"You said before that it was your uncle who supported you in harming people, and your uncle also questioned Teacher Ji Xia. Which country are you spies from?" Wei Zhenguo's voice was loud and resounding, and he seemed very angry.
Ji Xia smiled bitterly, "I never dreamed that Leader Zhou would actually accuse me of treason. Fortunately, this is a new society and Leader Zhou's words are not imperial decrees. Otherwise, I would face the fate of having my entire clan executed.
All my life, I have only wanted to serve my country. I have always been loyal to my country. Now I am being accused of treason. How can I bear it!"
Ji Xia's eyes turned red as she spoke. Standing in front of her were police officers, leaders from various counties and cities along the high-speed rail line who came for the project, and reporters. Everyone felt sorry for Ji Xia at this moment.
"We believe you, Teacher Ji Xia!" The reporter from the Beijing Daily waved his fist. "Anyone who slanders you is a class enemy!"
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and cheered.
Ji Xia took a deep breath. "Thank you, thank you everyone! I can endure all other humiliations and personal attacks against me, but I cannot tolerate anyone accusing me of treason. Today, I implore everyone, I implore the police, to investigate me. I want to be cleared of all charges!"
Before this, I will suspend all work to avoid suspicion. Of course, if there is an urgent matter that needs my attention, I will do my best. I hope everyone can understand my helplessness!
After saying that, she asked the police if there was anything else. If not, she would go back first.
There was a lot of noise here, so the Qin family naturally knew about it. Qin Xiao drove here, but couldn't get in at the entrance of the alley to the police station. He had to get out of the car and squeezed in with great difficulty.
Hearing Ji Xia's words, he was also very angry.
Ji Xia walked outside and saw Qin Xiao, who pulled her over and held her in his arms.
Qin Xiao's handsome face turned dark and looked very fierce.
"Go back and have a good rest." Qin Xiao almost said that they should not care about these trivial matters anymore. This country does not belong to one person. After paying so much, it was slandered like this in the end. Who would feel comfortable?
But he understood Ji Xia's thoughts too well. She had experienced two eras and hoped more than anyone else that the country would become strong and no longer be looked down upon. Who wouldn't want to feel like truly standing up and being looked up to by others?
Not to mention anything else, without Ji Xia, there would be no victory in this battle with the United States. The feeling of superiority of being much stronger than the opponent is really fascinating.
When he was reviewing the game at the military headquarters, he felt very regretful that it was not his team that encountered the United States. If it were him, he could have wiped out the entire US army.
Although, the American regiment was almost completely wiped out.
"Yeah!" Ji Xia responded softly and was protected by Qin Xiao as she walked out. She was petite and had a calm expression, with only a hint of sadness between her brows.
In people's eyes, she was so delicate and so devoted, but in the end she was slandered like this.
Do the Zhou uncle and nephew still have a conscience?
"We report Zhou Laoer and Zhou Xingjun. We jointly report them with our real names!"
"Yes, we are calling on everyone to report the Zhou uncle and nephew. If they dare to report Ji Xia, we will report them too!"
"Resolutely protect Comrade Ji Xia. She has committed no treason. No one will be allowed to slander her!"
…
There was warmth in Ji Xia's eyes. The public's eyes were sharp. All the efforts she made were seen and remembered. This heartwarming feeling was really refreshing.
That night, back home, Mr. Qin comforted Ji Xia, "Don't worry, the leaders all know what kind of person you are. However, today's matter was handled very well, and this kind of thing cannot be let go lightly;
When the opponent is about to bite you, you must strike faster, harder, and more accurately."
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Ji Xia said obediently.
Old Master Qin appreciated it very much, and of course he was very protective of his son. "Don't go out to work for the next two days. You can handle anything at home. It's best to give yourself two days off. Take your time. Rome wasn't built in a day."
"Yes, grandpa, I will." Ji Xia said with a smile.
Qin Xiao also heard the hidden meaning in the words, "Grandpa, what do you mean, is there any action?"
"Bing County is planning to open two vocational and technical schools, one of which will be a college. The Ministry of Education has been discussing this for the past couple of days. The higher-ups are taking it very seriously, especially since I heard it was Xia Xia's idea. They've asked the people below to discuss it carefully and see if they can find a way forward."
Old Master Qin stopped there, but Qin Xiao and his wife heard other implications from it.
Although this stage will always pass in history, if it can be shortened by a dozen years, the country can recover a lot of losses.
It is now January 1973, and it is a new beginning.
Everyone has new hope in their hearts.
The next morning, Ji Xia received a call from Bing County. Her cousin Xie Yuemei was leaving Bing County and was coming to Jing City.
Arrived around 3:00 p.m.
There was no news for such a long time that Ji Xia thought she was not coming.
Ji Xia rested at home for a while. In the afternoon, she drove to the train station to pick up Xie Yuemei.
Xie Yuemei was not tall and was carrying two backpacks of the same size as her. She was completely buried in the backpacks and moved slowly forward with the crowd getting off the bus.
Ji Xia bought a platform ticket to pick someone up, and when he saw her, he hurried over, "Sister Yuemei!"
When Xie Yuemei saw Ji Xia, she was stunned for a moment before she compared the plump and elegant woman in front of her with the Ji Xia in her memory, and she felt that there was a huge difference.
"Xia Xia?"
"It's me, Sister Yuemei, don't you recognize me?" Ji Xia tried to take the backpack from her back.
