I went to open the door and saw a few serious-looking people standing there.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a stern face. He looked Jiang Xiaoci up and down with sharp eyes. Seeing that she was young, had a simple appearance, and was dressed very simply, he was stunned for a moment.
But soon, he was still businesslike, took out a piece of paper from his jacket pocket, waved it, and introduced himself.
"Comrade, we are from the investigation team. We have received a report that your family's wealth is of unknown origin, which seriously violates current social principles and has the characteristics of a capitalist roader. This is a search warrant."
Jiang Xiaoci's heart tightened. It was exactly the same as in his previous life. What was supposed to come had finally come.
The man gave her a search warrant and, without waiting for her to speak, waved his hand and said, "Go in and search!"
Following behind were seven or eight young men wearing red-sleeved jackets and military green uniforms. Upon hearing this, they all responded, "Yes, Team Leader Xu."
Jiang Xiaoci quickly stepped aside and watched the investigation team rush into her house like wolves and tigers to search.
She pursed her lips and frowned slightly, but said nothing.
He feigned surprise and confusion and said to Team Leader Xu, "Your Excellency, my family has always lived a simple life. How could such a thing as a capitalist-roader come from?"
Team Leader Xu took one look at her. Seeing that she was young and dressed modestly, he said, "Whether there is any, you'll know after searching. Don't ask any more questions!"
Jiang Xiaoci just kept his mouth shut and watched the members of the investigation team rummaging around the house. The sounds of footsteps and scattered items mixed together, making it extremely noisy.
Even the cups, bowls, plates and dishes were moved around at random, making crisp noises; the old quilt was pulled out of the cupboard and thrown aside at random.
Jiang Xiaoci stood aside and saw that the things in the house were a bit messy during the search, but he didn't care. Anyway, the things left outside were worthless.
She thought to herself, fortunately she had made preparations, and the valuables were all in the mother space of the blood jade bracelet, so they couldn't find anything.
Such a big commotion naturally alarmed the other neighbors in the compound.
Even after the investigation team's jeep sped into the family compound, someone in the compound had already seen it.
When the members of the investigation team filed out of the car, they were dressed in neat uniforms and went to Jiang Decai's home with serious expressions.
After such a big commotion, many neighbors had already gathered near the Jiang family's small courtyard, whispering and talking about it.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know. Why would the investigators come to the Jiang family? It looks like the problem is a bit serious."
"Did the Jiang family offend someone?"
"Who knows? Jiang Decai and his wife went to work yesterday. It seems like there's only a little girl at home now."
…
There were all kinds of rumors. Those in the compound who had a good relationship with the Jiang family were worried about them. When the enthusiastic neighbor Uncle Fuman saw this situation, he was so anxious that he immediately ran to the garment factory where Jiang Decai and his wife worked to inform the couple about the matter.
Those who were not closely related to Jiang Xiaoci's family were gloating over their misfortune and started gossiping to everyone around them. Those with loud voices attracted quite a few people to watch the show.
For example, the Liu Mao family who lived across from the Jiang family. Liu Mao's wife did not have a job and usually stayed at home to take care of three children, two boys and one girl. At this moment, she was standing outside, with her hands on her hips, slapping her thighs and laughing. The laughter was sharp and piercing, and she was extremely excited.
