Chapter 2005: The Eve of School Opening 1
When it comes to the country, it is no longer a trivial matter.
Although Lu Jiang was not responsible for this matter, he always put national interests first. If an innocent person took his family savings abroad, he would naturally not interfere. However, this was Chen Aiguo who plundered the property of the country and even the people who were wronged and suffered in those years. He could not ignore it, so he hung up Huo Beiting's phone cleanly and transferred the call to Zhao Anbang.
Since it was not working hours, I called his home.
Unexpectedly, the person who picked up the phone was Uncle Xu. After much hesitation, Lu Jiang told him the results of Huo Beiting's investigation. "Although Xiaoxue and I respect you two very much, the matter involving Xu Lei is not a trivial matter. We must tell Lao Zhao to seize this opportunity and catch this person, so as to avoid losing control of Chen Aiguo's whereabouts."
"It's really a sin. Your aunt is right! We, the Xu family, are terrible at parenting!" Upon learning that his eldest son had unilaterally severed ties with him and his wife, Uncle Xu's heart, which had already been chilled, felt like it had fallen into an icy cave. He blinked his sore old eyes and said, "Comrade Anbang is working overtime. You can call him later. Xu Lei is indeed still in Huaihai City. He doesn't believe that we have lost the gold and jewelry. I guess he wants to get the old house and the compensation money if he can't get the gold and jewelry."
Lu Jiang felt a little comforted. What he feared most was that Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu would choose to cover up their son's crime even though they knew it. When it comes to family affection, there are very few people who can be impartial and selfless.
"Okay, I'll call him right away to prevent Xu Lei from running away."
Uncle Xu snorted, "He probably thinks that Huaihai City is thousands of miles away from the northwest and southeast, and there is no information between them. He doesn't know what he did in the northwest, and he is thinking about the money he hid back then, so he dares to show up in a swagger. He didn't achieve his goal, and he doesn't think we know his background, so he won't leave immediately."
"That being said, it's better to be careful." I felt at ease only when I caught the person.
On this point, Uncle Xu had to admit that Lu Jiang was right. "Well, I won't talk to you anymore. You can talk to Comrade An Bang and deal with him as soon as possible. Your aunt and I can live a peaceful life for a few more years."
After hanging up the phone, Uncle Xu's tears, which he had been holding back for a long time, finally flowed out.
Seeing her husband's turbid tears rolling down his wrinkled bronze face, Aunt Xu was anxious and angry, "Did Xu Lei do something bad again? You've been sad for so many days, and you're still so sad now."
Uncle Xu held her equally weathered hand and told her everything without hiding a single thing.
"Twenty years. It turns out that he has severed ties with us for twenty years. We just realized it now. It's a pity that we missed him and thought about him during these twenty years. We always gave him the first priority when we had something good to do. It's good that he was caught. He should be caught. Anyway, he is a bunch of bad thieves. Anyway, our daughter-in-law and grandchildren are not among them."
Speaking of her ex-daughter-in-law and grandchildren, Aunt Xu couldn't help but worry about them. "Have you asked about their news? Did they sneak into Hong Kong like that girl said, or are they still in the northwest?"
Uncle Xu slapped his forehead and said, "Jiang didn't tell me, so I forgot to ask."
"Then wait a moment, until Ajiang and Comrade Anbang have finished their business, then we'll call and ask him in detail." Aunt Xu's only hope for her grandchildren, who are upright and have a smooth life, is the shamelessness and despicableness of her unfilial son.
