When Yu Yin got up in the morning, she went to check next door and learned that Director Chu hadn't come back all night, so she guessed that something was wrong.
After breakfast, Su Yixian brought over her youngest child and her two older children.
"Xiao Lu, could you please take Chu Yang to school for me? Yu Yin and I will take Chu Chen with us."
Chu Yang used to go to school by himself, but he got up late today and couldn't walk there in time, so he asked Lu Shurui to take him by bike.
"Okay, I'm all packed. Yangyang, let's go."
Lu Shurui rode off on his bicycle with Chu Yang on the back, and Ping An and Chu Chen chattered away as they ran towards the nursery.
"Sister Yixian, you should take the child and not go. I'll just watch him go in on the way."
The third son of the Chu family was chubby, and it was quite a struggle for Su Yixian to hold him.
Su Yixian was overjoyed; her arms were sore from carrying her so much.
Here, people are going to work, going to school, or doing their morning exercise—it's a peaceful scene.
Over there, Chu Jianguo and his team's car had already entered the Yunlin Brigade. The rumble of the car attracted the attention of the people in the brigade who were working.
Some people who were unaware of the situation were wondering why a car was coming in so early in the morning, and what had happened.
Those who lived near the educated youth settlement or were Hao's relatives and friends who participated all turned pale.
The car stopped at the brigade headquarters. Chu Weiguo and Director Zhang got out of the car, and the others dispersed to carry out their assigned tasks.
Upon hearing the news, Hao Wanlin rushed over and his heart skipped a beat when he saw Director Zhang standing at the entrance of the team headquarters. He knew Director Zhang was a police officer who had been transferred to the county, but he didn't know his specific position. He quickly offered his congratulations:
"What wind blew Zhang Gong'an here? It's an honor to have you here."
Although Hao Wanlin was a hunter, he loved reading. It's a pity... otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to his son marrying a female educated youth, since she was cultured.
"Captain Hao, let's not beat around the bush. We already know that you've been harming educated youth. You should confess the truth and try to get a lighter sentence!"
Director Zhang took the initiative, hoping to subdue this old fox.
Hao Wanlin squinted his small eyes, but his mouth uttered infuriating words.
“Officer Zhang, this is slander. My son and daughter-in-law were in a free-love relationship and got married voluntarily.”
Then, thinking of the group of educated youth who were injured at the educated youth settlement, he realized he couldn't hide it any longer and said, "The conflict with the educated youth was because some of them liked my daughter-in-law and wanted to take advantage of her, which is why the conflict happened."
These distorted facts almost made Chu Jianguo lose his temper.
Director Zhang tugged at Chu Jianguo, saying, "Calm down, calm down. These villagers are xenophobic and sometimes disregard the law."
"Is that so? Then call your son and daughter-in-law out and let's talk things out in person."
Zhang Qiang, who has worked at the bottom for many years, is very good at enduring humiliation.
"Well, Officer Zhang, the young couple had their wedding night last night, you know, they're still not up."
The old man's words about being a scoundrel were rather disgusting.
Chu Jianguo's heart skipped a beat; this female educated youth had been harmed.
We can't keep dragging this out; I wonder how he is doing.
"Director Zhang, let's try a different approach."
Chu Jianguo and Director Zhang discussed in hushed tones, so softly that no one else could hear them, which greatly worried Hao Wanlin.
He was also worried; the previous incident was unlikely to be resolved peacefully. They had tried to ambush the two female educated youths who had escaped near the commune, but they hadn't expected them to have run off to the county.
"Okay, I think that's a good idea. Let's do it your way. The militia should be back soon, let them assist you."
After discussing it for a long time, the two made a decision.
"Director Zhang, the people at the educated youth settlement are all injured and are trapped inside the educated youth compound. We have them under control."
The young police officer who came to report was furious. When they found the educated youth compound, they were shocked by the terrible scene.
The courtyard gate was sealed with wooden strips. They broke it down and found nothing intact in the courtyard. Faint groans could be heard coming from inside the house.
They pushed open the door and entered. Seven or eight educated youths were lying haphazardly on the ground, their faces, arms, and legs covered in bruises, blue and purple, a shocking sight.
Two others were seriously injured; their legs appeared to be broken, twisted unnaturally.
The room looked like it had been ransacked; things were scattered everywhere, and the boxes were upside down, with everything missing. The entire educated youth settlement looked like it had been robbed or was the scene of a large-scale brawl.
The educated youth present were all unconscious, unable to communicate normally, and some had even lost consciousness; their condition was not good.
"Gather everyone, move out," Director Zhang ordered.
After hearing the junior policeman's report, Chu Jianguo and Director Zhang were furious. This was utterly lawless.
"Militia Captain, I am Chu Jianguo, the director of the County Revolutionary Committee. We have received a report that Hao Wanlin's house contains the Four Olds. Now, follow the young revolutionaries to search the house."
Chu Jianguo's words made Hao Wanlin sweat profusely and his face turn pale.
They can act shamelessly and throw tantrums when dealing with the police, but the Revolutionary Committee—is that a place where they can run rampant?
Why did the Revolutionary Committee get involved? Why are they meddling in these other people's business?
Hao Wanlin couldn't understand why the Revolutionary Committee, which was supposed to be busy confiscating property, cracking down on speculation, and handling other important matters, had attracted the attention of the Revolutionary Committee to his place, which offered no financial gain.
"Take Captain Hao to the car and back to the station for questioning."
Chu Jianguo led his men to rescue the female educated youth, Director Zhang took control of Hao Wanlin, and the injured educated youth were also loaded onto trucks.
"Officer Zhang, what have I done wrong that you're taking me away?"
"The educated youth settlement has been robbed. As the team leader, aren't you supposed to go back and assist with the investigation?"
Hao Wanlin thought to himself, "It's over. If this is classified as a crime, they're all finished." He knew a little about criminal punishment, unlike the other villagers who were fearless in their ignorance.
