The next morning!
Zhou Yang, who stayed up until midnight last night, woke up reluctantly again, got dressed, washed and cooked.
When he packed up and got ready to go out, it was already half past six!
Yesterday and the day before yesterday, the village delivered a total of more than 70,000 kilograms of grain, and only the last 20,000 kilograms were left.
As expected, the task of delivering public rations will be completed this morning, so Zhou Yang is in a very happy mood.
I pushed my father-in-law's bicycle to the brigade headquarters and found that most of the members had already received their tasks and left!
When we came to the warehouse area in the backyard, we saw several village cadres and commune members loading cars from a distance. There were oxen carts and mule carts everywhere in the yard, thirty or forty of them.
Seeing Zhou Yang coming, Li Fengnian, Zhang Genwang and Wang Ping immediately surrounded him.
"It's almost enough to send these cars over. Remember to take the note when you come back!" Li Fengnian said.
"I know, I definitely won't forget such an important thing!" Zhou Yang said.
"In addition, after you pay the public food, go to the food station to have a look. If there are not many people, we will start selling love food in the afternoon!" Li Fengnian said again.
"Okay, we can distribute food to the members after selling out!" Zhou Yang also nodded and said.
Although the food is grown by the members these days, it cannot be distributed freely. It must first ensure that it is given to the state as public food, and then sold as love food to the state, and the rest can be distributed to the members.
Isn't there a saying that protects the country, retains enough of the collective, and the rest belongs to oneself? This is what it means.
To be honest, the ideological consciousness of the people is high now. If you mention this again in the next 20 years, it will be over to see if the people beat you up!
"Comrade Yan Gengdong came to me just now and said that you planned to let him follow you to sell black pigs?" Li Fengnian asked again.
"Well, after all, this is the first time we sell pigs in this way. We need to find someone who can write and calculate to follow us."
Then Zhou Yang said again: "In addition, Yan Gengdong is the director of our pig farm, so it would be perfect for him to follow us!"
"But his identity is really not suitable to be exposed to the public. We can't let the fourth child..."
Before his father-in-law could finish speaking, Zhou Yang shook his head and said, "Not only can my fourth brother not come forward in this matter, but you, dad, can't come forward either! In addition to Yan Gengdong, let Captain Wang or Uncle Gen Wang follow you!"
"Why?"
Zhou Yang was not afraid of other people being present, and immediately said: "The reason is simple, just to avoid suspicion!"
"avoid arousing suspicion?"
"Yes, the director of the meat factory is my fourth brother's father-in-law, your in-laws. Although we are innocent people, after all, we are suspected of being poor."
Then Zhou Yang continued: "So the Li family must not get involved in selling pigs. Even if they are only sold for ten cents a pound, it has nothing to do with us. We just wait for the last cent!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Genwang nodded and said: "Zhou Zhiqing's considerations are reasonable. Some people in the village just like to gossip. After all, this matter involves money, so avoid it if you can!"
Li Fengnian also nodded and said: "That Genwang, you can go with Comrade Yan. Wang Ping still has to keep an eye on the warehouse!"
"OK!"
At this time, Niu Dazhuang came over to report that the car was loaded and ready to go.
Zhou Yang nodded, then spoke to several other village cadres, and set off with the convoy.
However, when the motorcade passed by the village primary school, Zhou Yang immediately asked others to go first, while he turned directly towards the primary school.
At the elementary school, children are already arriving one after another.
Although it is some time before classes begin, the adults at home have to go to work. If there are no elders to watch, the children will be sent to primary school in advance to prevent the children from oversleeping at home alone.
At this time, outside the gate of the primary school, a group of children were gathering together, not knowing what was going on.
Zhou Yang walked over immediately and saw these children surrounding Yan Wenhui.
From time to time there was a burst of ridicule from the crowd, and the words were quite unpleasant.
Yan Wenhui stood there without saying a word, neither defensive nor angry.
His body was as straight as a cypress, and the expression on his face was very indifferent, as if these children were not talking about him.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yang couldn't help but nodded.
No wonder this child will have such great achievements in the future. This kind of self-cultivation alone is not something that an ordinary six or seven-year-old child can have.
"What are you doing?"
The children were startled when they heard Zhou Yang's voice.
When they found out it was Zhou Yang, they all looked at him timidly, not daring to express their anger.
After Zhou Yang parked his bicycle, he waved to Yan Wenhui.
"Uncle Zhou!"
"Well, is Teacher Wang here?"
"Come on, Teacher Wang will usually be here at half past six!" one child replied.
Zhou Yang nodded and said, "Okay, let's all go into the classroom!"
Then, he took Yan Wenhui into the school.
In the simple office of the primary school, Wang Pingan is sorting out lesson plans.
Although he only teaches some primary school students now, it is quite challenging for him to teach five grades by himself, and he must prepare lesson plans in advance.
As a new teacher in the school, he also wants to make some achievements.
After all, all the schools in the Solidarity Commune organize unified examinations every year. If the students he teaches can get good results, it will bring glory to his face.
At this moment, he inadvertently looked up and saw Zhou Yang coming, leading a furry child.
Take a closer look and you will see that this is the son of Comrade Yan from the pig farm!
At that moment, Wang Ping'an immediately came over from the office.
"Zhou Zhiqing, why do you have time to come over?" Wang Ping'an asked with a hint of surprise.
"For the sake of this child's schooling, I came here to talk to you!" Zhou Yang said.
"Oh, let's go in and talk?"
Wang Pingan pointed to the office and said.
"No, I have to go to the commune later, so I can just say it here!"
Then Zhou Yang said again: "Comrade Ping'an, you should also know about this child's situation. We can't control the status, but I hope that every child in Babaoliang Village should be able to go to school, and not because of his status." Just keep a child out of school."
"At the same time, I also hope that the school will be a pure land, and children will not be allowed to bring in the messy things from outside."
"Well, I understand!" Wang Ping'an said immediately.
"I'll leave this child to you. Don't let those children in the village bully others, let alone let them act recklessly every day!" Zhou Yang said.
"Okay, I will take care of this!"
"In addition, I have found many children still working in the fields these days. Are there any children who have not come to school?" Zhou Yang asked again.
"Well, I have already investigated this matter. There are 11 children between the ages of six and ten in our village who have not come to school. They are all from relatively difficult families!" Wang Ping'an said.
"How many families are there? You make a list and send it to the brigade headquarters. I will discuss this matter with the captains later. What if such older children don't study?" Zhou Yang said.
"Okay, I'll send him there after school today!"
Zhou Yang nodded, and then shouted to the classroom: "Huzi, come out!"
Hearing Zhou Yang's voice, Li Hu ran out immediately.
"Uncle, did you call me?"
Zhou Yang nodded, then pointed at Yan Wenhui and said, "This is your uncle Yan's son. He will also go to school in the future. Don't let others bully him. Can you do that?"
"able!"
"Okay, you two go in!"
"OK!"
After saying that, Li Hu took Yan Wenhui into the classroom!
Zhou Yang said a few words to Wang Ping'an before leaving the elementary school.
PS: I really wanted to send you the photos of Lao Cang’s school when he was a student, but unfortunately I couldn’t find them. Our school at that time had only three shabby buildings, one large and one small. On the left was the classroom. The first to fourth grade students were all in the same classroom. The fifth grade students had to go to the countryside to study, so there was no school. A small room of less than five square meters in the middle is the teacher's office. I was most afraid of the teacher calling it "office", which is a shadow of my childhood. The room on the far right is used to store sundries, mainly carbon and firewood for the children. Yes, we have to take these ourselves!
