Chapter 425 Torture
"Xiao He, please arrange another car here. I want to go to the construction team to take a look." Dai Jiancun slammed the door and walked downstairs with a depressed feeling.
The secretary standing downstairs quickly agreed and turned out to find a car.
The aunt who had just opened the door and returned to the kitchen to turn off the fire came out wiping her hands, looked at Dai Jiancun who was coming downstairs, and asked in a low voice, "Secretary, my wife asked me to prepare chicken before she went out this morning. Um, are you going to make it tonight?"
"Let's stew it. I'm going to get Baozhu now and will be back soon." Dai Jiancun answered promptly and confidently.
"Okay, Secretary." Auntie poured Dai Jiancun a glass of water and then hid back in the kitchen.
Secretary He went to the office and explained the reason. He quickly borrowed the secretary's car and urged the driver to step on the accelerator to rush to the compound, pick up Dai Jiancun, and rush to the construction team.
Wu Jiesheng looked at the results of the day and patted the transcripts with satisfaction. He took the stack of papers to the small warehouse where Mrs. Zhuang was held in solitary confinement.
Old Mrs. Zhuang is old and has not eaten or drunk anything for a day. She looks haggard. She leans weakly against the earthen wall and does not react at all when she hears the door open. She still looks like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
Wu Juesheng sat down directly on the doorstep and threw the stack of papers at Old Lady Zhuang, "Do you know what this is?"
Old Mrs. Zhuang raised her eyes and glanced at him, then smiled silently and sarcastically, not caring at all.
"Do you want to know what they said?" Wu Jiesheng handed the transcript to the policeman and asked him to keep it, then continued to chat with Mrs. Zhuang in a good mood.
Old Mrs. Zhuang simply closed her eyes and ignored what he wanted to do.
"Since you are so uncooperative, I can only go find your eldest son. I heard from the villagers that you like your eldest son the most. I guess you would not hide anything from him, so he should know a lot of things. But I also heard that your eldest son always quarrels with you. It seems that you and your mother have different opinions. So, if I tell him this, as long as he provides more evidence, we can help him reform you as a mother, do you think he will be tempted?" Wu Jiesheng didn't care about Mrs. Zhuang's frown. If the old woman didn't cooperate, she would be the one to suffer in the future. Now it's not like the beginning when there was no evidence. He didn't believe that he couldn't get anything out of her.
Old Mrs. Zhuang also said nothing.
Wu Juesheng stood up and was about to turn around when he turned back and said, "By the way, I heard there is a golden nanmu on the beam of your house. It's really amazing. Nowadays, you can grow this kind of precious wood by farming. Nanmu is not produced in our area. Where did you steal this thing from?"
Robbing? Wu Juesheng had just given them the final stamp of approval! Although Mrs. Zhuang did not respond, her hands at her side clenched subconsciously. That piece of wood was the last fortune she left for her eldest brother. Now the policeman said that they had robbed it. Was the subtext that they were going to take it away?
"Don't tell me, we know that you are such a heartless person. Aren't you afraid of having nightmares at night when you rob others' things?" Or are you fearless because you are evil? It doesn't matter. In this land, all evil people cannot escape the control of the country!
Wu Jiesheng strode away. Old Mrs. Zhuang opened her eyes and watched the afterglow of the setting sun disappear the moment the door closed. She suddenly had the urge to accept her fate.
But no, whether it was admitting the mistakes she made in the past or losing the only property left in the house, she couldn't accept it. Would she accept the punishment that came decades later? What a joke, Mrs. Zhuang was a woman, but she could follow her husband to this day. Was she someone who could easily accept her fate?
But it was meaningless for her to refuse to accept her fate. Zhuang Shouren was not brave enough. Although he only had a vague understanding of many things, he still said a lot.
Although Zhuang Shouren was not the main instigator of the harm to the educated youth, as the team leader, he knew everything that happened in the team. Several educated youth died at once, and Zhuang Shouren was so scared that he dared not sleep at night, fearing that the truth would be revealed and he, the team leader, would be blamed.
Now the police were asking questions. Although Zhuang Shouren was not present at the scene in person, he told them everything he knew.
For example, those rebellious educated youth had conflicts with the villagers.
When the educated youth first went to the countryside, the work process was not yet standardized. Although the government would allocate funds to the educated youth as a buffer, the money had already gone into the brigade's pocket, so how could it be taken out again?
But the educated youth who knew about this money were definitely not happy. They wanted to fight for their own interests, but ended up being severely beaten up by the young and middle-aged people in the village.
After suffering a hardship, everyone calmed down temporarily. But the educated youth could not stand the hardship of labor, and went to the brigade again half a month later to make trouble. Zhuang Shouren was really troubled, so he gave each of the educated youth a bag of last year's sweet potatoes to fool them temporarily.
Seeing that the villagers were not happy, why should they distribute food to the educated youth? These lazy useless people, who could only ask for money and food from the brigade when they were hungry, did not have such treatment even for the local people, so why should they enjoy it? So he did not sleep at night, went to the broken thatched hut and beat the educated youth again.
It was unfortunate that there was an educated youth who was in poor health. He had not eaten enough for a long time and was weak and exhausted. In addition, he was severely beaten and did not survive the night and died.
This time, they had stirred up a hornet's nest. The educated youth were shocked and angry, and they completely started a conflict with the villagers.
Some people even went to the commune's Youth League Office to report villagers for killing people.
At that time, the Youth League Office had just been established and it was staffed by a group of young people with little work experience. When they heard that someone had died, they were terrified and called the police directly to let them handle the matter.
The police went to the Construction Brigade to investigate. Because the person who beat Wang Hongqi the most was his brother, Dai Jiancun passed the message on. In the end, the police concluded that the educated youth had died accidentally and closed the case hastily.
The educated youth only realized their predicament at this time, but from the moment they called the police, they had already made enemies with the brigade. They were in a dilemma and could only grit their teeth and live in the construction brigade.
During this period, the brigade assigned all dirty, hard, and tiring work to the educated youth, regardless of whether they could do it or not. If they didn't do it, they would not get any work points. They also made fun of them.
The villagers restricted them from going out, and they kept a close watch on the educated youth, stared at them, and tortured them.
The incident of forcibly abducting female educated youth suddenly happened at that time.
The first female educated youth was dragged into the mountains and raped by villagers, and then she banged her head against the doorpost of the brigade headquarters and died.
But do you think the villagers would have any scruples? No, they didn’t regard the educated youth as human beings at all, so they didn’t care about their life or death.
