Chapter 324 Promotion

In early August, Zhou Rong received an order to return to the city.

Zhou Chuanyi was reluctant to let her go, and after writing a long list of positive comments on Zhou Rong's return report, he asked her to come back more often when she had time.

Zhou Rong smiled and said, "Zhoujiawan will always be my home. When I have a vacation, I will definitely come back."

Zhou Chuanyi: "Okay, you were transferred back to the city so soon, you will definitely be promoted. I wish you a bright future, and we in Zhoujiawan are proud of you!"

Zhou Rong: "I can't guess what the leader is thinking. It's hard to say whether I can get promoted. I can only try my best to do my job well."

Zhou Chuanyi: "I believe in your ability."

After Zhou Rong returned to the unit, Liao Bowen convened an internal meeting and asked her to share her experience and feelings about going to the countryside.

Zhou Rong said that she not only went to the fields with other members to earn work points every day, but also often went to the commune or other production teams to study with the team leaders and team leaders.

When he met disaster victims, he personally solved their problems, comforted them, and even took out his own food rations to share with a poor mother and daughter.

These things were written by Zhou Chuanyi in Zhou Rong's report back to the city. After Zhou Rong narrated them vividly, the applause in the conference room lasted for a long time.

Liao Bowen praised Zhou Rong for her good character, and others also praised her for her progressive thinking and bringing honor to the unit.

Zhou Rong said seriously: "Director Liao often taught us, 'When faced with difficulties, we should step up; when faced with honors, we should yield; when faced with advanced people, we should learn; when faced with backward people, we should help.'

I always keep Director Liao's words in mind and apply them to my work, which is why I was able to achieve some small results in this rural activity.

In the future, I will study harder and strive to better serve the people and contribute to the organization.”

"Pa pa ...

A week later, Zhou Rong was promoted to deputy section chief of the Personnel Department.

Zhou Rong was very careful in what she said and did, almost without any mistakes. She was not afraid of anyone causing trouble for her, and she would just deal with it directly. She had real power in her hands, so everyone was in awe of her and also a bit of fawning on her.

She is at ease in the unit...

In order to solve the problem of serious shortage of grain and non-staple food supply, the provincial and municipal party committees proposed to launch a campaign in the urban area of ​​"cherish every inch of land, fight for every inch of land, not give up every inch of land, and not leave every inch of land idle", and suggested that citizens immediately reclaim all wasteland.

It also requires all government agencies, enterprises, military units and schools to be self-sufficient or have more than enough vegetables as soon as possible.

Afterwards, all government agencies, enterprises, schools, and military units took action and launched a widespread campaign to grow vegetables wherever possible.

The city has opened up more than 1.2 mu of land for infrastructure construction and scattered vacant land in front of and behind houses, inside and outside courtyards, and beside ditches and roads......

All the flowers in the flower bed beside the wall of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau were pulled out and radishes and cabbages were planted instead.

In order to comply with the organization's policies, Xu Man dug up the flowers in her yard and planted various vegetables.

Zhou Rong brought back a dozen broken pottery jars, old bamboo baskets and baskets and placed them in the yard. He took Erwa, Nini and Zhou Qinghong to dig soil to grow vegetables, and also bought a hen to hatch chicks.

Almost every household in Chang'an planted vegetables in the yard. Some dug up the places where trees and flowers were originally planted, while others, like Zhou Rong, filled pottery jars and bamboo baskets with soil and placed them in the yard.

Since the beginning of the year, various small workshops have been closed one after another. The first reason is the shortage of raw materials for production, and the second is that the income is not enough to make ends meet. The commune cannot collect profits and cannot subsidize the small workshops, so it requires everyone to be responsible for their own profits and losses.

The items produced by the workshop were all primary foods or simple daily necessities, with low prices. The meager profits could not pay the wages of the helpers, so the workshop had to be disbanded...

After the hemp rope workshop was disbanded, Jiang Wenjuan thought her family could finally live a few days of peace, but unexpectedly the organization asked them to "reclaim wasteland" again.

After going through so many things, Jiang Wenjuan and her colleagues have come to understand that any new policy of the organization is irresistible. Instead of being troubled by others, it is better to cooperate actively and even win praise for advanced thinking.

In response to the organization's policy, they dug up all the places in Jiang Wenjuan's yard that could be dug and planted vegetables...

Zhou Jiaguang and Dawa had to participate in the school's production labor practice. Throughout the summer vacation, they either worked on the farm or dug in the school's vegetable garden.

When the two returned home at the end of August, they had once again become dark and thin "black kids", and even their eyes were not as clear as before.

Both of them ate barley buns and various porridges on the farm and at school. The food was rationed and they could never get enough to eat.

Zhou Rong was worried that they were losing weight, so he took out some spare ribs from the space and stewed some soup to nourish the children.

Today’s ingredients are so pure that even a little bit of ginger can make the dish overflow with fragrance.

Zhou Rong didn't want others to know that her family's food was so good, so she kept the kitchen doors and windows closed when she was stewing soup, but the aroma still spread through the air, making people passing by her house swallow their saliva...

Because of a disaster in the fields, the production team's public canteen could not be opened, and all the edible food in the mountains had been dug up. Old Lady Liu had no choice but to follow her eldest son Li Dajun and his family to seek refuge with her youngest son Li Xiaojun in the city.

Li Xiaojun was just an ordinary worker in a printing factory. Although his wife Zhang Cui had a city hukou, she had no job. They had two children to raise and were not well off. After Old Lady Liu and her family came, their lives became even more difficult.

Zhang Cui thought that her mother-in-law, uncle, and three nephews and nieces would only stay for two days and then go back, but she didn't expect that they had been staying for half a month and showed no intention of leaving.

The rice jar at home had long been empty, and the quota on the food card had also been used up. All the food we had eaten in recent days was purchased at high prices on the black market.

Zhang Cui didn't want to, nor was she able to support her mother-in-law and her eldest uncle's family, so she started to drive them away.

There was no need to worry about food and drink in the city, and Old Lady Liu didn't want to go back to the countryside and starve. With Li Dajun's instigation, she had a big quarrel with Zhang Cui and even threatened to commit suicide, saying that her daughter-in-law was unfilial and wanted to starve her mother-in-law to death, so she would rather die at the door.

Zhang Cui couldn't do anything about her and didn't want to have a bad reputation, so she agreed to let her stay for another week and asked Li Dajun to find a job to support herself and her three children, otherwise they would all have to go back to the countryside.

Li Dajun has no education and is not good at talking. Not only can he not find a formal job, he can't even find a hard labor job at the dock.

In order to avoid being driven back to the countryside, he had to think of unconventional means.

Li Dajun discovered that there were many widows in Chang'an, many of whom had local household registration, and some even had properties and jobs.

Let his mother go and act as matchmaker for each girl one by one. As long as one of them agrees to marry him, he can stay in the city openly and no longer have to work hard in the fields to make a living!

Old Mrs. Liu thought this was a good idea, but not just anyone was qualified to be her daughter-in-law.

She would never consider someone with a bad background, no family background, no filial piety, and no stable job.

In order to increase the success rate, Old Lady Liu found some well-informed people and asked for information about all the widows in Chang'an one by one.

Many people saw the quarrel between her and Zhang Cui. Some people didn't like this unreasonable old lady, while others wanted to watch the show and deliberately concealed some facts from her.

So all the news that Old Lady Liu heard was good.

After some analysis and elimination, Old Lady Liu set her first target on Zhou Rong.

It’s because Zhou Rong is a cadre and has the greatest future. He can help his eldest son and youngest son. His parents and brothers also have jobs and will not be a drag.

In addition, when she passed by Zhou Rong's house, she, with her sensitive nose, smelled the aroma of meat again.

Old Lady Liu secretly made up her mind to arrange this marriage...
