This time, the way Captain Zhou looked at Xia Yao completely changed.
He touched the newly shaved stubble on his chin and nodded thoughtfully: "You are right. Starting from these aspects, we can indeed screen out most of the people with evil intentions."
When Xia Yao heard these words, he knew that his plan was half successful. The rest depends on Captain Zhou going to the commune to persuade the commune leaders.
Her beautiful peach blossom eyes widened, and she did not shy away from Captain Zhou's suspicious gaze: "Captain, with your words, I feel relieved. I don't want this quota, and I don't want this quota to fall to those who use it." In the hands of people with unfair means! Such a good opportunity should be reserved for those who are truly worthy of it, not those who are young."
After saying these words, Captain Zhou changed his usual prejudice against Xia Yao.
He nodded: "That's true. I didn't expect you to have such a high level of consciousness."
You know, Xia Yao used to talk about the word "death" at every turn, and used her connections in the provincial capital to threaten people.
Xia Yao's face turned red. Although it wasn't her, in everyone's eyes, this was what she did.
She lowered her head: "Captain, don't worry, I will definitely keep your teachings in mind. Those things in the past will never happen again."
"Good boy." Captain Zhou looked at Xia Yao at this time, and finally had a softer tone, "As long as you stay in our Qingshui Brigade honestly, you will be absolutely indispensable for food and clothing. How can you go back to the city like that?" Feeling better?"
Obviously, Captain Zhou also knew about Xia Yao's life experience.
Xia Yao's face showed the perfect expression of despair. She lowered her head and was speechless for a while.
Captain Zhou realized that he had said the wrong thing, smiled coquettishly, and quickly changed the subject: "Your aunt picked up a lot of eggs a few days ago. I will bring some back to you, and also to replenish the health of Dabao and Xiaobao."
Of course Xia Yao refused, but Captain Zhou's attitude was very tough: "If you think highly of me, take these eggs back! We don't lack these eggs at home!"
Captain Zhou forcefully handed the egg to Xia Yao. Seeing Xia Yao run away with the egg in his hands, he sighed heavily.
If Xia Yao and Lu Jing were a normal couple, he would definitely let Xia Yao persuade Lu Jing more.
only……
Captain Zhou sighed again.
The weirdness between Xia Yao and Lu Jing was something that even an outsider like him could see, so it was hard to tell Xia Yao about Lu Jing's things.
The smile that had just returned to Captain Zhou's face now turned into a frown.
As soon as he came out of Captain Zhou's house, Xia Yao bumped into two uninvited guests. They were Xia Qingqing and Xu Chenghai, a couple who had been making plans in the mountains just now.
When Xia Yao saw the two of them, he didn't look away and regarded them as nothing.
"distant!"
The first person to speak was Xu Chenghai.
Xia Qingqing clenched her fists bitterly, but followed Xu Chenghai and shouted: "Yaoyao! Wait!"
After she said this, she hurried to Xia Yao's side and wanted to grab Xia Yao's hand.
Xia Yao quickly waved his hand, as if he regarded Xia Qingqing as a savage beast that he couldn't avoid, and the disgust in his eyes almost overflowed.
Xia Qingqing could hardly keep the smile on her face. She took a deep breath: "Yaoyao, don't lose your temper. We have something serious to tell you! Do you know the workers, peasants and soldiers college students?"
Speaking of this, Xia Qingqing had an idea in her mind, and she grabbed Xia Yao's hand with great strength: "Why are you here, Captain Zhou? Are you here for the quota of workers, peasants and soldiers college students?"
"Yaoyao, why are you so anxious! We will take care of these things for you!"
"Are you crazy?"
Xia Yao held Xia Qingqing's hand and used all her strength. When Xia Qingqing cried out in pain, she threw away Xia Qingqing's hand.
"What are the quotas for workers, peasants and soldiers college students?" Xia Yao's beautiful face was full of dissatisfaction, "Is this what you want to do? I, Xia Yao, sit upright, what if I came to see Captain Zhou today? If you want me to get this quota because of my connections, then let me be beaten to death by the wild boar in the back mountain!"
"Xia Qingqing, Xu Chenghai, do you dare?"
Xia Yao's eyes were like sharp daggers, piercing their hearts.
Xu Chenghai stepped forward anxiously: "Yaoyao, we are not doing it for ourselves! We are doing it for you! Don't you want to go back to the city?"
"I don't want to." Xia Yao snorted coldly, threw down these two words, and left without looking back.
Xia Qingqing stopped Xu Chenghai who was about to catch up with Xia Yao. She stretched out her hand and took Xu Chenghai's arm: "Brother Chenghai, Yaoyao is still angry, don't worry! When she realizes that we are really here for her, She will change her mind."
"The thing that Yuanyuan wants most is to return to the city. The most important thing for us now is also this matter."
Xia Qingqing spoke softly, which was in sharp contrast to the perverse Xia Yao. The fascination with Xia Yao's appearance completely dissipated in Xu Chenghai's eyes.
"Okay." He nodded and held Xia Qingqing's hand firmly, "When this matter is settled, we will return to the city."
Xia Qingqing smiled contentedly.
…
county seat.
Lu Jing was holding an earthen pot in his hand, looking a little strange. The red armband on the road became wary when he saw his appearance.
"For what?"
After being stopped, Lu Jing opened the jar and said, "Give some chicken soup to your relatives."
His face was cold and his voice was even colder, but apart from the hot pot of chicken soup, there was indeed nothing suspicious about him. Hong Armband only hesitated for a moment before letting Lu Jing leave.
No one wants to buy something like chicken soup.
In the dilapidated small courtyard, a few men with sly eyebrows pulled at the crumbling wall and stared at the grandfather and grandson inside.
"I heard that he used to be a big landowner, so there must be many treasures in his family!"
"Haven't they all been confiscated?"
"The landlords are evil, how can they not spare a hand?"
The leader sneered, pulled up his sleeves twice, and was about to jump in.
But at this moment, his leg was grabbed by someone.
Then the world started spinning, and by the time he reacted, the person was already lying on the ground.
"You...you, who are you?" He looked at the tall man who appeared in front of him with stars in his eyes. "You are helping bad elements! I'm going to report you to the Revolutionary Committee!"
He mumbled a warning and wanted to rush forward to give Lu Jing a good look, but as soon as he made a move, he was caught by his companions.
"It's Lu Jing!"
"You don't want your life?"
At most, they were doing some petty theft, but the man in front of them was really desperate for his life!
