With the support of her two younger brothers, Qian Niandi was much quieter when she was taken to the man's house. At least she did not resist, which saved everyone a lot of effort.
The Zhan family thought Qian Niandi had accepted her fate, not knowing that she had other thoughts in her mind.
After arriving at the house, the ceremony was carried out according to the normal procedures, and then the banquet began at the order of Zhan Dayou, the powerful village chief.
The reason why that family held a grand banquet was actually to give face to the village chief's family.
After all, he married the granddaughter of the village chief, and his family had made a lot of money with the help of the village chief over the years. They were able to live in a spacious and bright concrete house and live a good life without worries about food and clothing, all thanks to the wise leadership of the village chief.
The village chief said that there would be safer and more profitable ways in the future. In order to continue to make a fortune with the village chief, you must work hard.
Although many families in the village have enough money to spend, it is still difficult for them to cook something delicious on a regular basis. Not to mention that cooking is very troublesome, it is difficult to make delicious food.
Today, thanks to the wedding, we can enjoy more than a dozen delicious dishes without any effort. Everyone will definitely feast on them.
After the meal started, both adults and children were eating with their mouths drooling, enjoying themselves greatly.
Heping's mother also sat at the table, but the other women at the table were eating with relish. They ate one bowl of rice, then another, drank one glass of beer and then another, and their chopsticks hardly stopped picking up the food the whole time.
Heping's mother was in stark contrast to these women. She was absent-mindedly picking up the few dishes in front of her.
Someone asked: "Heping's mother, why don't you eat quickly? Today's meal is not wasted. If you eat less, you will lose a lot..."
Heping's mother said with a bitter face and a rather unpleasant smile, "Hey, watching others get married, do you think I can feel good?
My son Heping should be getting married by now, but he's still locked up. How can I have the energy to eat and drink here? Not to mention that I can't eat today, I haven't had a proper meal since my son got into trouble! "
Her reason was very convincing, and everyone stopped urging her to eat quickly and started talking about other topics.
As for Heping's father, he sat at the same table with the other men in the village, but he didn't eat, just picked up some food and drank alone. Everyone knew his family's current situation, so they all expressed understanding.
After more than an hour of hard work, everyone was full and the medicine gradually began to take effect.
One by one, they began to feel dizzy, their bodies became limp and weak, and they gradually fell asleep.
Zhan Heping's parents were worried that someone might not be fully unconscious yet, which would expose them and lead to retaliation, so they also pretended to be unconscious like everyone else.
After a while, noticing that the house and yard had fallen completely silent, Heping's mother quietly got up and walked to the main door to tell her second son, who was waiting at the door for the feast, "Mom told you about that phone call a few days ago. Go and call it right away. They said that more than half of the villagers have been killed."
Not all families in the village who gave gifts came to the banquet. Some families would only bring one or two people, while some families who gave large gifts or who were not satisfied with taking advantage would bring their entire family together.
However, the person who is the main pillar of the family will definitely appear at the banquet. The rest of the people who did not come are basically the elderly, children, women and children in the family, who do not have much fighting power.
After receiving the letter from his mother, Zhan Heping's younger brother hurried back home to make a phone call.
The investigators were ready to go, and after receiving the news, they immediately headed towards Zhanjiazhuang.
In order to ensure that the operation was foolproof, a number of special police officers were dispatched.
The person who was on guard one kilometer outside the village saw from afar a large convoy heading towards Zhanjiazhuang. He immediately took out his mobile phone to inform the person standing guard at the village entrance. At the same time, he called the village chief's house, but no one answered. He then called other people, but still no one answered.
In the end, the person who called to tip off the convoy had no choice but to surrender when he saw it approaching.
When the people at the checkpoint at the village entrance received his news, one of them immediately rode his bike to the family where the wedding was being held.
But as soon as I entered the yard, I saw people lying all over the yard and the house.
There were also some guests in the yard and house of this family's neighbors, and the situation was the same.
He was completely bewildered, not knowing what was going on. He couldn't find anyone to discuss things with, as almost everyone he could rely on in the village was out of work.
The man suddenly collapsed to the ground and forgot to call the lookouts to inform them of the current situation in the village.
Finally, the people at the village entrance were stunned when they saw a group of well-equipped special police. Those who had originally thought that they could resist for a while when outsiders broke into the village also knew what to do and surrendered obediently. They were handcuffed and thrown into the bed of the large truck behind.
Afterwards, the convoy drove directly into the village and began the village clearance operation.
Some people who did not attend the banquet did not dare to come forward when they saw this scene, and hurried back home and locked the door.
When the police officers arrived at the wedding venue, they were shocked to see people staggering and fainting.
Then, adhering to the principle of eradicating all evil, they threw everyone except children and very elderly people into the car.
Zhan Heping's parents, who were mixed in the crowd, "woke up" from the corner when they saw that the scene was almost cleaned up. They identified themselves to the investigators and told them that almost everyone in the yard, between the ages of 20 and 60, had participated in that kind of activity.
As for the other people in the village, there may be some who have slipped through the net, but they are at most small fry.
The operation was a complete success, with no casualties among the investigators. This experience was enough for them to brag about for a while.
