Jiang Jun was writing in his work notes and could barely hold the pen.
She felt that the news reports and secret records she had seen in her original time and space were far less shocking than what she heard with her own ears now. She was so upset that she could no longer stay out of it and could not remain calm.
Most of these people wanted to file a complaint, thinking that the Lord of Heaven had come to rescue them. They were filled with grievances and indignation, and could not hide it.
Jiang Jun listened, wrote, and questioned the situation. She couldn't understand why these people, with their knowledge, brains, hands, and feet, didn't report it? Why didn't they band together to resist? Why did they endure it for so long? If she hadn't come here, if she had sat in the town or at the grain management office waiting for them to report, would she and these people have missed out?
If she remembered correctly, it would take about three years for the educated youth to return to the city. She just hoped that these people could return to the city safely, just like she did when she ran back to the capital from Spring City.
What made her most sad was that she could do nothing but ask questions and take notes mechanically.
Even so, these educated youth were very satisfied, and the fatigue from rushing to Jinshatan Village overnight was swept away.
At least, they could see that Jiang Jun was not being perfunctory. The questions he asked them allowed them to vent their resentment and dissatisfaction, as if they saw hope again in despair.
Xiaoqin stood outside Huang Hupo's house, hesitating about how to greet her former friends after going in.
In just over a year, she had already given birth to two children and had completely become a part of Jinshatan Village.
Compared with these young intellectuals who looked bewildered and helpless, the confidence she had wanted to show suddenly became so funny.
Huang Hupo called out to Xiaoqin with a forced smile, "Hey, the village chief's daughter-in-law is here. Wait, I'll get you a chair! Our family is poor, we only have a small stool, otherwise you have to stand."
The people in the room looked outside.
A man standing by the door recognized her: "Xiaoqin? Why are you so thin?"
Wouldn’t you have a good life if you married into the village chief’s family?
He looks even more haggard than before!
Xiaoqin was a little embarrassed: "It's okay, the same as always."
Huang Hupo's revenge: "Xiaoqin gave the village chief two grandchildren, and all the blood in her body was sucked dry. How could she not be thin!"
Xiaoqin suddenly felt ashamed. Having a child was not voluntary and she had no control over it. She got pregnant and her belly was never empty.
These people all met at the educated youth camp. They were not classmates or neighbors of Xiaoqin. No matter how familiar they were with her, they would never have thought that although Xiaoqin had given birth to two children and had a wedding with the village chief's son, in fact, they had not even completed the marriage procedures.
"Xiaoqin, I just heard you were dating, but I didn't expect you'd become a mother!" Wang Caiyun, a young intellectual who had lived with Xiaoqin, ran out, surprised, "Are you not planning on returning to the city?"
Xiaoqin looked at Wang Caiyun, hatred flashing across her eyes. She raised her chin stubbornly, "We have to get married whether we go back to the city or not, right? Once we're married, it doesn't matter where we stay!"
Wang Caiyun said regretfully, "I have been unable to find you. If I hadn't come to Jinshatan Village to meet the working group today, I don't know when we would have been able to meet again."
With this interruption, Xiaoqin finally remembered that she had come here to get information: "Is Deputy Team Leader Jiang here?"
After asking Xiaoqin, she realized that her questions were unnecessary. These people looked so excited and excited, which was a sign of being proud.
What did these people say?
Xiaoqin suddenly lost the courage to step into Huang Hubo's house.
Wang Caiyun hurriedly said, "Here! Xiaoqin, come in quickly. We were just talking about when we first arrived in Jiangling Town. It was cold in the middle of winter, and there weren't enough quilts, so we squeezed together and shared one."
Xiaoqin forced a smile. "I'm not going in to sit down. I just came to ask what Deputy Team Leader Jiang would like to eat for lunch."
Huang Hupo said, "I'm lighting a fire at home and cooking some sweet potato porridge. We'll all eat at my house later. Do you want to come too? Don't think my house is too shabby and you can only drink the thin soup that's so thin you can see your reflection in it!"
Xiaoqin had to rush back to tell him: "You guys eat, I'm going home to cook now."
Jiang Jun heard this from inside the house and asked, "Section Chief Huang, can you add two pounds of dried sweet potatoes? We've been traveling all night, so the porridge needs to be thick!"
Jiang Yun had asked her to cook the porridge, so all she could do was treat everyone to a bowl of porridge.
To be honest, even if she went to the village chief's house, she would definitely not be able to eat. She might even get excited and splash the food on the village chief's face.
Huang Hubo responded: "Okay!"
All the food reserves from her mother's family were taken out. Huang Hupo didn't care what to eat next. After tossing and turning all night, she listened to a heart-opening conversation for the whole morning. She felt more confident in doing anything, as if she would never be afraid of anyone doing evil again.
…
At the home of Village Chief Pi, Pi Laizi collapsed to the ground in fear upon seeing the police in their uniforms. Tears covered his face before he could even open his mouth. “Please, don’t take me to the farm. I don’t want to go to the farm. I didn’t kill anyone. I didn’t push anyone into the water. It wasn’t me. It really wasn’t me. Woohoo~”
The police officer slammed the table and said, "Behave yourself! Let me ask you, what did you do last night?"
Pilaizi cried and trembled: "I didn't kill anyone last night, wuwu~"
The police officer slammed the table again: "I asked you where you were last night!"
Pi Laizi burst into tears again: "Wow, I really didn't kill him!"
Police: “…”
It turned out to be meningitis!
It seems there is no need to ask further!
Let's find someone else to testify.
Mayor Zhou: “!”
Damn, something bad is going to happen!
Village Chief Pi: “!”
Oh my god, something bad has happened!
Qin Xiao stared at Pi Laizi's mouth, which opened and closed. Seeing him repeatedly insisting that he had never killed anyone, he became suspicious. "Then who did it?"
The leper was still crying: "It's not me."
Qin Xiao glanced at Xiao Fang.
Xiao Fang immediately said, "If you tell me who killed him, you don't have to go to the farm."
Well, he is not a policeman, nor a leader, and his words are not trustworthy. He has no say on whether to go to the farm or not. Anyone who believes him is a fool!
Pi Laizi believed it, stopped crying, and looked at the village chief: "Yes, I don't know who killed me, but the village chief knows."
Pi Laowan blushed and scolded, "Watch your mouth, you bastard! The police are asking if you were peeping at girls last night!"
Xiao Fang received Qin Xiao's gaze and immediately asked, "Laizi, who did you kill? If you don't tell me, I'll lock you up on the farm right away!"
Pi Laizi banged his head on the ground and cried loudly: "If I don't tell you, you will lock me up on the farm. The village chief said that if I tell you, you will lock me up on the farm. Wuwu, Fourth Uncle, save me!"
Police: “…”
Is this a patient with meningitis?
How can the logical thinking be so clear!
