# c14: report Wang Yongshun couldn't stand still. No matter how remote the area was, he still knew that there was a lot of trouble going on outside. He heard that when students in some schools started making trouble, they would beat the teacher to death. The eldest son of the Xu family said that he was studying at a provincial university. When there was a big commotion the year before last, classes were suspended for a period of time, but later he reluctantly resumed classes. He was about to graduate next year and could get a job after getting his diploma. Why is he now suddenly considered anti-rightist? Wang Yongshun was so anxious that he wandered around the house several times before finally making up his mind and walking out. He met Li Chunjuan who was rushing back to inform her daughter. "What are you doing?" Li Chunjuan was sweating anxiously: "I have to tell Lingling to take Lingling to Xu's house to have a look." Wang Yongshun just wanted to knock this stupid woman to death: "What's the point of taking Lingling to see her?" Li Chunjuan was always at a loss for ideas, and now she was extremely panicked: "After all, she is an in-law, so I have to go over and see what's going on." Wang Yongshun was impatient to talk nonsense with his wife and directly waved his hand: "You don't need to go, tell your daughter to say goodbye. She said that she is sick and can't go out these days. I can just go and take a look." Wang Yongshun was aware that the Xu family used to be a good marriage candidate, but now it seems that this may not be the case. It depends on whether you are actually anti-rightist or not, and if you are not good, your whole family will be affected. The Xu family originally recruited poor peasants with good roots and young talents. If the eldest son of the family was transferred to becoming a [middle peasant or rich peasant](#user-content-fn-1)[^1]... Wang Yongshun was a little annoyed. The marriage, which was originally a good marriage, turned out to be a bit troublesome. Stopping contact at this time will inevitably make everyone in the brigade laugh. But if not, if the other party gets involved with your family, will it affect Yaozong's entry into the city? Wang Yongshun sighed for a long time, then slipped along the edge of the house to Xu's house. From a distance, you could see a group of people surrounding the Xu family, but there was no sound of smashing things. Wang Yongshun was temporarily relieved. The fact that nothing was searched 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. As soon as they saw Wang Yongshun among the crowd with a sly look on his face, someone immediately pushed him forward. Wang Yongshun secretly scolded these people for watching the fun, regardless of the big deal, and a few mean-mouthed people came over to talk to him. Wang Yongshun had no thoughts at all at the moment, his eyes fixed on the Xu family's door. It didn't take long, and soon I saw a group of people wearing Chinese tunic suits coming out. The leader had a pen inserted in his chest, and his hair was neatly combed, making him look very imposing. "Who is this?" "Don't you know our commune secretary? Zhao Zhichun." "My dear, what happened to the Xu family? Why is the secretary here?" "Who knows! But we don't know what's wrong with the eldest son of the Xu family. He studied well in college and now is sent down for re-education." …… Zhao Zhichun walked out of the Xu family gate, looked around, and made a low gesture to signal everyone to be quiet. "Dear fellow villagers, Xu Ming, the eldest son of the Xu family, secretly hid foreign books and was reported anonymously. After verification, it was found that Comrade Xu had problems with consciousness, so the provincial capital university dismissed Xu Ming, and Comrade Xu Ming voluntarily went to the northwest to aid the border.” "Although Comrade Xu Ming made a mistake, considering that young people still have the opportunity to reform, we are here to convey relevant information to his family and urge their family members to make progress in time." "We are all in the same group, and we must help each other in the future, so as not to leave out any comrade who is left behind." After Zhao Zhichun finished speaking, the people present were led to applaud. Amidst the applause, someone asked in a low voice: "What does this mean? Is there anything going on with the Xu family?" "You're stupid. He didn't say anything was wrong. He didn't say anything about changing their social standing either. That means everything's fine." "That's not necessarily the case. The secretary is here. Maybe the second son of the Xu family will have a bad job in the future." "That's true. Even if you're not problematic, you probably won't be able to get up in the future." Zhao Zhichun led a group of people, who came and left in droves. "Hey, why is the Xu family's door closed?" "What's the matter? Were you asked to come in and ask questions?" "I think the Xu family will probably have to keep their tail between their legs in the future." "Where's Yongshun? Wasn't he here just now?" "And what about Wang Lingling? Why doesn't she come to see them, isn't she also the second son's unmarried wife?" …… Wang Yongshun went home with his head down. He didn't reply to anyone who greeted him on the way, he just buried his head and didn't look at anyone. The Xu family's situation was obviously more serious than he thought, and Xu Ming was not stupid. Knowing that he couldn't come back, he simply chose the farthest place and said he was going to the border to help, hoping to change the situation. But what happened cannot be erased. It is the same across the country now. If the Xu family understands the truth, they should quickly cut off the relationship at this time. It is expected that the commune leaders came for this purpose. There is such an anti-rightist in the commune. I can't do anything about it. If his family is sensible, they should take the hint given by the commune leaders. After cutting the eldest off, in any case, it can be regarded as making up for their previous lack of awareness. What a pity…… Judging from what Zhao Zhichun said when he came out, it was obvious that the second son of the Xu family did not agree to break off. This is tricky. Although the social status have not changed, the existing situation is still there. The people in the brigade will definitely be alienated from this family... Wang Yongshun kicked the stone on the ground hard. Now, he couldn't recognize them even if he wanted to hold his nose! The Wang family can no longer have anything to do with this family! Wang Yongshun walked to the door of his house, and suddenly a thought occurred to him. He quietly walked around to the back of the house and looked along the outside of the window. Finally, Wang Yongshun discovered something. He was furious and flew home like a whirlwind. Kicking open the door of Wang Lingling's room, Wang Yongshun roared in a low voice: "Is it you?! Is it you?!" Wang Lingling was sitting on the bed, with no fear on her face, and a sarcastic smile on her lips: "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 confused Li Chunjuan and wandered around the room looking for a stick: "I'll beat you to death! What's wrong with you! You must disturb a good marriage!" This was the first time Li Chunjuan saw Wang Yongshun so angry, and she was too frightened to stop him. Wang Lingling frowned: "I didn't make a mistake in reporting him! Doesn't he have foreign documents hidden in his possession?" Wang Yongshun: "So you sneaked out through the window and ran outside to report it?" Wang Lingling: "That's right! I went directly to the town's revolutionary committee, and they were quick. They found out in two days." Wang Yongshun pointed at Wang Lingling's nose: "How could I give birth to such a fool like you! What good can you get if you ruin the Xu family? It's only good if you marry! Now that you ruined the marriage, let me see what else you can say in the future. Good family!” Wang Lingling was quite disdainful: "I won't marry anyone else, I just want to join the Zhao family." Her reputation was bad, and no one would say anything after she became a stepmother. Fortunately, she thought hard and remembered that Xu Shuang's eldest brother had been involved in an incident in her previous life, and ended up being demoted. But he was already 73 years old at that time and would have been able to come back after another three years. Who knew that his brother's body could not hold on, so he directly passed away in the countryside. Wang Lingling thought that Xu Ming was going to die sooner or later anyway, so she might as well pull him off this time, so that she could defeat her father's insistence on marrying her to the Xu family. I just didn't expect that the Revolutionary Committee acted so quickly and found out everything in two days. However, Xu Ming is different from his previous life. Maybe this time the incident is not very serious. Xu Ming also took the initiative to apply for aid at the border, so the impact is not very big. Wang Lingling still had some regrets in her heart. Why didn't Xu Shuang lose his job and have his status demoted? Originally, she wanted to get Wang Ying and Xu Shuang together after she was reborn, but now that the situation was urgent, she had no time to arrange it, so she could only achieve her goal by injuring the enemy by one thousand and damaging herself by eight hundred. Wang Lingling's left-minded attitude really made Wang Yongshun furious. After calming down for a moment, Wang Yongshun said coldly: "You dream, if you don't marry Xu Shuang, I will ask your mother to find you a husband in a commune much farther away, and no one will say anything after you have been in the brigade for a few years." Wang Lingling's face was full of disbelief. She had already done this, why did Wang Yongshun still not agree to her marrying into the Zhao family?! Wang Yongshun hardened his face and said in an extremely rude tone: "The Xu family is the best place you can go to. If you look later, there won't be such conditions." His two daughters are both well-calculated. They need at least four to five hundred yuan to buy a job in the city. Wang Yongshun has been saving for a long time, but now he is only short of one hundred yuan. There are only a handful of people in the brigade who can give out a hundred as a bridal gift, otherwise, you can only get this number by proposing marriage in another location. Wang Yongshun looked at his daughter as if she were a fool, insisting on breaking up a good marriage. He hoped that Wang Lingling would not regret it in the future. Wang Yongshun dragged Li Chunjuan out and padlocked Wang Lingling's door. "Don't call her out before the marriage is finalized!" Wang Yongshun turned around and went back to the house. He still had to worry about how to cover up this matter from the Xu family. The courtyard of the Xu family consists of three clay houses and one blue brick house, which cannot be said to be good or bad in the brigade. The main reason is that Xu Ming spent money to study in college. Although Xu Shuang's salary has increased in recent years, most of it is subsidized to his eldest brother. However, the two Xu brothers have a good relationship and don't care about each other. In addition to being a cook, Xu Shuang also occasionally took care of weddings and funerals from other families, and went up to the mountains from time to time to find some things. After all, Mrs. Xu's living standard was definitely considered to be above the average level in the commune. But now, there was no longer Mrs. Xu's loud voice in the Xu family's house, only bursts of crying. "Why do you think your brother is like this! I told him to be wary no matter how careful he is, how did he cause someone to report him!" "You too, if I ask you to break up with your brother, you have to do it! Your brother has already gotten involved. If you have something too, how do you want me to deal with it?" "And the Wang family girl, if you don't clearly break up, she won't even marry you." …… Mrs. Xu is a straightforward person. She has been through many troubles over the years, but this is the first time she has cried like this. Xu Shuang still looked dumb, and after a long time he said in a hoarse voice: "After a while, I will send some dry goods to my brother." Mrs. Xu patted her thigh: "He is a stubborn donkey, and you are also a stubborn donkey! He is so stubborn that he will be sent to the northwest! Are you planning to do the same?!" Mrs. Xu wiped her tears: "It's not that I'm cruel. I'm afraid our family's situation will be bad in the future, and you might not be able to keep your job. Although your brother went to aid the border, he wasn't decentralized at all. It's estimated that life will be hard. But no matter what, he can get through it. Don’t be stubborn. He’ll have a good time in the past six months. We’ll talk about contacting him next year.” Xu Shuang hummed and said nothing. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Mrs. Xu hurriedly told him: "Hurry up and open the door, it's probably the in-laws who are here. If something like this happened to our family, they are still willing to come to the door. You have to remember this!" Xu Shuang walked to the door and opened it a crack, but saw no one. Moving his eyes to his feet, he saw two packages wrapped in old newspapers beside the door. Xu Shuang brought the paper bag into the door. Mrs. Xu was still puzzled: "Why aren't they the in-laws?" Xu Shuang was silent as he looked at a hare and black fungus stuck on a branch wrapped in a paper bag, as well as another bag of something that looked like medicinal materials. "It doesn't matter, it's okay if they don't come." Wang Ying never expected that she had only gone up to the mountain for half a day, and when she came down, she heard that something had happened to the Xu family. Xu Shuang's brother was beaten as an anti-rightist, and everyone in the brigade was afraid enough to avoid him. They were all talking about how the eldest son of the Xu family was doing. Logically speaking, Wang Ying and Xu Shuang didn't have much of a 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 do anything at this time. So she gave a newly caught rabbit to Xu Shuang. She was afraid that Xu Shuang would misunderstand that she was cutting the rabbit in two. She also specially added some black fungus and added a few of the ones she picked. Then she separated out some traditional Chinese medicine for calming dryness and replenishing qi, took out some black charcoal and wrote how to use it on the paper bag. Putting things at the door of the Xu's house, Wang Ying didn't leave until she saw Xu Shuang picking things up. Along the way, Wang Ying couldn't help but lament the uncertainty of the world. Two days ago, she heard her reborn cousin clamoring not to marry Xu Shuang, and the Xu family was in trouble. She guessed that her shrewd uncle would not let her cousin marry into the Xu family anymore. Why? Wait a minute! There is only a difference of two days! An incredible suspicion arose in Wang Ying's mind. Could it be that her cousin, who has big ideas and is a little stupid, did something? Otherwise, something could happen to the Xu family by such a coincidence? Damn it, if this is true, this cousin is really wicked in her actions all just to marry a potential stock. Wang Ying hurried home, and as soon as she entered the door, she heard a fight coming from Wang Lingling's room. After listening for a while, Wang Ying looked confused, it really was her cousin who did it. This woman is so wicked that she would go crazy trying to get with another man. At the end of the quarrel, Wang Yongshun issued a message to imprison Wang Lingling until she got engaged. However, Wang Ying felt that her uncle had underestimated his daughter. In order to marry a person and report it, she would not hesitate to destroy someone else's entire family. The determination of this reborn cousin is really rock solid. Wang Ying feels that this sister will achieve her wish sooner or later. Sure enough, within three days, something strange happened to the brigade. Wang Lingling of the Wang family is missing.
