Chapter 17: The Fan Family's Enemy in the Past Life
In the office of Yuanping Brigade Headquarters.
It was exactly twelve o'clock when Fan Lili brought the meal.
At this time, Liu Yan had just returned to the brigade headquarters from the fields.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Liu Yan immediately turned around.
When he saw Fan Lili coming in, a bad smile appeared on his face and he stared at her pretty face: "You're here?! Have you rested?"
Fan Lili heard the overtone of Liu Yan's words, and her face immediately turned red.
After glancing at him, he lowered his head, pursed his lips, and nodded: "Yes!"
Immediately, she put the steamed buns and millet porridge on the table from inside the cage cloth.
Then, he said shyly: "Eat it while it's hot!"
Seeing that his lunch turned out to be steamed buns stuffed with meat fillings, Liu Yan suddenly smiled and his appetite increased.
Since his rebirth, he has been satisfied with everything about his current life, except for food, which he can't help complaining about.
Although he had only been in this world for two days and had only eaten two meals of whole grains, the vegetable pancakes and black-faced steamed buns made his stomach feel uncomfortable.
Liu Yan couldn't help but kiss Fan Lili on the face, and then picked up a fist-sized meat bun. When he was about to stuff it into his mouth, he suddenly thought of something and stopped: "Have you eaten?"
"Eat, I came here after eating!" Fan Lili said truthfully.
"Why don't you bring a few more? Dad will be here soon."
"I did a lot of cooking today. Except for the nine left for the two of us, the rest were all sent to the old house.
After a while, mother will deliver the buns to the field!" Fan Lili said.
Liu Yan smiled and said: "You are so thoughtful!"
Just as he was talking, the sound of homespun shoes hitting the ground came from outside the office.
Immediately afterwards, Huang Guozhu, the captain of the production team, walked in from outside with his third son Huang Jinmu.
The moment he saw Huang Guozhu, Liu Yan's heart was shocked, and a picture of what happened to the Fan family in his previous life appeared in his mind...
If we say that the original owner of her previous life abandoned and destroyed Fan Lili’s hope in life.
Then, Huang Guozhu and the entire Huang family's oppression and persecution were the main culprits that destroyed the Fan family.
Thinking of this, Liu Yan couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly.
However, he did not take action.
It's not that he doesn't want to beat this guy up, but he feels that at this time, beating people will not solve the problem, and will also give others a lesson.
Especially since his current status is that of an educated youth who went to the mountains and countryside, it would be troublesome if he was accused of not accepting re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants honestly.
Besides, at this moment, none of the things in the previous life have happened yet.
And since he was reborn into this life, he would never let this tragedy happen.
…
After seeing the two people in the room and the meat buns on the table, Huang Guozhu couldn't help but his eyes lit up and he swallowed subconsciously.
Then, he snorted coldly and said: "My eldest niece, your Fan family's food is really good. It's not out of date or seasonal, but you can actually eat meat buns!"
Listening to Huang Guozhu's strange words, Liu Yan couldn't help but get angry and go up.
He calmed down and said calmly: "Why do you feel a little sour after hearing Captain Huang's words?!
With your family background, Captain Huang, you can’t even afford a meal of meat buns, right?"
"Liu Yan, what are you talking about? We can still afford a meal of steamed buns.
It’s just that our Huang family has a simple family style and is not as flamboyant and extravagant as you!”
Liu Yan heard this and said coldly: "Captain Huang, you are a little over the top.
Is a meal of steamed buns a show of luxury?
If you want to put it this way, those workers in the factories in the city eat steamed buns all day long. Are they living a luxurious life?
Believe it or not, I will go to the commune and the county to sue you now, saying that you are spreading rumors, slandering the great working class, slandering the happy life of socialism as extravagance, and destroying the class feelings between workers and peasants!"
Hearing what Liu Yan said, Huang Guozhu's face suddenly darkened, and then he said angrily: "I didn't say it, so don't slap me with a big label!"
Huang Jinmu on the side stared at Liu Yan and said, "My dad just thinks that everyone is in the same team.
Other families are in dire straits, and some families have no food at all and rely entirely on wild vegetables and bark.
But your Fan family only eats white flour, fine grains, and meat. What do you think the other members will think?"
Liu Yan glanced at Huang Jinmu and thought to himself, it seems that this boy has really studied for a few years. He is now a substitute teacher in the village primary school. He speaks in a refined manner, and he is indeed quite good.
However, Liu Yan still said calmly: "Huangjinmu, have you ever thought about why the members don't pick up the green leaves and why they eat bark and wild vegetables?
Shouldn't we ask how your father became the captain?"
"What do you mean by this?" Huang Guozhu asked loudly after hearing this.
"What do you mean? Don't you know clearly? Or are you pretending to be confused? You are the captain of the production team and are in charge of production.
The food surplus at home of the commune members cannot last for a year. Isn't it your responsibility as the captain?
Doesn't it mean that you, the captain, are incompetent?" Liu Yan said slowly and sharply.
"According to what you said, Fan Yanping is still the village party secretary. Does he have to bear greater responsibility?"
Liu Yan smiled faintly and said in a deep voice: "The main job of the village party secretary is to coordinate the overall situation and be in charge of the ideological trends of the village members.
Production matters mainly depend on the leader of the production team.
Therefore, whether the members are hungry or not is a problem for you, the captain.
Don’t quibble! Don’t shirk your responsibilities! Don’t explain! Captain Huang, it seems you have a guilty conscience and are trying to hide it, right?!”
Talking nonsense and sophistry, Liu Yan had never been afraid of anyone in his previous life! He is even less afraid of anyone in this life.
What's more, the opponent is still a big boss like Huang Guozhu. With just a few words, he can be beaten to death and rendered speechless.
"you you......"
Sure enough, Huang Guozhu puffed his beard and stared, his chest heaving with anger, but he couldn't say a word.
Liu Yan took the last meat bun into his stomach in a few mouthfuls, deliberately smacked his lips, and burped twice before wrapping the aluminum lunch box containing the porridge in a cloth again.
Then he took Fan Lili's hand and walked out of the brigade headquarters without looking back.
