Suihe wanted to confirm how many people were inside, so he continued to listen patiently. In that era, that kind of thing was extremely taboo. Suihe, who was only three months away from turning 18, was just a child in the eyes of Professor Jiang Huashu and his wife. In modern times, that would be just a senior year of high school. What did a brat know about this? So, they didn't even think about educating him. Suddenly, the woman in the room started screaming loudly, sounding like she was in agony, on the verge of collapse. The sounds were punctuated by rhythmic slapping sounds, like the sound of a bamboo stick being whipped, or a feather duster being used to lash out at her buttocks or thighs.
Oh no, the people in the house have been beaten and can't hold on any longer! Without further ado, Suihe straightened up and jumped directly from the pigpen to the courtyard wall. The little boy Xingxing was still using his hands as a telescope to check the enemy situation and keep sentry, when the eldest brother came up quietly.
He quickly got Xingxing down from the tree. The mischievous boy was still in his state, looking around cautiously, probably to prevent any bad guys. Suihe carried him home, but halfway there, Suihe remembered that his fourth uncle and fifth grandfather might be at the brigade headquarters, so he changed direction and rushed towards the headquarters, carrying Xingxing.
When I got there, I saw a room full of important people in the village, mostly elderly villagers, who were talking about things happening in the fields in autumn.
Suihe didn't even bother to greet everyone one by one. He just shouted at his fourth uncle, "Uncle, hurry up, there's a murderer at An Cuiyun's house. Xingxing just found out while climbing a tree to catch cicadas!"
After hearing what his elder brother said, the doll Xingxing, who was holding the doll in Suihe's hand, nodded frantically at his father and shouted fearlessly: "Murder! Murder! Hurry up and save him! If you go too late, he will die!"
Everyone in the room stood up and ran out. Grandpa Wu rushed out and ran a few steps, then turned back, went into the house, found two sticks, threw one to Suihe, and ran out again. The people following him also ran in the same direction.
On the way, I encountered housewives from handicraft factories just getting off work. Some had just finished their shift at the pickle factory, some had just left the weaving factory in the front row, and some had just left the jam canning yard. In short, a large group of them were busy heading home. Seeing the village elders, they all ran away, wondering what had happened? The women, eager to watch the excitement, didn't even bother to go home, but all ran in the same direction. It's really quite a sight to behold! If there were a drone to capture it now, it would be quite a sight.
They first ran to An Cuiyun's house and didn't even knock on the door. Militiaman Dongzi directly climbed over the wall into the yard and opened the locked gate. The villagers were really scared. Not only were they afraid of someone dying, but before, there were educated youth sent to the countryside to work as spies, and later, the spy chief Guan Laogou hid in the village for thirty years before being discovered. Their Guanjia Village was well-known in the surrounding villages. If someone died again today, marriage in the village would probably be a problem for the next ten or twenty years. Which good girl would be willing to marry into a village with such a bad atmosphere? And who would be willing to marry a girl from a village with such a bad atmosphere? So in order to prevent further murders, everyone acted in coordination and really quickly.
After entering the yard, Dongzi walked a few steps to the door of the house and kicked it open. Fifth Grandpa Suihe and others followed in and rushed in to catch the murderer.
When they entered the inner room, they found the murderer was nowhere to be found! It was An Cuiyun's mother and a naked man with only his back exposed, "fighting" on the kang!
