Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 1148: One Step to the End

"Secretary Liao is here. Big Boss Tang privately lynched my father and Uncle Qin. Please save them quickly."

He Jiali and He Jiawen held Secretary Liao's arms on the left and right, as if they were afraid that he would run away.

Secretary Liao said righteously: "This Tang Liye is just talking nonsense. What kind of place is this? This is the people's factory. If you abuse lynching and torture people to get confessions here, our party branch will be the first to disapprove!"

The dozen or so workers behind him were also filled with righteous indignation. It was obvious that Boss Tang had offended many people during this period.

"Open the door, open the door quickly!"

He Jiali banged on the warehouse door anxiously.

"Who are you? This is a restricted warehouse, no one is allowed in."

"It's me, open the door for me!"

The person inside opened the door a crack and was about to take a look at the situation outside when Secretary Liao and his men rushed in.

Boss Tang was feeling very proud and thinking about how to deal with He Changsheng later, when suddenly a group of people rushed in, catching him off guard.

"Secretary Liao... Secretary Liao, why are you here?"

Secretary Liao pointed at the tied Qin Hongqi and He Changsheng and said, "The girl from the He family just told me this, but I still can't believe it."

"Tang Liye, you are so bold! Who gave you the right to lynch revolutionary workers here, including a party member?"

Boss Tang was really panicking now: "Secretary Liao, listen to me..."

"You don't need to explain to me. Just release him first. You can explain to everyone at the factory committee meeting tomorrow."

Qin Hao and the other two had already stepped forward and untied the ropes on Qin Hongqi and He Changsheng.

He Jiali looked at the marks on He Changsheng's hands and was so angry that she was about to rush up and fight with Lao Tang.

"Big Boss Tang, what right do you have to tie up my dad? I'm going to fight you!"

Boss Tang could only escape in a panic under the cover of a few lackeys.

"Haozi, how did you find this place?" Qin Hongqi asked.

"Mom saw that you hadn't come back after get off work for such a long time, and Uncle He from next door hadn't come back either. I felt something was wrong, so I brought He Jiali and the others to the factory to look for someone."

He Changsheng hugged his eldest daughter with red eyes and said with emotion: "It's okay, Dad is fine."

He Jiawen also threw himself on He Changsheng and cried silently.

At this moment, He Changsheng suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with his daughter.

Secretary Liao said to Qin Hongqi solemnly: "Don't worry, I will ask the factory to deal with this matter seriously. Tang Liye is outrageous. He dared to abuse lynching against an old party member like you."

"Thank you, Secretary Liao."

"We are all family, so let's not talk about different things. You can go back and have a good rest today. Your family must have been waiting for a long time. I will give you a satisfactory answer tomorrow."

Qin Hao and his group of five returned home. Zhou Guilan and Liu Meixin hurried forward to check on their husbands.

The third child, He Jiayi, also threw himself into He Changsheng's arms and cried.

After hearing their husbands talk about their experiences, Zhou Guilan and Liu Meixin cursed Mr. Tang for being irresponsible.

He Changsheng suddenly laughed. Liu Meixin asked in confusion, "Big Boss Tang has made you like this, and you're still laughing."

"Today's incident can be considered a blessing in disguise. Although Lao Qin and I have suffered a little, I'm afraid that Lao Tang will have a hard time in the future."

Liu Meixin asked curiously, "What happened to Big Boss Tang?"

"You'll have to ask your precious daughter about this."

He Jiali recounted how the three of them found the warehouse and how Qin Hao asked them to go to the Party Committee to ask for help.

Liu Meixin's eyes lit up: "So, Big Boss Tang won't be the director of the Revolutionary Committee for long?"

"Not only will he be the director of the Revolutionary Committee, he might even be fired. To be honest, it's thanks to Lao Qin being a Party member, otherwise..."

He Changsheng secretly made up his mind to become a party member.

Qin Hongqi was not as optimistic as He Changsheng: "Big Boss Tang is wild, and now we have one night to do something. I'm afraid that the longer the night, the more trouble he will have."

Just as Qin Hongqi said, Boss Tang knew that today's incident had become a big deal, so he immediately rummaged through the drawers and took out all the valuables in the house after returning home.

"What's wrong? Why are you acting like crazy as soon as you get back?" the hot spring woman asked dissatisfiedly.

"Crazy, I'm really going crazy now..."

When the elder Mr. Tang explained the situation, Mrs. Tang also realized the seriousness of the problem: "These unlucky kids, why are they everywhere?"

"Stop talking nonsense and pack up your things. I'm going to go to Deputy Director Guo right away. He's the only one who can protect me now."

"Yes, yes, go now."

Boss Tang carried the things and came to Deputy Director Guo's house in the dark, but this time he couldn't even get in.

"Old Tang, you should go back and write a self-criticism and make a thorough self-examination at the factory committee meeting tomorrow."

After saying that, he closed the door without giving Big Boss Tang a chance to speak.

Looking at the gifts that couldn't even be given away, Boss Tang realized that the problem seemed to be more serious than he had imagined.

After returning home, Boss Tang thought about it over and over again, but still couldn't figure out what the problem was.

Early the next morning, Boss Tang came to the meeting room with a nervous mood.

Just as Boss Tang was about to take out the self-criticism he had written last night and start reading it, he was suddenly interrupted by Secretary Liao.

"Here is an anonymous letter reporting Comrade Tang Liye. The letter points out that Tang Liye's third uncle was not a martyr, but on the contrary he went to Taiwan. According to our investigation with comrades in Shanghai, Comrade Tang Liye's third uncle is indeed not on the list of martyrs, and we cannot rule out the possibility that he went to Taiwan."

Big Boss Tang’s head suddenly exploded.

The reason why he was able to become the director was largely due to the preferential treatment given to the families of martyrs. If his third uncle was not a martyr but a traitor, then his problem would be serious.

At this moment, he finally understood why he was turned away by Deputy Director Guo last night. It seemed that he had been completely abandoned.

"I propose that Tang Liye be relieved of all his duties and that he be asked to do some logistics work until the issue of his third uncle is completely resolved."

"agree."

"I agree."

Everyone agreed, and Boss Tang was demoted to the logistics department.

As luck would have it, the director of logistics had a grudge against him before, and now that Boss Tang was in his hands, naturally he would give him a "good job".

So, Lao Tang was assigned to sweep the toilets, and not just the men's toilets, but also the women's toilets.

"A tiger in dire straits is bullied by a dog." Big Boss Tang sighed, pinching his nose.

"Hey, isn't this Director Tang, carrying a broom? Are you here to experience life at the grassroots level?"

"Look at what you said. There's no Director Tang anymore. You've already done it all."

"That's right. Then, Old Tang, just take your time cleaning here. Revolutionary work is not divided into high and low positions. That's what you told me at the beginning."

After sweeping the toilet for several days in a row, Big Brother Tang would smell like urine every day when he came back. Both brothers Tang Weimin began to feel disgusted with him and walked around him.

This made Big Boss Tang very angry: "I am bullied outside, and now you guys want to make me bully you when I get home."

Then he gave the Tang Weimin brothers a good beating.

Tang Pozi stopped him with a dark face: "Why are you so angry at the child? Go fight them if you have the guts."

"I am now like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats me, and anyone who comes will step on me." The elder Tang Sheng said helplessly: "Now I understand what the world is like."

"It's all the fault of the Qin family and the He family. Sooner or later, I will make them pay the price!"

……

Compared to the gloom and sadness of the Tang family, the He family has completely emerged from the haze of disappointment.

Without Boss Tang's targeting, He Changsheng's work became much easier than usual.

"The new director said that we will wait and see in the second half of the year whether our group has any party membership vacancies. If there are any, he can be my introducer."

That day, He Changsheng brought back good news.

"Really? Does that mean you can finally join the party?" Liu Meixin was also happy for her husband.

Ever since the last incident, He Changsheng has been concentrating on performing well. The new director also noticed his efforts, and since he had just taken over the job, he really needed to train his own people.

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The time came to 1968. He Jiali was already 17 years old and had become a grown-up girl. He Jiawen was already 12 years old and had gradually grown into a graceful young lady. He Jiayi had just turned 6 years old and was very clever and talkative. He could often trick Qin Hao into giving him maltose.

The fourth child, He Jiahuan, was already two years old. He started crawling all over the floor and often got his clothes dirty, causing He Jiayi to be scolded by Liu Meixin for not taking good care of his younger sister.

Qin Hao is already 12 years old. Due to his good development, he looks like a teenager. His height has grown to 1 meters, which is taller than many adults at this age.

He Changsheng was extremely envious of this. He told Qin Hongqi several times when they were drunk that if he could have such a son, he would be willing to shorten his life by ten years.

Qin Hongqi half-jokingly said: "A son-in-law is also half a son, why don't you marry your second daughter to our family."

"That's a good feeling."

Since it was just drunken talk, neither side took it seriously. Instead, Zhou Guilan and Liu Meixin took it particularly seriously.

Zhou Guilan has not been pregnant over the years, probably because she injured her body when she gave birth to her first child. This also made her feel a little regretful that she could not have both a son and a daughter, so she has been very good to the girls in the He family over the years. The one who suited Zhou Guilan's heart the most was He Jiawen.

Needless to say, Liu Meixin looked at Qin Hao with eyes that showed a mother-in-law who was becoming more and more pleased with her son-in-law.

That day, grandmother He took He Jiali and her two sisters to the cooperative to have their clothes tailored. Cloth coupons were very scarce in that era, and the family's combined rations could not make them many new pieces of clothing in a year. Naturally, the clothes could only be worn by the eldest child first, and then passed on to the second child when he grew taller, and so on. If there were many children in the family, the next children would have to wear patched clothes.

Seeing that grandma was going to make clothes for the eldest sister again, the third child He Jiayi got angry and said, "Why does the eldest sister wear new clothes? I want to wear new clothes too."

Grandma He said with a smile: "Your eldest sister is the eldest. If you were born earlier, you would have worn the new clothes."

"Grandma, this is not fair. When my eldest sister doesn't want clothes anymore, she gives them to my second sister. When my second sister doesn't want them anymore, she gives them to me. This way, my eldest sister always wears new clothes, and we can only wear old ones."

Just as He Jiayi was protesting, Qin Hao and Zhou Guilan walked in.

The two families greeted each other with a smile.

"Are these new clothes for Haozi?" asked Grandma He.

Zhou Guilan nodded with a smile: "Yes, she has grown taller now. Last year's clothes no longer fit her. I have no choice but to make new ones."

He Jiayi's face was full of envy: "Brother Qin Hao is still the best. He is the only child in the family, so he is given priority in food and clothing."

Grandma He was both angry and amused: "If that's the case, if your parents only gave birth to your sister, they would have given her all the food, clothing and other expenses, and you would still not have a share."

"Well, it's because my parents both wanted a son. I think the fifth child will definitely be a son this time. Let's have a boy as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we keep having more, we won't have enough food to eat."

Qin Hao hesitated after hearing this. According to the original plot, Liu Meixin was indeed pregnant with a boy, but because Liu Meixin was very strong-willed, she did not reduce her workload during pregnancy, which led to a miscarriage and she lost the baby.

"Forget it, just remind He Changsheng. As for whether he can keep it, it depends on God's will."

After all, he is not a member of the He family, so it is impossible for him to keep an eye on Liu Meixin every day.

"Okay, now that we've measured it, let's make it according to this size." Zhou Guilan said.

Grandma He looked at Qin Hao, who was already much taller than her, with some envy: "Haozi will probably be heading for 1.8 meters in the future."

"It's possible. Boys grow slower than girls. They should be able to grow taller. But they don't need to grow too tall, otherwise it will be difficult for them to find a partner in the future." Zhou Guilan looked at He Jiawen with a smile.

Girls develop earlier than boys, and with the explicit and implicit hints from her mother Liu Meixin, the twelve-year-old He Jiawen already had a vague sense of the differences between boys and girls.

"Brother Qin Hao, you are becoming more and more handsome now."

Qin Hao smiled and rubbed He Jiayi's head: "You are the sweetest person, tell me what you want this time?"

He Jiayi chuckled: "Brother Qin Hao, please judge for me. Grandma is partial. Every time she makes new clothes, she gives them to my eldest sister. Isn't that right?"

"If you want to say that, I'll be fair."

"Tell me, tell me quickly." He Jiayi's face was full of impatience.

"From a family perspective, this is indeed the most cost-effective solution. Of course, even if we don't consider cost-effectiveness as you said, your second sister should be the one to take the lead this time. You still have to wait in line."

He Jiayi puffed his cheeks: "Brother Qin Hao is annoying, I don't like you anymore."

"really?"

"Humph."

"That's a shame. I was planning to buy you a red hairband, but since you don't want it, I'll save it."

He Jiayi's expression changed immediately after hearing this, and she hugged Qin Hao's thigh and acted coquettishly: "Brother Qin Hao, you are the best."

"Okay, I'll buy it for you. Please give me a few red hairbands."

Grandma He said quickly, "How can this be so embarrassing? I'll buy it for you."

Zhou Guilan smiled and said, "It's okay, just let him buy it. A few red hair strings are not worth much money."

"Here, go play."

He Jiayi took the red hairband given by Qin Hao and happily ran to He’s grandmother to show it.

"Here, don't cut your hair so short next time."

He Jiali didn't care, but still took it: "Thank you."

He Jiawen looked at Qin Hao walking towards him, and his cheeks unconsciously turned red.
