The train driver in the courtyard

On the grinding field.

Seeing that Wei Zhuang was about to run out of enamel jars and hot water bottles.

The two little-footed old ladies from the Huang family walked out of the crowd.

"Wei Yangwa, now you can eat from the big pot.

Everyone is a collective.

We all handed over the pots, pans, and ladles to the father, and we were all considered a family.

These thermos bottles and enamel jars should be given to our Huang family! "

Seeing the little-footed old lady from the Huang family jumping out again, the onlookers expressed disdain.

Wei Dazhu was particularly grateful to Li Aiguo ever since he learned that Li Aiguo had hunted the wild wolf with his own hands.

And he himself has a cheerful temperament, and Li Aiguo likes to deal with this kind of people.

After spending most of the day together, the two became friends, and Wei Dazhu almost took on the role of guide.

Wei Dazhu introduced: "Village Chief Wei used to be the sheepherder of Huang Landlord's family. He had been herding sheep for more than ten years and lived and ate in the sheep pen, so the villagers gave him a nickname, Wei Yangwa. .

But after liberation, no one called this nickname anymore.

It was just the Huang family members who held back a sense of resentment and often shouted behind their backs. "

The long-term worker before liberation suddenly became the village chief. This group of people felt very aggrieved.

Looking at the two arrogant little-footed old ladies, Li Aiguo was puzzled, these people really couldn't figure themselves out.

Do you still think that this is before liberation, and they can ride on the heads of the people and dominate them?

Wasn't the blood shed in vain?

Village Chief Wei was an honest and honest man. Faced with such a harsh and mean woman, his face turned red and he couldn't say a word.

Li Aiguo couldn't let honest people be bullied, so he stood up and said: "This gift is a gift from our locomotive depot to the rescue members. They are eligible to receive it. Not everyone, including cats and dogs, can come to receive it."

As soon as these words came out, the arrogance of the little-footed old lady of the Huang family suddenly went out.

Village Chief Wei also woke up and said with wide eyes: "Huang family, you want the enamel vat, why didn't you join the rescue in the first place.

I personally came to your Huang family to inform you! Your whole family is sleeping on the fire bed, and no one comes forward. "

"That"

"do not talk!"

Village Chief Wei waved his hand: "Your Huang family has become more and more embarrassing recently. No one works in the fields, and you run faster than anyone else when eating! You have completely failed to understand the spirit of 'one master and two masters'. You guys go to the commune tonight for a meeting!"

Of course, a meeting cannot be a simple meeting.

The little-footed old lady of the Huang family did not expect that Village Chief Wei would be so cruel.

It’s not that they don’t want to work, it’s that they can’t do it.

Besides, before liberation, Lao Wei was their family's sheepherder. Without his family, there was no way he could survive.

Why doesn’t this person know how to be grateful?

With feelings of grievance, sorrow and anger, the two little-footed old ladies from the Huang family staggered away.

Wei Dazhu spat at their backs.

"The Huang family is a well-known bully from all over the country, and every villager in our village has been bullied by them.

When I was young, I worked with my father in the Huang family. The Huang family’s favorite thing to do was to stuff the long-term worker’s black crotch into cow dung.

My father dug out the steamed buns from the cow dung and gave them to me to eat.

He told me that cow dung is actually made from grass and is not dirty. "

Yes, cow dung is not dirty, what is dirty is the human heart. This was the first time Li Aiguo heard such a thing, and he understood a little more about the suffering before liberation.

Seeing Village Chief Wei rubbing his hands, he said sheepishly: "Driver Li, I made you laugh."

"Harm, Village Chief Wei, you are too kind-hearted and want to influence those people."

Li Aiguo took out his cigarette, stepped aside, and said seriously: "If those people could really realize their mistakes, they would have actively participated in labor long ago."

"Yes, in order to improve the ideological consciousness of the Huang family, the soles of Village Chief Wei's shoes were worn out, but it had no effect." Wei Dazhu said.

Village Chief Lao Wei nodded: "Don't worry, I will ask the villagers to criticize them severely when we hold a meeting tonight."

After Wei Zhuang's enamel jars and hot water bottles were distributed, Li Aiguo entrusted Village Chief Wei and Wei Dazhu to distribute gifts from several other villages.

The time came to noon unknowingly.

Counting the time, Yan Jiecheng and Zhang Tieniu had arrived at the maintenance section, but rescue had not yet arrived.

Li Aiguo and Village Chief Wei came to the commune.

The communal meal at noon is steamed buns and boiled cabbage.

Although the wowotou is a bit dry, it can satisfy your stomach as long as it is eaten with soup or water.

Dabao, Zhaodi, and Niandi gathered around Li Aiguo and listened to his story about catching bad guys.

Li Aiguo talked while eating.

As soon as he put down the bowl, a tall woman walked in from outside.

"Driver Li, I'll treat you to some pig peaches."

The woman's pale face was stained with pockmarks.

She was wearing a work cloth coat, and her tall body blocked the doorway, blocking the sunlight, and the room suddenly became dim.

The woman opened her hands to Li Aiguo, and in her hands were seven or eight red fruits.

The appearance color is reddish brown, with fine burrs on the surface.

Stacked together, they look like plump piglets.

Li Aiguo has seen this thing before, and it seems to be called paper mulberry.

It grows on paper mulberry trees in the fields. It tastes sour and sweet when mature. It is the favorite snack of children these days.

Li Aiguo's eyes passed over the fruit and landed on the tiger's mouth of the woman's palm. His eyes narrowed slightly and his eyebrows rose vaguely.

Li Aiguo glanced at the woman without leaving any trace: "Who are you?"

"Oh, look at how stupid I am. I forgot to introduce you to you. I am Wang's stuttering daughter-in-law."

The woman showed her black and yellow teeth.

"Your locomotive maintenance section gave me a thermos and an enamel cylinder. I, an old farmer, didn't have anything good to give back, so I went to the mountains to pick a few peaches, hoping that you would have a try."

It seems that this woman must be the daughter-in-law picked up by the militia captain Wang.

Dabao was playing next to him, and he was also making noises about eating pig peaches. The woman was startled and raised her palms high.

"Dabao, don't make trouble. This is a gift from me to the driver. If you want to eat it, I will pick it for you later."

Seeing this, Dabao could only stand aside with his mouth pouting.

The woman stared straight at Li Aiguo, pursed her lips and smiled: "Driver Li, this thing is not valuable, but it is the sincerity of our members."

Seeing that Li Aiguo still didn't move, she seemed a little anxious.

"Driver Li, do you look down on our members?"

The tone was harsh, cold and rough.

"Captain Wang asked you to send it?"

Li Aiguo put the bowls and chopsticks aside, turned around, took out a thermos, and asked while making water.

It was just a simple sentence, but the woman hesitated for a long time, as if she was facing a difficult decision.

Finally, she lowered her eyes, bit her lip and said, "I went into the mountain alone, Lao Wang doesn't know, but does it matter?"

Li Aiguo's hand was very steady and the water didn't spill at all.

He put down the hot water bottle and took a deep look at the woman.

Being caught by the sharp gaze, the woman's body was covered with goosebumps.

She turned around and wanted to run, but thinking that this was a task assigned by the big boss, she could only keep her feet nailed to the ground.

The big guy once ate human flesh alive.

"Patriotism, this is the sentiment of the commune members. Let's accept it quickly." Village Chief Wei thought Li Aiguo was a little embarrassed when he saw that he didn't accept the fruit.

He quickly stood up, ready to help take the fruit from the woman's hand.

The woman withdrew her hand and held the fruits in her palm.

As soon as she retracted her hand, the woman felt that her behavior was wrong. She wanted to extend her hand again, but felt that it was too late.

One hand stretched back and forth, and even Village Chief Wei saw the problem.

The woman froze in place, like a wooden figure.

Li Aiguo picked up the enamel jar and took a sip of tea: "Now I give you two choices, either you eat all the fruits in your hand. Or you tell everything."

Hearing this, the last chance of luck in the woman's heart was shattered.

Her eyelids twitched: "How did you see that? Don't I look like a club member?"

"That's not the case. You are no different from the aunties in the countryside now. The only problem is your hand that holds the gun."

The woman raised her palm, her eyes fell on the calluses at the tiger's mouth, and she was shocked.

For so many years, she worked in the fields every day, served Stutter, washed and cooked meals, and she had long forgotten that this hand had ever pulled the trigger.

She raised her head and looked at Li Aiguo carefully. He was tall and tough-looking, but that was all.

It is difficult to associate him with those on the special front.

"What's the matter, don't you want to choose? Let me guess."

Li Aiguo shook his head and put down his cup: "Did someone send you here?"

"You know everything!" The woman's face changed drastically.

The woman remembered the sneer on Sai Yinghua's lips when he handed her the poison, and finally understood.

Sai Yinghua is going to kill someone with a borrowed knife!

The most ridiculous thing is that she foolishly fell for it.

The poison on this pig peach is probably not the so-called heartbroken grass that only takes seven days to take effect, but the six-liu powder.

Li Aiguo didn't answer her. He reached into his waist and grasped the cold handle of the pistol.

The enemy's actions were beyond Li Aiguo's expectations. It stands to reason that since they knew that their identities were exposed, they should escape immediately.

It's so weird that he even thinks about taking revenge on himself.

Li Aiguo didn't know the identity of this woman, but as long as the woman dared to move, he would shoot without hesitation.

The scene fell silent.

At this time, Captain Wang walked in from outside.

Seeing the woman there, Captain Wang looked surprised: "Honghong Hongtao'er, aren't you working in the fields with the production team?"

The woman lowered her eyelids and said nothing, instantly transforming into an honest and honest member of the club.

When Captain Wang saw those pig peaches, he swallowed and said, "Yeah, yeah, there are some peaches on the mountain now. These are so delicious, I have to try one."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pinch the pig peach.

The woman quickly retracted her hand.

"Don't, don't eat it!"

"Why, I know. You gave this to Driver Li. Driver Li is from the city and doesn't care about this stuff."

Captain Wang said with a sarcastic smile: "I'm just greedy, Hong Tao'er, just let me eat one."

Facing the honest Captain Wang, a trace of struggle flashed in the woman's eyes, and she finally bit her lip.

"Poisonous! I put poison on this fruit!"

After the woman finished speaking, she threw the pig peach on the ground, raised her foot and stepped on it hard.

The bright red juice splashed everywhere, staining the ground and her round-top black cloth shoes red.

"poisonous?"

Captain Wang was stunned for a long time before he finally came to his senses.

He stopped stuttering at this time, pointed at the woman's nose and said, "You actually want to murder Driver Li, why?"

The woman lowered her head and remained silent.

"Are you a bad guy?" Captain Wang said subconsciously.

After saying that, he quickly changed his mind.

"No, it's impossible. You are so good to me. You wash my clothes, warm my bed, and give birth to my baby. How can you be a bad person!"

He grabbed the woman's shoulders with both hands and shook her violently.

"Tell me! Hongtao'er!"

This was the first time Li Aiguo had seen a grown man cry. Two lines of hot tears fell down Captain Wang's cheeks, broken and heavy.

Those tears, with endless pain, seemed to drown him.

Looking at this heartbroken man, the woman could only give a cold answer.

"I'm sorry for you!"

"We have no fate in this life. When I wait for the next life, I will find you and marry you!" After saying that, the woman yelled at Li Aiguo: "I am dead, you must not cause trouble for my man. All sins will be I did it and it has nothing to do with my man."

Turn around, step up your feet, and hit your head against the wall.

The woman moves extremely fast.

Captain Wang was feeling sad. When he raised his head, it was already too late.

Village Chief Wei was still digesting the fact that there were bad guys in the village and didn't notice it at all.

At this time, Wei Dazhu had just gathered Dabao and Zhaodi's children together to protect them to prevent the woman from jumping over the wall in a hurry. He did not expect that the woman would choose to commit suicide.

Everyone could only watch as the woman hit the wall.

Captain Wang fell to his knees with a thud.

at this time.

"boom!"

Gunshots were fired.

The woman fell to the ground only twenty minutes away from the wall.

She struggled and wanted to hit the wall.

The severe pain in her legs made her unable to even stand up.

Everyone turned around and saw Li Aiguo slowly putting away his pistol.

Wei Dazhu's eyes widened.

This shot turned out to be life-saving.

It turns out that a gun can still be used like this!

Captain Wang gave Li Aiguo a grateful look, rushed forward in a hurry, and took the woman into his arms.

"Hongtao'er, why are you so stupid!"

"Master, if I don't die, you will be implicated." The woman looked pale and stared at Captain Wang affectionately.

"Then I don't want to let you die. I don't care what you have done in the past, but now that you have changed it, the superiors will definitely give you a lighter sentence."

A pair of fateful mandarin ducks are there to help each other.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became weird.

Just like it was a spy drama one second, and it turned into a romance drama the next second.

The style of painting changed so quickly that everyone in the room didn't know how to react.

At this moment, we can't just kick Wang Mute away and tie up Hong Tao'er.

Li Aiguo hated seeing this kind of scene the most, so he inserted the gun into his waist, asked Wei Dazhu to keep an eye on the two of them, and then walked out of the house.

He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, struck a match and lit it.

hiss.

call.

Taking a deep breath of cigarette, the spicy taste stimulated the lungs and made me sober.

It seems that Old Man Liu and Aunt Liu in the supply and marketing cooperative are not ordinary enemies.

Generally, enemies are very cautious and will run away immediately if there is any disturbance.

Their attack was meaningless and seemed to be just for revenge.

So unwise, so irrational.

But this is a good use.

The reason why Li Aiguo did not take immediate action was because this was Wei Zhuang, not the capital.

If he were in the capital, he would have already borrowed the power of the locomotive depot to launch an operation against the supply and marketing cooperative.

But here we need to convince the old village chief.

Fortunately, the enemy sent the red peach.

After just a few minutes of contact, Li Aiguo figured out the character of a woman like Hong Taoer.

A classic victim of Stockholm Syndrome.

Although this name may sound fancy, it is actually very common in remote rural areas.

Many women are often beaten by their husbands until their noses and faces are swollen, but they are unwilling to divorce. This is a typical case.

If Hongtaoer was forced by Old Man Liu from the supply and marketing cooperative, it could be a breakthrough.

Use this to convince Village Chief Wei and the members.

Li Aiguo made up his mind. He had just put out his cigarette and was about to enter the warehouse to interrogate Hongtaoer.

Village Chief Lao Wei also followed.

Li Aiguo suddenly turned around and asked, "Village chief, do you have any ideas?"

Village Chief Lao Wei said with some embarrassment: "Hongtao'er is a good woman. Ever since she came to our village, she has always done her duty and worked very hard. Can you help her plead with the superiors?"

Although Village Chief Wei doesn't know Li Aiguo's identity.

But he had also received training and could see some clues from Li Aiguo's shooting method.

He is really a good village leader, but he is too soft-hearted.

Li Aiguo said coldly: "This matter is not decided by me, but by Hongtao'er herself. If she tells everything and can make meritorious service, the higher ups may consider it."

Of course, Li Aiguo didn't tell him one thing.

That is Hong Tao'er's hands, they must be clean and cannot be stained with blood.

Li Aiguo has always opposed those vicious people being given a lighter sentence.

Those people killed so many people and harmed so many people before liberation.

But as long as he expresses his guilt and repentance, he wants to be forgiven.

What a dream!

Can the living really represent the dead and forgive these people?

"Don't worry, I will try my best to persuade Hong Tao'er."

Village Chief Wei nodded heavily, turned around and entered the house.

When Dabao and several children saw the village chief leaving, they all gathered around Li Aiguo.

"Uncle driver, is Hongtaoer a bad person?" Dabao said with big innocent eyes.

Zhaodi knocked on Dabao's head and said, "It must be so. Didn't you see that she wanted to poison the driver uncle with poisonous fruit?"

Xiangdi tilted his little head with a puzzled look on his face: "But Aunt Hongtao'er is very kind to us on weekdays and often takes us to the mountains to pick fruits."

Zhaodi pinched his waist with both hands, like a little adult, "That's because she wants to confuse us.

You have forgotten that the village chief's grandfather went to catch crabs with Xiao Liuzi and Gen'er.

Entering a rock cave to catch a big red crab that ran away.

Did you discover the story of Dieter the dog?

Then Dog Dieter also gave Xiao Liuzi and Gen'er milk candies. Doesn't he look like a good person? "

Several children nodded heavily.

"Driver Li is really good. He can recognize bad guys at a glance."

In this era, the favorite game for children is to catch Deeds.

Now that they saw that Li Aiguo had really been caught, they all had stars in their eyes with admiration.

Dabao even took out his beloved wooden pistol and wanted to give it to Li Aiguo.

Li Aiguo rubbed his head.

"You'd better keep this, you still have to rely on it to protect your two sisters, right?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm a little hero too." Dabao puffed up his chest excitedly.

It's busy.

Village Chief Lao Wei came out of the house.

Tell Li Aiguo that he has completed Hong Taoer's work and invite Li Aiguo to go in for interrogation.

"Dabao, you go play first, uncle has something to do!" Li Aiguo stood up and rubbed Dabao's head.

"We know, uncle is going to interrogate bad guys."

Several children dispersed in a hurry and played a game of catching Dieter in the courtyard.

Li Aiguo was not worried about them running out to spread the word.

Because after firing the shot, he had already had the door of the commune locked.

Inside the warehouse.

The wound on Hong Tao'er's calf was tied up with strips of cloth.

The strip of cloth was a bright red, and it must have been smeared with plant ash.

This simple treatment only prevents infection and does not reduce any pain.

Hongtaoer gasped in pain, unable to escape at all.

Even so, in order to avoid an accident, Captain Wang cruelly tied her to a wooden pillar in the middle of the warehouse with a rope.

At this time, Hong Tao'er was crying and Captain Wang was whispering instructions next to her.

"Honghong Hongtao'er, don't blame me, I'm doing this for your own good."

"You must tell Driver Li everything later."

"You still want to give me a baby."

Seeing Li Aiguo walk in, Captain Wang hurriedly moved a regular chair and asked Li Aiguo to sit down.

He said with sincerity and fear: "Driver Li Li Li, my wife has expressed her willingness to cooperate. If you have any questions, just ask."

"As long as you can intercede for my wife, even if it means being a bull or a horse, I am willing to do it."

A tall and thick man kept chattering away. Li Aiguo frowned slightly and sat down on the chair slowly.

"You, you, you are my reborn parents, if you can."

"Wang stutters, don't be so careless. Driver Li has his own decision on what to do with your wife!"

Village Chief Lao Wei scolded Captain Wang for a few words, and he finally became honest.

He picked up the pipe pot from his waist and squatted beside him to smoke. The white smoke could not cover up the melancholy on his dark face.

Li Aiguo asked Wei Dazhu to bring a notebook, lit a cigarette, looked at Hongtaoer and asked.

"name?"

"Heart."

"Real name!" Li Aiguo said with a straight face.

Hong Tao'er's face, which was already pale due to blood loss, became even paler.

"My name is Zhou Dadao, and I was originally a farmer in Pangezhuang. After joining the big boss, he took me as a kid. Seeing my blushing, he gave me the name Hongtaoer."

As a child, Rao Shiwang stuttered and was already mentally prepared. At this time, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

The sound of teeth grinding was particularly harsh in the silent warehouse.

Hong Tao'er looked at Wang Stutter and smiled sadly: "Man, I'm sorry for you."

"Tao'er, you were deceived. I don't blame you. I will love you all my life." Wang stuttered and twisted his thighs to suppress the anger in his heart.

He looked at Hongtaoer lovingly.

There is a sour, primitive and restless smell in the air.

Damn, I’m starting to act in a mountain village romance drama again!

Li Aiguo pinched his eyebrows and looked at Village Chief Wei: "Take Wang Stuttering out first."

Wang Stutter also knew that he was in the way, but he still reluctantly left. He walked to the door and looked back at Hong Tao'er.

"Tao'er, don't be afraid, you will be fine. You still have to give birth to a baby for me!"

Snapped!

The heavy wooden door closed, shutting out the infatuated man and his strong emotions.

Inside the dark room.

Li Aiguo then asked: "Who is the big boss in your mouth?"

"The big boss's name is Zhang Youcai, and he is also from Pangezhuang." Hong Tao'er looked at Li Aiguo uneasily, "His wife's name is Liu Cuihua, nicknamed Sai Yinghua, and she is the flat-headed son of the big boss."

"Flathead?"

"That's what my wife means."

Big head, flat head... Li Aiguo thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and asked: "Before liberation, were you working as beards?"

"Ah, you, how did you know?" Hong Taoer subconsciously raised her voice.

Immediately he felt something was wrong and quickly lowered his head.

This woman seems a bit stupid

However, Li Aiguo can understand that if he is not stupid, he will not give poisonous pig peaches.

Once Li Aiguo is poisoned and there is Village Chief Wei in the warehouse, Hong Taoer will definitely not be able to escape. (End of chapter)
