On the first day of the Lantern Festival, Wang Yunqing instructed everyone to hang various forms of lanterns in the courtyard, and all kinds of items such as chicken, duck, fish, tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea were prepared. Wang Yunqing has never been so happy as he is now in the past ten years, he is ready to let the whole house have a dinner together on the night of the Lantern Festival, regardless of the master and servant, and the servants can bring their wives and children, and everyone will have a good time together.

Shuzhen is the head of the whole family, she is full of energy, inside and out. It was getting late, the servants had dispersed, and the old couple Wang, who had been busy all day, had returned to the backyard to rest. The lights were turned off in the whole courtyard, except for Shuzhen's bedroom, which was still lit.

Although it was not yet the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the moon was already big and round, and the bright moon hung high in the cold and silent sky, sprinkling a silver light in the very quiet courtyard. At this time, a dark shadow turned in from outside the courtyard wall of the Wang family, and this ghostly black shadow slid a few times before slipping to Shuzhen's window, and he gently pierced the window paper with his fingers to peep into the house.

Sook-jin took the abacus and calculated the cost of the day, and then she arranged the menu for tomorrow's dinner. Before she knew it, it was midnight, and Sook-jin was tired, so she yawned and stretched a few more times before getting ready for bed. After laying the quilt at the bedside, Shuzhen changed into pajamas and prepared to plug in the door. As soon as she walked to the door, she saw the door suddenly "creak" open, and she broke in from the outside

Personally, the timid Shuzhen thought that she had met a ghost, she was so frightened that she was about to scream loudly, the man had covered her mouth tightly with his hand, Shuzhen wanted to resist, but in the panic, her limbs were as heavy as lead and could not move.

"Don't shout! I am a good minister. The shadow said in a deep voice.

Shuzhen heard that the voice of the person was like Ma Liangchen, but she couldn't believe that the person in front of her who was wearing an old cotton robe and a torn felt hat was Ma Liangchen.

"Are you really a good minister?"

Ma Liangchen covered Shuzhen's mouth with one hand, and held a gun to Shuzhen's head with the other hand and threatened in a low voice: "You can't even recognize me?" I'm Ma Liangchen! I warn you, don't shout! Or I'll kill you!" ”

Shuzhen's head moved, and Ma Liangchen took away the hand covering Shuzhen's mouth. Shuzhen covered her heart, which was beating wildly, and asked tremblingly: "Mom! I'm scared to death, I thought I had met a ghost, and now the Communist Party is arresting you Kuomintang spies everywhere, why don't you run for your life and run to my house in the middle of the night? ”

Ma Liangchen smiled smugly and said, "I'll tell you Shuzhen." The more dangerous the place, the safer! The Communist Party is arresting me everywhere, but who would have thought that I, Ma Liangchen, would be hiding in the house of people who support the Communist Party? Besides, we were husband and wife after all, and I'm sure you won't betray me. ”

After Ma Liangchen finished speaking, he sat down on Shuzhen's bedside, and he said to Shuzhen: "I'm thirsty and hungry now, go, hurry up and get me some food and drink!" ”

"I only have some leftovers in this house. Well, I'll go to the kitchen and make you something hot. Sook-jin said when she wanted to get out.

Ma Liangchen saw Shuzhen's thoughts, he pointed a pistol at Shuzhen and said, "You don't play tricks on me!" I'll eat whatever you have in the house. ”

Sook-jin was afraid of angering him, so she had to do it. She took some uneaten snacks from the cupboard and handed them to Ma Liangchen. Ma Liangchen walked softly to the window. Pulling open a crack in the curtains, he looked into the courtyard, and when he was sure it was safe, he sat back down at the table, vigilantly put the loaded pistol within reach, and devoured it.

Looking at Ma Liangchen who was eating and drinking, Shuzhen panicked like a drum, she thought about first stabilizing Ma Liangchen, not forcing him to do something that would harm her life and that of her family, and then find a way to drive him away.

Shuzhen fixed her mind and pretended to be concerned and said to Ma Liangchen: "Liangchen. It's a cold day, so you can drink some hot tea after eating snacks to warm up. ”

Ma Liangchen asked in a weird manner: "Shuzhen, do you still know that you care about me?" You don't want me to go to hell every day, do you? ”

Shuzhen sighed and said, "Look at what you said! As the saying goes, a husband and wife are 100 days in one day. We have been married for more than ten years, and although we are divorced now, there is some old love between you and me. When you used to be angry, I followed the light to eat and drink spicy, but now that you are down, how can I fall into the well for you! Tell the truth. Seeing that you are not a human or a ghost now, I feel very uncomfortable. You are a person who does not listen to persuasion, you can not have a conscience for the sake of wealth and power, and once you are prosperous and rich, you forget to marry a couple. Hi! I knew why I had to do it in the first place! If you had listened to my dad. Our lives won't be as miserable as they are now. She slapped her thigh with emotion, choked up and couldn't go on.

Seeing Shuzhen's sad appearance, Ma Liangchen also felt that he did have a lot of things to be sorry for his wife, and he said in frustration: "Wife, I know I'm sorry for you, and I'm sorry for your Wang family." It's all because I've been obsessed from the beginning, I'm selfish, greedy for money, lustful, unfilial, unfilial, I've done too many bad things, and now it's too late to turn back! If there really is an afterlife, I must be reborn as a good person! I also married you, and lived a plain and stable life with you. But this is a matter of the next life, and now I can only go forward with a hard head, and say where I go! With that, he let out a long sigh.

Shuzhen was really moved when she heard Ma Liangchen's words, and she comforted her softly: "Liangchen, the Communist Party talks about confession and leniency, resisting the policy of strictness, you take the initiative to confess and surrender, and there may be a chance for leniency." I heard that Huang Tingting and they can be rescued, and there is also your power inside. If you turn your ways, maybe the Communist Party won't kill you. ”

Ma Liangchen hung his head and told the truth: "I'll tell you the truth when the matter has come to this point, in fact, I didn't really save the lives of Huang Tingting's Communist Party, do you think I am the Guanyin Bodhisattva of great mercy and compassion?" I'm not! In fact, that was a plan I set up to kill two birds with one stone: let Ma Dabeard kill the Communist Party, and the Communist Party would get rid of Ma Dabeard. Unexpectedly, Ma Dabeard, a stupid person, didn't have time to kill Huang Tingting, and they themselves were killed by the Communist Party first. You're telling me to turn myself in? I know that I myself have a lot of Communists on my hands, and I have no chance of confessing to leniency at all. Do you know what it means to ride a tiger? Riding a tiger is really scary, but jumping off the back of a tiger has to be eaten by the tiger! So I can only go all the way to the dark! ”

"You, one wrong step and one wrong step, you are sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire, and now no one can save you!" Sookjin said as she brought him a cup of hot tea.

"It's been a long time since I've had tea!" Ma Liangchen took the teacup and drank it deliciously, Shuzhen asked Ma Liangchen how he had come these days, and Ma Liangchen told him about his situation:

On the eve of the liberation of Beiping, Ma Liangchen knew that the general trend was gone, and he sold all his real estate and prepared to flee to Taiwan with Stationmaster Li. However, Stationmaster Li left Ma Liangchen in Beiping, appointed him as the leader of the latent group, and waited for the national army to counterattack to make internal responses, in fact, he ruthlessly left Ma Liangchen as a lackey.

After the People's Liberation Army entered Beiping, spies of all sizes were arrested one after another, and Ma Liangchen knew that sooner or later his identity would be exposed. That night, Ma Liangchen disguised himself as a coachman to pick up a special commissioner sent by the Secret Bureau, but he didn't expect that he was bumped into by Huang Tingting as soon as he saw off the commissioner,......

After listening to Ma Liangchen's narration, Shuzhen asked anxiously: "You didn't beat Huang Tingting to death, did you?" ”

"No, what's the use of me killing her? I'm disheartened now, I don't want to kill anyone, I just want to run to a place where no one recognizes me and live a peaceful life. ”

Ma Liangchen then said to Shuzhen: "I was discovered by the Communist Party. They must be looking for me, I will hide in your house for two days, you prepare me some clothes and money, and then bring me all the gold and silver I bought for you before, and I will avoid the limelight and leave, and I will never implicate you again. After he finished speaking, he raised his gun and said to Shuzhen: "If you don't do what I say, don't blame me for being rude, I'll kill your whole family before the Communist Party arrests me!" Hear me clearly, you give me a way out. I'll let you go. ”

"No, I can't hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from fifteen. You'd better turn yourself in! Besides, you can't hide it from me. If you are caught in my house and I am not an accomplice, how will our family explain to the Communist Party? Please, go away! Sook-jin persuaded.

"You just talked about a hundred days of husband and wife. Now you want me to die, you are ruthless! Ma Liangchen glared at Shuzhen.

Shuzhen said helplessly to Ma Liangchen: "In my opinion, our well water does not interfere with river water, and I won't report you for coming here." Don't hurt my family, you leave right away! This gold bracelet of mine is worth a lot of money handed down by my ancestors, and you can take it away and wrap it around. It's not in vain for us to be a husband and wife. If you want to mess around again, I'll call someone, and then it's too late for you to leave. Shuzhen took off the bracelet on her wrist and handed it to Ma Liangchen and said, "Take this and leave!" If you don't leave, I'll really call someone. ”

"You dare to shout! I'm going to kill you now, and then your whole family!" Let's get a fish to die! Ma Liangchen, who was anxious, pressed Shuzhen's chest with a gun and forced her to the bed step by step and said, "Old woman, can you call me someone to try?" If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust! He was still a little repentant just now, and now he showed his fierce nature, and stretched out strips of horizontal flesh on his sallow face.

Shuzhen knew that the black-hearted Ma Liangchen would kill people when she was forced to do so, she was so frightened by the murderous Ma Liangchen that she trembled, and she didn't dare to come out for fear of causing a murder.

Ma Liangchen suddenly saw Shuzhen with a cat's eye ring on her hand, so he forcibly took the ring off Shuzhen's finger and put it on his finger.

This cat's eye ring is worth a lot of money and is a favorite item of Sook Jin. Shuzhen was in a hurry, and she grabbed Ma Liangchen's arm like crazy to snatch the ring back.

Ma Liangchen pushed Shuzhen aside and scolded in a low voice: "Fuck, I bought this ring for you!" Today is the return of things to their rightful owners. Shuzhen still wanted to get the ring back, and she rushed forward again to grab Ma Liangchen's hand. The extremely angry Ma Liangchen pushed Shuzhen away hard, and when Shuzhen rushed over again, he punched Shuzhen in the chest. Shuzhen was beaten a few steps backwards and fell on the bed, the cotton jacket she was draped on the ground fell to the ground, her pajamas were torn off, her snow-white breasts were exposed, and she was busy protecting the exposed parts of her body with her hands. After Shuzhen reached middle age, her body became a lot blessed, and her whole body looked very plump and round. Ma Liangchen looked at Shuzhen who fell on the bed, and suddenly felt that her fat and plump waist was very attractive, and found a sense of temptation in the woman who had long been tired of playing with herself, and a strong desire suddenly rose in Ma Liangchen's heart.

Ma Liangchen said to Shuzhen in a daze: "Lao Tzu hasn't touched a woman for a while, and today I ask you to give me a face, this can be regarded as a parting gift from you!" He didn't think about his dangerous situation at this time, and after finishing speaking, he threw the pistol aside and pounced on Shuzhen like a hungry wolf.

Ma Liangchen pressed on Shuzhen's body and tightly clamped Shuzhen's lower body with his legs. Putting her hands into her pajamas and touching her up and down wantonly, Shuzhen didn't dare to shout, so she could only protect her chest and lower body with her hands, and twisted her body desperately. Seeing that Shuzhen refused to give in, Ma Liangchen, who was in a hurry, punched Shuzhen in the temple, and Shuzhen was knocked unconscious and lost the ability to resist. Ma Liangchen stripped Shuzhen naked by two. Ma Liangchen looked at Shuzhen who was stripped naked, like a hunter admiring his fat prey, he proudly took off all the gold and silver ornaments on Shuzhen's body and turned off the light.

Ma Liangchen was crazy to vent his lust on Shuzhen, at this time Shuzhen had eased up, she saw that Ma Liangchen was finished and was pressing on her body and panting, so she struggled with grief and indignation, Ma Liangchen immediately choked Shuzhen's throat with his hand, and in the struggle Shuzhen's hand inadvertently touched the pistol that Ma Liangchen threw to the side, she secretly grabbed the pistol and stopped struggling, Ma Liangchen saw that Shuzhen no longer resisted and wanted to get dressed and leave here as soon as possible. As soon as he turned over and got off Shuzhen's body, he heard a loud "boom" in his ears, and a dazzling red light appeared in front of him, after the red light, he felt that his body was weightless, spinning and descending rapidly from a high place, he was horrified to see that there was a bottomless black hole under him, he wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound, and he wanted to move his limbs but didn't obey the call; He felt his heart tighten, his body getting colder, his consciousness blurred, and then there was eternal darkness and silence. Ma Liangchen was shot and killed by Shuzhen.

Shuzhen threw away the pistol and pushed away Ma Liangchen who was pressing on her, she got up from the bed and turned on the light, and gasped when she saw it, only to see the naked Ma Liangchen pouting his ass and falling on the bed, there was a hole in his temple, and black and red blood and white brains were constantly flowing out. Shuzhen realized that Ma Liangchen was killed by herself, she opened the door in horror and rushed to the courtyard, shouting hysterically: "Oh no! Come on! I killed someone! Shuzhen felt chills all over her body after shouting a few times, and when she looked down, she realized that she was naked, so she hurried back to the house and wrapped herself in a quilt.

A gunshot in the middle of the night alarmed all the people who had fallen asleep in the Wang family compound, and when Wang Yunqing and his wife led people into Shuzhen's bedroom, Shuzhen cried and told them the whole story.

Wang Yunqing looked at the dead Ma Liangchen and said: "Ma Liangchen, Ma Liangchen, in 1938, the Lantern Festival Hongju did not shoot you with a gun, Feng Xuanxia, Ma Dabeard and others wanted to kill you, but you couldn't, eleven years later, you died in the hands of your wife during the Lantern Festival, and the death was so ugly, which is in response to the old saying that good and evil are rewarded and cannot be escaped!" ”

Mrs. Wang looked at the dead Ma Liangchen and scolded angrily: "You bastard didn't forget to spoil my girl when he was dying, it's really innocent!" Shuzhen is cheap to kill you with one shot, and you should be cut with a thousand knives to relieve my anger! ”

In the middle of the night that day, Wang Yunqing reported the case to the Beiping City Public Security Bureau. The big traitor and Kuomintang spy Ma Liangchen was killed, and this news alarmed the leaders of the city public security bureau, who immediately sent people to investigate the scene and brought Shuzhen back to the public security bureau to inquire in detail about the whole process of the incident. Because Shuzhen was a victim and the one who killed her was a heinous spy, she was released after making a detailed record at the Public Security Bureau.

Ma Liangchen, who committed countless crimes, was beaten to death by Shuzhen, but Ma Liangchen's rape made Shuzhen pregnant, and Shuzhen, who had no children, insisted on giving birth to the child despite the opposition of her family. Ten months later, Shuzhen gave birth to a baby girl. The baby girl takes her mother's surname and is named Yijing. (To be continued......)
