Moreover, male homosexuals came to my door, which made me very tired.

It's too cold, and apart from getting up every morning to exercise, I really don't want to go out at other times.

In the end, they made such a fuss that they simply closed the door and wouldn't open it no matter how much they knocked.

But I didn't expect them to bring people from the "Revolutionary Committee" and try to break in. If the logistics department of the army hadn't repaired it before I moved in, they might have really broken in.

"Open the door! We're from the Revolutionary Committee. We received a report. If you don't open the door, we'll smash it down!"

"Open the door, open the door quickly..."

Upon hearing that it was the Revolutionary Committee, he quickly put on his cotton-padded coat, then draped a military overcoat over it, went outside, opened the door, and said:

"Is there anything I can help you with, comrade?"

"You are Li Mianmian."

"Yes, then you'll come with us to the Revolutionary Committee."

"I wonder what excuse this comrade gave me for going to the Revolutionary Committee."

Someone reported you for using public resources.

"Occupying public resources? I don't know what resources they are."

"We received a report that you're occupying an entire courtyard by yourself and preventing others from living there."

"Comrade, I don't know who these 'others' are referring to."

"Who else could it be but the new educated youth who came to your brigade?"

"Could you tell me which comrade reported it?"

"We received an anonymous tip. Do you have any more questions? If not, please come with us!"

"I'm afraid that won't work, comrade."

"You actually refused to cooperate with our Revolutionary Committee's investigation. Do you know what kind of crime that is?"

"I don't know what crime you've committed, but I do know that if you forcibly take me away, you'll likely face a military court-martial."

"Who are you trying to scare? Do you think I'm easily frightened?"

"Why don't you give it a try?"

"Li Zhiqing, please don't delay our work. Please come with us and cooperate with the investigation."

"I can go with you, but could you please go to the neighboring unit and speak with the commander there, asking if they would allow me to go to your Revolutionary Committee?"

"Who are you? Why do you need to be a military leader to give your approval?"

"He's not some big shot, just an ordinary person, but..."

"But what? Speak up, I don't have time to waste here."

"However, I am honored to have two heroic parents, and to be a descendant of soldiers and martyrs."

"You are the child of a martyr"

"yes"

"These are my identification documents."

"Sorry for bothering you earlier, please let's go."

"etc"

"Is there anything I can help you with, Comrade Li?"

"Yes? Could you tell me what else was written in the report?"

"The other party reported that you are occupying this courtyard by yourself and are not accepting new educated youth."

That's all?

"Furthermore, they say you took several thousand kilograms of grain by yourself, that you refused to help those in need, that you didn't share firewood with everyone, that you lacked a sense of community and were selfish..."

What is your name for this comrade?

"My surname is Wang, but you can just call me Comrade Wang, Li Zhiqing."

"Alright, Comrade Wang, let me answer your first question. Comrade Wang, do you know that I was transferred from another brigade?"

"Don't know?"

I can tell you that.

"Who are you, comrade?"

Third Brother

"Hello, I'm Shen Xi, a deputy company commander from the 3rd Battalion, 3rd Regiment of the unit next door."

"Hello, Comrade Shen Xi"

"This Comrade Li Mianmian is my fiancée. Due to some reasons, our unit leaders transferred her to Xiangyang Brigade. This courtyard was purchased by the unit on behalf of my fiancée from the brigade. There are records and receipts at the brigade headquarters."

"Comrade Wang, I am the captain of Xiangyang Brigade. What Comrade Shen just said is correct. The brigade headquarters does have records and receipts for Li Zhiqing buying this house."

Also, what the comrade just said is true that Li, the educated youth, had several thousand kilograms of grain.

But these weren't things she bought from the brigade headquarters, nor did she exchange them privately with other members.

And she earned it all herself; the members of the brigade can all testify to that.

"Yes, we can testify."

That's right.

The brigade leader didn't know how many work points Li had earned in the brigade.

"Comrade Wang, since Li, the educated youth, came to the brigade, she usually earns 10 work points a day, 14 work points during the busy farming season, and she also cuts pig feed for 2 work points a day after the spring planting ends and before the autumn harvest. She has earned a total of 2,240 work points since she came."

During the autumn harvest and grain distribution, in addition to the rations for his family and the military dependents' allowance, Li, an educated youth, also received sweet potatoes using 1240 work points.

How many kilograms each?

"Comrade Wang, Li, the educated youth, received 500 jin of corn cobs, 100 jin of various beans, and 2360 jin of sweet potatoes."

"I wonder how many centimeters the other educated youth in the brigade earned."

"Besides the newly arrived educated youth and Li, there were four other educated youths: Cai Qiang (1128 work points), Liu Hui (1656 work points), Cao Fang (1381 work points), and Qian Jiaojiao (969 work points)."

"Okay, thank you, Captain. I apologize, Li Zhiqing. We didn't investigate properly and have bothered you today. Please forgive us. We'll visit you another day."

"Comrade Wang, there's no need for that. It's good to find out the truth, but I still need to trouble you to find the person who made the anonymous report. I want to confront him face to face and demand justice."

"Okay, I, Wang, will definitely find this person."

"Yes, find him. Our Xiangyang Brigade doesn't need this kind of person."

"don't want"

We're leaving now.

"Okay, Captain, thank you for what you did earlier."

"No need to thank me, they never come here for anything good! Who's got nothing better to do than cause trouble for me? I think they're just bored."

"Captain, we can't let him get away with this. We can't let one bad apple spoil the whole bunch."

"Yes, we must find this rat."

"Yes, we absolutely cannot let him get away with this."

"Alright, it's freezing cold, everyone go home!"

"Let's go back! It's too cold. This person is just looking for trouble."

"Who can argue with that?"

Third Brother, what brings you here?

"I happened to be off today, so I came over."

"Come inside quickly! It's freezing outside!"

"Okay, what exactly happened to Mianmian?"

"Stop talking, it just makes me angry."

"Then I won't say anything."

"But it's not comfortable not to say it."

"Then tell me."

"Alright! But where to begin?"

"Then let's start from the beginning, and tell us slowly."

"Okay, it has to start from the 1st of this month. They came at the beginning of last month. On the morning of the 1st, someone knocked on the door. A female educated youth named Wang Yan came and said she wanted to borrow grain."

"Isn't this Wang, the educated youth? Do we know each other?"

"Li Zhiqing, didn't I just introduce myself to you? My name is Wang Yan, so we're acquainted now, aren't we?"

“Wang Zhiqing, if you knew a comrade for less than ten minutes, would you lend her grain?”

"Of course not, no, it's not me."
