The two of them slumped for a while, and Lin Lan pushed Han Qingsong away, "Come, help me chop the stuffing, and we'll make dumplings."

She laid out the Chinese cabbage, the black fungus that had been soaked in the morning, the meat, and dried shrimps, washed them clean, and asked Han Qingsong to help chop the stuffing.

She went to find the fine noodles again, and she smiled and said to Han Qingsong, "This is what you made with Da Wang last time. The housekeeper couldn't bear to eat it, so it's left over. Otherwise, we have to grind the noodles now to eat dumplings today, and we won't be able to eat them in the middle of the night."

Erwang was appointed by her as the chief housekeeper, to help her manage the accounts and food. However, the housekeeper was always worried that his mother was extravagant and the family would go hungry, so he was always stingy on weekdays.

Lin Lan thinks this is a good thing, as frugality is a virtue.

After she finished kneading the dough, she covered the bed with a lid and kept him awake. She then watched Han Qingsong chopping the stuffing and reminded him to be gentle.

He was so strong that he looked like he was going to break the chopping board.

The children came home one after another. When they saw dumplings being made at home, they shouted happily and asked to help make them.

Lin Lan was directing Han Qingsong to stir the stuffing. The stuffing of cabbage, pork and dried shrimps was really rare, with the rich aroma of pork, the sweetness of dried shrimps, and the refreshing taste of black fungus and cabbage. She also beat an egg into the stuffing and asked him to stir it in one direction.

But after all, there is less meat and more vegetables, so you can't force it.

The dough has risen, Han Qingsong helps to roll out the dough while Lin Lan makes the dumplings.

Seeing Sanwang reaching out to grab the noodles, Han Qingsong flipped the rolling pin and blocked Sanwang's hand.

"handwashing."

Xiao Wang rushed over and spread out his hands: "I'll wash it."

Han Qingsong also pushed him away, "Play the harmonica, don't play with noodles."

Xiaowang was very disappointed. Although he didn't know how to make dumplings, he tried very hard to help his mother make them, and... he really wanted to play with dough.

It's soft and if you pinch it, it can turn into a little rabbit.

...want to play...want to...play...

Lin Lan looked at the child's pretty eyes, and saw the strong desire to play was about to flow out. She couldn't help laughing, and said to Han Qingsong: "I'll give him a small piece, let him pinch the little rabbit, and then cook it for him to eat."

Xiao Wang nodded immediately, his eyes sparkling, "Okay, okay."

Erwang and Maisui had already washed their hands and came over to help pack.

Xiaowang also got to play with the group as he wished.

Sanwang also washed his hands and joined in the fun.

Da Wang took a look, walked into the east room with an expressionless face, and started doing his homework!

Lin Lan took a quick look and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with Big Brother?" It's not normal for him to do his homework right after coming back. He must have been upset.

A few children giggled.

Sanwang lowered his voice but still couldn't help laughing while speaking, "My eldest brother asked my second brother and someone else to do his homework for him, but the handwriting was different and it was exposed. The teacher punished him by making him copy the text ten times. Hahahahahaha..."

Lin Lan: “…”

She looks at Erwang.

Erwang forced a smile and said, "Mom, I didn't mean it. I was busy listening to the propaganda the past two days and didn't have time to write to Big Brother..."

Then he said he was bald.

When Lin Lan and her team are doing publicity, if there are private conversations between adults, they usually don't let children hear them. They will notify in advance that children are not allowed to come tonight. They will also organize some groups that can bring children, so as not to make the children feel unbalanced. Of course, they will also organize groups with only children, and not let adults hear them, so that the children will feel that the publicity team is fair and not biased towards adults.

However, even so, the children would still secretly hide outside and listen in.

Erwang and Dawang never missed a class, but they kept it a secret from the adults.

Lin Lan: "Oh, you have such a secret."

Erwang chuckled, showing off his elegant temperament at a young age, in an attempt to influence his old mother.

Lin Lan snorted, "This matter is very serious, it must be severely punished!"

Xiao Wang shuddered and pulled the little rabbit's ears off. His face turned pale. "Send, send to the labor camp?"

The villagers have become accustomed to threatening their children when they are disobedient, saying things like "Han Qingsong will take you to a labor camp."

Xiaowang thought it was the most severe punishment.

Sanwang laughed out loud, "Stupid Xiaowang!"

Han Qingsong glanced at him, and frightened him so much that his laughter got stuck in his throat, "Hiccup~~Hiccup~~"

Mai Sui laughed and said, "As punishment, you are not allowed to eat dumplings. Haha."

Erwang was afraid of offending his elder brother, so he whispered, "You can still...eat less."

Lin Lan: "Still copying the text."

She never deducted food from her children. She glanced at the broom beside her, which had become a lump. It didn't hurt to hit someone with it, and she couldn't bear to break it, so she said, "From now on, your eldest brother will have to write his homework twice. This is the punishment given to him by your parents."

She glanced at Han Qingsong, and seeing that he had no objection, she emphasized, "You all remember this, if you don't study hard, the punishment will be severe!"

The children immediately responded, "I know!"

Nonsense, Heidae is here, who dares not express their stance quickly?

Dawangdun in the room felt a black screen before his eyes, and a chilling feeling of being arrested and sent to forced labor surged up from the bottom of his heart.

When will these dark and miserable days end?!

Da Wang was in a state of confusion inside, but his face was as stiff as a cutting board, without any expression at all.

Lin Lan took a quick look and found him sitting there writing furiously. She smiled and continued making dumplings.

When the dumplings were almost done, Erwang said he wanted to light a fire.

Lin Lan said, "Go do your homework and let your father burn it."

Sanwang led Xiaowang and rushed out. Xiaowang was still holding his own dough in his hand. He was afraid of dropping it, so he had to hold it tightly, but he didn't dare to use too much force for fear of crushing his little dough rabbit to death.

When I went out, I happened to see Xiaofu from my second aunt's family peeking outside.

"What are you doing?" Sanwang asked.

Xiao Fu fiddled with his fingers: "Do you guys eat meat?"

Sanwang: "Of course, you didn't eat?"

Xiao Fu shook his head.

Sanwang: "We are eating dumplings."

Xiaofu said he wanted to eat.

Sanwang: "But no, grandma said you are not allowed to talk to my family, otherwise she will kick you out."

Xiao Fu pouted and looked eagerly towards the courtyard gate, but he could only see the screen wall.

He wants to eat dumplings, too.

Sanwang: "Do you remember that you guys secretly ate two cups of flour cakes without my mother's knowledge? The sweet potatoes you gave us were also hollow."

Xiaofu nodded.

Sanwang: “How bad!”

Xiao Fu: “How bad!”

Sanwang was delighted. "Wait for me to get it for you."

He turned around and ran back home, and while Lin Lan wasn't looking, he quietly took three raw dumplings and ran out.

Xiao Fu was looking forward to it.

Sanwang handed him the dumplings and said, "Here, don't say I'm reluctant to give them to you. Take them home and have Auntie steam them while she's cooking."

Xiaowang nodded, quickly took it, and ran away holding it.

Xiao Wang watched him stuff the raw dumplings into his mouth and wondered, "Brother, can dumplings be eaten raw?"

Sanwang: "Of course not! You can't eat raw dumplings, it will give you diarrhea."

Xiaowang pointed at Xiaofu who was running away: "He..."

Sanwang held his little hand and sighed, "Let's go home. He just came to ask for dumplings and won't play with us. If grandma knew he played with us, she would beat him."

Xiaowang went home with his brother.

Han Qingsong lit the fire while Lin Lan boiled and cleaned the chopping board, knives, chopsticks and other items. Soon the water boiled and it was time to put the dumplings in.

The plump white dumplings jumped into the water like a line of white geese, creating waves and wafting a fragrance.

Sanwang began to teach Xiaowanger to sing: "Big dumpling, white and white, with one edge, standing upright, can swim, loves to eat meat, jumps around and is so cute!"

What a terrible singing!

Xiaowang sang along, and he sang really beautifully!

Everyone laughed and asked Sanwang to stop yelling because it was so unpleasant.

Lin Lan picked up a big bowl of dumplings and looked around, thinking that there should be enough for her family.

She called Erwang and Maisui out and said, "You can quietly call Gumi and ask her to take the dumplings back to eat."

Before the family split up, sister-in-law Han and eldest brother were quite nice to them, but because of the old lady, many things became meaningless.

Lin Lan would secretly give Gu Mi some food whenever she saw her.

Erwang and Mai Sui had helped Lin Lan deliver food to Auntie before, so they were experienced and cautious, so there would be basically no mistakes if they were in charge.

They would be happy to give it to my aunt's family, but they would not be happy if it was given to someone else, after all, they don't have much at home.

When the two came back, Lin Lan said it was time to eat.

When the dumplings were served, the rich aroma unique to meat-filled dumplings wafted into the air. The children were salivating with anticipation, and Sanwang was drooling excitedly.

Before starting to eat, Han Qingsong said, "These are dumplings that mom earned with her knowledge. The whole family should be grateful."

The children all said, "Thank you, Mom!"

Except for Da Wang, everyone else shouted, "We must also study hard and make money with knowledge!"

Sanwang followed suit and said loudly that he would study hard.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Eat."

The white flour dumplings, stuffed with pork, dried shrimp and cabbage, smell delicious, and when you bite into them, the sweet and fragrant soup flows into your mouth. It is hot and fresh, and the children can't wait to swallow it with their tongues.

They were all smiling and not bothering to talk. They just buried their heads in eating. Even Da Wang's eyes were shining and sweat was coming out of his nose while he ate.

Seeing them eating so happily, Lin Lan was very pleased. She could also make money and improve her team's diet with her knowledge. It really gave her a sense of accomplishment.

After eating the dumplings, the children drank the dumpling soup, which dissolved the food in its original state, while they touched their stomachs and burped.

Lin Lan snapped her fingers and said, "I am now very solemnly announcing a few rules."

The children were attracted by her jingling fingers and imitated her one after another. Sanwang rubbed his ten fingers hard but no sound came out.

Han Qingsong glanced at them, and they immediately straightened their backs, turned serious, and put their hands down.

Wangwang beside him sat down, raised his head and looked at Lin Lan seriously.

"First, as for being a person, you should not have the intention to harm others, but you should always be on guard against others. You should be upright and not harm others, but you should not be stupid either, and you should always be on guard against others. If someone actively asks you to do something shady, you should be careful to prevent it."

This rule applies to all children. In the original plot, Dawang embarks on the road of gangsterism, Erwang is also a smooth talker who spends money on eating, drinking, and whoring, and Sanwang is so arrogant that he is provoked to death.

"Second, regarding learning, cherish time and use every possible moment to learn. You may think that learning is useless, and that knowing how to read is useless, but when you grow up, one day you will realize that you will regret not having learned enough when you need it."

"Third, as for money, it's good to have enough. Money is not everything, but without money, you can do nothing. We have to rely on our own intelligence and hard work to create our own wealth. After we have enough money, it is just a number to us. Don't be greedy and don't endlessly possess money and wealth. That will only bring disaster."

She paused and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand these things now, just remember them, and you will understand them naturally when you grow up."

Han Qingsong: "Have you remembered everything?"

Erwang: “I’ve remembered.”

Han Qingsong: “Say it again.”

Erwang repeated the key points.

Next are Mai Sui and Da Wang.

Although Da Wang was unruly, he took Lin Lan's words to heart. It didn't matter whether he understood or not, he had to remember it, unless he was not afraid of being beaten.

To be honest, he was still afraid of being beaten by Heidi.

Sanwang had to be reminded three times before he could explain it clearly, and he memorized it only on the third time.

Xiao Wang began to sing: "Don't have the intention to harm others, but be on guard against others... cherish your time, study hard, and make contributions to the people when you grow up... you can't be without money, money is not everything, just enough to spend..."

"Wow! Xiaowang is so great!" Everyone applauded.

Xiaowang was a little shy, his cheeks were flushed, and his big eyes were narrowed when he smiled.

Lin Lan kissed him and said, "You're a great kid. Now, play for a while, read a book, and then go to bed."

While the children were playing, Han Qingsong took out the sorghum ears stored at home. The grains had been threshed and only the seedlings were left, which were just right for making brooms.

At that time, there were several kinds of brooms used by farmers. The very tall ones were made of bamboo seedlings and were called sweeping brooms. They were used to sweep the wide yard. The ones made of sorghum seedlings were used to sweep the floor of the house. The ones made of millet seedlings were small brooms for sweeping the kang.

Han Qingsong worked quickly, and with Lin Lan's help, it didn't take long for him to finish tying two brooms.

Lin Lan tried it and praised, "Director Han is really versatile. He can also tie a broom, and he ties it so well."

Some people don’t know how to tie the knot, so they have to ask others for help.

Han Qingsong was used to her sweet little mouth as if it were smeared with honey, and every time she praised him, he wanted to kiss her.

I think it’s almost done and I don’t want to deal with the rest, so I just put it away.

Lin Lan: "Are you not going to get it done?"

Han Qingsong: "It's getting late."

Lin Lan: “…”

It’s not early at all, it’s very early!

When Han Qingsong said to her, "It's getting late," it was a signal to start some kind of action.

This means: Wife, I want you, let’s take a shower and get on the bed quickly.

Lin Lan whispered in his ear that he had immunity today.

Han Qingsong looked at her: "Isn't it just a few days away?" He remembered her menstrual cycle better than she did.

Lin Lan: "You know, this is just like the weather forecast, it's basically inaccurate, it's always a couple of days early or late. Maybe you're busy, tired, in a bad mood, or the weather is cold or hot, it's all affected, don't worry about it."

Han Qingsong said, "You should go see an old Chinese doctor and ask him to prescribe some medicine for you."

Lin Lan saw that he looked very knowledgeable and asked, "Do you understand?"

Han Qingsong: "It's in the Barefoot Doctor's Handbook. What you have is called irregular menstruation."

Lin Lan: “…” It’s so weird to hear you say that so seriously.

"I drink red dates and brown sugar water. Just take care of yourself." This is an imbalance. Eight out of ten women have it. It can't be cured.

It may be like this at any time.

The next day, Han Qingsong went to the commune. Lin Lan spent the morning at home thinking about a new script. She sorted out the interesting stories she heard from other members, which she could use as material for the script.

When she was tired, she would make a bowl of brown sugar and ginger water to drink.

I was drinking soup when I heard someone rushing in from outside swearing.

"Lin Lan, Lin Lan, you are so bad!" Han's second sister-in-law rushed in and started scolding her without any shame.

Lin Lan frowned, put the bowl on the table, picked up the fire stick beside the door and walked out, "Second sister-in-law, if you come to my house to talk nicely, I won't welcome you. You come here to curse me, are you bored with your peaceful life and want to be beaten?"

Seeing that Lin Lan was not only strong in front of her, she immediately became weak and began to cry while slapping her legs, "Tell me if you are sincere. You made Xiaofu have diarrhea and vomit. He was tortured all night. He almost died."

Lin Lan wondered, "I sympathize with Xiaofu's illness, but are you blaming me? Are you planning to form a threesome with the Niu Caner sisters?"

When Han's second sister-in-law learned about Lin Lan scolding Zhao Guixiang and her sister for being urinals, she became so angry that her face changed color. "How can you scold your own second sister-in-law like that?"

"Then tell me how I should scold you?"

Han's second sister-in-law started crying again.

Lin Lan said in annoyance: "Okay, if you have something to say, tell me what's going on."

Han Ersao cried and said, "You guys made dumplings, but it's fine if you didn't give them to us, but you gave our Xiaofu raw dumplings to eat. You...you are so mean."

Lin Lan: "I didn't give him any food, I don't know where he got it from, don't blame me. Hurry up and leave, or I'll sue you for making trouble out of nothing and have you arrested!"

Han's second sister-in-law originally wanted to ask for some money as compensation, but seeing Lin Lan's attitude, she didn't even care about Xiao Fu and even threatened to arrest her. How could she not feel wronged, sad and angry?

Lin Lan pushed her out and said, "I have to go out for something. Hurry up and leave. I'm going to lock the door."

Han's second sister-in-law: "You, you have to pay!"

When Lin Lan looked at her, Han's second wife immediately and subconsciously straightened her chest.

Lin Lan straightened herself up and said, "I'm older than you, no need to show off."

Han's second wife: "...Whose problem is this? You guys gave Xiaofu an upset stomach, so you must be compensated."

Lin Lan: "If I give you two dollars, Xiaofu won't be sick anymore? Or do you want to take advantage of Xiaofu's illness to cheat me out of money? If everyone in the village comes to me for money when they have something to do, do you think I run a bank?"

She snorted, rolled her eyes at Han Ersao, locked the door and left.

Generally speaking, when people sympathize with children, they are simply referring to the group of children, not specifically the children of the Li family or the Liu family.

If it were the child of your enemy, you would probably hate the whole family, so how could you talk about love and sympathy?

Sometimes we should have more sympathy for the children of strangers than for the children of our sworn enemies.

Besides, what does Xiaofu's diarrhea have to do with her? It wasn't her fault.

She herself is sick, and her children are also sick. She doesn't go around asking for money or sympathy, right?

So, why does she have to show sympathy and give money when Xiaofu is sick?

What logic.

Lin Lan didn't want to pay attention, so she turned around and left. She wanted to go to school to see her child.

Only her own children can touch her heart the most.

As a result, Xiaowang was not in school. After teacher Huo's teaching in the morning, he went to the commune school to study, leaving Xiaowang to play.

Lin Lan went to Dong Huaihua's house to discuss for a while, and then went home as it was almost noon.

Xiaowang and Wangwang sat side by side on the stone steps at the gate waiting for her. Xiaowang's little hands rhythmically stroked the dog's fur. Wangwang was so comfortable that he tucked the dog's head into Xiaowang's arms, making comfortable sounds.

Wangwang's golden hair looks particularly beautiful in the sunlight. Xiaowang is also fair and pretty now. The boy and the dog make Lin Lan very cute.

The originally gloomy mood was instantly swept away.

She ran over with a smile, "Child, wait for me."

Xiao Wang immediately hugged her, and Lin Lan hugged and kissed him, lifting him up high, "Why don't you go play with your friends?"

Xiaowang is handsome, well-behaved, and can play the harmonica. The children like him very much.

Lin Lan thought that he already had children.

He hugged Lin Lan's neck and rubbed his head against her neck, "I miss my mother."

Lin Lan's heart softened, so she carried him home and said, "Mom will make you some fried dumplings."

There were a few dumplings left from last night, just right for Xiaowang to eat.

While Lin Lan was frying dumplings, Xiaowang wanted to play Teacher Huo's new music for his mother, but the sound was terrible.

Lin Lan recognized what was going on and took a look. "Kid, how come something is stuffed in there?" She poked it clean with a match and found that there was still mud and sand inside.

"Child, if the sand gets stuck in the harmonica, it will be damaged and you can't play it anymore."

Xiaowang immediately looked like he had done something wrong, lowered his head and looked very sad, but did not dare to say anything.

Lin Lan hurriedly comforted him, "Mom doesn't blame you, I'm just telling you to be careful in the future."

Xiao Wang: "Oh, I won't do that again in the future."

Lin Lan thought it happened when he was playing with Wangwang. Normally, when he played with the dog, Wangwang would push him down and his body would be covered with dog hair and dirt.

But she felt that Xiaowang was a little depressed, "Child, did anyone bully you when you were playing outside?"

Xiao Wang shook his head, "No."

"Did anyone touch you?"

Xiao Wang: "Yes, a lot."

Lin Lan became nervous, "Where should I touch you?"

Xiao Wang pointed to his head and face and said, "Mom, my hair is all bald."

Lin Lan touched him lovingly and said, "I'll talk to them and tell them not to touch my child's head in the future." Xiaowang was clean and pretty, and when adults saw him they would like to say, "Look at this child, so handsome and well-behaved," and then touch his head.

Their hands, which are rough and hard from doing rough work, are likely to damage the children's heads.

Lin Lan decided to emphasize during the next promotion that no one is allowed to touch Xiaowang's head.

Xiao Wang immediately rubbed her and said, "Only let mommy touch you."

Lin Lan touched it carefully, but was afraid that if she touched it too much, she would touch less of the hair, which would be troublesome.

I still remember when Wangwang was little, the children petted the dog all day long, and the puppy became bald, which was a horrible sight.

Of course, it is also because it is molting.

Lin Lan also taught Xiaowang some knowledge about physiology and hygiene, such as not letting others touch his penis or kiss it casually, especially those naughty teenagers who are ignorant and curious and can easily do extreme things.

Xiaowang listened carefully.

Lin Lan even composed a nursery rhyme that she vaguely remembered and sang it to Xiao Wang: "...Shorts and a vest protect your body, others are not allowed to touch! Say no loudly!..."

Xiaowang can sing after learning it once, and his baby voice is very nice to listen to.

Lin Lan told him again: "The little JJ is where you pee. You can't let others touch it, and you can't touch it either. You have to wash it with clean water every day. If a bug gets into it, your little JJ will hurt..."

Xiaowang listened carefully, "Little JJ, bugs are pecking at him and he can't see clearly." He also pointed to his own eyes, saying that little JJ's eyes were pecked by bugs and he couldn't see clearly and it hurt.

Lin Lan praised him: "You are so good. I will let the other kids listen to you in the future."

At noon, when the children came back for lunch, Lin Lan quietly asked Mai Sui and Er Wang, "Is Xiao Wang unhappy in class today?"

They both shook their heads. "Very good, what happened? He was very happy when Teacher Huo led him. Then Teacher Huo went to study and he played by himself."

Lin Lan: “No problem.”

She then asked Sanwang, "Sanwang, has anyone bullied your brother?"

Sanwang: "No, I'm here, who dares to bully him!"

Lin Lan smiled and said, "He really looks like a brother."

When Lin Lan asked this, they realized that Xiaowang was particularly depressed today. He sat quietly aside fiddling with his harmonica and didn't play it anymore.

They were all a little puzzled, "Xiao Wang, what's wrong?"

Xiao Wang shook his head, "No."

Sanwang rolled up his sleeves and said, "Tell me who bullied you and I'll beat him up!" As he was about to go out, he was brought back by Dawang.

After dinner, the children went to school. Seeing that Xiaowang was a little depressed, Lin Lan took him with her and went to find Dong Huaihua together.

Han Qingsong did not come back for dinner in the evening and did not get home until eight o'clock.

"You're so busy today." Lin Lan heated up the meal for him.

Han Qingsong, however, seemed to have done something great, and said with a relaxed expression, "Come with me tomorrow."

"Why do you bring me along when you're investigating a case?" Lin Lan was puzzled.

Han Qingsong: "Just go."

Are you still keeping me in suspense? Lin Lan didn't force him to speak, and just agreed.

The next morning, she told Mai Sui to take good care of Xiao Wang, and she followed Han Qingsong out.

It took a long time to get there by bike.

A brigade under the Beicheng Commune was dozens of miles away from their home.

Han Qingsong said: "There is a doctor named Xu in their brigade."

The Xu family has been practicing medicine for generations. It is said that their ancestor was a doctor of some kind and was very good at gynecology.

The old Chinese doctor suffered a lot in the past few years and has a lame leg. Now his hair and beard are snow-white. He is very thin but in good spirits, and his eyes are bright.

Lin Lan has always had a reverent attitude towards traditional culture, so since she was already there, she naturally went to take a look, listened carefully to the doctor's instructions, and paid for the prescription.

There were no medicinal herbs available, not in the communes or even in the county towns; one had to go to the big cities to get them.

During the campaign to destroy the four olds, local traditional Chinese medicine was also hit hard. Some ignorant people combined it with witchcraft, fortune-telling and the like and banned it across the board.

The situation is not that serious now, and barefoot doctors are being trained in the countryside, so they can resume their work.

Han Qingsong also found out about it with great difficulty.

Lin Lan thought that Liu Xiuyun's body needed more care, so she asked about it. Doctor Xu said that it was still necessary to observe, smell, ask and palpate the patient before prescribing the right medicine.

Lin Lan wanted to turn around and ask Liu Xiuyun to come and take a look as well.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but it felt slow when I went there, but it was actually much faster when I came back. I got home at around 3:30.

Han Qingsong still had to go to the commune, so Lin Lan got off at the entrance of the village and went home first.

As soon as she entered the village, she heard crying and the sharp sounds of a woman beating and scolding. Whose family is this? She beats her child all day long and makes him walk on the street.

Just as I was opening the door, the voice was already approaching, "Lin Lan, you are still in the publicity business, how do you teach your children!"

Liu Chunfang, with a fierce look on his face, was walking towards her, dragging a young boy with him.

Yep, little white flower also has a shrewish side.

Lin Lan: "What the hell are you talking about?"

Liu Chunfang was so angry that her eyes turned red. "Look, look at what we got beaten up by Ironhead!"

She pushed her son forward and said, "Take a good look."

Lin Lan's face darkened: "You are not sick, I just got home, when did I beat your son?"

Liu Chunfang began to wipe away tears: "You didn't hit him, you asked your Da Wang to hit him. How could your Da Wang be so bad? He wanted to kill people at such a young age..."

"Shut up!" Lin Lan roared, "If you want to go crazy, then go crazy. But you want to slander others for no reason. You deserve a beating, do you know that?"

Liu Chunfang was frightened by her and started to hiccup.

At this time, one of the women who were watching the excitement shouted, "Da Wang and Tie Tou are fighting. My goodness, Tie Tou is two years older and half a head taller, but he was beaten to the ground by Da Wang."

"Da Wang also needs to be disciplined. He always looks down on others and has no manners. He either beats this or scolds that." Zhao Guilian also joined in the fun.

Lin Lan frowned and glared back, "Da Wang goes to school every day and doesn't dare to skip school. Did he hit you or scold you? Tell me when and where!"

The woman rolled her eyes but didn't dare to yell at her. Everyone knew that Lin Lan was a well-known bully in the village. Not only could she beat and scold people, but she also had a husband who was a director to protect her. Now she was doing publicity, so many people admired her.

Liu Chunfang started crying: "Anyway, Da Wang beat us up, and many people were watching. Look, his mouth is broken, his nose is broken, his nose is crooked, and his forehead is broken... wuwu."

Lin Lan took a look at Tietou and it was indeed a horrible sight. Tietou was beaten into a pig's head and... that big bump on his head was too eye-catching.

Da Wang, this naughty kid, hasn't fought for a long time, at least he hasn't fought since he went to school.

Why are you fighting again today?

She always stressed to him that even if he had conflicts with others, he had to be reasonable. If the other party was unreasonable, he should ask the teacher or the cadres to mediate, and he should not hit others.

She asked Tietou, "Boy, why did Dawang hit you?"

Tietou started crying and said that Dawang beat him for no reason.

Liu Chunfang said bitterly: "What can happen? Your Dawang is always trying to be the overlord and doesn't like anyone. It's just that our Tietou doesn't want to listen to his orders!"

Lin Lan raised her eyebrows, "I don't think so. Although our Da Wang likes to be the leader of the children, he doesn't like every child."

After she said this, several women's children present had been subdued by Da Wang a long time ago, and now they followed Da Wang's lead. For some reason, they suddenly felt a surge of pride.

It seemed like being noticed by Da Wang was a great thing, and I felt very proud!

Liu Chunfang was so angry that she accused Lin Lan of making trouble.

Lin Lan said impatiently: "Come on, explain it clearly, Tietou, tell me the truth, why did Dawang hit you?"

Seeing that Tietou was still reluctant to speak, she immediately said, "I have a dime here. I'll give it to you if you tell the truth."

Tietou was immediately attracted.

Liu Chunfang scolded: "You are bribing and deceiving a child."

Tietou snatched the money and said quickly, "Lantou hit Xiaowang and broke Xiaowang's harmonica by stuffing it with mud. When Dawang found out, he wanted to beat him. He also said that Lantou was too young and that it was the brother who didn't take good care of his younger brother, so he beat me. Wuwuwu~~ I am so wronged. Lantou didn't listen to me, so why did he beat me?"

Liu Chunfang pointed at him and said, "You, you little bastard, you are talking nonsense for a dime."

Lin Lan said coldly: "Liu Chunfang, you come here to accuse me without knowing the truth. Now I am not done with you. I was wondering why my Xiaowang has been listless these past two days. I wonder if you guys are bullying him with hammers."

She grabbed Liu Chunfang's wrist and said, "Let's go and ask the captain for justice."

This kind of thing is usually dealt with by the director of public security and the director of women's affairs, but she has a good relationship with them, so Liu Chunfang must be dissatisfied.

Then find the captain.

The captain was listening to the radio with others at Han Yongfang's house. When he heard that they wanted him to judge the case, he took off the whip tied around his waist.

Han Yongfang waved her hands, "That's enough for you, but don't use the whip for everything."

The captain said, "I am just waving the whip for a bit. It is you who whips people every time, isn't it?"

Han Yongfang: "...you should leave quickly."

Lin Lan dragged Liu Chunfang, and Liu Chunfang cried loudly, accusing Lin Lan of bullying.

Lin Lan said, "Originally, when children fight, adults should not get involved. Who knows if they will fight today and make up tomorrow? But I will not let you guys off for bullying my Xiao Wang'er. Xiao Wang is a quiet man, and he never fights. He never complains when he is bullied. You guys are perfect. You beat us up, and you come here to ask for punishment!"

Some were so excited that they immediately ran to school and told the teacher the news.

Han Qingping was teaching a class. When he heard that the children would read the texts by themselves from now on, he took Da Wang and Xiao Wang with him.

Sanwang watched and naturally didn't want to be left behind, so he immediately told his second brother and second sister, and several children ran out together.

Han Qingping saw them all running out and said, "You have nothing to do. Go to class."

Sanwang: "How come nothing happened? I hit him with a hammer!"

Han Qingping: "...Okay, you guys come together."

They all went to the street. It was not the workers' or farmers' leisure time at this time, so the members of the commune all came to watch the fun, surrounding them in three layers.

"Get the hell out of my way! Stand on the sides. Why are you blocking the street?" The captain waved his whip and the members immediately moved out of the way, moving to both sides of the road and leaving the middle as a stage for the person involved.

At this moment, Liu Chunfang could only wipe her tears and cry, looking like a fragile victim, and she was determined to highlight Lin Lan's image as a shrew.

Soon, Da Wang and Xiao Wang followed Han Qingping over, and Hammer and a few other children were also brought over.

Shanzui Village is not small, with several hundred households. The huge village is divided into several parts.

Not only are there close or distant relationships among the members, but the children also naturally have good and bad play styles, and they all form groups.

Because of personal grudges, the relationship between Zhao Guixiang, Zhao Guilian, Liu Chunfang and other families and the Lin Lan family is very ordinary, or even hostile.

The captain cracked his whip and the truth came out, and no one was not afraid. Especially since Ironhead and Hammer were both children, and there were other children involved, so they confessed without any effort.

Hammer is about the same age as Sanwang, and he usually takes a group of kids of the same age with him. They don't go to school, and they don't work because they are young. They just wander around and cause trouble for others.

Either they pull out someone's radishes or kick someone's cabbage, or they beat other people's chickens and bully other people's children.

Xiaowang looked very different because he was good-looking, dressed neatly, wore glasses and played a musical instrument. They were curious at first, but then they heard from their family members that he was a little fool, and they began to despise him.

Besides, other children, especially little girls, like Xiaowang and love to play with him. They can’t stand the hammer and will join in making trouble.

The kids didn't want to play with Hammer and his friends, so Hammer got even angrier and thought it was Xiaowang's fault. He discredited Xiaowang because he was too clean, and thought he was fake and a member of the Cities because he played the harmonica.

They blocked Xiaowang and pushed him to the ground, snatched his harmonica and poured sand into it, and threatened Xiaowang not to tell on him, or else they would tie up his penis and not allow him to pee.

Children usually say that anyone who goes to adults to complain is a bad element and will be shaved head, stripped of pants and paraded through the streets.

Xiaowang was more stubborn than other children. He was determined not to complain and he would not. Even when he was beaten by them, he did not beg for mercy or cry, and he just avoided them from then on.

But they refused to give up and enjoyed it all day long, searching for Xiaowang everywhere, wanting to bully him whenever they saw him.

As a result, Lin Lan found something wrong and asked the children, but they didn't know. Da Wang asked Zhuzi and others to find out.

It didn't take long to find out.

Then Da Wang went to settle the score with Hammer.

But even though Hammer was a naughty kid, he was only six or seven years old after all. He was no match for him and was knocked over with just one kick.

He didn't want to bully the little kid, so he went to find Hammer's brother Ironhead.

"Your brother hit my brother, so as an older brother I will hit you!"

When his younger brother made a mistake, his older brother took the beating for him, and he thought there was nothing wrong with that.

Tietou relied on the fact that he was taller and stronger than Dawang, so he naturally felt unwilling to accept the defeat, and the two children started fighting.

Da Wang was brave and fierce, and was not afraid of pain. Later, he was trained by Han Qingsong, and learned new moves and methods of fighting. How could a mere Iron Head be a match for the brave and resourceful Da Wang?

Not only did he beat the iron man so hard that his nose and face were bruised and swollen, but he also looked at the man's head and asked, "Is your head really made of iron? Let me try it and see?"

He picked up a stone and was about to hit Tietou, which scared him so much that he screamed. Finally, Dawang threw the stone away, grabbed Tietou's head, and banged it against his own head.

A big bump appeared on Tietou's forehead at that time.

Da Wang even sneered contemptuously, "What a piece of iron! It's almost like a piss pot!"

After knowing the whole process, Liu Chunfang cried even harder. Her son's head was called a urinal. If Lin Lan didn't teach her this, then who did?

Others also found it funny.

The Zhao Guixiang sisters who were watching the excitement in the crowd did not expect that they would be humiliated just for watching the excitement. They were so angry that they were shaking, and they kept saying that Lin Lan was bullying others by abusing her power.

The captain pointed at Liu Chunfang and the others and said, "Look at you, you're busy with these trivial things all day long. Can't you do something serious? Lin Lan is busy with publicity, so how can she have time to take care of this? And you——"

He pointed to the hammer.

Hammer was so scared that he cried loudly, fearing that he would be whipped.

The captain: "Why are you crying? Weren't you afraid when you bullied Xiaowang?"

Hammer said aggrievedly: "Xiao Wang won't complain."

He was kicked by Da Wang and he walks with a limp.

Sanwang spat at him, "I will beat you up every time I see you from now on!"

Hammer was very aggrieved, "I was just teasing Xiaowang."

"Well, we'll tease you when we see you next time. Just wait!"

Hammer was so scared that he cried even louder.

The captain acted as a peacemaker.

Lin Lan didn't want to let him off easily, "Hammer, do you know what it would be like if you tied up your little JJ?"

Hammer had a tearful face, sobbed, and nodded.

"In Guojia Village to the west, there were two sisters who were annoyed that their brother always peed on the bed, so they tied up his penis with a string. As a result, the brother suffocated to death. You have heard about this incident." Lin Lan said angrily.

This matter also spread to their village. Everyone heard about it and added a lot of extra details.

Naturally, children have also been frightened by adults.

Lin Lan saw that Hammer dared to use this to scare Xiaowang, which showed that they really had thought about it. Children are ignorant, the most ignorant and the most cruel, and they don't know the serious consequences at all.

If they are not taught a lesson, they won't change!

Lin Lan said coldly: "It's okay for children to fight. Children are ignorant and there's nothing wrong with them correcting their mistakes. But my child's harmonica was damaged, so he has to pay for it!"

The captain nodded and said, "You should pay for it."

Liu Chunfang's eyes filled with tears. "Why should we be compensated? Our money didn't come from the wind."

Lin Lan said coldly, "This harmonica costs 48 cents, but it takes time to go back and forth to the county by bike, so you have to pay me at least two dollars. If you pay me less, I won't settle with you."

Two yuan was enough to relieve Liu Chunfang of the pain. She would hit him with a hammer, and the hammer would learn its lesson.

Liu Chunfang sat on the ground crying, "You bully me, you bully me..."

Others also whispered to each other, thinking that Lin Lan was asking for too much and was trying to cheat.

"You already have a bicycle, why don't you go buy another one yourself." someone muttered.
