Aunt Li Wu knew very well that Li Zhuang gambled with that group of hooligans in his free time. When she heard the shout, her heart skipped a beat.
Then, his mouth cursed faster than his brain, "You black-hearted prisoner, you got arrested yourself and you dragged my son into it."
"My son works diligently on the farm. How could he have time to gamble with you? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth off."
Zhao Erlaizi has been a scoundrel since he was a child. People who scold him can line up from the Zhaojia Village Brigade to the commune. How could he be afraid of being scolded by a stinky old woman?
Although his body was pressed down, his mouth was not blocked. "You will know if I am talking nonsense or not if you look for it. Didn't you argue about where the betrothal gifts went yesterday? It's right here, under the third brick of the broken window by the door. It can be moved. You can pull it out and you can see it."
He's been arrested, and there's no telling when he'll be able to return. Right now, during the crackdown, he'll likely be sent to a farm for decades. By the time he gets out, the world outside will likely be completely different.
The best years of his life were spent on the farm, and that's how his life has been.
He would never leave that money to other people who had sneaked away. Li Zhuang was one of them, and so was Sun Laosan from the next brigade... He calculated in his mind that no one could escape.
Aunt Li Wu rushed over to stop them, blocking the way with her frail body. "My son didn't gamble, he was just talking nonsense. Why would you believe the words of a gangster?"
Public Security Cui advised, "We don't necessarily believe what he says, so we're here to investigate, aren't we? Get out of the way quickly, or you'll be obstructing public service and we'll arrest you."
Aunt Li Wu knew that if she moved aside, her Da Zhuang would be doomed and would definitely be arrested, so no matter what Public Security Cui said, she just raised her head and refused to leave.
Public Security Cui turned around and wanted to ask the captain to find someone to bring her over. As soon as he turned around, he saw Li Zhuang's figure moving.
Li Zhuang panicked and tried to run, but before he could take a few steps, Cui Gongan who had caught up with him pinned him to the ground.
Cui Gongan and Zhang Gongan: We originally thought that for such a trivial matter as the betrothal gift, two people at most would be enough. But now, they have each arrested one person, but we still haven't seen the betrothal gift. Or maybe we didn't bring enough people.
At this time, Zhang Gongan had already handcuffed the man, and Cui Gongan followed closely behind and pushed the two men together.
Aunt Li Wu watched the two tall police officers staring at her, then looked at Li Zhuang sadly. Although sad, she continued to fire like a machine gun: "Why are you arresting my son? He didn't commit any crime."
Finally, the captain ordered someone to pull her away.
The two of them immediately squatted down and started moving the bricks as Zhao Erlaizi said.
The bricks were thrown on the ground, and Cui Gongan reached in and took out some coins. Small pieces of loose change and a small bag embroidered with mandarin ducks fell to the ground, stirring up a small cloud of dust.
"Isn't this the mandarin duck embroidered by her eldest daughter-in-law?"
"Yes, her embroidery is the best among the other brigades nearby our brigade. No one else can do it."
"It was indeed embroidered by him. Last month, I was sitting with her under the big banyan tree at the end of the village, chatting. She was embroidering this at that time. I can't be mistaken."
"Li Zhuang really went gambling and lost all his betrothal gifts."
"Damn it, I actually got infected."
The captain looked very unhappy. Their team had never been arrested before, but this time, they were the first to get out!
At this time, Public Security Cui squatted on the ground and poured out the money in the small bag, which was exactly fifty yuan and a signed IOU.
The note clearly read, "Today, Li Zhuang from the Lijia Village Brigade borrowed 150 yuan from Zhao Qiang. The interest is 10 yuan per month. The principal and interest are due on July 30th."
"Not only do you gamble, you also owe money?" asked Public Security Cui.
Li Zhuang muttered nothing.
"Not only did Li Zhuang lose the betrothal gift in gambling, he even borrowed money to gamble. Oh my God, if he were my son, I would beat him to death."
"It's really unfortunate to give birth to a son like this."
"The interest is 10 yuan a month, why doesn't Zhao Qiang just rob it?"
"Where do you think these thugs get the money to live a luxurious life?"
"Will this lead to execution?"
"So, who is Zhao Qiang?"
"Aunt Li Wu brags about her three sons every day. Now one of them has gotten hooked on gambling and been arrested. I think she didn't educate them well."
"So, who is Zhao Qiang?"
"Why don't we arrest Uncle Li Wu and Aunt Li Wu and teach them a lesson? They're not good people anyway."
"So, who is Zhao Qiang?"
"Ask, ask, ask. Your grandfather, Zhao Qiang, is being tortured. Ask again, and try asking?" Zhao Erlaizi cursed.
"Isn't your name Zhao Erlaizi?"
Zhao Erlaizi was already annoyed about being arrested, and there was also a fool asking him every day, "Who the hell is named Erlaizi?" What a brainless person.
He spat, rolled his eyes, and closed them to rest.
Although Zhao Erlaizi is a gangster, he also has a conscience. He left a lot of money for his family, which should be enough for his mother to use. However, he may not be able to take care of her in the future.
But he told his elder brother that he would come to this place and look around when the time comes, as they had left a lot of money there.
Just as I thought of this, I heard Zhang the policeman knocking around with his hands, then he pulled out a brick, took out the money inside, and then continued with the previous action.
Zhao Erlaizi's eyes widened. How did they know there was another place to hide the money?
If Zhang Gongan heard what he was thinking, he would definitely curse in his heart. Who do they think they are fools? These gamblers are so cunning that they have three burrows, not to mention where they hide their money.
