Chapter 74 Someone else is in trouble (2/2)



The family compound was bustling with activity today. Not only was Lin Jiadong's affair exposed, but Sister Li, Li Cuiying, also got into trouble.

Li Cuiying is the widow of a martyr. According to the policy, she received a lump sum of money when her husband passed away. Considering that her two children are still young, she is given a small pension every month.

The leader who decided this matter at the time also had selfish motives. The pension for the two children would end when they reached adulthood. If Li Cuiying remarried, the children would no longer be able to receive the pension. In other words, he did not want Li Cuiying to remarry and keep the pension for Old Tang.

Li Cuiying herself hadn't found the conditions to change her parents, so for several years now, she had been raising her two daughters alone. The eldest was ten years old and the youngest was seven.

Later, seeing that she had no intention of remarrying, and because she was unemployed and her company was taking care of her, they asked the logistics department to give her some defective labor protection products at a low price and let her take them out for disposal. This was a disguised way of supporting Li Cuiying to make some private money.

Li Cuiying’s accident this time can be regarded as indirectly caused by these labor protection products.

When she deals with labor protection supplies outside, others know that she is either related to the army or a special confidential unit. Otherwise, how could she always have so many labor protection supplies to sell?

So she was targeted by people outside.

It was also through her that people got to know Gordon Lam.

Li Cuiying thought it was just a simple introduction of a person, what could be a big deal, so she was cautious at first. Later, she heard Lao Lin tell her that it was nothing, just some private work, collecting some diodes, and assembling a radio or something. Of course, he couldn't say this openly, but it meant that he was just helping out a little and making a little money.

Li Cuiying felt that every family wouldn't want to make a little extra money, but she also didn't believe that Lao Lin, a mere engineer, would go out and build radios for people outside. Why would he give away his money when he couldn't just make it himself?

Li Cuiying's problem wasn't a big deal. At most, it was because her ideological awareness wasn't high enough, her sense of vigilance wasn't strong enough, and she casually introduced someone to Lao Lin.

But later, the investigation team searched her home and found a big bag of money!

All these money and notes were exchanged for labor insurance products!

Teacher Wu was shocked when he heard this: "How can a defective product be exchanged for so much money?"

Teacher Yuan said, "You underestimate these things. Take the woolen cloth we received, for example. A dozen woolen cloths have 12 pieces. If there are some broken threads or snagging threads in them, we'll just treat them as defective and give them all to her for 1.8 cents. She can take them home and pick them out. If there are only a few defective ones for a penny, how can we not sell them for money?"

The topic of Lam Ka Tung's case came up again, and Master Yuan's voice dropped. "This time, it was Yang Xu who reported it. She knew she wouldn't get into trouble even if she didn't report him, so she decided to go all out and report Old Lin! There were not only letters at home, but also several small yellow croakers. She noticed the small yellow croakers and thought something was wrong, so she reported it directly. Later, someone searched their house and found a lot of letters!"

Su He listened to these things and was just worried about what would happen to the two children after they followed Yang Xu. "Then Yang Xu, if he made a good report, doesn't he have to go back to his hometown? Can he still stay here?"

Yuan Shiqi: "She definitely can't live in our family compound, but we can get her a household registration in town. She can also live in town with her two children, which is better than going back to her hometown."

"Yang Xu later whispered to me that her grandparents, brothers, nephews, and nieces had all gone to work on the farm! If she had taken her two children back to her parents' home, she wouldn't have escaped the same treatment!"

Teacher Wu was thinking: "I wonder if there is anyone left with Jianhua's two children and their grandparents. Will they come to look for them in the future?"

Master Yuan nodded. "So, I'm going to tell you quietly. No one should tell anyone about Yang Xu. This matter must not be spread! Even if she has done something meritorious, even the reasonable Lin family will probably feel uncomfortable. If they are unreasonable, it will be even more troublesome!"

Su He thought, Master Yuan, please don't be such a pessimist. If that's the case, then Yang Xuzi and the other two won't be able to live a peaceful life!

A few days later, Captain Tong helped pull all the wooden boards back, using the canteen's tractor, and Xiao Liu was still the one driving the tractor.

They unloaded the planks and moved them to the west wing. Captain Tong, realizing they were for flooring, said to Liu Aihua, "Why don't we just help them out? Since the doctor isn't here, let's just finish the job together. Comrade Xiao Su, tell us how we should do this job, and we'll do it your way."

This was exactly what Su He wanted. She took out some snakeskin bags, which she had already washed and dried, and spread them on the floor to prevent moisture from getting underneath. The floor of the room was already paved with red bricks, so she spread the snakeskin bags on top, then put the wooden boards facing up, and laid them on the ground.

This board was specially made by Lao He under the guidance of the doctor. It is not a difficult task for them to use wedges to make furniture figures and leave an interface between the boards.

The boards were laid quickly, and the doctor even asked Lao He to make the baseboards. Su He could only admire them.

The planks were already laid, and if they weren't stable, they could nail some skirting boards against the wall to keep them in place. Su He knew about skirting boards, but Captain Tong and Xiao Liu didn't know what to do with the remaining long wooden strips.

Su He gestured with it, and the two grown men finally realized what was going on.

Once the room is completely decorated, it looks really comfortable.
