Chapter 128

Seeking revenge

Sun Ainan's self-disclosure that he had slandered many people out of personal grudges naturally caused an uproar in the entire mining area.

For a while, whether on the street, in front of the shaver, ear cleaner or shoe repair stall, everyone was talking about Sun Ainan. Of course, no matter where she went, people would spit at her behind her.

But if you think this matter is over, then you are underestimating Chen Lina.

Just when the case of Sun Ainan was not over yet, Deng Daqing, a staff member of the grain station, posted his confession in the small square in the middle of the night, confessing his mistakes in the past of deliberately framing others and fighting with personal motives.

However, the day after he confessed, he was murdered outside his home.

Of course, the case was solved quickly.

He was the son of an intellectual who was framed by him in his early years. He could not forget the look of his father after he hanged himself, so he killed someone in a rage.

The confessions of Sun Ai-nan and Deng Da-qing aroused the hatred of more and more residents in the mining area towards those bad elements in the past.

Everyone's eyes are on you. If anyone does something bad and doesn't write a confession, there will be a group of people following him, pointing fingers at him, and probably slapping him behind his back.

It's like, if you don't repent, I'm going to kill you with a brick.

For a time, confession became a trend, and former bad guys would often sneak to the People's Square in the middle of the night to post big-character posters of their confession.

Of course, from then on, the practice of cutting off the tail of capitalism disappeared within a few days.

That's how bad people are written. They are busy cutting their own tails, so how can they care about cutting other people's tails?

After District Chief Gao was promoted to the autonomous region, good news came immediately. First, the woolen textile factory was built at full speed. With sufficient funds, once the large machines were put into operation and personnel were recruited, the building was built and the factory building was erected.

Since Chen Lina was the factory manager, she would go to the construction site every now and then to check on the work.

That day, she had just returned from the construction site and went to the Public Security Bureau. Of course, she went to inquire whether Feng Yu had been caught. As a result, when she came out of the Public Security Bureau and before she could drive her old jeep, she was stopped by Leng Qi who was holding a toothpick in his hand.

"No, Xiao Chen, we are all gay, and I am frank with you. I like you very much. Bo Zhao knows it without me having to tell him. Sometimes you don't understand. I have my own family. I don't want to do anything. I just want to talk to you occasionally, chat about family matters, and meet you. It feels really good, the kind of good that cannot be described.

But you are being a bit partial, aren't you? You go to the police station every day, have you never read the love letters that the police wrote to you or what?"

What I mean is, I have some admiration for you, so why do you ignore me and go out to play with Yu Gongan?

How should I put it about Chen Lina's attitude towards Leng Qi, the old rogue? It can be said that she knows him too well. No matter how pretentious he pretends to be, she can always expose him.

"No, it's because he has been very serious about pursuing the case of Section Chief Feng. Feng Yu has been on the run for three months. Didn't you say that your armed forces would find Feng Yu and the evil forces hiding behind him? Minister Leng, what about the military warrant you issued and the words you said? I just want to ask, are you worthy of the national emblem on your hat?"

Now no one cuts the tail of a woman's hair, and no one criticizes her manners. Even Miss Chen dares to wear a skirt on the street.

She was wearing a black sundress that she had cut herself, and a white shirt. She was a beauty in her mid-twenties, with long flowing hair and cold eyes, just like Brigitte Lin who had walked out of a Taiwanese movie.

Leng Qi was speechless after being scolded. He stood there and watched Miss Chen hurry up and drive away in her broken jeep.

Back at the Armed Forces Department, Minister Leng still had to listen to reports from his subordinates.

The new Chief of Staff is Comrade Feng Jing, who returned from the Vietnam battlefield and had made many military achievements.

He said, "Minister Leng, after our investigation and three months of surprise interrogations, we now have a list of the criminals. Look, it's all here."

"It can be said that our mining area is the lair of these bandits on the border. Local protection and Feng Yu's instructions to call these criminals to commit crimes not in the mining area but in the entire border area are the biggest reasons why we have always found it difficult to wipe them out." Chief of Staff Feng added.

…

"According to our informants, Feng Yu carried a large amount of guns and ammunition with him. His actions were extremely secretive and he was also very fast. Of course, it was not easy to catch him because he had many coverts. However, we have already prepared to remove this cancer from the mining area."

Leng Qi still didn't say anything.

Finally, Chief of Staff Feng couldn't help but said, "Minister Leng, you should know that Feng Yu was originally the head of the security team, or a local tyrant. The reason why he is wanted is closely related to Nie Gong's son Nie Weimin. We now suspect that he is going to seek revenge on the Nie family. If we don't arrest him, I'm afraid Nie Gong will be in danger."

Minister Leng still remained silent.

"Minister Leng, we can't wait any longer. I think Feng Yu will seek revenge in the next few days. We should take action to arrest him.

If you want to find more criminals, we should also guard outside the door of Nie Gong's house, at least to protect his family. "Chief of Staff Feng began to slam the table. "I don't know what kind of mentality you have, Minister Leng, but now the criminal forces have threatened the personal safety of the most valuable scientific researchers in our mining area. If you don't care anymore, I will personally hold a gun and guard outside the door of Nie Gong's house."

Leng Qi finally spoke, "If Feng Yu wants to go out, he will definitely do it himself. Let's do this. Set up defenses quietly, but don't move until you have time. Listen to my orders."

This man is like a child at the age of thirty.

If they are calm, they can accomplish anything, but if they are awkward, they really become like children.

When it comes to evil forces and bandits, it's impossible not to suppress them. Leng Qi is still hoping to make further progress.

After all, he is currently being sent down to be trained, and if he is really promoted again, he will have a bright future.

But, he is more powerful than Boss Nie who came from the same compound.

It is necessary to protect Nie Bozhao. If Nie Bozhao is to be sacrificed, he, the Minister of Armed Forces, will have to die first. But is it enough to just protect him?

What effect did he want? It was a gunfight, the smoke of war, the Nie Bozhao family being forced into a corner by Feng Yu, with those little brats huddled together and shivering, and he brought the officers and soldiers of the armed forces to swoop in, kick open the door, and save them.

So, hasn't Xiao Chen always looked down on him?

Leng Qi smiled and said that it was time to show Miss Chen what a hero was in the midst of gunfire.

Here, not to mention Miss Chen, even the three eggs were completely unaware that danger was approaching them.

It's summer vacation already.

The weather was hot enough. Nie Weimin and Erdan walked out of the school, each holding a test paper. Nie Weimin's face was filled with pride and arrogance, after all, he had scored full marks in every subject.

Erdan was also very proud. "Sister Gao, how many points did you get in the exam?"

"Don't ask, I didn't do well in English, I only got 99 points," said Gao Xiaobing.

Well, I was showing off to the wrong person. So Erdan turned around and asked, "Tiantian, how many points did you get in the exam?"

"Oh, 53 points. Erdan, what do you think we should do?"

"I got 93 in English. Come to my house later and I'll tutor you, okay?" I finally found someone to show off to.

"Really? Erdan, okay, you really have to help me. I got the last place in the exam again this time, and I was the last in every subject." Tiantian has hardly grown this year. She is two years older than Erdan. When she walks next to him, her face is as round as a younger sister.

Besides, she has accepted her fate now and knows that her period is not a big deal.

Like a little sister, she took Erdan's hand and said, "By the way, my cousin sent me two jars of honey. If you want to eat some, let's go to the small woods in the back and eat them together quietly. If Jinbao finds out, he will eat them all up."

When Erdan heard about honey, his mouth watered. "Okay, okay, bring your English book with you and I'll help you with your studies, okay?"

Liu Xiaohong had left long ago. When the three children saw a jeep parked at the school gate, Erdan and Nie Weimin started their 100-meter sprint. "Mom, Mom."

Even if I could take a bus to the mining area, I would eventually return home sooner or later.

After school

It came over like a cannonball, leaving two big black handprints on Chen Lina's white shirt.

Well, no matter how beautifully you dress up, as long as you meet Erdan, your look will be ruined in a second.

"You said you got 93 in English?" Chen Lina confirmed it twice before she believed it.

"Kiss me, Mom. You said I should get a kiss if I did well in the exam." Erdan said, pointing at his sweaty forehead.

Regardless of the fact that he stank like a pig, Chen Lina gave him a sweet kiss.

Chen Tiantian laughed from behind, "A child this old still needs his mother to kiss him, Erdan, aren't you ashamed?"

But she thought again, she was already a grown-up girl, while Nie Weimin and Erdan were still children who had their periods. In an instant, Tiantian stopped talking. To be honest, she had not grown much taller and had two little buds on her chest, which made her feel even more inferior.

After returning to the base, Nie Weimin and Erdan rushed to the elementary school like the Japanese devils to pick up their little Dandan.

Chen Lina and Tiantian were walking back together. Because she noticed that the girl always hunched her chest, she said, "That's not right, Tiantian, why don't you walk with your chest lifted up like Xiaohong? Hunching your chest like this will make you look like a hunchback, and you will lose your temperament. For a girl, temperament is very important."

"Auntie Xiao Chen, I, I seem to be sick." Tiantian hesitated for a long time before pointing to her chest and saying, "I'm swollen here, I'm afraid people will see it."

As she spoke, the little girl's eyes turned red.

Chen Lina stopped where she was, looked for a long time, and found the problem.

Pulling Tiantian into Wang's house, she said, "Sister Wang, have you ever talked to Tiantian about physiology and hygiene, and about her development? The child has developed. You can see that she has been dimpling her breasts recently."

Sister Wang had to take care of the three children because Chen Zili's salary was not enough to support her parents. She was also busy working part-time on the farm. She said, "I told you before, this is normal. It's okay. This girl is just sensitive. Haven't you seen how thin she has become recently?"

The chubby and sweet girl when she was little now has a face the size of a palm and is as small as a kitten.

Chen Lina simply walked in, unbuttoned her bra and showed it to Tiantian, "Look, we all grow, it's normal for us women to grow and develop breasts, there's nothing to be ashamed of, look how high my breasts are."

Tiantian looked up at Chen Lina, stuck out her tongue, and said, "Mom, I still remember drinking your milk when I was a child. I want to drink milk. Auntie Chen, do you have milk?"

Chen Lina covered her with her shirt and said, "Sister Wang, how long have you been feeding this child? She knows milk now."

Sister Wang said, "When she was five years old, Jinbao was eating it, and she was also eating it secretly. She has tasted the breasts of many women in our mining area. If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten it."

"Remember to give her more milk in the future and try to give her less honey. Honey contains a lot of hormones. Drinking more milk will help her grow taller." Chen Lina said.

Sister Wang thought for a long time and patted her head. "You mean eating too much honey will make her grow up early?" She sighed and said, "My brother sent a lot of honey from his hometown. I love her so much that I didn't want to give it to Jinbao and Doudou. I ate it all by herself."

"Let him eat less in the future. Children can't eat too much honey." Chen Lina said.

The child has already grown up, and saying something like she won't grow tall in the future would just hurt people's feelings, so Chen Lina simply stopped saying it.

When she got home, she went to the small vegetable garden and was about to pick vegetables to cook dinner when she heard footsteps and knew that the laborer and his sons had returned from get off work.

Apart from Sandan, Erdan has the heaviest footsteps. He is only 10 years old, but his footsteps are so heavy that he can keep up with Harbin Institute of Technology.

No, she just smelled the scent of cold lamb skewers. When she looked up, she saw that it was Harbin Institute of Technology who came, holding a hunting rifle in his arms.

"Xiao Chen, the worker hasn't come back yet. I want to borrow something from him."

Chen Lina was stunned. "No, what do you want to borrow?"

"Borrow a hunting rifle," said Harbin Institute of Technology. "My cousin is visiting from Tacheng and wants to go out and hunt rabbits."

"Go borrow it from someone else, Ha Gong. Nie Gong hid his gun behind a large cupboard because he was afraid that some kids might play with it. I can't get it out for you right now."

Harbin Institute of Technology then turned to the front yard, looked at the rabbit cage he had made five years ago, and said, "Xiao Chen, your old rabbit is dead, didn't you notice?"

Chen Lina picked a basket of vegetables and went out to take a look. Really, there was an old rabbit with long white hair lying in the rabbit cage. Just by looking at the flies surrounding it, she knew it was dead.

"Don't be fooled by the old and stupid rabbit. It's the treasure of the three Nie brothers. Ha Gong, I'm busy washing vegetables. Can you dig a hole in the backyard and bury it?"

Harbin Institute of Technology took out the old rabbit, looked at it, and then went to bury it.

Seeing that Chen Lina looked unhappy while washing vegetables, Harbin Institute of Technology comforted her and said, "This rabbit is five years old, Lina. You should treat it as a human being. It has lived for 40 to 50 years. There is nothing to be unhappy about."

"Yes, I see your wife is pregnant too. She will give you a dragon baby."

"Why is it Dragon Baby?" asked Harbin Institute of Technology.

"Next year, 1976, is the Year of the Dragon for us Han people."

"Oh, that's good, that's good." said Harbin Institute of Technology.

The two talked and laughed for a while, then Harbin Institute of Technology turned and left. But Chen Lina felt that Harbin Institute of Technology seemed a little unhappy.

After a while, the worker came back with his three sons.

Nie Weimin is tall and thin, Erdan has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is tall and strong, but his skin is dark, as dark as that of his African brother. Erdan has a small round face, no wonder he pretends to be young, Nie Weimin was like this when he was seven or eight years old, with a round head and cute face.

The whole family is having a meal together. In the hot summer, of course the first choice is cucumber cold noodles.

Erdan can cook two bowls of cold noodles by himself.

After all, it is summer vacation, so they don’t have to do homework tonight. The three brothers don’t know yet that their little sister is gone. Of course, their little sister is old, and apart from Chen Lina feeding her, they don’t pay much attention to her anymore.

After dinner, the three of them played around under the grape trellis.

Erdan and Nie Weimin are playing apricot kernels. Whoever the kernel hits can win it back from the other. This game can train children's accuracy and is also a favorite game for children in summer. They often enjoy it and can play for a long time.

But Sandan bit his tongue and felt that something was wrong with the Harbin Institute of Technology next door.

After thinking for a long time, he went in to find his father.

"Dad, dad, there are already eight guests at Uncle Ha's house. That's not right. The uncle from Ha Gong's house told me yesterday that he has four or five brothers. So, it must be four or five. Why is there eight uncles?"

"How do you know it's the eighth uncle?"

"They come in and out, and even though they wear the same clothes and look similar, they are not the same person," said Sandan.

Chen Lina said, "By the way, HIT once came to our house to borrow a hunting rifle. Lao Nie, there are eight men in the neighbor's house, and each of them has a hunting rifle. Why do I feel so scared? Could HIT be colluding with bandits?"

To be honest, ever since Section Chief Feng ran away, Nie Gong's family has never let down their guard. They have been very careful in fear of the other party coming to seek revenge.

When Engineer Nie heard that Harbin Institute of Technology had come to borrow a hunting rifle, he turned around and went out to take a look. At the place where Harbin Institute of Technology had just sat, he used his finger to draw one line after another and wrote two words: Help.

But Chen Lina was too busy and didn't even look at it.

"There's nothing wrong with Harbin Institute of Technology, but his cousin, from what Dandan said, is definitely a bandit. I'm right, the enemy lives next door to our house."

"What should I do?" At this time, Miss Chen's charm could not be displayed, and she could only rely on manual labor.

After all, he is usually gentle and silent, devoted to scientific research, but at critical moments, he will still be 2.8 meters tall.

Just like at this moment, he took off his glasses, rubbed them, and took out a pistol from under the table. He disassembled it habitually, his brows slightly wrinkled, his movements were still quick and agile, and his voice was extremely calm.

"Call Weimin and Weiguo in. There must be something wrong with the people next door. So, now we have to come up with a counterattack strategy. Miss Chen, I have three sons. At this time, we have to make full use of them and ask them to help us catch those evil elements."
