Strict Wife Of The ’70s Manages The Household - Chapter 829
After that, he said to the Brigade Leader, “If there is such a thing in the future, you will be whipped back. Have all the cadres died off? Are we still playing the same tricks like our ancestors did 800 years ago? I will make it clear today that if a man dies young and leaves his wife, children or younger siblings behind, the brigade will help them out. We can arrange a long-term working opportunity for the wife to earn work points while the more capable children could also earn some work points. At the end of the year, we will also give them some food subsidies. At any rate, we will allow no one to starve to their deaths in this community.”
Finally, he added, “If the women want to remarry, it’s their own business. As long as the children are properly cared for or arranged into the hands of a competent guardian, no one will have the right to interfere.”
His words were formed in a rather avant-garde manner, making a lot of the men start to frown.
Lin Lan smiled.
Liu Wenhu pulled the village doctor to testify that Liu Erhu was going to die. He wanted to prove that he didn’t kill his brother and that Yanyan was merely spouting nonsense.
The doctor said slowly, “Liu Erhu was seriously ill and he wouldn’t have made it past this year. However, I wasn’t there in the afternoon, so I don’t know if you actually strangled him or not.”
What if you’d sped things up since he might have died too slowly?
Liu Wenhu, “Y-you, you! Why are you putting it that way?!”
The village doctor immediately said, “A person’s life and death are both determined by fate. Their wealth and honour, on the other hand, are in the hands of God. Everyone has their own destiny…”
“Okay, that’s about enough, ” Liu Guifa pulled him away. Gosh, was he a doctor or a shaman? Why is he always going about a person’s life and death or wealth and honour?
The doctor smiled and said, “If you don’t want me to say anything more, I’ll stop talking.”
Han Yongfang would not blindly favour the weak. Although Yanyan had accused Liu Wenhu, there was no evidence to justify her claims. On the surface, this was just a child’s angry words, so she wouldn’t be taken seriously.
After all, Wu Caixian did not file a complaint, which means that Liu Erhu had died on his own according to her beliefs.
But Yanyan’s shouting truly scared Liu Wenhu. He dared not even visit the house in the future out of fear of unruly rumours spreading across the community, let alone move in to stay.
With Han Yongfang in charge, the matter was easy to solve. Wu Caixian could earn a living by doing a long-term job in the brigade as long as she was diligent. In addition, if the village could not help alleviate her struggles, then they could at least get her to help in terms of labour and earn some rations.
Lin Lan wondered why Han Yongfang glanced at her vaguely when he said this?
I solved my own problems back then too!
After hearing the brigade’s arrangements and seeing that they supported her, Yanyan knelt down and kowtowed to Han Yongfang several times.
The Brigade Leader immediately picked her up and said, “This is not a thing in our new society. It will be bad if word gets out and causes misunderstandings.”
