My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 34 You Are Really Stingy

Tax gate guards and security guards are actually often interviewed.

Various official news about the tax system were reported, and from time to time reporters from the TV station across the street would come over and pose to film a segment.

Maybe the first time I was curious and excited about what would happen if I bought a TV.

It just flashed by after reading it, and no one ever cared about what the news about this kind of ZZ mission was about.

Even the tax compound itself doesn't care and just asks the security guards to fool people. The TV station just wants to complete the task and anyone can do it.

Later, any self-media outlet that came out of nowhere would also use their cell phones to interview passersby about things happening at the primary school next door or what was happening at the tax bureau.

In Weidong's mind, the idea of ​​journalist interviews was completely demystified.

Especially later, the public opinion that journalism major is rubbish made him care even less.

He was willing to come because the other party spoke the local dialect and didn't sound too domineering, so he reluctantly agreed.

It feels like a tabloid like self-media.

Forty years later, many people no longer know what Sunshine Daily means.

Weidong really didn't know that Sunshine Daily was a top central newspaper. Even if the tax system subscribed to a lot of newspapers, who would read them?

Then each central newspaper also has its own affiliation, and its status changes from time to time.

This newspaper was confirmed to be directly led and hosted by D only last year and is the D newspaper of this period.

This kind of large newspaper has branches all over the country, and in addition to its ordinary newspaper work, it also performs very important news supervision duties.

Later media outlets lost this mission, but they still performed their duties diligently in the 1980s.

A lot of real information at the grassroots level is reported by various news organizations.

Therefore, when recruiting and selecting personnel, in principle, local people who can connect with the people are often deliberately chosen.

Yu Songhai joined the army as a cultural and arts soldier in a county near Shangzhou, then transferred to a civilian cadre and went to the snowy area to support the border areas. After returning, he became a reporter at the provincial capital branch, and naturally he was in charge of information in this area.

His resume is just a poor background, but he actually has a lot of room for development.

If you don't rely on connections, you need to have solid performance that you can show off.

He came to Wanshang Trading Company because the local informant mentioned that it was a collision of reforms and he thought it was a good topic.

I didn't expect to meet such a young man.

I couldn't wait to leave immediately: "Can I take a picture of you?"

Weidong firmly disagreed and even checked to see if the other party had any recordings. "I'm taking a risk even if I say this to you. Why should I just quietly follow them selling cameras and other things? Why do I have to get involved in this mess? Backward-looking areas like this are just waiting for advanced and developed countries to teach them a lesson. Why should I get involved in this?"

His line of thought compelled Yu Songhai to take a few more glances, eager to memorize the information revealed beyond the mask. "You possess both a chivalrous spirit and a calm and pragmatic sense of safety. That's truly remarkable. This is my business card. You can contact me anytime, anywhere, for anything. I'm sure we'll have many more interactions. Also, please be sure to contact me after the Spring Festival when the camera issue is finalized. We at Sunshine Daily can also promote new products and support this exemplary reform."

Wei Dong was shocked. Oh, isn't this just advertising? Okay, okay. "Okay, it's a deal. I'll contact you when the product comes out. Please don't make too much of what I said. It's better for us to do things in a down-to-earth manner."

Yu Songhai smiled and said, "That's not up to you," but he habitually said "hmm", said goodbye and left.

Wei Dong was so petty that he accompanied him all the way to the dock, fearing that this guy would turn around and report him.

As a result, I turned around and saw Dong Xueying standing on the stone steps with her child in her arms, like a woman waiting for her husband.

He did not go back along the stone steps along the river bank, but went to the freight yard next to him to find the master and ask him about his feelings after his first long-distance self-driving trip.

The master didn't ask him where he got the car from, and taught him carefully while they were having dinner.

He hadn't actually driven long distances of more than a few hundred kilometers, but he did have extensive experience with the surrounding mountain roads and was very knowledgeable about repairing car breakdowns.

I let Weidong practice driving with me until the evening, and we ate a hot clay pot by the river before taking a ride back to the transportation company. We happily drank tea and ate melon seeds until eight or nine o'clock before going home.

Suddenly I felt that this life was not bad.

It's certainly great to return home in glory, but with Erfeng lurking in my hometown, nothing good will happen if I go back.

Old You has not been released yet. He is now staying in the city to work with his master and get familiar with the car. This kind of free and easy life is priceless.

Relax for about ten days and then go back to pick up my parents during the Spring Festival.

Let’s talk about busy things after the new year.

He was actually a loser who just lived from day to day. Thinking about it, I returned home and saw Dong Xueying sitting at the door with her child in her arms. It was so cold!
I saw him stagger when he stood up, obviously frozen.

Weidong quickly took the child over, but let the young woman hit her head against the wall.

He rubbed his elbow with gritted teeth in pain: "You, you, you are finally back."

Wei Dong felt like he was holding an ice cube, and he was a little angry: "Have you ever thought about your child before doing this?!"

Dong Xueying was silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice, "They said that only by bringing the child with me would I avoid being arrested. That's how I got a chance to submit the materials in Pingjing."

Wei Dong suddenly raised his hands, ready to hit the other person in the face, but he held back.

He found that after beating and killing the butcher, his violent temper seemed to have increased, and he had even slapped the two little thieves when he was angry when talking to them before.

Nothing like this has happened in the past forty years.

So the voice he forced himself to control was trembling a little, angry: "I told you not to get involved in this, and you have a child with you. He is completely innocent!"

But Dong Xueying stiffened her neck stubbornly: "They said that our efforts now are to give our children a better life in the future!"

"Bullshit!" Wei Dong was unusually angry, but he couldn't say anything more profound: "You, you, you, this is a war, fighting is a man's job, and you can't bring your children to the battlefield! They are brainwashing through pyramid schemes, and you believe it! You are such an idiot, a big idiot!"

Actually, people in eastern Sichuan don't call people "idiots." At least, they never used that term in the 1980s. Dong Xueying didn't find it insulting, but rather a bit dumbfounded: "What is a pyramid scheme?"

"Why worry about pyramid schemes? Take care of yourself first. The law is lenient with regard to raising children, which is a basic rule and bottom line, the most basic humanitarianism. If you still want to exploit this bottom line, then what awaits you is that no one else respects the bottom line!"

Wei Dong was furious at her careless words: "This child is suffering just by following you. He must be so unlucky to be with a mother like you!"

Unexpectedly, his voice woke the child up, and he started crying as soon as he opened his eyes.

Weidong quickly apologized and lowered his head to coax the baby: "Oh oh oh, the baby is crying, and grandpa is laughing..."

This is a skilled job. There are many elderly people taking care of children in the guard room. To be honest, he has taken care of Shi Linyan's son many times.

The old woman really treated me like a servant.

The old bachelor also likes looking at the innocent look of the child, as if he can immerse his soul in the dark eyes. It is much cuter than the annoying elementary school students outside.

Dong Xueying just watched him holding the baby, and the strength she had worked so hard to build up collapsed in an instant.

The tears that hadn't been shed during the past few months of hardship and wandering suddenly burst out, and I couldn't hold them back any longer and they covered my face.

If it were a more sensible mature man, just reaching out and hugging her would be a stab in the heart.

But Weidong looked up at her with disdain: "Cry, cry, cry, cry, you're crying! You'll have a lot to cry about in the future if you're the way you take care of your kids. You'll be sold off and count the money!"

Dong Xueying simply burst into tears: "Wow..."

The baby, who was originally crying a little, had the limelight stolen from him. He looked at his young mother with wide eyes for no apparent reason and stopped crying.

Weidong was happy: "Yes, yes, cry louder. Look, look, this is a monster. Haha, don't compete with her in crying... It's a bit cold. Let's go. I'll take you home. Don't come out so late. Wasn't the lesson last time enough?"

He just took it and walked away. Is this a gift?

The young woman who was left there crying loudly came over sobbing for a while. Some people opened the windows and doors and looked out.

Dong Xueying quickened her jog a few steps to keep up.

Then the dark and gloomy old stone street was filled with rustling footsteps, and even the sobbing was nowhere to be found.

When Weidong suddenly stopped at the door of Dong's house, the young woman who lowered her head bumped into his back and covered her head with her hands.

The straight man frowned. "Take my advice. Don't get involved in this. We are all ordinary people. Old You is the one who wants to ride the wind and waves. It's fine for him to work and get a salary. But if you insist on being his vanguard, a pioneer, you don't even know how to write the word death."

The young woman, tears streaming down her face, looked up at the older boy. A glint of light shone on her face, which of course obscured the light in her eyes. She bit her lip and whispered, "I...I have no money to eat. I spent all my savings on the trip to Pingjing, and the money in my account has been frozen, so I can't file a claim."

Let Weidong sigh and touch the money: "So why are you following them? They are the ones who feed themselves and their families. If you don't think about yourself, you should think about your children..."

But the way he touched the money was not very elegant. He had to use force to feel from the waistband along the buttocks, over the crotch to the back of the thigh, and then pick out a few bills with his fingertips and hand them over.

Dong Xueying took the warm banknotes, and even with tears on her face, she couldn't help but lean over to look at them, wondering where did you get this money from?

　I can follow it anytime. I am always revising the article. It is really a headache to write a period article.
