Captain Huang was one of them at the beginning.
Although he was not good at doing things, he was very good at flattery, and he persuaded the Shen family's housekeeper to make him the boss.
He had some rights, his treatment was much better than other farmhands, and he could often go in and out of the Shen family.
Landlord Shen was a kind person, so Captain Huang naturally received a lot of rewards.
But because of this, Captain Huang also got to know a little about the Shen family's situation.
Later, when they were fighting the landlords, Captain Huang led a group of guards into the Shen family and looted everything.
Hundreds of mahogany boxes were moved out.
How could Captain Huang not do anything about this?
He must have secretly hidden a lot of the Shen family's gold, silver and jewelry.
It's just a pity for the Shen family. In the end, the family was broken up and only the only child was left. He was scared silly at the time.
But it’s a good thing that the child is stupid, otherwise he probably wouldn’t be alive today.
Although I have become a little beggar now, at least I am alive, right?
After listening to this, Lin Ran sighed and said, "No wonder."
But the problem arises again...
"Captain Huang is so brazen, isn't he afraid that others will become jealous and report him?"
"Who dares to report him? He has a backer. The guard leader was promoted straight up because of that incident. As long as he's around, no one can touch Captain Huang."
Lin Ran suddenly realized and couldn't help asking curiously:
"Where has the head guard climbed to now?"
Shen Wenfang really doesn't know this.
"I didn't pay attention to it at the time, and I didn't even know who it was."
Lin Ran couldn't help but guess:
"Could it be Jia Yongchang?"
Lin Weiguo, who was standing next to him, immediately understood what Lin Ran meant.
"Ranran, do you suspect this incident has something to do with Jia Yongchang?"
Lin Ran nodded and immediately expressed his thoughts.
"I feel like our family hasn't offended anyone. If I really count, it's probably only the Jia family and the Zheng family.
But the Zheng family is now headed by Aunt Zheng, who has no idea about this and can only be a pawn at best.
As for the Jia family, we humiliated Jia Yongchang last time when we dealt with Accountant Zheng. They might be holding a grudge and want to teach my family a lesson."
After listening to Lin Ran's analysis, Lin Weiguo took a puff of cigarette, his eyes drifting away. Suddenly, his expression paused, as if he remembered something.
“Maybe Ranran really guessed it right.
Although I don't know who was the leader of the guards who went to search the landlord Shen's house, I seem to have heard that Jia Yongchang made his fortune by reporting the search and seizure.
It is very likely that he was the head guard from back then.
If that's the case, then the whole thing makes sense.
We also found out why Captain Huang suddenly and inexplicably plotted against our family."
But Shen Wenfang became even more worried when he heard this.
"If Jia Yongchang is really behind this, what can we do? He's the deputy director of the county revolutionary committee. How can we ordinary people fight him?
Then, wouldn't it be impossible for us to clarify today's matter?"
Lin Weiguo sighed upon hearing this and took a deep puff of the cigarette.
"Today's incident is secondary. I'm just worried they might have a trick up their sleeve that's hard to guard against."
Hearing this, others also began to worry.
Seeing this, Lin Ran pinched her handkerchief and thought about a countermeasure in her heart.
The most direct way now is to get Jia Yongchang out of office.
It’s better to have a legitimate reason.
This is both easy and easy. She believed that since someone like Jia Yongchang could climb to the position of deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee, his background must be not clean.
As long as he gets evidence that Jia Yongchang has made a mistake, he can get rid of him openly.
But getting evidence that Jia Yongchang made a mistake is not as simple as just talking.
After all, Jia Yongchang's status is there. Whether it is the family compound or the Revolutionary Committee Office, it is actually not that easy to get in.
Otherwise, she could just use the space to sneak over and look for it.
But since Jia Yongchang is difficult to approach, perhaps we can start with his lackey Captain Huang?
It's a good opportunity to deal with Captain Huang at the same time.
Do you really think her family is so easy to scheme against?
When they went to bed at night, Song Yao turned her head to look at Lin Ran and said with concern:
"Sister Ranran, that auntie next door was really mean today! Is it okay for her to make such a fuss?"
She had just seen the Lin family having dinner, so she went back to Lin Ran's room alone and did not hear the Lin family's discussion.
Lin Ran knew that this was probably the first time Song Yao had seen what it meant to be a shrew scolding in the street, but she didn't want to make Song Yao worry because of her own family affairs, so she chuckled and shook her head.
"It's okay. She always makes a fuss like this. I'm used to it."
Seeing that Lin Ran didn't take it seriously, Song Yao immediately reminded:
"Sister Ranran, you can't let your guard down. I actually saw that aunt talking to a man in secret at the entrance of the brigade today. She might have been talking about your family."
Lin Ran was stunned when he heard this.
"Did you see that?"
"Yes, you weren't at home today, and I was bored here, so I just wandered around the brigade and happened to see it when I walked to the brigade entrance."
As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something and raised her head with a proud smile on her face.
"Sister Ranran, do you think it was my eldest brother who saw it?
Actually, no, I told my elder brother.
When we just arrived, we heard that bad aunt wrongly accusing Uncle Lin. When I saw it was her, I immediately told my eldest brother what I saw today.
At the time, my eldest brother told me not to speak up. He really looked down on me."
