Era: Starting from cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi

Chapter 50
  The moon is slightly waning.

Silver threads scattered on the ground.

Light up Sun Xiangyang's way home.

Just now in the brigade, after the old branch secretary proposed, and then everyone voted by a show of hands, Sun Xiangyang was officially appointed as the captain of the third production team of the Shuangshuiwan brigade.

In fact, Sun Xiangyang had some thoughts about the black land before, but he had not yet had time to express his position to the old party secretary.

After all, it would not be possible to cultivate all the land in just one winter.

It was still a long time, so he was not in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, the old branch secretary seemed impatient, arranged everything in advance, and directly paved the way for him.

And the other party's initial statement also made him feel warm in his heart.

But he did not regret pretending to be weak. It was not just a show for the old party secretary, and not everyone was like the old party secretary. He did this to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, for himself and for his family.

Moreover, with this weakness, isn’t there enough food for the winter?
  From now on, having the position of captain of the third production team will mean that he is firmly established in Shuangshui Bay, and many things will undoubtedly be much more convenient.

When I got home, three pairs of eyes looked over at the same time.

"It's so late at night, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Guihua stared at Sun Xiangyang with some suspicion. When he went out, he just said he would go out for a walk, but the tour only lasted two hours.

If she hadn't known her son's character, she would have thought that someone had picked him up.

"Go to the brigade for a meeting."

Sun Xiangyang became a 'cadre' for the first time in his life, and he gained a lot of experience points. He was in a good mood, so he didn't deliberately hide the raised corners of his mouth.

"Going to the brigade for a meeting?"

Zhang Guihua curled her lips. Was her son dizzy from hunger?
  Who do you think you are, going to the brigade for a meeting?
  "Well, we discussed the matter of spreading rumors and the punishment of Granny Qian and others. In the end, your son and I will become a cadre, captain of the Third Shuangshuiwan Production Team."

Sun Xiangyang simply revealed the mystery and planned to let his family share this happy event.

"Where did our third production team from Shuangshuiwan come from without first asking when you are bragging?"

Zhang Guihua said angrily.

"Don't believe it, just because it's not happening now doesn't mean it won't happen in the future."

Sun Xiangyang sat down on the kang, and with a flick of his hand, he suppressed Dudu who was rushing towards him.

"Okay, I know you are very capable, and you will definitely be able to be the captain of the third team in the future, but how will you punish that old godly woman?"

Zhang Guihua didn't take her son's words seriously at all. Instead, she was concerned about other things.

"Work points will be deducted. From now on, I will be responsible for looking after the well and helping to lift the water from the well when the members are fetching water."

"That's it? Wouldn't that be too cheap for her?"

Zhang Guihua was a little dissatisfied when she heard this punishment.

In her opinion, the best punishment is to drive that family away and keep out of sight.

"Taking advantage of her? That's not necessarily the case."

Sun Xiangyang shook his head. Beating someone like Granny Qian was useless, and she was already old. If she died accidentally, her life would be ruined unless she paid for it with her life.

If they were driven away and the other party dragged his family to the commune gate and howled, maybe what happened in Jinjiagou would happen in Shuangshui Bay.

But deducting work points means that the other party will receive less food this year, and starvation is inevitable.

But looking at the well and helping to fetch water would be like tearing her face off.

From now on, if she wants to make a fuss and scold her, she must first urinate and show off.

This move made people who had a grudge against Mrs. Qian become even more angry.

It is precisely because of this that Sun Xiangyang admires Accountant Sun who proposed this punishment.

Those who play with the pen are Yin.

"Where is Song Jianqiang? What did the brigade say?"

This time, it was Chen Shuting's turn to ask questions.

"Report it to the newspaper office, expel his members, and then work hard for a year."

Sun Xiangyang said simply.

"Well, it seems that the team is not biased towards him." Chen Shuting nodded.

Unlike Zhang Guihua who was confused, she knew exactly what this punishment meant to Song Jianqiang.

She has a proud character, but she is also the kind who dares to love and hate.

What Song Jianqiang did undoubtedly violated her bottom line. As for the friendship she had at the educated youth spot, it was long gone, and it was impossible to speak for the other party.

Previously, she was mainly worried that the other party's identity as an educated youth would make the team look bad.

Now it seems that the weight of the man in the old branch secretary's heart is more important than imagined.

"Favouritism?"

Sun Xiangyang sneered in his heart, where are you now?
  The real killer move will be when the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination comes.

But currently, no one in Shuangshui Bay knows about this except him.

When the news comes later, everyone will only think that Song Jianqiang brought it upon himself and deserves what he deserves.

After all, if he hadn't wanted to destroy Sun Xiangyang first, he wouldn't have suffered such retribution.

At night, Sun Xiangyang was leaning on the quilt, looking at the panel, when he saw Chen Shuting coming in with a basin of foot-washing water.

"Dudu, ask daddy to wash your feet together."

After saying that, Chen Shuting turned around and went out, leaving Sun Xiangyang stunned for a while.

Has his salary been improved?

Finally have a bit of a head of the family, a gentleman?
  "Dad, mother said let us wash our feet together."

Dudu rolled over from the side.

"Okay, you wash it first, and I'll wash it after you finish."

Sun Xiangyang rubbed his little head.

After washing her feet and getting on the kang, Chen Shuting came back.

Then it’s time to turn off the lights and go to bed.

However, Sun Xiangyang was lying on the kang, but he didn't feel sleepy.

Everyone said that he wanted to keep warm, but now he was very hungry and had other things on his mind, so he didn't throw Dudu to Zhang Guihua.

In fact, when the two first got married, Dudu always slept with Zhang Guihua, but later on, because the original owner felt that the Feng Shui master had three shortcomings and was frightened, he never consummated the marriage with Chen Shuting.

He even offered to let Dudu sleep here, so that even if Chen Shuting wanted to do something, she would have a shield.

When Sun Xiangyang 'looked through' the memory of the original owner before, he clearly remembered that in the next few days, Chen Shuting kept looking at the original owner strangely.

As for now, Chen Shuting has long been used to it.

Anyway, as long as Sun Xiangyang doesn't want to, she will definitely not force him.

At that moment, Sun Xiangyang looked at the panel and found that his identity column had not changed at all. He was still a villager.

But before in the brigade, everyone clearly passed the vote.

Is it because it has not been announced yet and has not been recommended by all Shuangshuiwan members?
  After all, the captain of this association is ostensibly elected by the members.

But wait until tomorrow, and there will probably be results.

At the same time, his remaining experience column also reached 1019 points.

Finally entered the four-digit era.

It can be seen that tonight in the brigade, the old party secretary took the lead in thanking everyone, and the harvest is so rich.

After all, before he entered the team, he only had 758 points of experience.

The old party secretary alone was given 50 points.

The rest of the people were in their teens or early twenties.

Even captain Sun Enguo exceeded thirty points.

With so much experience lying on the panel, Sun Xiangyang felt ready to make a move.
