Shen Annian planned to wait and see what they wanted to do.
Who knew that Li Qingmin came over and took the initiative to talk to her.
"Comrade Shen, this is our Third Uncle, the elder of Hulu Village. He is the most senior in Hulu Village, and everyone respects him very much."
Shen An Nian has been here for quite some time and knows that the clan concept here is quite strong, and the elderly with high seniority are highly respected.
But what she couldn't understand was why Li Qingmin specifically emphasized this to her.
What does this have to do with her?
Li Qingmin saw her expression, sighed, and said, "Third Uncle is Li Lele's great-grandfather. This time, Li Lele and her daughter were arrested, and Third Uncle was very anxious."
Shen Annian saw the sorrow on his face and immediately understood.
It turned out that they were not looking for Aunt Zhang, but for themselves.
"Are you here to see me?"
Li Qingmin sighed again, "When the Ying Kingdom attacked us, my third uncle had two sons and one daughter who joined the army, and they all died outside.
The third uncle originally had eight children, but in the end only one son and one daughter were left. Li Lele's father was the one who stayed with the third uncle the longest.
A few years ago, my third uncle passed away, and Lele's father also passed away... Please be understanding about this matter."
Shen Annian was silent for a long time. The family members of the martyrs, the elderly with a very high generation, had a very high status in the village.
If she doesn't handle it well, she will offend the whole village.
She looked at her third uncle, then at Aunt Zhang, and perhaps she would even implicate Aunt Zhang.
She is not from Hulu Village, but Aunt Zhang is.
The village's rules and regulations also constrain them.
Third Uncle seemed to notice her gaze and looked over here.
His eyes were cloudy, but he seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
Shen An Nian didn't intend to beat around the bush with him and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
"I heard that you sent Lele and her mother to the police station?
They were wrong in what they did. You can beat them or scold them as much as you want, as long as they are released. I will do whatever you want."
"Third Uncle, I'm not the victim, so what I say doesn't count."
When Third Uncle heard this, he squinted his eyes at her and asked, "You don't want to help?"
“It’s not that I don’t want to help, it’s just that I have no say.
Either go to the army to find Captain Zhou, or go to the police station.
It's really no use for you to come to me, someone who has nothing to do with this matter."
Li Qingmin looked at Shen Annian, wanting to speak but stopping himself.
Can you please be more tactful when speaking? Older people really can't stand such great stimulation.
Shen Annian ignored his gaze.
She would be stupid to agree to it.
They didn't dare to cause trouble at the army or the police station, so they came to me.
She is not a soft persimmon that can be easily bullied.
The third uncle's anger suddenly flared up. "Several of my children joined the revolution and died outside. Do you still want my granddaughter's life now?"
Shen An Nian said calmly: “Third Uncle, what you said not only praised Li Lele, but also belittled several martyrs.
Those martyrs sacrificed their lives to defend the mountains and rivers of our motherland. They are heroes and deserve our commemoration.
Why can Li Lele and her daughter be compared with them?
It is such a terrible thing that this mother and daughter spread rumors and tried to slander our soldiers.
I dare not say whether their audacity is the result of your long-term indulgence, but if you force them to be released this time, they will become even more daring in the future.
Why should your sons and daughters join the revolution and drive out those invaders?
Is it so that today you can use your status as a clan elder to force others to agree to these unfair things?
Their blood and sacrifice were for the people to be the masters of their own destiny, for the people to rise up and become masters of their own destiny, not for you to use your seniority as a pretext to oppress the people and make them obey you in everything.
Third Uncle was so angry that his whole body was shaking. Li Qingmin was really afraid that he would suffocate, so he hurriedly patted his back to help him calm down.
"Third uncle, calm down, calm down."
Seeing his uncle panting heavily, Shen An Nian continued, "Li Lele went to the army to harass people, and her mother went to the army without knowing the truth.
You only care about your own family affairs. Have you ever thought about how much impact this incident has on Captain Zhou?
If you had been willing to restrain them more, they wouldn't have done such a thing.
When something like this happened, you didn't think about how to set them right. Instead, you thought about using your status to oppress me and make me do what you want. This shows that you are not a reasonable person.
"Your styles are exactly the same. One relies on public pressure to achieve his own goals, while the other feels respected and wants to use his status to achieve his goals. You are indeed a family."
Li Qingmin saw that his uncle's face was very ugly. He was really afraid that he would pout, so he said to Shen Annian: "Comrade Shen, please stop talking."
If we continue talking like this, Third Uncle really won’t be able to hold on any longer.
Shen An Nian shrugged. For his sake, she could keep silent.
But this does not mean that she approves of her third uncle's way of doing things by relying on his seniority.
Li Qingmin: "Third Uncle, we will take you back."
Seeing that Shen Annian was young, the third uncle thought she was a young girl and was embarrassed to refuse his request.
But I didn't expect her to be so ruthless. I was so angry that smoke was about to come out of my head.
But he also knew that apart from using his status to pressure her, he really had no other way.
