Chapter 68

The village director ran outside, and seeing Secretary Zhao standing in the distance, he was a little puzzled not daring to come in.He still went up to meet him and said, "Secretary Zhao, I didn't know you came to Qin's Village, so I made Zhao wait outside. I'm really sorry. Please come inside!"

"Wait, let me ask you, is there someone important in the village? Why is there a car parked in the village commune?"

The village director understood that he didn't dare to come in because of this.The village director began to introduce Li Shuigen's identity and the origin of the car. When Secretary Zhao heard that it was a capitalist's car, he immediately felt relieved. Those who had fought were not afraid of landlords and capitalists, and many of them were defeated by him.

As for Li Shuigen, who is the director of the factory and a family of workers and peasants, he is not at ease here.Secretary Zhao asked again: "Is there a person surnamed Jia here to visit relatives?"

"Yes, the son-in-law of Qin Dachuan in our village, he eats in the commune, do you want to find him? I'll call him out."

The village director didn't know Jia Dongxu's identity, and always thought he was just an ordinary cadre, so he didn't worry about it, otherwise he wouldn't have arranged to sit down.Secretary Zhao said: "Since we are eating, treat us well, and we will go in together." After learning about the situation, Secretary Zhao was full of confidence and put on airs.Steadily walked towards the commune.

As soon as Secretary Zhao came in, everyone in the village got up and knew each other, and the parents and officials came.Secretary Zhao looked at Li Shuigen who was the leader, stepped forward and stretched out his hands, and said in a gentle tone: "Director Jia went back to his hometown to visit his relatives. It was a hard journey, and there were some disappointments and some disappointments."

The people in the village are all dumbfounded, Director Jia?Isn't it Li Shuigen?As soon as Li Shuigen heard it, he knew that Secretary Zhao had identified the wrong person, and hurriedly said: "I am not Director Jia." Pointing to Jia Dongxu who was sitting down, he said: "That is Director Jia."

Seeing that Director Jia was arranged to sit down, Secretary Zhao's face changed, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he walked up to Jia Dongxu and said, "I'm really sorry, I didn't know Director Jia. It was a mistake in our village work. Sorry."

Jia Dongxu saw that everyone in the audience was looking at him, and he was dumbfounded because he couldn't eat this meal. He really didn't want to pretend to be a slap in the face. "Who are you?"

The village director stepped forward and said, "This is Secretary Zhao from our village."When the village director heard that Secretary Zhao called Director Jia, his heart pounded. He must have offended a big shot. Seeing Secretary Zhao's attitude towards Qin Dachuan's son-in-law, he felt a little cold.

"Hello, Secretary Zhao! Do you think we should go to my father-in-law's house to chat?" With so many people watching, it is no longer appropriate to be in the village commune, "Then let's go!"

When Secretary Zhao and Jia Dongxu and their party left, the village commune roared, and everyone began to talk about it, and Li Shuigen's face sank like water.He was ashamed just now, and Secretary Zhao ignored him, so he left with Jia Dongxu.

Although there were many discussions and such a good meal was rare, most people still stayed at the table to eat.It would be even more embarrassing for Li Shuigen to leave without shaking his hands, so he still laughed and toasted with the folks for dinner.On the other side, Secretary Zhao followed Jia Dongxu to Qin Huairu's house. Jia Dongxu motioned for Qin Huairu to call all relatives away, and Secretary Zhao asked the village director and the others to go back. Jia Dongxu and Secretary Zhao were left by the stove.

Jia Dongxu said: "Secretary Zhao, how did you know that I went back to the village?"

Secretary Zhao explained to him: "It is my nephew who knows you. He works in the state-owned store in Beijing. You went to him to check the work, so he knows you."

Jia Dongxu smiled wryly and said what a coincidence. "Then what do you want from me?"

Secretary Zhao said: "Director Jia, there are some unplanned materials in the township. I want to ask Director Jia to help sell these materials. The township's finances are really difficult."

"Secretary Zhao, it is our duty to help the people. Don't worry, I will arrange for someone to come and connect with you when you go to work after the Chinese New Year."

"That's really a big thank you to Director Jia!"

Jia Dongxu said: "The matter must be settled for you, then Secretary Zhao should go back, otherwise my relative will not be able to leave."

"Okay, I'll wait for the news."Jia Dongxu sent Secretary Zhao to the door, but Secretary Zhao refused to let him send it, so Jia Dongxu had no choice but to give up.

After coming out of the village commune, Secretary Zhao still held back his anger. He had to wait until Jia Dongxu was not around.Secretary Zhao brought the village director to the village commune and yelled: "You arrange the dignified state cadres to eat at the next seat, but the capitalists become your guests. Do you want to turn the world upside down?"

This frightened the village director. If the hat was taken off, he would have to go to jail.He explained: "Li Shuigen was born in poverty, a descendant of a first-class combat hero, and is still working class."

"The working class marries a capitalist lady. Is he being wooed and corrupted by the capitalist? Does he still have a class stand? He is discrediting the fighting heroes."The village director was sweating profusely, even in the cold winter.Secretary Zhao scolded loudly, and everyone in the village and Li Shuigen heard it, and Lou Xiaoe was even more frightened and trembled.

When it comes to political attitudes, no one dares to eat anymore, and everyone leaves the table and walks away.Secretary Zhao finally dropped a sentence and left, saying: "Your village team will conduct self-criticism first, and the village will deal with it later."

As soon as Secretary Zhao left, the village director also began to scold his mother, saying that Li Shuigen wanted to win him over and corrupt him, and he didn't want to eat and drink with capitalists.Li Shuigen knew he couldn't stay any longer, so he drove away in a desperate manner.This also made him aware of the identity crisis of the Lou family, which is considered by ordinary people to be an exploiting class.

The Qin Dachuan family could now see clearly that Jia Dongxu's status as a cadre is unusual. Director Jia, I don't know what the situation is. Judging from Secretary Zhao's posture, Jia Dongxu is not a small official.

All of a sudden, no one Jia Dongxu spoke, everyone was discussing in private.The three brothers of the Qin family showed their faces in the village, and everyone in the village knew that his uncle was a high official.No wonder my uncle is not angry, he just wants to see the face of the capitalist.

There was no end to the discussion, Jia Dongxu called out: "Can you still cook? I didn't move my chopsticks just now."

Qin Huairu's face was full of joy, and she said coquettishly: "I just know how to eat! Now I'll make it for you."The scene just now made Qin Huairu earn a lot of face in her natal family, so she asked her, how big is your man?Why even the village secretary is polite to him, and your man looks so majestic.

Qin Huairu was with Jia Dongxu every day, so she didn't feel his majesty. Qin Huairu only knew that he was the director. She couldn't tell how big an official he was.

The sister-in-law's capital has been even bigger, and the sister-in-law is talking about Qin Huairu's mother while lighting the fire, "Xiaobao is your grandson, you have to talk to Huairu, and take Xiaobao to the city, you see Jingru is the only one!" It has changed in the past six months. If your grandson doesn’t go, others will take advantage of him.”

"I know this, but what should I say? I'll let your dad talk about it later."As a woman, she dare not speak nonsense and let the men make up their minds.Of course the sister-in-law knew that she was just giving her mother a chance to chat with her sister-in-law, and her sister-in-law dared not show face.
