Wang Yongshun almost lost his balance. Even though it was a remote place, he knew that things were very chaotic outside. He heard that students from some schools would beat their teachers to death when they started making trouble.
The eldest son of the Xu family said that he was studying at a university in the provincial capital. When the riots got serious the year before last, his classes were suspended for a period of time, but he later reluctantly resumed them.
I will graduate next year and will be able to find a job after getting my diploma.
Why was this stall suddenly recognized as the Anti-Rightist Movement
Wang Yongshun was anxious and walked around the room several times before he finally made up his mind and walked out the door. He ran into Li Chunjuan who was rushing back to inform her daughter.
"What are you doing?"
Li Chunjuan was sweating anxiously: "I have to tell Lingling, take Lingling to Xu's house to have a look."
Wang Yongshun wanted to beat this stupid woman to death: "What's the point of taking Lingling to see it?"
Li Chunjuan has always been indecisive, and now she is extremely panicked: "After all, they are relatives, I have to go over and take a look at the situation."
Wang Yongshun was too impatient to talk nonsense with his wife, so he waved his hand and said, "You don't have to go. You can talk to your daughter, but she said she was sick and couldn't go out these few days. I'll go take a look."
Wang Yongshun had a scale in his mind. He thought that the Xu family was a good match before, but now it might not be the case.
The fact that it was labeled as the Anti-Rightist Movement depended on the circumstances. If it was not good, the whole family would be implicated. The Xu family was originally designated as poor peasants, with a good family background. If it was because of the eldest son of the family, they would be transferred to middle peasants or rich peasants...
Wang Yongshun was a little annoyed. What had seemed like a good marriage turned out to be a bit tricky now.
If we cut off contact at this time, it would inevitably make everyone in the team laugh at us. But if we don't do this, what if the other party gets involved with our family? Would that affect Yaozong's entry into the city
Wang Yongshun sighed for a long time before he slipped along the side of the house to Xu's house.
From a distance, he could see a group of people surrounding the Xu family, but he didn't hear any sound of smashing things, so Wang Yongshun was temporarily relieved.
Since nothing was searched, it means it’s not too serious. Maybe it was just a false alarm.
The onlookers seemed to be waiting for someone from the Wang family to come. When they saw Wang Yongshun with a shifty look in the crowd, someone immediately pushed him forward.
Wang Yongshun cursed in his heart those people who just wanted to watch the fun without caring about the consequences. Some of them even came over to talk to him.
Wang Yongshun had no thoughts at the moment, his eyes fixed on the gate of the Xu family.
It didn't take long before a group of people in Zhongshan suits came out. The leader had a pen stuck on his chest and his hair was combed neatly. He looked very imposing.
"Who is this?"
"Don't you know our commune secretary? Zhao Zhichun."
"My goodness, what has the Xu family done wrong? Why is the secretary here?"
"Who knows? But I don't know what's wrong with the eldest son of the Xu family. He was sent down while studying at a good university."
…
Zhao Zhichun walked out of the Xu family's gate, looked around, and made a gesture to signal everyone to be quiet.
"Fellow villagers, Xu Ming, the eldest son of the Xu family, secretly hid foreign books and was anonymously reported. After investigation, it was found that Comrade Xu had problems with his consciousness, so the provincial university expelled Xu Ming. Comrade Xu Ming volunteered to go to the northwest to help the border."
"Although Xu Ming made a mistake, considering that young people still have a chance to reform, we came here to convey relevant information to his family and urge them to make timely progress."
"We are all part of the same collective. We must help each other and not leave behind any comrade who falls behind."
After Zhao Zhichun finished speaking, the people at the scene applauded.
Amid the applause, someone whispered, "What does this mean? Is there anything wrong with the Xu family?"
"You're stupid. You didn't say there was a problem, nor did you say you'd change your class status, so it's fine."
"That's not necessarily true. The secretary is here. Who knows, the second son of the Xu family might lose his job in the future."
"That's true. Even if it's not yellow, it probably won't be able to go up in the future."
Zhao Zhichun came with a group of people, they came in a mighty force and left in a mighty force.
"Hey, why is the Xu family's door closed?"
"What's the matter? Why do I ask you to come in and ask questions?"
"I think the Xu family will have to keep their tail between their legs from now on."
"Where's Yongshun? Wasn't he here just now?"
"And what about Wang Lingling? She's the second boy's future wife, after all. Why don't you come and see her?"
…
Wang Yongshun went home with his head down. He didn't reply to anyone who greeted him on the road. He just kept his head down and didn't look at anyone.
The situation of the Xu family was obviously more serious than he had imagined. Xu Ming was not stupid. He knew he could not come back, so he simply chose the farthest place and said he was going to the border to help, hoping to reverse the situation.
But what happened can never be erased, and it’s the same all over the country now. If the Xu family is sensible, they should cut off ties immediately.
It was expected that the commune leaders came for the same purpose. There was an Anti-Rightist Movement within the commune, and he himself was out of reach. If his family members were sensible, they should have taken the hint from the commune leaders and made up for it after the severance. At least, they had regained their awareness.
pity…
Judging from what Zhao Zhichun said when he came out, it was obvious that the second son of the Xu family disagreed with the severance.
This is a tricky situation. Although the ingredients have not changed, the existing situation is that people in the team will definitely distance themselves from this restaurant...
Wang Yongshun kicked the stone on the ground hard. Now, even if he wanted to, he couldn't admit it!
Their Wang family can no longer have anything to do with this family!
Wang Yongshun walked to the door of his house, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He quietly walked around the back of the house and looked along the extension of the window.
Finally, Wang Yongshun discovered something. He was so furious that he flew back home like a whirlwind.
Wang Yongshun kicked open the door of Wang Lingling's room and roared in a low voice: "Is it you?! Is it you?!"
Wang Lingling sat on the bed, not afraid at all, with a sarcastic smile on her lips: "So what if it's me? I said, I don't want to marry Xu Shuang, I want to marry Zhao Jun."
Wang Yongshun pushed away the stunned Li Chunjuan and walked around the room looking for a stick: "I'm going to beat you to death! What's wrong with you? You have to mess up a good marriage!"
It was the first time that Li Chunjuan saw Wang Yongshun so angry. She was too scared to stop him. Wang Lingling stiffened her neck and said, "I didn't report anything wrong! Doesn't he have any documents from abroad?"
Wang Yongshun: "So you sneaked out through the window and ran outside to report it?"
Wang Lingling: "That's right! I went straight to the town's Revolutionary Committee. They were quick and figured it out in just two days."
Wang Yongshun pointed at Wang Lingling's nose and said, "How could I give birth to such a fool like you! What good can you get from ruining the Xu family? Only good things can come from marrying into their family! Now that you've ruined your marriage, I don't think you can find a good family to marry into in the future!"
Wang Lingling was quite disdainful: "I won't marry anyone, I just want to marry into the Zhao family."
It's just right that her reputation is ruined, and no one will say anything about her being a stepmother.
Fortunately, she pondered and remembered that in her previous life, Xu Shuang's elder brother was involved in an incident and ended up being sent to the cowshed. But it was already 1973, and he would have been able to come back if he had endured another three years. Who knew that his brother's body could not hold up and he died directly in the countryside.
Wang Lingling thought, Xu Ming was going to die sooner or later anyway, so she might as well bring him down this time. This would also help her put an end to her father's idea of marrying her into the Xu family.
I just didn't expect that the Revolutionary Committee would act so quickly and find out everything in two days. However, Xu Ming was different from his previous life. Perhaps this time the matter was not very serious. Xu Ming also took the initiative to apply for border aid, so the impact was not very big.
Wang Lingling still felt a little regretful. Why didn't she ask Xu Shuang to quit her job and go to the bullpen
Originally, after she was reborn, she wanted to bring Wang Ying and Xu Shuang together, but now the situation was urgent and she had no time to make arrangements. She could only achieve her goal in this way of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting herself by eight hundred.
Wang Lingling's stubborn attitude really made Wang Yongshun very angry. After calming down for a while, Wang Yongshun said coldly: "You are dreaming. If you don't marry Xu Shuang, I will ask your mother to find you a commune far away. It's just right for you to marry far away. After a few years in the brigade, no one will say anything."
Wang Lingling was in disbelief. She had already done all this, so why did Wang Yongshun still not agree to her marrying into the Zhao family?!
Wang Yongshun's face was stiff, and he spoke very bluntly: "The Xu family was the best place you could go to. If you look for a job later, you won't be able to find such conditions."
His two daughters were both well-off. To find a job in the city, Wang Yongshun needed at least 400 or 500 yuan. He had saved for a long time and was now just over 100 yuan short. There were only a handful of people in the brigade who could give a 100 yuan dowry. Only those who proposed marriages far away could get this amount.
Wang Yongshun looked at his daughter as if she were a fool. He wanted to ruin a good marriage. He hoped that Wang Lingling would not regret it in the future.
Wang Yongshun dragged Li Chunjuan out of the house and locked Wang Lingling's door.
"Don't call her out before the marriage is settled!"
Wang Yongshun turned around and went back to the house. He was still worrying about how to cover up this matter from the Xu family in a decent manner.
The Xu family's yard consists of three adobe houses and one blue brick house, which can neither be considered good nor bad in the brigade.
Mainly because of Xu Ming's college expenses. Although Xu Shuang's salary has been increasing in recent years, most of it was given to his eldest brother.
However, the two brothers of the Xu family have a good relationship and do not care about each other.
In addition to being a cook, Xu Shuang occasionally takes on weddings and funerals, and goes up the mountain to find some things from time to time. All in all, Old Lady Xu's living standard is definitely upper-middle level in the commune.
But at this moment, there was no longer any loud voice of Old Lady Xu in the Xu family's house, only bursts of wailing.
"How could your brother be like this? I clearly told him to be careful, so why did he ask someone to report it?"
"You too, I told you to break up with your brother, but you refused! Your brother is already in trouble, if something happens to you, how can I live with you?"
"And the girl from the Wang family, if you don't break up the relationship, she might not marry you anyway."
…
Old Mrs. Xu is a straightforward person. She has been very active over the years, but this is the first time she has cried like this.
Xu Shuang was still in a daze, and after a long time, she said in a hoarse voice: "I will send some useful information to my brother after a while."
Old Lady Xu slapped her thigh and said, "He is a stubborn ass, and you are also a stubborn ass! He was so stubborn that he sent himself to the northwest! Are you planning to do the same?!"
Old Mrs. Xu wiped her tears and said, "It's not that I'm cruel, but my family's future situation is going to be bad. You might even lose your job. Although your brother has gone to the border area to help, he's not a relegated official. He'll probably have a hard time, but he'll be able to get by. Don't be stubborn. Just live peacefully for the next six months and we can talk about contacting each other next year."
Xu Shuang hummed and said nothing more.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Old Mrs. Xu hurriedly called out, "Go and open it quickly. It must be the in-laws. Even though something like this happened to our family, they are still willing to come to our house. Remember this!"
Xu Shuang walked to the door and opened it a crack, but did not see anyone.
My eyes moved to the ground and I saw two packages wrapped in old newspapers by the door.
Xu Shuang took the paper bag into the house.
Old Mrs. Xu was still wondering: "Why aren't they relatives?"
Xu Shuang remained silent as she looked at the wild rabbit and black fungus with branches stuck in them wrapped in a paper bag, as well as another bag of things that looked like medicinal herbs.
"It doesn't matter. It's okay if they don't come."
Wang Ying never expected that she had only been up the mountain for half a day, and when she came down the mountain, she heard that something had happened to the Xu family.
Xu Shuang's brother was labeled as an anti-rightist, and everyone in the brigade avoided him as much as possible. But everyone kept talking about the eldest son of the Xu family.
Wang Ying and Xu Shuang didn't have much friendship, but thinking about the last time the other party gave her a rabbit for free, Wang Ying felt that it would be unfair if she didn't show some appreciation at this time.
So she gave Xu Shuang one of her newly hunted rabbits. She was afraid that Xu Shuang would misunderstand that she was going to kill the rabbit with one, so she added some black fungus and some Chinese medicinal herbs she had picked for soothing dryness and replenishing qi, and wrote on the paper package with charcoal how to use them.
Wang Ying placed the things at the door of Xu's house and did not leave until Xu Shuang picked up the things and took them home.
Along the way, Wang Ying couldn't help but sigh at the impermanence of life. Two days ago, she heard her reborn cousin yelling that she would not marry Xu Shuang, and then the Xu family met with misfortune. She guessed that her shrewd uncle would not let her cousin marry into the Xu family.
Hey? Wait!
There's only a difference of two days between the two!
An incredible guess came to Wang Ying's mind. Could it be that her cousin, who had big ideas but was a little stupid, had done something
Otherwise, how could something like this happen to the Xu family
Damn, if this is true, this cousin is really wicked for marrying a potential guy.
Wang Ying rushed home and just as she entered the door, she heard a quarrel coming from Wang Lingling's room. After listening for a while, Wang Ying was speechless. It turned out that it was really this cousin who did it.
This person is so immoral that she is so cruel to change a man.
At the end of the quarrel, Wang Yongshun ordered Wang Lingling to be locked up until the engagement.
However, Wang Ying felt that her uncle really underestimated her daughter.
In order to marry someone and report someone, she would destroy the other person's entire family.
The determination of this reborn cousin is truly as solid as a rock.
Wang Ying felt that this sister would achieve her wish sooner or later.
Sure enough, within three days, a strange thing happened in the team.
Wang Lingling from the Wang family has disappeared.
