Seeing that he was caught in the act, Deng Hao quickly retracted his hand and tried to escape but was surrounded.
"I didn't expect it to be him? We had wrongly accused Sun Gousheng before."
"Why did he destroy our production team's blackboard newspaper? He must have worked hard to come all the way here."
"Of course I can figure it out with my toes. Our production team's blackboard newspaper won first place and became a model for the commune, but their production team came in last and was criticized by the director. All the paintings in their production team were drawn by him, so he must be jealous!"
After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.
In the face of major issues of right and wrong, the villagers of the First Production Team were extremely united and blamed Deng Hao for his mistakes.
Of course the one with the strongest attitude came from Sun Gousheng's mother.
Thanks to the wisdom of the team leader, the real culprit was caught today, otherwise his son would have to take the blame and be ridiculed by the villagers in his own village.
"So it was you, you little bastard, who did it. You look like a decent person, but can't you behave like a human being? Why do you do such despicable things? It's all because of you. The marriage my son had finally arranged has been ruined. It's you who ruined my son. How could you be so bad?!" After saying that, Sun's mother stepped forward and slapped Deng Hao in the face. Not satisfied with just one slap, she slapped a second one.
Many villagers from the first production team came over and surrounded Deng Hao, poking and kicking him from time to time...
When the villagers from the nearby Second Production Brigade saw this, they immediately went back to report to their brigade leader. The brigade leader of the First Production Brigade led their villagers to collectively bully Deng Hao, a villager from the Second Production Brigade.
"This is too much! Is there any justice in this world? Even if their First Production Brigade won the first place in this publicity campaign, they should not bully others like this. Let's go and take a look together." After saying this, the captain of the Second Production Brigade led his men, with ready-made tools in their hands, and rushed to the scene of the incident in a mighty manner.
Huang Yuelan saw that the two groups of people were coming in a mighty force, not only were they carrying farm tools in their hands, but they all looked like they had eaten gunpowder and a war was about to break out.
Seeing this situation, Huang Yuelan quickly pulled her two younger brothers and children aside.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that a war between the two production brigades was about to break out. Moreover, she was a pregnant woman. If she was pushed down or stepped on, it would be quite dangerous.
"What are you doing? Why are you bullying the villagers in our production team? Do you think we are outnumbered?" At this time, the captain of the second production team had already brought more villagers over.
Fan Ming tried his best to stop the villagers from attacking Deng Hao and forbade anyone to hit him, but the villagers were so angry that they couldn't help themselves and pretended not to hear anything.
It didn't stop until the team leader of the second production team arrived.
Team leader Fan Ming said: "The villagers in our production team have never bullied others. What's going on? Why don't you ask him yourself?"
They were all team leaders and usually went to the commune or county town for meetings together, so they were familiar with each other and knew some of the situation. He suppressed his anger and asked Deng Hao, "Deng Hao, tell me what happened and why they attacked you. Don't worry, tell us and we will take care of it for you."
Although so many villagers were speaking for him and the team leader was supporting him, Deng Hao couldn't really stand up, mainly because he was in the wrong, and he was in a big wrong.
Seeing Deng Hao keeping his head down and keeping silent, as if he had made a serious mistake, the captain of the second production team immediately realized that something was wrong.
If he is right, why doesn't he say it when there are so many villagers supporting him?
There is only one reason: he was in the wrong and was too embarrassed to say it.
Deng Hao himself refused to speak, so the villagers of the First Production Brigade took the initiative to speak: "He did such a conscienceless thing. How can he have the nerve to speak? He deliberately destroyed our production brigade's blackboard newspaper and left his handprints on it. How can he have the nerve to quibble now?"
After listening to this, the leader of the second production brigade asked Deng Hao, "Deng Hao, tell us, is this really the case?"
Deng Hao was like a mute. He didn't say a word and just kept his head down.
Seeing this situation, the captain of the second production team immediately knew that he had acquiesced to the fact and was too embarrassed to speak out.
The villagers from the Second Production Brigade, who had been so aggressive just now, had lost a lot of their arrogance at this moment, and there was a lot of shame on their faces.
"Captain Fan, I'm so sorry that such a person appeared in our production team and brought trouble to your production team. I sincerely apologize to you on his behalf. At the same time, I will give him a severe education when I return." The captain of the second brigade knew that this matter could only be minimized. If the matter was reported to the commune and Deng Hao was arrested, then Deng Hao's life would basically be over.
Seeing that the other team leader had apologized sincerely, Fan Ming felt that there was no need for him to be unreasonable. After all, the two of them would have to work together in the future, so there was no need to make the relationship so awkward.
"Okay, since you said so, we won't pursue it anymore today. Let's go and get back to work." Team leader Fan Ming asked all the villagers to work and earn work points, and the matter ended there.
Now that the real culprit has been found, the matter has come to an end. Captain Fan Ming asked Huang Yuelan to erase the previously damaged blackboard and draw a new one.
Deng Hao returned to his production team. Although he was severely criticized by the team leader and looked down upon by his fellow villagers, he knew that this was the best outcome.
If his team leader ignored him and let the villagers of the First Production Brigade deal with him, his situation would be even worse. He would definitely be beaten to death by that group of people.
"Deng Hao, you went and did something bad, and you even left evidence behind and got caught red-handed. You are so stupid! Don't you know that you have a short finger?" The captain of the second production team was really annoyed by Deng Hao's stupidity.
Deng Hao lost his fingers when he was very young, so he had no awareness of this and felt that he was the same as a normal person. Besides, he was just hot-headed at the time and acted on a whim, so he didn't think too much about it.
Regarding the criticism from his team leader, Deng Hao just kept silent and listened with his head down.
"Okay, I won't say much to you. I'm sure you're very sad. But you have to go back and write a self-criticism of at least 10,000 words, and then hand it to me so that I can give an explanation to Captain Fan." said the captain of the second production brigade.
After hearing this, Deng Hao said, "Ten thousand words? Isn't that a bit too much?"
"If you feel more comfortable, you don't have to write it, and then go to Captain Fan and apologize."
Deng Hao, "Not much, not much, I'll go back and write it."
Although a 10,000-word self-criticism is difficult to write, he would rather choose the first option than be punished by the people from the First Production Brigade.
