Chapter 81 Home Search
"Director Liu, I know."
Lu Liangchen has been busy these days, and he reminds her to be more careful. She is very careful every day and only stays within the textile factory.
She knew very well that the first rafters to protrude would rot first.
These days, her outstanding performance and the importance attached to her by the factory leaders have put her in the spotlight.
Not to mention, she also severely offended the Li family, and the Li brothers and sisters should be the kind of people who will never let go of any grudge.
Even if they are unlucky, they will probably drag her down with them.
That day, Jiang Haitang was busy for more than three hours in a row. After completing the predetermined goal, he relaxed completely.
"I can finally get off work with peace of mind. I have to make something delicious for Xiao Taozi at noon today. I don't know if Lu Liangchen will come home." Jiang Haitang picked up the wet towel to wipe her hands, muttering to herself.
She locked the office door and left. There was a sycamore tree outside the house. The leaves had begun to turn yellow, adding a bit of bleakness to the look.
The golden sunlight shines through the mottled sycamore trees, casting tiny and desolate spots of light.
Although the weather is fine, the autumn wind is blowing and the temperature is low.
Jiang Haitang wrapped her clothes slightly and quickened her pace.
After returning home, Jiang Haitang put her bag on the cabinet and was about to cook, but she found that there seemed to be signs that someone had moved around in the house.
She observed carefully, examining every corner of the house.
On the desk, "Principles of Textiles" was still open, but the pen on it was no longer in its original position.
The drawer of the desk was opened a little, and the miscellaneous items placed in the old cardboard box under the desk remained unchanged.
She quickly flipped through the book and found nothing unusual. She then opened the drawer and found everything in it, no more and no less.
But Jiang Haitang still felt uneasy, so she continued searching.
I searched the cabinets and beds carefully, and sure enough, there was something fishy.
Jiang Haitang actually found a letter in the gap between her bed and the wall.
She quickly glanced at it. The letter was written in English. She had seen beautiful English writing in her previous life.
This letter was obviously written by someone who did not understand foreign languages, and it was written in a crooked manner.
Someone wants to harm her!
Jiang Haitang immediately held the letter in her hand, and after making sure that there was nothing left in the house, she quickly went to the kitchen to burn the letter.
But the flame of the honeycomb coal stove could not be lit for a while.
Jiang Haitang decisively gave up the idea of burning it, and instead threw the letter paper directly into the water and rubbed it vigorously.
The quality of paper in this era was average, and a piece of paper would quickly turn into crumbs in the water.
Jiang Haitang looked around and threw a tattered rag into the water.
Just as I finished doing this, there was a sound coming from the door, and then the door was pushed open with force.
Jiang Haitang hurriedly picked up the bowl, scooped out a bowl of noodles from the bag and placed it on the chopping board, then hurried out.
"Who are you? Why did you come straight into my house?"
Jiang Haitang looked at the five or six people who came in and asked with a stern face.
"Comrade Jiang Haitang, we are from the Party Committee. We have received a report and need to inspect your dormitory. Please cooperate."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man who looked a bit wretched. His voice was rough, like a shovel scraping through sand, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Haitang was sure that she had never seen this person before.
"I work at the textile factory. You have no right to search my dormitory. If you want to search, please coordinate through the factory office."
The man with a rough voice in the lead was called Zhou Dehai. He twisted his mouth to reveal a very ugly smile.
"It's not up to you, Jiang Haitang."
As the man spoke, he had already ordered several of his men to rush into Jiang Haitang's room.
Several people roughly pushed Jiang Haitang aside and began to search the house.
"Jiang Haitang, it's better for you to admit it voluntarily. It's different if we find out about it than if you confess it voluntarily." Zhou Dehai didn't move, just staring at Jiang Haitang.
"Only because I, Old Zhou, am kind and considerate of women, would I be willing to give you this opportunity. If you are shameless, don't blame me."
"Director Zhou, let me emphasize again, I am a researcher at the textile factory. You have no right to search my room."
"You're the most stubborn person in the whole body. Once you find out, we'll see what you have to say."
“What if we can’t find it?”
Jiang Haitang knew very well that what they were looking for was the letter that had just been destroyed.
"Can't find it? Jiang Haitang, there's no such thing as an impenetrable wall. As long as you've done it, there will be clues to follow. Don't even think about hiding it."
"Director Zhou, you can always find excuses to accuse me. I'm an upright person, and I do my work with integrity. I have no regrets for my conscience, my country, or my Party."
At this time, several people in the room swept their eyes over every corner of the room like hawks, and several of them searched in different locations.
A young man wearing glasses roughly opened her book, accidentally tore two pages, threw the book to the ground, and cursed a few times.
A fair-skinned man who looked a bit like a scoundrel started rummaging through her bed. He searched very carefully, touching her inch by inch, and almost took apart her quilt and bed.
A short and fat man who looked like a winter melon opened Jiang Haitang's cabinet and roughly tore out the few things in her cabinet.
Then, the man saw the unfinished sweater she had knitted for Lu Liangchen.
"What's this?" The man's name was Chen Gang. He looked like he had something on Jiang Haitang. "Jiang Haitang, you're supposed to be single. Why are there men's clothes in your room? Tell me, are you having an affair?"
Jiang Haitang suddenly felt as if these people were here to catch someone cheating.
"I'm single, but I'm in a relationship. This is a gift I'm giving to my partner. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Chen Gang was originally very aggressive, but who knew that he was choked back by Jiang Haitang.
Although people now attach more importance to relationships between men and women, knitting a sweater for your partner is not a big deal.
"Jiang Haitang, as far as I know, you haven't been divorced for long, right?"
"Director Zhou, no one says you have to observe three years of mourning for your ex-husband after a divorce, right? What's wrong with me finding a partner after a divorce?"
When Zhou Dehai was questioned, he could not find any reason to refute Jiang Haitang, so he could only scold the people who were searching the house.
"Search thoroughly, not just this house, but also the kitchen and bathroom. Search the front and back yards thoroughly."
Jiang Haitang understood very well that this was intentional.
They must have arranged for someone to place the letter, and they knew exactly where it was placed.
The decision to search the front, back yard and kitchen was obviously a way to intimidate her.
After Zhou Dehai made the arrangements, the man with glasses rushed to the kitchen after searching the desk without success.
"Comrade, if the dishes in my kitchen are damaged, I will demand compensation."
This person had just thrown everything on her desk to the ground roughly.
Those books and papers dropped on the ground can be picked up without affecting their use, but if the things in the kitchen are dropped on the ground, they will all be ruined.
"you……"
Looking at Jiang Haitang's fearless look, the man with glasses did not throw everything on the ground like he did when he searched the desk, but instead knocked on the cabinet door.
Jiang Haitang looked calm on the surface, but in fact, she was always observing carefully, afraid that her little eyes would see the basin.
