Unity
Uncle Chen was very good at splashing water. He accurately splashed only those people from the Ma family who came to cause trouble, while the onlookers who were nearby were not harmed.
Those lively fish were bouncing around and landing on other people's feet.
Fortunately, Chen Jin jumped away quickly, otherwise the small fish would have bounced onto her shoes.
The big orange cat looked ready to make a move, but Chen Jin held it tightly and warned it, "If you dare to eat small fish outside and get yourself smelly, you will have to go home today."
My third uncle looked at her helplessly, as if to say: You are such a grown-up, why are you arguing with a one-year-old kitten?
But soon, Daju's attention was drawn away.
Because of Uncle Chen Wu's shocking splash, the group of people from the Ma family got wet. Among them, the two who stood in the front and shouted the loudest were the most serious. They were the brothers of Ma Gui's family.
The older one even took a small fish that had stopped jumping from his head.
This really stirred up a hornet's nest, because before it could be said that they were just quarreling, but now they are fighting, and in front of the police, so they are somewhat in the wrong.
But whether they were right or not was just a matter of fact. As soon as the other side cursed, the loudspeakers on their side started buzzing, and then they cursed back with more than ten times the power.
The police here were obviously more fierce and majestic. They shouted "Quiet down" and the whole place fell silent again.
The last time everything was quiet was when Uncle Chen Wu splashed water on him.
When the police said they would take people from both sides to the nearby police station, Chen Wenhao rushed over, pulled the police officer who was able to speak aside, and said something to him, but in the end they changed the topic to questioning them here.
"Tell me, where are you from? What are you doing here?"
The police officer stood in the middle with his hands on his hips, "Okay, if you don't want to say it, then you can say it over here. Turn off the loudspeaker! What's the point of making so much noise? It's disturbing the neighbors!"
"You guys, what's going on? Why did you quarrel with them? Explain the whole process to me."
Ma Guihua wiped her tears with the back of her hand, her eyes still red, and stared at the so-called relatives opposite her with disgust.
The whole story was explained clearly.
The crowd who came to watch the fun in the evening finally figured it out. It turned out that this aunt got married at the age of seventeen. Her family asked for a high dowry and said they would not contact her in the future. In 1971, the couple wanted to borrow money to build a house. They borrowed ten yuan from her mother’s family and soon paid back twenty yuan. We didn't contact each other again after that.
It was because the Ma family lived in a village below the northern city area, and they had not been in contact for many years, so they were not well-informed and did not know that Qiaodong Village, where Ma Guihua's husband's family lived, was demolished more than two years ago.
A few days ago, Ma Guihua's sister-in-law heard the news while working in the city. The Ma family had been asking around for several days and only came today to cause trouble.
"How shameless! We haven't been in touch for decades. How can there be such parents and brothers?"
"I thought he borrowed thousands or tens of thousands of dollars. He just borrowed ten dollars and paid it back. It's an old story from more than 20 years ago. Why are you still talking about this? Ugh! Shame on you!"
"So, even if you win the lottery and become rich after the demolition, you can't tell anyone. Even your own parents want to tear you apart. They are really not human!"
"Is it possible not to talk about this? Look at this family, they didn't say anything. People still found out from somewhere else. Her two brothers are so shameless, they robbed someone's house and felt justified..."
Half of the residents in Jinxiu Community are being relocated. In addition to those from Qiaodong Village, there are also those from Mutang Village.
Who wouldn’t be afraid of encountering such relatives? Of course you have to speak up at this time. Otherwise, if something happens to your family one day, will others help you or just stand by and watch you make a fool of yourself?
But there are also those who like to be generous to others, saying: "After all, they are your biological parents and brothers, and we are all family. If you are living a good life, you should also help your brothers."
Aunt Ke Xin glanced over and said, "Who are you from? Everyone, help me find out which family this kind-hearted person belongs to. I'll write it down and I'll go talk to her relatives some other day. She's wearing gold and silver. I want to see if your relatives want to lend a hand too."
"I know! She lives in 305, Building 9! Her relative came to borrow money last time! She also said that she was so poor. I also know where her relative lives!"
The aunt's face changed, and she immediately laughed and changed her words, "I'm talking about the situation where my parents and brothers are all human beings. If they are not human beings, then of course we can't give it to them! They are just like those relatives in our family. They really can't take advantage of us enough. They are so shameless!"
Aunt Zhou immediately raised her arms and shouted, "That's right, how shameless! They are just like the devils. When they see someone's good things, they want to rob them. Do they think this is the old society? They can rob them just because they want to? Get them out!"
"Yes! Drive them out of our community!" The aunts in Qiaodong Village were very sensible. Once Aunt Zhou took the lead, everyone followed immediately.
Many people in the community also shouted: "Get out!"
The police had to stop everyone from arguing again and let the two sides confront each other about the situation today.
After all, so many people gathering here are already disturbing others. If we don't properly manage it, I'm afraid there will be more gang fights in the future.
The old woman of the Ma family was about to throw a tantrum again, but the police gave her a sharp look and her words got stuck in her throat.
Aunt Zhou pushed Ma Guihua and noticed that he was still wiping tears. She cursed in a low voice, "What a useless thing!"
Ma Guihua was about to speak, but Aunt Ke Xin blocked her mouth with a loud speaker, "Shut up and learn from Zhou Xiangxiang!"
"You old fool, you want to throw a tantrum again, you are such a plague! I hope the thunder god will strike you to death tonight! Don't act like that at home! If you have something to say, just say it! You don't want to talk, right? Then let me ask you, are you renting a house here or buying one? Why are you coming to our community?"
"My sister has a house here!"
"What does it have to do with you? You bastard! Is your sister's house in your name?"
"...No, but she loaned us money before."
"Oh my God! You owe me ten dollars, and you're still talking about it now? The country should really take you to the border and use you as a wall! Look at your face, even a cannon can't blow it open!"
"She said ten dollars, so ten dollars? Later we borrowed tens of thousands of dollars to build a house for them!"
"Oh my, how many tens of thousands of dollars can you still borrow? What kind of money did you borrow? The gold ingots that you burned for me? You don't even have an IOU, but you still dare to brag about borrowing tens of thousands. If your family has even ten thousand, I'd consider you awesome!"
"You can tell at a glance that he's a lazy, sneaky guy with a few thief wives. Why do you still want to borrow tens of thousands? Wouldn't it be better if you just asked for hundreds of thousands?"
"Who do you think you are? Let Ma Guihua speak out!"
"I am your ancestor! Son of a bitch! Japs, Japs, Japs, Japs!"
"You still call me a devil?!"
"Devils, devils, devils!"
The police also figured out that these devils were not those devils. But...
This scene... Even though they are well-informed, they really want to laugh when they meet an old lady who can curse like this.
The public security officer had to consider his own image and couldn't laugh, but Chen Jin couldn't help it.
He turned around and laughed so hard that his shoulders shook.
Oh my god, why is this so funny? !
"That's enough, no more talking!" The police officer stood in the middle and raised his hands to stop them. He first criticized Qiaodong Village:
"You guys should restrain yourself a little! Do you think it's nice to curse like that? Well, stop it! What's wrong with you, the eldest sister? Are you the leader of them?"
The police scanned the people holding large red loudspeakers, and it was clear who was in the same group as the leading lady... No, there was also someone holding a cat?
Oh, this young comrade didn’t say anything, he must have just come to join in the fun. But you don’t have to get so close to join in the fun! If she didn't have a cat in her arms, people would think she was one of these aunties and sisters.
Aunt Zhou said disdainfully, "What do you mean by 'they are the leaders'? That's really rude, it makes me feel like I'm part of a pyramid scheme. We are from the same village, so of course we can't just watch our own people get bullied!"
"Okay, okay, stop talking! Say less! This has nothing to do with you!"
Aunt Zhou was angry. "How can this have nothing to do with me? Just because your village is not united, you think other villages are like this? Our village is still united with outsiders!"
"......" The police ignored her and turned to Uncle Chen Wu, criticizing him: "Your behavior just now was too bad! It's not right to splash water in such a cold weather! Besides, look at the ground, there are so many fish!"
There is one next to the police officer's feet. Now it can't jump anymore. It's sticking up and it may fall off.
Uncle Chen Wu stiffened his neck and said, "What happened? I didn't mean to do that. I don't know who tripped me just now, and the bucket in my hand flew out! I didn't even say anything. I threw the bucket of fish at them because I was showing respect for them. We caught this for the whole morning! Hey! That old lady, what are you doing? Put down our fish!"
Chen Jin couldn't help laughing again, help! Uncle Chen, do you think others are fools? Judging from the way you rushed over just now, who would dare to believe that you were tripped by someone? !
It doesn’t matter whether others believe it or not, but Uncle Chen insisted: Someone tripped him, so he splashed water!
The police officer took a deep breath and asked through gritted teeth, "You just said that your village chief told you, who is your village chief?"
Chen Jin turned his head and thought, hey, I just saw the village chief, but now he is gone.
She guessed that the village chief had hidden himself away.
With the village chief here, how can the people in their village continue to quarrel? What if the police ask the village chief to take charge of the people? I don't want to get involved, but the police have spoken and my son is a police officer, that would be bad, so I might as well just hide away.
"The village chief is not here? Where are the other village officials?"
"Look, our village's old party secretary." Chen Wenzhen's arm injury hasn't healed yet, but he also came to join in the fun.
The old branch secretary glared at him and thought: What an idiot!
Chen Jin laughed, it is really better for me to die than for my friends to die.
But the old Party Secretary waved his hand and said, "The land in our village has been razed to the ground. There is no village anymore, and I am no longer the Party Secretary. Don't come to me if you have any problems. We have village cadres, but the village chief is the head of the clan. Everyone listens to him. My words are useless."
Chen Jin sighed and said to his third uncle: “Shen Baichuan is in a meeting at the company, he has no luck today.”
The third uncle said with a mixture of amusement and anger: "Ren Baichuan is only thinking about serious matters!"
As soon as the voice fell, someone squeezed up from behind, and it was Shen Baichuan’s voice: “I rushed here after the meeting, what’s the situation now?”
Chen Jin looked at his third uncle proudly: Look at what he is doing.
Third uncle: "......"
Finally someone helped her hold the big orange dog, her hands were sore. Although her third uncle offered to help her hold the baby, she was still worried about him. With the way he loved his little cub, she was afraid that he would secretly let Daju go and eat the fish.
Chen Jin looked at it and told Shen Baichuan, and explained it clearly in a few words. "I'll tell you the details later, just watch the fun first. I finally criticized them."
"Look, the police have said that their behavior is no different from robbers and thieves. If they do it again, they will be arrested and put in jail for a few days."
"I think they are still not convinced and are definitely planning to cause trouble again."
Aunt Zhou next to them immediately took the lead and shouted: "Don't let these people come to our community in the future!"
"Yes! People like this can't come here. Have you forgotten the family in our community that was wiped out last time? Who knows if they will bring knives into the community and chop people?"
"That's right! He doesn't look like a good person! What if he really comes in with a knife?"
"Let the police lock them up! They won't behave themselves unless they're locked up for a few days!"
"You damned bitch! It's you again! You're the one who keeps talking! You say so and I'm going to lock you up? You're the one who should be locked up the most!"
"Devils, devils, devils!"
"Fuck you! I'm so stupid...Ah! Bah! Bah! Police comrades! You saw it too! She started the fight first!"
"When did I hit you? I saw that your mouth was dirty, so I used a feather duster to clean your mouth! You call it hitting if I just touched you? You are useless, you sick chicken!"
Seeing that he was about to rush over, Uncle Wenming next to him stretched out the clothesline and poked him back.
The grandmas and aunties all raised their loudspeakers. This thing is great for arguing and also for fighting.
Seeing that a quarrel was about to break out again, the police felt that there was no point in a confrontation and decided to take the people away separately.
The people on the opposite side need to be taken away and taught a lesson. What the people in the community just said makes sense. If these people have bad intentions and come here with knives or something to cause trouble in the future, it will be troublesome. They were wrong in the first place. Just because they want to occupy someone else's house, can they? Lack of education!
But over here with the red loudspeaker... there are too many people and it's too noisy. Don't want to take it away.
Chen Wenhao popped up again at this time and said, "I will criticize the people here."
The police patted him on the shoulder and said seriously, "You need to educate them properly. If they start fighting, it won't be so easy to deal with. You still need to let the head of your village educate them on the law. You can't quarrel when something happens. You should sit down and talk it out calmly, right?"
"Yes, yes, you are right. I will tell the village chief when I return."
"Why do you only take us away? Why don't you take them away if they beat someone up?"
"Who hit you? Who hit you? Ask everyone, who hit you?"
Chen Jin, who had been silent the whole time, said, "No, it was just a touch. How can a grown man be so petty?"
"That's right! This guy is really a fool. No one beats him. Since you can't extort money from other people's houses, you want to extort money from me, right? If you have the guts, go to court and see if they will give you a win."
"That's enough, stop talking." The police officer told his colleague to take the people away, and said fiercely, "That's enough, you are the ones with the most serious problems! This is not the old society, where what belongs to the children belongs to the parents. That's not the new society!"
"Isn't it? Everyone knows that this is a new society, a society ruled by law! Why didn't the People's Liberation Army liberate your home before?"
Aunt Zhou crossed her arms over her chest, looking like she had won a battle. Just this expression could make anyone angry to death.
Chen Jin quietly turned around and whispered to Shen Baichuan: "Fortunately, our family has a good relationship with Aunt Zhou's family. Otherwise, if I confront her and have a fight with her, I will suffer from insomnia for half a month."
Uncle Wenming next to her looked at her silently and said nothing in the end. But that look seemed to say it all.
The police finally took the Ma family away.
Chen Wenhao also came over to disperse the onlookers and asked everyone to disperse.
The whole place was filled with the murmur of discussion and Uncle Chen running around the place: "Don't step on my fish! You took my fish, give it back to me! How could you steal fish?"
Chen Jin tried to hold back his laughter, but couldn't and laughed out loud again.
When most people had dispersed, the village chief appeared again.
They didn't say anything. After all, even though the onlookers had dispersed, there were still many people looking at them.
If you have anything to say, you have to go back and say it.
"Come on, we're all just getting together, let's go find a restaurant nearby and have a meal together."
"Are we having a celebration party?"
The village chief turned around and glared at Chen Yongqiang, who was smiling nonchalantly. The latter immediately shrank his neck and dared not speak anymore.
Because he lost all his family fortune in gambling, and only with the help of the village chief could he save his life and avoid huge debts, he is now even more afraid of the village chief.
Although Chen Yongqiang said that "celebration banquet" was inappropriate, in fact, this meal was a celebration banquet!
Ma Guihua discussed with Chen Siyan for a few words, then waved her hand and said, "Today's meal is on our family's treat."
Aunt Zhou rolled her eyes at her and said, "Why don't you let us pay? I wasted half a day's work to come here and help you whine. I've been whine for so long, and I'm lucky enough that I didn't pay you for your hard work. You've been so mean all day long. You were so noisy in the kindergarten. Did you drink paste today?"
"I'm not saying this, but you should thank us for what happened today. We weren't so active in shouting slogans during activities in the village before! Look at Grandma Chen San and Grandma Da Hua. They're still throwing tantrums to help you quarrel at their age."
Chen Sanpo and Zhao Dahua immediately said, "Yes! That's not easy..."
"That's enough, you guys are almost there. Isn't it easy for you? You are the best at rolling on the ground in the village!"
Chen Sanpo and Zhao Dahua: "......"
You've finished talking!
At the back, Chen Wenxing and his wife followed the main group silently. They really couldn’t understand why their mother had such a good relationship with Zhou Xiangxiang now?
Have you forgotten that Zhou Xiangxiang started with a bang and slapped me?
Chen Jin took Shen Baichuan's arm and began to tell him the details of today, speaking with great excitement.
Today, Qiaodong Village is more united than ever before.
To give a simple example, Aunt Zhou and Grandma Chen San, Aunt Ke Xin and Zhao Dahua, these two pairs of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who had fought each other to death, are now united against the outside world.
Everyone in Jinxiu Community also knows about it. Although Qiaodong Village has a small population, they are united.
Don't you believe it?
Let’s not talk about far places, why don’t you try going to the Xiangxiang fruit shop at the entrance of the community and make some noise?
Those who were unable to join in the fun today, tried to come for lunch.
The village chief picked up the cup and stood up. "Most people have arrived. Let me say a few words."
"You can quarrel, but don't break the law. That's enough, let's eat."
Chen Jin raised his hand.
"Third sister, do you have something to say? Okay, third sister, let me say a few words."
"Good!" Uncle San immediately led the applause. There was a loud applause and people at the nearby tables looked over.
Chen Jin was so embarrassed that he quickly covered his face, and then said: "I just want to say one thing, remember to return the speaker to me!"
