Nightmare loess

Dragon and Xiaoman are small dragons, and the double dragons cover the top, showing auspiciousness and warding off evil spirits.Shunxiang looked at Lan Cuiping, thinking that Maolan had a relationship with orchids, and the orchids grew very vigorously when she was born, and let Lan Cuiping's orchids accompany her forever after death; Beside the official road, let those passers-by bring him joy in all directions.So Shunxiang and Shunmao dug a deep tomb kiln under the cliff next to Lancuiping in Xiaoman.

Jia Shunxiang lived "things", he didn't hit the flag, he didn't throw the basin, he didn't eat the banquet, and he didn't invite drummers.Himself, Shunmao, and Shunmao's aunt, all dressed in sackcloth and filial piety (he doesn't care about his seniority, he just wants to be grand).After taking one last look at Maolan, he closed the coffin lid, asked someone to carry the coffin out of the cave, and went down the south slope first.Shun Mao started throwing paper money, and Shun Xiang started shouting:

"The green line and the blue line, the blue Yingyingcai, gave birth to an orchid flower, and she really loves people to death.

The green line and the blue line, blue Yingyingcai, girls from thirteen provinces, count our orchids. ..."

Down the southern slope, Kunde followed behind.At the bottom of the ditch, passing by the Bai family, Bai Zengxi's wife and Bai Zengxi came out and followed the coffin.Turning around the well platform, Tongsheng's family followed.Walking into the ditch, Changgui's family, Hunchang's family, and Guanshengniang's family followed.Shusheng stood on the side of the alkali for a while, and then followed.Going up the north slope, passing families across the road, Demao, Youmao, Desheng, Wood, Wenlong, and Youfu all followed.Walking around Beipo Naopan, Li Maolin's family came out, Baocai and Baoren stood on the side of the base to watch; Duan Desheng's family came out, Duan Hegui was about to get off the side of the base, but he dragged him down...

Shun Mao kept throwing paper money, and Shun Xiang kept singing:

"Plumeria japonica blooms in the hollows of the back,

Poor people can't come back.

The lamb sucks and looks at the mother,

My brother panicked when he didn't see his sister.

The orchids are blooming, facing the slopes,

I couldn't find (xíng) my sister, and I cried and broke my brother. "

The roaring mountain shook and the ground trembled, and wept so hard that my heart broke.

When I came to the bank of Li Jiajian, the scene of the funeral was vigorous a few days ago, but now it is deserted, and the ground is full of shredded paper money.At first, no one came out, Shunxiang didn't leave, and continued to sing.You Cai came out, Aunt Maoshan came out;The three widows cried together, Baodou came out, walked to the front of the team, took Shunxiang's hand calmly and solemnly and said: "My condolences to Shunbian."Like a chief.

The team turned around, went down the north slope, and went to the wheat field Kuxian from the avenue beside the well platform, and the team gathered in the field of the wheat field Kuxian.Jia Shunxiang's family of three turned around and kowtowed to everyone. Shunxiang cried and said, "Thank you for taking care of Shunmao, and thank you for coming to the funeral."The road ahead is narrow, please turn around, there are only three members of Jia's family, and the coffin bearers to send the coffin into the tomb kiln.Filling the tomb, Shunxiang howled again.Crying suddenly, there was a mist, wet, the sky was red, the sun was hazy, and pieces of broken orchids suddenly appeared on the snow-white blue screen, dancing like a blue ribbon on the high slope of the loess.

Jia Shunxiang dug a four-hole kiln on the small beam connecting Lan Cuiping to Bizigou, and moved the brothers and two families from their ancestral home on the southern slope to the mountain.Become the tallest and farthest farmer in Lengmiaogou Village.The beam on the east side of Xiaoxian in Maichang has been named since then, and it is called Jiajialiang.Jia Shunxiang had thousands of reasons for moving here, and being with Maolan was the first one. He felt that he owed Maolan too much and wanted to be with her for the rest of his life.Another thing is that he is tired of the disputes in the world, and the four years of prison life wiped out any desire for love and hatred.He didn't want to marry again, he wanted to keep Shunmao as the Jia family's successor.The most important reason hidden in my heart is my nostalgia for freedom in prison, and my love for the land and sunshine during labor reform, which cannot be understood by people who have not experienced that kind of life.

There is also a reason for Mr. Feng Shui to choose here.Dongshan is a dragon that came from the north. This is a legend that everyone knows. In fact, not only one dragon came here to protect the mountains and water, but also a small dragon came from the south. The head of the little dragon girl nestles gently under the head of the Dongshan Dalong, forming a family relationship. Whether it is father and daughter or husband and wife, it is a good meaning of reunion.Looking at it from a distance, it is really similar in shape and extremely warm.After hearing this, Lao Jia insisted on moving up the mountain to live.

The new kiln faces south from the north, high on the ridge, with deep gullies in front of it, unobstructed and sunny all year round.Looking far and wide, thousands of mountains and ravines are all in sight, and close-up, the blue streamers on the blue green screen, the cliffs of Bizigou are thousands of feet, the ever-changing nature makes people's minds purified.

"This place is so beautifully chosen." When the educated youth Liu Shuqing and Zhao Xiyun first came to serve meals at Jia's house, they sat on the edge of Jia's eyelids and looked at the high loess slopes in the distance for a long time. willing to leave.After hearing the story of Jia's family, the two were deeply moved by Jia Shunxiang's affection for moving to the mountain.Later, Liu Shuqing, who had seen Guotagou, was suddenly amazed. Jia Shunxiang's reverence for nature when he lived on the mountain had a similar feeling to his own.Later, Biaozigou undergoes earth-shaking changes, and Liu Shuqing understands the infatuated dream that resides in Jia Shunxiang's heart.

Jia Shunxiang is no longer as majestic as he was before he was imprisoned. His hair is a little gray, his beard is unshaven, and his face is full of wrinkles.Although he is still in his thirties, he is already old, and people began to call him Lao Jia.Heartbroken for Maolan, she didn't want to remarry at first, but Aunt Shunmao gave birth to a daughter, confinement, and babysitting, and it was very inconvenient to eat at the brother-in-law's house all year round.It happened that a mother and son came down from above, and the man died, and they fled famine to beg for food and had nowhere to live, so Lao Jia took them in and became his mother-in-law and aunt.Although the woman is in her prime, she has gray brows, a straight waist, and a short stature. She looks like an eleven or twelve-year-old boy.Old Jia was desperate, he had long since lost the suave and boldness that Jia Zhongjun had inherited, and he just wanted to start a family, as long as he had some hot food to eat.

Here, Lao Jia has nothing to do with the world, and lives his life in poverty, but Lengmiaogou is getting worse day by day.Li Baodou doesn't know how to farm, he is young and energetic, and bosses around; Cao Wenlong is old and frail, and he doesn't want to be bullied;The land planting in this village is in a mess, either in the wrong season or in the wrong land.There is a famine every year, and every family is short of food.Li Baodou assumed the name of a secretary, and did not change his hobby of making friends in Yunyou. His father was dead, and there was no one to supervise him, and he was not in the team for half of the year, making friends and wandering around Yanhe River.The crowd couldn't see it, and they tricked Lao Jia to come out and take care of things.Lao Jia opened and closed one eye, unable to live or die.

The wind is turbulent and the current situation has changed drastically.Li Baodou waved his arms, and Yanhechuan responded.A group of brothers and acquaintances became buddies, spread all over the villages and towns of Fu County, and became the leaders of the peasant rebel faction in Fu County.Raising communes, smashing the county government, arresting cadres, and criticizing gangsters.It has become a climate and is famous far and wide.

After becoming famous, Li Baodou felt that the name "Bao Dou" was too vulgar, so he ordered the county Chinese teacher to change the name.I mentioned a few, such as "Weidong", "□□", and "Criticism", and I was not satisfied.Said: You give me a "tall image of culture".The teacher thought that he thought he was short in stature and his image was not enough; he couldn't simply use the words "big" and "tall", which seemed uneducated.Racking my brains, I found a classical Chinese character "Pi" and kept the character "Dou", which is not only tall and cultured, but also embodies the spirit of rebellion.It's called "Li Pidou".Once explained, I am very happy.Thinking that the word "Pi" in Mandarin is too hard to pronounce, the word "Pei" is pronounced in Northern Shaanxi dialect. "Dou (dóu)" originally meant a tool for fighting food, but it was changed to "dou (dòu) struggle".In fact, there is no clear distinction between "Dou (dóu) and Dou (dòu)" in northern Shaanxi dialect.Then it was announced to the public.

By the end of that year, the County Revolutionary Committee was established in Fu County, and Li Pidou was integrated into the leadership team.Became a county cadre and lived in the county seat.

5.2.16 Reconstruction team

The name of the party secretary of the Lengmiaogou Brigade has already degraded his status, and he doesn't want to hang up any more.The point is that he doesn't want to go back to the countryside anymore, he wants to cut off the way out, so that he can stay in the city forever.But Lengmiaogou is his foundation, and he can't give up the power that the Li family has already mastered in the village.Li Pidou understands that Lengmiaogou has been worsened by him year after year, and he is full of resentment, and he needs someone to clean up this mess for him.He still remembers his father's words: "Jia's family...the will of the people...don't overwhelm the leader".So I tried my best to rearrange the leadership team of Lengmiaogou.

Cao Wenlong, the old one is useless.He asked Liu Shusheng to be the captain, Shusheng was not spiritual, no one loved him since he was a child, and he always ate at Pidou's house. It was Maoshan's aunt who brought him up, and he was as close as a brother to Pidou, and he couldn't worship Pidou. Listen to him the most.

Shen Youfu, on the surface, obeys orders and is very obedient. This person has a flexible mind and can stand up to things.He and Cao Guitian are on the same page - Aunt Blessed's sister is Cao Guitian's aunt, she is a person with a foreign surname that the Cao family helped settle in Lengmiaogou.Cao Guitian had been classmates with Pi Dou since he was a child, and he was a close buddy who advanced and retreated together, much more iron than Duan and Sheng.This time Cao Guitian was appointed the deputy director of the Hejiaping Commune.Pi Douxin said that with such a relationship, he was afraid that Shen Youfu would be disobedient. This time the "reorganization" replaced Shen Youfu's accountant with a deputy secretary of the brigade, so that he could take care of his unspiritual brother Liu Shusheng.

Shen Youfu's accountant is replaced by the deputy secretary, so the accountant cannot be absent.Since the cooperative, Lengmiaogou's accountants have always been counted as members of the team.It would be impossible without an accountant.Pi Dou let Duan Hegui be the man.Lao Jia had an accident, Desheng got involved, and Maoshan replaced Desheng's accountant with Shen Youfu.The Duan family refused to accept it.Pi Dou thought about it, the Duan family has a lot of power in the village, so they still have to use it.Duan Hesheng is a die-hard supporter of his rebellion and respects him.Put his brother into the team, don't worry about this scholar being disobedient.

After Lao Jia's incident, Duan Hesheng rarely returned to the village, and after graduation he worked as a temporary teacher in a suburban elementary school in the county.There was no hope of marrying Maolan, and the women in the city looked down on him at all. His aunt, Pidou, introduced a strong girl captain in Ansai to marry him.The aunt was very savage, Duan Hesheng didn't want to take her with her, so she lived with Duan's family in Lengmiaogou.During the movement, Duan Hesheng voted for Li Pidou. The revolution was successful, and Pidou became the leader. Duan Hesheng no longer served as a primary school teacher. people management).Since then, I have been desperate.

The reason why Li Pidou was able to achieve great things, as a farmer, entered the county leadership team within half a year is inseparable from his extraordinary thoughtfulness.He arranged the leadership team of Lengmiaogou with far-sightedness.He knows that after he is not the family of Lengmiaogou, only Lao Jia can support him. He is not sure about the major events in China and the direction of the movement. He still has a grasp of the situation in Lengmiaogou. liveable.If the leadership team of the brigade is changed this time, the surname Li is still in power, not to mention that the Li family does not have such capable people. The households of the six surnames have long been tired of the deteriorating situation of the Li family's leadership, and most of the villagers will not be able to pass.He was very aware of the trick his father was playing, but he didn't think it was anything.There's a lot more to this movement than that.The overthrow smashed so many things, the rules and enmity of the elders didn't matter to him.Therefore, he didn't have too much prejudice against Jia Shunxiang, and felt that he was a stickler and easy to fool.

He first asked Shen Youfu to speak and mobilized Lao Jia to come out of the mountain.

When Cao Wenlong brought Shen Youfu to this village, Jia Shunxiang didn't want to see him: he was thin and long, had bad eyesight and wore glasses, he was a bit educated, and he was not warm or cold with the villagers.Now that he has become a cadre, he is now doing Lao Jia's ideological work, how can he listen to it.Youfu was patient, he tore it apart, crushed it and told him the reason for leaving the mountain.Lao Jia heard that Youfu respected him, and hoped that he could come out of the mountain and work together to reverse the situation of Lengmiaogou and make the villagers of Lengmiaogou full.But Lao Jia couldn't figure out whether Fufu was a gun in Pidou's hand, or whether he was in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han.After talking all night and burning a lot of lamp oil, Lao Jia still sent You Fu away.

You Fu said that he can't move Lao Jia, which was already expected by Pi Dou, and he was not upset, but just wanted You Fu to blow the wind and have a mental preparation.I also want to ask Shusheng to talk about it again. After teaching for a long time, Shusheng is not only stupid in heart, but also stupid in mouth.The key is that he can't understand Pi Dou's mind.He kept saying, "It's fine if he's not in the right position, but brother, you are in charge of the house, and I'll just guard the door for you." Pi Dou was afraid that Shusheng's departure would be counterproductive, so he decided to do it himself.

Pi Dou is used to wandering around the rivers and lakes, and he has never met anyone or passed by on any occasion.When he went to see Jia Shunxiang, he was not at all afraid. Even though he knew what the Li family and his father had done to the Jia family, he felt that compared to the bloody incidents in the movement, he was nothing compared to the bloody incidents. He did not feel shabby at all. .The key is that what he said can impress Lao Jia, and this Pidou has done his homework in advance.

Pi Dou didn't boil Jia's lamp oil at night.He knew that when his mother-in-law and aunt harassed him, the foolish baby made trouble, and Lao Jia went to bed early when he was idle, he was reluctant to turn the lamp over and over again, so he would look down upon him.That morning, in order to catch up with early work, Li Pidou brought two cans of Ranfan and went to the wheat field.That morning's job was to carry corn stalks from Jiutangou to the cattle pen, and the wheat field was a must pass.When a person carrying corn stalks came up, Pi Dou stopped Lao Jia, took a rest on the field, and said: "The mustard brought from Ercheng is better than the bitter vegetable, come and taste it." Pi Dou brought rice Coming here, Lao Jia didn't think it was sudden. He knew that he had something to say, and he still had a can of rice.Get down, pick up the jar, gulp down Ranfan, pick up the pickled mustard, and shout: "It's delicious."

Pi Dou also picked up the jar to drink.As long as the suffering people eat together in the field, admire each other's meals and taste each other's side dishes, even if they don't speak, the hissing and hissing of drinking porridge can make the whole scene shrouded in a peaceful atmosphere. Enmity will not erupt at this time.Just drink with the townspeople.

"How is the corn in Jiutangou this year?" Pi Dou asked.

"The land has been washed away, and there is not much harvest." Old Jia replied.

Lengmiaogou introduced corn early on. On the one hand, they wanted to change food varieties, and on the other hand, they also wanted to increase grain production, because corn is more productive than millet. This is a real situation in Sichuan.However, the corn planted in Lengmiaogou on the sloping land is short and small, and the yield can never increase.Jia Shunxiang just wanted to find a piece of flat land to grow corn. That year, he expanded the planting and opened up wasteland, and Lao Jia fell in love with Jiutangou.The top forest at the bottom of the ditch used to block out the sun. After the top forest was cut down, a narrow flat land of several hundred meters was exposed. Although it was not very wide, it stretched from the palm of the ditch to the front of the wine jar. The land was fertile Wet, planted corn, tall and strong, and harvested a good harvest that year.Played a key role in getting through the famine years.After Lao Jia was released from prison, in order to facilitate farming, Maoshan and Wenlong reclaimed all the slopes on both sides and planted millet.Droughts and floods have occurred in recent years, and the floods have become more severe every year. The Jiutan ditch that has been cultivated all year round has been torn apart by the floods. The flat land became slanted, and the fertile soil at the bottom of the ditch was washed away layer by layer. There were fewer and fewer good lands for growing corn, and the yield was not as good as each year.

After Lao Jia was released from prison, he once mentioned to Pi Dou that a dam should be built at the mouth of the wine jar to protect the soil and fertilizer.This is what Jia Shunxiang learned when he was serving a sentence in a labor reform.The labor reform farm where Lao Jia served his sentence has not left northern Shaanxi, it is in a deep mountain ditch in the north.A research institution on Yellow River governance cooperated with the Laogai farm to carry out research on water and soil conservation: building terraces and planting fruit trees, the most important of which was building dams and repairing fields, using the labor of these prisoners to build earth dams in the ravines.Lao Jia saw with his own eyes that once the flood was over, the earth dam built would silt out a large area of ​​flat land.The researchers told them that the soil on the hillside was washed down by the flood and blocked behind the dam.This simple truth hit Jia Shunxiang's brain: Lengmiaogou has a lot of ditches and forks, if they can be dammed, how much land will be leveled out!As for going to open up wasteland and expand planting?

He returned to the village with the ability and ideal to build the dam.The village has lost his right to speak.Li Baodou has no interest in farming, let alone Duidaba.Ignore his suggestions.Lao Jia was disheartened, didn't want to fight, and buried himself in his own life.But the Jia family has always had an urge to start a business, and the longing for damming has always troubled Lao Jia. He believes that only damming can solve the problem of food and clothing in Lengmiaogou. For all the ditches, he noted down the places where dams can be built and the easiest places to achieve. Li Pidou looked at these places coldly in his heart.

"Come and lead everyone to build the dam of Jiutangou. Now the central government is calling on Dazhai to learn from Dazhai, and Dazhai is also famous for building dams." Pi Dou immediately led the conversation to the topic.

Lao Jia put down the rice can, turned his head to look at Pi Dou, his eyes were piercing, he didn't speak for a long time, love and hatred welled up in his heart.

Pi Dou knew how much his father's sins had left in Lao Jia's heart, so he himself would not have a good image in Lao Jia's heart.With his current status and experience, he doesn't care what Lao Jia thinks at all.He calmly said to Lao Jia:

"I'm already the leader of the county, so it's not convenient to be the secretary of this brigade anymore. After asking around, only you are the right one. You have experience, prestige, and ideas. You can't just watch the situation of our village deteriorate every year. New year, come and lead us suffering people, build dams and build land, everyone is full, and you will also win glory for our village! At that time, I will set you up as a model of Dazhai."

Lao Jia's gaze slowed down, but he was still puzzled.

"Your party membership has always been reserved for you. What a mistake. You don't need to go through the formalities, and you can take office immediately. You see, Blessed, Hegui, and Shusheng cooperate with you. You don't need me and the Li family alone. Uncle, but Sincerely let you go out of the mountain."

With a sincere look, Lao Jiaxin said that this kid is much smarter than his father, and there is no reason to refute it, even if it is a trap, he will jump into it, not to mention that he really wants to realize his dream of building dams and repairing fields .

When Lao Jia took office, the first thing he did was to build the dam of Jiutangou every year, and every year it was washed away by the flood, until the educated youth came.

The second thing is to get agricultural production and brigade administration on the right track.Li Pidou didn't care about the specific affairs of the team for many years, production and administration were a mess.Although Li Pidou got a team, it was only suitable for power control, not for agricultural production and administrative management. Therefore, a set of powerful production and management organizations must be established.Of course, it is not to fight against Li Pi, it is not to shake the foundation of the team, neither to break the balance of power, but also to have an effective management organization.Lao Jia is not someone who can be manipulated by others. Since he is allowed to take the stage, he must have the space and stage to display his skills.

production.Tree work is okay, and he also understands farm work, but his mind is not clear and his speech is not strong.Lao Jia appointed Li Baojing as the vice captain and Han Shenggen as the team leader.

Baojing is domineering, daring to fight, scold, and charge into battle; the key point is that he is a family member with the surname Li, and he is of the same generation as Pidou, but he has been out of the fifth service earlier.The Li family is powerful, and there must be someone who can control the Li family. Whoever wants to offend the Li family all day long, Baojing and Shusheng can complement each other.But if you don't join the branch committee, that means you don't count as a member of the team.But this Li Baojing is too domineering, and he can't hold back because of his temper. Lao Jia has been thinking about how to check and balance this bastard.

Lao Jia is most opposed to foreign surname settlement. The land is getting poorer and the population is increasing.There were not many Jia family members in Lengmiaogou. After Lao Jia came back, he was very dissatisfied when he saw that other clansmen of several surnames had settled down many relatives in the village.Duan Desheng left Luwa's family behind, and Li Baocai fell into Du Youlan's family. He also had two small fights, forcing Lvwa to build a big white donkey.But the Li family was powerful, and Li Pidou came to power, so he let him go.After he became the secretary, on the one hand, he felt dissatisfied, and on the other hand, he consolidated the political power. After the educated youths came, there were more people with foreign surnames, so he simply settled a distant nephew Wang Kunshan (from his mother's natal family) in Lengmiaogou, and settled there. vice captain.Kun Shan doesn't speak much, has a stubborn temper, and is not tall, but he is as strong as a bull.Li Baojing refused to accept it, and when he was damming the Jiutangou, he deliberately teased and talked nonsense, accusing Sang and scolding Huai, "Where did you come from, you don't even have the skills, can you be the captain of our Lengmiaogou people?" Standing in front of Bao Jing, with rounded eyes and clenched fists, she didn't speak, only panting heavily.Bao Jing is not a good stubble, he is looking forward to a challenge to boost his domineering spirit.With a stride, he jumped down from the slope, with his palms facing his chest, and the hungry tiger pounced on its food.Kun Shan didn't move a step, instead he twisted his palms towards him.Hearing an "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", Baojing fell to his side with his palms in his arms, his face turned pale from the pain.Still dissatisfied, he turned up and stood up the slope again, yelling, it was unbearable.Wang Kunshan was short of breath, and after a few steps, he also chased up the slope.Li Baojing jumped up and kicked Kunshan's chest with both feet.Kun Shan took advantage of the situation and squatted forward, pushing Bao Jing into a Monkey King somersault, his head touching the ground and rolling downhill, his face and mouth covered in dirt.After two rounds, Baojing lost his temper. Since then, the well water did not interfere with the river water, and each led the villagers to go up the mountain to suffer.Lao Jia secretly sneered at the side.

Han Shenggen was careful, Lao Jia observed for a long time, and found that he remembered the population of the whole village, the size of the land, and the seasons and solar terms clearly. Cao Wenlong also introduced to Lao Jia that Shenggen was recognized as a good hand in agricultural production in Lengmiaogou.It would be great for him to cooperate with Shen Youfu to direct the production, but unfortunately his family status is not good, and he is the son-in-law of a landlord. Giving him the title of team leader has already promoted him, but he will not be able to join the team.The sufferers couldn't tell the titles of the team leader and group leader, they were all shopkeepers who went to the ground to suffer, but Han Shenggen's leadership ability was higher than that of Baojing and Kunshan.

management.Duan Hegui is a nerd, he doesn't care about other things, so he can't be counted on.In addition, the matter of Duan Hesheng's complaint made Lao Jia very worried.So Duan Hegui was asked to just settle the accounts, find someone else to manage the financial power, no longer support the committee, and remove the leadership team.Since then, the old practice of accountants on duty in Lengmiaogou has been changed.

There is a big ditch to the north of Lengmiaogou, but there is a small village called Guotagou.In fact, Guotagou and Lengmiaogou lived in the same village in the early years.The people in Guotagou were hired by Lengmiaogou to raise horses and sheep.Later, the war slowed down, the bandits became rarer, and the war horses were not very useful. Lengmiaogou didn't care much about Guotagou, and Guotagou lived on its own and continued.However, in recent years, Kashin-Beck Disease has occurred in Guotagou. It is said that it is a water problem, causing panic.At this time, the commune mobilized Guotagou and Lengmiaogou to merge the villages for the convenience of management.Several families in Guotagou moved here in order to avoid Kaschin-Beck disease.Hu Fengsan (Hu Ganda, Hu Laosan) was one of them, and he used to be the secretary of Guotagou.After Lao Jia came back, he observed for a long time and liked his character and ability.This time when he came to power, he dragged Hu Laosan into the branch committee, so he was considered a member of the team.In charge of finance, public security and other related administration.

Li Pidou watched from the sidelines: Duan Hegui is indeed an idiot, it is understandable that Lao Jia would not be in power with his enemies.Hu Fengsan's son "Ku Xian'er" said that Duan Jiaohua, the daughter of the Duan family, was married to her son and daughter even though she hadn't been married yet.It's a balance between the two people going out and going in, so they acquiesced.

According to the regulations above, women must participate in politics, and the brigade must have women captains.But in remote mountain villages like Lengmiaogou, women have no status at all, so Li Pidou's team list does not include women captains.This cannot be explained to the superiors. Many tasks and meetings are designated by the superiors for women captains (or directors) to attend.After Jia Shunxiang came to power, he found out that only two of Lengmiaogou's aunts were party members, one was Duan Hesheng and the other was Shen Youfu.They all joined the party at their natal homes when they were girls, and they all did women's work.One is pungent and the other is virtuous.Lao Jia wants Gui Zhiniang, Shen Youfu avoids suspicion and disagrees; Lao Hu thinks about his in-laws, but also disagrees.Shusheng leads the production, tired of bickering with his birth mother-in-law and bossy manner, he agrees with Gui Zhiniang.Lao Jia asked his own mother-in-law and Shunmao's mother-in-law, and they all said that Mrs. Guizhi was good.Shun Mao said: "When Sister-in-law Lan was seriously ill, besides the official mother, Gui Zhiniang came the most." One sentence aroused love and hatred, and wanted to promote democracy, so Gui Zhiniang was fixed immediately.Lao Jia said that it was settled like this, everyone had nothing to say, a mother-in-law and aunt, it doesn't matter.Every time there is a meeting, Gui Zhiniang sits in a corner, only listening to the audience, never speaking.But no matter what work is assigned, there is nothing that cannot be completed.Later, Lao Hu often asked her to help manage the work of the educated youth, because there were still a few female educated youths, and it was inconvenient for him to ask.Gui Zhiniang took the initiative to take care of the collective stove, no matter how busy or tired she was.

The village-level management organization during the movement was not as simple as just a few people.There should also be revolutionary committees, poor and lower-middle peasant associations, women's committees, regiment branches, militia companies, and other corresponding institutions. For a remote mountain village with dozens of households, these institutions may never be of any use at all, but they are always needed. To deal with all kinds of meetings and inspections from above, people and things should always be arranged according to the occasion, and it may be too late to cram.Suffering people can't understand (hàibuhà) and don't care about these things, hold a meeting, mention a name, raise a hand, and disperse in a hurry.It is considered that there are a group of people who are suitable for the occasion, and they never do specific things. After a long time, they don’t even know what positions they hold: the director of the Revolutionary Committee is of course Lao Jia; the director of the Poor Association Wu Demao and the director of the Women’s Committee , Youth League branch secretary Duan Hegui.The militia company commander cannot be left alone. Li Pidou said that the power comes out of the barrel of a gun, and it is the captain Liu Shusheng who is responsible (in fact, there is not even a gun, not a single soldier).A group of committee members went home with empty names in their bewilderment.

The branch committee has become the power center of Lengmiaogou.How many officials are installed in the village, if they don't join the branch committee, they won't do anything.When you join the branch committee, even if you don't wear an official, you can still manage major affairs.For example, Hu Laosan and Hu Ganda were neither the captain nor the secretary. They were in charge of many things: finances, farm tools, seeds, livestock (all cattle, donkeys and sheep, six large circles), security, homesteads, and later educated youth affairs.

The battle between Lao Jia and Pi Dou over the village power has been performed in Lengmiaogou ever since.This discussion on the work arrangement of the educated youth exposed this contradiction again.Lao Jia's departure does not mean the failure or victory of any faction, but the historical romance of the long-term struggle of interpersonal relationships in Lengmiaogou. The issue of educated youth is just an episode of this historical romance.

The author has something to say:

A historical tragedy is caused by historical grievances, power, love and hatred, ecology and survival.The recurrence of the Lengmiaogou regime is pregnant with even greater tragedies.This is the important highlight of the contradictions and conflicts in the work.
