Siheyuan: Becoming a cadre after graduating from technical secondary school

Lin Zongxuan suddenly got up, put on a coat in a panic, and ran to his younger sister's bedroom. He pushed the door open without knocking and walked in.

Sure enough, the ground was covered with broken glass. Lin Keke was curled up in the quilt, crying and gasping for breath, not sure if she was cold or scared.

After seeing Lin Zongxuan, the little girl stopped crying and timidly opened her hands.

"Keke, don't cry. Your brother is here."

Lin Zongxuan quickly picked up his sister and took her to his room, and began to comfort her in a low voice.

After a while, the lights in the Lin family were turned on, and the whole family gathered in Lin Chaosheng's bedroom.

Father Lin's face turned green as he asked, "Did you see who did it?"

When he learned that no one noticed it, he thought about it carefully and immediately decided to find someone to hold a meeting of the entire school tomorrow.

This is no small matter. In the cold winter in the north, the Lin family has elderly and children. If they are not careful, they may get sick or freeze to death.

Even if nothing happens, smashing someone's window is like hitting someone in the face, which means making an enemy. (So I have always wondered why smashing someone's window is so easy to ignore in many period dramas. The further back in time, the more people should care about this.)

Finally that night, the broken window was temporarily blocked with a pile of straw, and Lin's mother took Lin Keke away.

Originally, Lin Keke wanted to stay in Lin Zongxuan's bed, and Xiao Lin didn't pay much attention to it, but Lin's mother's words shocked them both.

"Keke is frightened, be careful she might pee on your bed in the middle of the night!"

The next day, Lin Zongxuan got up sleepily and went to the public water pipe in the Central Courtyard to wash up. Sure enough, he saw Lin's mother washing bed sheets nearby.

Next to Lin's mother was a pretty young wife. Although she was dressed simply, her graceful figure could be seen even in the cold winter.

The young wife seemed to sense someone behind her. She turned her head and revealed a pair of charming big watery eyes. After seeing Lin Zongxuan, she smiled and said, "Zongxuan, you got up really late."

"That's not the case. I was scared last night and was in a state of panic until midnight."

Lin Zongxuan yawned and said tentatively.

The young wife, Qin Huairu, who is not even 30 years old, also stood up for the Lin family angrily: "That's right, no matter what, you can't smash other people's windows in the middle of the night. Aunt Lin told me about this just now and I was so angry. I don't know which family is so wicked that they scared my son Bang Geng to wet the bed."

"Bang Geng is so big now, it's time for him to sleep alone, no wonder."

Lin Zongxuan thought about it and asked again pretending nothing had happened.

Could it be that I was wrong? But if it wasn't a joke, which kid would dare to be so naughty?

In the past few days since he came back, he has realized that in the past few years since he went to school, Banggeng has initially shown the potential to become a future "King of Thieves".

Although he didn't dare to steal anything, it was common for him to steal a cabbage from one house and a handful of peanuts from another house. He was a bully among the kids in the yard.

These are mainly influenced by his grandmother who loves to take advantage of others. The child does not need to be taught until he is ten years old, as words and deeds are enough to influence him for a lifetime.

And Jia Dongxu, the "filial son", really doesn't dare to care about his mother now.

"How can Banggeng sleep alone? His grandmother takes good care of him. He usually sleeps with her."

When Qin Huairu talked about this, there was a hint of unnaturalness in her eyes.

"That's good. It's better to be close to grandma than not to be close at all."

Lin Zongxuan left with a smile, and he was going to collect evidence.

In this era, in fact, all the compounds like to keep things secret. If there is a friction or a fight between neighbors, or if someone steals a cabbage from someone else's house, or pulls a radish from someone else's house, they basically don't like to report it to the authorities. Everything is settled internally by the person in charge.

The real name of the manager should be "community mediator". It was originally a special position elected by the masses and appointed by the community street office in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to prevent the infiltration of spies. It is not a real administrative position.

More than a decade has passed, and their main historical mission has actually been completed. However, for the sake of management convenience, the street office still allows them to handle neighborhood disputes.

The way the manager maintains his authority is to convene a general meeting of the entire institute, gather the power of the masses, and defeat the reactionaries who undermine unity.

At that time, the Red Star Courtyard had not yet formed the habit of holding regular meetings of the whole courtyard, so when the three uncles heard what Lin's father said, they immediately agreed.

After having dinner early in the evening, the Lin family walked towards the open space where the meeting was to be held. Quite a few people were already standing there. At the front of the open space stood a tattered wooden table and three chairs. The third uncle was holding a teacup and maintaining order.

After a while, seeing that most people had arrived, several uncles also walked to the front of the crowd and sat down. The second uncle Liu Haizhong spoke first. He shook his throat, stood up and said loudly: "Our courtyard has always been famous for its unity courtyard."

"This year, the subdistrict office said that they would evaluate advanced courtyard houses, and those that were selected would receive rewards for rice, flour, grain and oil. This reward will be distributed to every household."

Seeing the crowd below start to talk about the reward, the second uncle drank a sip of tea with satisfaction and continued: "Originally, the other two uncles and I have already discussed that this year our courtyard must be rated as an excellent courtyard."

"But!"

The second uncle changed his tone to a stern one.

"Last night, something horrifying happened. The glass of the Lin family was smashed in the middle of the night."

"That word is horrific." The third uncle reminded quietly at the side, which helped the second uncle get stuck.

"That's right, the glass of the Lin family was smashed, smashed, smashed."

Seeing the second uncle hesitating on the stage, the audience was confused. Was the Lin family attacked once or three times?

Yi Zhonghai, an old man standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and took over the conversation, saying, "That's what happened. Around 12 o'clock last night, the glass of the right wing of the Lin family was smashed.

Whoever smashed it, please come out and apologize if necessary and pay the money if necessary, so as to avoid being caught and beaten up in vain."
