Given Ruan Miaomiao's vengeful nature, the Zhou family was naturally not allowed to enter.
Listening to the hustle and bustle of the village, and thinking that none of this had anything to do with them, the faces of Accountant Zhou and his family were as gloomy as the sky about to snow.
With a pipe dangling from his lips, Accountant Zhou braved the wind and snow as he headed toward the commune.
Halfway there, remembering what he wanted to say, he turned around and headed towards the county town.
The snow fell softly and gently, and Accountant Zhou's figure gradually disappeared at the edge of the village...
His hair was soaked by the falling snow, and Accountant Zhou's coat was covered with a thick layer of snow.
However, Accountant Zhou did not feel cold at all.
Because he saw the Revolutionary Committee's signboard.
"Comrade, I want to report Zhou Jingyun from our production team for speculation and profiteering, involving several thousand yuan."
? ? ?
"What?"
"What did you say?"
Say it again!
...
Hearing Accountant Zhou's words, the red armband-wearing women who were warming themselves around the honeycomb briquette stove were extremely excited:
This person gets sales delivered to their doorstep just by being in the office?
With several thousand yuan involved, they must have made a lot of money off the scheme, right?
When Accountant Zhou saw the excited look on the faces of the red-armband-wearing staff, he knew for sure that he had come to the right place.
Zhou Jingyun, you're the one who offended me, don't blame me for being ruthless!
He took a deep breath, put on the appearance of an honest man, and told the red-armband-wearing men about how Zhou Jingyun had accepted money to help with the work.
The prices quoted by Accountant Zhou were all fair market prices, as the red-armband members overheard.
However, if we also consider the benefits that Zhou Jingyun and other operators receive, this amount of money is far from enough.
The only explanation is that Zhou Jingyun's help in operating the system was likely done by a temporary worker.
However, this price is excessively high for temporary workers.
Everyone criticizes the Revolutionary Committee for being ruthless, but now they've found someone even more ruthless than them!
Calming his excited heart, a man in a red armband asked Accountant Zhou, "Can you guarantee that everything you're saying is true?"
You should know that our Revolutionary Committee doesn't like being used as a tool by others!
The man's face revealed a sinister and vicious expression. Since the establishment of the Revolutionary Committee, many people have used them to settle personal scores.
It would have been fine before, but now, many places have already redressed some wrongful convictions, and the prestige of their Revolutionary Committees has been challenged. It's uncertain whether the Revolutionary Committees will continue to exist in the future.
Therefore, when they go on missions, they must be well-prepared to avoid giving anyone a handle to use against them later.
Of course, it's natural to have this kind of mindset—to be cautious and prepared for potential dangers even in times of peace.
There are also those who are bold and reckless, thinking that while they still have some power, they should try to make as much money as possible.
When questioned by the red armband, Accountant Zhou felt a little guilty: after all, he was only guessing and did not have any concrete evidence.
But now that we've come this far, if we don't grit our teeth and keep talking, we can't expect any good results.
He continued to feign his honesty: "Of course it's true. The villagers in Jianshan Production Team all know it, and those in other production teams who have frequented the area have also heard about it. You can ask anyone you meet."
Upon hearing this, the red armband-wearing members felt it was most likely true.
He was instantly furious: Were they too lazy? How could they let such a big thing happen right under their noses?
If this gets out, how will the revolutionary committees in other counties view them?
Feeling provoked, the red-armband-wearing officer wanted to immediately go to the Jianshan Brigade to arrest the person.
However, the sky outside darkened heavily, and it looked like a blizzard was about to break out.
There was nothing they could do but wait for the blizzard to pass before setting off again.
However, to my surprise, this wait lasted until the next day...
******
In Jianshan Production Team, Zhao Xiuyun dragged her battered and bruised body and limped home.
When she got home, her body was already blue from the cold, and her hands and feet were so stiff that they seemed not to belong to her.
Meanwhile, Zhou Weijie and Erlaizi, who had beaten her up, had already started a fire with the firewood she had collected to keep warm.
The warm indoor space and the cold snow outside were like two different worlds, just like her and Ruan Miaomiao's situation!
Concealing the hatred in her heart, Zhao Xiuyun forced herself to smile and spoke to Zhou Weijie:
"Brother Weijie, Brother Bao'er, don't be angry."
It's not worth getting angry over someone as arrogant and conceited as Ruan Miaomiao.
She doesn't accept our gifts, so we just eat good food at home.
"Later, I'll heat up some wine for you, and also boil some of the peanuts I stole last time. You can eat them with your wine, and it'll also be a way to celebrate your relationship. What do you think?"
Upon hearing Zhao Xiuyun's words, Zhou Weijie and Erlaizi exchanged a glance.
He then burst out laughing and began to hurl insults at Zhao Xiuyun without any restraint:
"Oh, Zhao Xiuyun, I called you a slut before, and you wouldn't admit it. Look at you, aren't you just a slut to the core? Even though I beat you up so badly, you still have the nerve to come back and beg to serve me!"
"Hey, Zhao Xiuyun, I've already stolen your man, how can you still be so cowardly? Not only did you not make a scene, you even came to serve me. I've never seen such a shameless person before!"
"Hey, Erlaizi, from what you just said, Zhao Xiuyun didn't make a fuss with you, and you seemed quite disappointed?"
