The principal thought it was a trivial matter, so he picked up the newspaper absentmindedly and said, "Say, what are you talking about with your classmates?" ”

Today's Huaijiang Ribao news on the front page is that 15,000 tons of wheat are carrying the deep friendship of the Chinese people to Albania.

"We have international friends all over the world." The headmaster sighed and raised the teacup to his lips.

"Headmaster, my dad stole the country's eggs and grain." Chen Zhong's words were so shocked that the water in the principal's teacup spilled out.

"What, what's the situation, you say slowly." The principal is also an old party member, and he is very vigilant, and immediately realized that this is a big case.

"My dad is the warehouse director of non-staple foods, and he secretly takes eggs and flour from the house, and the boss has a pocket, so big." Chen Zhong's excited little face turned red, and he even made comparisons, and finally let the principal figure out the truth of the matter.

"Bell bell bell" class bell rang.

The principal said: "Don't go to the classroom first, I'll take you to see the police uncle later, and you can repeat what you said." ”

Both children nodded earnestly.

As if facing a great enemy, the principal called Chen Zhong's homeroom teacher, and two more physical education teachers, and escorted them to the nearby police station to report the case.

The police attached great importance to it, and a deputy director personally received him and carefully inquired about the case, Chen Zhongren was a big ghost, not scared at all, and told him eloquently, Chen Shi was still young, and his mother often used the police uncle to scare him, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to talk nonsense when he entered the police station.

After making the record, the leaders of the institute immediately divided into two ways, all the way to Chen Zhong's house to confiscate the stolen goods, all the way to the non-staple food company to arrest Chen Shuangxi, it was a difficult period, the policemen's legs were swollen, at this time there was a case of embezzlement of state grain, the cadres and policemen were furious, full of righteous indignation, eager to immediately bring the criminals to justice.

When a team of police officers came to Shuangxi's house, his wife was carrying half a bag of flour and was about to go out, and was caught by the police on the spot, and the stolen goods were seized, and asked her where the flour came from.

"Director, I found the egg!" A police officer retrieved a basket of eggs from under the kitchen and held them high. Everyone was very angry: "The people of the whole country are starving, and the provincial leaders are sharing weal and woe with everyone, and you are really unforgivable in embezzling food!" ”

Shuangxi's wife lowered her head in shame.

The police handcuffed her, and even the flour and eggs were escorted out, and the neighbors were all watching outside, pointing and whispering, Shuangxi's wife didn't dare to raise her head, but Chen Zhong raised his head proudly.

Because Chen Shuangxi had been a soldier before, the arrest detachment was specially equipped with two 54-style pistols along the way, came to the non-staple food company, first found the party secretary to talk, and then asked the company's security section officer to call Chen Shuangxi, as soon as he entered the door, he was pressed by the police officers, and the pistol was handcuffed to his head.

After Chen Shuangxi was arrested, he was very dishonest and refused to confess the facts of the crime, and the police angrily hung him on the heating pipe and didn't open his mouth, but the director still had a way, and called Chen Zhong and said: "Tell your father." ”

Chen Zhong said loudly: "Dad, you confess!" I told the police uncle. ”

Immediately, Chen Zhong was taken away, and the psychological defense line of Double Happiness was broken, and he explained how he made false accounts and stole flour and eggs from the warehouse.

After being locked up overnight, Shuangxi's hair turned white, he knew the punishment he was facing, and he was very dealt with in an extraordinary period, and he was afraid that he would not be able to escape death.

Both Chen Zhong's parents were arrested, left homeless, and temporarily sent to the principal's home to be raised.

The case was reported to the city, because the crime was particularly serious and the impact was extremely bad, the Provincial Political and Legal Committee also intervened in the matter, and Xu Tingge, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, gave instructions that it must be dealt with severely, strictly, and quickly, and severely cracked down on economic crimes.

When Chen Shou heard about this, he immediately launched a relationship dredging, but these old people had long since lost any resources, so they even sent a telegram to Chen Zikun and asked him to intercede.

Chen Zikun made a long-distance call from Beijing to find Zheng Zeru, but the office kept prevaricating, saying that the secretary was in a meeting and had no time to answer the phone.

There was no way, Chen Zikun had no choice but to call Xu Tingge, but Xu Tingge was not polite, answered the phone and said: "I'll talk to you about the old days, just intercede, this case has been included in the internal reference, and the central government knows it, and whoever comes forward is in vain." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Isn't it just a hundred catties of flour and a basket of eggs, and I will double the compensation." ”

Xu Tingge said: "Do you think it's the old society now, everything is spoken with money, in extraordinary times, Chen Shuangxi committed crimes against the wind, the crime is extremely evil, his two sons can't stand it, take the initiative to expose, and now it has been set up by the province as a small hero of righteousness and annihilation, and the activities are very enthusiastic." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Well, I don't ask you for extrajudicial mercy, you can just enforce the law impartially." ”

Xu Tingge said: "You don't need to teach this, *** people have always been fair and selfless, and they will never wronged a good person, nor will they let go of a bad person." ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone, called the secretary in, and arranged for a public trial meeting.

At the scene of the public trial of Chen Shuangxi, Xu Tingge delivered a speech, he took off the script, talked about the hearty place, slapped the table and said: "Some high-ranking and powerful people in Beijing have made long-distance phone calls to intercede, wanting to avoid the death of a corrupt criminal, which is contempt for the people's court and the party's leadership!" I declare that the convicts are sentenced to death, and they will be executed immediately! ”

Chen Shuangxi tied up all kinds of flowers, put him in a car, and drove to the southern suburbs of the execution ground, along the way the crowd threw stones and tiles, smashing his blood, but he didn't say a word.

When he arrived at the execution ground, the condemned prisoner was taken down and knelt on the deserted beach, and the court officers asked him: "What else do you have to say?" ”

Shuangxi said in a hoarse voice: "What should I do with my two children?" ”

The judge said disdainfully: "You can rest assured of this, the state will naturally take care of them." ”

At the same time, in the auditorium of a school in the urban area, thunderous applause sounded, Chen Zhong, a young hero of righteous annihilation, wore a white shirt and blue twill pants around his neck, and wore a bright red scarf around his neck on the podium.

Chen Zhong saluted the thousands of people in the audience, he has now joined the Young Pioneers with honor, and has been exceptionally promoted to the member of the brigade, wearing three bars, Wang Xiaofei no longer dares to despise him.

"Dear leaders, teachers, students, my name is Chen Zhong, I am a student in the fourth and second class of the second primary school of the organ, one day I came home to ......" Chen Zhong told the story of his exposure of his father, and when he resolutely walked into the principal's office, he paused according to the teaching method of his uncle in the Propaganda Department.

The audience once again burst into applause.

On the execution ground, the public security officer wore a mask, held a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, aimed at the back of Chen Shuangxi's head and pulled the trigger.

Shuangxi knelt on the ground, was shot in the back of the head, and pounced, and the skull was opened by a bullet, mutilated, and red and white all over the ground.

The forensic doctor came forward to inspect and confirm the death, the firing squad cleaned up the mess, and the crowd around was too busy and gradually dispersed.

Shuangxi's wife was sentenced to five years of labor camp and sent to a salt lake farm.

Chen Shou received a bill asking him to pay his brother's five-cent bullet fee.

On the day that Shuangxi's house was taken away by the Housing Authority, the principal took the Chen Zhong brothers to pull things, and seven-year-old Chen Shi didn't know what was going on, looking for his parents everywhere.

"Brother, I miss my father." Chen Shi said.

"We don't have a dad anymore." Chen Shi said.

"What about Mom?"

"Mom went on a business trip far away and it won't be back for a few years."

"What shall we do then?"

"The party is our parents, what are you afraid of."

The principal's family conditions were not good, and it was difficult to take care of the two children, and the Chen Zhong brothers finally lived in a social welfare home.

……

Hunger is spreading, and Kushuijing is the hardest hit area, because of the exaggeration of previous years, all the collective retention and peasant rations have been handed over, and some peasants have secretly hidden grain, which has been searched out by the cadres of the brigade with the basic militia, and not only confiscated, but also tied up and hung for miles.

In the famine year, everyone did not go through, in the past, they could still eat grass roots and bark Guanyin soil, but now because of the great steelmaking, the trees have been cut down, and even the bark has not been eaten, so you can only drink wild vegetable soup every day, and you can walk with a stomach full of water.

Some people want to go out to escape the famine, but find that the main roads are guarded by the backbone militia, and it is strictly forbidden to escape the famine, most people have no choice but to go home and wait for death, and a few people quietly go out on the path, but after a few days they are carried back, and the people are no longer good.

It is said that they ran to the county, wanted to escape by train, but were stopped by the public security, and had nothing to eat in the county seat, and heard that there were sake lees in the drainage ditch of the alcohol factory, so they ran to fish for those old black mud to eat, and they couldn't pull it off after eating, and the county hospital could not treat it, so they could only pull it back and wait for death.

There are funerals in Liangjiazhuang every day, the old people in the village are almost dead, the cause of death is different, but hunger is the big head, the only living nourishment is the production captain and the cook of the big canteen, the village Tiliu is in the hands of others, how can you be hungry.

The landlord's family Liang Pan and Liang Qiao's life was very hard, the mother and son lived in a mud house that was about to collapse, the old lady was dying, Liang Pan held a bowl of water and said: "Mother, drink saliva." ”

Liang Qiaoshi said: "Don't drink it, my mother has lived enough, it's time to go." ”

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed outside, and Liang Pan picked up the shovel and said, "Which dog day is sneaky, come out for me!" ”

No one answered.

Liang Pan carried the shovel out of the house, looked around, there was no one, and then looked at the ground, there was a cloth bag, which was half a bag of sorghum rice.

Liang Pan didn't have time to think about it, so he took the sorghum rice into the house and said, "Mother, I have something to eat!" ”

After cooking half a pot of porridge, the mother and mother devoured it and felt much better.

"Mother, who sent the food?" Liang Pan asked.

"Maybe it's a bodhisattva." Liang Qiaoshi said.

After three days, there was something at the door again, this time it was a roasted pheasant wrapped in lotus leaves!

Liang Qiaoshi was busy kowtowing to thank the Bodhisattva, but Liang Pan didn't believe in God, he said, "Is Dad coming back quietly?" ”
