Chapter 1612 Abandoned Baby in Front of Car 4

Lu Jiang sent Han Ping and Liu Yan to greet their guests, but kept Director Liu. "Send someone to find out who wandered in front of the car with a basket, and then find out whose family gave birth to a child and left the child here. Generally speaking, the family is nearby, not too far away, unless the other party came from a distance."

"Yes, I'll send someone right away."

Director Liu was about to send someone to investigate, Feng Qingxue stopped him, "By the way, check if the child was deliberately placed under the front tire of the car to kill the child! This is intentional homicide!"

Director Liu's heart trembled, and suddenly asked: "Leader, look, is it a girl?"

A large part of the urban residents came from rural areas, and as the director of the police station, Director Liu often came into contact with the situation below, and was aware of many cases caused by the feudal idea of ​​favoring boys over girls. No matter how the propaganda slogans such as "Women can hold up half the sky", "gender equality", and "drowning infants is intentional homicide" were written on the wall, it still could not change the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls.

Han Ping once conducted a survey. A certain people's commune had 127 infants die in one year, of which 108 were girls. They were born not long ago. Are girls really not as strong as boys? Obviously impossible.

Therefore, the cause of death of 108 girls can be imagined.

There are always some parents who think that they have the right to decide the life and death of their own children.

Faced with this situation, Director Liu was also helpless.

Feng Qingxue asked Lu Jiang to pour hot water, unbuttoned her military coat, jacket, and cotton-padded jacket, and held the baby in her arms. She was wearing a military coat lined with lambskin, and autumn clothes, cashmere clothes, mink vests, and military cotton-padded jackets issued by the army. She was fully armed. It seemed that the baby, who was born only a few days ago, knew to stick to her arms and absorb the warmth from her body.

There was nothing in the basket that could reveal the baby's identity, but the torn swaddling clothes and the small torn quilt were washed very clean. Lu Jiang brought warm water to feed the baby a few sips, untied the swaddling clothes and took a look. It was indeed a baby girl.

"Liu Ran, go to the canteen and ask for a bowl of rice soup." There was no milk or milk powder, so he could only feed some rice soup first.

Liu Ran agreed and left quickly.

Seeing Feng Qingxue wrapping the baby in a cotton jacket and a military coat with a gentle expression, Director Liu sighed slightly, "Meeting the two leaders, this child can be considered to have saved a life."

No matter what, as long as the child is healthy and has a bite to eat, the child can survive.

At the same time, Director Liu also understood the reason for putting the child under the front tire of the car.

"What's the reason?" Feng Qingxue couldn't help asking when she heard him speak. Is there something she didn't know?

Director Liu whispered, "There is a saying, which is actually a feudal superstition, that the more miserable the death of a baby girl, the less likely she is to come back to avenge her parents, and the parents will give birth to a boy in the next child. Therefore, many baby girls died particularly miserably, some were drowned, some were buried alive, some had their heads smashed, some were strangled, and there are countless ways of death."

A chill climbed up Feng Qingxue's back, and her face was as pale as paper.

Under the influence of the maid hired by the Lu family and under the management of Wang Zhengguo, the slogan of gender equality after liberation was well publicized. Because Wang Zhengguo doted on his only daughter, Wanglou Brigade was the brigade with the highest status for girls in the surrounding area. Even so, there were people who favored boys over girls in private, let alone other places?

. . . In the 1980s and 1990s, this situation still existed in rural areas. It was said that the more tragic the death of a baby girl, the better. So there is a reason why there are so many bachelors now. Our clan has not married for more than four years. There are more than a dozen bachelor boys aged 23 to 28 or 29, and there seem to be some in their early 30s. There are only two girls left who are still attached.
