When Yun Yan heard that Fang Hai actually took the initiative to ask the captain to report to the police, she really admired him.
If I hadn't known what role he played in Li Shuwan's plan, I would probably have thought he was really innocent like everyone else.
Thinking of Li Shuwan, Yun Yan looked around but couldn't find her. She asked Qian Qian who was beside her: "Qian Qian, why didn't I see Li Shuwan? Didn't she hear the news?"
"No, Li Shuwan is not at the educated youth center today. She went to the county town early in the morning to pick up a package from home."
She was smart and cleared herself of the charges early on. The drugs were administered by Fang Hai and the woman was raped by Liu Mazi. Even if the truth was revealed, she had nothing to do with it.
The people at the educated youth camp were really not easy to deal with. Fortunately, I moved out. If I lived with these ruthless people, I would always be worried about whether I would be plotted against.
When Fang Hai said he was going to report it to the police, some villagers worriedly said, "If we report it to the police, our brigade will lose its title of outstanding brigade."
"Yes, if this gets out, our Red Flag Brigade's reputation will be ruined."
When the educated youth present heard Fang Hai say that he would report to the police, everyone felt nervous. If this was reported to the commune, no matter whether Yang Qian was having an affair or it was finally discovered that Fang Hai had framed her, the reputation of the educated youth center would be ruined. All future benefits related to the educated youth, as well as the annual quota for recommendation to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, would be lost.
We can’t report it to the police! This was the thought of everyone present.
Yun Yan also felt that she could not report to the police. After all, she still had to live in the Red Flag Brigade for five years, and it would not do her any good if the Red Flag Brigade had a bad reputation.
Captain Liu Defu was really shocked when he heard Fang Hai say he would report to the police. If the commune knew about this, he, as the captain, would be in big trouble.
He looked at Yang Qian and said, "Yang Zhiqing, do you have any evidence to prove that Fang Zhiqing and Liu Mazi framed you?"
Yang Qian knew that all the evidence was against her and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing her silence, the captain already had an answer in his mind. He turned to Fang Hai and said, "Fang Zhiqing, we all know you're innocent, so there's no need to report this to the police. It's not something you'd be proud of. You're also a member of the Red Flag Brigade, and it wouldn't be good for you if the brigade's reputation were ruined."
Fang Hai thought for a moment and said, "Captain, I can choose not to report it to the police, but Yang Qian must apologize to me in front of everyone."
The purpose of his doing this was to humiliate Yang Qian. This woman had made him lose face in the past, and now he could finally avenge himself.
When Yang Qian heard Fang Hai ask her to apologize to him in front of everyone, she looked at him in disbelief.
Why? Didn't Fang Hai love me very much? How could he bear to treat me like this?
Yang Qian looked into Fang Hai's eyes. There was only hatred in his eyes for her, and no longer the tenderness and love he had before.
Thinking about how he had plotted against her, letting her be defiled by a scoundrel, and now humiliating her in front of so many people, Yang Qian became furious.
"Fang Hai, don't go too far." Yang Qian yelled at him.
"I went too far? Yang Zhiqing, I just want you to remember that if you do something shameless in the future, don't think about putting the blame on others. This is also called going too far." Fang Hai said with a double entendre.
Yang Qian remembered what she had done to break up with Fang Hai, and immediately felt guilty.
The captain didn't want to dwell on the past grudges between the two of them and just wanted to get this matter over with as soon as possible, so he said, "This is natural. Yang Zhiqing, you should apologize to Fang Zhiqing right away."
The captain had spoken, and Yang Qian could only reluctantly apologize to Fang Hai.
"I'm sorry, Fang Zhiqing. I shouldn't have said such nonsense and wrongly accused you. Please forgive me."
Just wait, sooner or later I will let him know the consequences of offending me.
Seeing the captain trying to make a big deal out of a small matter, Mrs. Xu in the crowd immediately started shouting, "Captain, are we just going to let the affair between Yang Zhiqing and Liu Mazi go? There has to be an explanation."
When Liu Defu heard Xu Juhua bring up the matter again, he glared at her fiercely and continued, "It's already happened. For the sake of the Red Flag Brigade's reputation, Yang Zhiqing, you should marry Liu Mazi. That way, it won't be considered an affair."
"I don't agree," Yang Qian immediately objected loudly when she heard the captain ask her to marry Liu Mazi.
How could I marry that scoundrel Liu Mazi? I want to live a good life in the future, how can I marry a country bumpkin?
The team leader frowned and said, "You have two choices now. One is to marry Liu Mazi, and the other is for us to report this to the commune. Then you and Liu Mazi will be criticized. Think it over carefully."
When Liu Mazi heard the team leader say he would report her to the commune and drag her into a struggle session, he immediately started to protest his innocence: "Team leader, she schemed against me. You can't hand me over too."
He had witnessed the scene of criticism and struggle with his own eyes. A few years ago, a man and a woman in the neighboring brigade were caught in bed together. They were dragged through the streets in dishevel and were beaten half to death by a group of people. He still remembers it vividly.
Yang Qian was also afraid when she heard about the struggle session. Was she really going to marry this scoundrel? She was unwilling to accept it! She was unwilling to accept it!
After thinking it over for a while, Yang Qian realized that at this point, marrying Liu Mazi was her only choice. If she chose to report to the commune, all the evidence would point to her seducing Liu Mazi, and she would face even greater punishment.
Liu Mazi and Fang Hai, you two just wait for me. As long as I escape, I will make you regret it sooner or later.
"Captain, I am willing to marry Comrade Liu Yang." Yang Qian said with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, since you and Liu Mazi are in a normal relationship, then what happened today doesn't count as having an affair."
"And you, stop talking nonsense in the future. Especially you, Xu Juhua, if I hear you talking nonsense, don't blame me for being ruthless." The captain said in a serious tone.
Everyone present said in unison: "We understand." After all, it was not a glorious thing. If it got out, it would bring shame to the entire Red Flag Brigade.
The team leader looked at Liu Mazi and Yang Qian and said, "Since you both agree, then find a day to come to the team to get a certificate and get your marriage certificate."
Liu Mazi was extremely happy at this moment. He never thought that he would really marry Yang Qian home. Li Shuwan really did not lie to him.
When Liu Mazi heard the team leader ask him and Yang Qian to get a marriage certificate, he immediately agreed.
Fang Hai felt a sense of absolution when he saw Yang Qian choose to marry a scoundrel like Liu Mazi. Hadn't she dumped him in the first place in order to climb up the social ladder? Now she was marrying a peasant and spending her whole life in the Red Flag Brigade. It was truly heartening.
When Mrs. Xu saw Yun Yan in the crowd, an idea suddenly came to her mind and a malicious smile appeared on her lips.
