Chapter 37: Death Penalty
On the second day, just after daybreak, the Changhong Brigade's radio sounded, even earlier than the crowing of a rooster.
"Comrades of the Changhong Brigade, the meeting will begin at 7 o'clock this morning. Please be sure to attend."
Secretary Liu's tired voice came from the radio.
Last night, he and his comrades from the militia platoon worked until two or three in the morning, interrogating the three male educated youth and Zhan Hongyan separately. After understanding the whole story clearly, Secretary Liu almost vomited blood.
"This Zhan Hongyan is simply outrageous. She is bringing out the old society's ways!"
After liberation, the state banned brothels completely. Those who used to do this kind of business had to keep a low profile and dared not go back to their old ways. They carefully concealed their dishonorable identities. Unexpectedly, their Changhong Brigade had a solo exhibition of beauties.
What a "talent" he is. He actually took the initiative to come to the educated youth to sell things to her. Oh my god, three people at a time!
It's even messier than a mass grave!
The Changhong Brigade has produced such a person. If this matter were to be spread out, it would be a great shame and humiliation!
Secretary Liu did not dare to waste time and rushed to the Public Security Bureau without stopping, requesting that Huang Jianjun be escorted over so that the matter could be quickly concluded while the meeting was held early in the morning, and the scandal would not be spread to other brigades as much as possible.
In the 70s, in order to popularize the law, criminals were usually brought out for meetings to serve as a warning, which is equivalent to the current live broadcast of court trials on certain audio platforms.
However, at the conferences in the 70s, the masses and criminals were face to face, and the scenes were more intuitive. There were even death row prisoners who were executed on the spot after the conferences so that the masses could see that the criminals would be shot, thus achieving the purpose of warning.
"Grandma, were you woken up too?" Zhan Xinyue was worried about her grandma. They slept in the same room last night, and if the old lady had a headache or fever at night, she could provide treatment immediately.
"Yeah." Grandma Sheng yawned.
"Grandma, is your head still hurting? How do you feel? Are you feeling any other discomfort in your body?" Zhan Xinyue asked several questions in a row.
"I'm fine. I feel much better after a good night's sleep. Xinyue, the medicine you used is very good."
After coming back last night, Zhan Xinyue cleaned grandma's wound, applied herbal medicine again, and boiled some internal medicine for grandma to drink.
"That's good." Zhan Xinyue placed her fingers on the old woman's pulse and took them away after a minute. Only when she was sure that grandma was indeed not feeling unwell did she feel relieved.
"Grandma, there will be a lot of people at the conference and the air is bad. You don't have to go. Take a nap at home. I will ask Secretary Liu for leave."
"Okay." The old lady nodded. She was old, and although the hit on her head was not a big deal, she did need to rest.
Zhan Xinyue nodded and opened the window, letting the cool morning breeze blow in and dispel the smell of medicine in the room.
Grandma continued to sleep, Zhan Xinyue went to the kitchen to boil the medicine and made breakfast. When the medicine was ready, Zhan Xinyue took out the medicine and brought it to grandma's room, waking her up to drink the medicine.
"Grandma, breakfast is warming in the pot. If you can't eat now, you can eat later. I'm going to the brigade headquarters and will be back right after the meeting."
"Okay, go to the meeting with peace of mind. Don't worry about me." Grandma looked better and waved her hand with a smile.
The broadcast sounded again, urging everyone to hurry to the brigade headquarters. Zhan Xinyue and her five mouthfuls of food finished two steamed cakes, drank three mouthfuls of porridge, and followed the crowd towards the brigade headquarters. In less than five minutes, they arrived at the front square of the brigade headquarters. At this time, almost everyone was there.
In the countryside at 7 o'clock in the summer, it's not really hot. But there are so many people on the playground, and the carbon dioxide exhaled increases, so it's hot.
Some people who don't care about hygiene may not take a shower for a week in the middle of summer. They have bad breath, sweat, body odor, and urine all mixed together. The smell is simply terrible.
Zhan Xinyue stood in the crowd and almost suffocated. For the sake of her lungs, Zhan Xinyue moved her feet and walked towards where there were more women, away from the sweaty smell of men.
"Aunt Liu, do you know why we are holding a meeting today?" a woman asked mysteriously.
Where there are women, there is gossip. As soon as Zhan Xinyue approached, she heard everyone talking about what happened last night.
"I know." Aunt Liu blinked, "My husband went to rescue someone last night. Zhan Hongyan did something shameful and was caught by Captain Sheng's grandmother. Zhan Hongyan was afraid that the old lady would tell others about it, so she wanted to silence her."
"Ah, what shameful thing did Zhan Hongyan do?" the women who didn't know the inside story asked anxiously.
"My husband said that Zhan Hongyan had sex with three men. My husband said that when they went there, Zhan Hongyan's jacket was still hanging on Fang Jiaming's waist. Zhan Hongyan was, well, you know, drooling. I've said before that Zhan Hongyan is a slut at first glance, but you still don't believe it."
The short-haired woman who asked the first question was very excited, as if she was there.
Chen Juxiang was also in the crowd. Her face was stained, her hair was messy, and her eyes were numb.
Last night, Zhan Aiguo was pulled out of bed by Secretary Liu and scolded, saying that he did not fulfill his responsibilities as a father, did not educate Zhan Hongyan well, and did such a shameful thing, bringing shame to the entire Changhong Brigade.
Zhan Aiguo didn't dare to resist Secretary Liu. As soon as the others left, he pinned Chen Juxiang down and beat her up, especially on her face, which was covered with bruises of all colors.
"Hey, isn't this the celebrity in our brigade, Zhan Hongyan's biological mother, Comrade Chen Juxiang?"
Aunt Liu was very weird. She gave birth to three daughters, and the men in the family never said anything. However, Chen Juxiang ridiculed her many times, saying that she was not destined to have a son and that no one would see her off when she died.
"Aunt Juxiang, why are you silent? Didn't you always say that you were pregnant and had both a son and a daughter? Hahaha, now it seems that your stomach is indeed "pretty good" and gave birth to the first death row prisoner in our Changhong Brigade after liberation!"
Aunt Liu's husband is a militiaman. It was he who accompanied Secretary Liu to the Public Security Bureau and learned that Zhan Hongyan had been sentenced to death.
In the 70s, the death penalty was very simple and was heard by a special committee. Coincidentally, when Secretary Liu arrived at the Public Security Bureau, he happened to meet the director in charge who was also handling the case at the Public Security Bureau. Secretary Liu explained Zhan Hongyan's situation one by one.
The director was furious after hearing this. They had finally abolished the brothel, but someone actually committed crimes in defiance of the law and even beat up the headmaster's grandmother with the intention of silencing her. He was so angry that he sentenced Zhan Hongyan to death and executed her immediately.
Aunt Liu's husband was at the scene. After hearing what happened, he came back and told his wife immediately.
"What did you say?" Chen Juxiang's numb eyes became anxious and she grabbed Aunt Liu's hands and shook them hard.
"My daughter is going to be sentenced to death? How is that possible? What should I do? She said she wanted me to live a good life. What should I do if she dies?"
