Chapter 12 Section 12

After the Battle of Pingjin, the troops rested for two months and began the task of continuing southward, eliminating the Bai Chongxi and Yu Hanmou cliques, liberating the central and southern provinces, taking over major and medium cities, and establishing people's governments at all levels. Jiao Liu didn't go very far with the army. As the backbone of cadres who understood politics, he was left in that city after the army liberated a medium-sized city, and changed from a combat team to a work team. , carried out the transfer work from the countryside to the city, and did not continue to move forward with the large forces. 

In order to take care of Jiao Liu, the organization considered keeping my aunt. Jiao Liu asked for her aunt's opinion.Jiao Liu said, the organization wants me to stay and talk behind closed doors. The whole country has not yet been liberated, and the war has not yet been fought. I don’t want to stay. I want to go to the front with my comrades. There is no price to talk about for things that have been decided in the past. You are different. If you want to stay, if you want to continue to move forward with the army, you just keep going. My aunt asked Jiao Liu: You are from the organization, am I?

Jiao Liu was confused by the question, thought for a while, and said, of course you are too. The aunt nodded and said, I am not only a member of the organization, I am also a member of you. The organization has already talked to me, and you are staying here. I am just 10,000 reluctant, and I can go alone ? Jiao Liu listened to her aunt's work, she was silent for a long time, her eye circles gradually turned red, after a while, she walked over with big strides, and pulled her into her arms, making her yelp. After entering the city, both Jiao Liu and my aunt worked in the military control committee at first, Jiao Liu was the leader of the military control committee, and my aunt was his subordinate.Soon after, Jiao Liu was promoted and became the mayor of the city, while my aunt was transferred to the countryside to carry out the land reform movement.Since they got married, the two had often separated due to the busy war, and they rarely saw each other for three days. Now they stayed in the same city, and after two days of reunion, they often did not see each other when their jobs changed.

Jiao Liu is a leading cadre with strong working ability. He has great leadership ability, handles things very decisively, and never procrastinates. Under his leadership, the problem of hungry people has been solved, the problem of plague has been solved, and the problem of hiding secret agents It was resolved, and the war-torn city was quickly revived, and there was a thriving scene. At the same time, Jiao Liu is an upright and upright official with a clear distinction between what he likes and what hates. He hates those moths in the revolutionary ranks so much that he can't see any moths at all. Down, and then crush them to death.He has kicked and crushed many such dissidents, and he has a great reputation in this regard.

Once at a meeting of the military control committee, Jiao Liu criticized a cadre who was greedy for pleasure as soon as he entered the city. He didn't give that cadre any face at all. In taverns, eating dog meat, dancing with female students, you have only been touring the city for a few days, and you have taken off your cloth shoes, replaced them with leather shoes, removed your cloth clothes, and put on poplin, and you let a rickshaw pull you, you are a Communist Party cadre Do you dare to roam the streets in a rickshaw?You are too brave!You just go shopping, the problem is that you don’t just go shopping, your job is like shit, you have lost our glorious tradition, you can’t even compare to an old government employee who is retained, what kind of company are you? Communist Party cadres?You are embarrassing the Communist Party!It is to discredit the Communist Party!I fucking wish I could kick you to death!

As Jiao Liu said so, he really jumped off the stage, walked up to the cadre, and kicked him violently.With great strength and hatred, Jiao Liu kicked the cadre from the chair to the ground with one kick. Another time, the Public Security Department of the Military Control Commission sent a case file. Two cadres embezzled tens of millions of public funds. The money was used to buy food for the victims, but they squandered the food money, and the food was not bought. Enough, the famine lasted for several months, people starved to death, and people died. Jiao Liu read the case files and was furious. With a wave of the ink brush, he said that he should be shot.

One of the parties involved in the case was Jiao Liu's subordinate. He had known Jiao Liu for many years and made great contributions. That subordinate wrote a tear-stained letter in prison and entrusted someone to send it to Jiao Liu, telling him that he would fight for half his life. For the credit, I beg the old chief to remember the loyalty and comrade-in-arms friendship he has followed for a long time, and keep people under the knife. Jiao Liu read the letter, smiled coldly, tore up the letter three times, reached for a pen, and wrote a new instruction on the top of the file: embezzling public funds, the amount is huge, shot once; The sound is loud, kill again; kill twice in total, check and report to me.After writing, throw the pen on the table and tell the director of public security, execute it.

The story of Jiao Liu killing a subordinate who committed a capital crime twice in a row spread as a good story. Jiao Liu is very strict with his subordinates, and he himself sets an example.After he entered the city and became the mayor, he still maintained the style of hard work, simplicity, hard work and hard work that he had during the war. , in short, everything is still the same old style. My aunt was engaged in the land reform movement in the countryside, and sometimes she came back for a meeting or to report on work, and by the way, she went home to see a bed, a desk, a chair, a set of work clothes, and then a room full of dust, simple It couldn't be more simple, and it's the master's way of staying in the house for a long time.Seeing this scene, my aunt felt a little uneasy, feeling that she had not taken good care of Jiao Liu, and had not fulfilled her responsibility as a wife, so my aunt went to Jiao Liu's office.

Auntie went to Jiao Liu's office, Jiao Liu was sometimes there, sometimes not, so she went down to check on her work.When Jiao Liu was here, he always looked like he hadn't slept in ten or eight years, his eyes were red and swollen, bloodshot, his hair was long, his beard was unshaven, his mouth smelled of garlic after staying up all night, and he didn't know how long he hadn't washed it. Cleaned his face, brushed his teeth, in short, it was a mess. My aunt was very distressed, and said Jiao Liu, I don't know how to shave my beard so long, you are so busy, you can't spare any time?

My aunt told Jiao Liu's secretary to find a barber, boiled hot water, pushed Jiao Liu on the stool and sat down, surrounded by a white cloth, only a huge head was exposed, first moistened the head with hot water, Then twist the long hair, and shave off the hard beard.Jiao Liu sat there, drinking and laughing, glanced at the secretary, and said, Xiao Huang, you see, it's better to be a wife, my wife knows how to love me, unlike you, she just gave me a hot bowl of noodle soup. My aunt was nimble. After shaving Jiao Liu's beard and hair, she asked Jiao Liu to wash her face and brush her teeth. She took off the clothes on her body and washed them. She checked the clothes she put on first. After ironing it, let Jiao Liu put it on, and after a while, Jiao Liu will be cleaned up.

Jiao Liu was very energetic after cleaning up. He is the kind of sharp-edged person with a strong body and the spirit of a man. He shaved his head, washed his face, and put on clean and crisp clothes. It was different before, and it was radiant. The secretary watched from the side, his eyes straightened, and he moved closer, looking at Jiao Liu's person, and at Auntie's hand. Jiao Liu glared at the secretary and said, "What kind of tricks are you doing?" The secretary said, Chief, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. Jiao Liu said, talk when you have something to say, and fart when you have something to say. The secretary said, why do I feel that Comrade Mei's hands are different from other people's hands? In the blink of an eye, you, the chief, will become a newcomer. Jiao Liu said triumphantly, you don't understand this, how else can you say it's a baby? My aunt rubbed Jiao Liu's smelly socks aside.My aunt blushed when she heard Jiao Liu's words, and said, what are you talking about! Jiao Liu laughed and said, I said my wife, I said my wife is a treasure, maybe I was wrong? My aunt gave him a reproachful look, and said, even if you said it, you said it behind your back. Xiao Huang didn't get married, and he was still young. If you say that, it will have a bad influence. Jiao Liu glared at the secretary and said, didn't you hear?You didn't hear these words, retreat quickly! The secretary covered her mouth with a smile, closed the door and exited. After Jiao Liu waited for the secretary to leave, he hugged his aunt from behind and rubbed his chin on her face. The aunt held the soap in her hand and froze there. Jiao Liu dawdled for a while, then asked strangely, why didn't she bark anymore? My aunt let go of Jiao Liu's arms, stroked his messy hair, and said, why are you screaming? Jiao Liu said, usually when I rub against you, you would cry out for pain, how did you become brave today? My aunt covered her mouth with the back of her hand and giggled, and said after laughing, didn't you see that I disarmed all your weapons? Jiao Liu asked incomprehensibly, what weapon?What disarmed? My aunt said, beard. Jiao Liu quickly touched his chin, and suddenly realized when he touched it, and said, oh—— After Jiao Liu said oh, he added: boring. My aunt finished everything and was ready to rush back to the countryside. Jiao Liu said, let's go? My aunt said that there are many things at work, so I have to go back. Jiao Liu said, no matter how much work you have, how can you have more work than me?When I was the mayor, it was a matter of opening my eyes all day long, and it was a matter of lying down. I wished that one person would hand over ten people to come out. I was so busy that I didn't say I was going to leave.Since you are back, you have to stay at home for a night or so, and go back tomorrow morning, and I will send you a car. My aunt said embarrassingly, I also want to stay for one night, and I want to stay for a few more nights. I am tired and paralyzed, and I want to have a good sleep. The kennel is ready, I need time to clean up the house first. Jiao Liu said bitterly, don't rush to clean up the house first, you should clean me up first. My aunt didn't understand at first, but when she saw Jiao Liu staring at her straight, burning like a fire, she immediately understood that her face was already red, but this time it was as red as a blooming flower. To herald the spring, she picked up a handful of water from the basin and poured it on the willows, and said coquettishly, "I tell you, you are the mayor, so don't let your imagination run wild." Jiao Liu said, why, when the mayor thinks about his wife, he just thinks wildly?Should the mayor be a monk?Now there are no outsiders, are you still shy?Mei Qin, when you're not here, you miss me so much, you almost miss me in the room, don't leave today, I'll tell you, Lao Zhou, that I'll give you a day off. My aunt stroked the loose hair she was busy with just now, and said softly, then there is no need to tell Lao Zhou, I am responsible for the work of the working group, and I can handle it myself, so I will stay for one day to clean the house, Go buy two more trotters and improve your food at night. That night, Jiao Liu had pig's trotters to eat, and Jiao Liu had his aunt.The pig's trotters were stewed rottenly, and my aunt was as warm as water.With these two things, Jiao Liu seemed to be having a festival and was extremely happy. Jiao Liu hummed happily, and said happily, the pig's trotters are really good, and the wine is really good. Jiao Liu was gasping for breath, and said with all her might, you are my baby, you are my baby... Jiao Liu said baby countless times, and after saying this, he started snoring and fell asleep contentedly. Such days are fulfilling for both Jiao Liu and my aunt. With such courage, Jiao Liu did his work well, which naturally won praise from everyone. The organization valued Jiao Liu as a good cadre of the party. The common people regarded Jiao Liu as Jiao Qingtian. Everywhere, there are ordinary people with blood and deep hatred stopping them and calling for grievances, and there are old aunts holding earthen pots with their little feet on a hot day to bring him mung bean soup, let him drink Baihuo, and kill a few bad guys, so that the lives of ordinary people Live a little more comfortably. Jiao Liu has never failed the expectations of the common people. He is a person who distinguishes between what he loves and what hates, and he is also a person who is full of enthusiasm like fire. He is especially a person who dares to speak and do things. Many villains were killed, and the common people breathed a sigh of relief.He also went abroad in modest clothes. At night, he went to the homes of ordinary people to visit the poor, investigate the darkness, and understand the people's conditions. Many cadres followed him and went among the ordinary people. When we are tight, everyone feels comfortable in their hearts, and the whole day is clear. My aunt works in the countryside, and she also heard a lot of good things about Jiao Liu.My aunt listened to it, but she didn't say anything, but she was very sweet in her heart, which was very useful. Farmers in the countryside heard that Comrade Mei was Mayor Jiao's wife, and they all came to see Auntie. They wanted to see what kind of person Auntie was and how she would be lucky enough to marry someone like Mayor Jiao.When they saw auntie, they clapped their hands and said, it's her, it's her, who else could it be?Several mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law competed to touch my aunt's hand and face, and said after touching it, it's no wonder that she is different from ordinary people.The men next to me said, nonsense, why is it different?They're all human, that's just more handsome, more solid, what else could be different?The mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who touched their aunts said, what about skaters and numb people, if you don’t believe me, try it yourself, you will know it when you touch it.The man stepped back in embarrassment, and said, more and more nonsense, a pair of hands, a face, neither golden branches and jade leaves, nor stars and moons, how can they slide hands?How can it numb people? No matter what the peasants in the countryside say, they are very grateful to Jiao Liu, which is a fact.They said to their aunt, Mayor Jiao knows us people, he has one heart with us, he is our people's benefactor!If it weren't for him, we don't know what life we ​​would still be living in! Farmers in the countryside also sent my aunt newly-marketed vegetables, but my aunt did not accept the fruits.They insist on my aunt accepting it.My aunt told them that the work team is disciplined and they are not allowed to take things from ordinary people casually.The common people couldn't hear this, and said unhappily, Comrade Mei, don't say anything casual, okay?Don't scare us with discipline, okay?If you want to speak casually, you will treat us as outsiders. You are not like Mayor Jiao. You just pushed us outside. If you want to talk about discipline, we should be more affectionate to Mayor Jiao?How much do we owe you, Comrade Mei?We should pay this social favor, if we don't pay it back, wouldn't we be less disciplined?You don't need to coax us with casual words, and you don't need to use discipline to coax us, you can't coax us in this respect. My aunt had no choice but to accept the vegetables sent by the farmers, and she asked the people in the work team to deal with the dishes according to the regulations.Auntie did that, on the one hand, she didn't violate discipline, and on the other hand, she was extremely proud.My aunt thought to herself, Jiao Liu is an old comrade of the revolution for many years, an old revolutionary, an outstanding member, sympathetic to the people, and won the hearts of the people. How admirable he is! The more my aunt thought about it, the more she felt that she had neglected her duty. Jiao Liu did her best for the common people every day. He devoted himself to work day and night all day long. As his wife, she should have taken good care of him. life, but she is also so busy, so busy day and night, so busy that she doesn't even go home, and she likes being so busy, she can't take care of Jiao Liu's life at all, she is really selfish in doing so, But what to do?After all, this is also her job, and her job here is also very important. She just gave up her love, so she can't let go of her job and go back to work as a nanny for Jiao Liu, right? My aunt was thinking so wildly that she felt a little troubled for a while. Once my aunt went back to the city, finished her work, and went to see Jiao Liu in Jiao Liu's office.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jiao Liu's secretary, Xiao Huang, holding a piece of Jiao Liu's clothes in his hand, and was helping Jiao Liu to sew buttons awkwardly. The water in the jar was boiling, Jiao Liu was probably starving, and when it was done, she took a big gulp impatiently, sticking out her tongue so hot that my aunt almost burst into tears when she saw Jiao Liu like that. My aunt thought a lot that day, and she felt that this could not go on, so she decided to sacrifice herself to take good care of Jiao Liu's life.My aunt didn't leave that night and stayed at home overnight.After eating, the two of them washed and went to bed, and after Jiao Liu finished kissing her, she told Jiao Liu what she thought. My aunt said, I think about it, my job is of course important, but you are the mayor, your job is much more important than mine, it is related to the life and future of the people in the city, and you are also related to our career, so I resigned I will come back to serve you, take care of your life, and if you take care of your life, you will be able to work harder. Jiao Liu was already satisfied, he was already going to sleep, but when he heard what his aunt said, a carp stood up and said, what did you say?You resigned?What did you resign from?What are you saying? My aunt said, I resigned from my job, I resigned from my job and came back to take care of you. Jiao Liu turned on the light with a snap, her chest hair was black and shiny, her arm muscles were bulging, condescending, she stared at her aunt. My aunt hurriedly pulled the quilt to cover her naked body, panicked, and said, what are you doing?What are you looking at me for? Jiao Liu said, what do I see you doing?I think you are Meiqin, are you a revolutionary Meiqin, are you a Meiqin who is alive and kicking all day, are you a Meiqin who is coming and going, you are, but what do you want to resign and come back to serve Whose work, you are not Mei Qin. Why?Auntie was a little confused. Why?You quit your job and come back to be a servant or nurse. You are an ordinary person, not a revolutionary Mei Qin, and you are backward.What I want is Mei Qin, a revolutionist. I don’t want any servant or nanny. If you want to be a servant or a nanny, you are not a revolutionist, and you are not my wife!Jiao Liu said angrily. The aunt panicked, and she didn't care about being naked. She got up, grabbed Jiao Liu's arm, shook him, and said, am I discussing with you?Haven't I made up my mind yet?Why did you just say no to me? Jiao Liu shook off her aunt, went down to the ground to pour a jar of water, no matter whether it was cold or hot, drank it in one gulp, threw the jar on the table, went back to the bed, and said, what are you discussing?What is there to discuss?Do you think that if we enter the city and seize power, the revolution will be successful?Then we can lie on the bed and enjoy the big blessing?You are wrong, you are thinking that the revolution will not end, you are right-leaning pessimism, and you are thinking of the peasant movement to sit back and enjoy its success. Your thinking is very dangerous. If you are not vigilant, you will make big mistakes! Auntie sat there, her face blushing and ashamed to death.The wind blew in through the crack of the door, making my aunt cool, and then my aunt realized that she was naked and her body was completely exposed outside.She hastily pulled the quilt over, covered herself up, stroked her messy hair, bent her legs, and raised her chin, not daring to look at Jiao Liu, staring at the corner of the quilt in a daze, regretting her thoughts all the time in her heart . Jiao Liu's thick eyebrows were very eye-catching under the light. Seeing his aunt's regretful expression, he couldn't bear it, so he said in a soft voice, "Mei Qin, when I saw you by the Yongding River, what did you look like?" ?You have short hair that reaches your ears, your waist is tied thin, and your face is blown like a hawthorn fruit by the wind. You stand on the river bank, put your hands in your mouth, and whistle with your cheeks puffed out. Those animals immediately stopped. You kicked your hooves and came back obediently, how majestic you are!How charming you are!How exciting you are!I just saw you like that, and I swear to marry you. At that time, I thought, fuck, this woman, this woman who can whistle, she is a treasure, whoever wants to get her in this life should Whoever enjoys happiness for a lifetime will turn around happily for the rest of his life.Well, now you say you're going to resign and go home to be a servant, you're taking your majesty for granted, you're taking your charm for granted, you've lost your whistle, what do you want to be a servant , what kind of nanny, didn't you spoil yourself? Auntie's nose was sore, tears were rolling in her eyes, she looked back, raised her head from her knees, and looked up at Jiao Liu.Her face is so beautiful under the light, so moving.It took her a long time to choke up and say: You... you are so kind. Jiao Liu saw that his aunt had admitted her mistake, so he forgave her. His aunt's appearance softened his heart and made his heart ache.He moved over, stretched out his hand to put my aunt in his arms, stroked her with a pair of big hands, and said, "Okay, I've said it thoroughly, the matter is clear, we should be a revolutionary couple, and we will continue to be a revolutionary couple." My aunt couldn't stand the heavy-armed Jiao Liu, her body went limp, and Jiao Liu pinned her down on the bed.My aunt said, what are you doing? Jiao Liu said, you deserted first and almost became a deserter. Now that you are back, you have become a revolutionary Meiqin again. You have become a revolutionary Meiqin. Deserting means punishment, and second, I want to welcome you back to the revolutionary ranks. Tonight, I will simply go all out and stay awake, and I will accompany you to the end of the revolution! Auntie wants to rebel, how can she resist? In fact, she doesn't really want to rebel, but she is still moved, and has not yet pulled out of the emotion. It is a subconscious, and her heart is warm. She has something to say. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could leave his mouth, he was firmly blocked by the overwhelming Jiao Liu.
