There is room for rebirth at 70: a loyal dog and a rough man’s strong pet

Shi Lingxi and his wife finished their affairs in the provincial capital and happily planned to return to the village early the next morning. Because they had to rush back early the next morning, they washed up early and went to bed to rest. .

However, the Red Star Brigade was not peaceful at this time. In the dark night, people did not go to bed early as usual, but gathered in groups in the streets and alleys, whispering.

The brigade headquarters in the village was also brightly lit at this time, and there were more than a dozen militiamen holding torches and flashlights on standby in the yard.

There were so many people standing together, but they didn't make any sound. They were all waiting quietly. The atmosphere was heavy and depressing, as if something terrible was about to happen.

In the room, there would be fierce arguments from time to time, and then, under the persuasion of others, they would lower their voices and say something as calmly as possible.

Suddenly, a "bang" sound came from the room, followed by Captain Li's voice that could not contain his anger.

"No, I firmly disagree with this. The ancestors of the Lao Shi family have lived in this village, and everyone in the village knows their temperament. If you really do this, you will be completely unconscionable!"

The militiamen in the yard couldn't help but look into the room. Although they were separated by a door, they seemed to have seen Captain Li's face that was flushed with anger.

"Lao Li, please don't get excited. Sit down first and listen to what I have to say."

Then, the voice of brigade secretary Shi Jianhua came out.

"Director Liu, my opinion is the same as that of Captain Li. We cannot implicate the Lao Shi family because of the matter of Li Jiancheng and his wife.

Their family has always performed very well in the village. They have a good relationship with the members and are willing to help others. They are not afraid of hardship or fatigue when working. They can be said to be the leaders of the production team. If we arrest them indiscriminately, Without them, it would be difficult to convince the public! "

Secretary Shi said earnestly to a sullen middle-aged man in the room.

"Hmph, I have evidence to arrest them. Every household in the village is tightening their belts and living a life. How come their family can eat meat every day? If they didn't catch it in the mountains, how could they have transformed it on their own?

You all live in the same village, haven't you noticed anything unusual?What benefit did it give you?Or are you deliberately shielding them because you are related?I heard that your brigade usually takes good care of their family. "

A middle-aged man named Liu was the deputy director of a certain committee of the Hongqi Commune. He didn't know what kind of evil he had suffered today. In the afternoon, he suddenly came to their Red Star brigade with three or four people.

They kept saying that they had received reports from the masses. Shi Lingfeng, his son and his brother, together with Li Jiancheng and his wife, often secretly went to the mountains to sell things and sell them on the black market. This is a typical socialist poaching. They are enemies of the masses and must be arrested and put on trial by the people. .

If he had followed his wishes, the Shi family would have been in trouble by now. Unfortunately, the two heads of the village had always been opposed to it. When he was summoning the militia in a hurry, they stopped the group of people with a strong attitude.

The militiamen were all children who grew up in the village, and some of them had good relations with the Shi family. They were not willing to do such immoral things in the first place. With a secretary and a captain, Deputy Director Liu would be even more immovable.

This made the man surnamed Liu very angry. In the past few years when he was the deputy director, he had always followed orders and prohibited them. He had to obey the wind and rain, but never before had someone dared to block him like this. of.

Therefore, Deputy Director Liu, who had been holding back his anger for a long time, suddenly targeted the two brigade cadres who overestimated their capabilities and dared to go against his dignified deputy director of the commune.

As his words fell, the faces of everyone in the room changed nervously. The accountant of the brigade and the militia company commander glanced at Li Jianguo nervously, and they all remained silent for fear of getting angry.

Li Jianguo's heart also sank. This man surnamed Liu actually gave them such a big label. If this was confirmed, it would really be enough for him and Shi Jianhua to drink.

You know, although the current situation is no longer as severe as in previous years, and all aspects have been relaxed a lot, the situation is still not clear, so we still dare not be careless!

Both of them understood that they could no longer speak for the Shi Lingfeng family, otherwise they would have to be involved.

However, they could not remain indifferent as they just watched the man surnamed Liu act recklessly in the village.

The two people's eyes met for a while. With the tacit understanding of their partners for many years, they had already made a decision in their hearts. However, they both wanted to stand out and protect each other.

There was no way, both of them couldn't join in, one had to be left to take control of the overall situation. Although there had been chaos outside in the past few years, since the two of them partnered up, their village had never held any of those messy meetings to deal with people. .

Even when it was absolutely necessary, they would just go through the motions and express their feelings, but they would not act excessively. Therefore, their village has been very stable in the past few years. Today, this man named Liu is going to stir up trouble in their village. .

Because he was a wounded soldier and retired from the army, and his family was poor peasants for several generations, so he was a member of the Miaohong family. Therefore, Shi Jianhua spoke before Li Jianguo could speak.

After he argued hard, Liu finally reluctantly agreed to let them go tonight and hold a meeting to criticize the Shi Lingfeng brothers during the day tomorrow. As for their father, Shi Jianhua tried his best to save them.

The man surnamed Liu took the others to the rest room of the brigade headquarters to rest. The remaining cadres in the village looked at each other in confusion.

After a moment of silence, Shi Jianhua winked at Li Jianguo, and then told everyone to go back to sleep. The two of them left the brigade headquarters first, saying they were going home.

After walking far away, they saw that no one was following them, so the two of them quietly came together and discussed in a low voice.

Then, the two figures headed towards Lao Shi's house in the dark night. They had to discuss what to do tomorrow.

Because the militiamen had just dispersed and gone home to rest, the commune members on the street saw that there was no excitement to see, so they all dispersed and went back to their homes.

There were no pedestrians on the road, so the two of them didn't waste any time and quickly arrived at Shi's house in the southwest corner of the village.
