Jinxiu Community (Catching Insects)
Chen Jin retrieved the loudspeaker she had bought from the logistics department. When she was holding it and walking towards her car, the big orange cat that was originally in the guard room jumped up and ran towards her, twisting and turning.
"Have you become a spirit?" Do you know there's something exciting to watch when you see the loudspeaker? !
Taking Daju with him, Chen Jin first called Shen Baichuan's office, and it was his assistant who answered the phone, saying that he was in a meeting and it was inconvenient for him to answer the phone.
After thinking for a while, Chen Jin said, "Then tell him that I brought a box of loudspeakers to Jinxiu Community and ask him to come over to watch the fun when he is free."
The assistant uttered a confused "ah", but the future boss lady on the other end of the phone had already hung up.
No, what does this sentence mean? He doesn't understand. Are you really going to report this to your boss?
I don't know if Shen Baichuan can join in the fun. Oh, forget him.
Chen Jin fastened his seat belt and said, "Let's go!"
It usually takes at least 40 minutes to drive from Changhe Town in Dongcheng District to Jinxiu Community, which is located at the junction of Xicheng District and Nancheng District.
Today even God gave her the green light all the way, and it took her less than 40 minutes to reach Jinxiu Community.
Miaomiao was standing in front of her own supermarket, looking at the entrance of the community, and she didn't even notice that she was coming. The little girl hired by the supermarket also poked her head to look out the door.
Chen Jin glanced at the quiet door, there was nothing there!
"Miaomiao! What's going on in the community now?"
Miaomiao looked back and saw Chen Jin holding a box, with Daju lying on top of the box, revealing a hint of red. She looked closely and found that this was the red trumpet from before.
“Third sister, you’re not here to help with the quarrel, are you?”
"It depends on the situation. Maybe I won't be needed. But I can sponsor the tools for free." Chen Jin urged her to tell him what was going on inside. She couldn't just rush in alone. She always felt unsafe without Aunt Zhou.
Miaomiao stared at her loudspeaker box and pursed her lips, saying, "There are about a dozen people from Aunt Guihua's family. Her parents took the lead and insisted that they had lent money to build houses for them before, so now they have to give them houses. Before, they said they wanted six houses, but now they say three is fine, which is just right for her parents and brother to each get one."
"Aunt Guihua's uncles and cousins came with them, and they look very fierce. Third sister, why don't you not go? What if a fight breaks out? The security guard in the community has already called the police."
Chen Jin felt tired, so he put the box on the ground, stretched his arms, and asked, "Have you seen Aunt Zhou and the others? Have the villagers come over?"
"I didn't notice. I was in the store this morning. I only found out about it when someone came to buy something just now."
When her cousin's wife, who worked at the braised food shop next door, saw her, she came out and asked her if she was there to do some business.
When Miaomiao told her about the situation in the community, her cousin's mother was shocked, "Is there such a thing?!"
My cousin's mother looked around and clapped her hands anxiously, "Why hasn't Lao Meng come back from the vegetable market yet?!"
Well, my cousin’s mother must also want to watch the fun.
Chen Jin called Aunt Zhou and asked where they were now, and said, "I brought my box of speakers with me."
Aunt Zhou groaned and said, "How could I forget this? No wonder I felt something was wrong when I left the house. It turns out I forgot to buy a speaker! Just using your voice won't work."
She didn't say where she was, but the voice of Mrs. Chen San came from the other end of the line, very nasty, "Third sister is here? Tell her to come quickly!"
There was a lot of noise on the phone, and it sounded very lively. Miaomiao, who had just advised Chen Jin not to go, leaned over and put her ear to the phone.
Aunt Zhou said, "Yes, yes, Third Sister, please come up quickly. Come into the community, it's Building No. 5, come quickly!"
After hanging up the phone, Miaomiao was even more shocked than her cousin's mother when she heard that someone was causing trouble in the neighborhood. "Mrs. Chen San and Aunt Zhou have such a good relationship?!"
"...In special times, we must unite to face the outside world." Chen Jin just realized that the tone that Grandma Chen San used when speaking to Aunt Zhou was quite rude. They even dared to raise their voices to Aunt Zhou? !
Tsk! It seems that after dealing with the people outside, there will still be some excitement in the village.
There is no need to think about it, it will definitely be Mrs. Chen who will be scolded.
Chen Jin waved his hand and called Miao Miao to watch the fun together. "There are not many people coming to buy things now, so just stay here and watch. Let's go."
Miaomiao thought so too and said she would move the loudspeaker. Chen Jin picked up the big orange on the box.
"Aunt, we're going over first."
My cousin's mother looked around anxiously and stamped her feet, "This old Meng! He went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and he hasn't come back yet!"
My family’s conditions were not very good before, and I lived on a street where there were a lot of things going on, so I had no mood to watch the fun. In the past two years, the two older ones opened a braised food shop, and Meng Chong went to work in the third sister's company. The whole family earns money together, and the family conditions have improved a lot. Now I have time to watch the fun.
Jinxiu Community is much more lively than their street, but it is rare to see the mother's family coming to take over the family property. This kind of scene where the villagers unite to deal with someone is extremely rare... No, why haven't you come back yet? !
Let’s talk about the other side.
Chen Jin ran very fast while holding the big orange dog. This was also thanks to the fact that he had warmed up in advance by watching Zhang Leye's excitement a few days ago.
but! Are there too many people watching the fun in the neighborhood? It felt like there were at least two buildings of people.
He squeezed to the front with Miaomiao amid the dissatisfaction of the onlookers. Just as he made eye contact with Aunt Zhou and the others, a group of people rushed over and divided up the box of loudspeakers that Miaomiao had brought next to Chen Jin.
Chen Jin took a look and found that the box was empty?
No, I bought this box of speakers. Why don’t you leave any for me? !
Moreover, her loudspeaker had a label with her name on it, because the speaker still contained a series of recordings of her swearing at the company gate last time.
"What do you mean by duty? If that's the case, I should tell your parents to move your things to your house. That's also my duty, right? You look like a monkey, but you're the only one who's calculating. You're such a shameless person!"
"That's right! Don't miss it if you pass by. This shameless family wants to come to my daughter and son-in-law's house to eat the whole family and occupy their house. It's fine for a married daughter to take care of her parents in their old age, but why should she also take care of her brother?"
Chen Jin glanced at the aunt who was talking, and it was obvious from the look of her that she would not argue.
Look, the Ma family immediately said, "Whose family isn't like this? If you have a promising future, you should help your brothers and sisters. Everyone, please judge for me, what have we done wrong? We lent them money to build the house, otherwise how could they get so much money and the house after the demolition? Don't you think we should get a share?!"
There were people in the crowd who agreed and said that one should give some to the brothers and sisters.
Chen Jin went to the Qiaodong Village trumpet group and found that except for those who originally lived in Jinxiu Community, those who lived in Xiuli Community and Meiguiyuan Community had almost all arrived.
Why are they all aunties and grandmas? Those old men in the village are really...Except Aunt Guihua’s husband Chen Siyan.
Oh, there is also a civilized uncle.
Chen Jin only had a heavy cat in his hand. He tugged at Aunt Zhou's sleeve and asked, "How much money did Aunt Guihua and Uncle Four Eyes borrow? Haven't you paid it back yet?"
If they borrow too much, then they are really unreasonable. Although it's not wrong to argue, it does make me feel a little guilty when I do so.
Aunt Zhou curled her lips in disdain, "It's just ten dollars, and I borrowed it in 1971. I borrowed ten dollars and paid back twenty. They can't make a killing!"
Oh, that makes sense.
Seeing that they were still arguing about the money, Ma Guihua explained a few words, then felt it was too noisy, so she snatched the loudspeaker from the person next to her.
Now, everyone can hear it.
"Bah! What do you mean by borrowing money?! I only borrowed ten dollars, and we paid back twenty in less than half a year. We have already paid it back! Don't even think of using this little thing to complain to me! When I was married off in exchange for the bride price, I said that a married daughter is like spilled water! Whether I live a good or bad life is my business, you guys just treat me like you don't have a daughter..."
"Who are your biological parents? We haven't been in touch for more than 10 or 20 years. I have nothing to do with you guys anymore! I heard that my family is doing well, so you want to get in? Dream on!"
An old woman from the Ma family immediately sat on the ground and cried, "Everyone, come and see this heartless ungrateful bastard. We raised her to this age..."
Aunt Zhou couldn't stand it anymore, so she raised her loudspeaker and started cursing.
"You old witch, you only do things that will destroy your family lineage! You want to steal things from your daughter and son-in-law who you haven't had any contact with for decades? If you have the guts, go to your two daughters-in-law's homes and rob them!"
"And you old fools, what are you talking about descendants? What is the relationship between the descendants of your Ma family and our Chen family? You are a bunch of devils, you want to rob and you find a shabby excuse! You all should go to the police station! You all look like devils with sharp mouths and monkey cheeks, and you think you are right to rob things?"
"Fuck you, you bastard! You said it's okay for me to steal things, but if you call me a devil, I'll beat you to death...Ahhh! You hit me?"
A thin and small man rushed up, looking quite fierce. Aunt Zhou pushed Chen Jin aside, swung her thick palm half a circle as if she had internal force and swept it over with a gust of wind. There was a loud bang, and the scene fell silent.
The big orange in Chen Jin's arms trembled.
Then there was another deafening horn sound, "You little devil, you want to hit me? I'll beat you to death! Everyone heard it! He just admitted that he came to rob money!"
Chen Jin gritted his teeth and took a deep breath. Really, saying that someone looked like a Japanese devil was really a dirty insult!
Look, those guys on the opposite side are so angry that they are about to smoke.
"You are a bunch of devils! Foreign powers! Bandits! Feudal dogs!"
Soon, Aunt Chen Wu followed suit.
Well, Aunt Chen Wu knows more.
"Ahhh, I'm going to beat them to death! These bitches! Damn them!"
"You old bastards! Old devils! Little devils! You still say you are not devils? You are! Look at your ugly faces, with pointed mouths and monkey cheeks. One look at you will ruin my appetite for three days! Go and burn incense to your ancestors, and they will think that their homes have been occupied by devils, and they will jump out from below to kill you bastards!"
"That's right! A bunch of devils who want to rob us!"
"Ahhh, what else can you do besides ahhh? You bark like a dog all day long!"
"What's the point of calling him a dog? Even a dog's bark sounds better than his. Just listening to this sound shows kidney deficiency!"
"She must be weak when she looks like that! No wonder she wants to steal other people's things. People with kidney deficiency can't do anything. They can't have children or make money. They just want to eat while lying down!"
"And those few who think they are awesome just by wearing short sleeves and showing their arms? You stupid idiots! Are you pretending to be awesome if your brains are frozen!"
"No, you have to bring up the dog, right? I have a dog at home, and my dog doesn't act like that!"
"Don't make any noise, deal with them first."
There was no room for the other side to reply. On their side, there were eight people holding loudspeakers, and each of them spoke one sentence at a time. The words were spoken quickly and loudly, and after that, there was the buzzing sound of the loudspeakers.
Several people from the opposite side wanted to rush over, but the security guard stood in the middle to stop them. Aunt Zhou took out a feather duster and was ready for battle.
Chen Jin was speechless. She had never seen such a long feather duster. It must be more than one meter long, and there was some spider silk on the front of the duster.
Uncle Wenming quietly came out from the side, holding a clothes rail in his hand.
The old woman was about to roll on the ground again. She sat on the ground and shouted, her hair was disheveled...she looked so pitiful.
As a result, within half a minute, the old branch secretary's wife Zhao Dahua and Chen Sanpo grabbed their hair and sat next to the old woman, facing her on the left and right.
Zhao Dahua held a loudspeaker and shouted: "You old hag! You are even more vicious than me! Other old hags would at most bully their daughters-in-law, but you even bully your own daughter! You dead plague! God should take you away, chop off your hands and feet, and pull out your tongue..."
The big speaker was pointed at the old woman's ears, making her head buzz.
Chen Jin couldn't help but frown. "No, it's okay to insult someone, but why did you involve yourself in this?"
Aunt Ke Xin suddenly laughed from the right and said, "She has some self-awareness. She is still the same old witch."
"Aunt Ke Xin, why are you also..." Can this be summoned?
Aunt Ke Xin said, "Zhou Xiangxiang asked me to come. She said she was afraid of a fight and Chen Wenming would be useless."
Chen Jin: "...I think Aunt Zhou is enough."
In the quarrel just now, Aunt Zhou was the main person in charge, and everyone else just followed suit, making sure that the words didn't fall to the ground and the momentum wasn't suppressed.
Chen Jin looked again and saw Zhao Dahua saying she was tired. Chen Sanpo followed in tacit understanding. Perhaps she was too excited and pressed the wrong button. Chen Jin's voice came out from the loudspeaker:
"A bunch of psychos! Crazy man! Crazy woman! Swindler! Money-grubbing swindler! They'll cheat people, steal their money, steal their jobs, and kill their whole family! Lulululu!"
Grandma Chen San was stunned, and simply sat there staring at the old woman from the Ma family, and poured sound into the old woman's ears with the loudspeaker.
To be honest, Chen Jin thought this scene was quite funny. Such a large group of people were just watching three old ladies quarreling on the ground.
No, this is a two-for-one quarrel, and the two will definitely be crushed. The old woman from the Ma family wanted to stand up, but Zhao Dahahua and Chen Sanpo each held one of her arms.
Chen Jin... Chen Jin really couldn't help laughing out loud. The whole place was filled with her series of cursing voices. Three old ladies were in the middle, holding hands and dancing the yangge.
"This is too much! You are bullying my mother! You are a bunch of bitches!"
The "Mahjongs" in Qiaodong Village showed him what a real Mahjong was.
The whole place was filled with "devils", "kidney deficiency", "sharp-nosed and monkey-cheeked" people...only the trumpet in Chen Sanpo's hand never stopped ringing.
"You are sick! You are sick! If you have the guts, turn off the speaker! Come out and fight!"
"A bunch of psychos! Crazy man! Crazy woman! Swindler! Money-grubbing swindler! They'll cheat people, steal their money, steal their jobs, and kill their whole family! Lulululu!"
Turn off the speaker? Why turn off the speaker? !
Even though they were just shouting at each other over and over again, isn't that what arguments are all about? No matter how you quarrel, as long as you feel satisfied and others are mad as hell, that's enough.
Chen Jin chuckled. Who would want to discuss whether to lend money or not now?
Aunt Ke Xin next to her was rubbing her hands together and trying to roll up her sleeves...but failed. It’s cold today, so I’m wearing too many clothes.
After a pause, he rushed over and snatched the loudspeaker from Ma Guihua's hand, despising her for being useless and unable to even argue.
It's really amazing. Aunt Zhou and Aunt Ke Xin stood in the front, and the other aunts stood one step behind and on the side. In the middle were Zhao Dahua and Chen Sanpo, two professionals who were good at throwing tantrums...
She should just stand back and study more as she has such a fragile horn. Just as I thought this, her recording echoed again in the whistling cold wind.
With Aunt Zhou and Aunt Ke Xin working together, the other side argued until their throats were dry but still couldn't gain the slightest advantage.
Some people began to back out and thought about giving up. The house had been occupied and they had no share in it. They were being bullied and scolded for a few hundred dollars... Even if they were given a thousand dollars, the anger they were holding back would make them sick.
Chen Jin was gnashing his teeth in the back: The more he looked at Aunt Zhou and Aunt Ke Xin, the more he felt that they looked tall and mighty.
There is no one in the top two of Qiaodong Village! No one can replace it!
The police finally arrived, and were confused by the scene and didn't know what to say.
Didn’t they say someone came to rob your house?
"Okay, can you guys turn off the speakers first?"
"Why should we turn off the loudspeakers first? What's wrong with a few words from us when these devils came to rob us? If we need to turn them off, we should put them in the police station!"
The public security officer frowned and looked at the group of people opposite him, "Are you devils?"
Chen Jin really couldn't hold back his laughter.
There are some lies that, as you keep telling lies, not only do you believe them yourself, but you also make others believe them.
The village chief and his entourage finally arrived, a large group of people.
Chen Jin sighed, "Third Uncle, why are you so slow?"
The third uncle raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face and said, "I don't know. We went out fishing today. We rushed back when we heard the news."
Chen Jin took a look and wondered why everyone was holding a fishing rod in their hands.
My uncle also said to her, "Don't come too close next time. If someone comes to attack you, they will knock you down with one punch."
"I didn't go up to quarrel, why did you hit me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone else stopped, leaving only her recording, which stood out.
Chen Jin shrank his neck, pretending not to see the "You said you didn't go up" expression on his third uncle's face.
She did not take the initiative to participate, but in this battle between the Qiaodong Village Trumpet Band and other groups, she provided the loudspeakers and her universal recording equipment.
No matter what the situation, she can always use her trumpet later.
They finally turned off the loudspeakers after being persuaded by the village chief. When the other side saw that they had turned off the loudspeakers, they thought that their chance had come and continued to make noise.
As a result, Uncle Chen poured a bucket of water over them, soaking them all, and little fish were jumping on the ground.
"Can you be quiet now? Listen to what our village chief has to say!"
