Originally, because of this incident, the people from the Red River Brigade were ashamed of several nearby brigades, and everyone was full of pent-up emotions; as a result, the team did not have any awards for advanced brigade and individuals, and a year's hard work was ruined. The people from the Red River Brigade became even more dissatisfied with their team leader Xiang.

Many people ran to Captain Xiang's house to make trouble.

Captain Xiang was so busy that he looked several years older. He used years of pent-up pressure to send the people away.

The commune leaders asked Team Leader Xiang to conduct an in-depth self-examination on his personal style and social atmosphere, and asked him to go to the commune to study.

Ji Qinglan didn't care about these things. He took Luo Hongyu to practice martial arts every day and treated her to delicious meals three times a day, making Luo Hongyu's face round.

Luo Hongyu stayed at Ji Qinglan's house for five days, feeling both miserable and happy. Every time she was beaten by her godmother, she cried, and then her godmother would coax her with all kinds of delicious food. On the sixth day, when she saw Director Luo coming to pick her up, she cried with joy. She had never been so looking forward to her father as she was at that moment.

Director Luo touched his head. He didn't expect that his daughter missed him so much after only five days of absence.

It turns out that the little cotton-padded jacket is the most caring.

When leaving, Ji Qinglan gave Luo Hongyu two boxes of chocolates and a piece of goose yellow cloth for her to make clothes, saying that he brought them back from the capital. Luo Hongyu did not doubt it and took them home happily. Her godmother had said long ago that as long as she practiced martial arts well, she would give her a piece of cloth to make clothes.

It is already the twelfth lunar month and the weather is getting colder day by day. Two days of heavy snow have covered the earth with a layer of silver.

That day, Secretary Zhang went to the commune and brought back an old man who was covered in dust and ragged clothes.

He was from the Jianzhang Brigade next door, and lived in the cowshed. As a result of the heavy snow and cold weather for several days, two of the three people originally in the cowshed died of illness overnight, leaving only this man. A fire broke out in the cowshed late at night the night before yesterday, burning the cowshed to the ground, and one of the five cows in it also died.

The team leader was so angry that he beat the man up. He went to the commune before dawn the next day to report the incident and demanded that he be driven away at all costs. This man was really a troublemaker. In the past two years, the team held meetings during the day, and he fed herbs to the cows and pigs in the team at night, causing the pigs to have diarrhea and develop red rashes. He also made the cows lie on the ground unable to get up, causing several young and strong men in the team to pull plows to plow the fields and become as tired as cows.

The people in the team were scared to death. They hung him up and beat him, tied him up and locked him up for three days and three nights. After they let him go, he was still a thief and stole sweet potatoes from the fields in the middle of the night. The people in the team caught him again and beat him to vent their anger. Then they roasted and ate a two-month-old piglet.

Gradually, the people on the team realized that this guy could not be beaten or scolded and was a rebellious person.

In the past two years, the supervision from above has not been so strict, so the people on the team no longer make things difficult for them. They assign them some easy tasks, and they become more obedient.

But it snowed heavily this year, and two of them fell ill and never recovered. One windy and snowy night, both of them passed away, leaving only Old Li.

Old Li was also tough and directly set fire to the cowshed. As a result, no one was hurt, but one cow was burned to death.

The cattle were an important property of the brigade. The captain of the Jianzhang Brigade was so angry that he cried. He dragged the people to the commune and said he didn't want them anymore.

The commune leaders were also troubled by this person and were thinking about how to accommodate him. Secretary Zhang happened to come over to submit the materials. When the commune leaders saw him, their eyes lit up.

The Red River Brigade is registered with him, so it's a good opportunity for him to take his men back and atone for his sins!

So, Secretary Zhang took the person back with a frustrated look on his face.

Ji Qinglan didn't know about this at first. She stayed in the house and lived her own life. She didn't know many people in the village and didn't go out to show off. It was not until Liu Yumei came to chat with her that she told her about her father-in-law bringing someone back with a gloomy face.

It's funny to say that Secretary Zhang was afraid that Old Li would burn down the cowshed in the village, so he gave Professor Han and his team two kilograms of rice for the first time, asking them to keep an eye on it and persuade them.

In short, don't cause trouble.

Ji Qinglan laughed. Two kilograms of rice might not impress them. With Han Yuanjun feeding them, they were living a good life.

Han Yuanjun should have brought back a lot of money. During the days since she came back, Han Yuanjun came to her twice to buy supplies, including a lot of brown sugar, milk powder, white rice and millet.

Secretary Zhang's two kilograms of rice are really...

It's also a thoughtful gesture.

As a result, this person just couldn't be scolded, so Han Yuanjun came to find him in the evening.

"Buy medicine?" Ji Qinglan looked at Han Yuanjun and asked curiously.

"Well, Mr. Li is very ill. He has been having a fever since the day before yesterday. My grandfather was afraid that something had happened to him, so he asked me to get some medicine, but it was useless. I thought of the medicine you gave me last time, so I shamelessly came here." Han Yuanjun said embarrassedly. He had no choice. The antipyretic drugs he bought from the county town were useless. The medicine given by Ji Qinglan was the most effective.

Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Ji Qinglan did not refuse. When he returned to the house, he actually took out two bags of food from the space for Han Yuanjun, and also gave him a can of milk powder, five pounds of meat and some millet.

"The old man's health was not good to begin with, so I'll give him these to replenish his body. Apart from these, I think he has made up his mind to die, so we still need to persuade him."

Han Yuanjun nodded and understood. His grandfather and others had tried to persuade him these days, but unfortunately Mr. Li just wouldn't listen and just kept his eyes open without saying a word.

"The darkness will eventually pass and dawn is just around the corner. We have endured all these years, so don't fall on the threshold of dawn." Ji Qinglan said. She remembered very clearly that the college entrance examination would be resumed in four years, and these people would be rehabilitated one after another.

Han Yuanjun was stunned for a moment and asked, "The darkness will pass, is it true?"

"Really, you should have felt the subtle changes when you went back this time!" Ji Qinglan nodded affirmatively.

Private transactions were not allowed in the past, but free markets exist everywhere in the capital. It should not be called a black market, but a place for exchanging idle items.

Of course Han Yuanjun could feel it. When he first accompanied his grandfather here, life was really difficult. His body and mind were in agony. He didn't know if he could see the sun tomorrow even if he fell asleep.

They all persist in living based on the beliefs in their hearts.

Faith is the flame of hope.

Han Yuanjun thought that Ji Qinglan knew some inside information because of his relationship with Peng Guodong, so he went back excitedly.

Ji Qinglan looked at her receding back, not knowing whether what he said was good or bad.

However, thinking that the college entrance examination would be resumed in four years, she thought she should prepare in advance and get herself a set of junior high school textbooks first.

After six years in the countryside, I have returned all the knowledge I learned to my teachers.

After taking the medicine, Old Man Li's fever went down and he became very quiet. He behaved well in the cowshed and didn't do anything out of the ordinary.

Secretary Zhang finally felt relieved after knowing this. In the past, the cowshed was managed by Captain Xiang. Ever since the incident with Xiang Lanlan, the commune leaders were very dissatisfied with Captain Xiang. Captain Xiang went to the commune to study every day, and most of the village affairs fell on Secretary Zhang's head.

Secretary Zhang had no requirements for the people in the cowshed, nor did he inspect them every day. He just asked them to take good care of the animals.

In the afternoon, Liu Yumei brought her daughter to Ji's house to do needlework together.

There was a kang in the house, and Ji Qinglan also placed a coal stove in the room. The two of them didn't feel cold at all sitting around the stove. Nini and Xincheng took off their coats and played on the bed, their little faces flushed.
