Chapter 105

The glory of motherhood

"Zhao Donglai, I never thought that the boy has grown up so much." Chen Lina said, pushing Liu Xiaohong behind her, and rubbing the little rascal's head on tiptoe. "Are your father and mother okay?"

Her smile was too kind and maternal. Well, it seems inappropriate to say that a young woman in her twenties is kind and maternal.

A woman who has conquered three naughty boys, what she is best at is to rub the head of this middle school boy and make him let down his guard.

However, this Zhao Donglai is not an ordinary middle school boy. He has been cheating and deceiving people in the mining area for many years and his eyes are very sharp.

So, he glared at Chen Lina coldly and said, "It doesn't matter if you've been in the newspapers, Director Chen. My father and mother are not yours to manage. I'm here for business, so don't touch my hair."

"What's the matter? Tell auntie about it."

She was only six or seven years older than him, and she called herself an aunt. Zhao Donglai put his hands in his trouser pockets and said, "You are too arrogant. You are used to being flattered by the men in the mining area. What? Do you think you are a March 8th Red Flag Bearer or a confidant sister and take advantage of your age? I am here for business, so just do your own thing and leave me alone."

"Mom, look, this is the security team's dispatch record. The matter of Qin Xiaoyu and Wang Fan was reported by Zhao Donglai, and it is recorded here." Nie Weimin suddenly said.

Section Chief Feng picked up Nie Weimin who was holding the record book and said, "Boy, even if your father is a laborer, you can't mess around with our information and disrupt our work. If you mess around with it again, I will put you in a juvenile detention center."

"I'm sorry Uncle Feng, I won't do that again."

If you were to fight against Xiao Nie, even if you really punched him, it would be like hitting cotton, light and floating, because the moves he could use to counter it were totally unexpected by others.

"I understand. Wang Fan and Qin Xiaoyu were just saying goodbye to each other casually, and you reported them and then arrested them. Young man, do you want to pick up a wife for free?" Chen Lina pulled Nie Weimin behind her and returned the record book to Section Chief Feng.

Even if you are right, you still have to follow the rules. The record book of the public security station cannot be checked without permission. She still understands this.

"What labor model? This is just a crazy woman. Chief Feng, didn't Qin Xiaoyu want me to bail her out? I have 500 yuan now. Do you still want me to bail her out?"

As he spoke, he took out a stack of money. There were only a few ten-yuan notes, and the rest were all dimes, with fifty-cent notes being the most numerous.

"Mom, do you understand? He got these five hundred yuan by exchanging fifty-cent notes for whole money at the credit union," said Nie Weimin.

Zhao Donglai also heard it, and turned around to stare at Chen Lina and her son. He also suddenly noticed Liu Xiaohong and stared at her. Suddenly he smiled and said, "If you have money, pay it. If you don't have money, leave. I don't know what's wrong with you. You always run into shit wherever you go."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a slap in the face. "Who are you calling a piece of shit, kid? Your dad and mom are busy at work, they never taught you how to behave yourself."

"Chen Lina, all the men in the entire mining area are your lackeys, except me. You old lady, why do I run into you everywhere? It's really unlucky. Chief Feng, I want to fire you."

"I want to rescue him too, and I have 500 yuan. But, Chief Feng, you can't let Zhao Donglai go today. I want to report the case now. The victim is Qin Xiaoyu, and the criminal is Zhao Donglai."

"This is really crazy, Chief Feng, I have met a dog, I want to leave now."

Zhao Donglai held up his five hundred yuan as if it were a treasure, turned around and was about to leave, but when he entered the door, he was blocked by a tall and thin young man.

"My mother asked you to stay because she wants to report the case to the police. Don't you have ears?" The young man asked, clenching his fists and looking up.

Zhao Donglai clenched his fists, making a clattering sound. "What's the matter? You want to fight, kid? If I punch you, you'll die..."

"Wei Min!" Liu Xiaohong shouted. The man's fist was still in the air when Nie Wei Min threw himself on him. Then Zhao Donglai fell to the ground, twisting into a ball, holding his crotch.

All the security forces rushed in.

"This boy is only eleven years old. Can he be put in a juvenile detention center for beating someone up?" Section Chief Feng asked the instructor.

The instructor shook his head and said, "Only those over 14 years old can be detained."

"Captain Chen, what on earth are you trying to do? He wanted to get rid of someone, so why did you start fighting? And, Nie Weimin, who taught you to attack a man's crotch? Boy, I really want to grab your butt and give you a few slaps. Do you understand that Zhao Donglai is going to be kicked to pieces by you?"

If Section Chief Feng hadn't had a green skin, he would have already beaten this kid up long ago. He is so vicious.

"No, Chief Feng, if you don't catch this man for me, I will ask the police to intervene in this matter. There are so many female educated youth in our farm and in the mining area. They are all returning home one after another. I just looked through the instructor's report record. There are eight female educated youth detained in your police station.

And they were all charged with hooliganism. I was surprised. They were all good girls, but when they were about to return to the city, they all became hooligans. Can you tell me why?"

"The police, the police don't deal with hooliganism."

"But the police are responsible for framing crimes and redressing wrongful imprisonment. If you don't arrest Zhao Donglai now, I will go to the police station and sue you, Feng, for colluding with young people from society to intentionally frame female educated youth. You are the biggest culprit." Chen Lina pointed at Section Chief Feng's nose and said.

Section Chief Feng is in charge of the public security team, but he has a good temper. Of course, if he didn't have a good temper, he wouldn't have been so troubled by his wife that he didn't dare to go home for several years.

With a clang, he handcuffed Zhao Donglai.

Then, he spread his hands and said, "Chen Lina, if you can't prove that Zhao Donglai is guilty today, you two will be detained together tonight."

"Aunt, you don't want to lock me up again, do you?" Liu Xiaohong said, holding Chen Lina's hand.

Chen Lina shook her head and said firmly, "No, I just found that I've been resting for a few months, and something bad has happened. Okay, don't stay here, go to the Public Security Bureau immediately, don't look for anyone else, just look for Yu Donghai who just registered our household registration, and ask him to come here for me."

So, Xiao Chen really slapped five hundred yuan on the table and said, "Chief Feng, this money was originally given to me by the mining area. It was my salary for the past two years. I slapped it all here. However, I don't want to save a person. I just want to get Qin Xiaoyu out first. Then, if I can prove her innocence, you have to return the money to me. I will follow the procedures and abide by the law, but I can't stand being wronged."

Section Chief Feng took a look and did not register the plan. He paid the money and asked the instructor to call Qin Xiaoyu.

Inside the security team's detention room, there were seven or eight women, each guarding a corner, just sitting there.

"You're hiding banned books, you know? Especially something like 'Girl's Heart'. If you really want to go back home, they'll put this in their file.

From now on, your crime as a hooligan cannot be washed away, and you will forever be branded with the stigma of shame and will never be able to raise your head again."

The words of the security team instructor were still echoing in Qin Xiaoyu's ears.

Besides a few female hooligans, there were also one who killed her husband and one who strangled her own child to death who were imprisoned in the security team's detention room like her. These two were shameless and were still laughing loudly, one was tapping her toes and the other was picking her teeth.

The water in the bathroom was dripping non-stop. Qin Xiaoyu took off her coat and was twisting and turning, her eyes fixed on the tinned water pipe on the roof.

The tin at the leaking place had been washed away, and the iron embroidery mixed with water was dripping down to her feet.

"Then instructor, what do you think I should do?" Qin Xiaoyu asked the instructor at that time.

The instructor said, "There is a man who wants to bail you out. He doesn't mind that you are a female gangster and is willing to bail you out for 500 yuan. Then from now on, you will have to live in the mining area and marry him. Do you want to do that? If you do, he will bail you out. If not, we can only send you back to your hometown."

Qin Xiaoyu knew that person. His name was Zhao Donglai. He was a villain who often stood at the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative and teamed up with some women inside the cooperative to defraud the elderly and children.

In fact, he had been staring at her for a long time, but she wanted to return to her hometown to continue her studies.

So, the matter with Wang Fan was completely a set-up. But the book "Girl's Heart" was given to her by Zhao Donglai, and it went from her hands to Wang Fan's hands. It was also her who harmed Wang Fan, so she could only admit it.

However, just as Qin Xiaoyu was about to hang her shirt on the water pipe and prepare to commit suicide, there was a loud bang, and the big iron door of the detention room opened. The female instructor's cold voice came from outside, "Qin Xiaoyu, someone wants to bail you out, come out now."

"No, Captain, Captain, Qin Xiaoyu has hanged herself, come quickly." Along with the instructor's shout, there was immediately a sound of footsteps.

"No, instructor, it's better for someone like me to die. I don't want to be bailed out by Zhao Donglai. I beg you, please look, I have already written a suicide note to prove that my death has nothing to do with the security team. I beg you, now for me, death is the best choice, I will not drag you down. OK?"

The most terrifying thing in life is probably that you can’t even ask for death.

"It's not Zhao Dong who is here to protect you, but Hua Mulan, Awarguli, from Mulan Farm in our mining area, and Director Chen wants to protect you. Well, let's talk about it after we get out." Section Chief Feng said.

The moment Qin Xiaoyu saw Chen Lina, tears burst out like a dam breaking.

She often saw her coming to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. Of course, the female employees working in the supply and marketing cooperative also rushed to entertain her. She was naturally enthusiastic and contagious, and always made people feel extremely happy.

However, Qin Xiaoyu never thought that she would meet Director Chen in such a hopeless situation.

"The book 'Girl's Heart' was given to you by Zhao Donglai, right?" Chen Lina asked the young lady straight to the point.

Qin Xiaoyu was at a loss, pinching the corner of her clothes. It was really humiliating. She was asked to talk about the book in front of her. She nodded and said, "Yes."

"There are quite a few educated youths who came with you. If I were to guess correctly, he gave the book "Girl's Heart" not only to you, but also to several educated youths. Am I right?"

Qin Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, but shook her head and said, "No, it's just me."

"No, everyone must have a copy. And there were at least five people who were arrested and convicted of hooliganism just like you. You didn't want to expose others because you were afraid of implicating other educated youth, right?" Chen Lina said again.

Qin Xiaoyu bit her lips tightly and said nothing.

"Chief Feng, now that I am the plaintiff, I can always check your case report and police records," Chen Lina said.

"This is not allowed without orders from above."

"I am your superior. I would like to review your dispatch records, Chief Feng. Is that ok?"

Before the voice fell, a young man in a grass-green police uniform walked into the mediation room. He had fair skin, a bright smile, and a wide-brimmed hat in his hands. He shook hands directly and said, "I'm from our mining area public security bureau. My name is Yu Donghai. Hello, Chief Feng."

"Well, look, there are fifteen records of Zhao Donglai reporting crimes to the police. Ten female educated youth were arrested after he reported crimes to the police. Here are eight records of his guarantor. Chief Feng, there is something wrong with your work. He is clearly trafficking in women."

"No way, the girl also agreed to be with him, saying that she would be brought back to get married." said Section Chief Feng.

Yu Donghai laughed and said, "So he has at least eight wives now. Let me ask you, does he have eight wives in his family?"

"He used banned books to seduce and trap beautiful female educated youth, and then let them take the blame at the critical moment of returning to the city, and then bailed them out. Because they were charged with crimes, he controlled them and sold them to bachelors in mining areas or more remote places who needed wives, and made money from them. Am I right?"

Zhao Donglai had been detained because Nie Weimin had kicked him in the balls and he was groaning uncontrollably.

If it weren't for the security team's strict defense, Nie Weimin really wanted to knee him again and burst his balls.

"This issue is now under investigation by our Public Security Bureau. Kidnapping, framing and harming women are serious crimes that cannot be ignored. Chief Feng, your work is really problematic. I think if you don't take responsibility anymore, I really have to ask the leaders to review your work." Yu Donghai said.

"No, Comrade Xiao Yu, you can't just say release Qin Xiaoyu. I just want to ask, it's true that "Girl's Heart" is a banned book, but how can it be written into the file just for reading a banned book? Where did this ban come from?" Chen Lina asked when she saw Section Chief Feng was checking Qin Xiaoyu's file.

Xiao Yu, who is more handsome than Staff Officer Yu, said, "This is a ban issued by the higher-ups in 1973. We are just carrying out our mission."

"If I remember correctly, the man who issued the ban had his plane crashed, and now the authorities are saying that all his policies are wrong."

"But there hasn't been any official document from above saying that banned books should be released now." Section Chief Feng's mind seemed to be in a state of confusion.

"Then I ask you, everyone in this office, can you guarantee that no one has read the book? If anyone can say with a clear conscience that he has not read it, then you can charge Xiao Qin with hooliganism. I have no objection. If anyone dares to say something against his conscience, then I have to say that you are not worthy of the national emblem of the Republic, because you are lying, so how can you talk about faith?"

Most of the people working in the Security Center and the Public Security Bureau are men, but of course there are also female instructors.

As Chen Lina's eyes swept over, everyone lowered their heads. Even Section Chief Feng took off his hat and exposed his scalp.

You little brat, Chen Lina thought to herself, even laborers keep pornographic films in secret, who in this world doesn't have the slightest curiosity about matters between men and women?

Everyone has flaws in their personal morality. What basis do you have to judge others based on this?

"Although there has been no official document issued, I will go to the Public Security Bureau today to ask for instructions from the leadership. From now on, Comrade Chen, I will push for no sentence if possible for hooliganism in our mining area. Even if we do sentence, we will sentence with caution. Are you satisfied with this?"

Yu Donghai then handed her Xiao Qin's file. "She is innocent, okay?"

When Qin Xiaoyu heard that she was innocent, she couldn't believe it. She just sat down on the ground and started crying. She couldn't get up even if someone helped her.

At this moment, the public security station still has several educated youth who are about to be punished for hooliganism.

Wang Fan, an ordinary teenager of about fourteen or fifteen years old at Base No. 1, was also released. His mother, Mrs. Duan, had gone to the credit union to withdraw money and was ready to act as a guarantor. When she heard that her son's hooliganism charge had been cancelled and he was released directly, she burst into tears.

All the men and women who were imprisoned for hooliganism can of course be acquitted, have no criminal record, and be released with a clean slate.

Promoting judicial system, or improving judicial progress, may be difficult at the national level, at least in small places.

You want to clear yourself of the crime of hooliganism, because at present, these things are not explicitly stipulated, it is just a kind of custom, so it is really not difficult.

But no one is willing to take that step.

Since it has nothing to do with you, you can just ignore it.

After leaving the police station, I have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things.

Lu Baili, Section Chief Feng's wife, stood up long ago and said, "Director Chen, you look so beautiful today. Tell me what you want and I'll get it for you."

"Those two pairs of white canvas shoes look good. My two children, a boy and a girl, each need a pair. Take out two pairs and let them try them out."

Lu Baili turned around, took off her shoes and gave them to Nie Weimin.

"It would be great if you could live in my house. Look, my mom would buy us shoes and clothes, but that aunt is such a stingy person. Hey, don't move. I'm tying your shoelaces for you."

Xiao Nie put on his white canvas shoes, bent his knees on the ground, and with a flick of two fingers, the boy tied a bow on Liu Xiaohong's white sneakers.

"How about you stay at my house from now on?" He said, looking up.

"You want me to wash your stinky socks every day? No way." The girl folded her arms and turned around, admiring her shoes.

The young man and the girl, who seemed to be smiling, were blocked outside the supply and marketing cooperative. "What about now? If you save too much, you can wash it anyway. Is there any difference?" He blew his bangs and bit his lip. "Just say you are willing to stay, and my mother will agree."

The fair-skinned, thin boy was very serious in front of others, but in front of her, he was like a little hooligan.

Liu Xiaohong stared at him for a while, said she was disgusted, turned around and suddenly called out, "Sister Xiaobing, why are you here?"

Xiao Nie immediately raised his head and shook his hair, turned around and wanted to call Sister Gao, then looked at Liu Xiaohong who ran away with her hands covering her mouth, and gritted his teeth in anger, "Little damn girl, you have learned to coax people. This is it."
