Chapter 127: Zhou Lan City Police Visit
One night passed in a flash.
The next morning, Gu Yuehuai was awakened by a series of knocks on the door.
Secretary Wang Fu's voice was loud and clear, and the wooden door was banging loudly: "Old Gu, are you awake? Hurry up!"
When Gu Yuehuai put on her clothes and walked out of the room, she saw Gu Zhifeng rushing out from the inner room. His face was dazed as if he had just woken up. When he saw Gu Yuehuai, he waved to her and went forward to open the door.
"Secretary, it's so early in the morning, you..."
Gu Zhifeng rubbed his eyes somewhat dissatisfiedly, but as soon as the door opened, his sleepiness instantly disappeared.
"This...what is this?" He stood up straight unconsciously, his tone a little nervous.
Wang Fu glanced at the two people next to him, cleared his throat, and said, "Where's Xiao Gu? Gu Yuehuai, ask her to come out for a moment. The comrades from the Zhoulan City Police Department are looking for her. They said they want to investigate and visit the abducted girl."
When the door opened, Gu Yuehuai saw two policemen in uniform standing with Wang Fu, with the logo of "Zhoulan City Police Station" marked on their shoulders.
However, it has been less than a month since she brought Yan Shaotang back, so why did they come to her house?
Could it be... Could it be that they contacted the capital, contacted Yan Shaoyu? !
This thought made Gu Yuehuai's heart pound uncontrollably. She took a few steps forward and said, "Comrade police officer, I am Gu Yuehuai. I was the one who went to the police station to take the statement."
One of the two policemen looked familiar. He nodded and said politely, "Hello, Comrade Gu. Don't be nervous. We are here today to see the little girl named Yan Shaotang."
Yan Shaotang? Isn't it Gu Shaotang? Gu Zhifeng was a little confused.
Gu Yuehuai nodded and said, "Comrade police officer, please come in. Shaotang is still sleeping."
Gu Zhifeng also stepped aside and hurriedly welcomed the two policemen and Wang Fu in.
After entering the house, Gu Yuehuai led the person to the room.
Yan Shaotang was sleeping soundly. The little girl's face was fair and plump compared to half a month ago. The little hands sticking out of the quilt were also fleshier. She was tidy and clean, not at all the disheveled look she had when they first met.
The two policemen's expressions softened slightly, and they looked at Yue Huai with some kindness.
Several people tiptoed out of the room, and the police officer said, "Comrade Gu took good care of Yan Shaotang."
Gu Yuehuai shook his head and said softly: "It's what I should do."
After she finished speaking, she looked up at the two of them again and asked curiously, "Comrade police officer, have you reported this human trafficking case to the capital? Have you contacted Yan Shaotang's brother? His name is Yan Shaoyu."
The two police officers looked at each other and said, "A few days ago, the Beijing General Administration investigated all the human trafficking cases in the cities and counties under its jurisdiction. We reported them all, but we didn't get any feedback. It seems that the Beijing authorities have not contacted her family."
Hearing this, Gu Yuehuai's eyes flashed, and a faint light passed through his eyes.
As expected, Yan Shaoyu's life is not easy now. His family should be in a period of chaos at this time, and people are targeting him everywhere. Even no one cares about Yan Shaotang's news, and no one tells Yan Shaoyu.
However, he will eventually come to the countryside to join the production team, it won’t be long.
A policeman said: "I hope Comrade Gu will continue to take care of Yan Shaotang until her family comes to find her."
The police station had the transcript and knew that Yan Shaotang's brother and Gu Yuehuai were an engaged couple, so they were relatively relieved about it. However, the other day the capital suddenly launched an investigation into abducted girls, so they paid more attention to it and came to pay a return visit.
Now it seems that Gu Yuehuai is trustworthy.
Gu Yuehuai said in a very serious tone: "Don't worry, police comrade."
The two policemen made some more records and completed the follow-up visit. They left the Dalaozi Production Brigade without even having breakfast. As soon as they left, Wang Fu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He had just got up early in the morning when two policemen from Zhoulan City came to his door. He was startled and thought he had committed some crime. Only when he heard that it was the little girl adopted by Gu Yuehuai did they bring people over.
You know what, these people are really afraid of dealing with the police. They always feel like a mouse seeing a cat.
Gu Zhifeng also breathed a sigh of relief and said to Wang Fu, "Secretary, you haven't eaten yet, right? Eat something at home?"
"What to eat? We have to go to the team. It's time to hand in the public grain soon. There are a lot of things to do in the team." Wang Fu took a puff of his pipe and walked away with his hands behind his back.
"Pay public grain?" Gu Zhifeng was stunned. He had never heard Gu Yuehuai mention it.
"Well, the leader of the commune said yesterday that we have to pay the public grain soon." Gu Yuehuai nodded. Now that the autumn harvest has just passed and the grain has been harvested, it is natural to start paying the public grain. It is a routine matter and it should be done.
However, the disaster in the team was about to be exposed, and it would not be resolved until the next year.
Gu Zhifeng said with a sigh, "I don't know what the grain quota for public grain is this year. I hope they can leave more for us so that the people can have a good year with enough food to eat."
Gu Yuehuai glanced at his father and sighed in his heart, this idea was destined not to become a reality.
Breakfast was ready and Gu Yuehuai took a quick bite. Just as he was about to pick up the basket and go to the black market, his uncle Gu Tianfeng came on a bicycle. Looking at his sad face, he knew that it was not a good thing.
As expected.
After Gu Tianfeng entered the room, he sat on the kang without saying a word, like a sculpture.
"Brother, what are you doing here today? If nothing else, I have to go to work. Nannan, what time is it?" Gu Zhifeng rolled up his sleeves, turned around and asked Gu Yuehuai, because he knew that his daughter had bought a watch.
Gu Yuehuai took a look: "Half past six."
Gu Tianfeng looked at the watch on Gu Yuehuai's wrist in surprise. It was a Haishi brand watch, which was selling like hot cakes. One watch cost at least eighty or ninety yuan. Even if you had the money to buy it, you couldn't buy it without a watch ticket. It was considered a luxury item!
His eyes flashed slightly and he looked at Gu Yuehuai in surprise.
Could it be true that as Yinfeng said, the Zhifeng family has become rich?
"It's half past six, brother. I really have to go. My daughter, scoop a bowl of porridge for your uncle. Dad is going to work first." Gu Zhifeng said, and called Gu Tinghuai, who had swallowed a bowl of porridge in a hurry, and prepared to go out.
When he left, Gu Tianfeng became anxious: "Hey, wait! Zhifeng, big brother has something to tell you!"
Gu Zhifeng frowned, and also realized something was wrong: "What are you talking about? Big brother, tell me."
Gu Tianfeng looked at his brother and thought of his son who was getting married. He still said, "That's it... that's it. Can you lend me a hundred dollars, big brother?"
"What? One hundred dollars?" Gu Zhifeng took a breath. One hundred dollars?
Gu Yuehuai watched coldly without interrupting.
Gu Tinghuai said quickly, "Uncle, you know what my family's conditions are. We can't make as much as you do working in the meat processing factory. Even if we sell our whole family, we still can't make that much. How can I lend you money?"
