He felt a sharp pain in his heart, and hurriedly pressed his chest with one hand.Ever since I came back from the country that time, my heart hurts whenever I think about it.When the county-wide famine broke out and people starved to death, Shuang Geng became more and more tormented by this guilt. As the director of the Agriculture Bureau, instead of trying to guide the farmers to develop production correctly, you asked them to do so.

He staggered holding Mo'er and walked inward, wanting to put the child next to the concubine, and then go to see Huaibao.Ever since he heard that Huaibao had been arrested, the self-blame in his heart became more and more severe.No, Huaibao cannot be blamed for all these responsibilities. It is me, the director of the Agriculture Bureau, who does the specific work. ", report to the central leadership, maybe the food shortage in this county will not be as serious as it is today, or this situation will not happen at all, I should be responsible!Besides, Huaibao transferred you to the county in the first place to let you help him do a good job.

Do you know what the purpose of the revolution was for the common people to live a better life!But you let so many people starve to death, I should shoot you now! kill it!I don't want to live anymore!The guilt, grievance and irritability accumulated in Shuang Geng's heart made him open his mouth to call out this sentence.
