"Village Chief Cao, my family has been farming for generations, but three years ago, with the excuse of renting land, you took away my family's right to produce on five acres of land. I went to your house to ask for rent, but you got someone to beat me up, causing one of my legs to be permanently disabled. I want to ask, what did I do wrong? I was farming honestly, and merely wanted an explanation from you, but you beat me up like that. Now you want me to forgive you? Who's going to pity me? Do I have to live in your shadow?"
