Chapter 75 Unexpected Events
"Ah? Uncle Chu, what happened to my family? Did they tell me?"
Su Dapeng stood up with a look of anxiety.
"Your family didn't tell you the specific situation. You pack up and I'll take you to the county town now. You can still catch the last bus in the afternoon."
Chu Xiaowei didn't know much, but Su Dapeng's family went to great lengths to call him, so there must be something important.
The farm was the only one with a telephone. Su Dapeng's family only knew that he had come to the farm, but didn't know the phone number. So his family went to the Electric Power Industry Bureau, and it was the security guard, Uncle Ma, who helped them to call.
It's not very convenient to make a phone call now. Very few private homes have phones. Generally, only units have them, and of course they won't let people call casually.
"Dapeng, don't worry, you'll know what happened when you go back. Let's go, Uncle Chu and I will take you back together. I'll be back in a few days."
Du Shaojie asked Su Dapeng to take his things with him, and then followed Chu Xiaowei out the door.
Finally, Chu Xiaowei drove the tractor straight to the county town. The three of them were silent along the way, especially Su Dapeng, who wished he could fly home immediately.
When they arrived at the station, Su Dapeng hurriedly bought a ticket and got on the bus. Du Shaojie
gave a few instructions, and after the bus started, he and Chu Xiaowei returned to the farm together.
The next morning. Du Shaojie
had just been free when someone from the farm office came to call him.
"Master Du, there is a phone call for you. The farm manager asked him to call back in half an hour. You should go to the farm office as soon as possible ."
Du Shaojie ran as soon as he heard it, and ran to the farm office in one breath
. The phone was here, and he waited patiently for a while, and then the phone rang.
"Hello, please call Du Shaojie."
"Dapeng, it's me.
" "Shaojie, my dad is in trouble."
The call was from Su Dapeng, who briefly explained what happened and hung up.
Su Dapeng's father was a capable man and was very popular in the unit. But people like this have a characteristic, that is, they like to drink and have contact with a variety of people.
That day, a colleague from the unit came to his house to drink, and brought a stranger, the so-called "friend of a friend".
Su Dapeng's father didn't mind. This kind of situation happened a lot. Isn't it just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks?
After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, everyone was drunk. The man brought by the colleague saw the hunting rifle hanging on the wall and insisted on shouting to go to the back mountain to shoot birds.
"What's the big deal? Let's go!"
Su's father was very concerned about face, and he was a little drunk. Although it was dark at this time, he still took out the hunting rifle and took some bullets and went to the back mountain with the two.
What happened later was a bit unbelievable.
The man insisted that he could shoot a gun, but he held the hunting rifle in his hand and aimed everywhere, not caring whether it would be dangerous.
Before Su's father could stop it, he heard a "bang" and his colleague fell to the ground and would never get up again.
This was the case, and the nature was very serious. Su's father and the guy were both locked up.
"Dapeng, your father is not the first person responsible for this matter, so the problem should not be big. So, I will talk about other things when I get back. Don't worry, there will always be a way." It
's not easy to say too much on the phone, so Du Shaojie quickly ended the call.
When he walked out of the field office, he was still thinking, what kind of thing is this!
A few days later, the field distributed welfare, and Du Shaojie returned home with the flour and cooking oil he got.
"Alas, Dapeng's family has such a thing, and his mother couldn't figure it out and fell ill and was admitted to the hospital. Son, see if there is any way you can help them, and help a little bit."
Wang Yuxiu couldn't help sighing when talking about Su Dapeng's family.
What a good child, but he has to endure such hardships. His father was in prison, his mother was bedridden, and his sister, who had just married, had not returned from another place.
There are two old people at home, and he has to worry about everything alone.
"Well, I know."
Du Shaojie put down his things and went out to find Su Dapeng.
Xiaomei and Xiaoya were very well-behaved. They knew their brother was busy, so they didn't stick to him.
"Xiaojie, eat first before you go."
Wang Yuxiu shouted from behind. This was also a worrying person who didn't take care of himself at all.
"I'm not hungry. I'll eat when I come back."
Du Shaojie responded and ran out of the yard.
There were people coming and going on the road. It was the peak time for people to get off work. The smell of food was everywhere in Chunfeng Lane.
The cold wind blew, and he couldn't help shivering. It looked like the weather was going to change. He
came to Su Dapeng's house, knocked on the door, and saw that the other party was preparing dinner.
"Shaojie, are you back? You sit down for a while and wait until I'm done with my work."
Su Dapeng had two dark circles under his eyes, and it was obvious that he hadn't rested well.
Du Shaojie didn't know how to comfort him for a while, so he waved his hand gently and walked into the kitchen with him.
"I say, what are you doing? It's like a garbage dump."
After just one glance, Du Shaojie couldn't help but want to curse.
The whole kitchen was in a mess, with a pile of things on the chopping board, stove and floor. The rotten vegetable leaves gave off an unpleasant smell, the pots and dishes were not washed, and the seasoning cans were scattered everywhere.
He stepped forward and kicked the other person, saying, "Get out of here, let me do it."
Perhaps it was a professional habit, Du Shaojie couldn't stand the mess in the kitchen.
He spent more than half an hour to clean up the kitchen, and pressed Su Dapeng to clean all the pots and pans.
A few potatoes, a handful of leeks and a few eggs were prepared in the kitchen. The staple food was white flour steamed buns, which were not clear for a few days and were dry and hard.
"Dapeng, how is the situation?"
Du Shaojie asked while cutting vegetables.
"The family of the deceased made a big fuss, saying that they wanted that idiot and my father to pay for their lives. My father was responsible for this matter, but the responsibility was not big. How did it come to the point of paying for his life?"
Su Dapeng had never dealt with such a difficult matter before, and his heart was in a mess.
"The crying child gets the milk. You are making a fuss to get benefits.
It is true that the hunting rifle belongs to your father, but it was not accidentally discharged in his hands, so the responsibility is relatively minor." The family members of the deceased are making a fuss, which is normal. It is right to make appropriate compensation within a reasonable range, but if the other party asks for too much, there is no need to pay attention.
As for Su Dapeng, the important thing now is not to panic, and to have a clear mind.
Du Shaojie talked a lot, and a dish of [home-cooked potato slices] and a dish of [scrambled eggs with leeks] were prepared.
The steamed buns in the steamer were also steamed hot, and he asked Su Dapeng to bring them into the house.
"I didn't know you were coming. There are only a few steamed buns at home. How about some noodles?"
Su Dapeng guessed that the other party had not eaten either, but he didn't know how to cook at all, and he looked very embarrassed.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and accompany your grandpa and grandma to eat, I'll go first and come back later."
Du Shaojie has already understood the details of the situation, and there is no point in staying any longer.
It's impossible for two grown men to look at each other and shed tears, right? The scene was so beautiful that he couldn't imagine it at all.
After leaving Su Dapeng's house, Du Shaojie went back to eat a few bites of food, then rode his bicycle straight to the Electric Power Industry Bureau. He had no way to deal with this matter and could only seek external help.
As for who might be able to help, it seemed that the only person he knew was Liao Yongxin.
Liao Yongxin had a wide network of contacts and a good relationship with Du Shaojie. He decided to ask the other party.
