Chapter 43 Arrived at the Right Time
I secretly thought that in fact, she not only likes to steal foreign tools, but also likes to steal people, but there is no chance.
The day we arrived in Bingzhou was the last day of 1979.
Heavy snow had already fallen in Bingzhou in the north, and people were hurrying on the road. She and Xiao Chen went to the guesthouse first.
Inside the guesthouse, Ye Qinglan recalled the information about the specimen villain: This person's name is Jian Rui, and according to the time calculation, he is only seventeen years old this year.
I took the college entrance examination three times starting from the year before last, but was rejected the first two times because of my background, and I didn't pass the third time.
Later, for some unknown reason, he became a cripple and was sentenced to eight years in prison.
However, despite his disability, he was strong-willed and still became a boss in the real estate industry with his intelligence and talent.
Before she came, she checked Jian Rui's address and found out that he currently lived in Jianjiazhuang, Yangliu Commune, under the jurisdiction of Bingzhou.
In fact, without checking, you can know that Jian Rui had problems with the college entrance examination. She was stuck when the college entrance examination was first resumed, but then she was relaxed in the second year. So it was not right that she was stuck the second time.
After resting until the evening, Xiao Chen and I went out to eat a bowl of knife-cut noodles. After returning, we stayed in the dormitory to read. She was really racing against time.
The next New Year's Day, after breakfast, the two rented a small truck from the guesthouse and headed to Yangliu Commune.
Yangliu Commune was about thirty or forty miles away from Bingzhou City, and the road was not easy to travel on. By the time they arrived at Jianjiazhuang, it was exactly noon.
As soon as I entered the Jian family manor, I saw people in the manor running in one direction.
As he ran, he shouted, "Fellow villagers, Xiaoyong and Jian Rui from the captain's family are fighting."
"Third Master, please run slower. Why is Xiaoyong fighting with Jian Rui?"
"I don't know."
"I saw Xiaoyong in the commune this morning. He brought back a few classmates, both boys and girls."
“…”
Ye Qinglan didn't expect it to be so smooth. She found Jian Rui as soon as she entered the village. She asked Xiao Chen to watch the car while she followed the villagers forward.
At this time, Jian Rui and her sister were standing in the captain's yard.
Jian Rui's hair has grown to her neck, which looks quite non-mainstream.
Several sons of the captain stood aside, staring at the siblings fiercely.
The captain was even more angry and said, "Rui, I feel sorry for your family's poor situation. You failed to get into college after taking the exams several times. You usually think of your sister and me when you have good things, but you come to my house and spit blood on me. You said Xiaoyong took your college, what evidence do you have? You come here to make a fuss without evidence. If you make Xiaoyong unable to go to college, I will beat you to death, do you believe it?"
"You still don't admit it! I heard Xiaoyong's female classmate call him Jian Rui. Ask Xiaoyong and the villagers to explain why his classmates call him Jian Rui? If you have the guts, take out your household registration and Xiaoyong's books and let everyone see what name is written on them!"
A trace of guilt flashed across the captain's eyes.
Jian Rui didn't miss his look and continued, "I've had my suspicions for a long time. Your Xiaoyong's grades are as bad as shit, but he was able to get into college. It's really strange."
"Bullshit!" At this time, the eldest son of the captain's family pointed at Jian Rui and cursed: "You are worthy of being the offspring of an old landlord. You are rotten from the root. You don't even think twice before slandering people. My Xiaoyong was lucky to be admitted. You are born with bad luck. You just can't pass the exam."
The second son raised his fist and said, "I'm going to beat you to death, you bastard! You come to my house and talk nonsense!"
“…”
When one child started to fight, the others gathered around.
The captain even stood at his own door and said, "He deserves a lesson for making a fuss without any evidence. You guys should teach him a lesson."
Jian Rui's sister wanted to rush over to help, but was stopped by the captain's third son, who said, "Why are you, a woman, getting involved in a man's business? Your brother is really no good. You can't marry into our family if he's like this. And if you marry into our family in the future, you are not allowed to subsidize this bullshit."
“…”
At this moment, the captain's eldest son took a long stick in his hand, raised it up and hit Jian Rui's leg hard.
It happened in a flash. Before the long stick could touch Jian Rui, it was whipped and swept away along with the stick.
The whip was whipped again and again, pulling the man who was holding Jian Rui away.
The screams of pain that followed made everyone look at Ye Qinglan, but Ye Qinglan looked at the captain.
"Captain Jian is so arrogant! A whole family bullies two siblings. Don't you fear being struck by lightning?"
Captain Jian hated unexpected events. He saw clearly the blow his eldest son gave him just now. If he had continued to hit him with the stick, given the cold weather, if he had delayed any longer, his legs would have been crippled.
Since Jian Rui has heard about what happened today, given this kid's temper, he will definitely make a fuss about it.
But if he is disabled, why would a disabled person go to college? He would not have the heart to do so.
When the time comes, he will send some money over and the matter will be over.
But this young man who suddenly appeared interrupted his plan, making him very unhappy.
He stared at Ye Qinglan and asked, "Who are you? Why are you meddling in my business?"
"I am the grandson of Jian Rui's grandmother's sister, and his cousin. Do you think I can mind his business? My family went abroad in the 1930s and currently lives in Country A. I came back to China this time to find the siblings and take them to live abroad. I will never come back. But I never expected to encounter such a scene."
As soon as he said this, people looked at him with more curiosity and envy. These two years are not like the previous few years. It is not a big deal to have overseas connections, and I heard that life abroad is much better.
However, the way Jian Rui and his brother looked at him was a little strange, especially Jian Rui, you are really good at making fun of me! My grandma only has one brother!
Ye Qinglan looked at Jian Rui: "Why don't you get up? What are you doing lying there? It's just a crappy university, what's there to argue about? If you follow your brother abroad, there's no good university you can go to."
Jian Rui paused, then hurriedly got up from the ground, with the corner of her lip broken.
Then he walked up to the captain's third son, pulled him away, and protected his sister behind him, cursing, "You toad want to eat swan meat!"
"You little bastard, I--" The captain's third son was about to beat someone up again.
But the captain stopped him in time: "San'er, stop messing around."
If this person had returned from abroad to take the Jian siblings abroad, then it really didn't matter whether they went to college or not, and there was no need to cause trouble for their family.
I just don't know whether what this person said is true or false.
One more question: "Are you really coming back from abroad to pick them up?"
Ye Qinglan then spoke a few words in foreign languages to him, and then continued, "Of course. As long as they are willing, we will go through the formalities tomorrow, and once the formalities are completed, we will leave. Why would I lie to you about this?"
