Chapter 111 The Secret of Zhao Jiuxiang

The two soldiers took Zhao Jiuxiang to the interrogation room and left.

The charcoal basin was lit in the interrogation room, and the temperature was higher than that in the detention room. The urine smell on Zhao Jiuxiang became stronger.

Zhao Jiuxiang wanted to get closer to Lu Changzheng, but when he smelled the urine on his body, he smiled awkwardly and silently stepped back a few steps.

Lu Changzheng pointed to the interrogation chair and said to Zhao Jiuxiang, "Auntie, sit down."

After Zhao Jiuxiang sat down, she raised her handcuffed hands with a wry smile and said, "Uncle San, can these handcuffs be removed? I'm really not a spy."

Lu Changzheng did not answer, but said, "Tell me, auntie, what do you want to tell me?"

Zhao Jiuxiang coughed awkwardly and said in a low voice, "I went to Lao Shitou's house that night."

"Oh, what did you do there?" Lu Changzheng took out a notebook and began to record.

Zhao Jiuxiang hesitated, not knowing how to start. Seeing Lu Changzheng writing, she became anxious: "Uncle San, please stop writing. I'm just telling you, I'm not a spy."

Lu Changzheng didn't stop writing, and said lightly: "What did you do at Lao Shitou's house? Stealing? Or having an affair?"

Zhao Jiuxiang began to feel uneasy, as if she had done something wrong. She

shouldn't have thought that just because his uncle San was a relative, he would consider their relationship and cover up for her. Judging from his look, he might want to kill his own relative for the sake of justice.

Zhao Jiuxiang kept silent again.

Lu Changzheng looked up at her, and seeing that she was silent again, he said, "Auntie, if you don't want to talk, I'll ask someone to find Lao Shitou, or your uncle or Fubao to talk."

Fubao is Zhao Jiuxiang's son.

Zhao Jiuxiang gave birth to five daughters before she had this one son. She treated him like a baby since he was young and spoiled him.

As expected, when Fubao was mentioned, Zhao Jiuxiang got anxious.

"Uncle, you can't do this. We are relatives. If this gets out, my family will be in trouble and your family will lose face."

Lu Changzheng sneered. Since they had separated, how could it affect his family? At most, his second brother would be embarrassed. But he had to bear the consequences of marrying a wife, whether good or bad.

"Auntie, if you tell the truth, I won't look for anyone. If you haven't committed any crime, I can ask someone to keep it a secret for you."

Seeing that Lu Changzheng was going to arrest someone immediately if she didn't speak, Zhao Jiuxiang said in a mosquito-like voice: "No, I didn't steal anything. I just went to his house to chat for a while."

But going to chat in the middle of the night, anyone could guess what they were doing.

No wonder they didn't dare to say it. Now the work style problems are dealt with severely. In rural terms, this is adultery, and they will be arrested, shaved, criticized and paraded.

If this kind of thing was discovered in normal times, the brigade would handle it privately, and it would not be impossible not to report it.

But it happened to be a special period for catching spies, so it was not easy to hide it. As for how to deal with it, it depends on the intention of the commune cadres.

Lu Changzheng guessed that this matter would most likely be suppressed and the brigade would handle it on its own.

The county had spent a lot of effort to invite so many news media to come, they must want to show off their achievements, they would not let this matter tarnish

the reputation of the advanced brigade. Therefore, he was not worried that the Lujiacun Brigade would lose its title of advanced brigade because of this incident.

Lu Changzheng did not continue to ask, but went out to have someone take Zhao Jiuxiang back to the detention room, and then asked someone to bring Lao Shitou.

He would not only believe Zhao Jiuxiang's one-sided words, everything must be based on evidence, and the confessions of both parties must match.

*****

Lao Shitou has been worried since Zhao Jiuxiang was arrested.

He is a widower. His wife and son died of illness a few years ago. His two daughters also got married a long time ago. Now he is the only one at home.

When he heard the police say they would take him to the police station for questioning, he was so scared that he almost paralyzed. When he arrived at the police station, he didn't need to be asked any questions. He just poured out everything.

Although it is said that the village is big and there are bound to be some dirty things, everyone's world view is still shocked.

This old stone and Lu Guihua's father Lu Yougen were good friends and often visited his home. Zhao Jiuxiang was indeed not bad when he was young, and as time went by, Old Stone started to have ideas.

Seeing that Lu Guihua only had daughters, Old Stone instigated Lu Yougen to come up with the idea of ​​borrowing seeds. At that time, Lu Yougen had given birth to five daughters, so he couldn't hold his head up in the village and had no heroic spirit. After being persuaded by Lao Shitou, he agreed.

He also thought that it was better to give benefits to his brothers than to others, so he asked Lao Shitou to come.

Zhao Jiuxiang couldn't hold her head up in front of her husband because she gave birth to only daughters, so naturally he had to do whatever he said.

As a result, I don't know if it was luck or something, but she really gave birth to a son.

Now, all three of them were happy.

Lu Yougen had a son and had face; Zhao Jiuxiang had a son and had confidence; Lao Shitou's dream came true, and he had another son who he didn't have to raise.

At first, they still lived their own lives.

Later, Lao Shitou's wife and son died of illness one after another, so Lao Shitou put all his focus on Fubao. He would give Fubao any delicious food, and the two families gradually became close.

Zhao Jiuxiang and Lao Shitou also slowly developed feelings for each other. It was a difficult time at that time, and Lu Yougen was happy to have someone to help raise his son, so he turned a blind eye and sometimes covered up for them.

It was also because of Lu Yougen's tacit approval that Zhao Jiuxiang and Lao Shitou were not discovered for so many years.

Or maybe someone discovered it, but the person who discovered it was kind and didn't tell anyone. If it weren't for the spies caught this time, it is estimated that this matter would not have been exposed.

After hearing this, everyone was shocked that there are still such cuckolds in the world. There are

really all kinds of birds in the forest.

After the interrogation, Lao Shitou was also taken to the interrogation room, which happened to be the same one as Zhao Jiuxiang.

Zhao Jiuxiang was also surprised when she saw Lao Shitou, "Why did they arrest you?" Didn't they not arrest you if she confessed?

Suddenly, Zhao Jiuxiang thought of something and asked in horror, "Did you tell everything? Did you tell them about Fubao?"

"Didn't you tell them first? If you didn't tell them, how could they arrest me?" Lao Shitou was panicking.

Zhao Jiuxiang raised his hands and beat Lao Shitou, crying as he beat him, "I only told them about going to your house that night, but not about Fubao. You idiot, if you tell them about this, how can Fubao live in the brigade in the future?"

Her Fubao will be stabbed in the back in the future.

Zhao Jiuxiang cried very sadly. She thought that at most she would admit to being an adulterer and be sent to a farm for labor reform. Then she would let Fubao break off all ties with her and take the lead in criticizing her. In the future, she could get sympathy and live a good life in the team. Now

that this old man has said everything, Fubao's background is not good, and she will be drowned in spit in the future.

Her Fubao has never suffered since childhood, how could he not bear this. The

more Zhao Jiuxiang thought about it, the sadder she became. She pounded the old stone without any mercy, and at the same time she hated the Long March.

They are all relatives, it would be fine if he didn't help, but he hurt her like this!
