Zhang Hongfa quickly approached Guo Wenxiu as soon as he saw her coming, pouring out about the chaotic events that had occurred in the village today, his mind still buzzing,
"Exactly, Director Guo, you have no idea what happened today. Everything was fine when I left in the morning, but now my head is killing me. Lu Yonggang got drunk again and went to the workshop to hit his wife, and some old women made trouble, saying they wanted to replace Shen Meng with Zhou Jiaojiao in charge. Isn't that a mess? The textile factory, the Cooperative Society, and the Soviet acknowledge only Shen Meng. Director Guo, the village chief didn't mention anything else, just this workshop. From beginning to end, Shen Meng didn't gain a cent of benefit from it, but we three end up getting an extra fifteen yuan each month. If the person in charge changes, what kind of people would we become? How could we explain to the Director? How could we face Shen Meng and Zhenping?!"
