Chapter 111 Chapter 111 Yu Jiamin...
Yu Jiamin rode her bicycle with Yu Jiajia on the back to the health center.
Yu Jiajia was overjoyed that her third sister was going to become a police officer: "Third sister, you'll look absolutely stunning in your police uniform! I wonder which police station you'll be working for!"
Hearing this, Yu Jiamin felt a surge of warmth in her heart. The thought of soon wearing a police uniform filled her with energy. Her future was completely different, leading down a different path. She chuckled, "I'll follow the organization's assignment; anywhere is fine."
When I passed by the state-run restaurant, I bought six steamed buns for Su Wanzhen and her daughter for dinner. When I arrived at the health center, I was just about to ask the doctors and nurses when I saw an old lady from Guangming Hutong.
The old woman also saw Yu Jiajia and her sister, and quickly ran over, excitedly asking, "Teacher Yu, is that beast Li Mancang really locked up? Is he really going to be executed?"
She didn't go with them. Although she had just heard others say it, she still wanted to hear it from Teacher Yu again.
Yu Jiamin: "They've already been locked up! Zhang Jianbang has also been locked up. Director Xu has also been dismissed for negligence."
The old woman became even more agitated: "Director Xu from the neighborhood committee?"
Yu Jiamin nodded.
The old lady slapped her thigh with joy: "Director Lu is truly a just and upright official!"
Director Xu is no good cadre. If you ask him to do something, he will make excuses and refuse. If you don't give him something, he won't do it properly.
How could Director Xu not know about Li Mancang, that tyrant?
It's not that no one reported it to Director Xu. Director Xu would try to manage it at first, but Li Mancang was really arrogant. He would carry a brick and loiter in front of Director Xu's house. He wouldn't do anything, he would just loiter.
Later, Director Xu stopped interfering and even advised the neighbors to be considerate of each other, and the matter was over.
Li Mancang was far from modest; everyone was simply afraid of him.
Over time, everyone got used to Li Mancang's exploitation, and they would avoid him if they could, or cower in fear if they could.
Now that Li Mancang is finished and Director Xu has stepped down, the dark clouds that had been obscuring Guangming Hutong have finally dissipated!
Yu Jiamin said, "If we encounter any problems in the future that the Public Security Bureau can't solve, we'll go to the Subdistrict Office. If the Subdistrict Office can't solve them either, we'll go to the County Revolutionary Committee! We will never be bullied or threatened." She then asked, "How are Miaomiao and her daughter?"
"It's so good, Qingshan County is so good." The old woman choked up, wiping away her tears, and said about Miaomiao and her daughter: "Sigh. They're still the same as before, they've been beaten like this before, but they'll be fine after a few days of rest. Daughter, thank you so much. We neighbors are alright, we just avoid them. But Xiao Su and her daughter are really pitiful. They get beaten every few days. Some are just bruised and swollen, some are so bad they can't even walk. Miaomiao has been kneeling since she was little."
Su Wanzhen had a hard life. Not long after giving birth to Miaomiao, her husband fell into the river and drowned when he was coming off his night shift. After his death, she was left with only a widow and her child. She had to deal with the house and the job, and both her family and her husband's family were fighting over it. Su Wanzhen was also too weak-willed, so she thought about finding a man who could handle things and marry into the family so that he could also support the household.
Li Mancang fits the bill perfectly. He was a big, burly man who carried heavy loads at the grain station. He was exceptionally kind to Su Wanzhen and Miaomiao, and he drove away both Su Wanzhen's family and in-laws.
Su Wanzhen hesitated, fearing she might invite trouble, but Li Mancang was good at pretending, appearing honest and dutiful. After carrying heavy loads, he would come to her house to help, buy snacks for Miaomiao, make toys, and treat Miaomiao like his own daughter.
Su Wanzhen was just an ordinary woman. Being protected like this made her feel safe. The neighbors also thought Li Mancang was a good person and would speak well of him. The two quickly got their marriage certificate.
The first year was actually alright. Li Mancang wasn't as considerate and attentive as before the marriage, but at least he didn't lay a hand on Su Wanzhen and her daughter. However, in the second year, when Su Wanzhen became pregnant, Li Mancang's true colors were revealed. After drinking, he attacked Su Wanzhen. This time, the beating wasn't too severe, and neighbors came to intervene. But this seemed to be a switch that unlocked the evil in Li Mancang's nature. From then on, he would beat and verbally abuse Su Wanzhen, and even caused her to abort her unborn child.
The neighbors couldn't stand it anymore and thought Li Mancang was a scoundrel, so Li Mancang beat up the neighbors as well.
Su Wanzhen hadn't considered divorce at this point, until Li Mancang even beat Miaomiao and made her kneel in the corner. Only then did Su Wanzhen start thinking about divorce.
But how could Li Mancang get a divorce? He wouldn't. If Su Wanzhen insisted on a divorce, he would kill the mother and daughter.
He actually took a kitchen knife and was about to cut off Miao Miao's head. Her neck was bleeding. Su Wanzhen knelt down and begged him, saying she would never get a divorce again.
As the days went by, Su Wanzhen longed for Miaomiao to grow up and get married.
Unexpectedly, Li Mancang harbored evil intentions towards Miaomiao.
The old woman said, "It's a good thing you came, otherwise... Xiao Su and her daughter really wouldn't have survived."
The old lady led Yu Jiajia and her mother to the ward. There were several other women in the ward, all there to visit Su Wanzhen and her daughter. Su Wanzhen's wounds had been bandaged and she was receiving an IV drip.
The mother and daughter were both crying. They had received good news from their neighbors: Li Mancang had been imprisoned and might even be executed. They would finally no longer be oppressed by Li Mancang.
They are finally free.
Upon seeing Yu Jiamin and Yu Jiajia, Su Wanzhen was about to kneel down before them.
Yu Jiamin helped Su Wanzhen and Li Miaomiao.
Su Wanzhen cried and said, "Thank you, you are our saviors, you saved our lives."
They saved them and also protected Miao Miao's reputation.
The power of role models is boundless. A special reward is hereby granted: (Memory +1) *1 + Pen *1 + 100 yuan, Ventriloquism *1 (1/5) ];
Another special reward!
Who almost lost their life?
Yu Jiajia was also very glad that her third sister came to visit her home!
Yu Jiamin patted Li Miaomiao's head: "Li Mancang has been arrested and won't be coming out again. Don't be afraid anymore. Take good care of yourself and your mother. When your mother gets better, you can come back to school. Don't forget to do your homework these next few days. I brought your test paper."
Although I can't take the college entrance exam, studying hard is always useful.
Even if you want to get a job in a factory, you need a junior high or high school education. You can't get in if you dropped out of elementary school.
She took out several test papers and two pencils from her schoolbag and handed them to Li Miaomiao.
Yu Jiajia's eye twitched. Her third sister had actually brought an exam paper with her during her home visit!
With tears in her eyes, Li Miaomiao said, "Thank you, Teacher Yu."
Su Wanzhen choked up, "Miaomiao will go to school tomorrow. I will definitely support her to finish high school."
Yu Jiamin: "If you encounter any difficulties in life in the future, Miaomiao, come to your teacher, and your teacher will protect you." She then handed the bun wrapped in oil paper to Li Miaomiao: "Eat well, teacher is leaving now."
Li Miaomiao refused, and Su Wanzhen also said that she could go home after receiving the IV drip, as there was already food cooked at home.
Yu Jiamin forced the steamed buns onto Li Miaomiao and left the health center with Yu Jiajia.
The two sisters went straight home and saw Qin Shuo at the gate of the residential compound. He was standing next to his bicycle, looking very desolate and lonely. When he saw Yu Jiamin, he quickly ran over and called out, "Minmin."
Yu Jiamin braked and stopped: "This is pointless. Wouldn't it be better to part ways amicably?"
Qin Shuo looked hurt: "Minmin, don't treat me like this. My heart is aching."
Yu Jiamin: "What does this have to do with me? I'm very happy right now. Don't ever show your face in front of me again, or I'll beat you every time I see you." She raised her hand, and Qin Shuo immediately backed away.
Yu Jiajia: "It seems that taking action is more effective."
Qin Shuo was even more hurt. He looked at Yu Jiamin, wanting to get closer, but he couldn't. The two were so close, yet it felt like there was a galaxy between them.
When they got home, they found Grandma Yu talking to Qin Zhaozhao. When she saw Yu Jiajia and Qin Zhaozhao return, she quickly said, "Jiamin, Zhaozhao has been here for a while."
When Qin Zhaozhao saw Yu Jiamin, tears welled up in her eyes. "Minmin, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I'm the one who hurt you."
Judging from her red and swollen eyes, she must have cried a lot that afternoon.
Yu Jiamin stepped forward and took out a handkerchief to wipe away Yu Jiamin's tears: "What does this have to do with you? You're taking all the blame on yourself. It's just that Qin Shuo and I weren't meant to be, it has nothing to do with you. Okay, stop crying. Breaking up isn't a bad thing, why are you crying like this?"
Qin Zhaozhao looked at Yu Jiamin with tears in her eyes, "Really?"
Yu Jiamin: "Really, I have one more thing to share: I'm going to become a police officer."
Qin Zhaozhao:! ! !
Grandma Yu exclaimed excitedly, "The police? Really?"
Yu Jiamin nodded: "If Director Lu said it himself, then it must be true!"
Grandma Yu: "Oh my, this is wonderful!"
Being a teacher these days isn't good at all. The status isn't high, and you can't discipline students! You have to be extremely careful during class; you might get criticized by revolutionary students for just one sentence. Being a police officer is much better! High status! Jiamin is also very strong; she's born to be a police officer.
Looking at Yu Jiamin's bright face, Qin Zhaozhao felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders.
Yu Jiamin held Qin Zhaozhao's hand and said, "Come on, let's go to my room to talk."
Qin Zhaozhao followed Yu Jiamin into the bedroom.
Yu Jiajia was outside sharing what happened this afternoon with Grandma Yu.
Grandma Yu: "!!! Which bastard dares to bully the whole compound? And for over ten years??? My goodness, the whole compound is really tolerant! If I were in this compound, I'd teach that bastard a lesson and make him get lost."
Yu Jiajia immediately praised, "No wonder my grandma is so amazing! No one else can compare! She dealt with Grandpa Wang and Grandpa Hu with ease. If Li Mancang were in front of my grandma, she would have beaten him to a pulp."
Grandma Yu laughed, "It probably isn't that powerful."
“Yes! Grandma is amazing.” Yu Jiajia added, “Later, Brother Chenzhou praised Third Sister for being brave, resourceful, courageous, and upright, making her especially suitable for the public security front!”
Grandma Yu beamed with joy, repeatedly saying, "Good job, police! Jiamin will definitely be a good police officer in the future!"
After a while, Yu Songyan returned: "Why are you so happy? What good news is it?"
Yu Jiajia: "Third Sister is going to become a police officer!"
Yu Songyan smiled as well: "That's truly a double blessing."
Today it was Yu Songqing's turn to cook, but he was working overtime at the factory, so Yu Songyan cooked for him first, with Grandma Yu helping out. Yu Jiajia didn't like to cook, so she cheered her on from the sidelines.
When Qin Zhaozhao and Yu Jiamin came out together, Qin Zhaozhao had already been coaxed and her face was full of smiles. She realized that it was a good thing that Yu Jiamin and Qin Shuo broke up.
Qin Shuo is not good enough for such a wonderful person as Minmin.
And Minmin will be a police officer from now on!!!
Minmin is so capable, she will definitely be a very, very good police officer.
Because Yu Jiamin became a police officer, and her good friend Qin Zhaozhao was there, the Yu family had a very lavish dinner that night. They had stewed crucian carp and tofu soup, stir-fried ham and mushrooms, chili and eggs, cold black fungus salad and smashed cucumber, and the staple food was a pancake made from two kinds of flour.
Cheng Xiuying and Yu Songqing returned just in time for dinner. When Cheng Xiuying saw Qin Zhaozhao, she greeted her warmly, but she also looked at Qin Zhaozhao and Qin Shuo separately.
Qin Zhaozhao is a really honest and simple-minded child; she doesn't know how to judge people.
During the meal, the topic of Yu Jiamin becoming a police officer came up again. Cheng Xiuying happily exclaimed, "You're strong and meticulous; you're perfect for being a police officer!"
Yu Songqing was also happy for Yu Jiamin and congratulated her on becoming a police officer.
After dinner, Yu Jiamin took Qin Zhaozhao home.
Cheng Xiuying started talking about the steel rolling mill.
"The steel rolling mill is getting a new plant manager."
A heavy blow completely stunned everyone!
Grandma Yu was shocked: "Factory Director Li has gotten into trouble? No way, Factory Director Li isn't a fool. Has he been promoted?"
Cheng Xiuying: "Factory Director Li has been transferred to the Municipal Party Committee to serve as the Deputy Director of the Revolutionary Committee!!! The new factory director will take office tomorrow!" She was a little worried, "I don't know if the new factory director will be easy to get along with."
Factory Director Li has been promoted to the second-in-command of Zhou City!
This is like riding a rocket.
Yu Jiajia: "He must be an easy-going and good factory manager. The top leaders would never send a factory manager who is difficult to get along with."
Cheng Xiuying: "I'll be able to meet the new factory director tomorrow!"
Yu Jiajia encouraged and comforted her, saying, "Mom will be a high-ranking official someday!"
Cheng Xiuying smiled and said, "Four treasures, please."
The happiest people at this time were Director Li and his family. They moved their entire family to Zhou City and would live there from then on.
My wife and son's jobs were also transferred to the city, and all I need to do is get my youngest daughter transferred to a different school.
Cheng Xiuying was truly reluctant to part with him. Director Li was easy to get along with, and so was his whole family.
But there's nothing we can do about it; Director Li is just looking to move up in the ranks.
After Cheng Xiuying finished speaking, she went to Director Li's house to see if there was anything she could help with.
Sun Yuxia was packing her things, beaming with joy. She quickly offered some food to Cheng Xiuying, saying, "We're going to Zhou City soon, and I really don't want to leave here."
Cheng Xiuying: "I'll come back and visit again when I have time. When are you planning to move?"
Sun Yuxia: "The city said the sooner the better, so we plan to move tomorrow during the day."
Cheng Xiuying: "I'll come help tomorrow morning."
Sun Yuxia: "People from the city are coming to help. You should go to work early tomorrow. It's the new factory director's first day in office, and you, as the deputy factory director, can't be late."
Factory Director Li Jianhua couldn't hide his smile; his mouth practically stretched to his ears. This promotion came so suddenly and unexpectedly that he was caught off guard. He couldn't help but wonder, "This promotion is too fast. What have I, Li Jianhua, done to deserve this?"
He patted Cheng Xiuying's shoulder hard: "I'm only doing this because of you and Jiajia! If it weren't for you two, our steel rolling mill wouldn't be where it is today!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiuying smiled and said, "It is because Director Li is so capable that the higher-ups have the insight to recognize your talent and transfer you to the municipal party committee for important responsibilities."
Upon hearing this, Director Li burst into laughter, exclaiming with high spirits, "Alright! I'll be waiting for you at the Municipal Party Committee!"
Cheng Xiuying smiled and replied, "With the factory director's words, I feel much more at ease. If the factory encounters any difficulties in the future, please don't think we're causing trouble when I go to the municipal party committee."
Factory Director Li loved listening to Cheng Xiuying talk. Listen to her, how beautiful she is!
Cheng Xiuying helped Sun Yuxia pack her things, and other neighbors also came to help, all congratulating Director Li on his promotion!
Factory Director Li's smile never stopped.
They didn't leave the Li family until around 10 o'clock.
Cheng Xiuying's smile vanished as soon as she arrived home; her face had been stiff from smiling so much at the Li family's house.
Well, Director Li was right, we really benefited from Sibao's success.
Otherwise, the steel rolling mill wouldn't even be able to be recognized as an outstanding unit.
Her baby is so lucky; whoever gets close to her is blessed.
After arriving home, Grandma Yu said, "Yongping and Yongyi just came by, bringing a bamboo basket of mushrooms and vegetables, as well as a fat rabbit. I've invited them to come over for rabbit dinner tomorrow night."
You can tell whether a child is good or bad just by looking at them.
What a sensible and grateful child! Grandma Yu is also very generous.
Cheng Xiuying went into the kitchen to check on the rabbit. It was still alive, with its legs tied with hemp rope and placed in a bamboo basket. Cheng Xiuying weighed it in her hand; it was a plump rabbit, weighing three or four pounds.
“Yongyi is just like me, smart and sensible. Yongping is also clever and sensible.”
Grandma Yu wholeheartedly agreed: "That's right! Yonghao didn't come, did he? I just asked him, and Yongyi said he went to his mother-in-law's house today and will probably come to work in the county tomorrow morning."
Cheng Xiuying: "My family didn't know Cheng Yonghao had come to our house."
Grandma Yu: "I think so."
Yu Jiajia and Xia Jing went upstairs together and went home separately. She was playing jump rope downstairs and was covered in sweat. As soon as she got home, she took a shower and washed her hair. After she finished, she came out wearing a light pink nightgown and sat in front of Cheng Xiuying to listen to the two of them talking.
In truth, Cheng Xiuying couldn't be bothered to comment on Cheng Yonghao. She didn't care at all; he was just a nephew, a mere apprentice. Seeing that Sibao had finished his bath, she immediately took a towel and helped Sibao dry his hair.
"Sibao's hair is so beautiful, so black and thick, like silk. And there are so many little hairs growing out! It looks so cute."
Yu Jiajia also noticed that she had grown a lot of stray hairs. She was currently in an awkward phase, as the stray hairs couldn't be tied up but were still visible, making her look a bit messy, but fortunately, they weren't ugly.
She said, "It must be because I've been eating and sleeping well lately, and my hair has grown back."
Cheng Xiuying asked with a smile, "Why did Director Lu suddenly ask your third sister if she wanted to become a police officer?"
Yu Jiajia: "This all started with the home visit..."
Cheng Xiuying really felt there were a lot of bad people around. "This is too dangerous. If it weren't for your third sister's strength, something terrible would have happened. My dear, never go to unfamiliar places alone in the future."
Grandma Yu thought about it and realized it was true. Even home visits by teachers are dangerous. If you encounter a scumbag like this, the uncertainty is just too great.
Yu Jiamin also came out. "When teachers make home visits, they usually go in groups, so I'm not afraid of any accidents. Besides, there aren't many home visits during this period. I'm worried about Miaomiao; I feel it's such a waste that she's not going to school."
Grandma Yu exclaimed, "Thank goodness you got there!"
Yu Jiajia slapped her thigh, remembering her younger sister, "Third sister, I'm thinking, instead of telling Brother Chenzhou, why don't you investigate? You're about to become a police officer. Even if this younger sister isn't a special agent, she might have committed a crime before!"
Looking at Yu Jiajia, Yu Jiamin felt that Jiajia was born to be a police officer; she was very perceptive and always seemed to get things done.
However, given Jiajia's personality, she definitely wouldn't want to become a police officer.
"Okay, I'll check it out. Once I've found out, I'll treat you to dinner."
Yu Jiajia: "Okay!" She then shared A-mei's romantic escapades with everyone.
This attracted Yu Hongding and the others out! Yu Songqing felt even more that women were terrifying.
Grandma Yu was stunned. "This girl is quite a character!"
The next day, Grandma He and He Zhenzhen arrived at the Yu family home early in the morning.
Grandma He carried a piece of pork belly three fingers wide in her left hand and a large rooster in her right hand; this was quite a generous gift.
Cheng Xiuying: "You're here, why bring so much stuff! We can't keep it at home, we'll take it back for Zhenzhen to recover." She patted Zhenzhen's head: "This child has gained a little weight."
He Zhenzhen was wearing a beige shirt and black pants. Although she was still dark-skinned and thin, she looked clean, refreshing and energetic.
Grandma He put the things inside the house: "Xiuying, you must accept these things no matter what, they are just a small token of my appreciation. Otherwise, I really don't know how to thank Jiajia."
Yu Jiajia also came over and took He Zhenzhen's hand, asking her to sit down and talk.
He Zhenzhen handed over a wooden pistol, which was polished to a very smooth finish, with smooth lines, and was the perfect size for Yu Jiajia to hold in one hand.
Yu Jiajia played with it with great delight, exclaiming sincerely, "It's so beautiful and exquisite! Zhenzhen, you're so skillful! You're amazing!!!"
He Zhenzhen was very happy to be praised. She smiled and pointed to a slider on the side of the gun, saying, "Pull this back and it will be loaded."
Yu Jiajia reached out and pulled the slider, producing a soft "click" sound. She held up the pistol and gestured, feeling quite cool!
He Zhenzhen quickly said, "Be careful, there's a bullet in there, and it's quite powerful."
Yu Jiajia felt that He Zhenzhen's words were a bit exaggerated, but she was always a good friend who didn't want to spoil the mood, so she immediately took He Zhenzhen's arm and led her to the door, standing by the railing, "Can I hit the banyan tree in front of us, just the section in front of us?"
He Zhenzhen looked at it and said, "It should be able to be interrupted."
She said this in a very serious tone.
Yu Jiajia also seriously raised her pistol, pointed the muzzle at an old banyan tree not far away, and pulled the trigger.
A short, sharp whooshing sound suddenly rang out, followed by a powerful recoil sensation in my palm.
"Holy crap!" Yu Jiajia's eyes widened in shock as she saw the wooden bullet deeply embedded in the tree branch, which snapped off with a snap.
She abruptly withdrew her hand, looked at the wooden gun in disbelief, and then turned sharply to He Zhenzhen, who stood calmly beside her.
"That's amazing???"
This is definitely better than a slingshot!
He Zhenzhen was also shocked, thinking that Yu Jiajia's aim was really good. If she had been prepared like that, she would not have gone hungry. She said, "It's not that powerful. It's made of wood, without gunpowder. It relies on the force of the spring and the firing pin. Its power is limited and can only deal with pheasants and rabbits."
Isn't that amazing?
Yu Jiajia excitedly grabbed He Zhenzhen's hand: "Zhenzhen, you're amazing! You're a genius! If you were allowed to unleash your full potential, what would be the maximum power you could achieve?"
He Zhenzhen shook her head: "I've only ever worked with wood."
Yu Jiajia quickly calmed herself down. "Oh my god, I love this pistol so much, Zhenzhen, thank you!" Looking at the bullets on the banyan tree in front of her, she thought, "I should have known better than to shoot bullets into the tree! Now it's all wasted."
He Zhenzhen smiled and said, "I'll make one for you. This wooden gun will crack after a while, so I'll make another one for you."
Yu Jiajia reached out and hugged He Zhenzhen, "You're so talented, it's a waste of your talent to make wooden guns!"
She didn't know what level this was at, but she certainly couldn't, neither could her family, and none of the people she knew could! And this was done by a young girl who had never left the countryside; she hadn't studied anything, yet she was able to figure this out—it was truly, truly amazing.
If you give her a platform and teach her the basics, what kind of things can she create?
Yu Jiajia thought it must be extremely terrifying.
