Chapter 35 Kicked Down
Time is like water picked up from the river. It leaks out when the fingers are slightly loosened. It passes quietly and inadvertently, so fast that there is no time to reflect, and sometimes there is no need to reflect.
The ears of wheat in the rice fields have become heavy, and the outside of Xiaonanzhuang Village in the sun is golden. At this time, the peanuts have long been planed, the corn cobs have been broken, and each family has long since leveled the rice field.
, polished the sickle, prepared the flatbed cart, and those with oxen even found a set of equipment for pulling the cart, and were waiting to go to the fields to harvest rice.
The crops looked like a bumper harvest, and Ma Xiaole also had a big harvest.
The annual personnel adjustment in Xiaonanzhuang Village has begun. A large number of people from the two village committees have sat at the village headquarters to make a new round of arrangements for the production team captains and corresponding personnel at the village headquarters. In fact, this adjustment arrangement is just a formality.
That's all, there's nothing the production captains don't want to do, and the counterparts in the village department even put glue on their buttocks and don't want to move at all. They just want to show their mobility, especially at night, and bring some good things with them.
Went to visit the homes of Party Secretary Fan Baofa and Village Chief Lai Shungui.
There are two changes in this year's adjustment. One is that Cao Erkui became the captain of the fifth production team because he gave Fan Baofa a large jade cigarette holder. It is said that this jade cigarette holder was used by an eunuch during the Kangxi period and was worth a lot of money.
Another change is that Ma Xiaole entered the village headquarters and was given the title of deputy captain of the militia. In fact, Lai Shungui and Fan Baofa also told him that they wanted him to engage in service. To put it bluntly, he was just a handyman. But this already made Ma Xiaole very satisfied.
Well, after all, he is also a member of the village department, with a monthly salary of one hundred and eighty yuan.
Even more satisfied was Ma Changgen. He never thought that members of his Ma family could go to the village. As a result, he was so happy that he slaughtered a pig in the pig pen and left two pig hind legs for entertainment.
People from the two village committees took the rest to the street and sold them at very low prices, saying that they would also benefit the villagers and celebrate.
After finishing the pork, Ma Xiaole also officially went to work at the village headquarters, and immediately performed well. He told Fan Baofa that there were so many empty houses in the village headquarters, and he was idle. It was better to take out the house like on TV.
One room should be tidied up and set up as a conference room so that when the leaders from above come, the whole place can be arranged, so as not to sit in the office and feel miserable.
In this way, under Ma Xiaole's management, a decent conference room was tidied up: several shabby but uniformly tall tables were put together in the middle to serve as the countertop. He even went to the countryside to buy a six-meter-long table.
, a big white cloth three meters wide was spread on top, and seven or eight benches were placed around it. It really looked a bit like that. There was a table in the southwest corner of the conference room, with a thermos bottle and a teacup on it.
It was placed on a tray and looked neat and tidy. There was also a table in the northeast corner, with "Red Flag" magazine and some agricultural science and technology books on it.
Not to mention, this conference room really adds a highlight to the Xiaonanzhuang Village Department. When Han Xu, the secretary of Township Chief Feng, came with the township agricultural research team, he praised Fan Baofa and Lai Shungui and said they were very successful.
Fan Baofa and Lai Shungui were very happy, and Ma Xiaole was also happy. His ability was shown. In addition, he was busy carrying tea and water, which somewhat attracted the attention of the township-level leaders in the research team, not to mention how happy he was.
Speaking of happiness, Ma Xiaole paid special attention to the secretary of the township government office named Wu Yihong. She should not be much younger than Liu Shuying, but she dressed very young, especially because she had a strong smell of perfume, which attracted him to always pour water for her. When pouring water, Ma Xiaole saw that Wu Yihong's hands were very white. Although they were not as tender as Jin Duo's hands, they were well-groomed, her nails were full, and they were clean inside. They were not like Zhang Xiuhua's hands. There is always black dust inside.
Wu Yihong also has a good figure, very slender, so slender that she is even a little thin. In addition, she wears high-heeled leather shoes, which makes her walk with a twist and three sways.
Ma Xiaole would always be distracted when looking at Wu Yihong, and various conjectures would always flash in his mind. In short, Wu Yihong's appearance made him very concerned.
What also concerned Ma Xiaole was Jin Duo. During this period, he discovered that Jin Duo had a shiny little women's watch on his wrist. It was very dazzling, especially under the sun, and the reflected light made him unable to open his eyes. Not only that, he also found that Jin Duo also had a pair of gold earrings on his ears, which swayed when he walked, which was really enviable. In addition, Jin Duo also had a gold necklace on his neck, and his clothes were fashionable. The fragrance on his body has also changed. It no longer smells like soap after taking a bath. The fragrance is similar to Wu Yihong's. When he hugged Jin Duo, Jin Duo always said that it was a good perfume and very expensive. .
Ma Xiaole understood where all this came from, but he didn't say it out loud, because he saw Jin Duo showing how much he enjoyed all of this, with his eyes like an old farmer looking at the crops that were about to be harvested. Full of expectation and comfort.
Ma Xiaole was very uneasy about this. He had a bad premonition that Jin Duo was going to fly away. However, this uneasiness was secondary. What was more serious was that he would encounter another hardship because of it.
The hurt of this ordeal should be said to be much more serious than losing Jin Duo.
The ordeal begins when the rice is harvested.
Ma Xiaole, who had not seen Jin Duo for several days, put a lot of thought into the village. Especially when he took over the small book from Fan Baofa with the words "Party Branch of Xiaonanzhuang Village, Shagang Township, Yuning County", he felt that It was particularly sacred. He took out the pen he bought for three yuan and nine cents and wrote the words "Vice Captain Ma Xiaole" on his face very seriously. Then he turned to the first page and wrote another sentence: Study hard and make progress every day. After reading it for a long time, I felt it was not good enough, so I crossed it out again and solemnly wrote: Listen to the Party and follow the Party's path.
Now that he was satisfied, Ma Xiaole raised the notebook to the front, looked at it, and nodded proudly. However, he thought that he was not yet a party member, and felt disappointed for a moment. He was stunned for a while and said to himself: "Well, I want to Join the party first!”
Ma Xiaole went to Fan Baofa's house and said that he wanted to join the party. Fan Baofa was helping his daughter-in-law Zhao Lamei pack tea. Zhao Lamei was wearing a scarf and sleeves and was preparing to go to the fields to cut rice.
Fan Baofa admired Ma Xiaole's request to join the party and said that the young man was good and motivated, but he had to write an application to join the party first and participate in studies. After being approved, there would be an inspection. Ma Xiaole asked how to write the application for party membership, and Fan Baofa After hesitating for a moment, he said there was no rush and he could just find a copy for him to copy when he had time.
Ma Xiaole nodded happily and said yes, he would treat Fan Baofa to a nice drink. Before he finished saying the word "wine", a man came in from outside the door, it was Jin Zhu. When he saw Ma Xiaole, his face grew long, but immediately He smiled sinisterly and said: "Hey, little guy, you have gone to the village headquarters, and you are the deputy captain of the militia, the captain who is responsible for bringing tea and pouring water!"
Fan Baofa felt that Jin Zhu was a bit too much, but he didn't dare to scold him. He just said with a straight face: "Brother Jin Zhu, don't take the joke too far. What's the matter?"
Although Jin Zhu was very arrogant, he knew that Fan Baofa was the parent official of the village and could not offend him. He immediately smiled and took out a red wedding invitation from his arms, "Oh, Party Secretary Fan, I am here for a happy event, my sister.
Jin Duo is getting married, Party Secretary Fan is going to have a wedding banquet when he has time!"
When Ma Xiaole heard this, his mind buzzed and he became confused. His worries turned out to be true! It must be that Jin Duo was gradually captured by money and agreed to marry the lame son of some bullshit director's family.
The incomparable loss and unprecedented panic made Ma Xiaole's face turn white, and he froze on the spot like a clay statue. Fan Baofa and Jin Zhu both saw it.
Fan Baofa had some clues during his daily contact with Ma Xiaole. He knew that Ma Xiaole liked Jin Duo. Jin Zhu knew better and walked up to Ma Xiaole with great authority and said: "Comrade Ma Xiaole, the deputy captain of Xiaonanzhuang village soldiers, how can I say it?"
We are from the village headquarters. If you are happy, let’s go have a wedding banquet together and have a lot of fun?!”
Ma Xiaole felt that Jin Zhu's expression was so abominable, and really wanted to slap him flat, but he was too strong, who dared to slap him?
Jin Zhu, who still refused to give up, his face suddenly darkened, and said to Ma Xiaole: "Young man, don't even urinate and take care of yourself. What is he? He is the son of the director of the County Construction Bureau. Just a little pocket money is enough for you."
I’ve been earning a year with my butt stuck out!”
After Jin Zhu finished speaking, he smiled at Fan Bao again, turned around and left.
Ma Xiaole couldn't hold it in any longer and muttered in a low voice: "The director is a shitty official. No matter how much money he has, he is still a cripple."
These words reached Jin Zhu's ears, and he suddenly pulled back, glared with angry eyes and kicked his foot, causing Ma Xiaole to roll to the ground with a "gulu" sound.
"You're a puppy, even lame people can be very capable. Today I'm going to let you be lame on one leg to see if you are as capable as him!" Jin Zhu said, turning his head and seeing a pole standing beside the wall, a cross-legged pole.
He rushed over, picked up the pole and hit Ma Xiaole on the leg.
When Fan Baofa saw that it was okay, he quickly hugged Jin Zhu and told him not to be excited, saying that Ma Xiaole was still young and ignorant, so there was no need to argue with him.
At this time, Ma Xiaole was kicked so hard that he almost lost his breath and curled up on the ground, holding his stomach. Jin Zhu thought that it would not be good to be violent at the village party secretary's house, so he threw away the carrying pole and said loudly: "For the party secretary's sake, I'll spare you."
, the day you offend me again, I will kill you!"
After Jin Zhu left, Fan Baofa helped Ma Xiaole up and said: "Xiao Le, do you think Jin Zhu is easy to mess with? Just bear with it if you can. If you say more words and get kicked, it's not worth it."
Ma Xiaole said nothing and walked away with his head lowered. The extremely happy and excited mood he had felt since arriving at the village headquarters was gone. Originally, he felt that his status seemed to be much higher after he entered the village headquarters.
If you want to gain the respect of the whole village, at least you won't get any cold looks or supercilious looks. But now, it's just Jin Zhu who knocks him down with just one lift of his foot, and he doesn't even dare to say a word, and he doesn't even dare to say a word.
I dare not let one go.
