Chapter 1452 Obstacles

No matter how smart she is, Qin Huairu is just a widow with little knowledge.

Can she not panic?

Her heart was filled with panic and fear, which was even worse than the despair she felt when she faced Guo Da Pao alone that night.

But she held on, telling herself that she couldn't take a step back.

Banggeng is her life, and she can't let anything happen to Banggeng.

She doesn't believe that Sha Zhu has already made a move. She understands Sha Zhu's character, and she feels that if Sha Zhu has really made a move, there is no need to talk nonsense here.

So she was sure they didn't have any evidence that the chicken and meat were stolen by Bangge.

Without evidence, they can't convict!

So she couldn't panic, she had to pretend that she wasn't afraid at all, and she couldn't let others see her guilty conscience.

The three uncles all saw her look and understood that today's matter might not be solved so easily.

The three of them fell silent and stopped talking.

If you want to push things forward and say anything next, you will definitely offend someone.

The three of them were forced by the old lady to hold this meeting, but no one was willing to do anything that would offend others.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui both looked at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, and installed clay statues. Yi Zhonghai looked at the two of them, with helplessness in his eyes.

He knew that he would have to do the job in the end.

The more people care about image and reputation, and the more they seek something, the more they will be coerced by the current situation and pushed forward without sincerity.

Yi Zhonghai was not willing to make the decision for Sha Zhu at all. As he had discussed with Aunt Ma before, Sha Zhu had suffered this loss. It was more in line with him and Aunt Ma to help Sha Zhu out of need and make Sha Zhu grateful. their interests.

If you come forward now, it will probably be a thankless effort.

The most important thing is to offend the Jia family, and this offense is not an ordinary offence. This is to ask Bang Gang, who is the lifeblood of the Jia family.

Not to mention how difficult Jia and Zhang are, this one has a reputation of bullying orphans and widowed mothers, which is really unpleasant.

So Yi Zhonghai is really unwilling to do this.

But he had to do it even if he didn't want to, and he couldn't be passive and slow down like Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui.

Because he is a big man, he also expects Shazhu to provide for him in his old age.

He has to do this offending work whether he wants to do it or not.

Now he regrets more and more why he did not step down from his position as the first uncle because of temporary greed.

If he resigns, these bad things won't be his headache at all.

"Huairu, where is Banggan'er? Call him out." After waiting for a while, Qin Huairu still didn't respond. Yi Zhonghai could only sigh in his heart and directly called his name.

There was a buzzing sound, and everyone's eyes fell on Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu's face became paler. She looked at Yi Zhonghai in surprise and said, "Master, what do you mean by this?"

Her voice was dry and trembling, but her heart suddenly felt at ease.

Yi Zhonghai said: "Huai Ru, that's it. I won't make it clear, so don't pretend to be confused. You are also a smart kid, you should know what we are talking about. If Silly Zhu is responsible for stealing meat and chicken, , he is going to jail, can you bear to see him go to jail?”

Qin Huairu said: "I understand, Shazhu usually helps us a lot. You want Banggeng to plead guilty for Shazhu, so that the child can repay his kindness, right?"

Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to speak, Zhao Desheng on the other side coughed lightly and said, "Let me interrupt. We are here to witness the facts, not to hear how you deceive us police officers. So don't say anything like what you said just now." Sorry, whoever did it is the one who did it. Let’s seek truth from facts!”

"You also heard Huai Ru." Yi Zhonghai sighed, "Today in front of the police comrades, we have to talk about one thing and the other. We must be responsible for every word we said."

He understood the purpose of what Qin Huairu said just now. Qin Huairu actually wanted to "surrender and lose half", claiming that Banggeng took the blame for Silly Zhu in order to repay his kindness, but it was not Banggeng who stole the things.

Qin Huairu felt guilty about Silly Zhu, so she was sincerely thinking of a way to save Silly Zhu. This method was the best of both worlds she came up with, but it was still being brewed and not perfected. Moreover, she was not sure of convincing her mother-in-law. agree.

But in today's scene of the three-court trial, Qin Huairu subconsciously gave in and put forward her own ideas, hoping to take a step back to open up the world.

But she was definitely overthinking it. Not to mention that the police presence would not allow such unflattering things to be openly stated, so why did the old lady hold this meeting?

Not only for the sake of the three-party interrogation, but also to clear the name of her eldest grandson Silly Zhu!

If the police released Sha Zhu in a low-key manner, people who did not know the inside story would think that Sha Zhu was released through the back door. There would be too many rumors in the future, and Sha Zhu would not be able to explain it to everyone one by one, and key people would not believe it.

Now that the real thief has been found in front of everyone, and the police are at the scene to testify, there is no longer any dispute about whether Si Zhu is a thief or not.

The old lady is fine if she doesn't take action. Once she takes action, she must solve the problem quickly and neatly without leaving any hidden dangers, so this matter is non-negotiable.

Unifying the thoughts of the three uncles, holding a meeting, and calling the police were all the old lady's firm determination.

So Su Yi knew that the matter was settled when he heard the old lady's words before, but Qin Huairu was still lucky and did not see the situation clearly.

Qin Huairu's heart sank. The police and the uncle's words made her give up luck, but she didn't give up yet. She was still holding on to the last straw.

She said: "Since you said that, there is no need to call Bangge out."

"Huairu, do you want me to make it clear?" Yi Zhonghai's voice became more severe, "Now call the child out to admit your mistake and apologize to everyone. This is considered surrender. Banggeng'er is young. , there is no need to go to jail, the most is criticism and education. Would you rather let Silly Zhu go to jail than protect Bangge?”

"I understand." Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai, "Are you suspecting that the person who stole the things is Bang Gang? Master, do you have any evidence to catch thieves and seize stolen goods?"

"If you want evidence, then it must be done business!" Yi Zhonghai said, "If we really take that step, there will be no mercy left. Qin Huairu, you have to think clearly and don't harm the child!"

"Master, if you don't have any evidence, you just accuse us of stealing things. Isn't this ruining my child's reputation?" Qin Huairu became excited.

"If you want reputation, don't do bad things!" Yi Zhonghai said.

"Again, where's the evidence?" Qin Huairu became even more excited, "Without evidence, you can just say that our family is a thieves. We are not such bullies, are we? Our orphans and widowed mothers no longer have anyone to make the decision, and we can't Let people throw dirty water on your head like this!”

As she spoke, Qin Huairu burst into tears: "If Jia Dongxu was still alive, I wouldn't believe you would still talk like this!"

What this meant was that Yi Zhonghai bullied orphans and widowed mothers.

The thing that Yi Zhonghai cared about and worried about the most inevitably happened in the end.

He took a deep breath and said: "Huairu, no one bullies you. You speak according to your conscience. Over the years, I have been calling on everyone to take more care of your family. If you want to say that I bully you, you should ask the courtyard. Is this the way I, Yi Zhonghai, behave among the people here?"

He looked around and saw that everyone was either nodding or acquiescing, agreeing with what he said. Then he felt slightly relieved and continued: "It's easy for you to ask for evidence. Just call out the stick. The police comrades are also here. Let's show it in front of you." Ask him in person and you will know if it is true or false.”

"With the posture of these three trials, my legs are shaking now, can the child still be afraid?" Qin Huairu said while wiping her tears, "In this battle, he will admit everything you ask him. Even if you say he killed someone, he will still admit it." Nod, he is afraid... If anything happens, come to me, don't harm my child! As long as there is evidence, I will go to the police station with a stick tied up!"

"If you want to say that, then let the police comrades go to your home and ask." Yi Zhonghai said, "Is that okay?"

"No! Banggeng didn't do anything, why should the police interrogate him?" Qin Huairu cried, "Aren't you bullying others too much? Unless I die, don't think of harming Banggeng!"

"No one wants to harm him, but he has to take responsibility for what Bangge has done!" Yi Zhonghai said.

"Where's the evidence? Why do you say that if there's no evidence? It's so bullying!" Qin Huairu burst into tears.

Yi Zhonghai looked up to the sky and sighed.

Next to them, Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui continued to look at their eyes, nose and heart, as if they had not heard or seen them.

The fortress of Banggan is too difficult to conquer. Now it is only Qin Huairu, and there is also the more difficult Jia Zhang family behind.

At this moment, the old lady paused her crutches vigorously and spoke leisurely.

"Huairu, you want evidence. Do you think we can't produce evidence?" the old lady said, "We are caring for the neighbors and don't want to get things done. You really want evidence?" , the child is eating chicken and meat secretly, someone must have seen it, the police comrades can just go out and ask."

"But when it gets to that point, it can't be settled with an apology or a gift, and there's no room for maneuver." The old lady said, "Everyone can understand that you feel sorry for your child, but it's a good joke. At this point, aren’t you used to being adults?”

"Old lady, Bangge is just a child. Is this what it is?" Qin Huairu cried, "I usually respect the elderly and take care of my neighbors in the courtyard. I don't hesitate to call me when someone has something to do. Why is this happening today?" Such an end? I really don’t want to live..."

"You say you are pitiful, but what about my grandson Silly Zhu? Isn't he pitiable? He became a thief for no reason. If a young man who is not yet married has such a dirty reputation, who girl will be willing to marry him in the future? Is he Are you going to be a bachelor for the rest of your life?" the old lady said sternly. , "He worked hard, but now because of this matter, even if he does not die, he will shed his skin. Is he unjust? Even if he washes away his dirty reputation as a thief today, he will not be able to do anything good! Qin Huairu, Silly Zhu He usually takes good care of you, is it appropriate for you to treat him like this?"

Qin Huairu looked around, feeling completely desperate.

The old lady joined forces with the three uncles, and the police were stationed on the scene. They were determined to do something good. She knew that her son could not be saved.

In other words, she couldn't save it alone.

But there is also the mother-in-law.

Mother-in-law, okay?

She didn't know, but she wasn't willing to let her hands tied like this.

She cried bitterly, and no matter what others said, she would just cry and never say a word again.

Time passed by minute by second, and even Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui couldn't help but say a few words, but Qin Huairu still just cried, and no one should say anything.

There is no way to go on like this. Yi Zhonghai sighed and said: "Who is affected? Go to Huairu's house in the middle courtyard and call out the stick?"

He looked around, but wherever he looked, everyone avoided looking at him.

Call it BangGeng?

Are you kidding me?

Who doesn’t know the notoriety of the Jia Zhang family? No one wants to mess with such a nasty old lady.

And no one thought they could call out Bang Geng.

Even Yi Zhonghai himself knew that even if he went to call, he would get nothing except a scolding.

He was determined to name a young man and force him to go.

But at this moment, the old lady spoke.

"Police comrade, would you mind going to call someone? You are here today to witness and to cooperate with us in the investigation. You can't just sit there and do nothing."

Zhao Desheng thought about it, nodded to the young policeman, and motioned him to go and call.

The young policeman stood up and asked, "Where is the person?"

"The west wing of the central courtyard, the middle door!" someone answered.

Ignorance is fearless. The young policeman stood up and went straight to Qin Huairu's house, "bang bang bang".

After knocking for a long time, no one opened the door. When he pushed the door, it was bolted from the inside, and it was obvious that there was someone inside.

"Comrades inside, open the door, I am a community policeman, please cooperate with us in the investigation." The young policeman frowned and shouted.

No one spoke inside.

Bang, bang, bang!

"I know you're inside, don't pretend you can't hear me!" the young policeman shouted, "Open the door!"

Bang, bang, bang!

"Open the door!"

No matter how the young policeman knocked on the door, there was no sound inside, as if there was really no one.

The young policeman was a little angry and threatened: "If you don't open it, I'll step on the door!"

Still no movement.

Jia Zhangshi refused to be persuaded.

The police couldn't really step on the door, that would be a mistake. The young policeman had little experience, and when he saw this scene, he was immediately at a loss.

Zhao Desheng stood up expressionlessly and walked over.

He patted the young policeman on the shoulder, motioned him to stand aside, then he went forward and knocked on the door and said: "Comrade inside, you can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever. If you are so uncooperative with us, then we will ask your community leaders and your family members' work unit leaders to come to your house to jointly enforce the law, so that you won't regret it when the time comes."

After a pause, he continued: "It's not a big deal, just apologize and write a review and criticism. If you resist, then the problem will be big. I have said so much. If you still don't say anything, then we will handle the matter impartially."

After that, he stood at the door with his hands behind his back and waited for a while. After a while, the door opened with a "creak".

It was Jia Zhang who opened the door.

Zhao Desheng smiled: "That's right - hey? What are you doing?"

Halfway through his words, Zhao Desheng widened his eyes in horror.

Jia Zhang took out a small stool from behind her and placed it in the middle of the door, then stood on it, put a white rope that she had prepared long ago on the door beam, and began to tie the knot.
