Su Tong set the wedding date so hastily for two reasons: first, to put Chen Yuanyuan at ease, and second, to accommodate Su Ruyi's schedule.
The next morning, Su Ruyi came to find Chen Yuanyuan and took out a large number of Haicheng-specific coupons from her bag. In addition to grain coupons, oil coupons, cloth coupons, and snack coupons, there was also a large stack of industrial coupons: "I have some things to do these two days and I have to leave. You and Lili can make a plan. These coupons can be used to purchase some things and for the wedding!"
Su Tong asked curiously, "Where are you going?!"
Su Ruyi said, "Su Dazhi sent me several letters asking where Su Jin went. I need to go and tell him the whereabouts of his precious eldest son."
"You're going to Su Family Village!?" Su Tong and Chen Yuanyuan asked in unison.
Immediately, Chen Yuanyuan grabbed her arm: "Ruyi, no, you can't go alone!"
Su Tong also said, "I'll go with you!"
Su Ruyi shook her head: "I'm just going to see my father and give him a message. You all focus on preparing for the wedding, don't worry about me!"
Hearing this, and recalling Su Ruyi's various methods, Su Tong was still uneasy: "When are you going? Fourth Brother will hire an oxcart to wait for you at the village entrance, okay?"
Su Ruyi thought for a moment and said, "Really, it's not necessary, Fourth Brother! I just want to say a few words to Su Dazhi. I'll tell the oxcart not to leave and to wait for me, okay?"
Wu Lili interjected, "Why don't I go with you? I'm quick-witted, and I can run really fast!"
Su Ruyi smiled:
"I know you're all worried about me, but I'm very strong!"
Fourth Brother knows that usually two or three people are no match for me.
Besides, what's so scary about going to your grandfather's house?
Don't worry, I'll talk to the driver I hired!
If I don't come out by then, he can call the police directly, okay?
Su Tong thought for a long time before finally nodding.
That afternoon, Su Ruyi took the company bus and left Haicheng.
After getting off the bus, she first went to the supply and marketing cooperative for a shopping spree, as usual, and then went to the state-run restaurant for a hearty meal.
By this time, it had already gotten dark.
Su Ruyi didn't hire an oxcart; instead, she took out her motorcycle from her spatial storage in a sheltered spot.
Motorcycles are much faster than oxcarts, and in less than half an hour, she arrived at the entrance of Sujiazhuang village.
Just as Su Tong and the other man had said, the corn stalks still hadn't been harvested.
Su Ruyi looked around to make sure no one was there, put the motorcycle into her spatial storage, took out a headscarf to cover her head and face, and walked into the village.
By this time, it was so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
She didn't go to the Su family's courtyard at all. Instead, she stopped a little girl sitting at her doorstep eating dried sweet potato and gave her a piece of candy: "Where does Gao San's brother live?"
Su Ruyi always felt that the matter of Gao Sange was not so simple, so she decided to investigate the truth.
Furthermore, Chen Yuanyuan is about to become her fourth sister-in-law, and a fourth sister-in-law is one of her own. It's unacceptable for her to bully Su Ruyi, one of her own people!
The little girl looked about seven or eight years old. She hurriedly stuffed the candy into her mouth; it was sweet.
She pointed out the direction carefully.
Su Ruyi took out another piece of candy: "Don't tell anyone you've seen me, or I'll give you another piece of candy."
The little girl immediately snatched the candy from her hand, her voice softening: "I've never seen you before!"
After saying that, he covered his eyes.
Su Ruyi arrived at the courtyard of the house the little girl pointed to, stood close to the wall, and probed the courtyard with her divine sense.
This is a small courtyard that looks dilapidated, but contains a wealth of secrets!
The six rooms were filled with supplies, with each room's kang (heated brick bed), qin (a type of heated brick bed), and cabinets crammed full.
There are two cellars in the house. The one under the kitchen is filled with radishes and potatoes, while the one under the main room is large and deep, filled to the brim, with hardly any room to step.
Su Ruyi roughly identified that the kangqin and the cabinet contained common supplies—cloth, canned goods, snacks, candy, as well as ready-made clothes, stationery, and some tin toys and women's face cream that were in high demand at the time.
The cellar was filled with wooden crates!
Su Ruyi probed the other exit of the cellar with her divine sense, only to discover that the exit was behind the pigsty!
Her consciousness penetrated deep into the wooden box—inside were brand new Butterfly sewing machines, all still unassembled!
Just as Su Ruyi had predicted, this was indeed Chen Weixing's hideout for selling stolen goods!
It's clear that two families live in this courtyard.
Both bedrooms were occupied by housewives with their young children.
The housewife and her daughters were doing needlework, while the sons were playfully fighting with each other.
Su Ruyi's consciousness locked onto the two men in the main room who were eating pig's head meat and peanuts while drinking wine.
These are clearly two brothers. The older one has gray hair at his temples and is very muscular and fierce.
The younger one, however, appeared very composed, but there was a sly glint in his eyes.
The young man, chewing on his meat, mumbled incoherently:
"Brother, don't worry. As soon as I hand over the materials, Chen Weixing will be shot immediately!"
That little bitch can't escape it either!
I, Gao Laosan, am always reliable in handling matters!
Brother, trust your brother! They're all here!
As he spoke, he patted his chest.
Su Ruyi frowned – if he calls himself Gao Laosan, then he must be Gao Sange!
Su Ruyi's consciousness moved to his chest and found several neatly folded papers there, covered with dense writing and many red fingerprints.
Su Ruyi had an idea. Taking advantage of him taking another sip of wine, she moved the papers into her spatial storage.
The older man sighed, "It's not that I don't trust you, brother. But I still feel uneasy letting that little bitch get away! Sigh! My arms and legs are getting old, otherwise, how could she have escaped?!"
Su Ruyi clenched her fists in the darkness.
This person is Gao Erge!
She flashed into the space, flipped open the few papers, and read them through.
It's a whistleblower letter with a real name!
The signatures were from a total of seven employees of the supply and marketing cooperative!
This is truly evidence that could solidify Chen Weixing's reputation!
Su Ruyi looked at it carefully again—this evidence not only could not kill Chen Weixing, but also confirmed that Chen Yuanyuan was involved in the sale of stolen goods!
Furthermore, the location of the warehouse where Chen Yuanyuan hoarded supplies was described in great detail!
The address is in the suburbs of Haicheng!
Su Ruyi's scalp tingled.
These two brothers are too ruthless!
Chen Weixing was still inside, eagerly waiting for his "brother in arms," Gao San, to rescue him!
Meanwhile, Gao Sange was plotting how to ruin Chen Weixing's family!
At this moment, Brother Gao said again, "Their family has a son they had late in life, we can't keep him! Otherwise, when this kid grows up and we're all old, we won't be able to stop him when he comes to kill us!"
