Chapter 341 The Lin Family Was Robberized
Bai Chunhua's intravenous drip has finished today. The doctor told her to have a good rest, but she closed her eyes and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She felt very uncomfortable.
A doctor was called in to check her out, and after examining her, he said there was nothing wrong and that it might be a psychological problem, not a physical one.
On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Gu Huai went to work.
But the army was not busy at this time, so we got off work and went home at 5:30 in the afternoon.
Many people in the family compound went back to their hometowns for the New Year and haven't returned yet, so it's a little deserted.
Commander Zhan and his family are not here either. They all went to Beijing to celebrate the New Year.
Teacher Li gave Yaya some old clothes that her eldest daughter Tingting had worn when she was a child, and also chatted with Yu Hui for a while.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Yu Hui rode her bicycle to the grocery store to buy vegetables. As soon as she entered the door, Xiao Tang shouted at her with a newspaper.
"Xiao Yu, come and see, you and your deputy group leader Gu are on the newspaper."
Yu Hui walked over with a basket of vegetables. The front-page headline of today's newspaper was the news that she and Gu Huai helped the Qing County Public Security Bureau to solve a major human trafficking case. It took up half of the newspaper page.
There are also two large photos, one of receiving a banner, and the other of receiving a pig from the abducted child's family as a thank you.
The newspaper not only introduced her and Gu Huai's identities, but also reported word for word what Yu Hui said when the reporter interviewed her.
Not only did they call for awareness of anti-abduction measures, but they also praised her as the most beautiful stepmother.
Of course, she also praised Gu Huai, who did not take a single needle or thread from the people and donated pork to the orphanage with her, and called him the best soldier of the country and the people.
"Xiao Yu, you are too ideologically conscious when you say these things."
"Look, a reporter even said you are the most beautiful stepmother."
“Although I grew up without a father or a mother and had to eat at many people’s homes, I am the most beautiful daffodil that bloomed amidst hardship.”
Yu Hui felt embarrassed after hearing this and laughed dryly, saying, "Reporters at this newspaper are just good at praising people."
"Sister Yu, you are really amazing. This is the second time you have been in the newspaper. Each time is more admirable than the last." Xiao Zhao looked at Yu Hui with admiration.
Yu Hui felt embarrassed by their stares, so she hurriedly bought some meat and vegetables and left.
Gu Huai was also called to the division headquarters by Political Commissar Gao and his men and was praised a lot.
It was said that he and Yu Hui had set an example for contemporary soldiers and their wives, and they should be praised within the division and given certain rewards.
As for the reward, we will wait until Commander Zhan returns and the division headquarters holds a meeting to decide.
Gu Huai took a newspaper home from the division headquarters. Several children gathered together to look at it for a long time. They were very excited to see themselves in the photos.
Yaya stood at the very edge, watching Brother Gu Dong and the others looking for her in the newspaper. She thought they were all so amazing to be in the newspaper.
My grandfather said that only the most powerful people in the world can read newspapers.
If they were in the newspaper, many people would see them. It would be great if she and her mother could be in the newspaper so that her father could see them.
"Brother Dongdong, how can I get on the newspaper?"
Gu Dong raised his head, thought for a moment, and said, "You have to do something really good and meaningful to be in the newspaper."
"What meaningful thing can I do?" Yaya thought distressedly.
"Do you also want to be in the newspaper?" Gu Nan asked Yaya.
The latter nodded and said, "If Mom and I were in the newspaper, Dad would be able to see us."
"It should be difficult for you to be in the newspaper, but as long as my father knows your father's name, he should be able to find him quickly." Gu Dong said, patting his chest.
Yaya's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Gu Dong said, "My father is the deputy head of the group. When your mother is discharged from the hospital, my father will help you find your father."
After hearing these words, Yaya felt relieved. When she went to see her mother the next day, she told her about this matter.
On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, Lin Siyu and Lu Tianyou returned to their parents' home. Both Lu's father and mother were still angry and had not prepared any gifts for them.
The return gift was bought by Lu Tianyou at the grocery store near his home, which included two bags of candy, a bottle of wine, and a bag of biscuits.
As soon as the two entered the gate of the family compound, the neighbor said to Lin Siyu: "Siyu, you are back. Come home quickly. Your house has been robbed and your mother is so angry that she is sick."
When Lin Siyu heard this, she hurried upstairs.
Seeing the two of them go upstairs, the neighbors whispered, "This is the Lin family getting their comeuppance for their marriage fraud."
The Lin family was in a gloomy mood. Lin Yong, who always liked playing chess, did not go out to play chess. He sat on a chair, smoking a cigarette with a sad face.
Wei Jingfen, who had not yet gone to work, sat on the sofa bench holding her child without saying a word.
"Dad, what's going on? I heard from our neighbors that our house was robbed?" Lin Siyu asked as soon as she entered the door.
Before Lin Yong could answer, Qin Shulan, who was lying in the room, cried out, "Siyu, Siyu, how can Mommy live..."
Lin Siyu hurried into the house and saw her mother Qin Shulan lying on the bed with a haggard look on her face and a hat on her head.
"Mom, what's going on?"
Lu Tianyou put the return gift on the coffee table and followed him into the house.
Qin Shulan held her daughter's hand and cried, "All my money was stolen. Two thousand seven hundred yuan, it was all stolen."
So much money? Lu Tianyou took a breath.
In the living room, Lin Yong yelled impatiently, "If you had listened to me and put the money in the bank earlier, would it have been stolen?"
He had said it a long time ago that it was not safe to keep money at home, and it was better to deposit it in the bank for insurance.
This stupid woman didn't believe it and insisted that she was not sure about depositing it in the bank and that she would feel more at ease if she could see it herself.
Now, there is nothing left, everything was stolen.
"Wuwuwu..." Qin Shulan cried even louder.
"Mom, don't keep crying." Lin Siyu felt very annoyed when she heard the crying. Can crying solve the problem?
"How on earth was the money stolen?"
Qin Shulan sobbed and said, "I wrapped my money in several layers of cloth and hid it under the bed. I hid it really well. It has been hidden like this for more than ten years and it has never been stolen."
"Yesterday your father went out to play chess, and your sister-in-law took the children back to her parents' home. When I came back from buying groceries, I saw the door was open and no one was inside."
"I felt something was wrong at the time. I went into the bedroom and saw that the quilt on the bed was a little messy. I moved the bed board aside and saw that all the money was gone."
"Your betrothal gift, the money I received from the wedding banquet, and the 2,500-plus yuan I saved were all stolen. Woo woo woo..."
Wei Jingfen put the child down, walked to the door and shouted, "It must be you, Mom, who went out to buy groceries and forgot to lock the door, so it was stolen!"
"That's over 2,700 yuan. There's nothing good you can do with that much money. It was all stolen because of your carelessness, Mom."
Wei Jingfen was no less heartbroken than Qin Shulan. You know, if the money had not been stolen, it would have belonged to her and Lin Zhongbao in the future.
"I locked the door. After I locked it, I pulled it again to make sure it was locked before I left." Qin Shulan retorted crying. This was a habit she had had for many years.
"The lock hasn't been picked, so it must be you who left the door unlocked!"
"Did your money get stolen?" Lin Siyu asked Wei Jingfen.
The latter was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "I hid my money better than my mother did, so it wasn't stolen."
"Has the room been searched?"
Wei Jingfen shook her head, "No."
Lin Siyu always felt that something was wrong. She frowned and thought for a long time, then turned to look at Wei Jingfen and asked, "Where is Lin Zhongbao?"
Such a big thing happened at home, why is Lin Zhongbao not here?
