Chapter 1085: No Matter What
After leaving the Lu family, Secretary Zheng looked at Wang Zhengguo carrying a kettle and burst out laughing.
"Secretary Zheng, what are you laughing at?" Wang Zhengguo was puzzled. It was normal to bring water and food to the fields for others. The wheat had not been harvested yet, so he had time to go home for lunch. The work would start in two days, so he would have to eat lunch in the fields.
Secretary Zheng smiled and said, "No, there's nothing to laugh at."
Since he didn't want to talk, Wang Zhengguo didn't ask any more questions. He quickly found where Lu Tianzhi and Guan Yu were working, waved the two children over, handed the kettle to Lu Tianzhi, and said to Guan Yu, "Ayu, come with me. I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter? Uncle." Guan Yu wiped the sweat off his face and walked with them to a place farther away from the crowd.
"Here's what happened," Secretary Zheng said gently, "The commune is conducting a survey on the living conditions of adopted children. You and your brother were adopted by the Lu family, right?"
The Lu family and Guancheng did not hide the fact of his adoption from Guan Yu, but they did not mention his family background in front of him.
"The Lu family treats you well?" Secretary Zheng asked.

Guan Yu almost choked on his own saliva and looked at Secretary Zheng in disbelief. "I don't understand what you said. I can't plow the land or pull a cart. How can I be a cow, horse or mule? Exploitation? Oppression? Who exploited me in my uncle and aunt's house? Who oppressed me? Who talked nonsense in front of you? You have to tell me clearly. Don't let my uncle and aunt suffer an unjust accusation."
"I came here to ask you! How can hearsay be as accurate as the words of the person involved?" Secretary Zheng laughed, "When I see your appearance and hear your conversation, I know that what others say to me is bullshit!"
As expected, a villain made false accusations.
Secretary Zheng was surprised at his reaction speed. What a promising talent!
Guan Yu paused while wiping his sweat with a towel, revealing his big white teeth. "Yes, my aunt brought me home when I was very young. It was my aunt who treated my illness, fed me, clothed me, and even gave me a quilt to sleep with. The folks all know about it. What's there to ask? How's my life? I'm fine."
"Of course it's okay. If it wasn't good for me, how could I grow so big and strong?" Guan Yu bent his arms. He was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt. As his arms bent, a large muscle bulged, indicating that he was definitely not a weak boy.
"You have been in the Lu family for so many years. Has the Lu family exploited you? Have they treated you like a beast of burden?"
Guan Yu said seriously: "You can't let this guy who is full of nonsense go! If you don't deal with this rumor maker properly, everyone will follow his example and make up stories everywhere, ruining the image of others, forming a bad atmosphere, and causing great trouble to the kind-hearted people!"
Secretary Zheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. After we investigate the matter, we will definitely send the person who falsely accused others to participate in labor reform!"
"Granduncle is my witness, you must keep your word!" Guan Yu said immediately.
Wang Zhengguo spoke at the right time: "Don't worry, the most proud thing about our Wanglou Brigade is that we have always had a good life style. We will not allow those who slander others and fabricate crimes to go unpunished. Go to work, and remember to go home for dinner when you are done. Your aunt made jelly today and sent a big bowl to your house. Ask your aunt to cut it and mix it with the cold."
Guan Yu laughed all of a sudden, "Xibao must be very happy. He didn't eat enough of the food my aunt brought him last night, so he made a fuss for half the night!"
