Bai Xingbang had been idle since he moved the plane, but he still stayed by it every day. Occasionally, he would go over to help He Bolin clean the cattle shed. This scene was no longer uncommon in Yanjiang Village.
He recalled Jiang Ye's calmness when flying the plane and felt that Jiang Ye was really a good candidate to be a pilot. Jiang Ye's psychological qualities made him a natural for this job.
He was also thinking about how to recruit Jiang Ye back to the Air Force Base.
A group of people in green military uniforms came to Yanjiang Village.
The shock of the plane finally died down in the busy autumn harvest, but unexpectedly, the arrival of a group of people made Yanjiang Village lively again.
Ji Ping looked at Zhu Xiande in front of him with a confused look on his face.
"Fellow countryman, we are here to look for Jiang Ye."
Zhu Xiande doesn't look like a good guy when he smiles. Everyone else is wearing a green military uniform, but he is the only one wearing a black coat and has a slicked-back hair.
Zhu Xiande dressed up after getting off the train, thinking of leaving a good impression on Jiang Ye.
This time, only Zhu's father and son came to Yanjiang Village, and the others were assigned to other places.
Ji Ping looked at Zhu Xiande in silence. Zhu Xiande thought that he was so excited to see the soldiers that he couldn't speak. He had seen at least eighty fellow villagers like him.
"Fellow countryman, we have something important to discuss with Comrade Jiang Ye. Could you please help us find him?"
Ji Ping saw that the two people behind Zhu Xiande were righteous and should not be looking for trouble. After hesitating for a long time, he put away the sickle in his hand and stood in front to lead the way: "Follow me."
Ji Ping no longer had any hope for outsiders, so he led the three people directly to the village committee office.
"Wait at the village committee for a while."
Seeing that Ji Ping wanted to leave, Zhu Youde couldn't help but suspect that Jiang Ye was not very popular in the countryside, otherwise when they said they were looking for Jiang Ye, the fellow villager seemed to be a little cold towards them.
So he asked with some doubt: "My fellow, what is Jiang Ye like?"
When Ji Ping heard this, he became alert immediately. He looked at Zhu Youde. Even though he was wearing a military uniform, it couldn't dispel Ji Ping's vigilance.
"Aren't you here to look for Jiang Ye? Don't you know who he is?"
"Who are you? I knew I couldn't let you see Jiang Ye so easily."
Ji Ping quickly turned on the village committee's loud speaker, and a resounding voice came out from the speaker: "Villagers, quickly gather your weapons! Someone is coming to the village committee to cause trouble for Jiang Ye."
"Come quickly, someone is planning something bad to Jiang Ye."
Zhu Xiande pointed at Ji Ping's nose and said, "Hey, how can you talk like that, old man? We didn't do anything, don't accuse us wrongly."
Zhu Youde didn't know why Ji Ping turned against him so suddenly. He thought that the three of them were very popular, and as long as the fellow villagers saw them, they would know what was going on.
Ji Ping didn't care about the three people's changed expressions and slammed the door of the village committee open.
At this time, the villagers who were nearby had already run over. Most of them were holding shoulder poles and sickles, and some were holding sacks of grain.
"Captain, is someone bothering Teacher Jiang again?"
"Captain, if anyone causes trouble for Jiang Ye, I will fight him!"
"Yes, let's see who is shameless enough to cause trouble for Teacher Jiang. The stick in my hand is not vegetarian."
........
Zhu Xiande was frightened by the villagers who were gradually gathering outside. He carefully hid behind Zhu You. He was not as good at fighting as Zhu Youde who had been trained in the army. His small body was not even strong enough to withstand two hits from Zhu You's carrying pole.
Zhu Youde and his son were also a little surprised.
Zhu Feng was used to being in a higher position, and naturally had a domineering demeanor. He stretched out his hand, intending to signal the villagers to quiet down: "Comrades, be quiet, be quiet, and listen to me."
Unfortunately, Qian Guixiang, who was holding the shoulder pole, didn't want to hear what he said at all: "I don't care what you say, just don't be shameless. You come to our Yanjiang Village every few days and delay our autumn harvest. What's the matter with that?"
Qian Guixiang's words immediately received support from the villagers.
The sky is big, the earth is big, and the grain in the earth is the most important. No one should delay the autumn harvest in their village.
"That's right. Who are you? How dare you delay the autumn harvest in our village?"
"If we can't harvest all the crops this year, will you be responsible?"
Zhu Youde waved his hands and explained, "My fellow villagers, please don't get excited. I am the commander of the Fourteenth Corps. Here are my credentials. You can all check them."
Zhu Youde said as he took out his ID and handed it to Ji Ping who was closest to him.
Ji Ping took a look and found that although all the certificates were stamped with red seals, no one dared to forge them.
Ji Ping read it over and over again before handing the document to Zhu Youde.
At this time, Yao Qiyue and Jiang Ye finally arrived at the village committee.
"Captain, what's wrong?"
Ji Ping saw Jiang Ye coming and protected him and Yao Qiyue behind him: "Do you know these people? They said they wanted to see Jiang Ye for something, but I don't know what it is."
Zhu's father and son looked at each other in bewilderment as they saw that the whole village was protecting Jiang Ye and treating the three of them as a scourge.
Zhu Youde was afraid that his brother Zhu Xiande would say something else that would upset the villagers, so he quickly stepped forward and said, "Hello, Comrade Jiang. I am here on behalf of the organization to hire you to join the research institute."
Zhu Youde's words were not very clear. He did not specify which research institute he would be working in or where he would be assigned to the position. There were many people here and some of the things he said involved confidential information.
Jiang Ye looked calm and was not that surprised by their arrival.
"Hello, this is my wife, Yao Qiyue, and this is Ji Ping, the team leader of Yanjiang Village. The people behind this door are all our friends from the village. Please forgive me for any offense. Comrade, what are your names?"
Zhu Youde extended his hand and shook hands with Jiang Ye: "Hello, Comrade Jiang, I am Zhu Youde, a commander of the 14th Corps of the Southwest Military Region. This is my father Zhu Feng and my younger brother Zhu Xiande."
When he was away from home, Zhu Youde felt that his status was sufficient and there was no need to use his father's official position.
The villagers saw that the atmosphere in the house was fine and knew that the Zhu father and son were not here to cause trouble for Jiang Ye, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
Only Ji Ping looked at Jiang Ye in surprise. Was he going to leave Yanjiang Village?
Ji Ping knew that now was not the time to ask such questions. He called out to the villagers outside: "Since there is nothing else to do, let's go back first."
The young villagers had already understood what Zhu Youde meant. Zhou Xiangdong quietly asked Ji Ping, "Captain, are they here to ask Jiang Ye to return to work? Does that mean Jiang Ye will have to leave Yanjiang Village?"
