"I suspect my husband isn't human at all."
In 1983, by the old槐樹 (Chinese Scholar Tree) at the village entrance, Jiang Hongguo finished saying this to the visiting police uncle. The old scholar tree was immediately struck by lightning, scaring Jiang Hongguo into running home, no longer daring to say her husband wasn't human.
In 1983, Gu Changzong returned from work, hoe on his shoulder. On the field path, the visiting police officer looked at the young man with strong muscles and teased, "Changzong, your wife says you're not human. In what way are you not human?"
Gu Changzong smiled, "Perhaps I'm too much at night."
Soon, the village aunties started joking, "Hongguo, we all know your man is strong, so stop showing off."
In 1983, Jiang Hongguo's cold, estranged educated youth husband, who had been separated from her for a year, began enthusiastically coming to her room every night. Jiang Hongguo couldn't fight him off, couldn't bite him. After some time, Jiang Hongguo gave up and asked, "Gu Changzong, are you human or not?"
What could Gu Changzong say? "I'm human, of course."
