Chapter 98 Qiping Commune!

Liu Lan closed the office door and turned around to see Ji Sisi hurrying over.

"Sisi, why are you in such a hurry? Is something wrong?"

Ji Sisi nodded. "Sister Lan, is Director Yan here?"

"No, Director Yan left for a meeting in the county town an hour ago. Your timing is really bad!"

Helpless, Ji Sisi adjusted her breathing to calm herself down.

"Did they say when they'd be back?"

Liu Lan shook her head. "It will be at least four or five in the afternoon. What urgent matter do you need to see him about?"

"The cattle raised by the herders have contracted a serious infectious disease. Sister Lan, where is the commune's phone number?"

It's not necessarily a bad thing that Director Yan is currently in a meeting in the county town.

Since we'll eventually have to report to the county, we might as well make a clear statement today and get the county to take it seriously sooner.

"How could this happen? I'll take you there."

The commune had a large telephone directory containing contact information for various communes and major bureaus in the county.

Liu Lan said that Director Yan went to the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau for a meeting on village construction.

The call was answered by an operator: "Lu County Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, Village Construction Station, how can I help you?"

"Hello comrade, I am the liaison officer of Huaihua Commune. I would like to speak with Director Yan of Huaihua Commune. I have something important to tell him."

"Okay, wait a moment."

A moment later, Director Yan's voice came through the receiver.

"Sisi? Why are you calling the county?"

Ji Sisi didn't answer his question. Instead, she got straight to the point and said that the yaks had lung rot and she needed to go to the leaders to explain the situation and find some veterinarians to check other production teams as soon as possible.

When Director Yan received the call, he felt like the sky was falling.

After hanging up the phone, I was completely distracted during the meeting, and it wasn't until the meeting ended that I came back to my senses.
-
Director Yan placed his hands on his knees, his forehead beaded with cold sweat, unsure of how to begin.

"Alright, we're old classmates, just say what you need to say."

Lin Haiyang poured Director Yan a cup of tea and then sat down.

“You said it yourself. The yaks raised by our production team No. 6 have contracted an infectious disease, and now it seems that similar situations have occurred in several other teams. According to the veterinarian, if they are not treated soon, the losses could be significant, and we might not be able to save a single yak…”

Lin Haiyang thought the tea was too hot, so he blew on it a few times. After listening to the conversation, he put the tea back on the coffee table with a serious expression.

"Your team showed up too?!"

Director Yan was puzzled and pressed for an answer, "What do you mean? From what you're saying, it seems that this situation has already occurred in some communes?"

Lin Haiyang tacitly agreed.

"About two weeks ago, I ran into Old Wang from Qiping Commune. He told me that he had caught a bit of an illness, but he didn't go into details. He just asked me to inquire about the availability of medicine for him when I went to the city next time, so that I could take some precautions."

Director Yan realized something was wrong. Qiping Commune?

Damn it, the No. 2 production team and the No. 5 production team of the Qiping Commune are adjacent to each other. They discovered the disease a long time ago, but they dared not report it.
The locust flowers also suffered as a result.

Director Yan clenched his fists, wishing he could rush to Qiping Commune right now and give Wang Hao a couple of punches.

Director Yan snorted coldly, his tone sarcastic, "It's one thing to be afraid of taking responsibility and not report what you know, but now you've implicated our entire organization. Haiyang, what do you suggest we do about this?"

Lin Haiyang was also troubled. Wang Hao's tone didn't seem like it was a big deal, so he didn't take it to heart. Plus, he hadn't been to the city recently.

Who knew it would be this serious?

"How about this, you can come to our house to rest tonight, and this afternoon I'll have someone notify people from the other communes to come over, and we'll have a meeting tomorrow to discuss and weigh the results."

There was no better way at the moment, so Director Yan agreed.

"With so many of your family members, I feel uncomfortable staying here. Can you give me a certificate so I can stay at a guesthouse for the night?"

Director Yan was still furious and wished he could hold a meeting that very night to demand an explanation from Wang Hao!
"Liu Erwa, something's happened!"

Before she arrived, her voice preceded her; a mournful wail echoed through the commune hall. Liu Lan had just brought Ji Sisi downstairs, intending to see her off, when she saw her aunt appear in the commune.

"Aunt, what brings you here?"

"Erwa, something terrible has happened! Your uncle is going to be arrested! What are we going to do?!"

Before the reason could be explained, Liu Lan's aunt, Shi Daya, started crying.

Liu Lan supported the woman, her heart filled with anxiety. "Auntie, don't cry. Tell me what happened before you cry. Did you come here specifically to cry?"

"Someone said your uncle's cattle have contracted an infectious disease, and they took him to the sixth production team, saying they were coming to the commune to find Director Yan. Erwa, you know your uncle best; he's honest and upright, he definitely wouldn't feed them carelessly..."

Upon hearing that the cow had died, Ji Sisi's heart skipped a beat.

Liu Lan was from the second team, which was very close to the sixth team. She most likely contracted the disease from the sixth team.

Liu Lan sighed and comforted her, "Auntie, this is just an investigation to find out the cause of the illness. Don't cry. Uncle won't be arrested and go to jail. He'll be back after a few questions."

"Is it true or not? But I heard from others that this is a crime. That cow belongs to the state. Now that your uncle's cow has died, everyone in the team is saying that your uncle is finished."

Liu Lan's face darkened, and she wanted to say something but held it back.

Her aunt is like a fragile flower; she cries at the slightest thing, and it's so annoying.

"Auntie, I'm not lying to you, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, ask my colleague!"

Shi Daya looked at Ji Sisi, hoping to get a definite answer.

Ji Sisi nodded, "Once it's all cleared up, don't worry too much."

"If there's nothing else, we can't just ask and be done with it. Why do you insist on taking them away? What do you mean by this? Are you trying to lie to me...?"

Ji Sisi felt that her words were like a breeze passing by, no, they didn't even reach this person's brain.

I'm already annoyed by having so many things to do, and hearing this crying makes me even more annoyed.

Ji Sisi was about to leave when she said, "Sister Lan, there's still a lot of work to do in the team, I'll go back first."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Shi Daya sobbed uncontrollably, "I've never seen this person before when I came to the commune. Could it be that you sent him to trick me? Erwa, your family only has your uncle as an only son. You have to help your uncle!"

Upon hearing that she was the only son, Liu Lan immediately became furious.

"Auntie, I've already said I'm fine, how can I help you?"

Liu Lan suffocated. Of all her relatives, this aunt was the most difficult to deal with; she would burst into tears after just a few words.

Her eyesight is really good; she can cry more than ten times a month without any problems.

"Why would I lie to you? He's a new guy in the commune, just assigned to help out in the sixth team. If you don't believe me, just ask him."

Upon hearing the name of the sixth team, Shi Daya stopped crying, turned around, and ran quickly outside.

Ji Sisi had just gotten on her bike, ready to return to her team.

Shi Daya rushed out and stood in front of Ji Sisi, preventing her from leaving.

"Hey girl, you're from Team Six? You can help my man, right?"

Please have some compassion and help me. I damaged my body during childbirth and will never be able to have children again. My second child's uncle doesn't mind; he's a good person..."

Ji Sisi interrupted her expressionlessly, "Stop. If you're here to complain, you've come to the wrong person. You should go talk to the Women's Federation. Please make way."

Shi Daya was taken aback, not expecting that someone would not buy into her act.

Ji Sisi pedaled her bicycle away, leaving only her back view.

Liu Lan followed her out and, upon hearing her aunt's incoherent ramblings, was so angry that she broke down, feeling utterly humiliated.

"Aunt, why are you saying this? Aren't you ashamed?"

Liu Lan will be helpful to Sisi later, so Sisi needs to help her solve a small problem.
Please don't mind Shi Daya, she has very few scenes!
