After Lin Qingqing had eaten and drunk her fill, she rode her tricycle to set up her stall with great energy. Xue Guixiang tried to persuade her for a long time but to no avail.
After recovering from his illness, Zhou Zhuo remembered a few things. The first one was the scandal between Lin Qingqing and the old widower. He naturally didn't believe that Lin Qingqing was that kind of woman, but why were they caught cheating that night?
The second thing was that he was knocked unconscious by someone. That night, his mother asked him to go to the wheat field to carry firewood. No one knew about it in advance. How could he be hit by someone? Did the person who hit him recognize the wrong person, or did he do it on purpose?
The first and second events happened only one day apart. Is there any connection between the two events?
In order to get to the bottom of this matter, he had to start with the only person involved, the old widower.
He did this to clear the stain on Lin Qingqing. Although he didn't care about her reputation, the villagers were gossiping about her, and he didn't want his wife to bear this blame for the rest of her life.
In order not to make Lin Qingqing worry, Zhou Zhuocha hid this matter from her. He rode his bicycle back to the village and first went to find Huangmao. Huangmao had a good relationship with his second uncle. After his second uncle went to Shijiazhuang, he gave him the tape recorder repair business. The boy is now doing well with this skill.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at Huangmao's house, he saw his second uncle's fancy motorcycle parked there. Several people were circling the motorcycle. Zhou Xilai gave them a circle of cigarettes, and everyone had a cigarette stuck in their ears.
Zhou Zhuo arrived, got off his bike, and greeted them. Huang Mao saw that he looked like a normal person and asked in surprise, "Zhou Zhuo, are you well?"
"Okay, I came back this time to investigate something, and I'd like to ask a few uncles for help."
Because they are Zhou Xilai's brothers, Zhou Zhuo also calls them uncles. In fact, they are only a few years older than Zhou Zhuo.
Seeing that Zhou Zhuo seemed to have something serious to do, Huangmao asked him to come into the house to talk.
There were tape recorder parts everywhere in Huangmao's house, so many that there was not even a space to put one's feet. He kicked out a path with his feet so that everyone could find a place to sit down.
Everyone knows that Huangmao is a bachelor, and no one cares.
Zhou Zhuo told everyone what he was going to do. The people present were all Zhou Xilai's close brothers. When they heard that Zhou Zhuo wanted to investigate the old widower, they all rubbed their hands and expressed their willingness to help.
"Whether to remove the arm or the leg, nephew, just say something!"
Zhou Xilai took a long drag on his cigarette. As someone who had been in prison, he knew that removing arms and legs was illegal and disapproved of it. He crushed the cigarette butt under his feet a few times and said, "Removing arms and legs would cost our brothers their futures. This old thing isn't worth that much."
Zhou Zhuo also thought so, it would be best not to use force.
Huang Mao always squinted his eyes because he was afraid of the sun. It would sting if he opened his eyes. A poisonous light shot out from the slits of his small eyes: "I have a way to make him tell the truth."
Several people gathered around when they heard this. Huangmao asked Zhou Zhuo to go away, saying that he was a civilized person and should not listen to such vulgar words. Zhou Zhuo had no choice but to stay away.
Several people surrounded Huangmao and whispered to each other for a while before bursting into laughter: "Brother Huangmao, you still have so many ideas!"
"Let's go, let's do it!"
"Go get that bastard!"
Several people went out together with lewd smiles, and Zhou Zhuo followed closely behind. It was a bit cloudy today, with wind and low temperature. There were almost no people wandering around in the village, and they met no one along the way.
Soon they arrived. The old widower was called Wang Laochou, a well-known lazy and scoundrel in Zhoujiazhuang.
