Chapter 188 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
After a morning of training, they had lunch in the canteen of the outpost outside the East City Gate, and then Su Ling sent the two siblings back.
When Lin Zisu returned, she told Lin Youcai and Shen Xianglan about the nightmare she had last night. She wanted to donate the gold hairpin she found to the Big Tree Foundation to help women in need.
Lin Youcai agreed with his daughter's idea without hesitation, "Go ahead!"
Shen Xianglan gently patted Lin Zisu on the back and said, "Your subconscious mind will remind you of their plight, the pain, sadness, fear, and helplessness of such incidents. It is normal to have nightmares when encountering such things. Go ahead, we are relieved that Teacher Su will accompany you."
Lin Zisu took out a golden hairpin wrapped in coarse cloth, stuffed it into her waist bag, got off the RV, mounted her horse and followed Su Ling's horse. The master and disciple walked towards the Xinghai government.
The two brothers and sisters can ride horses, cows, mules and donkeys. Tan Yuanyuan taught them how to ride in the Qingshui City outpost. Every day, they not only exercised and learned martial arts, but also learned archery, driving a cart and riding animals.
The two quickly came to the Xinghai government, and Su Ling took Lin Zisu to find the Women's Federation office. The Dashu Foundation is managed by the Women's Federation department of the Heguo government.
The staff in the Women's Federation are all women, including middle-aged, young and teenagers. Su Ling explained the purpose of the visit, and Lin Zisu took out a gold hairpin wrapped in coarse cloth from her waist bag.
The young female staff weighed the hairpin in front of the two men, recording its style, weight, number of gemstones and color.
Then the staff repeatedly asked Lin Zisu whether she really donated.
Lin Zisu nodded and answered her affirmatively.
After getting a positive answer, the staff picked up pliers and cut the gold hairpin into three sections. From the cut surface, it could be seen that it was a pure gold hairpin, not gold covered with silver.
The purpose of cutting the gold hairpin is that it will be made into small gold bars and placed in the vault of the People's Bank of China. The gold and the gems inlaid on it will be exchanged for money, which will be given to women in need.
The country did not allow gold and silver to flow out. The people of the country had flat heads for men and short hair for women, and few of them could afford such a gold hairpin.
After registering the donation, signing her name and stamping her fingerprints, Lin Zisu walked out of Qingshui Government carrying a bag of women's products and a donation certificate.
The two masters and apprentices returned to Qingxi Town, and Lin Zisu poured a glass of cold and sweet plum water for her teacher. Su Ling drank the cold and sweet plum water, chatted with the Lin family for a few words, rode one horse, and led another horse back.
The foundation has already been laid on the land of Lin Zisu's home. In the evening, Lin Zisu had time to check the bag of women's products that were donated. The bag was embroidered with the words "Big Tree Foundation".
She opened the bag and found two cotton towels, three pairs of cotton briefs, 10 packs of daily sanitary napkins and five packs of night sanitary napkins. There were small words "Big Tree Foundation" embroidered on the towels and pants, and "Big Tree Foundation Sanitary Napkins" were printed on the oil paper wrapping the sanitary napkins.
Lin Zisu checked it and packed it, then handed it to her mother. She was 12 years old and had not yet had her period. "You can use it! Try the sanitary napkins made here and see if they are any good!"
Since arriving in Heguo, Lin Zisu no longer used small wooden sticks and large leaves to wipe her butt. Toilet paper and feminine hygiene products were sold in Qingshui City. The price was not cheap, but women could afford it by working to earn money.
Shen Xianglan took it, took out the towel and underwear, and put the sanitary napkin in the cabinet under the bed. She had used up all the sanitary napkins in the RV in April. Fortunately, the menstrual volume of this body was not large, so she saved it and managed to survive until the country. She never thought that the country had these daily necessities.
There are shampoo, bath soap, laundry soap, natural dishwashing liquid, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc. Although it is different from modern detergent products, the effects are the same and it is made of pure natural materials.
A week later, it was already mid-July. The walls of all 7 households were completed, and the foundation of Lin Zisu's house was also built, waiting for the carpenters to start building the house.
The two siblings learned from Su Ling that the rescued woman had two operations that went well. The woman would have to stay in the hospital for at least a year to recover from her injuries. The woman was a local, with no elders in her family, and only a younger sister who depended on her for survival. The police found her sister on the day she was rescued, and her sister packed her luggage and went to Qingshui City with her.
Another woman was fished out from downstream, and the bodies of two women were lying in the morgue of the police station. The surviving woman knew who the three men were among the seven people. She was not familiar with them, but she had seen them in the neighboring village and knew their names.
The truth of the rape and murder case was soon revealed, and all the criminals were caught.
The whole story was that seven local men finished their work at a construction site at night and got together to drink. They lived in a village a little outside the city. Three young women were returning home from another construction site and had to pass through this village. There were quite a few people returning together, and the women felt at ease, and from time to time they encountered patrols on night patrols.
After drinking, the seven men became bolder. When they saw the young woman passing by, the bad thoughts that they dared not have during the day, after drinking, only ran into their evil thoughts.
The seven men followed the group in the dark until the crowd parted and people went home. The three women lived near each other and often went home together. When they were about to get home, just ten meters away, the seven men covered their mouths and noses and dragged them away.
The three women were beaten half to death. When the other two women were tied up, another woman took the opportunity to jump into the river. She grew up by the river and was good at swimming, but she was unlucky. When she jumped into the river, her leg was broken by a rock.
She endured the severe pain, dived down, and swam downstream. No one came to look for her, either because it was too dark or because they were sure she was dead.
She didn't swim too far, hiding behind a rock. The rock blocked the other woman who was washed down, and she dragged her back to the shore. There was another woman, and she didn't know where she was washed up.
She dragged her injured leg to the shore and waited for dawn, which was only two hours away. She dared to call for help when she saw the dawn, because there must be people taking the official road to go to school or work in the morning.
When the government announced this incident, the people all lamented the misfortune of the rescued woman, but she was also lucky and had a strong desire to survive, so she escaped.
It’s a pity for the other two women.
The Information Plaza had pillars erected, and seven people were hung on the pillars with their hands tied tightly. Their feet were tied tightly off the ground, and rocks were tied to the leg ropes, making them fall down.
Schools and work were suspended throughout the city, and the staff organized people from inside and outside the city to go to the city's information square to watch the public execution. Men, women, young and old all watched, even if they dared not to.
The police chief went on stage and read out the crimes of the seven people one by one in front of the people. What are the consequences of the above crimes?
The seven men were first stripped naked and hung for a whole night. After the police chief explained the crimes of the seven men, the executioner of the Dahuan Dynasty was hired again to carry out public castration.
The seven people were not gagged and their screams resounded through the sky.
After waiting for the seven people to be in excruciating pain for two hours, they were woken up by a bucket of cold water and then tortured to death by having their flesh cut into pieces one by one.
The common people did nothing all day but watch the execution. Suddenly, everyone felt that being punished to dig coal was "happiness".
The town mayor, village head, and fellow villagers all had their political review points deducted. The family members and close relatives of the seven people all had their political review points deducted, their property confiscated, and all their benefits canceled.
Afterwards, for a week, the Xinghai government dispatched more than ten vehicles to drive around the city every day. Staff members on the vehicles held loudspeakers and read the contents of the paper.
