Although Bai Lu feels that Wen Nian is indeed better at painting, the job of a publicity officer is not difficult, and it does not necessarily require painting. It is easy for others to replace him.
Thinking about this, she asked: "Jinbao, why do you think they can't do it?"
The little girl didn't explain too much and just said: "Anyway, mom, you don't have to worry. Even if Uncle Luo initially agrees to let those educated youths alternate as propaganda officers, in the end, he will definitely find that the most suitable person for this position is only the third brother!"
"I hope..." Bai Lu still felt faintly worried and uneasy in her heart.
Wennian used to paint at home every day, never going out or making friends. Now he finally has a job that is more suitable for him. He is doing quite well and is more cheerful. If the job suddenly disappears, then
But what to do?
"Aunt Bai, I think we should go to the production team and have a look," Hua Wenli suggested. "Maybe if you talk next to me, Captain Luo will not be coerced by Liao Feihong and the others. What do you think?"
Bai Lu felt that she shouldn't be that important.
Captain Luo has a better relationship with Jinbao's father than he does.
They had a drink together a few days ago and chatted about everything. They were considered good friends.
Thinking of this, she said: "We still have to go find Jinbao's father! Let him go to the production team to check on the situation."
Jiang Yun, who was standing on the balcony on the second floor, heard their conversation and said to the people downstairs: "Uncle Su, Xiao Si, and Xiao Wu went to the mountains to collect firewood and cut pig grass. I'll go find them. Aunt Bai, you go to the production team first."
Bar."
"Jiang Yun, are you okay going to the mountain alone?"
Jiang Yun said without thinking: "I often go up the mountain alone!"
Bai Lu was still a little worried, "Although many animals in the mountains are hibernating in winter, which is relatively safe, Jiang Yun, you are young and did not grow up in this village. If you accidentally get lost, you will be in trouble."
"Aunt Bai, I'm really fine..."
While Jiang Yun was talking, his mother Huang Yuzhu woke up from her nap.
"What's wrong?" She walked to the yard and asked Bai Lu, "What happened?"
Hua Wenli summarized the matter, and then said: "Now we have to quickly find Uncle Su and go to the production team..."
"I'll go!" Huang Yuzhu said, "I'm familiar with this mountain. I can definitely find Jinbao's father."
After saying that, she gently pushed Bai Lu's shoulder, "You go to the production team first, and you must persuade Captain Luo. Wen Nian has done a good job, why should you give it to others? There is no such reason! Those
Have you never heard of educated youth being on a first-come, first-served basis?”
"Yuzhu, your body has gotten better recently. You go to the mountains in this cold weather..."
"Oh, I'm feeling very well. Stop procrastinating and go quickly!"
Under Huang Yuzhu's urging, Bai Lu hurriedly pulled Jin Bao towards the production team.
Hua Wenli strode along beside her, because she had worked hard all day digging soil and breaking rocks, and she was rushing down the mountain from the other side of the terraces to inform the news. She was so tired that she was panting and could hardly keep up.
"Sister Wenli, please sit on the roadside and rest for a while. Mom and I will rush there," Jinbao said.
Her mother nodded, "Yes, you are covered in sweat..."
Hua Wenli thought it would be useless if she went, so she stopped and nodded: "Okay."
When Bai Lu rushed to the production team with her daughter, Liao Feihong was leading several other male educated youths in the team leader's office, shouting that it was unfair, they were all educated youths, and there was no reason that only Su Wennian could do such a leisurely job.
"Oh, how many times do you want me to say this? I asked Wennian to do this job, and he does it very well..."
"That's because we haven't gone to the countryside yet. Now that we have joined the production team, the propaganda officer job should be done in turns. This is only fair!" After yelling, Liao Feihong shouted again, "Do you think this is right?
ah?"
"Yes! That's right!" The other educated youths said in unison, "We should take turns!"
Luo Youlong felt that his eardrums were about to be burst by them.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Liao Feihong suddenly asked: "Captain Luo, are you getting any benefits from taking over the Su family? Are you protecting Su Wenian like this?"
"What?" Luo Youlong was stunned for two seconds, "Benefits?"
When he came to his senses, he immediately clenched his fists and said angrily: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. What benefits do I get from accepting the Su family? Please make your words clear to me!"
"I heard that you and Su Wennian's father are brothers, and you even gave the Su family the pigs that should have been raised by the production team," Liao Feihong said with contempt, "Especially the job of propaganda officer, you only let Su Wennian do it.
Who would believe that you have no benefits from the Su family? Don’t think that being the captain of the production team can cover the sky with one hand. If you have problems as the captain, we can propose to remove you!"
After he finished speaking, he felt unimpressive, so he deliberately asked: "Are you right?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" The other educated youths surrounding Liao Feihong shouted, already in the same posture as those who caused trouble in the previous two years.
"Don't accuse Captain Luo wrongly," Bai Lu couldn't stand it any longer and stepped forward and said, "The reason why we raise pigs for the production team is because we have just settled in the village and want to help. Pig raising is inherently thankless.
Errand."
Liao Feihong looked Bai Lu up and down for a while and asked, "Are you Su Wennian's mother?"
Bai Lu responded as politely as possible: "Yes, I am Wennian's mother. I understand your feelings that it is unfair, but since Wennian is already working as a publicity officer and has not had any problems, I think there is a way for everything.
First come, first served, right? Just because you are also educated youth, you can't take his job.
In addition to the propaganda officer, the production team also has other positions such as accountant, scorekeeper, warehouse keeper, etc. Other members of the village have never said that these positions are easier, so everyone must take turns, right?"
She tried to speak tactfully, not wanting to cause conflict.
What Bai Lu didn't expect was that her words inexplicably stimulated Liao Feihong's heart.
Looking at Su Wennian's mother in front of him, who was not only beautiful and elegant, but also spoke softly, Liao Feihong's mind came to a shrew who only knew how to beat and scold himself. She was ugly and had a bad mouth. She would either scold him or him all day long.
Two brothers.
Thinking of his stepmother's vicious face, Liao Feihong suddenly felt even more jealous of Su Wennian.
Seeing that he was distracted, Bai Lu asked doubtfully: "Did you hear what I said? Since we are in the same production team, we are a big collective. Many things can be discussed carefully. There is no need to make trouble like just now. Not only will the problem not be solved,
…”
Before she could finish speaking, Liao Feihong interrupted: "Mom, who do you think you are? You're not a member of the commune. Just chop your pigweed at home. I'm discussing with Captain Luo the work arrangements of the production team. It's turns here.
