Fast-forward to the era of cannon fodder

After picking all the mushrooms, both of their backpacks were half full. Yuanchun saw a few yams and said happily, "Ayi, let's dig a yam and stew it with the pheasant."

There is still no sign of the pheasant, but I am already thinking about drinking pheasant, yam and mushroom soup.

Shen Yi left her to dig yams while he went to catch pheasants.

When Yuanchun dug out a yam, he also dug out a pheasant's nest. He not only caught five big pheasants, one male and four females, but also picked up a nest of eggs, more than twenty in total.

Back at the secret base, Yuanchun cooked a pot of pheasant, yam and mushroom soup and heated up a few scallion steamed buns, which were made from a mixture of cornmeal and white flour.

Add oil, salt, and chives.

Very fragrant and delicious.

When the two were enjoying delicious food in the secret base, gossip about Yuanchun began to spread in the village, saying that Yuanchun was too picky and looked down on everyone.

When Yuanchun went down the mountain, she met Wang Mazi.

Wang Mazi stared at her grimly, spat at her and walked away.

Yuanchun's face was filled with anger as if a group of crows were rising. However, as a woman, if she really fought with an old bachelor, no matter whether she won or lost, she would be the one who would suffer.

So, she endured it.

But Shen Yi, who was walking ten meters behind her, saw this scene and his cold eyes fell on Wang Mazi for a long time before they moved away.

That night, Wang Mazi was put into a sack and beaten on his way back from playing cards outside. Both of his legs were broken.

The next morning, Yuanchun went up the mountain. When she passed the outer edge of the back mountain, she heard several little girls from the same village who were picking mushrooms talking about it. Only then did she know about this matter.

Her first reaction was that Shen Yi must have done it.

Yesterday evening, when she met Wang Mazi, she felt a murderous aura emanating from Shen Yi.

When Yuanchun saw Shen Yi in the secret base, she asked him about the guess in her mind.

Shen Yi was silent for a while before he said, "At 11 o'clock last night, he came out of Widow Wang's house and did not go home, but walked towards your house."

An old bachelor who was rejected by her and had a grudge against her wanted to sneak into her house in the middle of the night. It was obvious that he was not doing a good thing.

If Wang Mazi really broke into the home of a young girl like her, no matter what she did, if the news got out, her innocence would be gone.

Yuanchun gave a thumbs up and said, "Well done. Just breaking his legs is too easy for him. A beast like him should be crippled and unable to stand up for the rest of his life."

"Ah."

"Ok?"

"I see."

The man said in a low voice again.

What does he know?

Yuanchun was confused, and then she reacted. She hurriedly said, "Ayi, I'm just talking. Don't really hit him. If someone sees you, your family won't be able to live in Hongqi Village anymore."

"No one will see it."

He always does things cautiously and will not take action unless he is absolutely sure.

Yuanchun was still worried, "Ayi, don't take risks for me. You know the Shen family can't afford any harm right now."

"Okay, then I won't go."

However, three days later, Wang Mazi was beaten again, and the leg bone that had just been connected was smashed to pieces and could not be glued together again.

Wang Mazi became a disabled person.

A disabled person with crippled legs.

A waste who will spend his whole life lying in bed.

This incident was so serious that it alarmed the public security comrades, but Wang Mazi had offended so many people that even he himself didn't know who the person who beat him was.

The public security comrades investigated for half a month but did not find any clues, and finally the matter was left unresolved.

After Wang Mazi became disabled, he was abandoned by his family.
