In a wilderness outside Yushutun Village.
A particularly large white cloth was pulled up, which was very conspicuous.
In the crowd, the projectionist was leisurely smoking a cigarette and adjusting the machine, waiting for the time to come and everyone to gather before starting the screening.
This man is very popular in this era. There are many young girls and wives around him, most of whom come to ask about things and gossip.
For example, they can find out which village will be showing a movie at the next stop so they can go and watch it.
Nowadays, many people are willing to travel across mountains and rivers just to watch a movie.
Some people had ulterior motives and tried to find out the projectionist's background, and their intentions were clear at a glance.
The projectionist had seen this a lot, so he naturally talked about it. For a while, there was constant laughter and joy, which attracted the attention of people around him.
Although it was just past dinner time, there was still more than half an hour before the movie started.
But the villagers were not afraid of the cold at all. They all came to take up seats, and it was common for one person to take up seven or eight seats.
Looking around, the benches are so densely packed that there is no empty seat to be seen.
No matter how tall Yunxiu is, she is not taller than those standing men. If she stays at the back, she will not be able to see the movie anyway.
Zhao Wei led her through the crowd and soon found Erlaizi and the others.
After all, they are young, and each of them occupies a few front positions, one of which is reserved for the two of them.
"Master, Master's Wife, we are waiting for you. Come and sit down and have a rest!"
"Stop it, I have something to ask you..."
After quietly asking them about the situation in the village, Zhao Wei pushed Yunxiu onto a bench and said to Erlaizi and the others, "You guys take care of Yunxiu and don't let anyone bully her, or I won't let you off."
Several people nodded in agreement and told him to go about his business without worrying about anything else.
Zhao Wei bent down and spoke to Yunxiu before leaving.
After taking a quick look at the crowd, he discovered that his grandmother and the people from her two rooms had not come to watch the movie yet. They must have been held up by something.
I think the rumors spread during the day have already taken effect.
This kind of excitement is much better than a movie, he can't miss it.
So, he ran to his grandmother's house without hesitation.
Sure enough, there were already a dozen families gathered there, cursing non-stop.
"Zhao Liu, tell me quickly, did you sell my little girl? You are so cruel. I raised her to this age and was about to find her a husband, but you sold her away in the blink of an eye. Are you still a human being?"
"My Huzi has been missing for only three months. It must be you who did it! Come out...give my son back to me..."
These people were crazy and were smashing the gate frantically.
If they had evidence, they would not have come here empty-handed, but would have come with knives to cut the old woman into pieces.
As expected, some people in the village speculated that it was impossible to make the grandmother confess her guilt. She would never open the gate or admit that she had done such a thing.
She even turned the tables and said these people were blackmailing her, an old woman.
The two sides were deadlocked there, and it was useless to argue with each other.
After all, without any witnesses or physical evidence, even if the milk was sent in, it would not be shot.
Zhao Wei curled his lips. How could there be no evidence? Those sales receipts were most likely at the bottom of the milk box.
He was just thinking about getting the money at the beginning and didn't take a closer look at his grandmother's private collection.
But this did not stop him from revealing this matter.
He immediately pinched his neck and said something in a shrill voice behind the crowd.
"The evidence is in Zhao Liu's room. Look through her boxes and you'll find out whose family your child was kidnapped to!"
He didn't believe that his grandmother would destroy the evidence. That thing could prevent the buyer from arguing. If he asked her to return the money and the person, there would be something written in black and white to use.
As soon as these words were spoken, the victims, who had been somewhat restrained, could no longer hold back and banged on the gate of the Zhao family's courtyard frantically.
"Zhao Liu, didn't you say that it had nothing to do with you? Didn't we wrongly accuse you? Do you dare to let us check your box?"
"If we don't find anything, we are willing to apologize to you. But if we do find anything, we will send you to be shot. Do you dare?"
…
Her grandmother didn't dare to do so at first. She didn't want to die, so she insisted on blocking the door.
What a pity, he raised a lot of good sons and grandsons.
They didn't know that she had done so many immoral things, and yet she was still preaching righteously.
Uncle Zhao Wei said impatiently, "Mom, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You didn't do it. Why are you pretending? Just let them come in and check. If they keep ramming like this, our gate will be broken."
The fourth son, Zhao Long, also limped forward, touched his head and said uncomfortably: "Mom, their noise is making my head buzz. Please find a way to send them away quickly. I'm going crazy!"
…
But the grandson Zhao Qian was the one who liked to show off. When a group of adults were talking together, he decisively stepped forward and pulled open the bolt of the courtyard gate.
There was a loud "bang" and a group of people rushed in, which scared Zhao Qian.
He somewhat underestimated the capabilities of the victims' families, and with his small body, he was almost knocked away by the crowd.
The sound of Zhao Liu's roar came from the yard.
