Chapter 261: Confrontation at the Village Entrance
Sun Xiaoyu was still worried, so after Qu Lingling left, she turned around and went to look for Gu Mingyue.
"fine."
Hearing Gu Mingyue's simple two words, Sun Xiaoyu felt relieved and took out the talisman paper. "This is what Qu Lingling asked me to hide in your house when I had the chance."
"Oh, you really put a lot of thought into it. This thing is hard to find now. Give it to me, so that I can give her a big gift when the time comes."
Seeing that Sun Xiaoyu still frowned, Gu Mingyue said to her, "Don't worry, everything is ready. You don't have to show up later. Believe me, we can bring the father and daughter to justice soon. But you should pack your bags when you have time. I think it won't be long before Qu Lingling will betray you and she will question you then. It's unlikely that you can come back after leaving. It's not too late for you to regret now."
"I do not regret."
Gu Mingyue took this opportunity to gather the villagers together.
When Qu Jinzhong drove towards the village entrance, he saw a large group of people in front of him.
He felt uneasy for no reason and turned to ask Qu Lingling, "Did you leak the news?"
"No, I just said I was going to town to buy something. I don't know what they are doing."
Qu Jinzhong asked again, "Are you sure that Gujia Village privately worships an unknown stone?"
Qu Lingling quickly assured, "Dad, I swear, it's absolutely true. A few days ago, I found that the villagers were mumbling nonsense. Look, it's that stone. See? Whose village has a red cloth covering the tombstone? This is feudal superstition!"
Qu Jinzhong looked in the direction of the sound, and although he still felt something was wrong, the arrow was on the string and had to be shot.
This time, skipping Zhang Qianjin and bringing people out is equivalent to breaking up in advance. If he returns empty-handed, all his previous efforts will be wasted. Therefore, today, he is determined to copy Gujia Village.
"Take the thing I gave you with you, and act accordingly. Don't delay. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, you will be held responsible."
Qu Jinzhong looked straight ahead when he spoke, so he didn't notice the unnatural expression on his daughter's face...
Qu Lingling agreed honestly, but she was a little nervous. She thought that Sun Xiaoyu would definitely not dare to betray her. At this time, the bright and beautiful figure in front of her came into view, which made her even more reckless. She cursed inwardly: Wait, Gu Mingyue, this time, I will carve the word "bitch" on your face, and see if you can still smile.
There was a group of people in front of him, and even though Qu Jinzhong wanted to force his way through, he didn't dare to take action.
He brought a total of twenty people this time. After they got off the car one after another, even though they were dressed formally, they looked like scoundrels. They didn't know how to stand or walk properly.
Later, Gu Laoliu and Li Laizi teased, "I will never call you Laizi again. Compared with them, you are the most serious."
"Get lost. I'm a decent man. Don't put me together with those scoundrels. Also, my name is Li Qianjin now. I have a daughter. Don't smear my image. Otherwise, don't blame me for waiting for your son to grow up and telling him about your bad deeds in your early years."
Gu Laoliu got anxious instantly. “Hey, you, I was just talking, it’s so rude of you to do this.”
Gu Guangtao interrupted, "Sixth Uncle, please stop talking. Those people are confronting the Party Secretary."
"It's okay. When have you ever seen your aunt suffer a loss? Didn't you hear Liang Shaoling say that we are only responsible for holding the line today, and others will take the lead."
"Who is it?" Gu Guangtao asked curiously.
Gu Laoliu raised his thumb and index finger and said, "The one who brought this!"
Qu Jinzhong said with a dagger hidden in his smile, "Isn't it possible that Village Chief Gu is waiting for me on purpose?"
"Yes and no. If Director Qu came here with good intentions, we will welcome him. If he is trying to frame me, I will go to the commune to ask the president what is going on. Is it that our Gujia Village has done something wrong and offended Director Qu?"
Qu Jinzhong asked knowingly, "Oh? Where does Village Chief Gu get this from? I don't understand."
"Don't you know? Your daughter is planning to frame my nephew for hooliganism. We have arrested the person involved. We have witnesses and evidence. She will confess soon. If you hadn't come, we would have gone to the town to seek justice!"
Qu Jinzhong secretly glared at Qu Lingling, thinking that she was someone who was always causing trouble but could not do anything for him.
At the same time, he also knew that since the stage had been set up, the play had to go on, so he pretended to be surprised and said, "I'll investigate this matter later. To be honest, I didn't come here for this matter. The Revolutionary Committee received a letter of complaint about Comrade Gu Mingyue, exposing her for promoting feudal superstition. We must punish such things severely. I came here to investigate the truth of the matter. I hope that Village Chief Gu will cooperate."
Gu Mingyue asked, "Oh? Director Qu, are you planning to raid my house by bringing so many people with you?"
What Qu Lingling hated most was her nonchalant face. She couldn't help but look down on her and said, "Why are you pretending? You keep saying that stones are beliefs, gods, and guiding lights. You worship them every day. Do you think I don't know? I've never heard of anyone covering their tombstones with red cloth. Why? Are you embarrassed to be seen?"
Gu Mingyue immediately showed an angry look, "Say it again! I'm telling you, be careful with your words, or you may cause trouble."
Although Qu Jinzhong was disgusted by his daughter's impatience, he felt that he had finally caught her when he saw her so angry. He did not care much about it, but said hypocritically, "Hey, Secretary Gu, what are you talking about? I was half-believing and half-doubting at first, but your performance seems to be confessing."
"Director Qu, each village has its own management model. You've just arrived, so it's better not to interfere easily. Besides, I haven't heard of any regulations that forbid covering the village tombstones with cloth. You're meddling too much."
Qu Lingling walked up to the stone and challenged him, "Then it's okay if I lift up the cloth, right?"
Qu Jinzhong did not stop it and just watched coldly.
Gu Mingyue put on a nervous attitude and shouted, "Stop it! Don't you think you have the qualifications?"
Qu Jinzhong interrupted Qu Lingling and looked up and said, "It's just to lift a piece of cloth. Do you need an identity? Is your village really holding some kind of sacrificial ceremony? I wonder if my identity is enough to qualify?"
Gu Mingyue's face turned cold. "Director Qu, I advise you to respect yourself and not shoot yourself in the foot."
"Haha, now that you mention it I'm even more curious. I want to see what this thing is."
"I'll say it again, it's faith." Gu Mingyue said deliberately, "Director Qu, a hypocritical person like you won't understand."
"Bullshit faith." Qu Jinzhong was so excited that he blurted out, and ordered, "Come here, flatten this stone and throw it into the stinking ditch."
"You dare!" Gu Mingyue shouted.
"Hmph, let's see if I dare. But don't worry, it will be your turn soon. Some of you should dig here, and the rest of you should follow me into the village."
Just as Qu Jinzhong and his men were preparing to take forceful action, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Gu Mingyue's raised mouth, and his hair stood on end for a moment. He didn't know why, but he became more and more nervous...
Suddenly, I heard a clear shout, "Where is the militia?"
