Hong Cheng stretched out his hand, and Tong Dagui took Hong Cheng's woolen jacket and put it on him.
Hong Cheng still disliked Han Dagui in his heart and felt that his subordinate was ineffective. Han Dagui put on his clothes and made suggestions: "Director Hong, when has our Revolutionary Committee ever suffered a loss?"
"I'm going to beat that crazy woman of yours today, and I'll never let her go."
Tong Dagui cursed: "Damn it, don't even think about having a good New Year. I'll organize the brothers to tell you, Director, that you'll make their family restless during the New Year."
"If you dare to hit the director, you will blind them!"
Hong Cheng was so angry that he kicked Tong Dagui: "Who the hell are you scolding? If I can offend that woman, I will be beaten to death by her."
"Think about it with your pig brain, she hit someone, why didn't I smash the Peace Brigade's pharmacy?"
"Is Secretary Qin here?"
Tong Dagui took a guess at Qin Yanyue.
Hong Cheng said nothing and continued to guess: "Or is there a man in military uniform next to that woman?"
"What the hell, am I afraid of a mere little battalion commander?"
Hong Cheng slapped Tong Dagui on the head: "I have many connections in the capital. Han Xiumei has a good father. I can't afford to offend you, don't you know? I got the news that he is going to be transferred from the northwest to work in the province."
"That old guy protected the calf at the risk of his own life. If anyone dares to touch his daughter, he will tear apart his daughter's bones."
Hong Cheng gave Tong Dagui another slap on the head: "If you are not afraid of tearing a hole in the sky, you will go to hell and I will ascend to heaven with you."
The reason why Hong Cheng tolerated Han Xiumei, a crazy woman, was because he heard the news that Mr. Han was going to be transferred to the provincial capital.
Moreover, this news is consistent with the news from the capital.
The capital's policies have been loosened a lot recently. Those who were criticized before are slowly being used. There are also a group of old revolutionaries who were transferred to the bitter and cold places in the northwest to suffer, and they can all hold important positions after their return.
Using Tong Dagui as a punching bag, he kicked and hit him, which made Hong Cheng feel better about the shame and humiliation he suffered from Han Xiumei.
I still couldn't recover from taking a bath in the river, so I sneezed heavily.
He kicked Tong Dagui: "Go away, go back to the county seat, and be obedient to me from now on. If I point to the east, don't hit the west..."
After Hong Cheng was beaten up by Han Xiumei and left with his thug, Qin Yanyue wanted to accompany his comrade and his family, so he left Zhao Ming here in the medicine shop to help Zhou Changqing deal with the aftermath.
Because of Zhou Changqing's toughness, the pharmacy didn't suffer much loss.
But Hong Cheng's thugs kicked over several baskets of medicines, and the medicines were washed and dried and still used.
Then, it’s time to appease Professor Yin and the others.
Professor Yin, in particular, has been feeling uncomfortable these past few days. He was forcibly tied up by bandits and bullies, and his wrists were all bruised.
After Zhou Changqing applied the medicated oil on him, he took his pulse again: "I was frightened, and I have to recover for a few days. You were originally suffering from this disease, but after my aunt's treatment, it is almost healed."
"Hong Cheng brought his people here suddenly today and blocked me in the medicine shop. It's because I failed to protect you."
Professor Yin’s eyes turned red!
Today he thought that the nightmare he had in the capital was going to happen again, but things ended in this way. Comrade Han Xiumei's beatings were really too domineering.
The Yuqi that had been tied up after being intruded and treated roughly by people from the Revolutionary Committee was dissipated by Comrade Han carrying a basket of pig intestines.
"Son, how can I blame you for this? You usually help Husband Bai and are enough to take care of us. Zhilan and Yuquan are still here, how could you leave us alone?"
"The man surnamed Hong is overbearing, and there is nothing you can do about it. The pharmacy also has to protect him. After all, it is Husband Bai's hard work."
Professor Yin patted Zhou Changqing lovingly: "Don't worry about me, this old guy. It's a false alarm. Just lie down for two days."
After talking to Zhou Changqing, Professor Yin looked at Zhao Ming standing aside.
He explained: "You go back and tell Yan Yue that there is nothing wrong with me, just lie down for two days and he will be fine. It is such a troubled time, so stop him from coming to see me."
"You worry too much!"
Zhao Ming comforted him: "Such a thing will never happen again. This time Secretary Qin went to the station to pick someone up, and we were a step late."
Yin Fan's eyes were already red and swollen, but fortunately Zhou Changqing checked his pulse and found that his grandfather was fine.
Two women, Zhou Zhilan and Professor Kong, were also greatly frightened.
Everyone thought there was no escape.
At the critical moment, it was Bai Su who brought a group of commune members with bamboo poles, rolled up a pile of dust, and came to kill them fiercely.
In this troubled time, everyone is sweeping their own troubles, but there are people who stand up and carry Hong Cheng for them and never back down, which makes them feel very warm and have a love for this land and its people.
"It's okay!"
Zhou Changqing blamed herself and felt sad, and Zhou Zhilan comforted her: "Today's situation is nothing. In the past, at Baiyun Farm, your uncle and I would be caught, hanged, and paraded through the streets every ten days and a half."
"It's the same as what Mr. Yin said, but it was just a false alarm and a skin injury."
Zhou Zhilan smiled at her nephew: "I'll let Aunt Kong cook me a bowl of broth later to calm the panic of the rest of us."
His aunt was still asking for food at this time. Zhou Changqing believed that she was really fine. He was smiling and talking to several people in the room when a familiar voice came from outside.
"Is it here? Is Zhou Changqing here?"
It sounds like an orchid?
Because Hong Cheng and his men made such a fuss, Zhou Changqing became wary. When he heard that Zhao Qingrou was leading Lanhua, he hurriedly opened the door.
After Professor Yin was frightened, a charcoal fire was already burning in the room.
Lanhua came in carrying a bag of things. She felt that the room was warm, so she put the bag on the table.
"My uncle and aunt's family came back. My mother made a big pot of stewed vegetables and asked me to bring a bowl to add some vegetables. I also brought a cup of the abalone and chicken soup that my mother stewed to help Grandpa Yin replenish his health."
Lanhua took out a large bowl of stewed vegetables from the bag, and brought out the chicken soup in an enamel jar.
Bai Su thought carefully, knowing that Professor Kong and Yin Fan might not be thinking about cooking today because of Hong Cheng's troubles, so he brought over a large bag of white-flour steamed buns steaming in the pot.
When Zhou Zhilan smelled this smell, her stomach growled loudly with hunger.
Professor Kong's eyes also lit up: "I, Sister Bai, don't even have to cook for lunch now. There are steamed buns and meat dishes."
Bai Su was worried that Shan'ao and the others would be frightened and couldn't leave with her brother-in-law and Zhan Peng for a while, so she asked Lanhua to send some food over.
Seeing that they all wanted to eat, Lan Hua felt that the problem was not big.
"Aunt, Aunt Kong, my uncle and aunt brought back a lot of dried fruits. I'll give you some as snacks to play with. There are also longans and dried lychees. When you make the broth, put some aside and stew them with the tonic herbs.
Come and replenish Grandpa Yin’s health.”
After Lanhua finished delivering the things, she called Zhao Ming to go home for dinner.
She stopped and looked at Zhou Changqing: "You should go back at noon. Mom said that if there is nothing else at the pharmacy, you can also go home for dinner and meet your uncle, aunt, and family."
