Chapter 8: Speculation! Arrest him!



Don't hold back, kill him all!"

After receiving the roasted rabbit meat, Lin Jianye, his wife, one son and two daughters immediately cut it up with a knife and started eating it.

“Delicious! So delicious.”

"It smells so good! Dad, this Awang roasted rabbit meat is really unique. It's much better than the roasted rabbit meat we had three years ago."

"Twenty-two eggs for such a big rabbit is really worth it."

"If nothing else, the sizzling oil alone almost makes my tongue smell delicious."

The aroma wafted out, and coupled with the sight and sound of the rabbit meat being torn apart, there was an immediate burst of frantic swallowing of saliva at the scene.

Lin Jianye's family ate the food with such relish that they didn't take it home and eat it behind closed doors. Instead, they chose to eat it in public, making other villagers jealous.

Eating meat with big mouthfuls while others are drooling over it can bring the sense of satisfaction to a higher level.

Lin Xiaoxue watched them eat the roasted rabbit meat eagerly, and asked weakly while holding Lin Huowang's hand:

“Brother! Brother!

Why should we give our meat to others?

Xiaoxue has never eaten meat..."

Liu Rumeng, who was standing by, heard this, pulled Lin Xiaoxue into her arms, and said with a gentle smile:

"Xiaoxue, Awang did the right thing.

Although the roasted rabbit was delicious, it was eaten up in no time.

But if it were replaced with food, it would feed us for several days.”

After saying this, Liu Rumeng cast an approving look at Lin Huowang.

Lin Huowang smiled and nodded, and asked Liu Rumeng to collect the twenty kilograms of corn flour and twenty-two eggs.

Then he leaned close to his sister Lin Xiaoxue's ear and comforted her, "Xiaoxue, be good. I still have a rabbit and I promise you will get some meat."

"Ah? Really!

But, brother, you have to give it to mom first.

My mother is sick, and she needs to eat meat to nourish her body."

Lin Xiaoxue, who was originally in a low mood, immediately brightened up.

However, at this moment.

Captain Lin Jianguo, who had been hiding in the crowd, stood out with a sinister look on his face and accused Lin Huowang with a righteous look:

"The forest is raging! You are so brave.

How dare they openly engage in speculation and profiteering here, engage in bourgeois corruption, and corrupt the morals of the village.

You were still in the team headquarters this morning, saying that you were a genuine poor peasant.

I think you have been completely led astray by Liu Rumeng, the eldest daughter of the capitalist roader faction."

Wow!

The villagers and educated youth were all shocked at once.

These days, being accused of "speculation and profiteering" is no small matter; you will be criticized or even sent to jail.

In the past few years, the rectification movement was very severe, and some people were even killed. Even now, many of those capitalist-roaders are still doing the hardest and most tiring work in the cowshed!

So, when the team leader Lin Jianguo came out to severely criticize Lin Huowang under the banner of "speculation and profiteering"...

Everyone was sweating profusely and unconsciously took a step back, indicating that they wanted to distance themselves from the matter of Lin Huowang.

Zhong Yuejin and Tian Jinbu, the two educated youth who were happily eating roasted rabbit meat, were so frightened that they trembled all over and stopped talking.

After swallowing his saliva, Zhong Yuejin began to tremble all over, feeling a little at a loss.

Those villagers who were watching were certainly fine, at most they were just looking for trouble, but they were actually participating in Lin Huowang's speculative transactions!

If Captain Lin Jianguo took note of this, even if he was not criticized or imprisoned, his chance of returning home in the next few years would be completely hopeless.

When Tian Jinbu thought of this, he was so scared that he started to cry. He held the rabbit leg that he had not finished eating and begged Lin Jianguo:

"Captain Lin! I... I really didn't know this was speculation. It was all caused by Lin Huowang.

You should eat a rabbit leg quickly to cool down.

Punish Lin Huowang, it’s all his fault, it’s none of our business…”

Seeing that Tian Jinbu was so sensible, Lin Jianguo didn't hesitate to grab the roasted rabbit leg and chewed it with relish, saying with a smile:

"Tian Zhiqing, look! People like you have a very high level of awareness!

How is it possible that you educated youth who went to the countryside to receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants did not make any mistakes?

It's not a big deal if you are accidentally misled and make a small mistake.

As long as you can clearly recognize your mistakes, you are still a legitimate successor to socialism. "

As he spoke, Lin Jianguo snorted again, his eyes fixed directly on Lin Huowang:

“As for some people, they blatantly violated national policies.

He engaged in speculation and profiteering in the village and refused to admit his mistakes.

Their ideas are extremely stubborn and have seriously affected the simple and honest customs of our Linjiagou.

The forest fire is raging, what are you looking at?

This captain is talking about you. This time, the whole village saw it.

You exchanged two roasted rabbits, two educated youths, Zhong Yuejin and Tian Jinbu, and Lin Jianye for twenty kilograms of corn flour and twenty-two eggs.

The evidence is irrefutable!

Let's see how you can still deny it. The country is now cracking down on all forms of speculation.

Someone, come! Lin Huowang is guilty of speculation!

Arrest him! And take him to the commune!"
