“You two keep digging, you two go down to the cellar and take a closer look.
This matter is extremely serious. I will eradicate this cancer at all costs, even if I have to dig deep into the ground!"
The director of the Revolutionary Committee looked steadily at Director Ma who was tied up and ordered, "This kid won't cry until he sees the coffin. The letter of complaint has been sent to him, but he still refuses to admit it."
Fortunately, the director of the Revolutionary Committee was leading the team personally today. Lu Wensheng had met this man at the last award ceremony, and it was even him who submitted his application to join the party.
Although he is not a very decent person, he still has the ability to do things. He subconsciously pressed down his tattered cotton hat and said to Shen Lingling beside him in a low voice:
"The chairman of the Revolutionary Committee is here. Director Ma can't escape this time!"
Shen Lingling nodded. She looked among the crowd for a long time. Except for Director Ma's family who were forced to kneel on the ground, she did not see Director Ma's brother-in-law. Could it be that he did not come?
"Shengsheng, have you seen Director Ma's brother-in-law?"
"Today is a double-day. He must be at the widow's place at the back at this time."
As Lu Wensheng spoke, he pointed to the tightly closed door behind him.
It's not normal at all when there's such a big commotion outside and there's no noise in the house!
"We have to find a way to lure the enemy out, or we'll lose this opportunity in vain."
This opportunity is rare, and Shen Lingling really wants to catch both of them in one fell swoop before leaving.
"It's easy. We do this, then that, and finally..."
Lu Wensheng whispered a lot in Shen Lingling's ear, and the latter's eyes became brighter and brighter as she listened, and she admired her little sister's beautiful brain more and more.
And she secretly swore in her heart that she would cling to her little sisters in this life... no, in this life, the next life, and the next life!
"Okay, let's do it!"
"The excitement here won't end for a while, let's go to the young widow's house first."
Lu Wensheng was about to jump down, but Shen Lingling grabbed his arm and said sternly:
"Shengsheng, let me do it! Only I can do this. I can't implicate you. If there is retribution, let it be on me."
Without waiting for Lu Wensheng to say anything, he resolutely jumped off the wall and while everyone's attention was on Director Ma's house, he quietly went to the young widow's house behind.
Lu Wensheng looked at the backs of the little sisters as they walked away, feeling mixed emotions. He felt a sense of relief that "his children have grown up", but at the same time, he also felt a little distressed.
Think about how kind and gentle Lingling was when she first went to the countryside, how she was gloomy and resolute after her rebirth, and how she is ruthless and resolute now. I have seen her transformation with my own eyes, and of course I also know what price she paid.
Thinking of this, he jumped off the wall and chased in the direction where the little sisters disappeared.
What is the matter with retribution? In the original book, Lingling suffered so much unfair treatment, but those people never got any retribution. She had to be reborn and solve it herself.
Even if there really is retribution, she would like to see it.
Following Shengsheng's plan, Shen Lingling asked Xiaoguang to buy some smoke bombs and a bottle of strong liquor.
After going to the young widow's house, he found the window of the main room, cut the window paper with a knife, quickly stuffed two smoke bombs and a burning old clothes in, and left without looking back.
Of course, the clothes were the ones she secretly stole from the Ma family last night. She sprinkled a lot of white wine on them before setting them on fire. She didn't expect that they would come in handy here.
The reason why she did it so efficiently was because the young widow was not a good person. From the information Xiaoguang gave, the young widow's husband and parents-in-law were angered to death by her, and her source of income in recent years was the secret door.
Shen Lingling suddenly felt that she had some talent for not being reported for all these years.
Lu Wensheng was watching at the intersection, and was relieved to see Shen Lingling return unharmed. After thinking for a while, he returned to the crowd and shouted loudly in the most inconspicuous place:
"Whose house is that back there? It looks like it's on fire!"
Everyone looked back following the sound and saw that there was a fire. The thick smoke billowing from the roof scared everyone!
"Is that Widow Li's house? I haven't seen her go out for a while. Could something have happened to her?"
Immediately, a man said unhappily: "What nonsense are you talking about? Did you see it?"
The person who was speaking was one of Widow Li’s lovers. He had gone in yesterday. It must be very warm in her house!
But what this man said was not wrong. It was indeed Widow Li’s house that was on fire, and he couldn’t help but feel a little anxious.
Then another woman spoke up: "My dear, I live next to her house, I have to go back to see her, don't let her get my family into trouble!
Everyone, help put out the fire quickly, the wind is so strong. Be careful that sparks don't fly into your house!"
As he was about to run back, the man who had just spoken hurriedly followed him:
"Auntie, I'll go back with you to put out the fire!"
The old lady was touched when she saw the young man who was more anxious than herself:
"This guy is really nice, he runs faster than me!"
The crowd here was in a commotion, and several nearby families were afraid that the fire would spread to them, so they hurried home to get buckets of water to put out the fire.
The director of the Revolutionary Committee also heard the noise and made a prompt decision:
"Leave a few people to watch over Director Ma and his family, and you continue digging. The rest of you, come with me to put out the fire!"
Fortunately, he brought a lot of people with him, otherwise it would not be enough. A fire in the middle of winter is not a good thing. The northwest wind can burn down a whole area.
A group of people ran towards the backyard in a mighty manner. Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling mixed in the crowd and followed.
When we arrived at Widow Li's house, the main room was already on fire. Although the fire was not big, there was thick smoke. If you didn't know, you would think it was a big fire.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started to put out the fire. The man followed several firefighters into the house to check on Widow Li.
After a while, he ran out dragging the disheveled Widow Li, followed by Director Ma's brother-in-law, who was covered in dust. He was only wearing a pair of trousers, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell what had happened inside.
Everyone was in an uproar, and seeing that the fire was almost out, they all leaned their heads out to watch the fun.
