Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Our house was raided by the Japanese devils...
The Song family was in a state of panic.
They were determined to send Song Ruan to the countryside empty-handed without paying her a penny, fearing that if they returned too early she would be left behind. Despite the nurse's urging, they dragged their feet until the sun was setting before they reluctantly left the hospital.
They imagined that after Song Ruan had learned her lesson, she would come to them in tears to admit her mistake, and the family would walk back happily, with the conversation full of relief and beautiful fantasies.
"Dad, you must beat her up when the time comes. It hurts so much!" Song Jiabao said coquettishly.
Song Guogang glared and said, "Okay, I'll tie her up for you and you can beat her yourself! How dare a bitch who wants to pay you back rebel? Just don't break her face, or I'll have to change your job."
Song Jiabao grumbled somewhat dissatisfiedly: "Just a temporary worker."
Song Guogang coaxed him: "Wouldn't it be easy to get you a permanent job after your sister has established herself in Director Ma's family?"
Song Li listened to their light-hearted conversation, as if they were just talking about a cat or a dog, and felt a chill in her heart. Before she had time to think about it, her eyes paused in front of the door: "Why do I feel a little... different?"
While she was still thinking, Zhang Meijuan, who opened the door first, was stunned by the scene before her.
Two screams sounded almost simultaneously:
"Where are the stove and pot at the door?"
“Where are the things at home????”
Zhang Meijuan's voice was shrill, like an old duck that had been injured: "Jiabao's father, Jiabao's father, it's terrible, there's a thief in our house!!"
"What?!"
The few people who were originally hanging slowly at the back suddenly rushed up in two steps at a time, and froze in place together with Zhang Meijuan.
They had never seen such a spacious, clean and unobstructed home. It was empty everywhere, with only a few gray concrete pillars supporting the house, but it seemed thinner than before - so bleak that the northwest wind would make them shed tears.
In the silence, Song Li was the first to come back to her senses and rushed to her room.
Her screams reached the door unimpeded: "My box! My bed! My...quilt!!"
Her remaining sanity prevented her from wailing over her lost pocket money, and she turned to other excuses to vent.
"Oh my god, all my things are gone, my clothes, my shoes, even my broken hairpin is gone!!!"
Like a horn, the Song family rushed into their respective rooms, wailing one after another:
"Where's the cabinet?"
"Mom, my box is missing!!!"
"Where's my money?"
Zhang Meijuan collapsed to the ground as if her bones had been pulled out, crying and slapping her thighs: "Our house was raided by the Japanese devils!!!"
Song Guogang stumbled out and said, "Call the police! I'm going to call the police!"
The tube-shaped building was not soundproof, and the commotion at the Song family soon attracted the neighbors, led by Aunt Zhou next door. Some were holding melon seeds, some were holding children, and some were even eating, but they came over with their bowls, almost surrounding the scene.
Although people were just there to watch the excitement, most people these days were still enthusiastic. As soon as the police arrived at the family compound, everyone gathered around and described the miserable situation of the Song family.
"Oh, the Song family is in trouble. Everything they have has been stolen."
"Why do I feel like her house is taller? Damn, even the wallpaper was removed!"
"I've never seen such an arrogant thief in my life. You must catch him."
"Yes, yes, what if he comes to steal our house again?
The police walked around the house and were shocked by the bare snow cave-like house: "When was the last time you left home?"
"Yesterday! Last night!" Zhang Meijuan was distraught. "Our whole family went to the hospital and didn't come back all night. Only my third daughter, Song Ruan, was at home."
"Where's your third girl?"
"Gone, going to the countryside, this morning's ticket."
"Then we can't get in touch with you at this time," the police officer said in a somewhat awkward tone, "Have you had any conflicts with anyone recently?"
Song Li rushed out of the room, screaming hysterically: "Public Security Comrade, it's Song Ruan! She must be holding a grudge against us because of her going to the countryside. She has been making trouble at home for a long time. She must have taken everything at home and ran away! Go catch her!!"
The police officer frowned seriously.
Aunt Zhou couldn't stand it any longer: "Girl Li, you are being heartless when you say that. Your family didn't prepare anything for a little girl. When she left, her bag was not even as big as your mother's when she went back to her parents' home. How could she have taken so many things from your house?"
After hearing this, the people who met Song Ruan yesterday also remembered: "Yes, yes, it's a very small package."
The police officer was already 70% to 80% convinced, and with the last bit of rigor in his heart, he asked, "Did you see her leave with your own eyes? Do you remember the specific circumstances at that time?"
Aunt Zhou likes the feeling of being in the spotlight, especially when a "high-ranking" police officer asks her questions. She raises her chin with pride, rolls up her sleeves and begins her performance: "You've asked the right person!"
"My family had just finished dinner, and I was cleaning up the dishes at the door. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Song Ruan crying as she walked out with a small bag on her back. When I asked her, she said her second sister had signed her up to go to the countryside, and she had to leave now."
The people around gasped and looked at Song Li strangely.
Everyone knows that it is hard to go to the countryside and no one wants to go there, but no matter what, you can't let your sister down. Your sister still has a job.
Given the current atmosphere, no one dared to say it directly, but they all subconsciously moved a little further away from her.
——This woman is vicious.
Song Li's face turned pale and blue.
"She also said that her parents wanted to marry her to Director Ma of the winery, and then she would marry him back home - ah, is that something you can say?" She covered her mouth in surprise.
The people around took a deep breath again. The remarried old man who beat his wife away was well-known in this area.
If parents have a little conscience, they will not push their daughter into this fire pit.
Then all the strange looks fell on the old couple again.
——These two are also poisonous.
Now the couple from the Song family had blue and white on their faces.
Aunt Zhou added: "We haven't prepared anything for her yet. She went to get a piece of candy for my grandson and turned the package inside out. I just saw some tattered clothes and quilts. It was pitiful."
Song Guogang couldn't hold back his pride and pushed Zhang Meijuan forward.
“Dangdangdangdangdangdang~~”
A group of people came from outside the family compound, beating gongs and drums, and the leader shouted at the top of his voice: "Is this Song Li's house?"
"Ah?" The eyes of the people around all fell back on Song Li.
Looking at the scene that seemed familiar for some reason, Song Li felt uneasy and took a step forward with a trembling voice: "It's me."
The group of people crowded around, some wearing red flowers, some clapping: "Salute to the educated youth who volunteered to go to the countryside! Here are your notice and train tickets, take them."
"What???" Song Li screamed, but she didn't dare to be too aggressive for fear of being criticized, so she tried to remain calm, "Did you make a mistake? I didn't sign up to go to the countryside?"
Zhang Meijuan came over eagerly: "Yes, leader, there is already someone in our family who has gone to the countryside, my third daughter, Song Ruan."
The person from the Youth League Office frowned and compared the list in his hand: "Your name is not Song Li?"
“Yes, yes, but…”
"That's right. Think about it again. It was you who asked your sister to apply for you, and she specifically chose the southwestern border."
How could Song Li not understand this? He was anxious, angry, and scared, and he fell down straight away without being able to catch his breath.
The blow hit Song Guogang's splinted hand with a loud bang.
"Ah!!" Song Guogang almost fainted.
Looking at the chaotic situation in front of them, the people from the Youth Office also had an idea in their minds and stuffed something into Zhang Meijuan's hands:
"Okay, we have already notified everyone. Remember to tell your girl to gather at the station at nine o'clock the day after tomorrow."
People around were whispering.
"Just now the Youth Office said who signed up for it?"
"It's the third brother, Song Ruan, who was tricked into going to the countryside."
“Ah, this…”
Zhang Meijuan hurriedly took the report and ticket. Looking at the bare house, her husband lying on the ground groaning, her fainted daughter, and the crowd of people watching the excitement, she finally couldn't help herself and broke down crying: "Can someone help me?"
The crowd fell silent and took a step back in tacit understanding.
It seems that this family is not a simple character.
It’s better not to get involved.
Song Ruan and the system laughed out loud.
The system spat out the melon seed shells and gloated over the misfortune:
[That bitch wanted to throw dirty water on you, hey, she fainted, look at her face, it’s been smashed into a shoe horn hehehe]
Suddenly, a ding sound came from both of their minds at the same time:
[Administrator's note: You were found to have used vulgar language in your conversation with the host, and you are being warned. Building a civilized space-time administration is everyone’s responsibility]
[Administrator Tip: We have detected that your system is using vulgar language in the conversation with you. If you feel that your personality has been insulted, please click here to report it.]
Song Ruan: ...
system:……
She said dryly: "You guys...are really formal, and the hosts are treated pretty well."
The anti-essence system snorted unhappily:
[This damn random inspection doesn’t come when I’m working overtime, but I’m the one picked when I occasionally complain]
Song Ruan felt sympathetic: "Just like when I was a kid, I worked hard and was sweating profusely, but my adoptive parents didn't come. I was caught just when I drank a sip of water, and then I was punished. It was really weird."
The system saw that she was like a soulmate, so it immediately found a bottle of drink and said, "Come on, let's go."
Song Ruan took out her enamel pot and gently touched it to her head: "Chelsea."
At this point, the relationship between the two took a step further, and during the rest of the journey, they would occasionally admire and comment on the chaos of the Old Song family.
She was especially happy when she saw them going to the textile factory to exchange her job for some "post-disaster reconstruction funds", but being told that the job had been sold long ago and they had to go home empty-handed and furious.
The air was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
The train rattled along for three days. As they were about to reach Heilongjiang Province, Song Ruan suddenly had an idea: "Tongtong, does your broadcast function cover all places? Can I see the situation of the Dongfeng Brigade in advance? I want to learn about it and prepare in advance."
[That won’t work]
The system is a bit regretful. [This is limited. I can call up the footage of Lao Song's house because that is considered "your home", but the Dongfeng Brigade is not. I don't have the authority to broadcast it.]
"Is that so?" Song Ruan raised her eyes sharply. "Then after I move into the Youth League Center, can you help me call up the pictures of the Youth League Center even if I go out? After all, that is my home, my new home."
The system thought about it:
【Can】
Song Ruan leaned back in his chair contentedly: Isn't this just an additional remote monitoring function?
