Chapter 41: Breaking up the couple



It's a shame to say that when Song Huaiwen left, Song Huaixi had to go to a meeting. By the time he received the message from his brother, it was already several days later.

In the Revolutionary Committee, after going through a set of review procedures, some people could not stand the high pressure and were basically dismissed.

I just hope that the current situation is still under control. If it goes on any longer, it’s hard to say what will happen. So he came over immediately after receiving the news, wanting to understand the situation first before making further plans.

If there really is something wrong with the Shen family, Song Huaixi can only break up the couple and pluck the flower from Song Huaiwen's iron tree.

Of course, he only thought about these in his mind and did not show them on his face.

When Shen Nanru saw that Song Huaiwen knew that he should not get involved in the Shen family's affairs, but still took the initiative to ask someone to come and help, his favor for him increased, as if he had forgotten how he disliked Shen Nanqing when he found out about his girlfriend. He felt that his cabbage was being taken advantage of by a pig, and he even wanted to show off his power to the girl when they met!

Shen Nanru no longer concealed anything and immediately told everything he knew.

"According to the Revolutionary Committee, my mother is the daughter of the Ye family. The Ye family was a capitalist in the early days of the revolution. They only accumulated such a huge family business by exploiting the Ye family."

"The machinery factory was once an asset of the Ye family. They believed that my grandfather became the factory director for personal gain due to his in-law relationship, and my father inherited the position of factory director through unfair competition."

"Later, the head of the Ye family sold the machinery factory and took a large amount of wealth to the country, causing the country to suffer huge losses. He is suspected of treason."

"My mother is a descendant of the Ye family, so naturally..." He choked up a little when he said this. The crime of treason is far more serious than that of being a capitalist. He took a deep breath and continued, "My father has been helping to hide my mother's identity. He was listed as an accomplice and was also detained for investigation."

Upon hearing this, Song Huaixi frowned and fell into deep thought, his hand unconsciously stroking the watch on his wrist. People who are familiar with him know that once Song Huaixi makes this gesture, it means that he is thinking carefully and weighing the pros and cons.

"Nonsense." Master Zou, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said indignantly, "They are talking nonsense. The Ye family has never exploited us, let alone treason."

Song Huaixi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Master, do you know anything?"

Shen Nanru and others also looked at Grandpa Zou. They heard that Grandpa Zou entered the machinery factory when he was a teenager and has been working in the machinery factory for more than 50 years. Maybe he really knows something.

Being stared at by so many people, Mr. Zou was a little nervous, but thinking of the Shen family couple who were still suffering, he quickly said, "I entered the machinery factory when I was 18 years old. I was lucky enough to meet the boss once. He was a very good person, friendly and polite, and never deducted or delayed the salary of others."

"If the Ye family really wants to exploit us, we are not stupid. There were so many factories back then, why did so many people try their best to get into the machinery factories? Isn't it because the treatment was better than others?"

"It's really sad to say that Boss Ye was such a good person, but later the Ye family suddenly lost their lives, and the Ye couple also died on the spot. The family property was inherited by the Ye family alone."

"Master Ye..." Master Zou realized that this address was inappropriate, and quickly changed his words, saying, "After Ye Wenyan took over the factory, he rarely showed up. It was not until a few days before the factory changed its owner that he suddenly came to the family compound and stayed at the Shen family for a long time. He left quietly after dark."

As he spoke, Master Zou showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and hesitated for a moment. "At that time, Mrs. Shen personally sent people to the door, and I didn't deliberately eavesdrop. I was just curious. I vaguely heard Ye Wenyan say that his identity might be exposed and his life was in danger. He was going to seek asylum in the country and hand over his property to the country. He asked Mrs. Shen if she wanted to go with him."

A single man and a single woman were walking together late at night. At first, Master Zou really thought about the bad side of things, but when he thought about Ye Qilan's usual behavior, he gave up the bad idea.

Now that I think about it, I should be thankful that they were actually siblings. Fortunately, I chose to remain silent at the time, otherwise I would have been so embarrassed.

"Are you sure you heard that the property should be handed over to the state?" Song Huaixi instantly grasped the key words and confirmed again.

Mr. Zou said firmly, "Don't look at my age, my memory is still pretty good."

After saying that, he set his sights on Shen Nansu, as if he was lost in memories. After a while, he said, "Who did I say Xiao Su looked like? It turns out he looks like Ye Wenyan. They say that nephews look like their uncles, and it's true."

Although Ye Qilan and Ye Wenyan are siblings, they do not look alike. Perhaps one resembles her father and the other looks like her mother, so no one has ever doubted Ye Qilan's identity over the years.

After hearing what Master Zou said, the hearts of the Shen family finally settled down a little.

Song Huaixi asked again: "Do you remember the time when Ye Wenyan came to the family compound?"

"I remember." Master Zou nodded. The factory where he worked made him a living. He would never forget such a thing as the change of ownership. "It was mid-March of the ninth year."

After hearing this, Song Huaixi had a rough idea of ​​what was going on with the Ye family, and now all he needed to do was find evidence.

He turned and looked at the Shen brothers. "If it is true as Master Zou said, the Ye family may be a patriotic businessman. No matter whether it is funding or donation, there will be acceptance documents. Did your mother leave anything behind?"

"No." Shen Nanru shook his head. When he had no clue, he thought that maybe he could find something from home. He didn't know whether his mother had hidden it very well or didn't keep anything at all. At least, except for the valuable things, he couldn't find any words.

Song Huaixi pondered for a moment and quickly made a decision, "Well, let's do this on two fronts. You guys can see if you can find the old employee of the machinery factory and persuade him to clarify the matter for the Ye family. I'll go to the Revolutionary Committee to meet with your mother and see if she can provide any useful clues."

"I know the old man well. I can lead the way for Xiaoru." Grandpa Zou hurriedly recommended himself.

Song Huaixi nodded. He actually didn't tell the truth. Not to mention whether those people were willing to come forward to get involved in this mess, even if they were willing to come forward to clarify it would have no effect.

His main purpose was to find something for the Shen brothers to do, which would make them feel better than just waiting.

The most important thing is to get those supporting documents.

After the tasks were assigned, the troops were divided into two groups and each took action separately.

Song Huaixi was a member of the Economic Committee. In principle, he had no right to interfere in the affairs of the Revolutionary Committee. However, he had the means and connections, and after going through complicated procedures, he finally met Ye Qilan.

He could see that this was a well-educated woman.

Even in such a cage, she always remained calm and composed, keeping herself clean and tidy, with a gentle and calm temperament.

At this moment, Song Huaixi's expectations for the brother and sister-in-law he had met before were completely maxed out.

"You are Song Huaiwen's brother!" Ye Qilan looked at the man in front of her with bright and deep eyes.

Song Huaixi was not surprised to see his identity revealed. He nodded and said, "I came here to ask if you have any proof of the Ye family's relationship with our party."

Ye Qilan raised her eyebrows slightly, slightly surprised, and then shook her head: "No."
