"When will your mother come back? If you ask me about this, who should I ask? I am just an ordinary citizen. Can I order the chief of the police station to release someone?" Zhou Fugui glared and said angrily.
Zhou Fugui ran around the town for several hours, but not only did he fail to accomplish anything, he was also very angry.
Zhou Bingqiang's question made Zhou Fugui vent his anger on him.
"Dad, look at what you said. I asked this question only because I heard from the captain that you went to the town to find a way." Zhou Bingqiang said embarrassedly.
"Yes, Dad, if you could command the chief of the police station, I wouldn't farm in the village!" Zhou Bingxing said sarcastically.
Zhou Bingxing always thought that Zhou Fugui's job would be passed on to him, but he didn't expect it to be snatched away by his sister Zhou Meimei.
Zhou Bingxing had been feeling depressed in recent years, and whenever he had the chance, he would say a few sarcastic words in front of Zhou Fugui.
If for no other reason than to vent my anger.
"You evil son of a bitch!" Zhou Fugui was so angry that he took off his shoes and smashed them on Zhou Bingxing's head.
Zhou Fugui was waiting for his sons to comfort him, but he didn't expect Zhou Bingxing to say this to him.
Of course Zhou Bingxing couldn't let Zhou Fugui hit him, so he took a few steps back and dodged by turning his head.
"Second brother, stop talking nonsense and listen to our dad." Zhou Bingqiang gave Zhou Bingxing a domineering look and warned him.
"Okay, okay, I'll just keep quiet, okay?" Zhou Bingxing shook his legs, looking nonchalant.
Zhou Fugui wanted to take off one of his shoes and smash it on the face of this evil boy.
"Dad, please calm down. Sit down and rest first." Zhou Bingqiang held Zhou Fugui's arm and persuaded him softly.
"Hmph!" Zhou Fugui was still very angry, but he couldn't help but give his eldest son some face.
After Zhou Bingqiang helped Zhou Fugui sit down on the stool, he picked up Zhou Fugui's shoes and put them on Zhou Fugui's feet.
"Boss! Your father is going to lose face in town today! I really hate myself, why can't I get any official position in this life?" Zhou Fugui burst into tears, holding Zhou Bingqiang's arm with one hand and slapping his own face with the other hand.
After leaving the Zhao family, Zhou Fugui felt more and more aggrieved.
Liang Xiaohe, a junior, asked him for wine money in person, wasn't he just relying on Zhao Qingshan's power?
Zhao Qingshan was also very malicious. Liang Xiaohe was so rude, but Zhao Qingshan did not stop her. This was condoning a junior to embarrass him!
And Zhao Zhenzhu was also mean and mean. Zhao Qingshan asked her to make noodles for him, but Zhao Zhenzhu pretended not to hear.
What does all this indicate?
The Zhao family looks down on him as a poor relative!
"Dad, don't cry first! Who made you angry? Were you scolded when you went to the police station today?" Zhou Bingqiang grabbed Zhou Fugui's hand that slapped him and asked.
Zhou Bingxing curled his lips.
His father really thought it was simple. Being an official? Can he become one just if he wants to?
His father is incompetent and his brain isn't very useful.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have let Zhou Meimei, that ungrateful person, cheat me out of my job with just a few words.
Zhou Fugui didn't know his second son was cursing him in his heart. He shook his head at Zhou Bingqiang and said, "No, the people at the police station were very friendly. I just took out a cigarette and they helped me find a solution! It was Zhao Qingshan."
Zhou Fugui gritted his teeth when he said this.
"Relative Zhao? What happened to him?" Zhou Bingqiang asked.
Zhou Fugui said aggrievedly: "I didn't want to bother Zhao Qingshan, so I called Bingchen first. Unfortunately, Bingchen was out on a mission, so I couldn't find him."
"I thought, your mother has been with me for decades, I can't just leave her at the police station! So I went to Zhao's house to look for Zhao Qingshan. I didn't expect that when I got to Zhao's house, I didn't get to eat a bite of food, not even a sip of water."
"And that Liang Xiaohe is such a shrew. She interrupts when the elders are talking. Zhao Qingshan stands aside and watches Liang Xiaohe throwing a tantrum without saying a word."
"Zhao Zhenzhu is the same, pretending to be deaf and dumb. She saw me but acted as if she didn't see me."
"Alas! It's all my fault that I'm useless. No one likes me anywhere."
Zhou Fugui did not say a word about his own faults, portraying himself as a good husband who was "eager to save his wife", and threw all the dirty water on Zhao Qingshan and others.
"The Zhao family is going too far! Dad, why don't we go and ask the captain to help us think of a solution!" Zhou Bingqiang said.
"I won't go." Zhou Fugui refused.
Zhou Fugui was afraid of losing face.
Zhou Fugui was pretending to be stupid in front of Zhou Dazhu not long ago, thinking that he had "connections" in the town and was very arrogant. He went to the town for a walk, and then came back to ask Zhou Dazhu for help. Zhou Dazhu didn't know how to laugh at him in his heart!
"Dad, then...we'll just watch Mom being detained and do nothing else?" Zhou Bingqiang was anxious.
Zhou Bingqiang's position as accountant is very popular in Zhoujia Village.
Zhou Bingqiang was afraid that after Ding Ermei was detained, other people in the village would think that his family was incompetent and would then jump out to compete with him for the accounting position.
"How can we manage it? Do you have money or connections? Your mother scratched the policeman's face and left several bloody grooves. The boss of the police station told me that we have to find someone to say hello to the director, apologize to the policeman, and pay for his medical expenses and nutrition expenses. If we really want to get your mother out, it will cost at least 20 or 30 yuan, maybe 40 or 50 yuan." Zhou Fugui said.
"Hiss~!" Zhou Bingqiang took a breath of cold air.
Zhou Bingqiang has some filial piety, but not much. He works hard from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and his bonus from the brigade is only a dozen yuan at most.
Forty or fifty yuan? Zhou Bingqiang would have to work for nothing for at least three or four years.
If Zhou Fugui was unwilling to pay the money, Zhou Bingqiang would also be reluctant to pay it.
"Brother, I heard that for a mother like ours, she will be detained for three to five days at most and then released. Wouldn't it be stupid for us to rush to pay for her medical expenses?" Zhou Bingxing was also unwilling to pay.
Between mother and money, Zhou Bingxing and Zhou Bingqiang chose money.
"Dad, let's go and bring meals and bedding to Mom later! I heard from the team leader that the police station does not provide bedding and meals for detention, and family members have to bring them." After thinking for half a minute, Zhou Bingqiang finally made a decision.
"What the hell! Let her go hungry for a few meals in there to sober herself up. Day after day, she never gets any good things and just keeps causing trouble for us." Zhou Fugui waved his hand and went back to his room.
Zhou Fugui felt that he had done his best by running errands for Ding Ermei today.
Besides, it wasn't just his idea not to save Ding Ermei. Both of his sons said they didn't want to save her!
Zhou Fugui was unwilling to go to the town again to see people's faces.
"Second brother, look..." After Zhou Fugui left, Zhou Bingqiang asked Zhou Bingxing.
"Let's listen to Dad. Mom is indeed a bit out of control. Even the police dared to beat her. Is she so bold? Dad is right. It would be good to let her go hungry for a few meals to clear her mind." Zhou Bingxing acted like a "filial son" at this time, and he would do whatever Zhou Fugui said.
