"Xiaojiu, Jiasheng, and Yunxiang have gone to the market to buy things. They will be home soon. You two just wait at home obediently, okay?" Zhao Guohui arranged the two children's affairs. Zhao Guohui did this to divert the attention of Zhou Yuanyuan and her brother. The children were still young and had certainly never seen the police arresting people. It would be bad if they were scared.
"Uncle, we'll be good. You're not afraid, oh!" Zhou Yuanyuan patted Zhao Guohui's arm, her eyes flickering between Xiao Zhang and Lao Jiang. There was a hint of sharpness in Zhou Yuanyuan's expression. If her uncle was wronged in the police station, she swore she would not let anyone off the hook.
At that moment, Lao Jiang felt the hairs on his body stand up. Lao Jiang's sensitivity to danger is innate. Before he was discharged from the army, Lao Jiang was an excellent scout in the army. Relying on his natural sensitivity, Lao Jiang avoided danger several times.
Zhou Yuanyuan's aura was instantly suppressed. Old Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel a dampness on his back.
On the day they went to Zhoujia Village to arrest Zhao Yunxiang, Lao Jiang was on duty at the police station and did not go with Xiao Zhang. When Zhou Yuanyuan and Zhou Jiasheng went to the police station to cause trouble, Lao Jiang was led away by Wen Ziqing. So this was Lao Jiang's first time meeting Zhou Yuanyuan.
The "qi" in Zhou Yuanyuan's body is now as thick as wheat straw, and she is already considered a martial arts master.
Simply put, if Zhou Yuanyuan goes all out, she can easily knock down six or seven strong men with the same fighting power as Lao Jiang in just a cup of tea.
When Zhou Yuanyuan didn't show her aura, she was just an adorable little girl, just like the one Xiao Zhang saw. But when she showed her aura, she instantly became a dangerous figure that Lao Jiang focused on guarding against.
Fortunately, Zhou Yuanyuan's momentum subsided as soon as it was released. Lao Jiang looked around Zhao Guohui's yard several times, but he couldn't find the "master" that frightened him.
Before Zhao Yunxiang came back, Zhao Guohui still followed Lao Jiang and the others.
Xu Liqin had a sad face, and she looked like she had lost her soul.
"Aunt, Aunt." Zhou Yuanyuan called twice, and Xu Liqin seemed to be awakened.
"Xiaojiu, you and your brother wait for mom at home. Your aunt has to go to work." Xu Liqin said with a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Goodbye, auntie." Zhou Yuanyuan raised her little hand and tried to put on a sweet smile. Xu Liqin's face was very bad. Zhou Yuanyuan thought she was frightened by Zhao Guohui's matter and didn't think anything else. After all, Xu Liqin had been married to Zhao Guohui for two years, and everyone could see how good she was to Zhao Guohui.
"Goodbye, aunt." Zhou Jiasheng finally came to his senses and followed his sister's steps and words. From the moment he entered the house until now, Zhou Jiasheng had been completely bewildered. He couldn't believe that his most admired uncle had been arrested by the police.
In the eyes of children, police officers in uniform represent justice. Conversely, people who are arrested by police officers are "bad guys" to children, and Zhou Jiasheng is no exception.
Seeing his uncle, a kind man, being taken away by the police, Zhou Jiasheng's young heart was deeply shaken. Are the police good or bad? This question kept swirling in Zhou Jiasheng's mind.
After Xu Liqin walked out of the house, she began to run. Instead of returning to the supply and marketing cooperative, Xu Liqin went to her parents' home.
Xu Liqin's home was quite far from her parents', almost across half of Sanhe Town. She kept running, taking small steps, until she ran faster and faster. Fifteen minutes later, she stood at the door of the Xu family's house.
Looking at the two dilapidated mud houses at her mother's house, Xu Liqin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Guohui's arrest by the police had frightened Xu Liqin. She was exhausted from running just now.
Xu Liqin had been feeling very sore and weak these past few days, and she lacked the energy to do anything. It was okay at work, as her colleagues looked after her, so she didn't have to work hard. The sprint just now had exhausted Xu Liqin, and now that she had stopped, she was gasping for air, feeling a dry pain in her throat.
Xu Liqin was subconsciously afraid that this outcome was caused by her family. If Zhao Guohui was really sent to prison because of her negligence, Xu Liqin felt that even if she died immediately, it would not be enough to atone for her sins.
The Xu family has only two rooms. The kitchen separates half of the room for the old couple and their daughter Xu Lifang. The other half is divided into two halves. The eldest son Xu Dafu and his family live in one half, and the youngest son Xu Erwang lives alone in the other half.
When Xu Dafu first got married, the distribution of the house was correct. The Xu family had enough space to live in two rooms. But as Xu Dafu's sons and daughters were born one after another, it seemed that there was not enough space for them.
Xu Dafu's wife, Wu Dani, is a hot-tempered woman. Since her own house is not big enough for her, she has set her sights on the half-room of her brother-in-law Xu Erwang.
Less than eight years after Wu Dani married, she had already given birth to two sons and a daughter for Xu Dafu. Wu Dani considered herself a major contributor to the Xu family, speaking with a loud voice and not afraid to ask the old couple anything.
Among the four brothers and sisters in the Xu family, Xu Erwang is the youngest. In the Xu family, the patriarch Xu Laolai ranks first in status, and Xu Erwang ranks second.
Xu Erwang is not someone to be trifled with. He knows that his parents are incompetent. His half house was given to him by Xu Laolai when Xu Dafu got married. This half house will be his capital for Xu Erwang to marry in the future.
Wu Dani wanted the two children to live with Xu Erwang in his half of the house, but Xu Erwang, of course, refused. He was sixteen years old and would be getting married in a few years. It was easy for his nephew to move in, but asking him to move out? Don't be ridiculous. Given Wu Dani's tendency to make things unreasonable, that would be an extremely difficult thing to do.
Wu Dani wanted to move, but Xu Erwang refused to let her. The Xu family had already had several arguments about the house.
Mother Xu had no choice but to turn her attention to her eldest daughter, Xu Liqin, who was already married. Xu Liqin and Zhao Guohui's house in Sanhe Town was spacious enough to accommodate all three nephews and nieces.
Of course Xu Liqin refused. Even when Xu's mother said that her nephew Xu Xudong living in Xu Liqin's house would help her "find a son", Xu Liqin refused to give in.
Xu Liqin knew that Zhao Guohui didn't like her being too close to her parents' family. After receiving her salary, Xu Liqin would buy some things and go back to her parents' home. Zhao Guohui turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it. If she let her nephews and nieces live in her home, Zhao Guohui would definitely be furious.
Xu Liqin was standing outside the door, catching her breath. Xu Lifang went out to take out the trash and happened to see her. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister, aren't you going to work today?"
