The meal was over. Lian Xiaomin took the bowl away and went back to the west room to talk to Xue Hongbing.
"Is the Huang family so overbearing in the Xinfeng Village Production Team?"
Xue Hongbing sat on the kang and said, "What can I say? Huang Laosi is very good at pretending on the surface, and he was even rated as an advanced person. But his methods are always used secretly, and you can't find any fault with him."
"I heard that Jia Daming, Huang Laosi's brother-in-law, is an official in the county. He seems to be the second in command of the Jianye County Pigeon Committee and a deputy director."
"...His second son Huang Tian has fallen in love with a female educated youth from Shanghai who is in our educated youth center. Xu Xiaomei is already engaged and has a fiancé, and the man is working in the Sijiaotai next door. Can you agree to that?"
"... Huang Laosi assigned Xu Xiaomei the hardest and most tiring work. Xu Xiaomei really couldn't stand it anymore and even wanted to commit suicide. Later, her fiancé found a way to ask his family to buy a job for his fiancée so that he could transfer her back to the city first."
"…In the end, it was stuck at the Xinfeng Brigade. The brigade leader refused to approve it and it was delayed for two months. During this time, Xu Zhiqing's fiancé got into trouble. He fell off a mountain and broke his leg. It was Huang Tian and his eldest brother Huang Biao who did it secretly while hiding their faces."
Lian Xiaomin frowned and listened quietly.
"The male educated youth from Sijiaotai had no other choice. In order to get his leg treated properly, his family gave the job to his son and transferred him back to Shanghai."
"What about Xu Xiaomei?"
"They said they would get married on New Year's Day, and forced her to marry Huang Tian. Otherwise, she would be the only one left. If she didn't agree, she would be forced into submission by some trickery..."
When Lian Xiaomin heard this, she was so angry that her head hurt. Even though she knew that there were countless such things, she was still very angry.
Xue Hongbing continued to say that he had been working in the countryside for two years, and that he and Li Chuang came at the same time.
They are neighbors in Shanghai and have been friends since childhood.
Therefore, this time when Li Chuang asked him for help, he agreed to help even though he knew he could not offend the Huang family.
In fact, if no one was killed and the matter became so serious, he would not have revealed his involvement.
But later three lives were lost, and the matter became a huge one.
These old police officers from the 1970s were not given the job for nothing. They soon found out that Li Chuang had a good friend, Xue Hongbing, who was also his neighbor from his hometown and was working in the Xinfeng Village.
He immediately went over there to ask Xue Hongbing whether he knew about it, and now his secret was exposed.
It is very difficult for ordinary people to hide in front of the old policeman, and Li Chuang went to find him and someone saw him, so he had to admit it.
Finally, he told the police that he did not participate in the beating, but just brought three people to identify Huang Biao.
It is confirmed that he is the one who ran to Sandaogou and tried to defeat Shen Yuanchao.
The murder case was not his fault, so it was not difficult for the police to help him.
But the people in the Huang family found out about it, and since no one else could find him, they could only vent their anger on Xue Hongbing.
After all, three people in his family had died, and he was so angry that he didn't want to kill him.
You actually secretly brought people from other villages here. No matter what, you are in the same group.
That night, they used some tricks to frame him as a thief who stole grain from the production team and arrested him.
They chatted in detail in the west room for a while. Lian Xiaomin looked at the watch and it was only seven o'clock in the evening.
What should we do with Xue Hongbing?
"What are your plans next?"
She had just asked her two apprentices and Li Chuang this question yesterday, and as soon as she said it, she felt it was quite familiar.
Alas, these unfortunate kids are such a worry.
Unfortunately, Xue Hongbing was a step too late. The three of them had already boarded a train and were running away for a long distance. With his injuries, he probably couldn't catch up with them.
Escaping all the way to Hong Kong is not something that ordinary people can do, and it is full of dangers.
If it weren't for her two disciples who had skills like her, it would not be easy for others to succeed by dragging Li Chuang along.
Lian Xiaomin took a thermos and made him a bowl of brown sugar water.
Thinking deeply, logically, the first choice should be to take Xue Hongbing to find Zhang Shengli.
Uncle Shengli is a very fair and selfless person, and he enjoys prestige in the village. If you tell him the truth about this matter, he will not ignore it.
It would be great if Xue Hongbing could be transferred to the Sandaogou Production Team as an educated youth, so that he could escape from the sea of suffering.
At lunch today, Lin Youshu said that there were three batches of educated youth coming to our Youth League Home in Sandaogou, with a total of 19 people.
Let’s do the math.
Two female educated youth were married off: Shi Weihong and Wang Zhen.
A female educated youth fell to death: Pei Ziqiu.
Two bad guys were arrested: Yu Lei and Ma Yushuang.
There are two more: My family found a way to transfer me back to the city.
Three people committed murder and escaped: Xiao Li, Xiao Shen, Xiao Zhongmin...
A total of "ten comrades" were lost, and many soldiers and generals were killed.
There are only nine people left in the Youth Academy now, but there is plenty of space...
Alas, Lian Xiaomin changed her mind and rejected this idea.
The Huang family is not easy to deal with using normal means. Wouldn't this cause trouble for a good person like Uncle Shengli?
How can we talk about fairness when dealing with sinister and vicious people? Once Zhang Shengli confronts them head-on and is plotted against secretly, there is a chance of mishap.
She felt sorry for her best friend, Brother Sanyong.
There is an old saying that goes, It is easy to meet the King of Hell, but it is difficult to deal with villains.
No, no.
Xue Hongbing noticed that Master Lian was frowning, as if he was trying to find a solution for him, and he was deeply moved.
"Master Lian, I can't cause you any more trouble. Today, I am really desperate. I can only think of the master mentioned by Shen Yuanchao. He said that he is very powerful and has a friendship with Li Chuang..."
"I thought, I should hide for two days, recuperate, and avoid being caught. Then I can find a way to escape."
"I know that there is no way out for me. There are people in the Huang family who have framed me, an educated youth, for stealing grain. I have no way to defend myself. There is no solution!"
"Stealing grain is not a crime punishable by death, but it's hard to say if it falls into the hands of Huang Laosi. He has a hundred ways to kill me... Oh, it would be great if I could run away with Li Chuang and the others! Even if I die, I'd rather die quickly..."
Lian Xiaomin patted his shoulder and said, "Drink some brown sugar water to replenish your blood. Don't talk about whether you will die or not. I tell you, you are lucky to have found me, don't you understand?"
"...I am the famous Master Lian from Sandaogou. Can't I solve your problem? I've been working for nothing. Just be at ease and recuperate here. I'll think of a solution for you."
Xue Hongbing, who was originally frowning, was amused by Lian Xiaomin's deliberate pretentious tone.
He took two sips of the sugar water; it was really sweet.
I thought to myself, I have met a good person, so never mind, let it be whatever it is.
Everything must have been destined. He didn't know why, but he inexplicably believed that the other party was not just comforting him, but really had the ability to help him escape from danger.
"Xue Hongbing, who are your family members? Can you escape and hide your identity like this?"
Here it comes again, it's the familiar question. She asked those three people last night, to see if there is anything she can't let go of at home and whether she can leave.
