Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2587: Rather Die Than Live in Disgrace

Yi Zhonghai stopped Lu Tao and kept persuading him, while also speaking to the mother and daughter.

Lu Tao, who was originally angry, lost his temper in an instant.

Lu Juan, who had originally thought about rejecting the marriage, looked at her angry father, then at her sick mother, and then reached out to touch the finger marks on her brother's face. Her beating heart gradually turned cold.

"I"

"I marry!"

Lu Juan gritted her teeth, shed tears, and spoke softly.

"No, I don't agree."

"Sister, if you marry him, I will die."

The little boy said this stubbornly, with a fierce look in his eyes.

When Lu Tao heard his son's voice, he reached out and touched his son's cheek, then nodded seriously.

"Humph, why are you interrupting a kid when adults are talking?"

"You have no respect for your elders and deserve a beating!"

At this time, two people came out of the door.

It happened to be Accountant Wang and his wife.

When they arrived, they heard a noise in the house, and then they watched at the door for a while.

When Accountant Wang saw Lu Tao pushing his son to the ground, his face turned terrible.

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's words again, he gave Yi Zhonghai a red dot in his heart.

This is a good comrade and worth cultivating.

When he finally heard the little boy say something about going to die, he couldn't help but walk into the house.

"dad!"

When the young man saw his father coming, he immediately felt like he had a backer and limped over to him.

The accountant's wife walked quickly forward to look at her son, occasionally brushing off the dust on her body, her eyes fixed on the family in front of her.

Especially the girl who cried her heart out, she decided in her heart that after she got married, she must teach her how to respect her parents-in-law.

Seeing Accountant Wang and the other person come in, Lu Tao stood up calmly and protected his wife and daughter behind him.

At this moment, he saw the cunning in Accountant Wang's eyes.

I saw the brutality in the young man's eyes.

I also saw the ill intention in the accountant's wife's eyes.

Obviously, none of their family takes them seriously.

At this moment, Lu Tao was no longer afraid.

Man is mortal.

Why should you let your wife and children suffer?

Gently pushing away Yi Zhonghai who was blocking his way, Lu Tao became fearless.

"Wang Tiande, this marriage is beyond the reach of our Lu family."

Lu Tao said seriously, and then said more seriously, "I, Lu Tao, am a grown man anyway."

"I can't do this thing of selling my daughter."

"Don't mention this matter again in the future."

Lu Tao said this firmly, and his wife and children behind him had tears in their eyes.

"You, good, haha, good."

"You have to think about it."

Accountant Wang didn't expect that the honest man who usually dared not say a word when being bullied would dare to go against his wishes. He immediately looked furious and his expression became more and more vicious.

Ever since he became the accountant, no one in the village dared to talk to him like this.

Yi Zhonghai standing aside also had a look of regret on his face.

He is not pretending, it's really a pity.

If his plan went according to it, Lu Juan should marry Wang Peng, and then he would build a good relationship with the Lu family. Over time, he would let the other party help with funeral affairs when he got old.

As long as they build a good relationship, even if the other party doesn't help, the rumors in the village will teach them a lesson.

But now, everything has come back to square one.

What a pity, what a pity.

Accountant Wang sneered, while the accountant's wife glared at the Lu family angrily.

When the young man heard that Lu Juan would not marry him, he immediately roared, "No, no!"

"You said you don't want to marry, so why don't you marry?"

"Dad, Mom!"

"I want her, I want her to marry me, I want her!"

The young man became more and more excited as he spoke. His triangular eyes were full of ferocity, and his finger was pointing at Lu Juan who was not far away.

Lu Tao stretched out his hands to protect his wife and children behind him. There was dust on his glasses, but it did not prevent him from seeing through human nature.

This man is definitely not a good match for my daughter.

If she really marries him, she will be pushing her daughter into a fire pit.

At this moment, Lu Tao's face was grim, "You are dreaming."

"Don't pay attention to our Jia Juan in the future. Otherwise, I will report you to the village, the town, or even the city, and I will not forgive you!"

Lu Tao let out a roar of his own.

For a moment, the young man was frightened and stepped back, instinctively hiding behind his mother.

Accountant Wang was even more angry. This man really didn't take him seriously.

"Mr. Lu, don't be so ungrateful!"

"Don't you even consider your background? How dare you bark here?"

"I'm kind-hearted and I'm trying to help you, but you're all ungrateful bastards!"

Lu Tao snorted coldly after hearing this, "Justice is in the hearts of the people."

Then, with a hint of determination, he shouted in a sonorous voice, "Wang, I know you are good, come on, you can all come together."

"It doesn't matter if you do it openly or secretly!"

"But don't even think about it."

"Also, let me tell you, this world is reasonable!"

"No demon, no villain, no filth or dirtiness can be bigger than this red sky."

Behind him, his wife had a look of relief on her face.

This is the man she loves.

A man who would rather die in glory than live in disgrace.

Being with someone like this, what does she have to be afraid of or worried about?

At worst, we can go to the underworld together.

I can also see my father.

She still has a lot to say to her father!
Lu Juan on the side had wiped away her tears, and there was no compromise in her eyes, only determination!

Since her father had made the decision, she had no choice but to agree.

As for the difficulties at home, we will shoulder them together.

She just didn't believe it. Is there no place for reason in this world?

The little boy Lu Ning beside him also came forward and looked at the young man fiercely.

He's still young now, but he'll grow up.

A fierce look fell on the young man's eyes, and the teeth marks on his arm were so cold and painful!

Accountant Wang felt a little panicked. After all, he was just an accountant in a village. If the matter got out of hand, he would have to bear the consequences.

However, within the scope of his authority, he has plenty of ways to discipline him.

"Okay, you are capable, right? You are so arrogant that you look down on us peasants."

"You are awesome, you have the ability to support the family!"

"Give Xiaomi back, and we'll see what happens!"

Accountant Wang knew that this matter could not be made a big deal, otherwise, if it got out, his face would be buried in the ground!
But the young man next to him immediately shouted, "Dad, I don't want it, I want Lu Juan, I want him!"

Accountant Wang's face flashed with anger, and he kicked the young man in the buttocks, "What are you so anxious about, you bastard?"

"Take Xiaomi. Sooner or later, she will beg to be our wife!"

"Humph!"

After saying that, he glanced at Lu Tao who looked angry, the girl who looked stubborn, and the woman who looked calm.

snort…

Accountant Wang was about to go out, but before he could go out, he saw the village chief running in hurriedly!
The village chief glanced at the people in the yard, and without asking any questions, he walked directly to Yi Zhonghai and said, "Master Yi, why are you still here!"

"Hurry up, the leaders of Sijiu City will come to inspect our work soon."

"I guess they are here to listen to your report. Hurry up and think about it, otherwise you won't be able to say it when the time comes."

The village chief said a lot, and Wang, the accountant who was judging the case, didn't care about the Lu family's affairs. At the moment, the leaders of Sijiu City were coming, and this was a big event in the village.

As for the Lu family.

Accountant Wang glanced at it and sneered in his heart.

If someone from this family with a bad background accidentally mentions it, they will be in big trouble.

When Lu Tao's family heard that the leaders of Sijiu City were coming, they were not happy but became worried.

Seeing Accountant Wang's malicious look, he felt even more uneasy.

Lu Tao felt his legs were sore and he could hardly hold on any longer.

Fortunately, his wife's hand was on his shoulder, helping him hold on!

"Ah, this, this me, what did I say?"

Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai was at a loss.

When he was in the old city, his greatest experience was to lead a meeting in the courtyard, and every time it was the second brother Liu Haizhong who started the meeting, then the third brother Yan Fugui would add to the discussion, and finally he, the eldest brother, would make the decision.

But now, when asked to give a report, he really doesn't understand.

"I'll go home and think about it."

Yi Zhonghai added, but the village chief was in a hurry and had no time to think about it, so he stopped him and said, "No need to go back, just practice here."

"Come, I'm telling you, listen carefully."

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai really didn't know what to say, the village chief simply started shouting himself.

"I, Yi Zhonghai, am where I am today thanks to my superiors"

The village chief spoke in a low voice, and Accountant Wang added to his comments.

As for the Lu family, they were completely ignored.

The accountant's wife and the young man on the side were staring at the Lu family.

The young man looked at Lu Juan's fair face, and a fire of evil rose in his lower abdomen.

This woman must marry him.

Unless she does not marry!

While the village chief and his two companions were sharpening their weapons before the battle against Yi Zhonghai, the villagers were quickly cleaning up the streets.

At this moment, someone suddenly saw a car on the road and immediately started shouting loudly.

"Cars, so many cars, look quickly."

As soon as the voice came out, the villagers hurriedly climbed up the wall and looked at the road below the slope.

“Four cars.”

"That's a jeep. I saw one when I went to town."

"Uncle San, what kind of car is that?"

Someone pointed at the rearmost armored vehicle and shouted, and someone looked over immediately.

"That's an armored vehicle. In the past, during the war, the Japanese would hide inside and shoot from behind. It was really powerful."

An elderly man next to him said this while smoking his pipe.

The people around him immediately craned their necks to look at it, "Our armored vehicle is quite good-looking."

Nowadays, it is a great honor for villagers to see a car. As for armored vehicles, they have really never seen one.

"What are you standing there for? Go and ask the village chief to come and greet them."

The captain saw the car approaching the village entrance and was about to enter the village, so he hurriedly shouted to everyone.

Those who reacted immediately ran towards the village.

After a while, the cars drove into the village along the dirt road and then stopped one after another.

When the captain saw the village chief and the accountant running out behind him, followed by Yi Zhonghai, he felt relieved, thinking that they had finally caught up.

As the villagers watched, the first person to get off the jeep was the person in the first jeep, and this person was the top leader, second leader, and third leader of the township.
The villagers have seen this man several times. As the saying goes, a current official is not as good as a current manager. When this man came, the surrounding villagers immediately became more energetic.

Even the captain doesn't dare to act casually.

The second person to get off the car was the town leader.

Similarly, some of these people are known to some, some have only heard of them, but each one of them is extraordinary.

Just the people getting off these two cars was enough to shock the villagers.

On weekdays, it is difficult for them to even meet the town leaders, let alone the township leaders.

Now, they are all here.

So everyone was curious about the people in the third jeep.

What they didn't expect was that the armored vehicle that came down this time was the last one.

The door of the armored vehicle opened and six guards came down one after another.

Not only are these security officers dressed in uniform, they are also wearing a full set of equipment and are very capable in their movements. It's easy to tell that they are not simple people.

After these six people came down, they immediately stood guard on the spot, which made the surrounding villagers feel nervous.

At this time, the people in the third jeep got out.

The first person to get off the front passenger seat was a woman. You could tell from her clothes that she was from the city. Which country woman would dress so elegantly?

Then there was a middle-aged man wearing glasses in the back seat, but after getting off the bus, he obviously lowered his head towards the people in the bus.

At this time, the woman in the front seat quickly walked to the side and opened the car door, and a slightly plump middle-aged man walked out.

After this man came out, the people in the two cars in front immediately surrounded him and stood behind the middle-aged man with glasses.

"Leader, this is Caojiagou Village."

The middle-aged man with glasses smiled and said to the person in front of him.

It’s impossible not to laugh.

He is not only the leader of the 49 cities, but also the leader of the nine departments.

Nowadays, anyone in the circle knows Jiubu.

And this person is in charge of publicity and has great power.

"Yeah, good, good village."

Chen Gong glanced around and spoke with a smile.

But in his heart he was complaining about Yang Xiaotao for assigning him such a task.

When I went to Jiubu early this morning, I met Yang Xiaotao.

As a result, the boy asked him if he wanted to go on a business trip. He thought he was joking, so he agreed with a smile.

But who would have thought that a jeep and an armored vehicle would come directly.

Then I was put into the car, and only then did I hear Lou Xiao'e talk about the purpose of this trip.

He also knew why Yang Xiaotao came to the Ninth Department so early.

Just see who comes and catch them.

Why did you come so early?
I complained in my heart and promised myself that I would not come to work too early in the future.

After calming down, I looked at the group of people around me who were flattering me, especially the compliments they gave me, and felt a little proud.

"Secretary Hu, I've heard that you guys are doing great, with high grain yields every year. The higher-ups have praised you more than once during meetings!"

Chen Gong spoke words without hesitation to get close to others, but of course not all of them were nonsense.

As the Propaganda Director of the Ninth Department, he also managed logistics for a period of time, and he had conducted serious research on key supplies such as food.

Since the promotion of Yangcun No. 1 developed by Yang Xiaotao, although the amount of supplied grain has not increased much, there has never been a shortage of grain on the shelves of grain stores.

In the past, residents in the city received food once every half a month in order to make reasonable arrangements, but this was also due to the lack of food.

But now...

It won't be a big deal if you take it all out in one month.

"It's all thanks to our comrades. We are just fulfilling our duty as revolutionaries..."

Secretary Hu looked humble, and the people around him were equally humble.

In other words, compared to Chen Gong, their achievements were insignificant.

Jiubu, any factory you pick out is not what they imagined!

If he could establish good relations and open a factory here, it would not only solve the problem of economic development, but he would also not have to worry about not having political achievements.

However, until now, he and the people behind him still don't know why Director Chen came to such a village.

Is it really like what the people in the town said, that we came here to listen to the report?
The leaders of the town and the village gathered in front of Chen Gong and listened carefully to the conversation between the two.

Similarly, the surrounding villagers also pricked up their ears. Even if they only heard the general idea, it would not prevent them from bragging later.

Yi Zhonghai was startled when he saw a familiar face in the crowd, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

He didn't expect that the people who came this time were Chen Gong and Lou Xiao'e.

Especially Lou Xiao'e, who used to be a small character who was not worthy of being on the stage, but now she has become a "leader".

Thinking about myself again, I was originally an eighth-level master chef and had prestige in the workshop.

But now?

The status of the two people is completely different.

this.
This just goes to show that following the right person is really crucial.
