However, she was also worried that the others would not be convinced. After all, there were people in the village who had been to school for 1 or 2 years and were capable of reading a few words. If they were to hear about the chance of earning work points, they were definitely going to snatch the opportunity.

Han Yongfang said, “Don’t be afraid, I have weighed my own weight here for so many years; I will severely scold whoever dares to go against my wishes!”

The Secretary Head is domineering!

Dong Huaihua also reassured her, “You proposed this matter first, so of course you’re going to participate in it. All they know to do is to get jealous, but if they can’t even contribute a single thought, what’s the use of their studies?”

Dong Huiahua also entrusted Han Yongfang to inform each Production Team Leader to inform the Commune members about this matter when they go to and return from work. This had to be done to ensure that everyone would be able to cooperate to achieve their common goal.

Han Yongfang agreed.

After Han Yongfang left, Lin Lan wanted to talk to Han Qingping and Teacher Huo, but she was held back by Dong Huaihua.

“Come on, let’s get something else done first,” She winked.

Lin Lan understood that she wanted to settle Liu Xiuyun and Youth Chen’s matters right now.

Lin Lan didn’t really want to go since it wasn’t a good thing to be present for. It was tantamount to revealing another party’s scandal face-to-face. Besides, the person involved would either turn to anger and hold grudges or be ashamed to the point where they had to resist the darkening contemplation of life and death.

The key point was that she wasn’t a cadre.

Dong Huaihua acted resolutely, but regardless of Lin Lan’s worries, she had her write a large notice first. The content was about the promotion of the Brigade’s physical hygiene, stating that the people in charge were both Dong Huaihua and Lin Lan.

“We should let this news spread out first in order to let the members know about this early.”

After posting the notice, Dong Huaihua led Lin Lan to find Liu Xiuyun before it was time to clock out of work.

Liu Xiuyun took a few leaves of absence these past few days. She stayed at home to cook, not even taking a step out of the house.

Xiuyun’s mother was also at home and was persuading her daughter when she heard Dong Huaihua’s voice. The elderly woman hurriedly came out to welcome the Women’s Director.

Seeing that Lin Lan was there, she froze for a moment.

Dong Huaihua said, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry too much as sister Lin Lan isn’t a busybody. She even knew about it earlier but said nothing.”

Xiuyun’s mother heaved a sigh of relief and looked outside carefully before she closed the courtyard door. Suddenly, she looked saddened, “Director, can you think of a way to persuade this child? Why does she have to be so stubborn?”

Dong Huaihua asked what the current plan was.

Xiuyun’s mother whispered, “She was supposed to secretly take her sister-in-law’s medical book to the County Hospital to abort it, but she became soft-hearted and was reluctant to let it go. What a silly child, do you not want to live anymore?” She began to wipe her tears.

Dong Huaihua patted her hand, “Let’s talk about the matter at hand first.”

Xiuyun’s mother sobbed, “Hey, even if we want to abort the child now, I’m afraid it won’t work. At the County Hospital…” She said and glanced at Lin Lan, “The doctor said she’s not in good health and if she were to abort it, she might no longer get pregnant nor could she do strenuous work. If it is severe, there is a possibility that both the mother and child might…Tell me, isn’t… isn’t this just forcing me to my death?”
