Chapter 1081: No Matter What the Means 2
After the problem of Feng Shuan was solved, the commune office returned to its former leisurely state.
Chen Xingguo and Secretary Zheng were sitting opposite each other drinking tea and reading newspapers. When they heard Wang Lingzhi's accusation, the latter spat out a mouthful of tea, which splashed onto the newspaper that was dated a few days ago but had just been delivered to them. The water stain dissolved the ink.
"What did you say?" Secretary Zheng asked while coughing.
Report the Lu family? Is this the Lu family he imagined?
Wang Lingzhi repeated her words, saying righteously: "Lu Zhiyuan of Wanglou Brigade is a big landlord who exploited the blood and sweat of the working people. Fortunately, the leaders are wise and have overthrown local tyrants and evil gentry like him, liberating the working people of the whole village! Now the movement is being carried out vigorously in various places, but our Wanglou Brigade is turning a deaf ear to it. Because Lu Zhiyuan married his son to the niece of the brigade leader, the brigade leader protected their family and prevented people from fighting against them!"
The weather was hot, and Wang Lingzhi was a little thirsty after walking all the way. She spoke a long string of words, but she couldn't finish them in one breath. She paused, glanced at the enamel pot on the table, swallowed a few times, and continued: "The Lu family has not changed their corrupt practice of ordering servants around. A few years ago, they specially adopted two children. Since they came to their family, they are like cattle, horses, and mules. They have to do all the dirty and tiring work!"
Chen Xingguo and Secretary Zheng knew the details of the Lu family and understood as soon as they heard it. The children Wang Lingzhi mentioned should be Guancheng and Guanyu. They adopted two children during the famine, so how could it become a sin in the mouth of this girl?
During those years, there were countless famine victims everywhere, and people even exchanged their own children for cannibalism. People who adopted children were simply like Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Secretary Zheng thought of this and asked Wang Lingzhi with great interest, "What's your name? What are the names of the two children you mentioned? How did the Lu family order them around? How did they treat him like a slave? Tell me about it."
Chen Xingguo glared at Secretary Zheng. This guy is really bored!
Wang Lingzhi answered the names of her and Guan Cheng brothers truthfully, and then said: "The Lu family has squeezed Guan Cheng to the point of being in a mess. You should go and rescue him! All the work points and rations he and Guan Yu earn belong to the Lu family. He has to go to work every day, go home to cook at mealtime, and do laundry at night. The people of the Lu family are simply Zhou Ba Pi. Now they don't allow Guan Cheng to get married, worried that Guan Cheng will only care about his own small family after marriage, and their family will lose a hardworking laborer!"
"Get married? That's not right. It doesn't make sense. If Guan Cheng gets married, and the family doesn't split up, wouldn't the Lu family have an additional labor force? Why do you say it's about worrying about losing a labor force?" Secretary Zheng hit the nail on the head.
Wang Lingzhi said confidently: "My family wants to recruit Guan Cheng as a live-in son-in-law and give him a warm home, but the Lu family disagrees!"
Chen Xingguo said suddenly: "The Lu family doesn't want their child to be a son-in-law, so you come here to report the Lu family out of thin air? Do you know what it means to frame someone?"
"Who said I framed them? I was telling the truth! If you don't believe me, you can go check it out!" Anyway, it has come to this point, and she will not give up until she achieves her goal. Wang Lingzhi then said, "Guan Cheng and I are in a free love relationship. We have already decided to spend our lives together. I am already his, and he has agreed to live in our house. It is the Lu family who is causing trouble and preventing us from becoming revolutionary comrades!"
