Cheng Yousuo waited at home for a while, but when Youfu and the others didn't return, he came over directly.

Cheng Yousuo carefully considered the whole story. He could tell from Cheng Qianjin's attitude last time that if it weren't for the five lives in his family, that old man would never have let him go.

He had just submitted his report to the brigade leader, and Cheng Qianjin would definitely not let him off if he did anything else. However, Jiang Zhiqing had gotten into this mess because she was delivering fish soup to her child, and he had to stand up for her no matter what.

Since Youfu hadn't returned, Cheng Yousuo wanted to go and check on him, and ask Jiang Zhiqing what her plans were.

Since Cheng Yi's family doesn't know how to teach their son to behave, I'll go help them and teach Cheng Yi a lesson. From now on, he'll have to avoid Jiang Zhiqing whenever he sees her.

If Cheng Qianjin wanted to use this against him, what could he possibly do? He was just a militia captain. He wouldn't stand for it. What could Cheng Qianjin possibly do to him?

Unexpectedly, the Wei family's house was locked. Cheng Yousuo heard that they had gone to the brigade leader's house. He wanted to go and see, and just then he ran into Wu Dayong, who had come looking for him.

So Jiang Zhiqing was going to sue Cheng Yi!

The militia trains every year, and the militia of the brigade is very organized. Cheng Yousuo immediately asked Wu Dayong, who was also a militiaman, to gather more men, especially the strong and able-bodied ones, to assemble at the brigade headquarters. He needed to go to the brigade leader's house first to meet with him…

This matter is going to escalate significantly, and it can't be handled at home. The brigade leader is in charge at the brigade headquarters, and his opinion is that this matter should be dealt with seriously.

Cheng Qianjin also arrived. The militia also needed to assemble at the brigade headquarters, which immediately disrupted the village's tranquility.

Someone saw Song Yan and Jiang Xiaoxiao arrive at the brigade headquarters. Li Yuanzhao and others rushed over upon hearing the news.

Song Yan recounted the events on behalf of Jiang Xiaoxiao. Song Yan vividly described Cheng Yi's unreasonable behavior and Jiang Xiaoxiao's fear at the time, making the audience feel extremely sorry for her.

Secretary Cheng doesn't approve of arresting anyone. We need to understand what happened!

Li Yuanzhao: "Secretary Cheng should find out what happened."

Since you became the Party Secretary, your niece has been all-powerful in the weaving group; she can point at someone's nose and tell them to get lost.

In the new society, everyone is equal, and labor is not divided into high and low classes. Who gave her the audacity to treat us educated youth like landlords and rich peasants, leaving us with no dignity?

Now it's your nephew again, stopping a young woman and acting like a scoundrel, trying to force Jiang Xiaoxiao to date him. Jiang Xiaoxiao disagreed, and Cheng Yi actually threatened her. His family even tried to spread rumors for him.

Secretary Cheng, who's backing them up? Who gave them the audacity?

Is this still the old society? One person becomes an official, and the whole family can rise to prominence – isn't this a scourge on the village?

Song Yan nodded repeatedly; she also wanted to use this as a starting point. Li Yuanzhao's words were excellent; she could just listen from the sidelines.

The team members also agreed that Li Yuanzhao was right. It wasn't a secret that Cheng Xiuyun had pointed at Huang Guoqing and Pan Bo and told them to get lost.

Wang Guoqing and Pan Bo are usually very hardworking, and the team members also respect them.

“How could this happen? Nothing like this has ever happened in our brigade before!” said brigade member A.

“My God, if that’s the case, would I dare let my daughter go out?” said B, a member of the team.

Then several team members echoed this sentiment.

Several children shouted, "Those who commit hooliganism are bad people and should be arrested!"

"Our teacher, Mr. Jiang, is such a good person, yet he made her cry and kicked her out of the village."...

Now that the Lunar New Year is approaching, literacy classes are usually held in the afternoon, and the children are used to help adults with chores in the morning.

There are many reasons for doing this.

First of all, literacy classes are for children to learn some characters, not to make them all-around outstanding individuals. There is no academic pressure, and half a day of classes is fine.

With the Lunar New Year approaching, things will get busier at home. Forcing children into literacy classes can also cause resentment among parents.

In literacy classes, besides learning characters, children can engage in many interesting activities, such as storytelling, games, singing, and simple crafts. The aim is to spark their interest.

Teach more to those who are willing to learn, and let them play more to those who are not. There is no pressure to learn or to achieve grades in literacy classes.

Song Yan felt that even if he didn't know many words, but just learned a lesson from the story he heard, that was still a gain.

Now, both children and parents highly approve of the literacy class and respect Xiaoxiao very much.

Jiang, the educated youth, was being bullied, which angered many members of the brigade. Quite a few children also came over. They didn't quite understand the details, only that their teacher had been bullied.

So everyone gathered outside the brigade headquarters thought Cheng Yi was being a thug. Everyone in the brigade knew his character. The secretary even said he needed to find out more about the situation—wasn't that just protecting him?

"If we don't arrest those who act like hooligans, then who are we supposed to arrest?" Cheng Yousuo waved his hand and left with his men.

When Cheng Yousuo brought the person over, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Sometimes, villagers would catch fat pigs, tie their front and hind hooves together, and lift them up with sticks piercing through them.

Cheng Yi was carried here with his hands and feet bound and pierced by sticks.

Behind Cheng Yi was Cheng Yi's mother, who was bound hand and foot.

What's going on?

Without Cheng Yousuo elaborating, the militiamen recounted what had happened.

Cheng Yi sat on the ground, acting like a rogue, saying he couldn't walk. Since you can't walk, we'll carry you here.

Cheng Yi's mother threw a tantrum, scratching the militiamen who tried to arrest him. Did she think she could stop the brigade from making arrests?

In Cheng Yousuo's words, the old lady insisted that Cheng Yi was dating Jiang Xiaoxiao, and she described the details in great detail. As the militia captain, I suspected that Cheng Yi's lewd behavior was taught by his mother. So I arrested her.

Cheng Yi's mother had already made a mess of her hair from throwing a tantrum at home. She was crying and screaming just now, and her hands were tied. She couldn't even wipe her face herself. Her face was now a mess, covered in tears and snot.

Clean people would turn their heads away; it's too disgusting. Her snot must have gotten into her mouth…
