Class struggle was still very severe in that era. Even if the people in the village were not so keen on criticism and denunciation, they would still stay away from it.
There were rumors before that Xu Nanxing’s maternal grandfather was from a capitalist family.
The villagers also heard a little about it.
At that time, this rumor came from Huang Meifeng. Her original intention was to use it to suppress Xu Nanxing's arrogance and then use it to threaten the other party to get benefits.
Unexpectedly, Xu Nanxing took the initiative and broke both of his legs.
But the news still spread quietly to the village.
Before the rumor could spread further, it was immediately overshadowed by the more shocking rumor that "Huang Meifeng fell into the toilet at the educated youth camp."
After all, the fact that the female educated youth fell into the toilet and was rescued is indeed more eye-catching and worthy of discussion.
However, some people still heard the rumors about Xu Nanxing's family.
This matter was brought up because Song Liandi pretended to be pitiful to gain sympathy, and it immediately became disadvantageous to Xu Nanxing.
Xu Nanxing was very annoyed. This Yang Laizi was not good at fighting!
People have put the blame on you, don’t you have any ability to fight back?
I originally wanted to sit back and watch them fight each other!
She didn't expect that the onlookers would keep staring at her because the money in her hand was exposed!
The progress of the matter is already very clear, but you don’t care about who actually harmed people. Instead, you care about how much money I have. It’s really weird!
Xu Nanxing wanted to curse in his heart!
After arriving at the educated youth site, the village chief kept his eyes on the nose and his nose on the heart, without saying a word.
Before, I just thought that Yang Laizi had committed a crime, but who knew that the mastermind behind this was actually an educated youth.
Anyway, as long as they are not villagers, they will not have much impact on the village.
If it weren't for the policies and regulations from higher authorities, he wouldn't have wanted to recruit a single educated youth into the village.
These educated youth are not good at work, but they are good at causing trouble.
Let’s not talk about the educated youth who can still get subsidies. For those who don’t get subsidies, the food they are allocated is not enough to eat. Don’t they have to borrow food from the village?
These are all burdens on the village. It would be strange if the villagers had no objections!
Therefore, he was always impatient to get involved in anything involving these educated youth.
Now, no matter whether it is Song Zhiqing or Xu Zhiqing, it doesn’t matter who the responsibility lies with.
As long as it doesn't involve the reputation of the village, he will remain silent, squatting quietly aside, smoking welding smoke quietly.
Ye Beichen also noticed that the people around him were looking at Xu Nanxing with scrutiny. He calmly pulled her behind him and winked at Xie Wentian.
I originally wanted Yang Laizi to identify the person behind this. Regardless of whether there was evidence or not, maybe by blaming each other, we could get more testimony.
But he didn't expect that the little girl's family background was so complicated.
The villagers also found out about it, and now that it has been exposed, they will immediately be put in a passive position because of the public opinion.
We cannot allow the villagers to continue to focus their attention on the little girl. We must immediately take these two people to the public security bureau so that the villagers' metastatic tumor can be transferred.
This matter can only be settled after the results of the interrogation are out.
Xie Wentian understood and immediately stepped forward and said, "Since you two are accusing each other, then both of you should come back to the Public Security Bureau with me! We will naturally give you justice when we get there!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene suddenly became quiet.
The villagers then remembered that there was a public security officer here. It was not their turn to decide what the conclusion of the matter would be. They had to wait and see the results of the public security officer's investigation.
Old Lady Yang was unwilling to accept this and immediately grumbled, "Why are you still arresting my son? It was clearly this woman who ordered him to do this! If you want to arrest someone, arrest her! Don't arrest my son!"
Xie Wentian gave Old Lady Yang a cold look, frightening her so much that she shuddered. He then said, "We'll have to investigate to find out whether he's guilty or not. No matter who instigated it, he's the one who committed the crime, and he has to bear the consequences."
Yang Laizi was dissatisfied and said, "I just said a few words casually. She didn't do anything wrong. Is it really that serious? I'll just stand there and let her beat me up, okay?"
More and more people gathered around and started discussing:
"Yeah! I just said a few words, right? Why should I be taken to the police station? This is too much!"
"That's right, it won't hurt to say a few words, so what's there to be ashamed of?"
"Oh, these educated youth are so hypocritical! I can't even say a few words to them!"
"Where are we? How dare you say that the young lady from the city!"
Those who say these things usually dislike the educated youth, but more often they are driven by hatred of the rich.
Especially after knowing that Xu Nanxing came from a capitalist family, she became even more jealous.
So everything he said was sarcastic.
The educated youth were also implicated and were very angry when they heard this. They immediately started to argue:
"Haha! Anyone who sows discord, slanders, lies, or deceives others during their lifetime will be sent to the hell of tongue-pulling after death. It's okay, keep talking!"
"I was saying that you stole the eggs from Aunt Wang's house last month in the middle of the night."
The man being pointed at immediately jumped up and retorted, "You're talking nonsense! I didn't steal it!"
Aunt Wang started cursing, "Oh my god! It was you. I was wondering why one of my eggs was missing for no apparent reason a few days ago. It turns out you sneaked into my house in the middle of the night and stole it! You bastard, why did you steal my eggs? I'll beat you to death!"
"I didn't! He's just talking nonsense!"
The two provoked parties immediately ran away chasing each other.
Other villagers: ...
The educated youth continued:
"If we can say whatever we want without being held accountable, then we'll really say whatever we want!"
"Right! Then I'll tell you one too! I said you were a reactionary, but I was just saying it casually. It depends on whether the Revolutionary Committee takes it seriously!"
When these words were spoken, the villagers were shocked. They still remembered vividly how the Revolutionary Committee had arrested people, criticized them, and confiscated their homes.
They don't want to have anything to do with the Revolutionary Committee!
The people who had spoken before were immediately frightened and ran to hide at the back of the crowd.
These educated youth were so combative that the villagers were speechless.
Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Song Liandi forced herself to remain calm and said, "This matter truly has nothing to do with me! Yang Laizi targeted Xu Zhiqing because Huang Zhiqing mentioned that Xu Zhiqing's family was wealthy. That's why someone like Yang Laizi, who is obsessed with money, targeted her! Although Xu Zhiqing's family was so special that she was framed by someone like Yang Laizi, I don't blame her! She couldn't choose her own background, and she couldn't escape the schemes of someone like Yang Laizi!"
Song Liandi's words not only cleared herself, but also once again brought Xu Nanxing to the center of public opinion.
Xiaotian suddenly ran out, pointed at Song Liandi and said, "You've been going into the woods with that Yang Laizi. I've seen you many times. How can you say you have nothing to do with each other?"
As soon as the words came out, the crowd was in an uproar.
