After eating and drinking, Master Liu was reluctant to let Chen Jun go. He took out a chessboard from the cabinet and pulled Chen Jun to play a few games.
Chen Jun looked at Mr. Liu in surprise. He didn't expect that he was also a Go enthusiast.
In the first game, Mr. Liu won easily, but in the second game, Mr. Liu started to scratch his head.
Weird!
This kid is weird!
Grandpa Liu usually plays chess with people of the same age. Everyone plays very seriously and likes to use the Tai Chi technique of moving a thousand pounds with a little effort.
But Chen Jun was different. He played chess in an aggressive manner and didn't know how to take care of the elderly at all. His moves were bold and powerful.
If they were playing chess, with Chen Jun's playing style, Master Liu would be even more unbearable.
"Tsk, I didn't expect you to be so powerful!"
"Let's play another game. If you can still beat me, I'll give you a treasure!"
It is obvious that Master Liu is happy today.
Around eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Jun and Chen Xueru said goodbye and left. There was a cloth bag hanging on the handlebars, and inside was a set of exquisite tea bowls.
Although it is not very old, the workmanship is very exquisite, and it is very classy to drink tea with.
"Chen Jun, come to me when you have nothing to do in the future. Let's play chess, go fishing, and I will introduce you to some interesting old friends." Grandpa Liu reluctantly sent Chen Jun to the door.
"Okay, let's go fishing together when we have time. I haven't eaten giant turtle for a long time." Chen Jun smiled.
......
The next day, early morning.
Just as Chen Jun was pushing his bicycle out, he heard a noisy sound coming from the middle courtyard, and could vaguely hear Xu Damao howling.
Um?
So early in the morning, Xu Damao started fighting with the Jia family again?
Thinking of this, Chen Jun couldn't help but quicken his pace.
When he arrived at the middle courtyard, Chen Jun found that there were about twenty people gathered in the courtyard. They formed a semicircle at the door of the Jia family and watched the excitement.
"What's going on?" Chen Jun patted Sha Zhu's shoulder and asked curiously.
"The police are here. They're asking Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu to send something to Jia Zhangshi. The temperature has dropped in recent days, so I guess Jia Zhangshi doesn't have enough clothes to wear."
After a pause, Sha Zhu continued, "I just heard Xu Damao yelling that Jia Zhang deserved to be beaten and that even death would be justified. Jia Zhang might have been beaten in there, but she deserved it anyway. Who told her to steal the wheel from Xu Damao's car?"
"Silly Zhu, just say less." Liu Haizhong, who was standing beside him, elbowed him.
Sha Zhu laughed out loud: "What's going on, Second Master? Why are you still not happy with Jia Zhang?"
"How shameful! Jia Zhang has brought shame to our entire courtyard. She came to the police station so early in the morning. If people from other courtyards see us, who knows what they will do to us!" Liu Haizhong was annoyed not because Jia Zhang was beaten, but because Jia Zhang made him lose face.
As the manager of the courtyard, he regards the courtyard's reputation as his own.
"Well, just say it." Sha Zhu disagreed.
Just as a few people were whispering and watching the fun, Qin Huairu walked out of the house carrying a bundle.
The residents automatically made way for them and watched Qin Huairu and the police leave the yard.
"Everyone, go away. There's nothing to see." Liu Haizhong waved to the crowd who came to the villa to watch the fun.
Qin Huairu carried her bag and left the city, arriving at the place where Jia Zhang was being reformed through labor.
It must be said that this place is indeed remote, and Qin Huairu's calves were cramping from walking so much.
"You stay here now. I'll go get Jia Zhang."
"good!"
Qin Huairu sat on the chair somewhat uneasily, looking at the steel fence in front of her, feeling a little scared.
She actually didn't want to come, nor did she want to see Jia Zhangshi, but she couldn't find anyone to help her in the courtyard, and Jia Dongxu couldn't be relied on, so she had to come and deliver things to Jia Zhangshi herself.
"Oh, please, let me go home. I promise I won't steal anything again."
"If it really doesn't work, at least change my place. Those lunatics beat me every day. They beat me during the day and then at night. I can't sleep well at night."
A few minutes later, Qin Huairu heard Jia Zhang's voice.
Then with a creak, the iron gate inside the steel fence was pushed open, and Jia Zhang with messy hair walked in.
The moment she saw Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang rushed over excitedly and stretched her arm towards Qin Huairu through the steel fence.
"Qin Huairu, take me home quickly. This is not a place for people to stay."
"They...they really want to beat me to death!"
Because of the last report, Jia Zhang had several mortal enemies here. When Jia Zhang entered the palace for the second time, she was like a sheep among wolves.
Qin Huairu was shocked by Jia Zhang's appearance. Her left face was swollen to an extreme extent, and there was a big dark circle under her right eye. Her clothes were torn and tattered, and some shoe prints could be vaguely seen.
This...how many people beat him up? It's too miserable!
"Mom, how could I take you home? If you hadn't stolen Xu Damao's wheel, how could you have been sent to labor camp?"
"Three months, you need to endure these three months, and then we can go home." Qin Huairu patted the bundle beside her and said, "There are thick clothes for you in here. I brought them all for you."
"I don't want clothes, I want to go home! Go home!"
Jia Zhang's attitude suddenly became irritable. She pointed at Qin Huairu and cursed, "You heartless thing, why did you make me stay here for three months? I will be beaten to death!"
"Tell me, did you deliberately not save me? When I was at the police station, I heard someone say that stealing a car wheel isn't a serious offense. If you can get a letter of apology, you only need to be detained for a few days, not sent to a labor camp."
"Old Jia, come and take a look, there's an ungrateful person in our family."
As she spoke, Jia Zhang cried out again and burst into tears.
Seeing this, Qin Huairu could only sigh helplessly.
"Mom, it's not that we don't want to save you, it's that Xu Damao is such a jerk. He's asking for two hundred yuan to write a letter of apology for us."
"We have two hundred yuan at home!" Jia Zhang stopped howling and excitedly grabbed the steel fence and shook it.
"But all our family's money is with you, and Dongxu and I don't know where we put it." Qin Huairu didn't dare to tell Jia Zhang the truth, so she could only make up a lie.
"If you had handed the money over to me earlier, I would have asked Xu Damao to write a letter of apology."
"The money is under the bed. Get out of here now. Go back to Xu Damao and write a letter of apology. Maybe he can get me out of here."
Jia Zhang has been living a miserable life these days and no longer cares about money. As long as she can get out of here, she is willing to spend any amount of money.
"Okay, I'll go now!"
Qin Huairu continued speaking according to what Jia Zhang said, then stood up and put the bag in front of her. Without even saying goodbye, she left in a hurry.
