Chapter 12 I don’t know who I’m scolding. …
Only those who have committed crimes are sent to labor camps, and everyone looks down on people in labor camps.
But now as soon as Zhou Xian opened his mouth, two people in their Taohua Brigade were about to be sent to labor camps. The members who were watching the excitement around them fell silent and just looked at Zhou Xian quietly.
Someone muttered, "This girl is really amazing."
They thought Zhou Xian was young and voted for her simply because they had eaten meat.
But now it seems that he still has some skills.
As soon as these words were spoken, Ma Erya was stunned.
Ma Erya was the best at crying in the brigade. She had no rivals in the brigade. When she fought with others and couldn't win, she would sit on the ground and cry. It was so sad that you could smell her tears and listen to them.
Zhou Jiefang looked at his daughter even more, as if he had heard something extraordinary.
He was silent for a while, intending to see what his daughter was going to do.
Sun Meifeng finally put her hands down, but her eyes involuntarily looked towards her mother-in-law.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other and saw disbelief on each other's faces.
Everyone in the team had similar ideas, including the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law. Everyone knew that Zhou Xian's election as the director of the Women's Federation was indeed related to her being able to kill those two wild boars. After all, people are soft-hearted.
Although she was elected, many people still did not take her seriously. They thought that a little girl knew nothing. She was not even married yet, so how could she understand those trivial matters in the family?
Every family's situation is different, and what does an inexperienced girl know?
Now, this young director of the Women's Federation, who was not favored by anyone, did scare Ma Erya as soon as he opened his mouth. However, Sun Meifeng still didn't take it seriously in her heart, thinking that if arranged marriages were not allowed, why wouldn't it be okay for her to beat her own daughter?
Zhou Xian must be trying to scare her. She said she would beat her daughter to death, but that was just what she said in anger. Could she really beat her own daughter to death?
Then it would be a waste of raising him up.
But she couldn't explain it again.
She seemed guilty.
The main thing is that what Zhou Xian said was infuriating. What did she mean by going to the farm for forced labor with her mother-in-law? Why did she have to go to forced labor with that old woman? It wasn't an arranged marriage for her.
Sun Meifeng felt that she was not wrong, and it was her mother-in-law who was wrong. If anyone should go to labor camp, it should be her mother-in-law.
Seeing that no one was talking, Ma Erya immediately became anxious, "How can it be an arranged marriage? I am her biological grandmother, not her step-grandmother, so why can't I decide for her to get married? Besides, I have already agreed with the Tao family that his daughter will marry Jianguo, and Xiaocao will marry the eldest son of the Tao family. How can we change what we have said?"
Sun Meifeng rolled her eyes and responded, "That's right, Mom has already made an agreement with the Tao family, how can I go back on my word?"
Zhou Xian glanced at her and thought that this person was quite shrewd. Now she was putting all the blame on her mother-in-law.
"In other words, this matter was agreed upon between you, Aunt Ma, and the Tao family?"
"Yes, yes, that's it, it's all settled." Seeing that Zhou Xian's attitude had softened, Ma Erya thought she was on her side and nodded immediately.
Zhou Xian turned his head and looked at his biological father Zhou Jiefang, "Dad, you heard it, please find someone to call the militia over."
Her father is the captain of the brigade and also serves as the captain of the brigade militia.
"Why call the militia over?" Zhou Jiefang was a little puzzled.
Others were even more confused and didn't understand why they had to call the militia.
"Didn't Aunt Ma just say that she and the Tao family jointly arranged this marriage? That means your two families are in an arranged marriage. The Tao family is not from our brigade, so it's hard for us to control them, but your family is. Now that you've violated the law, it's natural that someone will come and arrest you and send you to a farm for forced labor."
"Why do we have to go to labor camp?" Ma Erya looked at Zhou Xian in shock.
She felt that Zhou Xian and Director Chen were completely different.
Whenever there was any noise in her house in the past, Director Chen would come over and persuade her in a gentle voice. But when it came to this girl, he kept telling her to go to labor camp.
Ma Erya stiffened her neck and said, "Don't try to scare me. I'm not afraid."
"Why would I scare you, Dad? Auntie doesn't believe me. Why don't you talk to her and ask if arranged marriage is illegal?"
"That's true." Zhou Jiefang nodded.
Of course he knew about this. After all, he often went to the commune for meetings and had talked about these things.
However, it is of little use in the countryside, but if you really pursue it, there are too many violations of the law. If those people were really arrested, it is estimated that half of the people in the production team under the commune would be sent to the farm for forced labor.
Usually, unless the situation is too serious, the commune leaders will turn a blind eye.
But if you really have to pursue this matter, then it's not wrong.
Ma Erya didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just stared at Zhou Jiefang. Finally, Sun Meifeng came over and said, "Uncle, she is your daughter, you must speak up for her."
"That's right, she is your own daughter." Ma Erya said quickly. Zhou Xian looked at her and smiled, "Sister-in-law, if you don't believe me, then how about this? When the militia arrives, you can go with me to have a look, okay? See if I am just making up stories to scare you."
The man's legs were very nimble and he really came with the militia.
Seeing the group of people coming, Ma Erya was so scared that her legs went limp and her hands were shaking.
Sun Meifeng didn't dare to speak at this moment, and quietly moved away from her mother-in-law.
I always felt that if I was too close to my mother-in-law, the militia would take her away with me soon.
Whether it was to give herself courage or for some other reason, Ma Erya simply shouted, "I am that girl's grandmother. How is it against the law to let her get married?"
Zhou Jiefang didn't expect that his daughter would be serious about it, but he couldn't say anything in front of everyone.
Zhou Xian ignored the old lady and said directly to the militiamen, "Comrade, this is a new society, and this old lady's thinking is still stuck in the old society. I think she needs to receive ideological education."
While speaking, Zhou Xian also winked at his father.
Zhou Jiefang didn’t really understand it, but he nodded in cooperation.
In this way, two militia comrades held Ma Erya on the left and right.
Ma Erya's legs were so weak from fear that she couldn't even walk and had to be dragged away by the militia.
Zhou Xian glanced at Sun Meifeng and said, "Sister-in-law, I heard that Xiaocao's matter was somewhat related to you. I have to wait for her to come back so that I can ask her in person. If you are involved, you will also be arrested."
It is impossible to send him to labor camp directly. He has to go to a small dark room first. After all, there is a process to go through.
When Zhou Xian left, he looked back at Sun Meifeng, which made her heart almost jump out. As she watched the person walk away, she covered her chest and took two steps back.
"My God, why does this girl arrest people just like that?"
When Director Chen was here, he had lost his temper before, and although he had scolded them all, he had never done what Zhou Xian did, and immediately asked the militia to arrest people.
Sun Meifeng glanced at her daughter Zhou Xiaohua next to her, and seeing her cowardly look, she felt furious.
When she raised her hand, she caught a glimpse of the people who had not gone far away. She seemed to see Zhou Xian in the crowd looking back at her.
Sun Meifeng's hand froze in mid-air, and then she had to go on that day. However, the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. When she finally withdrew her hand, she turned around and poked her daughter on the forehead.
He cursed angrily, "You damn girl."
I don't know who he is scolding.
Ma Erya was locked up in a small dark room. How she will be dealt with depends on the situation of her granddaughter Zhou Xiaocao.
After all, it was the grass that was hurt this time.
The people in the team were also watching. They originally thought that Zhou Xian was so young, and would definitely be bullied as the director of the Women's Federation. After all, when those old ladies cursed, their words were really unpleasant.
Who would have thought that this girl was not a good person either. She caught the man and locked him up in a small dark room.
I heard that he would be sent to labor camp.
Zhou Xian allowed people in the team to talk about it. She intended to make a big deal out of it so as to serve as a warning to others.
Old Lady Ma is the chicken, and the monkey is naturally the people from the Peach Blossom Brigade.
A new official has to start with three things when he takes office, and he always has to start with these three things to let them know that although he is young, he is not easy to fool. Don't compare Director Chen's previous work with hers. Her methods are not gentle.
The most important thing is to tell them that if there is any persecution of female comrades in the team, she will definitely take care of it.
Zhou Xiaocao was sent to the commune clinic for treatment and did not wake up until the afternoon.
The man woke up, but sat on the cart with his legs hugged, not saying a word.
Everyone was originally paying attention to them, and Zhao Chunxia was cursing before she even entered the team. It seemed that she had been cursing all the way, and kept saying that she wanted compensation from the big house.
The eldest son of the wife got married, but it ended up involving her daughter. She couldn't swallow this humiliation.
And her daughter fell down because of Sun Meifeng's pull. So much blood had been lost that the little face looked pale.
Her poor daughter, what a suffering she has endured.
Zhao Chunxia was not a good-tempered person to begin with, but she gave birth to three daughters in one breath, which made her feel a little short-tempered compared to her elder sister-in-law who gave birth to a son as soon as she got married.
But her daughter was injured today. If she didn’t say anything, she would be bullied to death.
So this time, you have to pay compensation no matter what.
She cursed at the top of her voice just to make the matter worse.
"Chunxia, your mother-in-law was taken away by the militia and locked in a small dark room."
Zhao Chunxia: “…”
No, she hadn’t performed yet, so how come her mother-in-law was taken away?
She cursed all the way, just thinking about keeping the advantage in her own hands and letting her mother-in-law give them compensation from the second wife for the sake of her eldest grandson. Who made the family’s money be in the hands of my mother-in-law?
My mother-in-law was put in a small dark room, so what should I do with her compensation?
She cursed all the way for nothing, it was really a big loss for her.
Amid the chatter of everyone, Zhao Chunxia finally learned what happened after she and her husband sent their daughter to the commune clinic.
"Oh my god, this girl is so amazing!" Zhao Chunxia said with emotion.
Before, people only knew her as the lazy girl in the captain's family. But this incident made many people in the team change their views of Zhou Xian.
As soon as she did that, she locked her mother-in-law up in a small dark room, and I heard that she was even sent to a labor camp.
