After listening to Lin Lan's words, Yan Yan was suddenly awakened. She exploded, pointed at Liu Wenhu and scolded: "You used to want to take advantage of my family all day long. When we divided the food, you said you didn't have enough to eat, so you came to my house to eat and borrow food. My father is an honest man. I don't believe you are here to take advantage. He also said that brothers have to help each other. He wants to help you, and this is how you help him. You scum, a wolf-hearted thing!"

"Don't even think about occupying my house, or taking a share of my money and food. My mother, my brother and I are still alive. Don't even think about eating up our entire family. We are not a family that has been wiped out!"

Yanyan cried and shouted, she felt an unprecedented courage surging in her body, she didn't want to be used as a blanket, she didn't want to be thrown out like a rag!

This is her home!

She immediately went to the crowd to find her aunt, and she wanted to scold her aunt as well, but her aunt ran away in shame after being beaten. In this kind of situation, if it is a family member who is wiped out, brothers and sisters will come, but if the villagers support it, then sisters are nothing.

Lin Lan led the applause.

Someone shouted, "Well done! You can't kill this scumbag with scolding! Scold him harder, and we'll help you fight later!"

"Yes, look, the old hag dares to hit people again. If she does that again, we will beat her up together!"

Yanyan's accusation frightened Liu Wenhu's family, and they were angry and anxious.

Liu Wenhu yelled at Wu Caixian, "Sister-in-law, how did I treat you two in the past? Is this how you repay us? How could you let Man'er frame a good person like this? If you still want to be a member of my Liu family, you have to speak with conscience. Damn Man'er said such rude things, what do you mean by eating out the family? Your brother and I are still here, how can you say that the family is extinct?"

Wu Caixian was a coward by nature, and she wanted to keep things quiet when she felt threatened by Liu Wenhu. After all, her uncle was already scared, so he probably wouldn't dare to harass her again, nor would he dare to think about taking over the family business.

She hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

Yanyan shouted, "You all are waiting for my father to die, but you are trying to steal things and force my mother to hand over the keys. How dare you say that? Weren't you the one who forced my mother to take the keys? Weren't you and my aunt fighting for things?"

When Wu Caixian was interrupted by her concubine, she was speechless and could only lower her head and wipe her tears.

Seeing Yanyan like this, Lin Lan secretly praised her. She used to look timid and didn't look like a heroine, but now she really is a heroine.

The captain was stunned by Lin Lan. The only person in the village who dared to whip people was Han Yongfang. He didn't expect that Lin Lan would dare to do that.

Oh my god, she is really a fierce... No, a fierce, fierce woman! A fierce, fierce woman!

The captain secretly gave Lin Lan a thumbs up. He inexplicably thought that Lin Lan's whipping posture was also very beautiful. He wondered whether he should give the whip to Lin Lan again and let Lin Lan whip him again?

Liu Wenhu saw that Wu Caixian didn't say anything, but Yanyan suddenly became so sharp and her words touched his heart.

He was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He cursed: "You stupid girl, I am your grandfather. I am here to protect you for your own good. How can you slander me with such confidence? Your father is dead. You are an orphan and a widow. How can you protect yourself? I am protecting you so that others will not be jealous and take advantage of you. What's wrong with that?"

After all, Yanyan was still young and had little experience. She didn't know how to refute him for a moment and was shaking with anger.

He has been pretending to be a good person since his father fell ill. Later, when his father was seriously ill, he told his mother that if his father was not well, she would not be able to take care of him. He asked his father to make up his mind to adopt the son to him and he would take care of the family business.

But my father never agreed.

He just passed away today and he turned ruthless, forcing my mother to hand over the keys, and also scolded my aunt for not going back to her parents' house to steal things.

My aunt said that since you occupy the house, you should give me half of the food.

This is what we call a good relative! This is a family member!

Lin Lan saw Yanyan's eyes were red, but she was speechless. She said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You have separated a long time ago. She has built her own business and has children. Why do you have the right to interfere? Was it you who built the house or did you earn the work points?"

Liu Wenhu: "What does it have to do with you? This is our family affair."

Lin Lan said coldly: "This is a matter for the village now. If you affect public security and the management order of the brigade, the brigade and the Public Security Bureau will have to take care of it. Haha, if brothers separate, they are two families. They can help each other. Don't keep your hands too long, or you will be chopped off!"

Sun Aifeng and Mrs. Wu also helped their sons, "You bitches, mind your own family's affairs and don't mind ours." They were slapped so hard that their faces were still burning.

Lin Lan said to Liu Guifa: "Director Liu, this is a big deal. These people are basically robbing the house. We should arrest them first and wait for the branch secretary to come back for trial."

When Yanyan heard this, she immediately said, "I want to report the case. I'll go to the police station and let them try the case together!" Then she ran out.

"Stop right there, you stupid girl!" Mrs. Wu was so angry that she was shaking. "You, you worthless girl, you still have to rely on your master in the future. If you tell on him, your mother and brother will die too. How can you be so vicious?"

Yanyan said: "I am not as vicious as you. You wanted to rely on my father to support you in your old age, and you always smeared honey on his mouth. Now that my father is gone, you immediately help Liu Wenhu to harm us. You old man, God will strike you to death with lightning!"

Mrs. Wu was so angry that she rolled her eyes and trembled all over. "You, you, you unfilial son of a bitch!"

Yanyan had already run out.

Liu Guifa waved his hand and ordered his village militia to tie up Liu Wenhu and send him to the brigade headquarters to be detained until Han Yongfang returned for interrogation.

He didn't think too much about it. He felt that Liu Wenhu was not a decent person, but he didn't want to sentence him. He just locked him up temporarily so that he couldn't come to Yanyan's house to cause trouble. This way, he could handle the funeral properly, support the orphans and widows, and scare those neighbors and scoundrels with ulterior motives so that they would not dare to attack Wu Caixian.

Sun Aifeng and Mrs. Wu cried for their parents. Their two sons even wanted to rush over to snatch their father away, but they were scared back by the captain's glare. They simply did not have the courage to go against the brigade cadres.

Okura was older and dared to act arrogantly. He pulled his brother to stand behind him and said fiercely: "Hmph, when I grow up, I will stab them all to death! If we don't live well, they won't live well either!"

He especially glared at Lin Lan with hatred.

Dawei: Brother, you, you don’t have to be so harsh, just go ahead.

Liu Guifa had Liu Wenhu taken away, regardless of how Mrs. Wu and Sun Aifeng cried.

After Liu Guifa left, Mrs. Wu sat down on the ground and started howling, crying that her second son had just died and his body was not even cold when the brigade cadres came to bully them and took her eldest son away as well.

Lin Lan: "Stop howling. You let your eldest son eat up the remains of your second son, and you don't think he's a nasty person."

"That's right. People like her need to be made to feel the pain of being eaten up by others."

These were very harsh words, causing Okura to curse loudly, because in order to wipe out the whole family, at least his father had to die.

But Okura was a man who was not good at talking, so he just dared to mutter behind his back, cursing like a rat in the gutter, but he didn't dare to confront him in person.

When Dawei was beaten by Dawang, Dacang said a lot of harsh words at home, such as "Dawei, just wait and see, I will kill Dawang one day to vent your anger", "One day I will go to his house and dig a trap, let his family fall into it as soon as they go out, and smash them to pieces!" "I will go back and tie up their little one and throw him into the ravine to feed the wild dogs!" "And those two stinky women, give them to the old bachelor!"

He said many vicious and cruel words like these, but he didn't even have the courage to go up to Da Wang.

Dawei is tired of hearing this.

When the team leader saw that the troublemaker Liu Wenhu had left, and that the eldest uncle had left, the other neighbors and some poor relatives naturally didn't dare to do anything and quietly slipped away.

Lin Lan shouted, "Whoever took someone else's things, return them immediately, or else it will be treated as burglary and the lighter punishment will be forced labor, or the heavier punishment will be execution!"

Robbery is different from theft. Robbery is like robbery and banditry, and can be shot to death immediately!

Those people's faces changed. Some of them quickly put the things down quietly, and some took them back quickly and threw them quietly at the gate of the yard.

The group that came with Lin Lan shouted, "Wu Caixian, quickly count your things and see if there is anything missing. If there is anything missing, ask the director of public security to check and bring everything back. Is it okay to run away and steal things? We leave the door open every day. Do you dare to sleep in it from now on?"

Wu Caixian thanked people repeatedly.

Wu Caixian didn't expect Lin Lan to speak for her so many times. Thinking back to the time when she followed Mrs. Wu to settle accounts with others, she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

However, Lin Lan didn't pay any attention to that. At that time, she was only paying attention to the Zhao Guixiang sister, and didn't pay any attention to the woman who was waving flags and shouting.

The captain took charge of the funeral procession and said, "There's no need to keep the body for a few days. Hurry up and get dressed. The captain will carry the body out for funeral arrangements tomorrow morning."

People who have just died will have very dirty excretion, so they usually have to be washed, dressed, and have a piece of paper covered on their faces so that they can leave in a dignified manner.

Fortunately, the busy farming season was over and everyone had some free time, so those who were brave enough helped her deal with it. Some people in the countryside did not shy away from this.

Wu Caixian cried until her eyes were swollen like peaches. She wiped her tears and said, "I haven't made the coffin yet. I have nothing to bury the body with. If I bury it like this, wild dogs will dig it up."

At that time, people did not cremate their bodies. They were buried directly in the graveyard after they died. However, the ancestral grave in the village was only for the Han family. The Liu family did not have a so-called ancestral grave. Most people were buried in wasteland or somewhere else after they died. Some people even had no place to bury their bodies, so they were secretly carried to other people's private plots in the middle of the night and buried there.

This can easily be dug out and chewed by a dog or something.

Wu Caixian's family didn't have time to prepare a coffin. At that time, a coffin was not cheap. Some poor families would just roll up an old quilt and bury the dead. Some families who couldn't even afford a quilt would just roll up an old mat and bury the dead. Her family wasn't that poor, but they didn't have any wood to make a coffin. After all, almost everything was collective.

Lin Lan looked at the captain and said, "Captain, isn't there a carpenter in Xuejiahe who specializes in making coffins? Why don't you gather some wood from your home and help them out?"

The orphans and widowers are really pitiful, and they are from the same village, so I can help them if I can.

The team leader called a few people to see if there was any suitable wood in Liu Erhu's house. If not, they would get Wu Caixian's consent to dismantle the two doors and add some random boards to make a thin coffin.

Wu Caixian quickly went to get the money so that someone could help her arrange the matter. She was also busy thanking Lin Lan sincerely.

If Lin Lan hadn't helped, the others would just watch and not say anything fair, not even the brigade officials would care. Now it is estimated that the things in the house have been moved out, and in two days, she and her children will have no food to eat, so she has no choice but to find a way to remarry or give herself to that bastard Liu Wenhu.

Although she was cowardly, she was not stupid. She knew that it was Lin Lan who took the initiative to speak up, and then the others responded to her and the brigade cadres supported her.

She also knew that once the brigade was supported, she would have the hope of staying at home and raising her daughter and son.

"Thank you, Captain Lin." Lin Lan is now the captain of the publicity team. Adults call her Captain, and children like to call her Teacher Lin.

Lin Lan: "Aren't we fellow villagers? We should help."

She did not want to stay any longer. Seeing that a large group of cadres had come forward to support them, she thought that no one would dare to bully the orphans and widows anymore, so she went back first.

She turned her head and saw Caihua in the crowd. She was surprised that she didn't see her a while ago since she and Yanyan were always inseparable.

I heard that they are both in school now. I guess Yanyan took leave to look after her father, and Caihua went to school by herself. She is back from school now.

Seeing Lin Lan looking at her, Caihua gave her a thumbs up.

Lin Lan didn't think much about it. She saw that it was getting late and the children had already gone home from school and would probably be worried if they couldn't see her.

Who knew that just after she took two steps, Dacang came from behind and yelled at Lin Lan, "You bitch, you are meddling in other people's business. You'd better be careful, or you will die someday!"

He lowered his voice so that others could not hear it clearly, but Lin Lan, who had good hearing, could hear it.

She turned around and was about to curse back, but she heard a "pop" sound. She didn't see anything but saw Okura screaming, covering his mouth and howling, and blood soon seeped out from the gaps between his fingers.

At this time, Da Wang walked out of the crowd and gave Da Cang a kick in the center, knocking him to the ground. He was in so much pain that he couldn't even scream.

Da Wang stepped on Da Cang's chest, immobilizing him, and said coldly, "Come on, tell me how you died!"
