Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 257 The theft case at Shazhu’s house
There was a lot of noise among the people talking, and some of the nosy aunts and uncles in the courtyard immediately put down their work and followed the sound into the middle courtyard.

He stretched his neck and saw that the faces of the people standing by the faucet were not very good-looking, and their faces immediately revealed a hint of unnoticeable expectation.

One of them is a aunt in her fifties, and she usually has a good relationship with the aunt.

Seeing the situation in front of him, he couldn't help but come closer and said, "What's wrong with Sister-in-law Yi? Are you having an argument with Yuyu?"

After saying that, he looked at the people of the He family standing in the courtyard with a careful look, so that he could be prepared if something happened.

I don't blame the aunt for thinking blindly. It's because He Yuyu's voice was too high just now, and now she and her sister-in-law Yu Li both have unkind looks on their faces. It's hard not to think too much.

The eldest mother didn't want the people in the courtyard to laugh at her, so she hurriedly explained: "Dongzi mother, don't talk nonsense. I am a big person and I can still see as much as a child."

After saying that, seeing the obvious disbelief on the faces of Dongzi's mother and the neighbors who came to eat melons, they hurriedly told the story of the things thrown away from Si Zhu's house in a few words.

"What! There is a thief in our courtyard?"

Dongzi's mother had a look of shock on her face, and the other aunts and aunts were not much better.

The third aunt who had just made a fuss because she wanted to take advantage could not help but jump out and complain when she saw someone fired first, "Sister-in-law Li is right.

After knowing that there was no loss, he said in a relaxed tone to the chattering people in the courtyard: "Sisters and sisters-in-law, please be quiet first and listen to what I have to say, okay?"

Mrs. Jia Zhang said hello to the third aunt in her heart, then put away her thoughts of making trouble, quietly stood aside and watched the excitement, preparing to take action at the critical moment.

Those who had not been home all afternoon had no intention of watching the excitement, so they hurried home with the crying child in their hands.

"Then I would like to thank Sister Zhang first."

As soon as these words came out, it was like poking a hornet's nest. The old women standing in the courtyard immediately shouted and divided into two groups.

There was such a big commotion, and almost all the people at home in the courtyard were standing here. After understanding the whole story, they all agreed with the third aunt's words.

There are a lot of girls and boys of marriageable age in the courtyard. It would be terrible if the reputation of being a thief spreads out. "

There are people in the family who work in the steel rolling mill, so they will give Section Chief He some face. Although he was a little reluctant, he didn't say anything against it.

Seeing that the host family had something to say, the aunts and aunts quickly shut up, wanting to see how Sha Zhu's uncle would handle the matter.

"Although Sister-in-law Daliang is not well-educated, she also knows that evidence is needed when speaking and doing things. Although you are a cadre, you can't just dismiss people with empty words. If this spreads out, we will never have the face to see anyone in the future."

After He Yuanchao nodded to Sister Zhang who was speaking, he continued: "Everyone knows what happened at the Zhuzhu family, so I won't talk nonsense.

According to my judgment, the person who stole the things belongs to our courtyard. Next, I hope that all the eldest sisters and sisters-in-law can cooperate with me to find this thief. "

Taking advantage of the chaos in the courtyard, He Yuanchao also whispered about the situation in Yu Li's house.

Some people who wanted to build a relationship even took the opportunity to express their opinions: "Da Liang! We have been neighbors for many years. If there is anything you can do to help, just tell Sister Zhang. You are welcome."

The remaining people are not so easy to talk to. They all live in the same courtyard. If you open your mouth and suspect us as thieves, who are you insulting?

After all, he slept in the same bed as a cultural man, and the conversation was about nothing.

There are a few people with good intentions who want to support He Yuanchao to find out the thief and restore the innocence of other people in the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, Mrs. Jia Zhang led several old women to retort them back.

Looking at the chaotic scene in front of him, He Yuanchao felt extremely fed up. After holding out his hand to stop Yu Li and He Yuyu, who were about to come forward to argue with everyone, He Yuanchao said with a cold face: "Although there is nothing valuable lost at home, what food means to the family these days is all in my heart. There are several.

Since you are unwilling to self-examine, then we will let the officials do it. "

As soon as He Yuanchao finished speaking, before everyone present could react, two voices, a man's and a woman's, came out at the same time.

"No."

"Can't be an official."

Hearing this, He Yuanchao followed the voice and glanced at Jia Zhang, who was standing nervously in the crowd, and then at Yan Bugui, who was standing at the door of the central courtyard.

Jia and Zhang were not allowed to report the crime, so He Yuanchao knew what was going on with Yan Bugui. Could it be that he also had a hand in it?

Just as He Yuanchao was stunned, Yu Li beside him couldn't help but take over the words.

"No, why not? You can't let my family suffer this loss in vain. You don't even have an explanation!"

After saying that, Yu Li, whose face was red with anger, stared at Jia Zhang in the crowd.

Mrs. Jia Zhang, who had a stern look and was in trouble, felt a little frightened when Yu Li saw her. After opening her mouth and saying "I" twice, she couldn't think of any reason to object. She could only turn her head and look at Yan Bugui.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yan Bugui could only bite the bullet and walked up to He Yuanchao and said: "Da Liang! It's not a big deal. I think we should solve it ourselves in the courtyard." !”

After Yan Bugui said this, without waiting for He Yuanchao's response, he turned around and said to other people in the courtyard: "Young and old gentlemen, listen to me.

I think we should listen to Daliang. First, Daliang is the security section chief of the steel rolling mill. He must be able to handle small cases like this.

Second, catching the thief is also good for everyone. Not only does it save everyone from having to bear the reputation of being a thief, but it also allows every household to be prepared in the future.

Third, and most importantly, after becoming an official, we will really be unable to cover up the possibility of a thief in our courtyard.

When everyone really wants to know about it, if someone twists their mouth, it is very likely that someone in our courtyard is a thief. By then, our courtyard's reputation will really be ruined. "

In terms of grasping the hearts of the people in the courtyard, apart from Yi Zhonghai, only Yan Bugui can.

At one, two, and three o'clock, everyone in the courtyard looked at each other and nodded in approval of Yan Bugui's proposal.

It doesn't matter if you are a cadre. When it comes to winning people over by being reasonable, you still have to look at me as a cultural person.

Seeing that everyone agreed with his statement, Yan Bugui felt a little proud. After pushing up his glasses, he turned to He Yuanchao and said: "Daliang, since everyone has agreed, you can talk about the articles of association early. If the thief is found, everyone can feel at ease soon.”

Seeing the somewhat complacent Yan Bugui, He Yuanchao was not polite.

"Since we all agree, I won't waste everyone's time and quickly find the thief. Let's do whatever we need to do..."

Before he finished speaking, everyone nodded and started making noises.

"Yes! It's time to get off work now, and I haven't cooked the meal yet!"

"Commander He, hurry up. My family won't be able to eat when they come back, so I will be scolded."
