Since the Daoguang years at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the great powers used artillery to open the country's doors, the word "traitor" began to become widely popular, during Lin Zexu's ban on opium, many Chinese who participated in opium smuggling, converted to foreign Catholicism, and even served foreigners were called "Han traitors", and the "Aggressive Yin" recorded:
"Qi Shan (Qing Dynasty minister, opium war lord and faction) as a direct subordinate to the governor, mistakenly believed the words of the traitors, and Sang Shanlin xu Yan handled opium cigarettes in eastern Guangdong, which was not enough to convince Yingyi's heart. Shang (Daoguang Emperor) was replaced by Qi Shan. That is to say, when the great powers first invaded China, the power of the traitors was already very large, and they could even interfere in the transfer of the position of minister of the imperial court through covert means.
In the republic of China period, those who betrayed the motherland and betrayed the interests of the state were collectively called "traitors", and the number of traitors in China during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression exceeded 3 million, more than the Japanese army invested on the battlefield of invading China! We should have heard a lot of stories of big traitors, but at that time, there were actually many "little traitors" in the folk, and Zhang Guihua, a peasant woman from Sichuan, was one of them.
Zhang Guihua did not think at first that she would become a traitor. In 1936, everyone gradually realized that putting aside infighting and preparing for the War of Resistance Against Japan was the right way, and Zhang Guihua, who had not read much, did not know the general situation outside, she married a Hebei man, and returned to her hometown in North China with him.
Her husband was a patriotic and enthusiastic soldier, after the outbreak of the War of Resistance, he did not hesitate to sign up for the army, Zhang Guihua was a little worried, but she could not stop her husband, and could only wait for him to return at home. Unexpectedly, a few months later, she received the news that her husband had died in battle, Zhang Guihua did not have children, her hometown was far away, and it was not realistic for her to return to her hometown for refuge in the war, so she had to choose to remarry.
The second husband looked honest and had little wealth, and Zhang Guihua thought that she could live a peaceful life from now on, but after a few months of marriage, she found that her husband had secret contacts with the Japanese, and his money was exchanged for providing intelligence to the Japanese army. The husband did not want to hide Zhang Guihua's meaning, but lobbied her to participate together, and Zhang Guihua looked at the golden beads and gradually moved her mind.
At first, Zhang Guihua only helped her husband pass on the news, but after she tasted the benefits of money, she was out of control, not only relying on the japanese power to open a casino, but also starting a cigarette paste business. The nearby people naturally hated and feared Zhang Guihua and his wife, but because these traitors had already formed a firm chain of interests with the Japanese and were protected by the Japanese, no one dared to do anything to them.
In North China, Zhang Guihua even made a little "fame" as a traitor. It was not until 1945, when the Japanese fascists were completely defeated and surrendered, that a large number of traitors became the focus of arrest and trial, and Zhang Guihua and his wife were also arrested and imprisoned in Beiping Prison. The tense atmosphere on the eve of the Liberation War gave Zhang Guihua a chance to escape the disaster, and she gave most of her ill-gotten wealth to the guards, sneaked out of the prison secretly, and fled back to her hometown in Sichuan.
Zhang Guihua hid for 15 years, and after a period of worrying about it, she found that no one had found her, and no one in her hometown had heard of her past, so she relaxed a bit and decided to live in her hometown for a lifetime. In order to integrate into the villagers, Zhang Guihua even took out part of the money to open a school, someone asked where the money came from, she lied and said that it was a little money left by her husband after his death, she looked at the poor mountain baby, wanted them to read, and was willing to give all the money.
In the past, when she was a traitor, Zhang Guihua increased her knowledge a lot, her primary school opened in a similar way, and when she became a teacher, people could not see the flaws at all, and the villagers who were grateful to her called her "living bodhisattva". Being able to escape the sanctions after the war was something that Zhang Guihua did not dare to think about before, and she felt very lucky, but she also had some pity: for 15 years, she had to live frugally every day like everyone else, and she did not dare to spend the money she had saved, and her life was too bitter.
Therefore, Zhang Guihua finally couldn't help but quietly buy a piece of meat, and took advantage of the fact that people were quiet at home in the middle of the night to make braised meat to eat and improve their lives. She thought that no one had recognized her as safe for many years, but she did not expect that on this day, a late returning student passed by the window, smelled the strong smell of meat, and told her parents about it when she returned. Parents were suspicious: Teacher Zhang has always been very simple, and the tuition fees are very small, where is the money to buy meat to eat?
The more they thought about it, the more they felt that something was wrong, they chose to call the police, originally thinking that Zhang Guihua was just greedy for some money, but they did not expect that the police actually found out Zhang Guihua's past experience as a traitor! Skynet was restored without leaking, and Zhang Guihua was eventually executed and accepted a belated punishment. Exposed because of a momentary appetite, I am afraid that Zhang Guihua could not have imagined it in any way.
