Chapter 248 The Fate of the Liu Family

"Hey, have you heard? The Liu family is in big trouble."

"What's wrong? Tell me quickly!"

"..."

Similar conversations have been occurring not only in the Hongqi Brigade in recent days, but have also spread rapidly to several nearby brigades.

Among all the families in the surrounding area over the years, the Liu family is the only one whose entire household has been arrested and taken away by public officials.

The former landlords and rich peasants in the company who had been "removed from the list" no longer stirred up any interest in talking; everyone was discussing the changes in the Liu family.

"I heard it's because his family made a fortune from the time they bought a child bride!" A villager sat under a big tree at the village entrance, holding a water jug ​​and speaking mysteriously.

Another aunt was somewhat skeptical and questioned, "That can't be, can it? I heard that other brigades have similar situations, so how come none of them got arrested?"

"Oh my, that family treated their child bride very well. After their son grew up, he had several children with her, and their lives were no worse than others."

"But everyone knows what kind of life Ugly Girl lived in the Liu family before, right? Not to mention that the Liu family sold her off later, they practically left her no way to survive!"

A burly middle-aged woman stood with her hands on her hips, talking animatedly with spittle flying everywhere.

"If you ask me, the Liu family deserved it. Even our superiors couldn't stand how much they tormented people, so they arrested the whole family and sent them to labor reform."

The others chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes, they really need to be reformed, their old-fashioned Huang Shiren mentality should be reformed."

"His stupid son once stole my eggs, and when I caught him red-handed, he wouldn't admit it!"

"Can even an idiot be subjected to labor reform?"

The villagers continued to criticize the Liu family's various faults as they gathered together. Zhao Zhaodi, carrying buckets of water, passed by and greeted the villagers she encountered with a cheerful smile.

Her life has been much better since the Liu family of three was arrested and taken away a few days ago.

Actually, the Liu family wasn't bad off. For many years, Granny Liu relentlessly exploited Lin Jincheng and loved to take advantage of the villagers.

He was like a miser, only taking in money and never giving it out, and accumulated a large sum of savings.

He hadn't heard a word about it before he was arrested, or maybe he had but didn't take it seriously; in any case, everything happened very suddenly.

Before Granny Liu could hide the money, coupons, grain, and oil, all of these resources ended up benefiting Zhao Zhaodi.

Although Zhao Zhaodi was also bought, she had held a wedding banquet with Liu Yaozu and was Liu's officially recognized daughter-in-law.

So after the village chief and the Party secretary came to Zhao Zhaodi's house to ask for her opinion, they allowed her to continue living there.

Yes, although the Liu family of three is unlikely to return, Zhao Zhaodi plans to settle down in Hongqi Brigade and start a new life there.

She doesn't plan to find a husband or remarry immediately, nor does she plan to go back to her parents' home.

There was no place for her to stay in her maternal home. Even if she went back, she would only be sold again by her stepmother and father.

It would be better to stay with the Liu family.

The Liu family were outsiders and had no relatives in the area.

Furthermore, because Liu Yaozu was mentally challenged, and Liu's wife and husband were generally disliked, they didn't even have any close friends or relatives living there.

This led to the situation where, when the Liu family was in trouble, no one offered to help, but no one stepped forward to act like an elder and interfere with Zhao Zhaodi's affairs.

Because her marriage was arranged through a middleman, Zhao Zhaodi's family in the mountains did not know where she had married.

This also has its advantages; even if Zhao Zhaodi lives a good life, her family won't be able to take advantage of her.

Given these unique circumstances on both sides, Zhao Zhaodi is free.

Although the village took back the Liu family's homestead, she was still allowed to live in the house that had already been built.

In other words, she can continue to live in the Liu family's house, even if she doesn't own the land, she still has the right to use the house.

As long as Zhao Zhaodi is willing, she can live there indefinitely, but it cannot be demolished and rebuilt.

She can move away when the house collapses years later or when she finds a better place to live.

But that's decades from now. The Liu family's house is sturdy, and Zhao Zhaodi estimates that she can live there for another twenty or thirty years without any problem.

With her accommodation sorted out, Zhao Zhaodi breathed a sigh of relief.

She wasn't afraid of hardship or fatigue; her only fear was not having a roof over her head.

It seems that she received special care from above, as the village chief and the Party secretary took great care of Zhao Zhaodi.

She lived alone in the Liu family's small courtyard, regularly participating in the village's collective labor. She went to work in the early morning and finished work in the evening, carrying the savings that Granny Liu had accumulated over the years. She lived a comfortable and fulfilling life.

In just a few days, Zhao Zhaodi's demeanor has changed completely; she has become much more lively and cheerful.

Before, she was like a withered, faded, silent shadow in the village, but now she has begun to actively communicate with people.

Although she is still thin, she has a lot of energy.

Only when the bad guys get the punishment they deserve can the lives of the innocent be restored to peace and tranquility.

I believe that Zhao Zhaodi's life will get better and better in the future.
