Ji Ping cares most about the cows in the village. Now even if the king or the emperor comes, he should not cause trouble in the cowshed.
He sat in the commune office with a sullen face, and a young man with a red armband attentively poured him a cup of hot water.
Ji Ping didn't even look at it.
Jiang Ye and Yao Qiyue sat on Ji Ping's left, not daring to breathe.
The commune leader saw the young men and rubbed his hair in pain. The man who came to deal with Yanjiang Village this time was a young man in his twenties.
He and Ji Ping are old acquaintances, his name is Ji Shaowei. To be honest, he has to call Ji Ping "Fourth Uncle".
"Comrade, you see, these guys were just doing their job impartially, but they were just young and hot-headed and acted a bit impulsively."
"Comrade, can we give them a chance and let this matter go?"
“Pah.”
When Ji Ping heard this, he stood up from his chair and pointed at Ji Shaowei's neck and shouted, "Impossible! The cows in our village are all dead now. It's impossible for you to make a big deal out of a small one."
"Let me tell you, it's spring planting time now. Do you know how important these cows are? If our village fails to complete this year's task, you will be held responsible."
Ji Shaowei sighed deeply at Hong, the leader of the guards: "Comrade, I know you were sent by the organization to escort bad elements to Yanjiang Village."
"But you can't beat people in the village either."
Ji Shaowei pointed at Jiang Ye, who was beaten black and blue. "Look, they are both educated youth who went to the countryside. I heard that this young man is even a college student."
"Look at what has happened to this person."
When Yao Qiyue heard that Ji Shaowei was speaking for a few people, her face immediately turned pitiful, with tears in her eyes.
Anyone who saw it could see that Yao Qiyue and his wife had suffered a great injustice. When the head of the commune pushed the door open, the first person he saw was Hong, and the guards all looked at Yao Qiyue with dissatisfaction.
Yao Qiyue and Jiang Ye looked so pitiful that they dared not resist.
"What are you doing?"
"How can you be so lawless? You're still not behaving yourself even after coming here. I think you don't want to do this anymore."
Ji Ping stood up and sighed deeply: "Leader, it's not that our village is unwilling to cooperate with the organization's work. If the organization sends people like this to our Yanjiang Village again, then those who are being transferred down should not be sent to our village."
"Our cows are more valuable than these people."
Someone was dissatisfied with Ji Ping's statement and stood up and shouted angrily: "Old man, I gave you face, but how can you say that? Are you saying that we brothers are not as important as a few beasts?"
Ji Ping said with an unhappy look on his face, "How can this be compared? Don't you know what you are like?"
"Don't think that just because you were the village hooligans and thugs, and you're wearing a red armband, you're a leader."
"It's ridiculous that they are comparing themselves to the cows in our village."
Ji Ping was not afraid at all and scolded the young men harshly in front of the commune leaders.
Ji Shaowei was worried for his uncle: "Leader, what Captain Ji said is not entirely wrong. This cow is the most precious property of farmers. We can't let people bully it at will. We can understand that, right?"
The commune leader glanced at Ji Shaowei and said, "If you have nothing to do, read more books and the newspaper. Is that how bullying words are used?"
Ji Shaowei scratched his hair awkwardly and chuckled foolishly.
"Okay, Captain Ji, do you think this will work? The cows in your village are indeed frightened. This may affect the sowing speed of your village and even the harvest of crops."
"I'll arrange for the commune's tractor to help you for a day, okay?"
When Ji Ping heard the word "tractor," his eyes lit up and his expression softened. He held up three fingers and said, "Three days."
The commune leader smiled and shook his head: "No, that won't work. Let's put it this way, two days at most."
The young people who caused the trouble were asked to apologize, be dismissed from their jobs, and compensate Jiang Ye for his medical expenses.
Ji Ping was afraid that if these young people lost their jobs, they would become hooligans like before and start causing trouble in the village again. So he pleaded, "Just fire them. It's not that serious. Just write a letter of apology to our village and that's it."
In the end, these young people were kept.
In the thatched hut, Chen Qingyun was walking back and forth in the yard, and Xiaobao was following behind him like a little tail, taking short steps.
"Grandpa, don't worry, my parents are very capable."
"They'll be fine."
Chen Qingyun paused when he heard Xiaobao talking, and held Xiaobao in his arms curiously: "Grandpa is not anxious, he is just worried. He is worried that your parents will get into trouble."
The old man and the young man were just talking when Yao Qiyue came back supporting Jiang Ye.
This scared both people in the yard.
"What happened? Why is he injured so badly?"
Yao Qiyue helped Jiang Ye sit down inside the house: "Grandpa, it's okay, it's just a superficial wound."
Chen Qingyun didn't know that his old leader had come to Yanjiang Village, and he was looking for safflower oil all over the house.
Jiang Ye's face was covered with bruises, looking very scary.
Damao took Xiaowu to collect firewood, while Jiangmei was cutting weeds. The grass in Northeast China was not tall in May, so it often took Jiangmei some time to collect a basket full of weeds.
Only Chen Qingyun was at home looking after Xiaobao. When Jiang Ye was being beaten in the cowshed, the old man and the young boy happened to go to the village to find a skilled carpenter to customize a bathtub.
"You're injured like this, and you're okay?"
"Your grandfather is old, but he still has some good sense. The injuries are obvious from being beaten. Did you two get into trouble today?"
Chen Qingyun looked at Yao Qiyue with suspicion. He now had some idea of her ability to cause trouble.
Yao Qiyue sighed, and seeing Chen Qingyun looking at her with suspicion, she couldn't help but said, "Grandpa, why do you keep looking at me when you ask about getting into trouble?"
"Don't I usually behave well?"
Chen Qingyun smiled without saying anything, and Yao Qiyue could only shut her mouth awkwardly.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention the matter of the cowshed, but Du Yun saw Yao Qiyue and the others coming back and came over worriedly.
Seeing the injuries on Jiang Ye's face, she frowned.
"Is the wound on your face okay? Have you been to the clinic?"
"Your master said that it would be too conspicuous for him to come with me during the day, so he will come to see you at night."
