A bonfire was lit in the auditorium, and people gathered around it in three layers, gossiping about the Ding family's affairs.
Some old ladies talked about Gao Xiaowen and Liu Xiaoping's identities and the educated youth. Yi Xiaoqiu couldn't stand it anymore.
Besides, the reason they were being talked about was partly because of her, and she couldn't just sit there and watch those old women throw dirty water on other educated youth.
I started arguing with someone for a while.
The small auditorium was in chaos.
"Okay! Quiet!" Fang Qingshan shouted, and people immediately quieted down.
You have to be quiet. If you are not quiet when the captain is speaking, I will write your name in the notebook. Next time you go to work, I will assign you to carry manure and dig manure. You won't even have time to cry.
So at this time, if people were to say who they obeyed the most, it would be the captain who was in charge of the entire company. He was in charge of everything from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. If they did not give face to the captain and offended him, they would be miserable.
"Ding family's envoys, I've made a decision. If you want to spread the news, please think carefully about the reputation of our team and the marriage of our own boys and girls. Don't spread any dirty or smelly words! If I find out who is spreading nonsense outside, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Captain, are we going to drive the Ding family out of this place?"
"More than just expelling him, I think sending him to a labor camp is too light a punishment."
"You don't want to eat raw rice, do you?"
Seeing the topic getting more and more off track, the veins on Fang Qingshan's temples bulged, "Enough! Don't you understand what I mean?"
"Captain, don't worry, we know the seriousness of the matter."
"That's right, my daughter is seeing someone right now! I won't tell anyone about this even if you kill me."
"I'm too embarrassed to tell anyone!"
Everyone expressed their opinions at once, but no one knew what they were thinking in their hearts.
Fang Qingshan glanced around sharply, "Alright, go back home and tell those gossipy old women who didn't come home. If I find out who tells anyone, I'll hand over the responsibility of making compost in the spring. Don't say I didn't give you a chance!"
When everyone heard this, they knew the captain was serious, and the expressions on their faces became much more serious.
"Captain, don't worry, we'll definitely talk to our families about this when we get back."
"Yes, we will never tell."
Fang Qingshan waved his hand to interrupt everyone, "Alright, let's all go back to bed!"
After saying that, he left the auditorium first.
When the others saw the captain leave, they were in no hurry to go back to sleep. Instead, they stayed in the auditorium, gathered around the fire, and shared what they had seen and heard at the Ding family.
Regardless of gender, everyone was talking with saliva flying everywhere.
It's called a lively scene.
After the captain finished speaking, the educated youth left the auditorium early.
Along the way, the atmosphere was a bit depressing and no one spoke.
After arriving at the educated youth point, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.
At the Ding family, Gao Xiaowen took advantage of the chaos to return to his room, locked the door, and ensured that no one could open it.
Captain Qi announced a meeting and the onlookers left.
Lai Cuiying was still crying.
"How can I live like this? It's all because of that bitch!"
Ding Dajiang still had some sense. "Mom, hurry up and pack your things! We'll be sent to labor camp tomorrow. We don't know what it's like over there, so we should take everything with us."
Ding Dali and the other two finally recovered their spirits.
"I'm going to kill that bitch!" Ding Dali rushed out, ready to take the gun.
Ding Dajiang grabbed Ding Dali and said, "That's enough! You're going to be happy if your whole family gets shot, right?"
Ding Dajiang calmed down and thought that they might have been drugged by Gao Xiaowen on purpose. As for Yuan Qian, he had some idea about it.
If the eldest brother hadn't taken his anger out on Gao Xiaowen and abused her, the situation wouldn't have reached this point where both sides suffered losses.
Ding Dajiang felt a little regretful. If he had stopped Gao Xiaowen when he was beaten, would this have happened?
But there is everything in this world except regret.
"I won't let her go just like that! I'm not willing to do that!" Ding Dali had a ferocious look on his face.
"What's there to be unwilling about? If you hadn't always beaten Gao Xiaowen, we wouldn't be where we are today."
"Are you blaming me? You good brothers have teamed up to cheat on me, and I can't vent my anger, right?" Ding Dali felt aggrieved.
Isn't it natural for a man to hit a woman? Gao Xiaowen is too proud to be beaten.
It is true that he cannot be beaten. If he is beaten, the whole family will be buried with him.
Having said this, Ding Dajiang became dejected.
They were indeed wrong to cheat on their elder brother.
"It's all my fault! It's my fault that I'm incompetent and gave birth to five of you brothers who are short and ugly. It's my fault that I'm poor and can't find wives for you." Lai Cuiying burst into tears.
"Mom, how can I blame you for this? You have suffered so much to raise us alone. It's us who are incompetent." Ding Dashu was a filial son. When he heard his mother say this, he immediately became anxious.
"Alright, hurry up and pack up! Don't worry about Gao Xiaowen. If anything happens to her, the captain will definitely not let us go.
"If you do labor reform, you can still live. When the time is up, we'll be released. If you hurt someone, the charges will be even more serious. If you don't want to live, do it yourself and don't drag us into it."
"Brother, can you please stop being impulsive?"
"That's right, you don't want to live, but I still want to live!"
The three brothers all began to attack Ding Dali.
They felt that what the fourth brother said made sense. If it weren't for the fact that their eldest brother always beat Gao Xiaowen, this wouldn't have happened, and the child in their eldest sister-in-law's belly wouldn't be in danger. That child could be the son of one of their brothers, or it could be their own.
They didn't know that Liu Xiaowen was told that she had a miscarriage when she was sent to the health center and it would be difficult for her to get pregnant again.
The women who took her to the clinic knew that the child had lost so much blood, so there was no way he could be safe.
The two women also hated Liu Xiaoping very much. They had just heard that not only did she send her brother-in-law to sleep with Gao Xiaowen, but she also had an affair with other brothers-in-law. They really didn't know what to say.
Anyway, they felt extremely disgusted when they touched Liu Xiaoping. They sent her to the clinic, saw a doctor, and left without any intention of staying with her.
A few of them were kind-hearted enough to brave the cold wind and go to the Ding family to inform them.
They didn't go into the house, but stood in the yard, shouted, and left.
"Lai Cuiying, your daughter-in-law had a miscarriage and will never be able to have children again. She's alone in the clinic now. Please come to the hospital quickly!"
The people in the room looked at each other and said nothing.
Lai Cuizhen had visibly aged several years. "Let me go! Who wants to go with me?"
It’s no wonder that Lai Cuiying suffered such a great blow. The Ding family has already become disgraced, and the whole family is about to face forced labor.
Although the captain did not say how long the sentence would be, judging by the impact they had, it would definitely not be short.
In a word, it would be impossible for her sons to marry again, and she might not have the chance to have grandchildren in her lifetime.
"Mom, I'll go with you." Ding Dajiang felt a little guilty. Regardless of what kind of person Liu Xiaoping was, he was the one who got the medicine back. Besides, the child in her belly might be his.
"Okay, I'll pack up some things first, and you guys should quickly pack up all the valuables."
Lai Cuizhen went back to her room and pocketed all the money in the house.
Sons are important, but money is more important.
