He Yuzhu chuckled and did not hide anything. He briefly talked about the arrest of J in broad daylight and Cui Quanfu's divorce. Deputy Director Li smiled meaningfully.

This time, the four of them went to Liuheju. Although they did not make a reservation in advance, they still got a private room when they arrived.

Deputy Director Li and Lou Jingzhai were both good at socializing, and with Cui Quanfu's desire to make friends, the atmosphere at the table was naturally harmonious and warm.

The four people drank two bottles of wine and were a little drunk when they left Liuheju. They were standing at the door saying goodbye when they saw two people walking hurriedly towards them from a distance ahead.

Seeing Lou Jingzhai from a distance, he waved and shouted:

"Manager Lou, Manager Lou..."

The four of them turned around and saw two middle-aged men running towards them breathlessly. When they approached, Lou Jingzhai recognized that these two men were Section Chief Cai who replaced Hou Gui.

The middle-aged man following Chief Cai was Hou Gui’s former deputy, An Yunshan.

When the two saw Lou Jingzhai, they were overjoyed and grabbed Lou Jingzhai's left and right hands respectively. Their expressions were even more affectionate than if they had seen their biological father.

"Manager Lou, you gave us a hard time looking for you!"

Section Chief Cai was the first to speak, tightly grasping Lou Jingzhai's arm, with an expression like a woman who hadn't seen her man for several years:

"Manager Lou, you don't know that the farm is in chaos now. The army has surrounded our gate and asked us to hand over the vegetables.

And those professors, college students and the like, who were always making trouble for us and calling on leaders for meetings, all those white pigs got sick with plague, and most of them died...

We have been looking for you these days, but we went to your house several times and you said you were not there. Today we finally found your way to your son-in-law's house.

I went to the door and found out that I was here to eat..."

When Section Chief Cai said this, he suddenly raised his head as if he realized something.

I saw that there was a young man and two middle-aged men standing next to Manager Lou. One of them looked unfamiliar, but as you could tell from his clothes, he was not an ordinary person.

As for the other middle-aged man, he was their farm’s mortal enemy: Cui Quanfu.

That young man must be Manager Lou’s son-in-law.

At this moment, Manager Lou's son-in-law was talking to the unfamiliar stranger, but Manager Cui squinted his eyes and listened to him carefully.

Section Chief Cai's heart skipped a beat, thinking he might be in trouble.

Given Cui Quanfu's temperament, if he knew the situation at Xingguo Farm was so bad, he would most likely take advantage of the situation and add insult to injury.

Upon seeing this, Deputy Factory Director Li smiled and said:

"Brother Jingzhai, since you have something to do, I will take my leave first. We have a long way to go. When we get to the steel mill, I will definitely treat you."

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I'll definitely visit you at the steel mill some other day."

Lou Jingzhai also said this with a smile, feeling very happy. After today's meal, his relationship with Li Xingguo became much closer.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at the steel mill."

After Deputy Director Li finished speaking, he turned around and greeted Cui Quanfu, then waved goodbye to He Yuzhu with a smile and left.

Although Cui Quanfu still wanted to hear more about the internal situation of Xingguo Farm, it was obviously inappropriate in the current situation. After Deputy Director Li left, he smiled and said goodbye.

However, judging from what Chief Cai said just now, Lou Jingzhai's control over the farm was beyond his imagination.

It seems that what Li Xingguo said was right. Whether it is He Yuzhu or Lou Jingzhai, the current suspension and investigation is only temporary.

Section Chief Cai and An Yunshan held Lou Jingzhai and refused to let go. Lou Jingzhai had no choice but to take the two to his own residence.

He Yuzhu also returned to his home and told Hou Gui about the situation. Hou Gui thanked him politely and hurried out to the courtyard next door.

Not long after He Yuzhu entered the house, he heard a commotion outside as if someone had come in. He went out of the house and looked:

It turned out that Section Chief Sun from the Propaganda Department of the steel rolling mill came in personally with four staff members, including Xu Damao from the backyard.

Three members of the patrol team came in with these people. Although He Yuzhu didn't know their names, he had met them before.

The group entered the middle courtyard, and everyone in the front courtyard followed behind, pointing and talking, guessing what these people were here for.

He Yuzhu remembered what Deputy Director Li had said to him: Liu Haizhong was removed from his position as team leader and was replaced by a young man named Tang Junliang.

He took a closer look at the three patrol team members and found that Tang Junliang should be the youngest one, looking only about twenty-three or twenty-four years old.

Because the other two people would subconsciously be more respectful to this young man whether they were walking or talking.

A group of people rushed into the backyard, and everyone in the yard followed to watch the fun.

As soon as he entered the backyard, Xu Damao didn't wait for others to speak, and went to the second uncle's house first and knocked on the door "bang bang bang".

"Enter!"

The second uncle said casually at home that although he spent twelve dollars last night, he did not feel sorry at all, but was very happy instead.

He already knew from several old men in the yard that the man who had determined He Daqing's class background was named Meng Yi.

Moreover, he also had some understanding of He Daqing's specific situation.

Next, he prepared to take a two-pronged approach, on the one hand to inquire about the situation of the man named Meng Yi, and on the other hand to go to Baocheng to capture He Daqing.

If things go smoothly and both parties are unaware of the whole surprise attack, the truth about He Yuzhu's background will definitely come to light.

In addition, he also went to ask about cadre Tong. Although he received a few scratches on his face, the communication between the two sides was generally pleasant.

Cadre Tong was an honest girl. She explained everything about her and He Yuzhu very thoroughly, even describing some details very clearly.

It was from that day on that the second uncle realized when he returned home that his wife was also a good woman.

However, it takes some proper training before anything can be accomplished!

Thinking this in his heart, the second uncle could no longer hold back the smile on his face. He felt that his next step might be like Xu Damao, where he could be directly transferred from worker to employee, thus raising his status significantly.

Just then, I heard someone knocking on the door, so I naturally said, "Come in."

When Xu Damao heard what the second uncle said, he couldn't help but snorted coldly and kicked the door open.

With a "bang" sound, the second uncle was so scared that he shuddered all over and almost drew the map again.

I have to say it, this bastard Shazhu is really a piece of shit.

Ever since he was frightened last time, Second Uncle felt that he had this sequelae. When he was frightened unexpectedly, he would easily...

Ahem, and even that aspect, it also... shortened the time by more than half...

When he saw that the person coming was Xu Damao, the second uncle's stomach suddenly caught fire, and then he rushed to the top of his head in an instant, glaring and roaring:

"Xu Damao, you unlucky thing, what are you doing? You kicked my door in."

Xu Damao was not angry with the Second Uncle. Instead, he looked at him with a smile and said:

"Hey, Liu Haizhong, your good days are over. Section Chief Sun is waiting for you outside. Get out now!"

When the second uncle heard Xu Damao say that Section Chief Sun was here, he immediately sat up from the kang and put on his shoes, complaining to Xu Damao as he put them on:

"Da Mao, you are from the same hospital after all. It's such a big deal that Section Chief Sun is coming, but you didn't even tell me in advance.

This is so hasty that I don't even have time to prepare. Isn't this going to cause any delays?"

Xu Damao listened to the second uncle's complaints, with a bit of contempt on his face, and quickly walked out.

The second uncle also followed him out and saw Section Chief Sun with four section officers and three other members of the patrol team. For some reason, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

However, he had been the captain for a few days after all, so he suppressed his uneasiness and trotted to Section Chief Sun. He bowed first, then smiled and said:

"Oh, Chief Sun, thank you for coming. I am... I am really unprepared. I am sorry, sorry for neglecting you. Let's talk in the room."

As the secretary of the factory, Xiang Juan is in charge of departments such as the Propaganda Department and the Art and Literature Department. Strictly speaking, the patrol team is an independent team under the Propaganda Department.

Although many things can be reported directly to the secretary, many things also depend on the support of the Propaganda Department.

The second uncle was originally a workshop worker, and now he is the captain of the patrol team. If he wants to go out to investigate the situation, he must first go to the Propaganda Department to get a release permit before the workshop will let him go.

During the first few days when the second uncle joined the patrol team, he was so arrogant that he didn't see anyone in his eyes.

However, when applying for permission to go out for investigation, I was embarrassed by Section Chief Sun several times, and now I can tell the difference between the big Wang and the small Wang.

Now that Section Chief Sun has come in person, we naturally give him a warm welcome.

Unexpectedly, Section Chief Sun did not appreciate it. He glanced at the second uncle coldly and said indifferently:

"Comrade Liu Haizhong, I am here today to announce the personnel changes in the factory and to give the secretary an order:"

When the second uncle heard that it was an order from the secretary, he immediately put away the smile on his face and stood respectfully, as if he was listening to an imperial decree.

"Since you led people to break into the archives room of the subdistrict office, after the investigation by the municipal bureau, although no confidential documents were lost, you still have to be punished for your behavior.

From now on, your position as captain of the patrol team will be suspended, and the new captain will be former patrol team member Tang Junliang.

In the next work, you must fully cooperate with Comrade Tang Junliang and complete the tasks assigned to the secretary together."

After Section Chief Sun finished speaking, he did not wait for the second uncle to speak and said directly:

"Liu Haizhong, I have read out the order and will leave now. Secretary Xiang knows that you are injured, so he has granted you two days of rest and you can go back to work on Monday."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"boom……"

The second uncle felt as if a muffled thunder had exploded in his brain, making his head buzz. He could not hear anything and could not think of anything.

……

The captain is gone?

The captain was taken away by that kid Tang Junliang?

why?

I was clearly working for Secretary Xiang, I clearly did nothing wrong, I clearly...

I don’t know how much time had passed, but the second uncle felt a series of wild and starry thoughts flashing through his mind, and he finally came to his senses.

Looking closely, Chief Sun had already left with four staff members, leaving only Tang Junliang, the new patrol team leader, and two other team members standing in the yard.

The old ladies, young girls and young wives who came to watch the fun filled the entire backyard. They all looked at Liu Haizhong, pointed at him and talked about him.

From time to time, there was a gloating smile on his face.

The second uncle suddenly felt that these gazes were like thousands of arrows piercing his heart, piercing his whole body and causing pain everywhere.

"Okay, you don't have to think so much. Look at you, since you became the captain, you have been in the hospital every day, and you are still injured.

If you ask me, you are not destined to be a captain, so you might as well just be a good substitute squad leader."

Finally, it was the second aunt who came out and pulled the second uncle into the house while talking.

The second uncle had a sullen face and said nothing, still being held by the second aunt. However, he couldn't help thinking about what the second aunt had just said.

Since he became the team leader, he has been to the hospital twice in two days. Either he was in the yard, where he was pointed at and scolded by Sha Zhu, or he was beaten in the street office.

Could it be that what the old woman said was right, and there was no wormwood on my ancestral grave?

Seeing that Uncle was like a fool, standing by the kang and not even able to get on it, Second Aunt knew that he was unhappy, so she didn't say anything and helped him onto the kang:

"Okay, didn't the leader surnamed Sun say that the secretary asked you to take a two-day break?

If you ask me, you should not think about anything else in the next two days. Just heal your wounds first and then think about other things."

The second aunt said a few words casually, but the second uncle was still in a daze and ignored her. She didn't say anything more and turned around to prepare dinner.

Just as I was about to fetch water with an enamel basin, I saw three people standing at the door. Leading them was a young man who looked to be in his twenties and had a clean complexion.

As soon as he saw the second aunt coming out, he immediately smiled and said:

"Hello, Auntie. My name is Tang Junliang. I am Captain Liu's colleague. I am here today to express my condolences to him on behalf of the factory."

Although the second aunt did not leave the house just now, she also heard Leader Sun say that the new team leader was called Tang Junliang.

Therefore, when he heard the young man's name was Tang Junliang, he knew that he was the one who had taken his master's place, and he was not happy about it:

"It's Comrade Tang. Come in. He's lying on the kang. His injuries haven't healed yet. The doctor said he needs to rest more."

"Hey, don't worry, Auntie. We'll just talk about work and then leave."

Tang Junliang seemed to have not noticed the second aunt's ugly expression at all. He still kept smiling and spoke politely before entering the house.

The second uncle was just leaning on the quilt at this time. When he saw Tang Junliang and the other two team members come in, his face suddenly darkened:

"Why, are you here to laugh at me?"

"Captain Liu, you misunderstood. I came here today to make things clear to you. Although I am the captain now, I still have to listen to you about team matters.
