My courtyard shelter

After handling two cases in succession, both ended satisfactorily. Xu Dong was more confident about the next action.

But reality dealt him a heavy blow.

When he checked Building 17, he made a big discovery. In a house of less than 80 square meters, there were as many as 16 Southern Dynasty women "locked up".

According to the gatekeeper, these people were just transferred from Qindao a few days ago and will be transported to the capital Quancheng tomorrow.

It is sad that these Southern Dynasty women were sold voluntarily, so there was only one old man guarding the gate. He was not alert at all and was probably helping to deliver food.

For "rescuing" this group of illegal immigrants, Xu Dong received high praise from Director Ji, but he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.

In the next two days, he almost dealt with it. Anyway, his performance was enough, and an excellent comment was definitely indispensable.

However, even so, he still caught several cases of keeping mistresses, and the parties involved were all young Southern Dynasty women without exception.

The most outrageous thing is that there is actually a high school student who actually found a Southern Dynasty "girlfriend" who is ten years older than him without telling his parents.

In this regard, Xu Dong can only sigh:

The Yangtze River's waves behind push the waves ahead, and each generation is stronger than the previous one.

…

The day before the big investigation, Xu Dong received two wedding invitations at the same time, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

Nowadays, it is different from the past. Because of limited conditions, everything about marriage is simple and does not take much time to prepare.

Many people get their marriage certificates in the morning, hold their weddings in the afternoon, and go back to work the next day.

"Auntie, what gift do you think I should give?" Before leaving, Xu Dong suffered from choice difficulties.

"Cigarettes and alcohol are too expensive. You should do the same as us and give a pound of sweet potatoes. They should be short of food." Aunt Zhang suggested.

According to the regulations that were just issued at the beginning of the year, for foreign spouses who have not been naturalized, they usually only have a 65% share of the normal standard ration after marriage.

However, the share will increase by 0.3% every month, and it will continue for 105 months, which is almost nine years.

Generally, a foreign spouse can apply for naturalization after seven years of marriage, so nine years is more than enough.

"That's fine, but I don't have sweet potatoes, so I'll give you a pound of corn flour!" Xu Dong agreed.

Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "Giving corn flour is fine, but it's a bit conspicuous."

Food that is easy to store, such as rice, flour and corn flour, is usually the family's old stock and will not be taken out easily.

"It's okay. Anyway, I can't stay for long. Whoever wants to say it can say it!"

At ten o'clock in the morning, Xu Dong followed Aunt Zhang to Lin Fang's house. The bride wore a bright red cheongsam and the groom wore a suit. The couple was standing at the door to welcome the guests.

Xu Dong quickly gave a small bag of corn flour and said, "Happy wedding, I wish you eternal love, a happy marriage, and a long life together!"

"Thank you!" The groom was still as handsome as ever.

"Thank you, Officer Xu." Lin Fang put on heavy makeup today, and she looked a lot younger.

Lin's mother grabbed Xu Dong:

"Officer Xu, you are the great benefactor of our Lin Fang, please come in quickly."

Aunt Zhang supported Lin Fang and scolded: "You are pregnant, why are you still out, go back to the house and rest."

"Aunt, today is my big day, I am happy, just let me stand for a while!" Lin Fang smiled and refused.

"Then be careful, if you feel uncomfortable, don't be stubborn."

Lin Fang nodded: "I know, I won't joke about the baby in my belly, Aunt, you guys go in quickly!"

Entering the house, it was already full of people.

Seeing Xu Dong coming in, everyone ran over to say hello. The two-day inspection operation has solved many safety hazards for the community, and everyone is very grateful.

At about 10:30, the wedding officially began.

"First bow to heaven and earth!"

"Second bow to parents!"

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

After the couple bowed to each other, the wedding was over.

There was no banquet next, but before leaving, the host family gave each household a rice ball as big as a table tennis ball as a return gift.

In order to get some joy, Xu Dong tasted a rice ball, which was stuffed with pickles and shredded radish. It was delicious, and he finished it in three bites.

"Xiao Xu, Auntie, can I give you this one too?"

Xu Dong took out another rice ball from his pocket: "Auntie, I have another one!"

In order to thank him, people gave him an extra rice ball.

"Your corn flour is worth it." Auntie Zhang laughed.

"Haha, I think I made a profit."

For lunch, Auntie Zhang not only cooked a pot of rice, but also made several dishes. Of course, each dish had shrimps. It was a rare luxury.

Uncle Zhang came back from get off work and looked at the table full of food and said in surprise: "Is there anything good today? Why is it so rich?"

"The old Lin family held a wedding in the morning, and the old Zheng family held a wedding in the afternoon. I am happy for both of them." Auntie Zhang looked relieved.

Uncle Zhang looked a little unnatural. He wanted to say something, but it turned into a sigh in the end.

"Uncle, let's have a couple of drinks at noon?" Xu Dong interrupted quickly.

"Okay, I'll go get the wine."

The meal made Xu Dong feel like he was in a world of ice and fire. On one side, Aunt Zhang was beaming with joy, while on the other side, Uncle Zhang was drinking to drown his sorrows. His sorrows were so intense that they could drip out of water.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zheng Dong's wedding began. Xu Dong did not show favoritism and gave a pound of corn flour to both parties.

Zheng Dong's family was slightly worse off than Lin Fang's, and the wedding was even simpler.

The groom wore a half-worn suit, and the bride wore traditional Nesan clothes. Zheng's mother was obviously very welcoming to Xu Dong's arrival.

After three bows, the wedding was over.

The Zheng family gave a return gift of sweet potato cakes, one pack per household, a total of four pieces.

In addition, the bride also prepared a special gift for Xu Dong.

"Xu Sang, this is a talisman made by my... mother... for me... by hand, I hope... you can accept it."

Xu Dong took it solemnly. The talisman was only the size of an eraser and was placed in a small red bag with the words "元胜" in the middle of the bag.

Zheng Dong explained on the side: "This talisman was specially blessed by my mother-in-law at the Mimine Shrine in Saitama Prefecture. It is said to be very effective in improving luck."

"Thank you, I like it very much." After Xu Dong said this, he hung the talisman around his neck on the spot to show his importance.

After leaving Old Zheng's house, Xu Dong did not go back with Aunt Zhang, but went to the bureau. The big investigation will officially start tomorrow, and there will be a meeting at 5:30 in the bureau.

When they arrived at the bureau, everyone else came earlier this time. Among them, two male colleagues had injuries on their faces. It was obvious that they must have encountered a lot of troubles in the past two days.

After all, they are young people who have just entered the society. They love to show off and have momentum. They are also more responsible than Xu Dong, a veteran in the workplace.

Xu Dong learned from Xiao Zhang that several nearby communities have been in a big fuss in the past two days. In the end, it was Director Ji who stepped in to suppress the matter.
