S1 » Ch 9 » The Brigade Secretary position!

At dawn the next day, Yoonji went to Jungkook’s room to urge him to get up.

“Don’t you have to go to the commune to inquire? Hurry up and get down to business first..”

Yoonji didn’t sleep all night. She was worried and flustered. It was like something was scratching her heart. She managed to stay up until dawn and hurriedly urged her son to finalize the work.

Jungkook laughed helplessly. The way his mother wanted things done immediately, has not changed at all after so many years.

When he was young, he felt that his parents were too controlling and annoying. Now that he has become older, his mentality has changed. He now knew that the reason for his parents’ nagging was always to care about their children.

Jungkook got up and patted Heuk-hwang’s buttocks. Heuk-hwang slept with him last night, and Baby Minsu slept with Yoonji. Heuk-hwang did not sleep honestly at night, so Jungkook would wake up from time to time to cover him up.

Jungkook ate breakfast and went out. On the way, he met his elder uncle, Jeon Seohwang, who gave him a bicycle.

Jeon Seohwang and Jeon Soohyun look very much alike, and they are the kind of brothers that can be mistaken for each other when they see each other on the road.

“I heard from your father that you’ve been discharged from the army?”

“Yes.”

Jungkook respectfully answered. His father had three brothers. The third uncle died in his early years. This eldest uncle is now the only blood relative left in his father’s generation. For so many years, the two families have been watching each other. Their relationship was very good.

In those days, Jungkook went to the army to become a soldier, which was also the person Jeon Seohwang helped find.

Many people want to join the army these days, but there are only a few people that can be recruited in the commune. Aside from that, under the same conditions, there is a wide range of options for recruitment.

When it comes to physical quality, the physical quality of rural children is not poor. When it comes to political positions, the three generations of most families are middle and lower class peasants, whose roots are Myeong Hong (Bright vast)[1].

Everyone wants to join the army, and the competition was very stressful.

Everyone wants to join the army and there is a lot of competitive pressure.

When Jeon Seohwang was young, he worked as an apprentice and could do carpentry. When he was idle, he did repair work in the Revolutionary Committee of the brigade and was very familiar with the cadres of the Revolutionary Committee.

After the draft of the conscription examination, Jungkook’s physical quality passed, but no one could guarantee that he would be chosen. Jeon Seohwang took his teeth and took out a bottle of Baijiu he had not been willing to drink for a long time. He also took a package of peanuts and secretly took Jungkook to the committee to put out good words for the cadres.

When the draft was over, Jungkook became one of the new recruits as he wished.

He didn’t know if the two bottles of wine played any role in his becoming a soldier, but he always remembered the goodness of his uncle to him.

Before he left home, his aunt gave him ten cornmeal pancakes, and his uncle gave him ten yuan, telling him to mix well in the army and to make a good living.

“If you’re discharged from the army, it’s good to come back.”

Although there are some regrets, since his nephew has made a decision, his family should still support him. Moreover, the army also arranges work for Jungkook. These are the honors won by Jungkook’s own efforts.

It’s not that he, as an uncle, is boasting. Over the years, there have been many boys in the village who went to the army as soldiers, but there are very few people who are able to become officers like his nephew.

Jungkook rode his bicycle all the way to the Revolutionary Committee, where he had been several times before. Putting the bicycle in place, he took his file and followed his previous memories and knocked on the office of the director of the Revolutionary Committee, Director Wang.

Director Wang also just arrived at the office. He was doing the work that must be done every morning, drinking tea and reading the newspaper, drinking tea and reading the newspaper, when he heard the door ring, he looked up from the newspaper, only to see a young man in uniform standing at the door, his posture upright, all righteous. At glance, he can make your heart feel comfortable.

Jeon Jungkook became the secretary of the brigade, because of that Jeon Yoonji glowing, walking with the wind, almost smiling at everyone.

“Director Wang said that my family’s Jungkook was an excellent revolutionary soldier and a pillar of the country under the command of the party. Only by arranging important posts to serve the masses can his importance and enthusiasm be brought into play.”

To recite such a long and complicated paragraph without missing a word. It was difficult for Yoonji, who had never attended school.

Whenever she saw the amazing look of others after she finished, she was very happy and her mood jumped with joy.

In the 1970s, a three-level organizational structure was implemented in rural areas, including communes, brigades and production teams, a secretary, a deputy party secretary, a director of the Reform Commission, a brigade accountant, and a militia company commander and director of governance and security.

For example, Omega directors, League branch secretaries, and brigade cashiers do not belong to the formal sequence of brigade cadres, but to deputy cadres of the brigade.

Don’t underestimate the brigade cadres. These days, the brigade cadres still have great power.

Director Wang of the Revolutionary Committee originally wanted to arrange for Jeon Jungkook to work in the commune. Unfortunately, the Secretary of the former brigade of Shanghe village was dismissed because of his work style. There was a shortage of people and coincidentally, Jungkook appeared.

After Secretary Wang solicited Jungkook’s consent, then Jeon Jungkook, the brigade secretary, began to take up his post.

Two months have passed. The time has come for July. Jungkook was busy with his work in the brigade every day. He must do everything by himself. A summer harvest made everyone accept this responsible brigade secretary from the bottom of their hearts.

“Yoonie, you see, Jungkook is busy and tired every day. There was no omega around him to know whether he was cold or hot.[2] “

Yoon, or “Yoonie”, was the nickname of Jeon Yoonji. In rural areas, many families who gave birth to a daughter but did not give birth to a son at the beginning will give their daughter a meaningful name, such as “Yoon” and recruiting younger brothers, so that their son can come quickly.

“I mentioned it to him, he said he did not want to find it now.”

“How can this be? The omega at home is not decent. He said he didn’t want to find it. He couldn’t still think of thinking about his first wife, right? “

When she heard they mentioned Wang Mina, Yoonji’s face immediately darkened.

“Nonsense! Why does he need to worry about that omega?”

She drained her clothes and said so, but in her heart, she was actually anxious. Jungkook has been reluctant to find a wife. He can’t really still be thinking about that Wang Mina, right?

“You, as a mother, should advise Jungkook. He is now the secretary of the brigade. He still had a strong vigor, even with two children. There were many young girls who were willing to marry him. He has to think for his children if he doesn’t think for himself. Can you, as a mother, manage your grandchildren all your life? It’s the stepmother. That’s not the mother!?.”

These words are said to go straight to Yoonji’s heart. She went home with a wooden basin for washing clothes. In the yard, Hwang and Shinyu were playing with slingshots. Baby Minsu sat in a bamboo frame for self-entertainment, holding a tomato in her hand. There were red spots on her clothes. Near the well, Jimin was washing Minsu’s wet pants.

Yoonji sighed and thought that she had said that she could help Jungkook take care of her children. In fact, she couldn’t be busy alone. If Jimin wasn’t there, she must be busy.

But Jimin is not too young anymore. The eighteen-year-old girl can stay for a year or two. She can’t be an unmarried girl.

It seems that she has to talk about this topic with Jungkook.
