"Li Jiangang, Li Jiangang, something bad has happened! Come here quickly!"
Liu Chunhua shouted loudly.
Li Jiangang was still putting on his pants. When he heard Liu Chunhua howling, he ran out without even buttoning his pants and asked, "What's wrong?"
Liu Chunhua pointed to the empty room and said, "Li Xia and Gu Shian are gone!"
Li Jiangang was confused and asked, "Gone? Where could they go?"
"You asked me, and I wanted to ask you too!" Liu Chunhua said unhappily. Then she seemed to remember something, slapped her thigh, shouted "Oh no", and immediately ran towards her bedroom.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, he crawled under the bed and opened the brick to take a look.
Where is the money?
Where's her money?
Liu Chunhua was stunned. Her head felt dizzy, her ears were buzzing, and her chest was aching.
How come she had saved so much money with great effort, and it was all gone?
No matter how stupid she was, she understood at this moment that her money must have been stolen by Li Xia. Li Xia gave her two hundred yuan last night just to find out where she hid the money!
It’s over, it’s all over!
Her family's job at Yuejin and her daughter-in-law from the city, all went to waste!
Liu Chunhua couldn't stand anymore and sat down on the ground.
"You damned little bitch, you took all our money!"
"I have saved so much money for so many years, and I didn't spend it on food or clothes, but now it's all been taken away. This is going to kill me! I won't live anymore!"
"Li Jiangang, your little whore! She must have used my money to find a strange man!"
"Yes, he must have gone to find Zhou Qingshan! No, I have to go to the county town immediately to find Zhou Qingshan and ask him to return the money to me!" Thinking of this, Liu Chunhua got up from the ground, turned around and ran outside.
On the other side, in the principal's office.
"Our school will never allow students who use bribery, cheating, and improper conduct to exist!"
"After our investigation, we found that the person who should have been recommended to attend the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University was another educated youth. After he went to the countryside, he had been undergoing the transformation of the poor and lower-middle peasants. Every time he finished his work, he would take the initiative to help others and go up the mountain to chop firewood for the elderly in the village.
He has never given up on learning and has always used his free time to learn knowledge. This is a good comrade worthy of our learning! "
"Originally, such an outstanding educated youth was supposed to come to our university to study, but unexpectedly, Zhou Qingshan, an opportunist, snatched his place!"
"Zhou Qingshan, you are now expelled from our university. You are no longer a student of our university!"
After hearing these words, Zhou Qingshan's body softened and he immediately fell to the ground.
"Principal, Principal, please listen to my explanation...I didn't..."
However, the security guard kicked him out of the school without even waiting for him to finish his words.
When his former classmates saw him, they immediately turned their heads away, as if it would be dirty to look at him any longer.
"How shameless! You actually did something so despicable."
"You are the scum of society, you are trash!"
"The thought of having been his classmate has almost become a stain on my life."
"I heard that he often wrote harassing letters to a soldier's family. This kind of person is so hateful. He should be arrested!"
Zhou Qingshan saw the person he was about to marry in the crowd and immediately said, "Xiaoya, I was wronged. I didn't do these things!"
After he said this, everyone's attention fell on the girl named Xiaoya.
Xiaoya just rolled her eyes at him, said "we're over", and turned and left.
Zhou Qingshan felt like the sky was falling. The school expelled him, and Xiaoya didn't want him anymore...
His bright future had all flown away!
They are all Li Xia!
He had clearly already paid back all the money he owed to Li Xia, but she still reported him!
Zhou Qingshan got up from the ground. He wanted to go to Daxi Village to settle the score with Li Xia. Li Xia had ruined his future, and he would not let Li Xia go just like that!
…
When Zhou Qingshan arrived at the entrance of Daxi Village, he happened to meet Liu Chunhua and Li Jiangang who were going to the city to find Zhou Qingshan.
"Zhou Qingshan! You came just in time! Tell me, did you instigate Li Xia to steal my money and elope with you? Return the money to me!"
When Liu Chunhua thought that more than 3,000 yuan of her money had been stolen, she was so angry that she had a heart attack. When she saw Zhou Qingshan, she immediately rushed up to him, jumped up and gave him a slap in the face.
Zhou Qingshan had just been slapped on the left side of his face, and now he was slapped on the right side of his face. He was so angry that he was almost going crazy. He clenched his fist and punched Liu Chunhua in the face:
"Stop slandering me! You knew that Li Xia had reported me, so you deliberately hid Li Xia. Now you want to accuse me of stealing your money, right? I'll beat you to death, you black-hearted old hag!"
After saying that, Zhou Qingshan gritted his teeth and punched Liu Chunhua in the face.
"Hand over Li Xia quickly!" One punch.
"Hurry up! If you don't hand over Li Xia, I will kill you two old people!" Another punch.
"explain!"
Zhou Qingshan was like a madman, his eyes were red, and his punches hit the flesh. Liu Chunhua, an old woman over fifty years old, was no match for him. After a few punches, Liu Chunhua's mouth was bleeding, and her head was also broken and bleeding.
Liu Chunhua fell in a pool of blood and struggled to ask for help from Li Jiangang who came over: "Jiangang..."
When she opened her mouth, she found that several of her teeth had been knocked out.
"I'm going to fight you!" When Li Jiangang saw Liu Chunhua being beaten, he rushed up and fought with Zhou Qingshan.
Zhou Qingshan punched Li Jiangang again. Liu Chunhua got up, picked up a stone and smashed it hard on Zhou Qingshan's head.
"Damn it, I'm going to fight you!"
"I'll beat you to death!"
"Hand over Li Xia, or I'll kill you!"
…
While the three of them were fighting fiercely, Li Xia had already taken An An on the train to the army.
At that time, there were no fixed seats for train tickets. You could sit wherever there was a seat available. If you were unlucky and there were no seats available, you could only stand all the way. Or you could just sit anywhere between two carriages. It was not that particular.
Li Xia and An An were lucky enough. Because their county train station was close to the departure station, there were not many people on the train at that time, and they quickly found empty seats.
Normally, An An shouldn't need a ticket at her age, but Li Xia still bought one for her, because one ticket is for one seat, and An An can't sit without a ticket. This train ride takes 20 to 30 hours, and Li Xia doesn't want to save this little money.
It was An An's first time taking a train. From the moment she entered the train station, she couldn't help looking around, and now she was looking here and there.
"Mom, this is the train. It's so long." An An said excitedly.
An An sat beside her mother, swinging her feet that couldn't reach the ground due to her short height, watching the fields and mountains passing by outside the window, and the smoke rising from the farm in the distance...
Before leaving, Li Xia went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought some peach cakes and pastries that were easy to store.
At that time, there were no carts selling "melon seeds, peanuts and mineral water" like in later generations. During the 30-hour journey, Li Xia had to eat several meals on the train, so he spent all the sugar coupons he had.
At that time, the toilet on the train was dirty and small. In order to avoid going to the toilet, Li Xia didn't even dare to drink water.
But five hours later, a hot current suddenly surged from my lower body.
Li Xia immediately realized that she might be having her period.
What bad luck, I have my period at this time!
Li Xia subconsciously wanted to take An An to the toilet with her. After all, there were all kinds of people on the train, and she was worried about leaving An An alone.
But when I got to the toilet door, I saw that the train toilets in the 1970s could not be called toilets at all. There was a wooden barrel with a hole in the bottom that led directly to the track under the train, and the excrement was directly discharged onto the track.
It is dirty, smelly and small. It is too crowded for one person to go in. It can't even accommodate two people!
There was no other way, so Li Xia could only say to An An: "An An, Mommy needs to go to the bathroom, you just wait for Mommy at the door, don't wander around, okay?"
An An nodded obediently.
However, just as Li Xia entered the toilet, a man and a woman in another carriage exchanged glances.
The man stood up from his seat and strode towards An An.
