Zhang Zhiguo and Xiao Qian curled their lips and went out first.
The three men under Miao Changyou had taken off their dusty cotton jackets, put on cadre uniforms underneath, and brought Duan Wenjin and Duan Ying over and made them stand.
That little Du spoke first with a haughty manner.
"Duan Wenjin, how did it feel to be paraded through the streets today? Why don't you answer your question honestly?"
"...But someone has reported you. When you were young, you also opened a factory in Shanghai and were a capitalist!"
With him standing by and interrogating him like a fighting cock, Miao Changyou sat at the large desk, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a break.
This guy was very tired today. He dug the entire Duan family yard until dark. Except for a small wooden box, he didn't dig out any more treasures. He was so angry that he almost died.
I don't know where Zou Dongfang has gone! I really want to vent my anger on this thing that lied about military intelligence.
In fact, he didn't know that Zou Dongfang was hit on the head by a stone thrown by Lian Xiaomin, which caused bleeding and he went to the hospital.
Then I felt dizzy, so I listened to the doctor and went home and lay down quietly, saying it was probably a concussion.
…
Duan Wenjin had his back slightly hunched. He was a tall man, nearly sixty years old, and still looked elegant. But at this moment, he felt so uncomfortable that he couldn't even straighten his back.
He was silent, not knowing what to say. He just hoped that his eldest son Duan Ying could think it through and report him.
If he continued to suffer, his body would be useless and he would only suffer more. It would be better for him to die.
If I can save my two sons, daughter-in-law and grandchildren, my death will be worth it!
Duan Ying understood what his father was thinking. He tried hard to hold back his tears, thinking of his two young and innocent sons. How could he bear to let them suffer, as well as his second brother's unborn child...
However, he had secretly made up his mind that he would never be the beast who harmed his parents!
He didn't understand others, but how could he report his parents for taking the blame and even cut off all ties with them... No, he couldn't do it! He hoped his children wouldn't blame him for his choice...
Miao Changyou drank the tea and finally recovered a little.
"Old Duan, don't be so nervous. Zou Dongfang has found out your background. Although you have no relatives in the city, don't forget that your roots are in Shitouzhai Village!"
"... Don't you remember? Your relative, that Han Dianchen? Did he go to Shanghai to seek refuge with you? He confessed everything. You opened a big factory, but you fired him just because he stole a few rolls of cloth."
At this point, Duan Wenjin had no choice but to deny it.
"Han Dianchen and I are related through the Five Blessings. There is no one left in this branch of my family, so how can we have any relatives? He is just trying to pull and bite me. He has a grudge against me in the past and wants to harm me."
"Everyone was trying to make a living in Shanghai, and I was just working for a wealthy family. After coming back to Nanjing, I have been an ordinary working class person for more than 20 years!"
Duan Ying also said, "Yes, Director Miao, don't believe Zou Dongfang's lies!"
"...He fell in love with my sister-in-law, but he was a second-married man with three children, and he was not a good match for my sister-in-law, so we rejected him."
"…It was this incident that made him hate my family. Everything that happened afterwards is pure rumor!"
Xiao Du rushed forward and kicked Duan Ying, knocking him to the ground.
"Spreading rumors? I'm telling you, Duan Ying, three gold bars and a jade paperweight were found in your yard! If you still don't tell me the truth, where are the more property hidden? Then wait for the sentence!"
Duan Ying fell to the ground, holding his abdomen.
Duan Wenjin was panicked, but there was nothing he could do.
The paperweight was left by his father, and he really cherished it, so he didn't hide it in the sealed cellar, but buried it under the brick wall...
The three gold bars were also there just in case so that they could be used when the family needed money. Unexpectedly, they were all dug out.
He didn't know at that time that his house had been dug up three feet deep.
The four people who were running for gold, silver and treasures were all furious. They dug up the entire yard, and it was certain that the treasure could not be hidden. It was not surprising that the things under the west wall were found.
A short fat man next to Xiao Du also shouted, "Tell me, was the cellar over there in your utility room originally used to store your family property? Where has all the money been transferred to now?"
"…The cellar is so hidden, don't tell me it's for storing vegetables!"
When Duan Wenjin heard this, he was stunned. Could it be that that place had also been dug out?
But, how can there be nothing?
He was full of doubts in his heart, but he could only pretend to be ignorant on the surface, and repeatedly said that he knew nothing. Maybe the cellar was there when he bought the yard, but he had never discovered it.
Seeing Director Miao's expression, the three lackeys decided to take action against the father and son. How could they force the truth out of them without beating them up?
Look at that cellar, it's not small, how much gold and silver can it hold! Why is this old guy so stubborn and won't confess?
Miao Changyou sneered: "Old Duan, if you don't tell me, you will suffer. Don't think it's just a matter of a beating."
"… Think about your two grandchildren. They might die of illness in a couple of days… They won't be able to wait until the day they are sent to the farm!"
Duan Wenjin and Duan Ying glared at him, and after hearing this, they wanted to fight him to the death.
But he was immediately greeted with three people punching and kicking him.
Once in the hands of this group of people, there is no way we can defeat them.
At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly climbed up from the windowsill on the second floor.
The man broke through the glass window directly from outside, jumped into the house, rolled on the ground, stood up and came to Xiao Du.
"You, who are you..."
As soon as Xiao Du uttered the word "人", he was hit on the temple by a fist. His body hit the wall with a "bang" and he fell to the ground, without any sound.
Who else could it be other than Lian Xiaomin?
She used the flying claw chain to climb directly onto the second-floor window sill, flipped in and started to take action.
When I encounter such evil things, my hands really itch.
If we don't give these people a good beating, they will be spoiled!
After dealing with Xiao Du, she quickly swung her fist and hit the other two lackeys directly. In no time, the two men vomited blood and fell to the ground motionless.
Finally, she raised her finger and pointed at Miao Changyou behind the desk.
"Miao, where did you hide the money you embezzled? If you don't tell me, I can give you a ride and play mahjong with the three of them on the way to the underworld..."
Lian Xiaomin's voice was light and a bit joking.
When Miao Changyou heard this, the flesh on his face trembled three times with fear. He felt that this masked lady must be the soul-locking messenger!
How did she get up to the second floor? She came in just like that in a blink of an eye. Is she some kind of ancient robber who can climb walls and fly over rooftops?
“You, you…”
Seeing him trembling with fear, his arrogance was gone and he couldn't even speak properly. Lian Xiaomin went up to him and slapped him in the face.
With her hand strength, five finger marks appeared clearly on the fat face in just one move.
