Volume I, Chapter 35
Tomorrow is the first Lantern Festival after the liberation of Beiping, the Wang family is busy all night, and the courtyard is hung with colorful lights, a joyful atmosphere. Wang Yunqing had never been so happy in the past few years, and he asked the maid to prepare chicken, duck, fish, tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea. He planned 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 could bring their wives and children, and everyone would have a good time.
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.
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 the first half of the night, and Shuzhen felt tired, so she yawned and stretched a few more lazinesses, washed her face and prepared to sleep. After laying the quilt at the bedside, she changed into pajamas and lay on the bed, casually turning off the lamp beside her.
The moon hung high in the sky, casting a silvery light in the very quiet courtyard, and people who had been tired after a long day had fallen asleep. At this time, a person turned in from outside the courtyard wall of the Wang family, and sneaked to Shuzhen's house like a ghost. The paper on the window next to the door was gently pierced, and a hand reached in from the outside and fumbled to open the door. In an instant, the door was gently opened, and a ghostly figure flashed into the room.
The subtle sound alarmed Shuzhen, who had not yet slept steadily, she opened her eyes and suddenly saw a black shadow standing in front of the bed, the timid Shuzhen thought that she had met a ghost, she was so scared that she was about to scream loudly, the black shadow had covered her mouth tightly with her hand, Shuzhen wanted to struggle to resist, but her limbs were as heavy as lead and could not move. In an instant, Shuzhen's heart tightened and she almost fainted with fright.
"Don't shout! I am a good minister. The shadow said in a deep voice.
As soon as she heard that the person who came was Ma Liangchen, Shuzhen opened her frightened eyes and looked carefully at the figure in the dark, and from the silhouette, she looked like Ma Liangchen standing in front of the bed.
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: "Don't shout!" If you don't obey, I'll kill you! ”
Shuzhen's head moved, and Ma Liangchen took away the hand covering Shuzhen's mouth. Shuzhen sat up and said tremblingly, "Mom! I was scared to death, I thought I had met a ghost, it turned out to be you! What are you doing running to my house in the middle of the night? Haven't you been caught? ”
"If they can catch me, I won't run?" Ma Liangchen asked.
"My family hates you to death, why don't you run away, isn't it self-defeating when you come to my house?"
Ma Liangchen smirked and said, "Haven't you heard of 'dark under the lamp'? The more dangerous the place, the safer! **Arresting me everywhere, but who would have thought that I, Ma Liangchen, would be hiding in the house of the enemy who supports **? Besides, we are husband and wife, if you don't say it, who will know that I am here? ”
After Ma Liangchen finished speaking, he sat on Shuzhen's bedside, and he asked Shuzhen to get him something to eat. Sook-jin was afraid of angering him, so she had to do it. Shuzhen got up and put on a padded jacket, turned on the lamp, and she took some uneaten snacks from the cupboard and handed them to Ma Liangchen. Ma Liangchen walked lightly to the window, opened the curtain a crack, looked into the courtyard, and only after he was sure that it was safe did he sit down at the table, vigilantly put the pistol within reach, and ate in a big gulp.
Shuzhen looked at Ma Liangchen, who was not a human or a ghost, and her heart was like beating a drum, but she thought that she had to stabilize Ma Liangchen first, don't force him to do anything that hurt 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, "Liangchen, it's very cold this day, I'll make you a pot of hot tea to drink and warm up." ”
Ma Liangchen asked in a weird way: "Are you still afraid that I will freeze?" Shuzhen, 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 old, and we have been married for more than ten years, and we have some feelings. When you used to be angry, I followed the light to eat and drink spicy food, but now that you are down, I am not also unlucky! To tell you the truth, I feel quite uncomfortable to see that you are not a ghost or a ghost now. 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 wouldn't have become so miserable 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 to Shuzhen: "Wife, I'm really 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, and unrighteous, I've done too many bad things, and it's too late to turn back now! Nothing will let me go, and being caught by them will only lead to a dead end. 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 after listening to Ma Liangchen's words, she comforted softly: "Liangchen, isn't it about leniency in confession and strictness in resistance, you take the initiative to confess and surrender, and maybe there is 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 ** won't kill you. ”
Ma Liangchen hung his head in frustration and said: "It's late, I have done too many bad facts, ** will never let me go." I'll tell you the truth, in fact, I didn't really save the lives of Huang Tingting's **, do you think I am the Guanyin Bodhisattva of great compassion? That's a plan I set up to kill two birds with one stone: let Ma Beard kill **, and then get rid of Ma Beard. Unexpectedly, Ma Dabeard, the stupid man, didn't have time to kill Huang Tingting, and they themselves were killed first. I don't have the opportunity to confess and forgive myself now, so I can only bite the bullet and go to the dark. Do you know what it means to ride a tiger? Riding a tiger is really scary, but when you come down, you have to let the tiger eat it! ”
"You, one wrong step, one wrong step, deeper and deeper in the quagmire, 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:
Two days before the liberation of Beiping, Ma Liangchen knew that the general trend had gone, he made up and fled, and was found with a pistol when he went out of the city gate. The guards who watched Ma Liangchen scolded him, saying that they were the worst spies, and they would definitely destroy all the spies with guns after entering Beiping. Ma Liangchen was scared to death when he heard this, so he saw an opportunity and ran away while the guards were napping and pried open the not very sturdy back window of the storeroom. After Ma Liangchen escaped, he was panicked like a lost dog, he found a man who was not caught and lurked, took some money and a pistol from there, and prepared to find an opportunity to escape from Beiping. Who knows that the unlucky man drinks cold water and stuffs his teeth, when he pays money to buy things on the street, he is robbed by a group of beggars in front of the public, and the phoenix that falls on the shelf is not as good as a chicken, he is anxious and annoyed and can't attack, so he has to admit that he is unlucky. Desperate, he couldn't do anything, so in order to survive, he had to get another rickshaw and disguise his identity by pretending to be a driver and earn some money to escape. He was afraid that people would recognize him, and he could only do the work of pulling the cart secretly at night, but he didn't expect to be hit by Huang Tingting tonight. When Huang Tingting caught him, he injured Huang Tingting and fled. At this time, ** must be searching for him in the whole city, he has no place to hide, so he secretly went to Wang's house to find Shuzhen for refuge.
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? Isn't that a sin on a crime! I'm going to have to leave a way out for myself. ”
Shuzhen felt much more relieved when she heard him say this.
Ma Liangchen then said to Shuzhen: "I will hide in your house for two days first, and you should not talk about this matter with anyone." Prepare me some clothes and money, and give me all the gold and silver I bought for you before, and I will go away from the limelight, 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 you arrest me!" Hear clearly, if you give me a way out, I'll let your family 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, I will not become an accomplice, how can our family explain to **? Please, go away! Sook-jin persuaded.
"You just talked about the love between husband and wife, and now you want me to die, you are ruthless enough!" Ma Liangchen glared at Shuzhen.
Shuzhen said helplessly to Ma Liangchen: "In my opinion, our well water does not interfere with river water, I won't report you that you have been here, and you don't hurt my family, you leave immediately!" My gold bracelet is worth a lot of money handed down from my ancestors, and if you take it away as a coil, it will not be 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?" Don't blame me for being unrighteous if you are unkind! He was still a little repentant just now, and he showed his vicious nature again, and strips of horizontal flesh stretched out 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 her limbs stiffened, and her throat seemed to be stuck by something, and she didn't dare to come out for fear of causing death. Ma Liangchen grabbed Shuzhen's hand and forcibly took off the cat's eye ring on her finger and put it on his hand
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. Ma Liangchen, who was extremely angry, pushed Shuzhen away and punched Shuzhen fiercely in the chest. Shuzhen was beaten a few steps back and fell to the bed, the padded jacket she was draped on the ground fell to the ground, her pajamas were torn off, and her snow-white breasts were exposed, she hurriedly covered the exposed parts of her body with her hands, curling up her body into a ball. Shuzhen's body has gained a lot of fat after middle age, and her whole body looks very plump. Ma Liangchen looked at Shuzhen who was lying with his back to him, and felt that her round buttocks were very attractive, and he found a sense of seduction in a woman who had long been tired of being played with by him, and a lust suddenly rose in his heart, and there was a strong urge to solve it immediately.
Ma Liangchen said to Shuzhen in a daze: "My fat beauty, Lao Tzu hasn't touched a woman for a while, and today I ask Mrs. to give her face, this can be regarded as a parting gift for the two of us!" He didn't think about his dangerous situation at this time, and after finishing speaking, he pounced on Shuzhen like a hungry wolf.
Ma Liangchen pressed on Shuzhen, put his hands into her pajamas and touched up and down wantonly, Shuzhen didn't dare to shout, she could only use her hands to protect her chest and lower body, and twisted her body desperately. Seeing that Shuzhen refused to give in, Ma Liangchen, who was in a hurry, grabbed a pillow and pressed it Shuzhen's face, and tightly clamped Shuzhen's lower body with his legs. Shuzhen couldn't breathe, she struggled hard for a while before she fainted and didn't move. Ma Liangchen threw away the pillow when he saw that Shuzhen didn't resist, and 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 about venting his lust on Shuzhen, and he was still unsatisfied after the incident, but he was afraid that there would be problems after a long delay, so he reluctantly put on his clothes and picked up the gold and silver that he had snatched, and quietly slipped out of the Wang family compound.
After a long time, Shuzhen slowly woke up, and she saw that she was lying naked, and Ma Liangchen had already slipped away with the gold and silver she had snatched. Shuzhen felt humiliated and embarrassed, and was afraid of waking up her family, so she had to cover her head with a quilt and cry sadly for a night, and the next morning Shuzhen cried to her parents about what happened at night.
His daughter was so humiliated, Ma Liangchen was so heartbroken, Wang Yunqing and his wife gritted their teeth and hated! They immediately reported the case to the military management department and demanded the arrest of Ma Liangchen, a special agent who had absconded. This year's Lantern Festival originally wanted to be lively, but the Wang family had an unpleasant time! After Wang Hongju learned about this, he vowed to catch Ma Liangchen, the villain, with his own hands.
