Chapter 192: Tighten Your Waist
It’s not like I haven’t tightened my belt before.
With food, everyone worked harder. They no longer went up the mountain, but instead focused on clearing the silt from all the fields and planting the seeds first.
Even if we have food, we can’t do without vegetables!
Gu Wan was very grateful to have the job of a warehouse manager, otherwise she would have to go to the fields and carry such heavy mud, which looked so tiring.
These days the girls are not very strong, so two of them have to carry a load together. They can’t eat well and it’s very hard both mentally and physically.
Fortunately, on the fifth day, the team leader finally organized a meeting and confirmed the distribution of relief supplies. The worries of the past few days were finally relieved, and many people burst into tears in the square.
Gu Wan looked at everyone crying with joy, and suddenly felt unprecedented satisfaction. She even suddenly understood the persistence of Zhao Congyi and his parents.
The days returned to normal, and every day went on as usual, peaceful and fulfilling. During this time, Zhao Congyi sent her two more letters.
The ditches in the village were also thoroughly dug, the water level dropped, and the fields that were buried in yellow mud were exposed.
These days, everyone has been clearing the silt, picking it out from the farmland bucket by bucket, and finally we are seeing some results.
But her happiness did not last long, as a team of police officers came to her door, led by the branch secretary.
Gu Wan looked at the person in front of her, somewhat confused.
Not to mention Gu Wan, even the village party secretary was a little confused. However, the police had come and asked him to help lead the way, so there was no way he wouldn't lead the way!
They asked around along the way, but none of the police officers showed any interest in speaking.
"Comrade, what are you doing?"
"Hello, comrade. Here are our credentials. We have received a report and may need your cooperation in making a trip."
The public security comrades spoke in a businesslike manner. Gu Wan looked at their calm faces and upright postures and felt that they were not like ordinary public security officers.
More like a soldier, she pursed her lips and nodded.
"I see. I'll go with you guys then!"
"Thank you for your hard work, comrade. You may need to take all your belongings and leave with us."
Gu Wan frowned, and instantly understood why they were looking for her, and her heart relaxed.
Fortunately, she had made some preparations beforehand, otherwise it would have been terrible.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go clean it up."
"No, comrade, let us help you clean up!"
Fang Haisheng looked at her with a sense of fear, and kept wondering in his head what she had done wrong to deserve such a search by the police.
"Then thank you for your help. My things are all in the first room. Just help me pack them up."
The other person nodded and said to the other person:
"You take Comrade Gu to wait in the car, we will be here soon." After saying that, he looked at Gu Wan again, and said in a more relaxed tone:
"Don't worry too much. Your grandfather knows about this, and Comrade Gu also said it. Just come with us."
Gu Wan had not expected that this matter would actually alarm her grandfather. She didn't know what the man had reported about her, and she didn't know whether it would have any impact on her grandfather. But this was not the time to ask more questions. She could only nod and follow the man out of the village.
The car was parked at the entrance of the village for fear of entering the village in a ostentatious manner, which would attract a lot of attention and have a bad impact on Gu Wan.

On the other side, the village party secretary watched Gu Wan being taken away, and he had to stand here and accompany several comrades to pack up Gu Wan's things.
He didn't need to do anything. He was here just to serve as a witness.
Fang Haisheng's face looked a little bad. He was afraid that if there was no evidence, the police would not come to arrest him. The village party secretary's face suddenly became gloomy.
I couldn't stop complaining about Gu Wan in my heart.
These educated youth have been really restless lately. They can’t even take care of food every day, and they have to worry about all these things. I just hope this incident won’t affect their food distribution.
Soon, several comrades packed up Gu Wan's things, locked the door, and then left.
Before leaving, he also gave Fang Haisheng some advice, asking him not to talk nonsense outside, as the matter was currently only in the investigation stage.
Everyone thinks it is impossible, but since the masses have reported it, we have no choice but to investigate.
The most important thing is that the man said too many things, otherwise they would not have joined in such a fuss.
But what is basically certain is that Gu Wan is a good person, so we shouldn't make things too difficult for her.
When Fang Haisheng heard the public security comrade's instructions before leaving, he immediately thought more. At his age, he knew that there must be room for turning this matter around.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked him to help keep it a secret and make it so complicated.
After seeing them off, he turned around and was unexpectedly met with Xiao Wen's inquiring eyes, which scared him.
He stroked his chest and said in shock:
"Xiao Zhiqing, what are you doing? You scared me, why don't you go to work!"
"Did the police just take Gu Zhiqing away?"
Fang Haisheng was stunned, looked her up and down, and frowned:
"This is none of your business, just go to work!"
Fang Haisheng avoided answering and knew that he was not mistaken. He pursed his lips, then raised his head and said:
"Secretary, please help me get a certificate and a letter of introduction. I have been having dreams these days. I even beat someone up a few days ago while sleepwalking. My hysteria seems to be getting worse. I would like to ask for leave to go and see a doctor."
Fang Haisheng also heard about her sleepwalking and beating people, but he did not doubt her words, but asked:
"Can you do it alone?"
"I'm sober now, there's no problem. Secretary, please write me a note. I'm afraid it will be troublesome if I delay for too long."
Fang Haisheng nodded, and without thinking too much, he took his people to the village branch to get a note. Xiao Wen took her things and left the village directly.
The village chief was not afraid that she would run away. These days you need a letter of introduction to go anywhere, otherwise you would be considered an illegal resident and would be arrested. No one would be so desperate.
Xiao Wen and Gu Wan's departure and disappearance did not attract anyone's attention. Even Liu Qingcheng only came to ask once, and after being fooled by Liu Xie'e, he never asked again.
The most important thing is that she was arranged to meet the parents.
On the other side, Gu Wan was taken directly to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and met many people from the army along the way.
Her guess was correct. The people who came to pick her up were indeed soldiers in disguise. As for the reason, Gu Wan could probably guess it.
She was placed in a room with walls on all sides and no windows.
There were a lot of people who came to interrogate her, four or five of them came in at a time. It was obvious that they were doing this as a routine, and they probably had indeed examined her.
