"Oh, right, you're still taking the compensation for nothing. I'd have forgotten about it if you hadn't come. I have to report it and get it back. You're fine, so why would you ask for compensation?"
"Also, the house you're living in now, the driver who was dismissed, definitely can't live there anymore. You should move out as soon as possible."
Minister Zheng didn't intend to take things too far, but if these people don't teach them a lesson, there will be more trouble in the future.
The two families were dumbfounded. What did this mean? They wanted their money back, and they couldn't even live in their house?
"Minister, you are trying to force our family to death!" The two families were even more relentless.
"Did I force you? You used the compensation for the two sons to buy jobs for the other sons. They live in the house of the Ministry of Transport and kicked out their wives and children."
"Now that he's back safely, instead of feeling fortunate, you're here to demand benefits."
"Are Comrade Fu Erwa and Comrade Song Dagen aware of this? Also, this is the Ministry of Transportation, not a place for you to cause trouble. If you do this again, I will definitely report you to the police. You must leave here immediately."
Minister Zheng made a special investigation and felt aggrieved for the two men when he heard about this. How could these people have the nerve to come here and cause trouble under the banner of the two men?
The two families lowered their heads in embarrassment after hearing what Minister Zheng said. They didn't expect that in the end they would get nothing and even lose their money and house. If they had known this, they would not have come to make trouble.
"Minister Zheng, where are we going to move to with such a big family? Look, Erwa and Dagen have suffered a lot. Forget about the work, can you let us live in this house first?"
The two families no longer had the arrogance they had at the beginning. Erwa and Dagen were the first boys born in both families.
At that time, the other children were still young, and their family saved money to buy them this job. Both of them were hardworking and finally got a house.
The two families moved from their previous shared house to the Ministry of Transport’s staff housing compound. I wonder how many people envied them.
Ever since the accident, only the old couple and other children have been living at home, and the house has become much more spacious.
As for their wives and children, both families tacitly returned to their hometown.
There is no place for them to live here, and my youngest son will need a house when he gets married and has children.
Now if the house is taken back, where will they live? And the money they spent on buying a job for their youngest son, where will the money come from?
"This is the Ministry of Transport's rule. The Ministry of Transport's houses can only be occupied by our own workers. Who in your family is a worker at the Ministry of Transport? I didn't mention this originally because your Erwa and Dagen died while transporting goods for the Ministry of Transport."
"But now they're fine, so we should settle the matter. Don't tell me how much they've suffered. If you, their relatives, don't feel sorry for them, then I, an outsider, will feel even less."
"I can only act according to the policy. You should go back and prepare, whether it's money or a house, as soon as possible."
Minister Zheng did not give in at all. After saying this, he had them kicked out. The two families got nothing from this trip.
After Song Dagen and Fu Erwa settled everything at the Ministry of Public Security, they were afraid that their family members would be worried seeing them in such a state, so they stayed at Wu Ye's place for two more days before returning home.
Especially Song Dagen, he thought that his wife had just given birth to a child and he didn't know how his son was doing.
If he wasn't afraid that he would be as thin as a ghost and scare his wife and children when he got home, he wouldn't have been able to wait even a day.
When Song Dagen returned home, he saw his family sitting in the house with sad faces.
His sister-in-law was crying and making a fuss with a big belly, so Song Dagen hurried into the house.
"Dagen?" Song Dagen's mother was the first person to see him. She looked at her son who was as thin as skin and bones and burst into tears.
"My dear Dagen, how did you become like this?" Song Dagen's mother hugged Song Dagen and cried heartbreakingly, and Song Dagen's father was also very uncomfortable.
The other brothers and sisters sat there in silence, wondering why he wasn't really dead? If he were dead, they wouldn't have to return the house and the money.
"Now that Big Brother is back, we have to discuss who should get the money. This whole thing was caused by Big Brother, and now that the Ministry of Transport is demanding compensation, Big Brother should also bear the responsibility."
Seeing this man, Song Dagen's second brother's wife became even more angry. Her mother-in-law came back and told her about the Ministry of Transport's plan. She was angry that this man didn't die!
Life at home was just getting better, but now everything is gone. It's all Song Dagen's fault.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Where are my wife and children?" Song Dagen knew that the matters in the Ministry of Transport still had to be resolved by him.
But he wanted to see his wife and children first, otherwise he wouldn't be able to rest in peace for a whole day.
"Your wife and child? Dagen! Listen to what mother said...your wife was too sad to stay here, so she took the child back to her hometown in the countryside."
Dagen's mother was stunned for a moment, then looked at Dagen and found an excuse.
"Mom, my wife and children went back to their hometown? Why didn't you stop them? How long has it been since anyone lived there? What will they eat and drink when they go back?" Song Dagen looked at his parents in disbelief.
He hurriedly turned around and ran towards his hometown, even though at this time he had not yet doubted that his parents could be so cruel.
He thought his wife was really moved by the scene and wanted to go back to her hometown for a few days before coming back.
It was not until he returned to his hometown that he saw his wife and children huddled in the half-collapsed house.
It was such a cold day and the two of them only had a thin quilt full of holes. Both of their faces were very pale, and next to them were tree roots and wild vegetable cakes that came from nowhere.
Song Dagen didn't dare to move forward. He seemed to see himself being locked up, and he was afraid that his wife and children would not survive.
Song Dagen's wife seemed to sense something and looked towards the door in a daze. When she saw Song Dagen, she smiled and said, "Dagen! We finally meet. Now our family of three will never be separated again, right?"
Song Dagen's wife thought she had come to the underworld and saw her husband whom she had been thinking about all the time.
It was not until the child in her arms started crying that Song Dagen's wife habitually wanted to bite her fingers to feed the child, and then she felt something was wrong.
Song Dagen could no longer control himself and burst into tears while hugging his wife and children. He didn't realize that he was crying for the hardships he had suffered recently.
He was still crying about his wife and children's current condition, and he felt like he could hardly breathe.
"Wife, I'm sorry, I came back late, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Song Dagen didn't know what else to say, he could only hug her and cry.
It took Song Dagen's wife a long time to come back to her senses. Dagen was not dead, he was really not dead.
