At four o'clock in the morning, several dark shadows came from afar, parted at the door of Wei Ci's house, and went back to their respective homes.
Wei Qingfeng came back from the county dressed in black. Seeing that his sister's room was quiet, he knew that she had not gotten up yet. He hissed softly and almost couldn't help crying out in pain.
"Second brother?"
Wei Ci was stunned and lost her grip on the eggs in her hand, nearly dropping them. Wei Qingfeng was so anxious that he waved his hand and rushed to Wei Ci. He grabbed the bag full of eggs and held it in his arms.
"Second brother, are you hurt?"
Wei Ci vaguely smelled a faint smell of blood coming from Wei Qingfeng, and seeing his pale face, she knew that he must have been injured.
Wei Qingfeng saw that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he could only smile awkwardly: "Weren't you asleep already? Why are you up?"
Wei Ci was angry: "What? Do you think I got up at the wrong time?"
"No, no, how could that be! My sister is really hardworking..."
Seeing his sister about to explode, Wei Qingfeng quickly spoke out to comfort her and beg for mercy:
"I was wrong, I was wrong, don't be angry."
"Second brother, didn't you go to the county to send something to your eldest brother? How did you get injured?"
At this point, Wei Qingfeng, who had been cheerfully coaxing his sister, suddenly turned gloomy, and his fists were clenched tightly with veins bulging.
"Aci, there's an incident at the county school."
It should be said that something happened in the county. The string that had been kept taut suddenly broke, and the quiet county town immediately exploded like boiling water.
He had sent a package to his elder brother and was planning to visit the teacher.
Who knew that before entering the school, I saw groups of boys and girls with official armbands on their arms rushing into the school, tying up their former teachers, hanging signs on them, and dragging them out of the school.
Wei Ci paused while applying the medicine. She felt suffocated just thinking about that scene.
"So, what does this have to do with your injury?"
Wei Qingfeng was silent for a while. The young man who was full of vigor and vitality when he left in the morning had become like this after just going to the county. He was silent and cold when he came back.
"Aci, you don't understand. They are so crazy. I even saw some of my classmates in there."
The students who were once full of youth are now full of resentment.
It wasn't until he saw the head teacher who took the best care of him being tied up with a rope and dragged out, and forced to kneel on the ground like a dog, that his complicated mood could be described as fucked.
The reason is ridiculous, having a child out of wedlock? His teacher had a wife in his early years!
"Aci, this country is sick."
The streets were full of arrogant red-sleeved soldiers. He was just going to mail a package, but along the way he witnessed no less than ten house-raiding and parading operations with sign hanging on the walls.
The elderly, adults, children, men, and women were tied up and dragged out of their homes like animals, with insulting signs hanging around their necks. The streets were filled with onlookers, and the excitement and fanaticism on everyone's faces frightened him.
"So, what does this have to do with your injury?"
Wei Ci still wanted to get to the bottom of things, with an expression that said, "Don't try to fool me."
Wei Qingfeng smiled bitterly and could only explain the reason for his injury.
"I saved the teacher."
His head teacher is a strict, old-fashioned but very responsible uncle.
Just because he only had a daughter and no wife, he was reported on false charges.
He saw it and couldn't pretend not to see it. The teacher had been very nice to him before. When he lived in the school dormitory, the teacher took a lot of care of him. So when he saw someone taking the opportunity to make a move on the teacher's daughter, he couldn't help but take action.
Wei Ci rolled her eyes, poked his wound unhappily, and started to mock him:
"Are you stupid? How many people are there? How many people are you? Aren't you afraid of being knocked unconscious and thrown into the river to feed the fish if you try to be a hero?"
Having said this, Wei Ci suddenly paused, turned around to see her second brother's expression, which was so guilty that he didn't dare to look at her, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.
"Where are the people you rescued?"
Wei Qingfeng smiled flatteringly, "Well... their house was raided, and it just so happened that the teacher needed to be sent to a difficult area for ideological transformation. I figured, since we know them, I used a little trick and brought them back to our village. Don't worry, they won't live with us."
It was really a little trick. She just gave him some big goldfish and asked someone to transfer his demoted position to her own village. They were protected here and it was very safe. It allowed the father and daughter to protect themselves. This way, she could repay his kindness in taking care of her.
"Have you ever thought of bringing them over?"
Wei Qingfeng shook his head with an affirmative tone.
"I haven't thought about it."
I really didn't even think about it for a second.
He and Aci both have their own secrets, and he often has to go out in the middle of the night. It is inconvenient to have outsiders at home.
Wei Ci skillfully disinfected and bandaged his wound, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that there was no more bleeding.
When the brother and sister went out, Wei Ci looked at the two embarrassed people at the door.
"Teacher, don't mind me. These are clothes that my father and mother used to wear. They are a little torn, but they are still wearable."
The girl who was protected by the old man poked her head out and looked at the brother and sister, a hint of hatred flashed briefly in her eyes.
Wei Ci looked at the girl and sighed in his heart, she is a very pretty girl, no wonder someone is thinking about her, but the look in the girl's eyes when looking at him doesn't seem friendly.
Wei Ci raised her eyebrows, having a hunch that this woman didn't seem easy to get along with.
What did Wei Qingfeng rescue again?
"Comrade Wei, we don't live here..."
Wei Qingfeng smiled awkwardly. He scratched the back of his head, his handsome face flushed slightly, revealing a sense of silliness.
"Teacher, I'll take you to find the team leader. You should live in the sheep pen..."
"What?! I don't want to live there! Is that a place for people to live?"
She couldn't hear a word her old father said. She was so frightened that the only two big words in her mind were "sheep pen". Her face turned pale with fear.
"Dad, can't we live here? This house is so big that there must be enough space for us. Why do we have to live in the sheep pen?"
How could a girl who grew up being pampered have ever suffered such pain?
Their home was inexplicably vandalized and robbed. Not only were they tied up and dragged out, but their house was also sealed off! In just one day, she lost everything! Now, she and her father really couldn't return home.
"Meng Jiao! Stop talking like that! Have you forgotten why we came here? Who are we to have to live in someone else's house?"
He spoiled his daughter, making her selfish and willful.
Meng Jiao shuddered, and recalled the chaotic day. Her eyes immediately turned red with grievance.
"But I just don't want to live there, Dad. Can we still go back to our own home? Wuwu... I want to go back to my own home..."
