Chapter Sixteen
Socialism is one family, and the national unit level is parallel. Chen Bei is the deputy section chief, Ma Chunhua is the secretary of the Youth League Committee at the full-time section level, and the police are just ordinary clerks. When they meet the two leaders, they are naturally polite and easy to say anything. As for the woman who lost her pancake, she has no objection.
A piece of cake is not worth much money and cannot meet the sentencing standards. Re-education through labor is decided by the public security organs independently. Whether to work or not is just a matter of one sentence. If two leaders plead with each other, the thief will naturally not deal with it. He scolds him and gets out of here.
When the thief went out, he suddenly turned around and knelt on the ground, knelt down to Chen Bei and Ma Chunhua, and said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you uncle, thank you aunt." He pounded his head and knocked on the ground.
Ma Chunhua's face turned red. Why did she become uncle and aunt? How did she say this?
However, I can't blame others for misunderstandings. They are all young cadres in the same factory, with similar levels, and they are all made of a pair. In the evening, a man and a woman were walking on the street. What else can they be if they don't have a partner?
After leaving the police station, Ma Chunhua's anger had faded a lot. She said: "I can't tell that you have a sense of justice. You draw your sword to help you when you see injustice. It is in line with the moral quality requirements of revolutionary cadres. However, your mercy is used in the wrong place. That little thief is not worthy of sympathy. The dog cannot change the shit. If you help him this time, he will steal it next time."
Chen Beidao: "I was so hungry that I did everything. When I was a child, I stole other people's things, but I was beaten up by my mother before I changed it."
Ma Chunhua said: "Just tell me, you are the eldest master of the exploiting class, how can you go hungry?"
Chen Beidao: "I have been traveling with my mother since I was born, performing arts on the streets. I have grown up until I was eleven years old to recognize my ancestors. I have suffered a lot in this world. I know more than anyone else what it feels like to be poor."
Ma Chunhua was shocked. She only knew that Chen Bei was a playboy, but she didn't expect that she would have such an experience.
"What are you doing for me?" Chen Bei suddenly asked.
"Oh, what's the story about what you wrote? It's full of foreign articles. Are you bullying poor and lower-middle peasants and don't know foreign languages?" Ma Chunhua's anger was no longer so angry, but she still had a thorn.
"I didn't go to school when I was a child and I had fewer words to recognize. Later, I forced myself to take classes in the United States for a few days. I only had 26 letters in English, which was easier to learn than Chinese characters, so I wrote English." Chen Bei argued that in fact, he deliberately wanted Ma Chunhua to not understand. The so-called experience was just copying the content of an English novel.
Unexpectedly, this explanation was accepted by Ma Chunhua: "I didn't expect that you were also a poor child, so I won't pursue you for the time being. Let's continue to study politics tomorrow and come to my dormitory after get off work."
...
The next day, Chen Bei came to Ma Chunhua's dormitory as promised. Ma Chunhua brought him a cup of boiled water and a handful of fried peanuts. This time he didn't take the newspaper, but said: "Chen Bei, the newspaper of Death is useless. Let me tell you about my personal experience."
So Ma Chunhua told her story. She was born in a poor peasant family in Nantai County. Her father was beaten to death because she owed the landlord the debt of the king of hell. Her mother jumped into the well and committed suicide, leaving behind alone. On a windy and snowy night, the landlord was drunk and broke into the small straw shed of the Ma family, trying to ***k Ma Chunhua, who was fifteen years old, cut off the things below with her sickle. It was from this time that Ma Chunhua joined the revolutionary team.
"Later, how did this landlord end?" Chen Bei was fascinated by the hearing, sometimes clenched his fists, sometimes exhale and relax, and was deeply attracted by Ma Chunhua's narration.
"Later, I was liberated, and this landlord with no eggs was caught by the land reform team. I walked a hundred miles back and shot him in person." Ma Chunhua said lightly.
"It's good to kill, it's good to kill." Chen Bei blurted out.
Ma Chunhua looked up at him and felt that the eldest young master's face did not seem so hateful, and his mentality was not so dark. At least he was sympathetic to the revolution and could be saved.
"I'm done, tell me your story." Ma Chunhua said, she was preparing to transform and save Chen Bei by heart-to-heart talk.
"My story is nothing to say. I practice martial arts when I was a child, and when I grew up, I drove planes to fight Japan. During the Anti-Japanese War, I was a member of the Flying Tigers and had once shot twenty-eight Japanese planes."
"Brave." Ma Chunhua said.
"This is a formal record, and I have also won the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal." Chen Beidao.
Ma Chunhua changed her face: "That kind of medal is not honor, but shame."
Chen Bei was also anxious: "Why is the medal obtained from Japan a shame? Explain it clearly to me."
This time the study ended in an unhappy way.
...
It is the end of the year, and the Central Committee issued the "Instructions on the Anti-Corruption Struggle Must Be Promoted with Great Fantasy". A month later, the "Instructions on the Large-scale Resolute and Complete "Five Anti-Corruption" Struggle in the City" was issued.
The massive Three Anti-Five Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Movement kicked off. The movement began first in major cities, with Liu Qingshan, the former deputy secretary of the Shijiazhuang Municipal Party Committee, and Zhang Zishan, the former secretary of the Tianjin Prefectural Party Committee, being sentenced to death to reach **.
The Five Anti-Anti-Movement repelled the rampant attacks of capitalists and established a worker supervision system in private enterprises. The old society's trick of bribery and tax evasion was completely cured.
A large-scale three-anti-command movement was also carried out within Jiangbei United Machinery Company, organizing and calling on workers to report and expose, and uncovering a group of cadres who were corrupted by bourgeois thought, cleaning up the cadre team and purifying the organization.
Ma Chunhua was busy with the leisure of the Three Anti-Five Anti-Japanese movement, and she did not forget to provide assistance and education to Chen Bei. However, the two's opposition had slowed down a lot at this time, and they were chatting like ordinary friends.
One day, Chen Bei saw the only photo of Ma Chunhua in the photo frame, and asked, "Why have you never seen a photo of Yang Shugen?"
Ma Chunhua said: "Why do you want to take a photo with him?"
Chen Beidao: "Aren't you a couple?"
"Of course not, that's just a cover for his identity. I have a pure comrade-in-arms relationship, nothing else." Ma Chunhua quickly explained that she was Huanghua's eldest daughter, and she was embarrassed to be misunderstood as a young wife.
Chen Bei said, "That's how it's not like that."
Ma Chunhua immediately asked what was going on, what was the matter with one white and two gold.
Chen Bei remained silent and was unwilling to mention it again.
At night, Ma Chunhua tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. She always recalled Chen Bei's words of 100 taels of gold. She suspected that this matter was related to her release from the execution ground, because she had asked the relevant enemy workers who saved her and had never got an answer.
Chen Bei was unwilling to say that Ma Chunhua had some solutions. She found the regional public security department and asked to review the files and find the parties involved. However, the relevant members of the Kuomintang were either suppressed or fled. After working hard, they found a name, which was the bearded man who was released on the execution ground.
Ma Chunhua found a bearded man sentenced to life imprisonment in the labor reform farm. He told Ma Chunhua that someone did spend gold to save her life, and that everyone got benefits, and the person who bribed was a wife of Chen Zikun.
"Does Chen Zikun's wife need to spend money if she wants to save someone?" Ma Chunhua was a little puzzled.
"Report to the government, the reactionary Kuomintang authorities are extremely corrupt. Even if insiders want to do anything, they have to spend money to bribe them and handle things from top to bottom, otherwise things will be difficult to handle." said the bearded man.
Now that happened, Ma Chunhua finally realized that her life was not rescued by the organization, but by Chen Bei. Although it was for Yang Shugen's face, without them taking action, she would have become a martyr.
"I owe Chen a life." Ma Chunhua told herself.
...
It was already 1952. During the summer flood season, the Huaijiang River flooded, directly threatening the safety of the Beitai Industrial Base. The Youth League Committee of the Machinery Company organized a Youth Commando to go to the embankment to prevent and rescue floods. Chen Bei was appointed as the deputy captain of the commando. As the secretary of the Youth League Committee, she was the captain.
The commando defended the river embankment for more than ten days and nights. Everyone didn't close their eyes. When they were sleepy, they sniffed in the mud and water for a while. When they were hungry, they ate a bite of cold dry food and drank a bite of dirty water. In order to protect socialist property, everyone was willing to go out.
The flood was overwhelming and the situation was critical. The embankment broke many times. The sandbag dropped by the commando was quickly swept away by the torrent. At the critical moment, Chen Bei went into battle bare-chested and pulled a rope into the water to act as a human wall. The workers of the commando also followed him without saying a word. The ironworks were not willing to be outdone and followed suit. The commando took hands and hands to block the torrent with flesh and blood.
The raging flood beasts were finally subjugated by the workers' steel will. Reinforcements arrived under the leadership of Ma Chunhua and a group of party committees, strengthening their guards. Cheers of victory sounded on the dam, red flags fluttered, and workers covered in mud hugged each other excitedly.
When Ma Chunhua saw Chen Bei standing in the torrent, she felt moved. This bourgeois eldest young master finally merged with the proletarian brothers, and his efforts were not in vain.
Secretary Xu of the Party Committee was also very pleased and said, "Xiao Ma, Chen Bei's ideological awareness has improved rapidly, and you have made great contributions."
Ma Chunhua smiled and said, "This is what I should do."
Chen Bei loosened the rope and wiped the sweat from his face. Suddenly, a wave hit him. He was unstable and his prosthetic limb was stuck in the mud and could not be pulled out. He lost his balance and was swept away by the flood in a flash.
"Secretary Chen fell into the water." The workers shouted for help, but the flood was too fast and no one could react.
Ma Chunhua did not hesitate at all, ran a few steps, and stabbed into the water and swam towards Chen Bei hard.
"Pony, dangerous." Secretary Xu shouted, but it was too late.
The turbid waves were surging, and the two young people were quickly flooded by the flood.
The workers all took off their hats silently and shed tears.
The secretary choked and said, "At any cost, we must find the body of the martyr."
Thunder rolled across the sky, and the rainstorm was pouring again.
...
Ma Chunhua grew up by the Dawang River and has excellent water quality, but any swimming technique is useless in the face of the flood. She was filled with dirty water. When she woke up, she found herself lying on the slippery mud floor, with withered reeds beside her, pouring rain, and her clothes were completely wet against her skin.
Not far away, Chen Bei lay motionless on his back, not knowing his life or death.
"Section Chief Chen." Ma Chunhua rushed forward to rescue. She learned some first aid methods and helped Chen Bei press his chest and abdomen, move his arms, and sprayed a mouthful of turbid water. Chen Bei came back alive, but still couldn't recover his mind.
Ma Chunhua observed that they were on a river center island downstream. This isolated island was originally very large, but now it was flooded by floods, leaving only a very small piece on the water surface. There was also a straw shed built by fishermen on the island to shelter from wind and rain.
She tried her best to drag Chen Bei's heavy body into the straw shed, put her hands on her forehead, and it was hot.
It was raining heavily, and the rain was poured on the straw shed. It rained heavily outside and it was light raining inside. Ma Chunhua ran out and broke many reeds and added them to the straw shed, which at least blocked the rain.
Soon it was dark, Chen Bei had not yet woken up, and his body became extremely cold, Ma Chunhua was at a loss and was in a hurry. Suddenly, she gritted her teeth, took off her clothes, and pressed against Chen Bei with her hot ketone body.
