Siheyuan: Starting from the Pig Killer

Chapter 78 Jia Dongxu was arrested

"boom!"

Yuan Wei country.

After Xiang Yunduan explained what had happened, Yuan Weiguo slapped the table, almost shaking all the dishes on the table.

"How could there be such a person? Did her family just let her act like this? It's really unreasonable!" Yuan Weiguo said angrily.

"It's hard to describe this family. Jia Dongxu's father passed away when he was a child. Jia Dongxu was raised by Jia Zhang. But think about what the environment was like before liberation? Jia Zhang didn't even have a serious job. , for life... So, this kind of thing may seem outrageous to others, but in the eyes of this family, it may not be a big deal.

In addition, after I moved into that courtyard, I didn’t deal with the Jia family. It can be said that I offended the Jia family severely. If they seize this opportunity this time, they probably won’t let it go easily! Xiang Yunduan explained.

Xiang Yunduan also inquired about the Jia family. As for the channel, it was the officer Liu who took him to the courtyard.

In fact, Xiang Yunduan knew not only the Jia family, but also the residents in the entire courtyard.

Let’s talk about the origin of this courtyard first. The original owner was a businessman named Tie. Before liberation, he and Boss Lou jointly operated the iron factory, which is now the steel rolling mill.

At the end of 1948, Forty-Nine City was besieged. Because the Iron Boss had done business with the Japanese in the past, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Iron Boss spent a lot of money to manage the top officials of the Kuomintang, and then he took off the label of a traitor.

He knew very well that once Forty-Nine City was liberated, he would definitely not be able to rely on top-down management if he tried to manage it, so he sold his property and ran away in advance.

But at that time, how expensive was the plane ticket leaving Sijiu City? Not only is it expensive, but you also have to have connections to get it.

How many people have gone bankrupt just for a plane ticket.

Boss Tie has a rich background, but he also has a large family. In the end, he only got four air tickets and headed south in a hurry with his first wife, son and daughter.

This courtyard was left by Boss Tie to his concubine.

This concubine doesn't have any ability to make a living. She is very good at playing, playing and singing, but she can't use it to make a living.

In addition, this concubine also had a problem with smoking cream. The little money Boss Tie left behind when he left was quickly wiped out by this concubine.

But smoking this kind of thing is addictive, and she can't quit. In order to make money, this concubine began to dismantle the entire courtyard and sell and rent it.

It was at that time that the originally single-family courtyard houses gradually turned into large courtyard houses, and most of the people who now live in the courtyard houses had moved in at that time.

Some people rent, some buy, and so on.

For example, the main house where Shazhu lived and the side house where Yuyu lived were bought by He Daqing at that time. Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai, and Xu Damao's father Xu Fugui all bought houses.

What makes Xiang Yunduan strange is that the house where the Jia family lives is bought instead of rented.

You know, Jia Dongxu's father had passed away at that time, so it was strange that the Jia family could afford a house.

However, according to Officer Liu, after the liberation of Forty-Nine City, a large-scale investigation was conducted on the people in the city. According to the data, the relationship between the Jia family and Yi Zhonghai was very unusual.

The good relationship between the Jia family and Yi Zhonghai did not start after Jia Dongxu was accepted as an apprentice by Yi Zhonghai, but it was already like this before. It is said that Yi Zhonghai paid for Jia Dongxu's school fees.

As for the "auspicious" deaf old lady in this yard, her identity is not that bizarre.

When the deaf old lady was young, she was the nanny of the Tie family. Later, when she got older, she worked as a servant in the Tie family until after liberation. Because the superiors banned smoking, the concubine ran out of cigarettes and couldn't get through. It didn't take long for her to die. Died of illness.

Before she died, the concubine left the largest room in the back room where she lived to the deaf old lady.

After the concubine died, there was certainly nothing to say about the houses that were sold in the yard, but the property rights of those that were rented out naturally belonged to the public.

However, the tenants continue to rent, but the rent used to be given to the concubine, and now it is given to the government. It is not without benefits. At least the rent now is really not expensive, at least three yuan less than before. Four times.

As for Yan Bugui in the front yard, he moved in after liberation. The Yan family's house was neither bought nor rented, but was assigned by the school. It is of the same nature as the house where Xiang Yunduan lives.

Yan Bugui's background was also found out clearly in Yunduo. This guy used to be a book seller. He was not as high-end as a bookstore. Instead, he went around the streets collecting used books and selling them. It turned out that there was a small open-air stall in Liulichang.

Because of this, when the composition was divided later, Yan Bugui was classified as a small owner.

Although Yan Bugui is a scheming person, he is sometimes very clear-minded. Long before the public-private partnership, Yan Bugui stopped selling books. Instead, he relied on his good knowledge of ancient Chinese to find a position as a primary school Chinese teacher.

After all, the school is owned by the public, and when you become a teacher, you become a member of the public.

Yan Bugui feels that this is much safer than being a bookseller.

Of course, after becoming a teacher, his income was much lower than before, but because he had saved a lot before, Yan Bugui was able to support such a large family with a salary of more than thirty yuan a month.

In fact, besides Yan Bugui, there is another person who is more of a thief in this yard, and that is He Daqing.

He Daqing used to be an apprentice in a restaurant and secretly learned some skills. Later, he went out to work on his own. Since he had no capital and could not afford to open a shop by himself, he set up a stall selling steamed buns and planned to make it bigger.

It stands to reason that in a situation like this, He Daqing is definitely a small business owner like Yan Bugui.

But God is there. Before liberation, He Daqing closed the small shop that had developed into a bun shop for some unknown reason. Then he not only went to work in a restaurant, but also asked Sha Zhu to go to the restaurant to learn from his teacher.

As a result, when the elements were divided later, their family became hired workers.

With his status as a hired worker, Shazhu often shows off his talents in the yard.

……

"If you say that, then the Jia family's plan is too vicious. If that's the case, then you two brothers may actually turn against each other!" Xue Jingyi said with a frown.

Yuan Weiguo and Xue Jingyi also have children, who are now in high school, and are only one year younger than Xiang Yunlong. Xue Jingyi usually has headaches with her children, and she can understand this feeling very well.

"Looking for the street, doesn't the street care about this kind of thing? This is so bad!" Yuan Weiguo said. "Uncle Yuan, it's definitely useless to look for the street. What can the street do? Even if the street comes forward, Qin Huairu only needs to say, she just sees that our brothers are busy at work and can't take care of the family, so she just helps. Could it be Can the streets still allow her to do good deeds?

Moreover, Qin Huairu is still taking care of the deaf old lady in the yard.

If the street comes forward, not only will the problem not be solved, but Qin Huairu may have to be awarded a certificate of good-neighborliness and friendship! Xiang Yunduan shook his head and said.

"Oh? What do you mean? Uncle Yuan can't help!" Yuan Weiguo scratched his head and said.

"That's what I think. Uncle Yuan, aren't you at the security office of the steel rolling mill? This Jia Dongxu is also a worker in the steel rolling mill. When the time comes, you..."

Before Xiang Yunduan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yuan Weiguo: "No, although the Jia family is at fault in this matter, I can't help you avenge your personal revenge. What's the point! This is absolutely not allowed!"

Xiang Yunduan didn't expect Yuan Weiguo to say that, and his face suddenly froze. Xue Jingyi, who was next to him, quickly softened and said: "Son, although your Uncle Yuan is the deputy director of the Security Department in charge of daily work, you can't just randomly arrest workers in the factory. Well, there are so many workers watching, arresting people for no reason is not in compliance with the procedures, and the leaders above will not allow him to act recklessly."

These two seem to be quite decent people!

Xiang Yunduan lamented in his heart that these days, cadres like Cui Mingliang are probably in the minority, and those like Yuan Weiguo are the majority.

"Uncle Yuan and Aunt Xue, if there is no reason, you can't arrest people, but I heard that Jia Dongxu has a habit of petty theft. He probably stole a lot of things from the factory. If this is the case, can he be arrested? Take it?" Xiang Yunduan thought for a while and said.

"If he dares to steal things from the factory, then there will definitely be no problem in catching him, but stealing things from the steel rolling mill is unlikely.

Think about it, even if the goods in the steel rolling mill are stolen, unless he uses them himself, otherwise, where will they be sold? Nowadays, scrap collection stations are all state-owned. If you don’t know where the things came from, they will definitely be reported by the people at the scrap collection station! Yuan Weiguo hesitated and said.

This is true. After all, the steel rolling mill is not a slaughterhouse. The slaughterhouse steals some meat and takes it home to eat and enjoy it. However, the steel rolling mill is made of steel and other things, which are very valuable, but ordinary people have no use for them. On the market, you can only sell scrap products, but won’t you be reported?

When he said this, Xiang Yunduan felt a bit unreliable. He said that Jia Dongxu liked petty theft, which was just a casual statement. What evidence could he have?

But Yuan Weiguo was unwilling to use public service for personal gain, so this matter was indeed difficult to handle.

"Uncle Yuan, let's do this. Keep an eye on Jia Dongxu for a while and then take a look. What if it happens?

I do have another way, but it may not work, so I still want you to keep an eye on it. Let's take a two-pronged approach. As long as we can work together, that's good. Xiang Yunduan said finally.

"Of course there is no problem with this. Don't worry, as long as there is a problem with Jia Dongxu, Uncle Yuan will definitely take him down when the time comes!" Yuan Weiguo nodded.

Speaking of which, Yuan Weiguo had just joined the steel rolling mill not long ago. As a new official, he also needed to establish his authority. As a security guard, he still had to be more or less awe-inspiring.

Having said that, he stopped. Xiang Yunduan chatted with Yuan Weiguo and Xue Jingyi about home affairs before standing up to leave.

……

"The terminal is back. Do you have any dirty clothes that you have changed out of? Sister Qin will also wash them for you!"

When Xiang Yunduan returned home, Qin Huairu was there, as if she was waiting for him on purpose. When he saw him coming back, Qin Huairu went up to him and raised his eyebrows when he spoke. His expression was as provocative as possible.

"Hmph, there are times when you beg me!" Xiang Yunduan sneered.

"Oh, then Sister Qin can wait. When the time comes, Sister Qin will beg you properly. Just ask them whatever you want!" Qin Huairu said in an exaggerated tone.

When he said this, he didn't forget to look at Xiang Yunlong in the room.

This witch is getting more and more presumptuous now!

"Come back, you like washing clothes, right? OK, then wash it for me too!"

Xiang Yunduan saw that Qin Huairu was about to leave after showing off her dignity, so he was not polite and threw the dirty clothes he had changed to Qin Huairu. He could not let this enchantress be too proud.

"Look, do you know who Sister Qin is now? You are just too prejudiced against Sister Qin. In the future, if Sister Qin has an in-depth communication with you, you will no longer hate Sister Qin!" Qin Huairu smiled charmingly, without any sign of disgust, and took away all the dirty clothes Xiang Yunduan threw to her.

After Qin Huairu left, Xiang Yunduan glanced at his younger brother. This guy was chatting and laughing with Qin Huairu before, but now he pretended to be quail and buried his head without saying a word.

……

In the next few days, Xiang Yunduan would go to the steel rolling mill every day, but there was no news from Yuan Weiguo. It seemed that Jia Dongxu's hands and feet were quite clean, better than Jia Zhang's.

On the third day after Xiang Yunduan returned to work, the factory held a commendation meeting specifically for him as the workers said.

The commendation meeting was held in the conference room of the factory, and was mostly attended by leaders, big and small. However, the whole process was broadcast live on the radio, and all the workers in the room could hear it.

Although it was a commendation meeting, the prizes were very "shabby". He was only given an enamel water cup with the words "Be brave for justice", a leather-bound notebook and a pound of beef and mutton tickets.

In this era, rewards are more spiritual, and material rewards are certainly not too many.

But there are also hidden benefits. For example, when the advanced individuals and model workers are selected at the end of the year, his chances will be much greater. Also, it will be easier to join the party.

Just like this, a few days later, when Xiang Yunduan had been provoked to the limit by Qin Huairu and was about to implement another plan, good news came from Yuan Weiguo.

Jia Dongxu was finally caught.

After Xiang Yunduan learned the news, he quickly went to the steel rolling mill. He thought that Jia Dongxu had committed something big. Only after arriving did he find out that Jia Dongxu had brought thick bags from the factory reading room when he got off work today. A stack of old newspapers was seized upon leaving the factory gate.

"I'm afraid this little thing won't be of much use!"

In Yuan Weiguo's office, Xiang Yunduan said with some disappointment.

"I can't help it. It's just this little thing. I've been keeping an eye on it for several days, but I haven't seen him steal any used parts from the factory or anything like that!"

Yuan Weiguo was also helpless and said: "Uncle Yuan, I can't do anything about it. The next step is up to you. Anyway, at most, this matter can only be criticized in their workshop and then be reviewed in public.

If the punishment is harsher, he will be punished by having to go to the factory to clean toilets for a week. Any more severe punishment would be inappropriate. "

"Okay, I'll find a way, but can you keep the news a secret first? Only let outsiders know that Jia Dongxu was arrested by the security department, but don't reveal the specific reason why he was arrested!" Xiang Yunduan thought for a while and then said.

"Yes, but you can't hide it for long, so you have to hurry!" Yuan Weiguo said.
