That day, Zhang Tiantian, Gu Ranran and others had just finished lunch and were watching TV in the living room. They had not yet gone for a nap.
Lu Jiang and Lu Hai, who were at work, suddenly came back. Seeing their anxious expressions, the captain quickly asked, "Lu Jiang, Lu Hai, weren't you at work? Why are you back? Are you on vacation, or did something happen?"
Lu Hai took the backpack and went straight to the kitchen. Lu Jiang handed the captain the certificate for buying a black and white TV at the county department store.
"Dad, Lu Hai and I had just come out of the state-owned restaurant after dinner when we saw Uncle Liu with a red armband coming towards our team.
Lu Hai and I quickly asked for leave and returned from the small road. We both felt that he had gone to report our family.
Now take out all your valuables, put them in bags, and while the villagers are sleeping, we will hide them in a cave in the mountains.
Everyone, please check your home quickly, fearing someone might be framing you and something that shouldn't be there might be in your home."
Lu Hai put all the white flour, rice, bacon, brown sugar and fresh meat from the kitchen in the backpack.
Lu Jiang also put White Rabbit milk candy, egg cakes, canned food, Maotai, Daqianmen, tea, cotton and wool in the backpack.
The others went back to their rooms to pack up. Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran didn't find anything in the living room, so they moved to the yard.
Zhang Tiantian found a fertilizer bag in a corner of the yard. When she opened it, she discovered two banned books inside.
Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran looked at each other and found that there was no one else, so Zhang Tiantian quickly put it into the space.
Gu Ranran quickly called the system in her mind.
"System, quickly scan it. Are there any other things in our house that shouldn't be there? Someone has reported us and is trying to frame us."
"Ran Ran, there are two gold bars hidden in the cracks of the stone under the gate of the courtyard."
Gu Ranran opened the door and squatted down to check. Sure enough, she saw two gold bars wrapped in newspaper. Gu Ranran quickly put them into the space.
"System, is there anything else?"
"Ran Ran, no more."
"System, who is this Mr. Liu? Is there any conflict between him and our family?"
“Tiantian, although Uncle Liu is older than you, he is about the same age as your father.
When the village elections were about to begin, he had already canvassed for votes. He was determined to secure the position of team leader.
But after your father retired from the army, he was sent down directly to be the captain. Your father blocked his way, and he has always been resentful of your father.
I haven't been able to find any evidence against your father, so I have no choice but to frame him.
In the original book, Liu Xiaoli reported your family, your father stepped down, and Uncle Liu became the team leader.
Zhang Tiantian couldn't help but complain: "My dad was the team leader, wasn't that more than ten years ago? Does Uncle Liu really hate me that much? It's been so long, and he still remembers it.
Yesterday, our family bought a black and white TV. I thought he was jealous, but it turns out he wanted to bring my father down.
System, Uncle Liu is really generous in framing our family. Can you scan his house to see if he still has gold?"
"Tiantian, in the secret room of Uncle Liu's house, there is a box of gold, a box of gold and silver jewelry, a box of banned books, and a box of Big Black Ten."
"System, how come there's a darkroom in Uncle Liu's house? And there are so many good things there? What did they do in the past? Is this something passed down from generation to generation?"
"Tiantian, Uncle Liu used to be a servant in the village landlord's house. He took those things during the chaos when the landlord's house was ransacked.
Uncle Liu's father was also a servant in the landlord's family. When the landlord's house was raided, his father was beaten to death on the spot, and that's when he came out to take charge of the family."
Zhang Tiantian took out the fertilizer bag from the space and went back to the living room pretending to be anxious.
Seeing the team leader looking for something in the living room, he handed the fertilizer bag to him and said, "Dad, does Uncle Liu have a conflict with our family? Have you ever offended him? I feel like he threw this fertilizer bag into our yard."
The captain opened the fertilizer bag and looked at the two banned books, dumbfounded. After thinking for a while, he said, "I don't think I have ever offended Uncle Liu. I just heard that when I retired and became the captain, I took his place.
But so many years have passed, he probably doesn't mind it anymore. Besides, he wasn't the team leader at the time; he just wanted to run for election, and his popularity was very high."
"Dad, think about it carefully. Has Uncle Liu ever targeted you while you were working?"
"Tiantian, it's not that he's targeting me, he just likes to contradict me and looks down on me a little. He won't talk to me when he sees me, and he won't leave me alone even if I say hello. When he has to talk to me, he's very harsh."
Lu Jiang came over, took the two banned books, took them directly to the kitchen, threw them into the stove, lit the fire, and burned the two banned books and the fertilizer bag together.
After packing up their things, there were two backpacks left, which Lu Jiang and Lu Hai planned to carry up the mountain. Lu Jiang gave some worried instructions.
"Dad, don't worry. We've checked and there's nothing else in the house. Lu Hai and I will carry the things and put them in the cave on the mountain. We'll go get them back in the evening."
Don't worry, that cave is deep in the mountains, very safe, and usually no one goes there. Lu Hai and I always kept our things in there, and we never lost anything. We also smoked our bacon in there, and it's still there even after a year.
We both came back when it was time to get off work. After all, on the surface, we both went to work in the commune.
Uncle Liu must have taken advantage of the fact that Lu Hai and I were at work before he dared to come to our house with the man wearing a red armband.
