Chapter 262: The Weak Sister of the Heroine in the Period Novel (8)
Director Ma took away Secretary Niu's family and Donkey's mother.
You can only know the right and wrong after a trial.
Secretary Niu's energy was drained away in an instant, and only now did he figure out everything.
If no one had reported it, the higher-ups wouldn't have known so much, and the guy who stored the grain wouldn't have been stupid enough to confess everything himself.
Everything was caused by Gu Zhiqing.
It turns out that you can't underestimate any woman, especially those who look weak, because they have a crueler heart!
He actually wants to destroy his family!
But no matter how unwilling they were, there was nothing they could do. Secretary Niu was well aware of the principle that when a wall falls, everyone pushes it down. Their family was finished.
Even as the police car took the people away, the villagers were still in a passionate discussion.
Everyone was smart and gathered around Gu Zhen, asking if she was the one who did it.
Gu Zhen smiled calmly: "Aunties, you are joking. How could I know so many secrets? Yesterday, Niu Cunliang said that his family had no shortage of money. The leader was wondering how a secretary could have any money, so he came to ask me."
"What can I say? I'll just say that the villagers have sharp eyes. Everyone is also wondering why there is a lot of grain produced every year, and the quality is good, but every year they can't eat enough. This is not the first few years. Don't you think so?"
When everyone heard this, they realized that this was the case, but their eyes were sharp and they didn't dare to think about it further.
"Gu Zhiqing is indeed a cultured person. He sees things more deeply than us."
Gu Zhen was not worthy of the title and said modestly, "I only expressed my doubts. The rest was investigated overnight by the leaders and the public security comrades. They are really good at investigating. They can find out everything they find."
"Yes, yes, yes, what kind of people are these leaders? We admire them from the bottom of our hearts."
The topic changed and they began to praise the county leaders.
Gu Zhen smiled slightly and went back to the yard with the educated youth.
.
In the next few days, the police came to the village one after another and took away people who had connections with Secretary Niu's family.
Secretary Niu could not embezzle the brigade's property by himself. He had to use some benefits to win over others to do his work for him.
By the time the village had completely calmed down, New Year's Eve had arrived.
The commune gave compensation to the Niujia Village Brigade. Not only was the grain distributed according to its actual quantity and quality this year, but an extra pig was also slaughtered.
So that the people can have a good and peaceful New Year.
Once Secretary Niu’s property is liquidated, the village will be able to give more compensation.
So the educated youth can have a slightly better New Year’s Eve dinner this year.
Gu Zhen was holding a letter in his hand, which was sent from home. In addition, there was a bed quilt, a few food coupons and meat coupons, and some money that he had saved for who knows how long.
The Gu family lives in the city and has a salary, but the two boys in the eldest brother's family are still growing up, so it's rare for him to favor the youngest daughter so much.
Gu Zhen felt warm in her heart. From the original owner's perspective, she was indeed loved, but because of her weak appearance since childhood, she took away most of the family's attention.
Inevitably, the second sister, the heroine Gu Manman, who is caught in the middle, would feel a little unbalanced.
As for the unclear household affairs, Gu Zhen felt that as long as the heroine didn't offend her, they could just go their separate ways and live their own lives.
Putting aside his thoughts, Gu Zhen lowered his head to read the letter.
She had already replied in a letter, stating that she would not marry Niu Cunliang, and explained in detail the crimes of Secretary Niu's family. She also told the Gu family that Gu Manman had secretly accepted the betrothal gift.
So now in the letter, the two elders of the Gu family scolded Gu Manman harshly, and at the end they told her to take good care of herself, and the family would find a way to get her back to the city.
Gu Zhen put the letter away and immediately wrote back home.
She told her family not to worry, that she was in good health, and not to act rashly about returning to the city. The best thing to do now was to wait and see.
He also took out some money, food coupons, and some money he had saved before, and planned to send them back together.
After thinking about it, I added a sentence at the end: [My nephews are all grown up. My sister-in-law will use these cloth coupons to make some new clothes for the children. I will check them after I return to the city (*^▽^*).]
The eldest sister-in-law is not a talkative person and is honest and dutiful. Normally, the second old lady of the Gu family is partial to her. Although she has complaints in her heart, she will not show her displeasure to the original owner.
After my eldest brother got into trouble, it was not easy to raise two children alone.
Gu Zhen felt that as a sister-in-law, she could no longer indulge her parents' favoritism. At the very least, she had to be nicer to her elder brother, his wife, and two nephews.
I packed up all my belongings and put them together with those of other educated youth, and sent them to the commune after the Chinese New Year to be mailed away.
Gu Zhen was in a good mood. She hummed a progressive tune and went to the yard to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner with everyone.
The pork was divided and used to make dumplings. Because Gu Zhen had "made a contribution", the village chief, who had always been oppressed and unable to stand up, gave her some more offal.
It's also good to wash it and use it for cooking.
The dark clouds hanging over Niujia Village dissipated, and everyone was filled with joy.
Rong Pei is no exception.
He wandered outside the educated youth's yard for a long time, but he couldn't muster up the courage to knock on the door.
It’s not that he is shy, but he is afraid that others will not want to deal with someone of his bad background.
Otherwise forget it, they shouldn’t be short of meat.
Rong Pei tucked the pitiful amount of flesh in his hand behind his back and prepared to turn around and leave.
At this moment, the courtyard door opened. Rong Pei panicked and his eyes met with the smiling Gu Zhen.
"Why are you here? Are you here to see me?" Gu Zhen was stunned.
Rong Pei's face, which had turned purple from the cold, seemed to have darkened in color. He nodded and handed the meat in his hand over: "Take it, don't complain about it being too little, this is all I have."
After saying that, he hung the rope directly on Gu Zhen's hand, "Thank you."
Gu Zhen exclaimed "ah", thinking that it wasn't much, so just take it back and eat it yourself, but the other party had already run away with his long legs.
She scratched her head, went to borrow an egg from the aunt next door, and then went back to put the meat in the kitchen.
"Who gave you the meat? Why don't you keep it for yourself?" Zhang Yue flipped over the thin piece of pork. It was really rare to be willing to give meat away these days.
Gu Zhen casually said it was Rong Pei.
The busy educated youth did not take Wang Shengnan's class background too seriously, because it was not high either.
Zhang Yue shook his head: "Alas, I have seen Niu Cunliang bullying Rong Pei a few times. He made him dig mud with his hands in the middle of winter and forced him to kneel down. Rong Pei refused and was almost beaten to death."
He is a man of pride, and would rather die than bend his legs.
"If they give it to us, we'll take it and send him some food and dumplings in the evening. Gu Zhen said that Rong Pei also testified for her, didn't he?"
Gu Zhen agreed very much. After the few people had the New Year's Eve dinner, she volunteered to pick up a plate of dumplings and a plate of vegetables. After thinking for a while, she wrapped the unused old quilt around her and put it on her back.
While everyone was at home, he quietly went around to the dilapidated yard at the end of the village.
There was no light in the room, and I didn't know if he was asleep.
"Are you at home? Comrade Rong Pei, I'm here to bring you dumplings." Gu Zhen knocked on the door.
There was a cough in the room, and then something fell to the ground.
