Chapter 226: Policies from above, countermeasures from below
When Ruan Anan arrived at the security office, the skinny monk was standing in the yard brushing his teeth. She stood at the door and waved at him, "Hurry up, hurry up, Sister Li asked you to take Fatty with you."
The two red armbands of the Public Security Department are called Fat Man and Thin Man by people on Nansha Island.
They didn't mind either, and instead felt that the two names were very suitable for their characteristics.
The skinny monk quickly put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Is there a drama so soon? Sister Li was very clear about it last night."
As he spoke, he pulled off the towel that was tied around his shoulders, wiped his mouth, closed the gate, and walked towards Fat Monk's house with Ruan Anan.
Fat Monk's home is only a hundred meters away from the Public Security Bureau. It is a small one-story bungalow that looks very solid.
The yard is big and tidy.
Half of the land is planted with vegetables and fruits, and the other half is clean and tidy sandy soil.
The kitchen is located in the courtyard on the west side, with a simple awning under it. Fat Monk is busy in the kitchen at the moment.
The thin man ran to the west fence as if he knew the way there well and said to the fat monk, "Brother, are you done with dinner? We have to go out and work."
"Oh?" Fat Monk replied to Thin Monk without even turning his head, concentrating on pouring the fish soup from the pot into the earthenware jar. "What's going on? Is there any news from Su Qingyue? Do we need to prepare to arrest someone?"
"Well, that's it." The thin monk nodded. "If you haven't finished your work, we'll leave first."
"Wait a moment." Fat Monk used a clean linen cloth to pad the edge of the earthenware jar and carefully carried it into the house.
"Dad, Mom, please take care of my wife and children. I have to go to work."
The thin monk explained to Ruan Anan a little embarrassedly, "Please wait a moment, Comrade Ruan, we are usually very relaxed."
"There's no need to rush." Su Qingyue and Wang Qiang were taking a shower and doing other things, and they were in a lot of trouble.
These two people haven't seen each other for a long time. If they want to rekindle their old relationship, how much time should they spend on ambiguity and tenderness?
What's more, Fat Monk just put down the soup, put on his armband, and walked out with two rolls of hemp rope, "Let's go, one of you is a newly married young wife, and the other is an unmarried young man.
I'm afraid you won't be able to handle something like catching an adulterer, as you'll be too embarrassed to do it. It's better for me and Sister Li and the other older sisters to handle it."
The skinny monk nodded quickly, "Fat brother, actually I haven't even figured out how to rush in. You see, a man and a woman are naked rolling around together, how can I have the nerve to go in?"
"You, you." Fat Monk pointed at Thin Monk helplessly, "You were only assigned to the Nansha Island Security Office. If you were assigned to another place, wouldn't you be ostracized to death?"
"Isn't this my good fortune?" The thin monk smiled flatteringly, "Fat brother, today I'm relying on you!"
Ruan Anan followed the two people as they walked towards Su Qingyue's adobe house, and asked curiously, "The work content of each public security office is different.
But no matter how things change, the core remains the same: discipline and work style must be improved.
But now Nansha Island is obviously going against the outside world. I can't even imagine the market on the dock when I was outside.
Aren't you afraid of being investigated by the higher-ups?"
"Hey!" Fat Monk waved his hand nonchalantly. "We have one advantage here, and that's being isolated from the world."
"Even if the higher-ups come to inspect, they still have to take a train, a bus, or a ferry, right?"
"To make these tools, you need a letter of introduction. By the time they arrived, someone had already tipped them off."
"When the time comes, we can just put on a symbolic performance for two days and try to fool them into leaving, right?"
It’s high, really high.
Is this what it means when there are policies from the top, there are countermeasures from the bottom?
No wonder Zhu Wei sent Qi Sisi to Nansha Island a few years ago. Life on Nansha Island is really comfortable.
However, Qi Sisi was not satisfied. She felt that the island was isolated and backward and she could not buy good things from the sea market. She was always dissatisfied and acted like a spoiled child.
If she had just honestly played the role of a good daughter, even if she found out later that the two children had been swapped, she would still be able to stay in the Qi family because of her good behavior and understanding.
As they were talking, they arrived at the door of Su Qingyue's house.
Li Zhaodi gestured to Ruan Anan and the fat and thin monks to keep quiet, then tiptoed over. "One of them is taking a shower, and the other is cooking. It's quite lively. I guess we'll have to wait a little longer."
The skinny monk couldn't help but frown, "Isn't that house just one room? The kitchen and bed are in the same space."
"Are they taking a shower here and cooking over there?"
Ruan Anan also has the same confusion. Although the diet of the local people in Nansha Island is mostly boiled or steamed, and there are no stir-fried dishes with heavy oil and salt, this is also quite awkward, right?
You're cooking on the stove while I'm taking a bath in the tub next to you?
Tsk.
Li Zhaodi covered her mouth and laughed, "That's right, our Xiaoling just came out and told us the whole story in vivid detail."
"Su Qingyue is really being treated like a princess by Wang Qiang!"
"Not only did he heat the bath water himself, he even took off all the clothes piece by piece."
"He was cooking at the stove, and Su Qingyue was lying in the bathtub watching. It was an eye-opening scene."
"It would be a good thing if the cook was a young man with delicate features."
"But it's Wang Qiang's fat old Deng. He's really not good-looking. Not good-looking at all."
By the end of her story, Li Zhaodi was laughing so hard that she was bent over. There was no anger at the man's betrayal on her face, only mockery of the scene she saw at that time.
Can……
Ruan Anan sighed, walked over and suddenly hugged Li Zhaodi, who was forcing a smile, "Sister Li, you can cry if you're in a bad mood."
“You don’t have to force a smile.”
Li Zhaodi's body stiffened and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.
Ruan Anan's thin little body was warm, which was a warm embrace that Li Zhaodi had not felt for a long time.
In the end, Li Zhaodi let down her guard and cried silently, biting her handkerchief.
She was not angry about her husband's infidelity and betrayal, but was crying out the tears of relief she had finally felt after all these years.
She has been married to Wang Qiang for more than 20 years. Once upon a time, she also thought that the two of them would work together and live a prosperous life.
So, a few years ago, when the "Three Strikes and One Opposition" campaign first began, she still wanted to give Wang Qiang a chance to return to his family.
At that time, Wang Qiang became the team leader, and she worked hard to persuade the surrounding villagers.
Later, she was completely disappointed.
God knows how much determination it took for her to get to this point. This is Nansha Island, a backward border island. Divorce is a huge matter for a woman.
So, she cried.
Ruan Anan gently patted Li Zhaodi's back and said, "Sister Li, your life will be better in the future."
Li Zhaodi wiped away her tears, let go of Ruan Anan in her arms, nodded and said, "Yes, my life will be better in the future."
