Strict Wife of the ’70s Manages the Household

Chapter 141: Learn English & share room

Besides, Lin Lan hung up the phone, went to the supply and marketing agency, and went to the slaughtering team to buy some meat. It happened that the son of the Tang family was there. He left a pig lung and a pig kidney for his father for the pig killed in the morning. When he saw Lin Lan coming to buy the meat, he sold it all to her.

Lin Lan carried a pound and a half of pork and some pigs into the water, and rode home.

When she got home, Xiaowang had come back first, and was cleaning the pot.

The farmhouse has a large stove and a high pot stand. He stepped on a small bench and almost fell into the pot.

While cleaning the pot, he hummed: "My father and mother are not in charge of me, feed the chickens, dogs, ducks, eggplants, beans, and cucumbers, wash, scrub, scrub, scrub, brush, and today it's my turn to be in charge..."

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Old son, what are you singing about?"

Xiaowang heard her mother's voice, turned her head and smiled at her: "Mother, you're back."

Lin Lan raised the meat: "I'll make something delicious for you tonight."

With a wow, the little baby jumped off the bench and quickly took the basin to pick up the meat.

"You can go play, mother will cook." Lin Lan wanted to cook off all the meat, but now it's hot, she can't keep it. She cuts off the fattest meat, and can dry the lard. She even puts the lard and the meat residue in the bottle at the moment, and keeps the steamed buns or dumplings. The stewed dishes are extra fragrant when scooped.

Half fat and half thin, she just wanted to make vermicelli braised pork, which is a traditional local dish, but now pork is not easy to come by, and it is hard to eat it, so few people make it.

Pig lungs can be fried in a spicy dish, and then make a tomato pig lung soup, so that Xiaowang can eat without spicy food.

For pork kidney, stir-fry kidney flower with green onion.

Xiaowang washed his hands and brought his flute over, "Mother, I'll play a tune for you."

Standing in front of Lin Lan, he first made a gesture and turned the flute in his hand. As soon as Xiaowang gets the musical instrument, he immediately has a unique temperament blessing, with a romantic freehand style unique to art.

"I played to my mother a "Gusu Xing" that I practiced on the sheet music." He started to play.

Lin Lan was stunned, my old son, you can do it.

When they went to the provincial capital, she took out several music scores for her son, including some traditional pieces, including flute and guzheng. She didn't expect Xiaowang to be able to learn by himself.

Lin Lan listened to the elegant tunes and dealt with the flamboyant pork, and felt like she was carrying a fairy spirit.

At the end of the song, Lin Lan also took care of the pig lungs and kidneys, and set them aside to marinate.

She washed her hands, "Go to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables."

Xiaowang immediately went to carry the small basket, holding Lin Lan's hand, and the mother and son went to the vegetable garden together.

He was humming a little tune.

After cleaning up the vegetable garden, the mother and son go home to cook, and first cook the vermicelli braised pork in a pot. At this time, everyone has less oil and water in their stomachs, so put the meat in the pot and fry it to get the fat out, then add soy sauce and a spoonful of farmhouse sauce, add water, onion and ginger, etc., and then add the vermicelli and salt. , the pancake, and then simmered on a small fire.

At this time, Dawang, Erwang and Maisui also came back together.

Dawang rode a bicycle with wheat ears, Erwang rode a black tiger, and went home much earlier than before.

As soon as he entered the yard, Mai Sui shouted, "Hello, mother."

Lin Lan: "...Oh, my daughter is learning English."

Mai Sui laughed, "Mother, I learned from our school's English teacher. I want to buy an English dictionary."

Lin Lan was very happy: "Buy, let your father buy it for you from the county seat in the past few days."

They usually start to learn English in the second year of junior high school, but the teachers are limited, and the students do not like to learn, or they just wait until high school to learn a little bit.

Xiaowang sounded very funny, and he asked Mai Sui to say a few more words.

Mai Sui: "It's awkward for me to say it alone. Second brother and I have both learned a few sentences."

The two of them replayed the set of ha, non-toxic, poisonous, etc. that they met for the first time, which shocked Xiao Wang.

"Sister, I want to learn too, you teach me."

Lin Lan secretly thought about me too, I will teach you, I haven't forgotten yet. It's a pity that no one asked her opinion, and she didn't want to jump out and say I would.

Finally, Lin Lan took the initiative to say, "Daughter, then I'll learn from you too."

Of course Mai Sui welcomes: "Okay, mother, wait. I heard the teacher say that English is actually very simple, just 26 English letters, which are similar to our pinyin. After you have learned the letters, you can learn the pronunciation and phonetic symbols. If you have a dictionary, you can do it yourself. learn."

Erwang: "Mother, it's really simple. We learned the alphabet and a few phonetic symbols in one day, and we also learned a few commonly used words."

Xiao Wang was very excited: "What is the sky?"

Erwang: "Fla love."

Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, son, which teacher did you learn from? Should I change the teacher

Mai Sui remembered, "Second brother, brother Shen Yu can also speak English. I think he must be better than our teacher."

Erwang was also very interested: "Let's ask after dinner."

Xiaowang was still excited, "and me. What should I say?"

Erwang told him that Xiaowang began to learn these words over and over again, and the yard was lively and lively for a while.

Lin Lan leaned over to Dawang and whispered, "Brother, English is fun, we have to learn it too, right?"

Dawang: ... how come there is something about me!

He wanted to say: I don't want to learn English, it is bird language, so difficult to learn. But looking at Lin Lan's smiling and crooked eyes, he couldn't say a word of refusal. He felt more and more strange, why he couldn't say no to his mother.

He quickly made an excuse and put his dagger in his pocket, "I'm going to pour the vegetables."

He walked so fast that he didn't even give Lin Lan a chance to stop him.

Mai Sui took the initiative to replace Xiao Wang to set the fire.

Lin Lan: "Daughter, don't start the fire, go and help me knit a sweater." I'm waiting to send the sweater.

Mai Sui: "Okay."

Erwang went to help eldest brother water the vegetable garden, Xiaowang continued to set fire to Lin Lan, first made the pork lung and tomato soup, then washed the pot, then fried the slices of spicy, shallot and lung, and finally stir-fried the kidney flower in the same way.

The house was filled with the rich aroma of braised pork with vermicelli, as well as the special meat aroma of stir-fried pork lungs with spicy peppers, and stir-fried kidneys with peppers and chives.

When the aroma wafted out of Sanli, Han Qingsong went home.

When they heard Han Qingsong go home, Dawang and Erwang ran over immediately. They were really jealous of that motorcycle. When Dawang went to the army, he already knew that it was a serious Hongdu Changjiang 750, and it is still 80% new.

Han Qingsong stopped the car, put his long legs on the ground, and beckoned the brothers to move forward. He used the most concise language to explain the operating rules, how to start, shift, reverse, decelerate, brake and so on. After he finished speaking, he stepped out of the car with his long legs and handed the motorcycle to the Dawang brothers.

This kind of side motorcycle is not so easy to ride. It looks like a normal motorcycle with a body on one side and wheels on the bottom. If the technology is not at home, the motorcycle is prone to rollover.

One of the brothers is calm and self-controlled, and the other is gentle, neither of which is fussy, and Han Qingsong is not worried about just handing it over to them.

Lin Lan came out to pick him up. Seeing that the two brothers were about to learn to drive a motorcycle, she shouted: "Be careful, don't be too fast!" After hearing the two children respond, she shouted again: "If it's dangerous, jump out of the car! Don't feel bad! vehicle!"

Dawang has already mounted, Erwang is also sitting in the bucket, Dawang pedals and starts, the engine makes a roaring sound, and it rushes forward like a beast of dust.

Lin Lan muttered to Han Qingsong, "Why does the second brother trust the elder brother so much, and he sat up before he learned it."

Seeing the worried look on her face, Han Qingsong hugged her waist and went home, "I'm hungry."

Lin Lan immediately said, "I'll cook something delicious for you."

Han Qingsong: "What?" He smelled a little mixed and couldn't tell the difference for a while.

Lin Lan's eyes curled, "Director Han has worked hard for the past two days, so I will make it up for you."

After Han Qingsong washed his hands and face, went into the room and changed into his home clothes, he saw the stir-fried waist flower on the table, he couldn't help but look at Lin Lan, no matter how he looked at it, there was no deep meaning in his eyes.

Lin Lan: ... I didn't, I really didn't mean it.

Xiao Wang glanced at it, "Mother, this big kidney tastes weird."

He asked Lin Lan where his waist was, Lin Lan pointed to his waist, "It's a pig's kidney."

Mai Sui, who was knitting a sweater, smiled and said, "Where to eat and where to make up."

Xiao Wang snorted and immediately waved his hand, "Then I won't eat it, don't make up such a big waist for me, it's ugly." He could see when the mother just took it out, it's a big one, bigger than his hand.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "It won't be so exaggerated. We eat so many pigs' heads and feet, and they don't grow."

When the food was ready, Dawang and Erwang hadn't come back yet, so Lin Lan was not in a hurry to call them, so he let Han Qingsong and Xiaowang eat first.

Xiaowang ran out and called his brothers.

After a while, the three brothers came back, Lin Lan smiled and said, "There's no need to jump out of the car."

Da Wang raised his eyebrows with a little pride.

Lin Lan: Oh, I learned well.

Erwang smiled and said, "Mother, my eldest brother is amazing, he will do it as soon as he goes up."

Lin Lan told them to put safety first at all times, "Don't be careless, it's different from riding a bicycle. If there is an accident with these motorcycles and cars, it will be a major accident."

Erwang nodded: "Mother, let's remember."

Lin Lan asked everyone to sit down for dinner.

Han Qingsong took a piece of stir-fried waist flower and put it in his mouth.

Lin Lan poured him a small glass of sorghum wine, and then motioned for everyone to listen to her, "I have good news to announce."

She kept holding it, and only said it when the family came back for dinner.

Everyone looked at her.

Lin Lan was already smiling happily, "Little third brother has good news again."

The children asked what was good.

Xiaowang: "Mother, is my little third brother looking for a daughter-in-law?"

Lin Lan: ... My youngest son seems to have the intention of starting a family first and then starting a career.

Dawang, Maisui and Erwang were unexpected. They thought that maybe Sanwang participated in the competition in the provincial capital and won the first place.

Lin Lan said proudly, "The third brother has been selected to participate in the Asian Games in Iran."

Mai Sui and Er Wang understood this relatively well, their eyes lit up with excitement, and looked at Lin Lan: "Mother, really?!"

Mai Sui said excitedly: "Ah, the Asian Games, we are going abroad! Sanwang is great!"

Erwang nodded and was very excited, "In addition to the Asian Games, there are also the Olympic Games and the World Swimming Championships, the third brother can go there in the future!"

Since Sanwang joined the swimming team, Lin Lan has collected many outdated sports newspapers and magazines, and has also cut out some news about Sanwang and pasted them. Mai Sui and Er Wang both like to flip through it.

Dawang doesn't know much about this, so he swims when he swims, saying that there are two waves. And what is the Asian Games? He knows rhymes, but he doesn't know the Asian Games, and of course he doesn't ask.

Although he doesn't understand, he is calm, and others don't know that he doesn't understand.

Xiaowang is a curious baby, so he asked, "Mother, why do you want to go for one wave? Are there still two waves and three waves? And what is the Asian Games?"

Lin Lan: …

Mai Sui smiled and said: "Little brother, Iran is a country, just like we are China. Apart from us, there are many other countries, such as South Korea, Japan, and North Korea. These are all from Asia. The games are called the Asian Games..."

Xiaowang: "Is that wave good or bad? Is it as bad as the Japanese devils?" Recently, the primary school teacher told the children a lot of stories of the Anti-Japanese War. The Japanese devils are the most hated by the children.

Erwang: "One wave is good... Well, the radio publicity has established diplomatic relations, and it will help us participate in the Asian Games."

At this time, international relations were tense, but there was very little domestic propaganda. The most common people knew was the anti-revisionist and American imperialists who had the most propaganda.

"Then the Japanese devils are going too?" Xiao Wang asked.

After listening to the second brother's affirmative answer, Xiaowang stood up and held up a chopstick to make a pudding, "Little third brother, come on! Go and defeat the bad guys from the Japanese little devils!"

He took the powder skin and put it in his mouth. The skin was slippery and not easy to hold, and it slid down and removed it in the bowl.

Everyone laughed.

Xiao Wang frowned slightly, but he didn't hold it up a few times. After hesitating for a while, he reached out and grabbed the powder skin and stuffed it into his mouth, "... This enemy is too cunning, let's kill it quickly!"

"Hahaha," Mai Sui said with a smile, "you and your third brother are two brothers."

The noodle skin that was full of gravy was glowing with oily sauce, Xiaowang sucked it into his mouth and narrowed his eyes with satisfaction, "It's really fragrant!"

Lin Lan also smiled: "Let's eat quickly. The little three elder brother intentionally told me to buy meat to celebrate his trip to the capital, so he should eat more. There's no need to stay."

The most fragrant of the noodle braised pork is the noodle, tomato pig lung soup, slightly sour to quench thirst and relieve the heat, and spicy fried lung slices, which are particularly satisfying to eat.

After a meal, I ate a round belly.

Xiaowang held his stomach, "Mother, I also ate the third brother's share."

Lin Lan smiled and touched, "Oh, this watermelon is ripe."

Xiaowang: "I'm going to find the tortoise."

Although he is already old, Lin Lan still has the feeling that he needs protection the least, and is reluctant to let him go out to play at night.

Dawang: "Let's go."

When Xiao Wang saw his big brother with him, he was so happy that he immediately took Da Wang's hand.

Mai Sui wanted to help Lin Lan knit a sweater for San Wang at home, but Er Wang didn't go, and practiced the newly learned English with Mai Sui at home, and then read the newspaper to everyone.

Xiaowang and Dawang strolled around and came back when they felt that their stomachs were not full. Mai Sui and Erwang were reading the newspaper clippings made by Lin Lan to read the game reports of Sanwang, and Xiaowang went over to study. Dawang took his dagger and made gestures in the yard.

Lin Lan has been knitting sweaters, and with the help of wheat ears, the knitting is very fast, and it is expected to be completed at night.

Han Qingsong sat behind her and leaned against the wall, rubbing her big hands under her lower back. After drinking, his black eyes were extraordinarily bright, but also a little softer, and he didn't look so serious and indifferent.

Lin Lan was so tickled by him that she couldn't knit a sweater properly anymore. She glanced at him and told him not to make trouble, "I have to send it out tomorrow."

Han Qingsong took his hands back obediently, resting his elbows on his knees and his head on his hands, squinting slightly at her.

Lin Lan: "Go to sleep." She thought that he must not have a rest in the county revolutionary committee these two days.

Han Qingsong gave her a deep look, then obediently went to take a bath, and then went back to the west room to put mosquito nets to sleep.

Lin Lan wove for a while, looked at nine o'clock, and asked the children to go to bed earlier.

Gotta get up early in the morning.

After the children fell asleep, Lin Lan went to the main room to weave for a while. Although the light was dim, it wouldn't hurt the eyes after the hands were familiar.

Before eleven o'clock, she had already knitted, and she was very satisfied when she stood up and looked at it. Sanwang has a slender neck, and she knits a high collar, not the usual sweetheart collar.

The final neckline and cuffs took a little time because we used light-colored wool to weave a pattern.

She packed up and went to take a shower, and then came back to the kang and crept up for fear of waking Han Qingsong up.

As a result, as soon as he entered the mosquito net, he was taken into his arms and rolled over under him.

Lin Lan whispered, "Aren't you tired?"

"Not tired."

"Go to sleep, you must have had a good rest last night."

"That's not for nothing..."

"No, no!" Lin Lan quickly interrupted him.

When she went to buy meat, of course, she bought any meat that didn't require a ticket. If there are pig heads, pig hearts, and pig livers, she will never deliberately ask for a big kidney, right

He directly used his actions to prove that he was not tired, and indirectly told her that having a big waist was useful and that he really missed her.

So she went to bed in the second half of the night, and didn't get up the next day without any accident.

After solving the big problem of Qingshi Commune, others will naturally follow up on the actual operation, so Han Qingsong will not join in the fun. He neither wanted to see the despair and turbulence of the members before the problem was solved, nor did he want to face the gratitude and tears after the solution.

What he does is what he wants to do, no one is persecuting and no one needs to be grateful.

So he gave himself a holiday to stay at home with his daughter-in-law.

The children exercised, cooked, had meals, and went to school in the morning. After they left, he and Lin Lan were left at home.

He closed the door and rested the chicken coop and duck pen in the yard. The curtains made of wooden sticks and corn stalks were easily damaged in the wind, sun and rain, and needed to be repaired from time to time.

nine thirty.

Lin Lan woke up suddenly, quickly got up and looked at the watch, and said anxiously, "I want to send a sweater!"

Han Qingsong entered the room, "The correspondent has left."

Lin Lan was surprised that he didn't go to work, and immediately said playfully, "It's okay, we'll deliver it to the county and buy a dictionary along the way. Who asked us to have a special car!"

Han Qingsong didn't mean to help her, just looked at her.

Lin Lan knew what he meant, she straightened her body and leaned over to kiss him. After a kiss, he still had no intention of moving as he embraced her waist.

Lin Lan squinted at him, don't take an inch.

He whispered.

Lin Lan's face turned red all of a sudden, and she beat him, "You're not serious!" She quickly dressed, "I originally wanted to cook for Brother Xiao Wang at noon, but now I can only ask him to continue with the teacher. ."

When she went to look for the sweater, the sweater was gone.

Lin Lan: "Third brother, there's a robbery, my sweater is gone!"

Han Qingsong said there was nothing he could do, and there were no thieves at home.

Lin Lan jumped on top of him, and Han Qingsong immediately supported her.

Lin Lan pinched his cheek, "Be honest, where did you hide my sweater."

Han Qingsong:…

He turned around and pushed her against the wall, so scared that Lin Lan quickly pushed him, seeing her face changed, the corners of his lips curved, put her down and stopped teasing her.

"It's been sent." He knew what time the correspondent departed and passed by, so he would just wait with his sweater and address.

"Third brother, you are so kind!" Lin Lan tiptoed and kissed his Adam's apple.

Seeing that Han Qingsong was going to arrest her, she quickly ran away, "You can cook for Brother Xiao Wang at noon."

Three days later, Chu Yunfeng called her commune, and Lin Lan was not in the countryside. He left a message saying that he had received the sweater and would take it to the capital to give it to Sanwang, and said that he would take good care of Sanwang so that she would not have to worry.

A few days later, Lin Lan received a call from Coach Bian. Sanwang was very motivated in training and everything was normal. Because of the intense daily training, in order not to distract the child and not to contact him for the time being, he would ask Sanwang to call the commune before departure, and Lin Lan expressed his understanding.

The ration distribution work of Qingshi Commune is coming to an end. Although the staff are very tired, they also feel very fulfilled. They can hand over the food to the commune members from their own hands, and they are watching with such tearful and grateful eyes, so that their souls are filled with tears. experienced a sublimation.

The fame of Han Qingsong and Lin Lan also spread in the Qingshi Commune. They all said that with Director Han, bad people would not dare to do evil, and Director Han would support the members.

But Han Qingsong didn't put a Han Qingtian's shell on himself as people thought. He was still like me. He went to get off work and went to the countryside to inspect. What should he do? He didn't go to Qingshi Commune to gain the gratitude and admiration of the people. It was as if it had nothing to do with him.

On the contrary, Deputy Director Yang always wanted to pick up ready-made ones, and wanted to leave Han Qingsong's sight to be his secretary and director. He was really fed up with this deputy!

This made Sun Zhuowen anxious, "Ju Han, why don't you strike while the iron is hot."

Only to help the members of the Qingshi Commune solve such a big problem, hurry up and warm up, there will also be public support at that time, and it will also be of great benefit to run for the director in the future.

Han Qingsong glanced at him, "Forging iron?"

Sun Zhuowen thought he was too obscure, and Han Qingsong didn't understand, so he wanted to be more straightforward.

Han Qingsong: "Qingshi Commune has its own cadres."

Of course, he understood what Sun Zhuowen meant. To say that he didn't understand some things when he first came here, he has learned it after studying for a few years. It's just that he doesn't like to talk, and it's not that he doesn't like to use his brain. He sees, observes and thinks more, and he has learned a lot of things he doesn't know.

As for Yang Shigao, he didn't care.

Sun Zhuowen knew that he really didn't mean that, so he couldn't help but regret it. Soldiers are soldiers. They're just rough. It's possible to be a general, but not in politics. After all, it's not politics.

Han Qingsong did not immediately go to Xiaojia Village. There was another problem. Regarding Wang Guoan, he sent people to stay there to assist with the work. One of the purposes was to monitor this Wang Guoan to see who he was. Similar to Lin Lan's intuition, he also has a feeling that he belongs to himself. When a person appears in front of him, he will have a first impression. Based on his behavior and other people's descriptions, he will have an in-depth judgment. make deeper judgments.

That's how he works.

When the Public Security Bureau handles cases, it is often based on people.

The reason why he was able to quickly catch the murderer of the livestock, the brothers of the Wang family who robbed the grain, and the anti-Japanese who hid the grain was based on his own method, and he helped him solve the case more and more quickly, accurately and sharply.

At this time, Lin Lan came to him and didn't come in. Instead, he knocked on the window and asked him, "Ju Han, are you busy this afternoon?"

Han Qingsong threw away the documents at hand and got up, "It's okay."

Lin Lan: "Let's go, invite you to dinner."

Han Qingsong: "..."

Sun Zhuowen listened and pretended not to hear, it was really sour to see this couple.

Lin Lan: "No one has ever invited you to dinner. I'll invite you to eat so you can experience the feeling of being invited to dinner."

Han Qingsong glanced at the cafeteria: "What to eat?"

Lin Lan tilted his chin towards him, "Go to the county to eat."

Han Qingsong:…

He went back to get the key, checked if there was enough diesel in it, and then carried her into the car.

Lin Lan grabbed the key, "I'll be your driver."

Han Qingsong: "Do you dare to jump out of the car?"

Lin Lan: "...I, what kind of bike do I jump in? If you teach me, I'll be able to ride it. Can it be more difficult to ride than a bicycle? I don't believe it anymore."

Han Qingsong taught her hand by hand.

Lin Lan thought it was trivial. It's just a motorcycle, it's just pedal start, manual fueling, manual gear shifting... In her previous life, when she was in high school, she rode a motorcycle at home. Tried so many times, nothing happened.

She said that she had learned it, and tilted her head to signal to Han Qingsong: "Korea Bureau, get in the car."

Han Qingsong thought for a while, then went back to the office and took a helmet to Lin Lan to fasten.

Lin Lan: "!" You thought you were a Kevlar helmet.

Han Qingsong sat in the bucket, his legs were too long and he couldn't stretch them.

Lin Lan: "Third brother, it's hot~~" There was a 30-degree sun above his head.

"Wear it, or let's change it." Han Qingsong didn't want to take this set.

Lin Lan had to resign herself to wearing the metal helmet, and she was sweating instantly. She started the motorcycle. Who knew that Han Qingsong, who was sitting in the bucket, suddenly jumped up and nimbly sat behind her.

This motorcycle comes standard with three people, one driver and one guard, and the officer sits in the bucket. She sits in front of her, and his long arms and legs can cover her completely, and he doesn't worry that she will step on and twist.

Lin Lan: "Third brother, we are so heavy that we will tip the motorcycle up. Be good, just sit back."

It is played by professionals, and it is a means of transportation for her, so don't make trouble! I'm really going to have a good time, you trust me.

Han Qingsong refused and insisted to take her for a while to see the situation.

Lin Lan had to start the motorcycle, stepped on it, the engine hummed and didn't get up... She did it again... After finding the feeling, she started it up with a bang, put the gear on, and the motorcycle rushed out like a crazy wild dog. .

Lin Lan: "!" Iron guy, you have to restrain yourself, don't waver! This seat cushion is too self-defeating, so bouncing, so upside down, you want to go to heaven

Sun Zhuowen and others ran out to see it, mother, Mr. Lin really dares! How dare you ride that gas tiger! I don't know how difficult it is to drive, it can be turned and crooked... Anyway, it's not easy to drive.

The countryside is not an oil-filled road, and this motorcycle was really bumpy enough to run on it, and Lin Lan couldn't hold it. At first, it didn't feel in the hand, and it was difficult to control. It would be much better to have Han Qingsong's help. Ten minutes later, her movements became smooth and natural, and she motioned him to sit in the bucket.

Han Qingsong saw that she really wouldn't rush into the ditch, so she sat back without jumping out of the car.

After riding for a while, Lin Lan felt really tired. Her back was sore, her arms were sore and her hands were cramping. It was really shocking! She slowed down, "Third brother, it's so hot. Help me take off this iron hat, I'm not the king of iron hats!"

Han Qingsong picked it off for her silently.

Although a little tired, Lin Lan felt that the drive was very refreshing, and it was a good way to pull the wind. The cyclists couldn't help but stop and take a look, and the walking ox-cart looked even more, not even noticing that they had eaten a mouthful of dirt.

"Mother, it's a woman riding a big scorpion."

"That sir is so lucky, there is also a female driver, strangely handsome!"

All the way to the county, much faster than riding a bicycle.

Lin Lan still didn't know what to do, "Third brother, are you here so soon?" At first, he was not proficient, but later, he was a little tired because of nervousness, and waited until he was proficient.

Han Qingsong: "...I will let you ride when I go back."

Lin Lan didn't go to the Revolutionary Committee, but first rode a motorcycle to the supply and marketing agency, and pulled him, "Come on."

When the people from the supply and marketing cooperative saw them, they immediately greeted them attentively. The vice president of the supply and marketing cooperative ran out to receive them in person, "Han Bureau, Secretary Lin, what are you buying?"

Lin Lan took out the money and industrial coupons, and said with a smile, "I'll buy that Shanghai watch." She was afraid that it would be out of stock.

When the vice president heard that she was here to buy a watch, he was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't tell.

Lin Lan: "What's the matter? I made an order before and said that it must be in stock now."

The vice president was a little embarrassed, so he asked Lin Lan to speak in the back, "Mr. Lin, it's really a coincidence. Yesterday someone... I can't afford to be blamed, I can't give it up, but... don't worry, a new one will come in two days, I'll send it to you personally, so that you won't make this trip in vain."

Hearing what he meant, someone used his authority to take away all the inventory, "Who is so domineering?" Lin Lan was a little dissatisfied. Why did she buy five or six yuan at a time, she ordered one, and she took it all away? This is suspected of using power for personal gain and speculation! Who is so bold

The vice president is naturally hard to say, but he is very apologetic.

Lin Lan: "Then tell me exactly how long it will take to arrive."

Vice President: "Maybe for three or five days."

Lin Lan: "I must get it on the eighth day of June."

Vice President: "What's the special meaning?"

Lin Lan: "Yes, so I have to get it."

On the ninth birthday of Han Qingsong in June, Lin Lan wanted to give him a present. At this time, people were poor, and birthday celebrations were not popular. Generally, only children under the age of three and elderly people over the age of sixty celebrated. But Lin Lan wanted to give Han Qingsong a watch for a long time, so it would be more meaningful to give it on his birthday.

But she also knew that it was useless to make things difficult for the vice president. A cadre from the Revolutionary Committee could press him down, and he couldn't do anything about it.

But this didn't delay her resentment for the person who used power for personal gain. If she couldn't get the watch before the eighth day, she would have to secretly see who was so arrogant, and she would add trouble to the other party if she had nothing to do in the future.

The vice president calculated, "Today is the fourth day of the first day, and there are four or five days left. Don't worry, Secretary Lin, you will definitely come."

What he thought was that even if he didn't come, he would go to that person and ask for Lin Lan's piece back, so Director Han couldn't offend him.

He had a good attitude, so Lin Lan naturally wouldn't be difficult for him, just ask him to be careful.

As compensation, the vice president took out some of the good goods that she had intercepted and let her choose, some fine cotton silk and wool threads. Lin Lan unceremoniously bought ten feet of cotton silk and a few kilograms of good wool yarn. Until about 2,000 years ago, sweaters and trousers were still the main clothing in spring and autumn. They were beautiful and kept out the cold. She bought some when she had the chance and tried to get everyone in the family to wear them.

Lin Lan put on a cloth pocket and carried it on her back, came out and said to Han Qingsong, "Third brother, let's go buy a dictionary first."

Han Qingsong took the cloth pocket on her shoulders, and seeing how unhappy she was, he said, "I don't like wearing watches."

Lin Lan laughed: "I like you wearing it."

The Prime Minister is wearing a Shanghai brand watch with a mechanical calendar. I don't know how handsome it is.

Must buy Shanghai brand.

Han Qingsong didn't say anything after seeing her yearning look, and accompanied her to the bookstore next door to buy an English dictionary.

The English dictionary is not cheap, but Lin Lan bought it without blinking. She checked to see if there were any other books or old magazines or something. Now, she takes expired newspaper clippings from the county revolutionary committee and commune, so she doesn't have to buy it herself.

After buying the book, Han Qingsong took her to the Revolutionary Committee first.

At this time, there is a meeting in the office of the secretary of the Revolutionary Committee. There are Director Qin, who is the director and secretary, as well as the deputy directors, old directors, Gao Bureau, Li Bureau, etc. They are also members of the party committee, the old director Also served as deputy secretary.

The discussion was still about the Qingshi Commune. They had already submitted documents to their superiors to explain the situation of the Qingshi Commune, emphasizing that during the Cultural Revolution, the student workers made troubles, which led to the destruction of the documents. Now they are on the right track.

Such a decent excuse is naturally welcome and affirmed from above.

In fact, Director Qin had a solution for this long ago. He originally wanted to deal with it by destroying the Cultural Revolution documents, so that he could help Han Qingsong. But Han Qingsong didn't beg him, so naturally he wouldn't be too proactive. I just didn't expect that Han Qingsong would be able to find such a crucial copy from so many messy documents. He was really lucky.

After the regional revolutionary committee learned about the situation, they repeatedly praised Han Qingsong as a good cadre, quick and reliable in handling affairs, and should be allowed to play more light and heat.

So in order to let Han Qingsong play a greater role, the superior instructed the commune security team in the county area to make adjustments. In the past, the Ministry of Armed Forces led the militia company to maintain law and order. The commune did not have a public security system. Because Han Qingsong was special in Shanshui Commune, the Minister of Armed Forces also served as the director of the Public Security Bureau.

Now to make adjustments, the Armed Forces is only responsible for arming, and the militia company is no longer under its jurisdiction. The public security bureau at the commune level was abolished, and Han Qingsong joined the Party Committee of the County Revolutionary Committee. He was appointed as the deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee. As the deputy director of the county, he managed the militias of each commune and was responsible for the public security of each commune.

Because he is not suitable to continue to serve as the Minister of Armed Forces and the Director of the Public Security Bureau of Shanshui Commune, and the office has to return to the county, so Han Qingsong has to be assigned a house.

The old director said: "Qingsong is a good comrade, and he should be given a room."

The director and the old director agreed, Deputy Director Li naturally couldn't say anything, and he passed with the crowd, and his heart was always very uncomfortable.

After all, he thought very well before. When he took over the position of director, he would be the director of the revolutionary committee and secretary of the county revolutionary committee in a few years. If he was the top leader, it would not matter if Han Qingsong was promoted. He even thought that Han Qingsong was a talented person who could become his own subordinate. Who knew that this bum would become more and more exposed.

Director Qin: "Since it's decided, let's issue the documents, and let Director Lin choose the house."

Everyone knows that Director Han only cares about work, and everything at home is decided by Lin Lan. Even if there is a choice between the two to distribute benefits during the New Year, Han Qingsong has to ask his daughter-in-law what she wants.

Director Qin asked someone to call Shanshui Commune and inform Han Qingsong to come to the meeting tomorrow.

The secretary pushed the door open and said with a smile, "Director Han and Secretary Lin are here."

Deputy Bureau Li sneered: "This is for credit." He knew that Han Qingsong was not so selfless.

Everyone in the audience didn't care. They were used to Han Qingsong's style of work. They didn't need credit for their work, but they had to get benefits. This time, the Revolutionary Committee's welfare credits were given together.

Director Qin asked Han Qingsong and Lin Lan to come over.

Secretary Li came back in a hurry with a look of embarrassment, "Li Bureau..."

Deputy Bureau Li glanced at her, "Call Han Bureau, why did you call me?"

Secretary Li winked at him, obviously not too embarrassed to say it face to face.

Deputy Bureau Li had to get up and go out, "What's going on?"

"You better go and have a look."

Deputy Bureau Li looked at her suspiciously, and had to follow her quickly, before she heard Lin Lan's sneering voice, "How can you be like this, comrade? I made an order at the supply and marketing cooperative two months ago, but you all slammed it. Go. You are too greedy."

Another woman said viciously, "If you don't pay, it's not yours, and you're talking about bullshit? I'll sell it to you if you want, or pull it down if you don't. Country women are really busy!"

Deputy Bureau Li suddenly felt a headache, staggered and almost didn't stop, and quickly supported the wall.

Secretary Li: "Li Bureau, you go to mediate in person..."

Deputy Bureau Li's face changed when he heard the words, "Secretary Li, please, you go to mediate, I'll go first." He pretended not to know anything and ran away.

Secretary Li was very sympathetic to him. Deputy Director Li's old father-in-law was an old man. Although he had retired long ago, he still had his status. Old revolutionary fighters, they were born in a grass-roots family with little culture, and their daughters were not well educated.

Miao Chrysanthemum, oh, now called Miao Hongying, that is a must of the county revolutionary committee compound, no one is not afraid.

Director Qin's family tried to avoid her as much as possible.

Secretary Li cleared his throat and stepped forward, "Sister-in-law, Secretary Lin, what's wrong, how can the family pay..."

Before she could finish speaking, Miao Hongying immediately leaned over and stood side by side with her to run against Lin Lan: "A woman who thinks she looks fair and pretty is just worrying and has a lot of trouble. I kindly bought a watch for everyone, she not only Don't appreciate it, and come to criticize me. Do you think there is something wrong? "

She used to work in a county winery, but when there was not enough food, she asked to be frugal, and the county-level winery was closed and turned into a small oil mill. She is now a cadre of the factory's revolutionary committee. Although he is not educated, he likes to give lectures in meetings, so he has learned a lot of training clichés.

The two had never met before, and this time it was a coincidence. After Lin Lan and Han Qingsong came over, Han Qingsong went to Liu Jianyun, and Lin Lan went to the Publicity Office to learn about the follow-up publicity work of Qingshi Commune. Then she mentioned that she was going to buy a watch for Han Qingsong. After waiting for more than a month, she was caught by someone, which made her a little upset.

She complained unceremoniously: "I don't know who is so careless, but they all take it away!"

Miao Hongying just heard it, and took the initiative to run over to accuse Lin Lan, "You look like a dog, why do you speak ill of people behind your back? If you want a watch, you speak up, and I'll help you with an extra 20 yuan. Buy it back!"

Lin Lan listened to her tone, and then listened to the propaganda officer anxiously introducing that she was Deputy Director Li's lover. What else did she not understand? Intercepted her watch and sold it to her at a higher price

Lin Lan didn't want to get used to her problem!

She thought that the cadres were afraid of being accused of using power for personal gain. But Miao Hongying is an alternative, she believes that she is doing this for everyone's good, and there is nothing wrong with bringing it here.

Lin Lan: "You are speculating, buying and selling, no, I have to report you."

Miao Hongying laughed haha, "Who do you think you are? I'll see where you go to report. You go to the Provincial Revolutionary Committee to report? Such a trivial matter should be handled by others? People will pay attention to you? You go to the prefectural committee? Go , I'm not afraid of you. The current secretary of the prefectural party committee is the commander of our provincial military division. That's my uncle! My grandfather saved his life, haha. Go ahead."

Lin Lan: If you don't teach you how to be a man, you fool, you would think I'm a soft persimmon.

She saw that Miao Hongying was sturdy, and she might not be an opponent if she did something, and she was not very good at the Revolutionary Committee, leaving the image of a shrew to influence Han Qingsong's work.

Seeing her hesitation, Miao Hongying sneered coldly, holding her head high and looking down on the authentic: "I said, Mr. Lin, don't play your temper just because you look a little handsome. What are you crazy about a country woman? In the city. If you don't even have a room, do you think you are a city man? It's amazing to think that your man is from the Public Security Bureau? Let me tell you, the director and the director are also different!"

Just at this moment, the old director strode over with his hands behind his back and coughed heavily.

Miao Hongying was still a little afraid of the old director, because the old director and her father had a good relationship.

The old director said to Lin Lan, "Mr. Lin, come here, the Revolutionary Committee has decided to give Comrade Han Qingsong a house."
