Chapter 45: Living in the Cowshed and Being Criticized
Qin Wan quickly hugged the eldest sister-in-law of the Lu family. The eldest sister-in-law of the Lu family felt as if she had hit a wall. Her arm was in so much pain that she could hardly bear it, but Qin Wan did not move at all.
"You're still pregnant, and if anything happens to me, I can't explain it.
Can anyone of you help me go and ask the captain? This matter must be resolved today. Either you pay them and let them go, or they get out and leave.
You can't let me lose both my money and my life, right? Let's wait for the captain here. If the captain can't handle it well, I will report it to the police."
Qin Wan let go of the eldest sister-in-law of the Lu family and let her stand aside so that everyone could see clearly that she was fine at the moment.
"What do you mean captain? I want to take my son home. No one can interfere with this matter!
You still have the nerve to report to the police. If anyone wants to report, I should report it. I will sue you! Sue you, sue you for trafficking my son!"
Old Mrs. Lu seemed to have thought of a way to fight back. She put her hands on her waist and pointed at Qin Wan and said, Qin Wan picked her ear with her little finger.
"Okay, then you go, so I don't have to make another trip. Go and call him."
At this time, Old Man Lu, who had always pretended to be an honest man and let his wife take the lead in everything, finally couldn't sit still anymore. He walked up to Qin Wan in three or two steps, frowning.
"Qin Zhiqing, you are not a child anymore, and you are still a girl who has not married yet, how can you be so shameless?
You and my son haven't even gotten married yet, but you're so impatient to take my son home. Do you know what you call this?
If it were in the past, this kind of thing would be thrown into a pig cage!" Father Lu put his hands behind his back and looked at Qin Wan with a frown, his face full of disgust, as if he was looking at some garbage.
Hearing what he said, Li Ruolan's eyes suddenly lit up. This was a handle that was delivered to her doorstep, and the heroine must take it.
Sure enough, the heroine is the heroine. Qin Wan suddenly turned pale and looked at Father Lu in horror: “Do you know what you are talking about?
"Pig cage immersion" is a feudal idea. The leaders have said that we must destroy the four olds now! If the Red Guards knew what you said, you would be dragged out for criticism!"
Old Man Lu's originally arrogant expression suddenly turned pale, much paler than Qin Wan's, and his whole body began to tremble.
Qin Wan looked at him with strange eyes, and then glanced at Mrs. Lu and the eldest sister-in-law of the Lu family, who also had ugly faces: "You don't think so too, do you?
How can you think like that? I'm going to report you. You are promoting feudal superstition. Wait for you to be thrown into the cowshed and criticized!"
"You can't go, you can't go! I said the wrong thing, old man! I didn't mean that! You can't go!
Qin Zhiqing, you are the wife of my second son, and I am your father-in-law! You can't hurt me like this. If you hurt me, my second son will not let you go!"
When the old man heard that Qin Wan was going to find the Red Guards to report him, he was so scared that he started yelling without caring about anything.
Qin Wan shook off Old Man Lu's hand: "What old man? Who is my old man? I've already said that Lu Yunxiao sold himself to me as a son-in-law.
Since he has entered my Qin family, he is a member of my Qin family. Don't act like a mother-in-law or father-in-law in front of me!"
"Okay, okay, whatever you say, we'll give you the second one. We don't want it anymore. Don't talk nonsense!" Old Man Lu had participated in many struggle sessions.
At that time, he was the one criticizing others. If the roles were reversed, he would be the one being criticized. When Old Man Lu thought of that scene, his eyes went dark.
Old Mrs. Lu and the eldest sister-in-law of the Lu family did not dare to say a word. Their family could not allow anyone to be criticized, otherwise they would be labeled as the "stinking ninth". Their good family background and eight generations of poor peasants would be ruined.
Qin Wan was unyielding and said, "What do you mean by 'give it to me'? It was clearly me who paid 200 yuan to marry Lu Yunxiao! How can it be given to me?"
Do you think he is a cabbage? You can give it to me just by saying so? You dare to give it to me but I don't dare to ask for it. This is a crime.
Call the captain later. I won’t tell anyone about what happened just now, but we have to resolve Lu Yunxiao’s issue today.
Do you want money or someone? Give me a clear answer. Either give me the money or give me the person. We have to discuss it. Don't come to my house for no reason in the future. I'm tired of it!"
Li Ruolan came over, frowned in disapproval, and spoke in a low voice that everyone present could hear: "Are you stupid? He's already like that, why do you still need him?
You have a home here, you are capable and can earn eight or nine work points a day, so why would you be held back by a cripple?
Listen to me, when the captain comes later, tell him that we want money. Lu Yunxiao will never be able to stand up for the rest of his life, so what do you want him for?
Wouldn't it be a burden to you if you wanted him? Listen to my advice, don't let your heart be blinded by lard, understand?"
Qin Wan glanced at Li Ruolan, with some hesitation on her face, as if she was still thinking. Li Ruolan was so angry that she slapped her.
"Are you really blinded by greed? Okay, okay, you won't listen to me no matter how I advise you. Just expect to live a hard life in the future. I don't care about you anymore!" After saying that, Li Ruolan turned around and was about to leave.
Qin Wan quickly held her back: "Don't be angry, I, I listen to you, isn't that enough? I want money, not the person!"
Li Ruolan then turned around and said, "It's good that you have figured it out. I am doing this for your own good. You can't ruin the rest of your life for someone like this."
Old Mrs. Lu and the eldest sister-in-law of the Lu family listened to the two people mumbling, their eyes kept rolling around and their faces became a little grim.
Old Man Lu really didn't dare to jump around in front of Qin Wan at this moment, and he hid behind the two women tremblingly.
The captain arrived quickly, but he had a gloomy face and looked at Old Lady Lu and the others with a murderous look in his eyes.
After Shen Yi called the team leader over, he thought for a moment and said, "It's freezing outside, why don't we go to the educated youth site and talk things out. Once we've made things clear, there's no need to make a fuss."
The captain still had a dark face and said nothing, but he led the way into the west wing of the educated youth site, which was where Shen Yi and the others lived.
Originally there were five people living in the house, but later Deng Minghao and Xu Tao moved out, so only Shen Yi, Ji Hongjun and Liu Kunming lived in the house temporarily.
Zhou Shengnan and Zheng Fanghua also squeezed in to watch the fun. In the east wing opposite, Li Yingying also climbed up, hesitated for a while, and came in.
The captain sat on the kang, looked around, and finally looked at Old Lady Lu. He said in a deep voice, "Now that everyone is here, tell us what happened just now."
