Chapter 156 Village Chief
Chapter 156 Village Chief
The first snow in Xishui Village since the beginning of winter was both expected and unexpected.
The old people in the village had said it was going to snow a long time ago, and it did snow, but only half a month later.
At this time, there was already a lot of noise coming from the villagers, and everyone at the educated youth site had also gotten up.
Lin Qingyan first returned to the educated youth point, then hurried from the space to the modern world. After delivering the vegetables to the store, she rushed back without any pause.
He started to wash up after he came back. When he was about to go out to find the village chief, Ye Yi opened the door and stopped him.
"Qingyan, it's snowing so heavily outside, are you still going out?"
Lin Qingyan looked at the snow that reached her knees and said to Ye Yi, "I'm going to the village chief's house. I have something to ask him."
"Have you had breakfast?"
"Not yet, come back and eat later! I'm leaving now."
"Wait a minute, I have prepared breakfast, you can eat a little first to fill your stomach."
After saying that, Ye Yi ran to the kitchen, took out a big steamed bun from the pot and handed it to her.
Lin Qingyan took it, put it in her mouth and took a bite, then waved to her and walked straight into the village.
The heavy snow covered the entire village, and the road was all white. Lin Qingyan relied on her legs to carve out a "snow road" for herself.
The people passing by along the way were all clearing the snow from their roofs and yards. Lin Qingyan walked to the brigade headquarters and found that there were already people there.
She thought about it and decided to go to the brigade headquarters first. As soon as she entered, she saw the village chief sitting there discussing something with a few people.
"It snowed heavily last night. We will arrange for people to visit each house to see if any of them are damaged."
"Okay, Uncle Wang, I'll make the arrangements later!"
"During the snow, we also need to ask if the food has been eaten up. If not, the village can lend them some. They can pay it back when the food is distributed next year."
The captain and the accountant nodded while one of them took notes in a notebook.
Lin Qingyan stood at the door and waited for a while. Seeing that they had no intention of stopping for the time being, she reached out and knocked on the door. The people in the room were none other than the village chief, the team leader and the village accountant.
Li Genshu had just noticed her and deliberately did not stop, but now she knocked on the door, and he could not pretend not to see it in front of the village chief.
So he asked with a straight face: "Lin Zhiqing, is there anything wrong?"
Lin Qingyan understood what he meant, which was not to disturb them unless necessary.
But she didn't care and walked in directly, looking serious at Li Genshu and others.
"Hello, village chief, team leader. When I got up this morning, I saw snow outside, so I decided to go down to the foot of the mountain to see if I could catch a live rabbit."
Before Lin Qingyan could finish her words, she heard the impatient voice of Captain Li Genshu.
"Lin Zhiqing, it's freezing cold and snowy, so don't run around and cause trouble for us. Go back to the Zhiqing point quickly. It's best not to go out for the next few days."
Lin Qingyan gritted her teeth in her heart but didn't show it on her face.
The village chief glanced at Li Genshu, who paused and said nothing. The village chief smiled and said to Lin Qingyan:
"Xiao Lin, your uncle Li doesn't dislike you running around. He is worried about you and the safety of the village."
Li Genshu was silent after hearing this. What did he mean by not disliking her running around? He obviously disliked her very much and didn't want to see this child at all.
"Thank you Uncle Li for your concern. I will be careful about my safety." As soon as Lin Qingyan said this,
Li Genshu choked and the village chief also paused. This girl is so shameless.
He coughed lightly, smiled gently at Lin Qingyan, and asked directly without keeping her in suspense.
"Xiao Lin Zhiqing, you came here now, is there anything you need us to do?"
Lin Qingyan also said seriously at this time: "The village chief said that I just passed by the cowshed and saw that the house in the cowshed collapsed."
Li Genshu heard the cowshed frowning in disdain, but the village chief was startled when he heard that the cowshed had collapsed, and he stood up suddenly and asked.
"The cowshed collapsed?"
Seeing how nervous he was, Lin Qingyan said, "When I came, a corner of the cowshed had collapsed and someone was injured. There was still snow on top of the cowshed. I don't know if it will collapse again."
"Lin Zhiqing, how did you know someone was injured? Did you go into the bullpen?"
"Is anyone injured? Who is injured? Is it serious?"
Li Genshu and the village chief's questions came at the same time, and their focus was completely different. Lin Qingyan sighed in her heart. Fortunately, Xishui Village had a village chief. If they relied on Li Genshu, their lives would be even more difficult.
Lin Qingyan didn't know whether to answer or not, or whose question to answer!
Seeing her hesitation, the village chief asked her again directly, "Who is injured? Is the injury serious?"
"I don't know the injured man's name, but I heard others call him Lao Lu."
Lin Qingyan didn't know who Gu Yizhou's uncle was. Gu Yizhou only said that his uncle and teacher were inside. But when she looked at the injured person, she found that he looked a bit like Gu Yizhou. The nephew looks like his uncle, so that old Lu should be Gu Yizhou's uncle.
When the village chief heard this, his heart tightened. He knew more and also knew that these people had a high status before. They were sent to Xishui Village for reform, and they must have been taken care of by someone above them.
As the village chief, he couldn't help much, but he didn't have to criticize them from time to time like the people in other villages did.
"Let's go and take a look." The village chief stood up and prepared to leave.
Li Genshu refused directly: "Uncle, that's the cowshed, we don't have to worry about it!"
The village chief looked up at him carefully.
"That is the cowshed, the cowshed of Xishui Village. No matter who they were before, who they are now, or who they will be in the future,
But as long as they are in Xishui Village, Xishui Village needs to take care of them. They can ignore their food and drink, but they cannot ignore their life and death.
If they were injured or killed in Xishui Village due to the snow, do you think we could escape?"
Li Genshu was still a little dissatisfied. "It was caused by the snow, a natural disaster, not something we caused intentionally."
"But now we know that a corner of the bullpen collapsed. If we didn't deal with it and it collapsed more, then the casualties would be intentional on our part.
Although they have lost their power now, who can tell what will happen in the future? Aren't you afraid of revenge from their families? "
The village chief looked at Li Genshu with disappointment. He had thought that Li Genshu was a little selfish before, but he could understand that. He could understand taking care of his own family and the entire Li family.
But he really couldn't understand why someone was so narrow-minded, only caring about personal interests and not considering the collective interests at all.
Is it really good for such a person to be the leader of Xishui Village? The village chief sighed in his heart and waited and saw!
After listening to the village chief's reprimand, Li Genshu just said softly, "I understand."
He stopped talking, and I didn't know whether he really knew it or not.
"Xiao Lin, let's go and take a look together," the village chief walked to the door and said to Lin Qingyan who was still standing.
Then he instructed the accountant next to him: "Go to the village doctor's house and call him over, then go directly to the cowshed to see the injured."
