was still at home. She did not come with the other educated youth. She was named as soon as she arrived. She didn't know what was going on at the moment, but she knew that what educated youth Qi said was not good.
"If I were partial to my family, wouldn't I just let them be the broadcasters? Why would I go to so much trouble to secure opportunities for you educated youth? Qi Zhiqing, are you targeting me on purpose because you didn't get selected?"
"You are talking nonsense, why would I target you?"
"Then why are you so active in Zhao Zhiqing's affairs? Look, Zhao Zhiqing himself hasn't said anything."
Qi Zhijie then realized that he was the one who had spoken the most up to now.
Zhao Siqing didn't say much himself, but he still helped charge into battle.
