Li Haojun was so angry that he kept saying, "It's all your fault! If you hadn't come to me, I would still be playing cards! How could I have gotten into this!"
After he finished speaking, he realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and quickly shut his mouth.
But it was too late. The fat woman had already heard it and immediately came over yelling and beat him up again.
Ten minutes later, Li Haojun covered his face, pouted, and crawled up again.
Zhou Bin and his two assistants couldn't help laughing.
When Li Haojun saw that everyone was laughing at him, he immediately became furious: "What are you laughing at! If you laugh again, I will beat you up!"
Zhou Bin also realized that they were going a bit too far, and immediately signaled with his eyes, and everyone stopped laughing immediately.
Zhou Bin couldn't help but say, "Village Chief Li, this is... too... too..."
"It's so cowardly, isn't it?" Li Haojun actually said it directly.
Zhou Bin could only nod and smile: "Yes... a little bit."
Li Haojun shook his head: "Then you have misjudged me. I, Li Haojun, am not a coward!"
When the fat woman heard this, she immediately cursed: "You are a coward! There is no one in the world more cowardly than you."
With that the fat woman turned around and went into the house in angrily, leaving Li Haojun standing alone in the yard.
When Zhou Bin saw this, he quickly asked him to sit down and talk.
Li Haojun then slowly sat down on the stool. Today, he suddenly felt very blocked in his heart, like a wall that made it hard for him to breathe.
He said again: "I'm really not a coward! I...I was even more outrageous than you before!"
Zhou Bin saw him saying this, as if something had happened, so he took the opportunity to say, "I don't believe it! Didn't you just blame me for hurting you?"
When Li Haojun saw that Zhou Bin didn't believe him, he immediately started telling the story excitedly.
It turns out that Li Haojun is a native of Lijiazhai, and his ancestors for generations were all honest farmers.
But when it came to Li Haojun, the situation at home was already very bad.
His father placed all his hopes on Li Haojun, hoping that he could achieve success and bring honor to the family in the future.
Li Haojun also showed extraordinary intelligence and talent. He performed particularly well in his studies and often ranked first in the class.
My father was so happy that he secretly thanked God, saying that their Li family finally had a scholar.
I thought he would go to school step by step, get into university and become a educated person in the future.
Unexpectedly, the whole environment suddenly changed drastically, and Li Haojun's study journey was forced to be interrupted.
His father cried bitterly, but there was nothing he could do.
Like many people at that time, Li Haojun returned home after finishing junior high school and became a farmer, working in the fields every day.
Gradually, Commander Li Hao grew into a big young man. He was hardworking and smart, and was loved by everyone.
At this time, the matchmakers in the village began to arrange a marriage for him, but strangely, Li Haojun refused every time.
This made his father very anxious, and later Li Haojun confessed that he had a sweetheart.
After further questioning, the father learned that the girl he loved was named Wang Meijuan, a girl from Wangjia Village.
Later, my father sent someone to secretly inquire about the matter, and also went to see it secretly himself.
After seeing it, he felt relieved, because Meijuan was a kind-hearted girl, dexterous, and in good health. Everyone said that she was a good girl.
The father was very satisfied, and later he took out all his savings to marry his beloved girl to his son.
After getting married, Li Haojun and Wang Meijuan were very much in love, and their son was born soon after.
Wang Meijuan is kind and hardworking. She takes good care of Li Haojun's father and is praised by people around her.
In the blink of an eye, their son grew to be two years old. They named him Baowa and loved him very much.
Although life was very difficult at that time, the two of them were hardworking and managed to get by.
But who knew that a terrible disaster would suddenly and unexpectedly befall them.
Li Haojun remembered that it was noon and the family was having dinner in the yard when suddenly a group of young men with fierce looks on their faces rushed in and said that his father was a bad element and wanted to arrest him.
Before they could react, their father was taken away.
Li Haojun was frightened and got up and chased after him.
When Wang Meijuan saw her father-in-law being taken away and her husband chasing after him, she was terrified and picked up her son Baowa and rushed over.
Li Haojun arrived at the threshing ground and as soon as he saw the situation, he knew that things were going badly.
Because in addition to his father, many people were arrested, especially Master Li, a highly respected person in the village, who was also tied to a tree for public display.
Those people said that they broke the regulations, traded privately, engaged in speculation and profiteering, and were a group of bad people.
But the villagers knew that this was not speculation at all, it was just everyone helping each other in order to survive.
But there were dozens of them, all holding weapons in their hands, and they were so arrogant that no one dared to speak.
Everyone lowered their heads and allowed them to make groundless accusations and humiliate those poor honest people.
In particular, they said that Li Haojun's father helped others secretly make coffins, which was a heinous crime and a destruction of public morals, and he deserved to be put to death.
In short, he said nothing good about the person and even wanted to behead him.
The more Li Haojun listened, the angrier he became. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he yelled and started to debate with them.
Li Haojun asked angrily, "Who among you doesn't have parents? Don't you feel guilty for treating the elderly like this? Besides, the dead cannot be buried in peace. Is this the so-called new trend? Farmers have worked hard all their lives, and you can't even ask for this?"
