Chapter 256 The second uncle’s problem is not small
The second uncle nodded, got up and followed him out of the yard. The two of them walked slowly along the mountain road in the morning. The sunlight had begun to slowly become horizontal. Walking on the mountain road It's a bit cold, and the second uncle seems to have sobered up a lot.
It turns out that in the meeting just now, no one agreed to take her home to raise her. It’s too unrealistic. If she takes her home, she can only keep her in a circle. Who would do this?
The village secretary asked the second uncle to find feed. The reason was still the same. The ruin of the chicken farm this year was suggested by the second uncle's nephew and was instigated by the second uncle.
Besides, the second uncle once said that his nephew was experimenting with feed formulas, and he should be able to get feed. As for the money for feed, he owes it on credit first. All the money in the village has been distributed to celebrate the New Year, but now there is none. Return it whenever you have it.
What the hell is going on? This old branch secretary is really good at scheming. He can be plotted even before he comes back. The second uncle is a loser.
Seeing that his second uncle had finished speaking and looked at him with a hint of hope, Zhu Xuefeng wanted to curse, but suppressed his anger and lit another cigarette for his second uncle.
"Second uncle, let me ask you a few things, please tell me what you think."
Seeing his second uncle nodding, Zhu Xuefeng took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at The mountains in the distance, with a long breath, finally suppressed the anger in his heart.
“You are talking about this chicken farm. Let me ask, has anyone in the village ever praised you or thanked you?”
The second uncle was obviously stunned, his mouth was full of bitterness, and the cigarette was no longer fragrant. It took him a long time to mutter a word.
"No, I just waited for the chickens to lay eggs in exchange for money..."
"Are you a village cadre? Has the village entrusted you to run a chicken farm? Or is it the village party secretary? I want to give up my position to you!”
The second uncle was speechless when asked, and he was a little strange. Didn’t the eldest nephew always support the development of the village? What happened today? He did it all. In order to help the development of the village, there is no selfish thought at all, let alone the position of village party secretary.
"Second uncle, as a junior, it is a bit inappropriate to talk to you like this, but I still want to say, I hope you can understand, some things must be talked about, otherwise I will not be able to live in this life in the future. "
I heard what the eldest nephew said seriously. The eldest nephew is also a person now. He thinks things through. He is really not comparable to a farmer who has been digging land in the mountains all his life.
From the news I received through several messages, I also know that my eldest nephew is now quite famous, far beyond his peers.
"Tell me, it's okay. My second uncle is actually quite troubled. He wants to do something, but now he is not a human being inside and outside. In the second half of the year, he and your second aunt have had several quarrels, and now the village is also In this way, I don’t know what I did wrong.”
It’s okay, the second uncle still knows his current situation, and he knows that he is not a human being after working hard for half a year, and he can still be saved.
The second uncle's current situation cannot be cured by scolding. Besides, no eldest nephew would scold his own uncle. He has to think of other ideas.
"Second uncle, it is said that this idea came from me, and I also support the development of the village, so I can understand some of your things."
The second uncle breathed a sigh of relief, and the eldest nephew understood. Well, it’s not like the mother-in-law at home who gave a few cartons of cigarettes, took the money brought back by the eldest nephew, invited people to drink a few times, and then made a few troubles. She is really a woman. She has long hair and short knowledge, but the eldest nephew understands. Own.
Seeing that his second uncle's mood calmed down, Zhu Xuefeng nodded. He must say this today. Even if he is deceived, he must turn his second uncle around, otherwise he will be in trouble in the future.
"Second uncle, you can understand this when everyone picks up the material and the flames are high."
Second uncle took a sip and smiled.
“Of course my second uncle understands this, so we have to mobilize everyone to do this together. How powerful can one person be? Isn’t this unity the strength.”
Seeing that my second uncle is not only After catching up with the rhythm and starting to play freely, Zhu Xuefeng smiled and followed along.
“That’s right, there are three piles for a fence, and one stick cannot build a frame. Naturally, the fire will not burn high, but there is an explanation for how to collect firewood with everyone.”
The flames are high when everyone is gathering firewood. What kind of care can there be in gathering firewood? The second uncle looked at the eldest nephew blankly. Seeing that the second uncle could not understand, Zhu Xuefeng did not take it seriously and continued to talk.
"Normally, you are busy on the chicken farm. As an ordinary person, you should be doing very well and you can be said to be doing your best."
The second uncle deeply agreed. He had indeed paid a lot, even the money and cigarettes sent back by his eldest nephew...
“But look, why is no one coming to collect firewood with you? You are the only one working hard, spending time, energy and money, so why is no one following? Don’t you know about chicken farms? Is it to help the development of the village and everyone will benefit? Or is there no future for the chicken farm and it cannot benefit everyone?”
The second uncle is also thinking, indeed everyone knows that anyone who doesn’t raise chickens will rely on chickens. It’s okay to have some pocket money in your butt, but why is this happening? Before the second uncle could answer, Zhu Xuefeng continued.
"No, none of it. It's not that you don't want to take the lead. It's that you don't lead the lead properly. It's so crooked that others can't keep up. They can only watch from a distance. This is Question."
Seeing his second uncle stunned, Zhu Xuefeng did not explain and continued to exert his strength.
"You don't care about personal gains and losses. You spent dozens of dollars on it. Who can do it? How can you follow if you can't do it? You set the tone too high, so I said, Your headgear is not good, it is very bad, and it directly excludes other people from this project."
The second uncle lowered his head and muttered to himself, his belief was seriously affected, and he acted too much. Yes, sacrificing yourself, caring for everyone, and selfless dedication are all wrong, aren't they?
“You still have to position yourself correctly. You are still an ordinary villager. If you do the work of an ordinary person, you can lead many people. But you have taken away all the work of the cadres. ”
“Now that’s good, up and down, who else will worry about and participate in it? Why don’t cadres take the lead now? Why don’t cadres take the lead? ?”
“Why are you allowed to come up? It’s obvious that the village cadres have objections. You have too much to do. Aren’t you capable? Come on, he who can do the hard work will leave all the chicken farm matters to you. Come on, everyone is watching.”
"As for the selflessness and dedication you mentioned, there is a problem with your understanding of these. Selfless dedication also depends on the situation. Sometimes if the dedication is not good, it will be counterproductive. It is not obvious that you are in the current situation. You have dedicated, and everyone else has. "Don't move."
Seeing that the second uncle was ignorant and couldn't understand that how to donate depends on the situation, he probably thought that he was talking nonsense, so he had to use his power to suppress others.
“Second uncle can actually conscientiously implement the requirements of his superiors. Working down-to-earth is dedication. Originally, everyone is the same. If we work hard on this matter, everyone will also contribute. , this thing may be done.”
“But what are you doing now? You set the tone of dedication so high that no one can follow it. This kind of selfless dedication must be. Under the guidance of the superiors, everyone makes selfless contributions."
"You take the lead alone. This is not called selfless dedication. A few years ago, during the multinational war, when the superiors advocated selfless contributions from everyone, You could be so selfless at that time, but now in the period of peace building, your selfless dedication is very inappropriate and will only hinder the dedication of others, so I say there is a time for selfless dedication.”
"What you are doing now, according to your own understanding, is selfless dedication. Isn't it good? The great man said, don't make unnecessary sacrifices. It will really break up the family. If you want to continue to contribute in the future, you will have no chance." , is it better to make one selfless contribution or to make a long-term and moderate contribution?"
"The second aunt just wants to live a better life at home. There is nothing wrong with that. Home is society. The most direct impact of what you do now is to destroy your own home. To put it harshly, this is disturbing the foundation of society and is a big mistake!"
Looking at the second uncle, he was already a little scared! , whether he listened or not, or whether he was frightened, but when the question was raised, he had to give the second uncle a direction to strive for, otherwise the man would be ruined if he fell into confusion.
"Second uncle, now every family has its own land, and family side jobs are also liberalized. If you really have the unconvinced spirit, you can live a good life at home. Everyone can see this. You can learn from it if you see it. If everyone is better off, your leading role will be reflected, and you will stop getting involved in the chicken farm. "
Look. The second uncle who was silent and in a mess, Zhu Xuefeng threw down the cigarette butt and stamped it out.
"After you finish your meal, go and tell the village party secretary that this chicken farm belongs to the village. You don't care about it and you can't control it. If he has any ideas, let him come to me himself."
Leave the rest. The cigarette he dropped was stuffed into the second uncle's hand. He ignored the second uncle who was in a daze and said hello to the second uncle in the ravine in the distance.
"Xue Song, brought my brothers home for dinner..."
Zhu Xuefeng had already taken his brothers home. The second uncle shivered and took out a cigarette. It took a long time. I lit it, found a stone on the side of the road, and sat down. What the eldest nephew said just now completely stunned the second uncle. It seemed to make sense, but something seemed wrong. He was confused and confused. He smoked two more cigarettes, and the cigarette touched his lips directly, and then he realized My eldest nephew has been gone for a long time.
The mountains that can be seen every day in the distance seem to be more mysterious. Even the setting sun looks a little different. It seems that I have never understood this world. Second Uncle is heavy 's sigh.
There must be something wrong inside and outside. The eldest nephew will not cheat him. He is the smartest in the old Zhu family. If you don’t understand it, don’t think about it. Just do what the eldest nephew says. This chicken farm I will never get involved again, live my life in a down-to-earth manner, and set an example by living a good life.
Scattered sound of firecrackers came from the distant village. This was because I had a little extra money this year, so I gritted my teeth and bought one for my children to open.
Yes, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and next is the New Year, so let yourself start from the New Year. The second uncle put down his obsession and strode home.
“Brother, I really can’t wait for my second uncle.”
The second child is still a little unsure. Is it appropriate to have dinner at the second uncle's house without waiting for the second uncle to come back?
"Wait a minute, what are you waiting for this old ghost to do? You've been running all the way, and you're just eating now. It's already late. Eat your own, and I left it for him."
What's the matter? The dinner was very simple, with three vegetarian dishes, two pickles, and no eggs. However, the warm stick rice porridge, with pickles and steamed buns, was enjoyed by everyone.
The second aunt finished eating quickly and hurried to the kitchen. Yesterday, she gave out Erhe noodles. Today, she has to steam the steamed buns. Originally, she had to go to the cafeteria to queue up to borrow a big pot to steam them in the evening. Now she’s done. There is a pot at home.
After several people finished eating, Zhu Xuefeng took out two small whips and threw them at Zhu Xuesong.
"Take your brothers and sisters to set off whips. Don't run too far away. Remember not to throw them on other people's firewood piles. Go, all go, don't leave anyone at home."
The second child. If Ruo realized something, he took his brothers and sisters out. It was already getting dark. As soon as they said there was no need to set off firecrackers, they all ran away.
There were sporadic explosions in the distance, and a figure entered the yard. The second uncle was back. The second aunt was still guarding the main room, chatting with Zhu Xuefeng about trivial matters at home. Seeing the second uncle back, she spoke angrily. .
“How old are you? It’s already dark. I don’t know how to go home for dinner. Everything is steaming in the pot. Go get it yourself and free up the pot so I can steam the steamed buns.”
The second uncle stepped forward and apologized directly to his wife with a red face.
"Daughter-in-law, it's my fault today. I held my breath in the village and went home to talk nonsense. I also did some things wrong in the past. I will change them in the future. Let's live a good life at home first."
The second aunt was overjoyed. , in the second half of last year, the head of the family seemed to be possessed, pulling all nine cows back, and plunged into all the bad things in the village. The family didn't care about it, and even ate all the things brought by the eldest nephew. We started quarreling as soon as we talked about it, but now we finally look back.
"You will sit down with your eldest nephew first. I will bring the porridge and vegetables. They are still hot. Eat quickly. You must be starving."
Looking at the kitchen in a hurry My daughter-in-law, I haven’t seen her with such energy in a while, but my eldest nephew was right. The conflict was resolved at once, and half of the people inside and outside were suddenly reduced.
With less worries, my second uncle also ate deliciously. There was a sound from far outside the yard. It was someone coming to the door.
"Second aunt, is second aunt at home?"
Second aunt responded quickly. It turned out that the neighbor saw smoke coming out of the chimney of Lao Zhu's house, so he had an extra thought and came to ask. It’s not that we have a pot. If we had a pot, we wouldn’t go to the canteen and wait in line, but come to Second Aunt’s house to steam the steamed buns.
Of course the second aunt will not refuse this. We are all from the hometown. Besides, the New Year is coming, and everyone has to prepare New Year’s dishes. It is too inconvenient not to have a pot.
A few aunts and daughters-in-law came soon after. Not only were they steaming steamed buns, but there were also other dishes that required a pot.
“It’s too late. The notice was given at the end of November, and it’s just in time for the Chinese New Year. The pot just can’t come out. Not long ago, someone came to the village to sign the loan document and borrow the pot. We I was afraid of being cheated, so the neighboring village took out several loans.”
Iron pot loan is a new thing that some people with sensitive sense of smell are struggling with in special times. Villagers only need to sign a loan document to get an iron pot and use the subsequent harvest or money to return it. For some reasons, these people have disappeared. No one came to collect the agreed loan.
"You stay for a while, I'll go find the village party secretary."
The second uncle threw away the bowls and chopsticks after eating and ran away. Zhu Xuefeng was more thoughtful and secretly ordered Xiao Hei to follow him. .
After a while, Xiao Hei followed his second uncle to the village party secretary's house. Xiao Hei carefully inspected the entire yard and rooms. Unfortunately, the village party secretary's house was just like ordinary people, with no food, no pots, and no food in the kitchen. Nothing good.
It seems that this cunning old man is not only a little bit clever, but he is not involved in corruption or occupying public funds. In other words, he has some tricks and tricks. It is not worth making him unlucky for a day. It is better to save this stuff. If it is used well, Zhu Xuefeng does not want to be unlucky from time to time.
Not long after the second uncle came back, the village party secretary came with his people. The second aunt and several young wives were busy in the kitchen, and hearty laughter could be heard from time to time.
"This is Comrade Xiao Zhu. He went back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year. He drove back by himself. This means he has become a cadre. Congratulations, little comrade is making rapid progress."
Far away, the village party secretary greeted Zhu Xuefeng who was staying in the yard as soon as he entered the yard.
Zhu Xuefeng replied with a smile.
"Secretary, you are really good at joking. I am still in school. What kind of cadre do you want to be? You are our cadre. I borrowed this car from the government. It will be more convenient to come back. I have to go back tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch the car. .”
A few people chatted and entered the main room. The second aunt came out and took several bowls to fill with water.
"I won’t drink the water. I just heard your second uncle say that he doesn’t care about the chicken farm. If you have anything to do with your nephew, we will come over. We have no choice but to find a way for the village to survive. It’s not going well, it’s all stumbling.”
Tsk, this grassroots leader is also impeccable in his words. What does it mean to come to your nephew for anything? He said that if he has any ideas, he can come to him.
Now it is natural for him to ask him for help as soon as he encounters difficulties. Zhu Xuefeng is sure that his second uncle will not tamper with his words.
The second aunt just smiled and did not continue.
"My nephew can't take care of the big things in this village. Let's talk about it. It's better for us women to go and get busy."
"I wonder what the secretary wants from me?"< br>
"Comrade Xiao Zhu, I won't hide it from you. The chickens in our village can no longer be raised. There is no feed. I would like to ask you to help solve the problem. This chicken farm was your idea. There is no feed. These The chickens will starve to death, you can’t bear it.”
Zhu Xuefeng took out his cigarette and lit one, but this time he didn’t give it to anyone.
"Secretary, you are joking. This chicken farm was my idea. The city knew about it and even investigated me."
The village party secretary was a little embarrassed and smiled.
"This is a good thing. The superiors are investigating you and they must praise you."
Zhu Xuefeng is too lazy to go around in circles. Simple and always watertight.
"I don't know whether to express praise or not, but I received the warning. I also opened the window and spoke frankly. I can't get this feed and I won't care about it."
The village chief who followed him I'm a little anxious. I was worried because I ran out of feed. After listening to the village party secretary's idea, I felt relieved and waited for the New Year. Now that Zhu Xuefeng has made it clear that he won't help, what should I do?
"Comrade Xiao Zhu, you can't do this. It's not appropriate for you to set up the village and ignore it. This will affect the harvest of the whole village, young and old. You..."
