Because of her performance at the full moon party, Jia Zhang, who was originally going to the northwest to reclaim wasteland, was sent by He Ping'an to a desert hundreds of kilometers away to plant trees for labor reform, which was also considered as a care for her. However, the desertification control at that time did not have the conditions of later generations. In addition, as a labor reform prisoner, Jia Zhang had no treatment at all, and you can imagine how she felt.

After Banggeng's full moon celebration in 1953, Jia Zhang was escorted to the desert for forced labor.

"Wang Jinhua, this new prisoner has been assigned to your group. You will be in charge of her from now on!" A guard took Jia Zhang to a wooden house, said a few words to the people inside, and turned and left.

"What crime did you commit to get you in prison?" After the guard left, the prisoner named Wang Jinhua winked at the men around him. The prisoner understood, walked up to Jia Zhang, looked her up and down, and said arrogantly.

"How I got in is none of your business. Get out of the way. A good dog doesn't block the road!" Jia Zhang, who had just arrived at the labor camp, still followed the style of the Siheyuan and wanted to continue to show off in the labor camp. She pushed the person aside, chose a clean bunk, and put her luggage on it without caring whether there was anyone there.

Unfortunately, she forgot that this was a labor camp, not a courtyard house, and Yi Zhonghai was not here to protect her. The people she was with were prisoners sent from all over the country, not the old neighbors. These people were too busy bullying her, and they spoiled her for nothing.

"Oh, she's still a tough cookie! Sisters, why don't you go and loosen up our new comrade's muscles and teach her some rules here!"

As the boss of this dormitory, Wang Jinhua always finds excuses to punish the newcomers in order to establish her own prestige, calling it "setting rules". Unexpectedly, before she could take the opportunity to attack, Jia Zhang actually got the upper hand. Wang Jinhua, who felt that her face was damaged, did not waste any words and directly called on her subordinates to take action.

"Help! The prisoner has killed someone. Where is the guard? Where did he die? Ladies, please stop beating me. I was wrong. I apologize..." Jia Zhang was the best at cursing, but when it came to fighting, she was no match for the prisoners. Jia Zhang wanted to act like a hero, but she was pinned to the ground and beaten violently. She begged for mercy.

"Remember, no matter how tough you are outside, I am the boss here, you have to listen to me! Do you understand?" Wang Jinhua, who was tired of fighting, looked at Jia Zhang curled up on the ground and warned fiercely. In the dim and cramped room, coupled with the blue birthmark on half of her face, Wang Jinhua looked even more ferocious.

"Yes, yes, I remember!" Jia Zhang, who was beaten black and blue, nodded hurriedly. But the hatred in her eyes could not be hidden. Wang Jinhua, who saw everything, did not care about it. She did not expect that a beating would make someone behave.

In the evening, the staff of the labor camp came to deliver food. Jia Zhang seized the opportunity and shouted desperately: "Director, I report it. They beat me for no reason. Look how they beat me..." As she spoke, Jia Zhang stretched forward her face, which was swollen like a pig's head.

After making the complaint, Jia Zhang glared at Wang Jinhua with a smug look. But Wang Jinhua looked funny no matter how she looked at him because of his pig-like head.

"Wang Jinhua, what's going on?"

"Supervisor, this new comrade came in and took other people's beds and cursed. I couldn't stand it, so I took action!" The experienced Wang Jinhua naturally knew how to deal with the supervisor.

"Yes..." "Yes, Sister Hua is right!" Others also spoke up, pushing all the responsibility onto Jia Zhang.

"Nonsense, mother..." Without waiting for Jia Zhang to explain, the supervisor shouted, "Shut up, who are you, mother? This is a labor camp, not your home. If you don't repent, I will put you in solitary confinement. And all of you, be honest!"

Jia Zhang thought that the people who beat her would be punished, but she didn't expect that the supervisor would just criticize her. Looking at the supervisor's back as he walked away, Jia Zhang turned her head stiffly, looking at the half-smiles on Wang Jinhua and the others' faces, and made an expression that was uglier than crying. Before she could say anything to argue, she was beaten again.

In the following month, Jia Zhang was beaten every few days, and she was also doing the dirtiest and most tiring work. It's not that she didn't think about resisting, but she was good at cursing in the street, and she didn't get any benefit from the beatings.

As for finding a supervisor, haha, sorry, due to the shortage of manpower, they implemented the practice of prisoners managing prisoners. The person in charge of Jia Zhang is Wang Jinhua, who educates her every day. In the eyes of the supervisor, as long as no one dies, everything is a small matter.

After a long time, Jia Zhang also realized that things were different now. Jia Zhang was indeed a widow who had made it in the Republic of China. After she changed her ways, she was willing to kneel down and lick Wang Jinhua's ass. Before long, she became the number one lackey. In addition, with the money and bills that Jia Dongxu mailed every now and then, Jia Zhang's life was pretty good.

Time passed by in Jia Zhang's constant tree planting, and gradually she got used to her current life. Of course, there were also things that made Jia Zhang unhappy: since 56 years ago, her family had no more money or letters sent by mail, which made her dissatisfied and worried.

Jia Zhang thought that such a peaceful life would last until her labor reform was over. Unexpectedly, an accident gave her hope of early release. In 1959, in order to cope with the famine, various government departments across the country reduced their supplies to varying degrees. Labor reform facilities were no exception. Because of their special nature, they even reduced their supplies more than other departments.

As a result, the treatment in the labor camp, which was not very good to begin with, became even worse. In the past, they could at least eat enough, but now they only have one steamed bun a day, which is mixed with bran. However, the daily workload has not been reduced much. In addition, the desert environment is harsh, and many people can't hold on and have evil thoughts. Among them is Wang Jinhua, the boss of the cell where Jia Zhang is.

Late that night, Jia Zhang, who usually slept till dawn, was awakened by the urge to urinate. She had no choice but to get up and walk outside. However, when Jia Zhang, who was in a daze, walked to a secluded place, she suddenly heard a familiar voice:

"I've decided to escape the next time supplies come. What do you think? Do you want to join me?"

"Run. If you don't run now, you will either starve to death or die of exhaustion!" another voice followed closely behind.

"Yes, run!" "Then run, who knows when this disaster will end!" Several other voices echoed.
