Seeing Zhou Jingyun being taken away by the Revolutionary Committee, Zhao Cuihong fainted. Ruan Miaomiao, who had originally wanted to go with the Revolutionary Committee to see if she could help, had no choice but to take Zhou Taohua with her to the commune health center.
"Tiezhu, you take some men and follow behind the Revolutionary Committee to make sure they don't dare to touch a hair on Brother Yun's head. Ruan Zhiqing and I will take the old lady to the commune and call Brother Zhang to let him be prepared and wait at the entrance of the Revolutionary Committee in the county town."
Seeing the chaotic state of the Zhou family courtyard, Gou Dan gave a swift and decisive order.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone quickly got to work.
Zhou Tiezhu led more than thirty men from the village, carrying sticks and other weapons, following behind the Revolutionary Committee.
Gou Dan then took Zhao Cuihong and Ruan Miaomiao, who was with Zhou Taohua and Zhou Dujuan, on a bicycle and headed towards the commune.
When they arrived at the entrance of the commune hospital, Ruan Miaomiao said to Gou Dan, who was about to leave, "Gou Dan, if you can't solve this, come and tell me. My family has strong connections. Don't let A Yun suffer in there."
"Okay, Ruan Zhiqing!"
Hearing Ruan Miaomiao's words, Gou Dan felt a slight lump in his throat: he had always thought that Brother Yun was too eager to please Ruan Zhiqing and that dating was pointless.
However, seeing Ruan Zhiqing like this, Gou Dan suddenly also wanted to have a partner who would stay by his side through thick and thin.
In Jianshan Brigade, Accountant Zhou hid in the crowd and watched as Zhou Jingyun was taken away by the Revolutionary Committee. He was overjoyed: Zhou Jingyun, Zhou Jingyun, didn't you think you were so great that you dared to embarrass me in front of the whole village?
I want to see what you are in the face of absolute power!
If you get into the Revolutionary Committee, you'll be half dead, if not dead!
Thinking of Zhou Jingyun's miserable state, Accountant Zhou's lips curled into a smug smile.
When the Zhou family saw Accountant Zhou's smile, they felt a chill: Could it be that their father did this?
He Damei pulled the man aside and asked in a low voice, "Husband, tell me honestly, where did you go last night?"
When Accountant Zhou returned, he vaguely said that he had been staying at his parents' place, but He Damei found that hard to believe.
After all, her parents-in-law and the rest of the family lived in the village. It made no sense for Accountant Zhou to stay there at night without informing her beforehand.
Looking at the silent, smug man, He Damei asked anxiously, "Honey, you didn't go to the county town last night, did you?"
Upon hearing this, Accountant Zhou reacted as if he had been stepped on, and he cursed fiercely: "What nonsense are you spouting, you old hag?"
How could I possibly be going to the county town?
However, after all, they had been married for many years, and He Damei could tell at a glance that the man was guilty.
She panicked: it must have been a man who reported Zhou Jingyun.
This must not be told to anyone!
After all, stabbing someone in the back is not something to be proud of.
Moreover, Zhou Jingyun's matter involves the jobs of many people in the village. If people find out that it was her husband who reported her, the future of her family in the village is unimaginable.
He Damei, who understood this principle, decided to keep the matter to herself and was even thinking about how to cover it up for Accountant Zhou...
At the educated youth settlement, Shen Qingming, who was woken up by hunger while lying in bed, was overjoyed to hear that Zhou Jingyun had actually been arrested for speculation and profiteering!
Now that Zhou Jingyun has been arrested, does that mean I have hope?
He quickly got up, put on his best clothes, and prepared to win back Ruan Miaomiao's heart...
******
In the county town, the Revolutionary Committee looked at the large group of villagers from Jianshan Brigade following behind them and felt somewhat displeased: It was unexpected that this Zhou Jingyun was such a tough guy, able to get so many villagers to help him stand up for him.
They didn't even consider that if Zhou Jingyun were really labeled as a speculator, those jobs he introduced would definitely be gone. Why would the villagers give up the good jobs they had worked so hard to get?
Therefore, it's more accurate to say that the villagers were protecting those jobs rather than Zhou Jingyun.
The longer the people behind him followed, the deeper their dislike for Zhou Jingyun grew.
When they saw the Revolutionary Committee office building in the distance, the members of the Revolutionary Committee secretly gloated: "Hmph, once we get into the Revolutionary Committee, there will be no one we can't pry open."
But why do I see Director Zhang from the county's Public Security Bureau in the distance?
The head of the Revolutionary Committee stepped forward and greeted Director Zhang warmly: "Director Zhang, what brings you here?"
However, Director Zhang, who was being stared at so attentively, ignored him and walked straight to Zhou Jingyun, who was surrounded by them. He reached out and patted the snow off Zhou Jingyun's shoulder, asking with concern:
"You weren't wronged, were you?"
? ? ?
The Revolutionary Committee members were stunned by what they saw: What was going on?
How did Director Zhang of the county public security bureau come to know Zhou Jingyun, a country man?
However, Zhou Jingyun's answer told everyone that they did know each other.
Zhou Jingyun, hands in his pockets, spoke coldly: "I didn't suffer any injustice, I just went for a walk in the dead of winter!"
Upon hearing Zhou Jingyun's answer, Director Zhang's face darkened. He glared at the Revolutionary Committee members before leading Zhou Jingyun inside, saying as he went:
"Secretary Chen was so worried when he heard that you had been slandered that he put aside the ongoing county party committee meeting and had his secretary bring you here first."
Zhou Jingyun recalled that he had only asked Gou Dan to contact Director Zhang, so it was likely that Secretary Chen was notified by Director Zhang.
He quickly said, "Oh, Brother Zhang, it's nothing, I'm sorry to have worried you."
