Seeing himself being convicted, Xie Wan recalled the introduction of Huang Jianguo in the book.
She thought quickly and shouted, "I suspect Huang Jianguo is a spy!"
The word "spy" is always an extremely heavy word in any era.
The yard, which had been noisy just a moment ago, suddenly became silent. Everyone automatically stepped back and distanced themselves from Huang Jianguo.
"I went to the reed marsh to catch spies! I didn't have any affair with a slut."
Xie Wan emphasized again.
Ren Chunmei, who had just untied Huang Jianguo, stopped, took two steps back, turned around and shouted at Xie Wan: "You are talking nonsense!"
Huang Jianguo looked at Xie Wan in panic and shook his head repeatedly: "I am innocent, I am not a spy. She framed me!"
The captain's expression also became serious. He stared at Xie Wan and questioned, "Don't make up stories to clear your name and make false accusations against others, which will only add to your crime."
Xie Wan certainly knew that Huang Jianguo was not a spy.
But she remembered that the book said that Huang Jianguo's family background was not very good and he had an aunt living abroad.
You are unkind and I am unjust. Huang Jianguo dared to frame her, so she will make Huang Jianguo taste the feeling of being framed.
"I'm not talking nonsense. If you don't believe me, go check out Huang Jianguo. His aunt is in the American Empire, and his whole family is a bunch of stinking ninth graders!"
In that era, all intellectuals were called "stinking ninths" and had to undergo labor reform along with the poor and lower-middle peasants.
When Huang Jianguo heard Xie Wan mention his family background and knew that his aunt was in the United States, his heart skipped a beat and his face turned pale.
"You...how do you know all this!"
In order to escape, Xie Wan threw out the original owner's invisible father: "My father told me that he asked me to keep a close eye on you, the bad guy, to prevent you from engaging in espionage activities in Renjia Village!"
After Xie Wan said this, the captain had to take it seriously.
When he wanted to deal with Xie Wan at will before, he just treated her as a girl from Ren Tiezhu's family and forgot that she had a father in the army.
Tao Hongmei was a little surprised and asked dully, "When did your father contact you?"
Xie Wan really wanted to curse!
This mother is selfish and stupid. She doesn't want to help her daughter clear the charges, but comes to sabotage her now.
The captain also reacted. How about her biological father? Xie Wan's biological father had long since abandoned her.
After Tao Hongmei ran back to Renjia Village with her child more than ten years ago, that man has never appeared again.
Because of this, Xie Wancai has always been called "bastard" by the villagers.
Xie Wan must be talking nonsense.
His father has never been to Renjia Village, so how could he tell her about Huang Jianguo?
The captain yelled, "Xie Wan, stop talking nonsense here. If you act like a hooligan, you are a hooligan. Don't even think about clearing yourself."
When Xie Wan saw the portrait of the great man hanging on the wall of the village committee, he realized that quotations from the gods were the most effective in this era.
She could remember very few words of great men, but fortunately she had heard of Seeking Truth from Facts, so she quickly put them into practice:
“The Chairman taught us – without investigation, there is no right to speak!
Why do you say I'm talking bullshit?
My biological father told me that. I sneaked into town last month and called my biological father's army. He said that at that time.
You convicted me without investigating. You are not listening to the Chairman. You have committed a subjective and arbitrary ideological error and need to be criticized!"
The captain was nervous.
In this era, not listening to the Chairman is a big mistake. If this girl really finds something wrong with you, he said that you may not really be criticized.
He quickly corrected, “When did I say I wouldn’t investigate?
Whether it's your hooliganism or whether Huang Jianguo is a spy, we need to investigate thoroughly!"
Xie Wan felt relieved, as long as they were willing to investigate.
As long as they are willing to investigate, they won't rush to send her to the labor camp tomorrow, and she still has a chance to turn the situation around.
Who knew Tao Hongmei would come out to make trouble again, asking Xie Wan: "How could you have your biological father's phone number?"
Xie Wan almost went berserk.
How could this be her biological mother? This was clearly an enemy who wished her dead. She sneered, “My father remits five dollars to me every month, and there is a phone number on the remittance slip.
You took my father's money but didn't give me food. If you keep interrupting me, I will tell my father and I will not send you any money in the future!"
Tao Hongmei immediately covered her mouth tightly.
She didn't mean to harm her daughter, she was just curious about how her daughter got in touch with her ex-husband?
Huang Jianguo was tied up again and locked in a dark room.
Xie Wan also failed to escape and was locked up next to him.
The matter of spies is not something that a village captain can suppress.
The team leader hurried to the town to report to the Revolutionary Committee and asked the committee to interrogate him.
The villagers dispersed and militiamen were guarding outside the door.
Xie Wan's stomach was growling with hunger, but no one brought her food. It seemed that she would have to spend the night hungry.
Now she has calmed down and thought carefully. She is not afraid even if the Revolutionary Committee comes to investigate tomorrow.
She insisted that she was going to catch a spy. Even if Huang Jianguo was not a spy, it was a fact that his family had overseas connections.
In this day and age, having overseas connections is suspicious. What's wrong with her keeping a close eye on Huang Jianguo?
In the middle of the night, Xie Wan was startled by a noise near the wall and heard a voice saying:
"Squeak, there's a girl in this room. I wonder if she's dead. If she's dead, we'll have meat to eat!"
Xie Wan was so scared that she sat up straight. There was no light in the room and she couldn't see who was talking.
"Squeak, squeak, this girl is alive and can't be eaten." The voice said again.
Xie Wan got used to the darkness in the room. He glanced around the room with the moonlight coming in through the window, but found no one.
