Rebirth: 1977

When Ye Tianshui took A Ping out of the village chief's house, Wu Pingtao and Wang Guangrong finally arrived.

Next to them, cautious and smiling, is the village chief Wang Tujin.

A Ping knew Wang Guangrong but not Wu Pingtao. She was so scared that she hid beside Ye Tianshui, trembling all over.

"Brother Tao, you are here. This woman who was snatched away by the village chief Wang Tujin as his daughter-in-law is Yi Haiping's marriage partner.

Secretary Wang Guangrong should also be aware of this.

They colluded with each other, abducted women, destroyed military marriages, beat up the parents and brothers of active-duty soldiers, and even locked them up at home without allowing them to receive medical treatment.

You decide what to do with these matters. If I am not satisfied with the handling of these matters, I will do as I please.

Now, come with me to check on the injured and try to treat them as soon as possible."

Wu Pingtao knew that something must have happened, but he didn't expect things to be like this. This was a blatant crime!

He glared at Wang Guangrong fiercely and did not look at Wang Tujin, whose face was as pale as earth.

To be honest, strictly speaking, they are breaking the law knowingly.

However, in remote areas and mountain valleys, not many people understand the law.

In other words, the "law" is in the hands of a few of them. The village chief can decide the life and death of all the villagers here.

No exaggeration at all.

The village chief is their god, who dares to resist? How far can they go if they want to make trouble?

The commune secretary is the highest-ranking official they can meet, but no commune secretary will speak up for an ordinary citizen.

If the village chief did not have the secret support of the commune leaders behind him, he would not dare to act so recklessly.

To put it another way, the commune secretary needs the support of these village heads in order to secure his position.

They are of the same blood, or grasshoppers tied to the same rope, a community of interests.

In Wang Guangrong's eyes, there was nothing evil in what Wang Tujin did.

What's wrong with finding a daughter-in-law that your son likes?

Your Yi family hasn't married her yet, so whoever marries her doesn't matter, right?

Even if you marry me, can't you still get divorced?

The woman doesn’t want to?

Where in their mountains can you find so many loving couples who are willing to be together?

Things settled down after I got married and had kids.

It's not new to spend money to buy a wife from far away.

The key is to deceive those below you and conceal the truth from those above you.

It doesn't matter if they know, as long as no one sues or makes a scene in front of them.

Leaders are responsible for doing big things, so how can they have so much time and energy to care about your trivial matters?

If Bian Kang were in the position of county party secretary, he would still turn a blind eye and not punish these things.

In my previous life, this incident was actually a much more serious matter.

Yi Haiping did not return home to marry within the agreed time, but went to the battlefield.

When he returned home after being rewarded for his achievements and promoted, he found out that his family had been destroyed!

A Ping did not survive and committed suicide.

His younger brother and father are dead, and his mother is disabled!

Just because Yi Haiping went to the front line and lost contact with his family, he didn't get any information at all.

Until he returned home, the fellow villagers whom he had protected with his blood gave him a heavy blow!

As a platoon leader, he had no power to seek revenge, but luckily this incident angered his comrades.

After being uploaded layer by layer, it finally reached the leader who had control over these people, and only then did Yi Haiping get revenge.

But in the end, the die is cast and the dead are gone.

Ye Tianshui saw this incident in newspaper news in his previous life. At that time, it was only reported publicly after the injustice was redressed.

So when Ye Tianshui saw the young and energetic Yi Haiping, he always felt that there was some impression of him in his heart, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

After he asked about Yi Haiping's hometown and heard him happily talk about his marriage partner, Ye Tianshui suddenly remembered.

He thought he still had time to stop it, because, in his previous life, this happened a year later.

Who would have known that his rebirth would change the timing of the gears of fate for many people.

Now, Yi Haiping's future wife has been rescued, but what about his parents and brother? What is their current situation?

Is it still too late to save him?

Only then did Ye Tianshui understand why some of Yi Haiping's family members died or were disabled. It turned out that Wang Tujin had beaten them and refused to allow anyone to get medical treatment!

A Ping brought Ye Tianshui and the others to Yi's house. Looking at the iron chain wrapped around the dilapidated door, her eyes turned red.

"Help, is there anyone who can save my son?"

The cries for help from the house were intermittent, hoarse and weak, and it was obvious that the person calling for help was exhausted.

Ye Tianshui really wanted to kick the door hard and break in, but he thought of the person calling for help behind the door.

Moreover, the wind was howling in the cold, and the door was broken, and it couldn't be repaired in a short time.

"Brother Tao, calm the people inside. Jun, go and see if there's an axe or something that can break the lock.

Wang Guangrong, you must call the doctor over as soon as possible!

If anything happens to the people inside, your life will be over too!"

Ye Tianshui made prompt decisions and gave orders one by one.

Every word spoken to Wang Guangrong was as cold as ice, penetrating into his bones.

Wu Pingtao felt ashamed. Although he had not been in Meihua County for long, this incident was not his responsibility.

But such a shameless and despicable thing actually happened within his jurisdiction!

“Uncle Yi, we are here to rescue you, please move away from the door so we can come in and save you.

Don't worry, I'm the new county magistrate Wu Pingtao, I will definitely make the decision for your family!"

Ah Ping also cried and shouted:

"Grandpa, grandma, it's Ping. County Magistrate Wu is here to save us!"

Chen Jun didn't find an axe, but he found a machete. Without Ye Tianshui's instructions, he started chopping at the iron chain.

Clank, clank, the iron chain was cut in a few strokes. Sun Hongliang slowly pushed the door open, worried that someone behind the door would be knocked down.

My godfather did retreat to a place farther away from the door, but he sat on the ground, listlessly looking up at the person who walked into his house.

"A Ping, is this really you? Are you okay? Did the Wang family let you go?"

He asked in a low, unsteady voice, awkwardly.

"Grandpa, I'm really back. It was this leader who saved me. County Magistrate Wu is here too.

Get up quickly, the ground is cold and you will get sick."

A Ping wanted to help her adoptive father, but she herself was covered in wounds, so how could she have the strength to help a grown man?

Sun Hongliang hurried forward and helped him up:

“Hello, Uncle Yi, our Master and Magistrate Wu have come personally to rescue you.

Don't worry, County Magistrate Wu will definitely take care of your family's affairs from now on, and won't let anyone bully you anymore."

"Thank you! Thank you County Magistrate Wu and the leaders. Please save my little son. He has been in a coma with a high fever for a long time."

Mother Yi ran out of the room and saw so many people coming. She didn't recognize any of them. She just hugged Ping and cried:

"Poor child, I'm sorry for making you suffer. Ali is still unconscious, what should we do? Let's let Ping go home. When he goes home, no one will dare to bully us!"

Ye Tianshui looked at the dilapidated house with wind blowing in from all sides. Everything in the house was old and broken.

I feel indescribable feeling in my heart.

He knew that in such mountainous areas and many remote areas, the majority of people lived below the poverty line.

He is not a savior and cannot save so many people.

It’s just that Yi Haiping just happened to be connected with him, so he had to help.

The people of Wangjiaping Village were heartbroken when they saw that they knew the situation of Yi's family but were unwilling to lend a helping hand.

Perhaps, it is poverty that really limits their humanity?

He turned to look at Wang Guangrong, who was standing at the door with his head down and dared not say a word, and asked:

"Is the doctor here? The eldest son of the Yi family is defending his country, but you are bullying his family while enjoying peace.

Wang Guangrong, as the commune secretary, you should know about the beastly things Wang Tujin has done, right?

Do you still want to protect him? Or, what benefits did he give you?

Open your eyes and look at this poor military family. I want to ask you, how much government relief subsidy is given to them every year?"

Ah Ping, who was wiping her tears while hugging her adopted mother, angrily accused:

"Brother Aping has never received any government subsidies, but the village chief's family receives subsidies every year, the highest in the village!"
