1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

"Grandpa, it's a little late now, and there's no time to prepare anything else. There are only some leftovers, but no one has touched their chopsticks." Chen Tiezhu said.

Grandpa Han nodded, "I don't care. Zhenwu, take your comrades to have a good meal. Only when you are full will you have the energy to catch people."

"Grandpa, I don't care about Tiezhu. Xiuying, right?" Han Zhenwu said with a smile.

Han Xiuying curled her lips and stretched out her voice, "What does it have to do with me? I'm just a tenant."

"It must have something to do with you, you are the leader." Chen Tiezhu said carefully.

He has always been so brave, and Comrade Liu Dayou stood aside in a proper manner. He felt that he had no right to sit in this room.

Chen Tiezhu rolled his eyes and whispered to Liu Dayou's ear. Liu Dayou nodded, slipped away, and walked out of the room.

This made Han Xiuying very curious. What evil thoughts did this guy have?

"Well, Brother Zhenwu, do you want to contact Director Hu and notify you to come and help?" Chen Tiezhu said.

"We really have to notify him. We also have to cooperate with the local arrangements." Han Zhenwu nodded after eating a big mouthful of cabbage.

"Okay, leave it to me. I will steam the buns tomorrow morning, and I will send them to you even if I can't come back." Chen Tiezhu said hurriedly, and then picked up the intercom.

"Director Hu, Director Hu, I am Tiezhu, I am Tiezhu, please reply if you hear me, please reply if you hear me. Yingzi, is that right?"

"Oh, you have to let go after you finish talking, you can't keep pressing it." Han Xiuying said unhappily.

"Hey, I've never done this before." Chen Tiezhu said happily.

"Tiezhu, what's going on?" The voice of Director Hu came from the intercom.

"The province has sent elite troops. Yingzi's elder brother has brought his comrades here, and they will be able to participate in the arrest after dinner." Chen Tiezhu said hurriedly.

"Okay, wait for me." Director Hu's answer was very simple.

"Brother Zhenwu, you guys take your time eating. It seems that we haven't found the detailed route of the three people yet." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Why should I be in a hurry? They will definitely not escape." Han Zhenwu said indifferently.

"Grandpa, let me formally introduce myself to you." Chen Tiezhu turned around and came to the old man.

"This matter is indeed my fault, but Yingzi and I confirmed our relationship relatively late, so I didn't have time to tell my family. You can rest assured that in this family, whether it is people or small animals, no matter big or small, Yingzi has the final say."

"Is my granddaughter such a domineering person?" Grandpa Han glanced at him.

"Of course not, it should be said that Yingzi has suffered a lot in my family." Chen Tiezhu said with emotion.

"After all, we are not as good as the city. Even our county is much worse than the provincial capital. Especially with Yingzi's current job, she can't even wear two of her favorite beautiful clothes."

"Why? Is there anyone who cares about this? What do their leaders do? Why do they care so much?" Old Man Han was a little upset.

"Grandpa..."

"Yingzi, let me talk." Chen Tiezhu interrupted Han Xiuying.

"It's not someone else's business, it's Yingzi's family education that's too good. She said that when she goes to work, she has to dress like everyone else. I'll bring her lunch, but she also said that she can't be treated specially."

"You just took over the grassroots work, it's so hard every day. She insisted on riding a rickshaw to various villages. I said we have a jeep, you can drive it."

"She still refused, and still said that she can't be treated specially. Grandpa, please judge, you say that our family has the conditions to eat good food, drive to get off work, etc., so why should we care about other people's business? We are not taking advantage of the public, we even fill the gas ourselves."

"You are right." The old man nodded.

"Xiuying, work is work, but you can't make yourself suffer. Wear whatever you like and drive when you need to. It's so cold now. It's too painful to ride a rickshaw in the wind."

"Grandpa, that's what I mean. You are also to blame for this. Why do you have such strict tutoring at home?" Chen Tiezhu complained.

"And Zhenwen too. Take a closer look. Is he thinner than before? He works day and night in the hospital every day just to improve his medical skills."

"He is a big boy now. It's normal for him to suffer a little if he wants to learn skills well. He should also pay attention to rest at ordinary times and can't be a deserter." Grandpa Han said.

Han Zhenwen rolled his eyes and knew what Chen Tiezhu was thinking.

"GrandpaGrandpa, you don't know. "Chen Tiezhu spoke again.

"Even though Yingzi has just come to work in our town, her solid work attitude has won the favor of the comrades in the town at once."

"Take our town mayor Ma for example. He was reluctant at the beginning and told me directly. What happened later? After the New Year, Yingzi has to be his right-hand man."

"Every job is done very solidly, which is different from others who are superficial. And no matter what job, she can get started quickly. Except for not being good enough for herself, she is very good to others."

"Xiuying, this won't work. Although it is said that you should be lenient to others and strict with yourself, you should also pay attention to a degree." Grandpa Han said distressedly.

"Look, you are thinner than the last time you went home. Is this to save more time? Didn't grandpa give you money? Eat when you should eat."

"Grandpa, don't be fooled by him. "Han Xiuying said with a smile, glaring at Chen Tiezhu.

This guy found Grandpa's "weakness" and turned the matter on himself.

Li Yinglin, who was lying on the kang, secretly gave Chen Tiezhu a thumbs up.

This kid's mouth is really amazing.

"I know this kid is trying to change the subject, but you must have said what he said." Grandpa Han said earnestly.

"As long as the people in our family don't do evil, they can eat whatever they want and drive whatever they want. Why do you care what others say?"

"That's right, let's go our own way and let others talk." Chen Tiezhu helped again.

"By the way, old man, you don't know, the mushroom planting project that Yingzi helped me choose has been successful. Wait until tomorrow, I'll take you to the mushroom shed to see that the little mushroom bag is growing very energetic. ”

“Don’t think that Yingzi has just started these grassroots work. Maybe she can lead the people of our county to get rid of poverty and become rich. Not only is she beautiful and kind, but she also does things in an orderly manner.”

“Hahahaha, of course, she is my granddaughter.” The old man laughed happily, but his face darkened in an instant, “You are bullying my granddaughter because she is kind?”

Chen Tiezhu was frightened. The old man was not so easy to fool.

“Tiezhu, the second master is coming.”

At this time, Liu Dayou’s voice came in.

Chen Tiezhu breathed a sigh of relief. This is also his secret weapon.

The second master walked in with his arm hanging. Just as he was about to speak, he was stunned.

“You are..., the third company commander?”

“Are you Erdanzi?”

The second master and old man Han asked in unison.
