[Imperial jacket] The rumor in this town is that I am a "prisoner of the emperor". They also say that I have an imperial jacket with the words "big rightist" embroidered on the back. Someone quietly came up to me and asked if I could show it to him.

[Lu Xun's photo] During the house search, the photo under the glass plate was taken away, saying that it was a photo of my father holding me as a baby. I have never forgotten my father's revenge, and the photo is irrefutable evidence. I don't know if it was Lu Xun and Zhou Haiying. In one corner of the photo, there is Lu Xun's handwriting "Fifty and One". My father is thin and looks like Mr. Zhou, and there is a reason for that.

[Using a dog's head to hit the leader] The 20th anniversary of the National Day is approaching. One day, I and six historical counter-revolutionaries were ordered to move a portrait of Chairman Mao. The portrait is 15 feet tall and leans against a high wall. It had just been painted and had to be moved to the courtyard. The six people faced the leader and lifted the bottom edge of the portrait frame. I volunteered to stand behind the portrait and support the crossbeam of the portrait frame. When it was moved to the courtyard, the wind blew the portrait to the side. I thought it was my responsibility to protect it, so I used my cheap head to hold it tightly. In the end, I was weak and couldn't hold it up, so the portrait pressed down from my head and fell to the ground with a bang. Before I could recover from the shock, the head had already pierced the chest of the leader! I crawled out from the face of the portrait. Thinking that I had committed an active counter-revolutionary crime, cold sweat broke out on my forehead. During the criticism and denunciation that night, Luo, a small leader of the Red Workers 06th Column, accused me, saying, "He used his dog's head to hit the great leader's chest!" This incident shocked the whole town. Fortunately, the town party general branch secretary Shen Quanbin testified for me, so the higher authorities did not investigate further. Secretary Shen was there at the time to help carry it and witnessed the scene. After three nights of criticism, it finally passed. On the eve of National Day, this portrait of Chairman Mao was hung at the T-junction of East Street after the efforts of many people. When I passed by it and looked up at the back, I could still see the three-foot stitching marks, which made me palpitate.

[Wrong wall nail] A certain landowner in this town pasted a treasure statue on the wall. When you see that the paper is uneven, use your palm to press it. There were old nails on the wall, and they came out through the leader's right eye. My eyes were wide open and I didn’t notice. The Red Guards found out and said that she was trying to blind the leader and get him to criticize her.

[Which hei character?] Wang Qingsong, a landowner in the third residential area, has a son named Xiao, who is a Communist Party member and the principal of a middle school. After Wang Qingsong was delisted, she became even more enthusiastic about learning. The head of the third neighborhood committee led the reading of "Quotations from Chairman Mao" and began to read the sentence "The black core force leading our cause is the Chinese Communist Party." Wang Qingsong was suspicious and asked hurriedly, "Which hei character?" Then she was convicted and re-listed. In Sichuan dialect, the two characters "hei" and "hei" are pronounced as one. They have the same pronunciation, so there is this mistake. After Wang Qingsong was criticized, her son was also criticized by the Red Guards for being a "capitalist roader." I don't know if they were implicated.
