Chapter 205: Free from Official Duty
Come out from the garbage dump of all worlds.

Liu Qingsong was about to go to the toilet when he heard Liu Lijuan's voice at the door: "Qingsong, Qingsong...are you home?"

"I'm here!" Liu Qingsong hurriedly walked towards the door.

At the gate, Liu Lijuan was parking a 28-meter bicycle. When she saw Liu Qingsong coming out, she asked, "I heard from Uncle Wang that my parents have left with Sixth Grandpa and the others?"

"Yeah," Liu Qingsong nodded.

"Then why didn't you notify me?" Liu Lijuan complained.

After all, my parents have left this time, and we don’t know when they will come back!

"The problem is that they left in such a hurry that they didn't even have dinner!" Liu Qingsong replied with a wry smile.

If possible, he would also like his second and eldest sisters to come and see him off, but the problem is that the reality does not allow it!
"Is that so?" Liu Lijuan sighed softly, "Then I won't talk to you anymore. Get some clothes to change and go to the clinic to continue taking care of Wang Qing."

"Is Brother Wang okay?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"Much better." Liu Lijuan walked into the door: "By the way! That Liu Hang also personally discussed the stall matter with him. If nothing goes wrong, after the Lantern Festival, three stalls in good locations will be his, and the other five will be yours."

“Five of them are mine?” Liu Qingsong was stunned.

This Liu Hang, it seems like he didn’t ask for any stall?

"Why... you don't believe it?" Liu Lijuan looked at Liu Qingsong and smiled: "I didn't believe it at the time either, but later I found out that Liu Hang wanted you to help deal with Qin An and Du Xincheng, so he was so generous."

"So you agree?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"How could I make the decision on my own and give you a promise? But I know you won't refuse." Liu Lijuan replied seriously, "Because what Liu Hang said makes sense. We are all enemies of Qin An and Du Xincheng, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so you shouldn't refuse Liu Hang's offer to give you a stall."

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong smiled awkwardly.

This time my second sister guessed it right.

If he could join forces with Liu Hang, it would be very beneficial for him.

So why not take over the stall with a good location?
As soon as this thought came to mind, he was about to ask Liu Lijuan to arrange a time with Liu Hang to sit down and have a good chat, but Wang Yaoqing's voice came from the grain drying field: "Qingsong, Qingsong... come here."

"Oh, here I come! Here I come!" Liu Qingsong said to Liu Lijuan, turned around and walked towards the threshing ground.

Secretary Chen also came to the threshing ground, accompanied by a young, baby-faced girl.

This baby-faced girl Liu Qingsong looked familiar, but he couldn't remember her name.

Secretary Chen smiled and introduced: "Qingsong, this is your cousin Liu Qinghua. You may not remember who she is, but you should know her father Liu Huaxi."

"Oh!" Liu Qingsong suddenly realized.

Liu Huaxi and my father were cousins, and they moved to the city to settle down in 1972. At that time, Liu Qinghua was still a little dwarf! I didn't expect that after just a few years, she had grown into a big girl. This was really a bit unexpected.

"I brought Liu Qinghua here today! I don't have any other intentions. I just want her to get familiar with the environment of the Huaishu production team with you, and make corresponding preparations for taking over the position of team leader." Secretary Chen saw that Liu Qingsong remembered who Liu Qinghua was, and immediately added another sentence.

Wang Yaoqing was furious when he heard this: "Secretary Chen, what did you say? Let Liu Qinghua take over the position of team leader?"

If only.

Then he will quit his job as an accountant.

I couldn't understand why the leaders above wanted to replace Liu Qingsong, the team leader.

But Liu Qingsong was not surprised at all when he heard this. After all, Secretary Chen had already told him this before, so after smiling, he said, "Okay! I will take my cousin to get familiar with the environment of the Huaishu production team and try to hand over the relevant work before dinner today."

"Then we have my old cousin." Liu Qinghua was so surprised to see Liu Qingsong was so easy to talk to that she even stretched out her right hand.

"It's my duty." Liu Qingsong stretched out his hand and shook hands with Liu Qinghua, then led them up the mountain path to familiarize themselves with the situation of the Huaishu Production Team.

This made Wang Yaoqing extremely anxious. He wanted to catch up but was stopped by Secretary Chen: "Don't you realize that Qingsong himself doesn't want to be the team leader anymore?"

"This kid is full of pride. We should curb his arrogance, otherwise he will become more and more arrogant in the future."

"But..." Wang Yaoqing hesitated to speak.

For him, shouldn’t someone as capable as Liu Qingsong have pride?
"No buts, just cooperate with Liu Qinghua in the future." Secretary Chen patted Wang Yaoqing on the shoulder: "I specially transferred her from the government unit. Her management level is very high!"

"Let's go! Let's go! Take me to see Xiao Xiao first."

"See how the kid is doing."

"Okay!" Wang Yaoqing had no choice but to take Secretary Chen to the main room where Ye Xiaoxiao was.

After a moment, they came out.

I felt relieved too.

It turned out that Ye Xiaoxiao had woken up.

He was eating the fried fish and glutinous rice cake given by his youngest sister with big mouthfuls.

Secretary Chen saw that he had completed his mission for the Huaishu Production Team today and was about to leave to take care of other things, but Liu Qinghua came over with a smile on her face, holding the seal of the Huaishu Production Team.

"Where is Qingsong?" Secretary Chen was stunned and went to greet him.

Wang Yaoqing also followed behind in confusion.

How come two people went together to familiarize themselves with the environment, but in the end only one person came back?
"Qingsong has gone out for something. Besides, I was born and raised in Huaishu Production Team. I am not familiar with this environment." Liu Qinghua replied with a smile: "Secretary, I can take over the work of the entire Huaishu Production Team now, and I will definitely do a better job than Liu Qingsong."

"Accountant Wang, if you don't have anything else to do, please get the team's account books for me to check." After a pause, Liu Qinghua added.

"This..." Wang Yaoqing frowned.

Checking the accounts right away, is this the first of the three things a new official will do after taking office going to be him?

"Go! Go get the account book." Secretary Chen also felt that Liu Qinghua's approach was inappropriate, but he also didn't want to dampen Liu Qinghua's enthusiasm, so he waved at Wang Yaoqing.

And he believed it too.

As the time spent together increases.

Wang Yaoqing will work with Liu Qinghua to manage the Huaishu production team.

After all, Liu Qinghua is not an outsider, but a member of the Liu family who has walked out.

"Okay! I'll go get the account book." For Secretary Chen's sake, Wang Yaoqing turned around and left.

Secretary Chen watched Wang Yaoqing leave and said, "Qinghua, did you have an unpleasant argument with Qingsong just now? Why did you come here in such a short time?"

He couldn't ask this in front of Wang Yaoqing.

But now Wang Yaoqing is gone.

Then you must ask clearly.

After all, in his mind, Liu Qingsong is much more important than Liu Qinghua.

"No, Qingsong and I were chatting and laughing, and he also told me a lot of things that Huaishu Production Brigade needs to pay attention to." Liu Qinghua replied: "But I was very annoyed, so I interrupted him in the end."

"Then I got the official seal back."

"What?" Secretary Chen frowned.

Doesn't this mean that you don't take your cousin Liu Qingsong seriously?

"Secretary, don't have that expression. I was in charge of seven or eight hundred people in my previous unit. I can manage this small locust tree production team with my eyes closed. You can rest assured." Liu Qinghua said confidently.

"Okay! Okay!" Secretary Chen wanted to say a few words about Liu Qinghua, but in the end he kept silent.

After all, it was he who invited Liu Qinghua to take over Liu Qingsong's position as the leader of the Huaishu production team. Now that Liu Qinghua is so confident, he should support her instead of pouring cold water on her.

If something unexpected happens at that time.

It’s not too late for him to speak out again and say something about Liu Qinghua.

Seeing Wang Yaoqing coming over, he took Liu Qinghua over with him.

……

Liu Qingsong is here.

After handing over the seal of the Huaishu Production Team, he went straight home to the backyard to see the chickens and piglets.

Seeing that everything was fine, he took Xiao Nuomi and Xiao Taoqi to Pangdun's house to visit Ye Xiaoxiao.

I saw that Ye Xiaoxiao could eat, sleep, talk and laugh.

After thinking about it, he took Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi and Yaomei to the river to fish.

When I was a team leader, I didn’t have time to go fishing.

Now that he is no longer the team leader, Liu Qingsong feels that he has plenty of time to do whatever he wants.

Of course, the most important thing is that there are not many wild croakers at home, so we must catch some and bring them back. Otherwise, we can't satisfy the appetites of these little foodies.

By the way, there is also the element-devouring beast Xiaojuzi.

Ever since he tasted the deliciousness of wild croaker, he must have two fried croakers for every meal. If he didn’t have any, he would even make a fuss with Liu Qingsong.

Liu Qingsong had no choice but to go to the river to fish to shut Xiaojuzi's mouth.

The riverside was still a little cold at the beginning of the year, and the cold wind made the river water ripple.

But Liu Qingsong ignored all that. After lighting a bonfire, he picked up his homemade fishing rod, put on bait and started fishing.

Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi and Yaomei also brought fishing rods this time, so Liu Qingsong didn't need to tell them anything. They just sat on small stools and started putting on baits.

After that, he threw the fishing hook into the river.

Because the bait was brought from the garbage dump of the universe, it didn't take long for wild carp to take the bait.

This made the three little ones extremely happy, and for a while the river bank was filled with their laughter.

Liu Qingsong sat aside, watching quietly, fishing quietly, and putting the hooked fish into the fish basket quietly.

Just when I felt that rebirth was the most pleasant thing of the day, I heard a woman's scolding and Wang Yaoqing's voice trying to stop the fight at the door of Pangdun's house.

Liu Qinghua also tried to mediate the fight.

However, as Liu Qinghua was trying to persuade him, she was scolded.

As for the reason, it was obviously because I said the wrong thing.

After Liu Qingsong understood it, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

In fact, he knew from the beginning that Liu Qinghua would not be the team leader for long, after all, his social experience was there.

But now there are conflicts with the villagers. To be honest, it is really unexpected.

In order to avoid Liu Qinghua coming over to help mediate the fight, Liu Qingsong took a look at the catch in the fish basket, and saw dozens of wild croakers and two grass carps. He immediately said to Yaomei, Xiao Nuomi, and Xiao Taoqi, "Let's go home and have boiled fish tonight."

"Yeah, yeah, and there's also delicious pork." Little Nuomi agreed, then put away the fishing rods with Yaomei and Xiaotaoqi.

Liu Qingsong was holding a fish basket.

Then drain the water inside.

After it's healed.

Just as he was about to pick up the three little guys and take them home, Ye Xiaoxiao appeared quickly with Xiaoju in his arms: "Brother, how many fish did you catch?"

"Not many, just a few dozen. Why are you here? Don't you know that the cold wind from the river is not good for a patient like you?" Liu Qingsong frowned as he looked at Ye Xiaoxiao who was walking towards him.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll be back soon." Ye Xiaoxiao said, "Brother, the new team leader asked me to call you back to help mediate the fight. She's crying because of the scolding."

"Haha...it's none of my business if she gets scolded and cries." Liu Qingsong couldn't help laughing when he heard that: "You are such a fool. Why do you like to meddle in other people's business?"

"But...but she said she was your cousin!" Ye Xiaoxiao reminded.

"If she's my cousin, I won't try to stop the fight." Liu Qingsong picked up the fish in his fish basket and walked towards the door of his house: "Xiaoxiao, go back and tell Liu Qinghua that I'm not at the riverside. I don't know where I went."

"Oh, okay!" Ye Xiaoxiao then realized that Liu Qingsong seemed to have some opinion about Liu Qinghua, so after nodding, she turned around and went back.

Because there is something exciting to watch.

The youngest sister said something to Liu Qingsong, and Xiao Nuomi and Xiao Taoqi followed behind.

……

Fatty’s house, in the threshing ground at the gate.

At this time, the place was already surrounded by villagers who came to watch the fun.

Among them, Wang Yaoqing, Liu Qinghua and an old woman who was cursing were surrounded in the middle.

But none of the villagers who were watching the fun said anything bad about the old woman. Instead, they pointed fingers at Liu Qinghua and Wang Yaoqing.

The reason for this is that the incident was caused by Liu Qinghua. She had just taken over as the team leader and wanted the old woman to set an example and return the benefits that Liu Qingsong had previously given her.

As for what benefits.

It is related to caring for the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled in the team.

But Liu Qinghua thought that these old, weak, sick and disabled people did not work but received a welfare of more than ten yuan a month, which was obviously against the rules, so she asked Wang Yaoqing to ask the old woman to come out and talk to her representative.

Naturally, something went wrong after this conversation.

After all, the old, weak, sick and disabled people in the Huaishu production team rely on the dozen yuan of welfare given by Liu Qingsong every month to survive. What's more, this money is not paid by the team, but is agreed upon by Liu Qingsong and everyone, and is deducted from the proceeds from the sale of pepper and game.

The purpose is to ensure that everyone can have enough food to eat.

The poor will not die in poverty, nor the rich will die in wealth.

Liu Qinghua had just taken office and he was about to touch the interests of the elderly, the weak and the disabled. Who else could they be angry with if not Liu Qinghua?
Of course, Wang Yaoqing had advised Liu Qinghua not to do this before.

After all, doing something offensive as soon as he arrived is not the emotional intelligence that a team captain should have.

But Liu Qinghua didn't listen! She thought that if she wanted to manage the Huaishu production team well, everything had to be done according to the rules.

And now she is the team leader of the production team, so everything must be done according to her.

Wang Yaoqing had no choice but to do as he was told.

The result is predictable, I was scolded directly.

Seeing that the old woman was still cursing and other villagers were also pointing fingers at Liu Qinghua, Wang Yaoqing had no choice but to whisper a few words to Liu Qinghua and then go find Liu Qingsong in person.

Inside the kitchen.

Liu Qingsong is processing wild carp.

Seeing Wang Yaoqing coming over, he smiled, washed his hands and went to greet him: "Uncle Wang, you came at the right time. I caught a lot of croakers today. You can take a few back to eat later."

"I'm not in the mood to eat fish right now!" Wang Yaoqing replied with a headache: "Didn't you hear the widow Wu in our team scolding Liu Qinghua? Hurry up, go and persuade the widow Wu, stop her scolding."

"The question is, can I persuade her?" Liu Qingsong shook his head in amusement. "Besides, I'm not the team leader anymore. Why should I persuade Widow Wu?"

"You..." Wang Yaoqing pointed at Liu Qingsong and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Uncle, I am not in charge of my own affairs right now, so please don't bother me." Liu Qingsong squatted down and continued to deal with Diao Ziyu: "And don't you realize that this Liu Qinghua is arrogant and proud? If we don't give her a little frustration, she will definitely be arrogant to us in the future."

"That's true." Wang Yaoqing nodded. In order to avoid being scolded by other villagers, he rolled up his sleeves and helped scrape the fish scales: "Qingsong, tell me the truth, why do you want to resign as the captain of the team for no reason?"

"Because the Ye family wanted me to study abroad for three years and then work in the system, I didn't agree, so..."

Before Liu Qingsong could finish his words, he was interrupted by the resentful voice of Widow Wu: "Qingsong, please tell me whether Liu Qinghua is bullying or not."

Liu Qingsong looked up at Widow Wu.

Seeing that the widow Wu was followed by Liu Qinghua who was scolded and crying, and dozens of other villagers who were watching the fun, he shook his head in annoyance: "Aunt Wu, I am not the team leader now. If you want to find someone to judge the matter, you can go to Secretary Chen."

The implication is that Liu Qinghua was assigned to the Huaishu production team by Secretary Chen, so if anything happened, she should naturally look for Secretary Chen.

Liu Qinghua was stunned and heard it. She cried, "Liu Qingsong, don't try to smooth things over. If it weren't for the mess you left behind, would I be so passive?"

"The mess I left behind?" Liu Qingsong shook his head in amusement: "Then come with me, I'll show you what a mess it is and why I have to give Aunt Wu these ten yuan a month in benefits."

Done.

Liu Qingsong washed his hands.

He took Liu Qinghua and walked towards Widow Wu's house.

Seeing this, the other villagers who came to watch the fun all followed behind.

Soon they arrived in front of a thatched house built with southern bamboo.

The thatched hut was drafty on all sides, and six children of different sizes were sitting on the wooden bed.

All of these children were pale and skinny, some had disabilities in their hands and feet, the oldest seemed to be only eight or nine years old, and the youngest was still sitting in a cradle and drinking milk.

When they saw Liu Qingsong appearing at their door with so many people, they all hid away in fear.

"This...what is going on?" Liu Qinghua looked at the children in surprise, then turned to ask Liu Qingsong.
