Chapter 78 Search for me!
There was a lot of noise in the room, and Zhao Zhaodi's shouting and cursing could be heard from time to time.
When Jin Fenglian was thinking about how she should join Zhao Zhaodi's opera troupe, Captain Qin arrived.
Jin Fenglian finally found her partner!
He pushed away Director Jia who was blocking the door, staggered out, and looked at Captain Qin with a curved eye, and tears flowed like a faucet.
"Captain, you're here! Why is our family so miserable? First, Xiaoling was beaten for no apparent reason, and now the second child that my mother-in-law has been waiting for all her life is gone, leaving behind only this little thing. Why won't we let this suffering go? Captain, help us!"
Captain Qin heard Zhao Zhaodi's loud and aggressive voice from the entrance of the alley. It was as loud as a fighting cock and she didn't look like she was at a disadvantage at all.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the miserable and crying Golden Phoenix Lotus, looking so weak that she seemed to be about to fall down in the cold wind.
Is this Ye family a theatrical troupe? They play shrews inside and resentful women outside?
"If there's any problem, the leader will investigate it. Please stay aside for now."
Captain Qin said something to Jin Fenglian and then hurried into the house to see what was going on.
On the way here, he understood what was going on. The Cao family and Director Jia were cousins. The Cao family suffered a loss in the matter of Ye Ling and could not swallow it, so they came to seek revenge. Unfortunately, the former daughter-in-law of the Ye family was indeed a capitalist lady, and it would be difficult for Director Jia to hold on to this tail.
Captain Qin walked into the main room and saw Zhao Zhaodi rolling on the ground throwing a tantrum. He was speechless for a moment and turned to talk to Director Jia.
"How come Director Jia is free to come here today?"
Director Jia was almost hurt by Zhao Zhaodi, and said angrily
"Of course, we came here because we received reports from the public about the Ye family's improper conduct."
Captain Qin was of course speaking for the Ye family. "Director Jia, we can't just listen to one side of the story. The Ye family came from a poor peasant background. Generations of them have been farmers. They have a decent style and work hard. They have a good background. How could there be any problems with their style?"
Director Jia raised his left eye, pointed around the room, and said playfully, "Captain Qin, are you blind? What's in this room? Are these things ordinary people use?"
Zhao Zhaodi, who was sitting on the ground, was unhappy and clapped her hands on the ground.
"What do you mean by 'common people's stuff'? We common people have to wear rags, right? We can't even live a good life for a few days!"
"Okay, Dajun's wife, please stop talking."
Captain Qin gestured to her, asking her to be quiet. Didn't she see that Director Jia came with bad intentions today?
Director Jia didn't want to waste time talking to them. He came to Xiahe Village today specifically to vent his anger on behalf of his cousin and nephew, and to punish the Ye family who had married a capitalist's daughter and was living a petty-bourgeois lifestyle!
"Stop talking nonsense! Nothing you say today will help. The Ye family married the daughter of a capitalist. This is a fact! Hurry and hand over the capitalist's dirty goods. Otherwise, if I find out, I won't be so easy to deal with!"
After Director Jia finished speaking, he ordered the staff he brought to check the things in the room, including the pen in Ye Dajun's hand, the craft teacup beside Old Lady Ye's bed, the four high-end gift boxes on the cabinet, and even the chocolate that Wen Hai ate in bed. Everything was confiscated.
"Woo woo, that's the candy for me and Sister Xiaoling!"
Wen Hai was unhappy. He had never eaten this kind of black candy before and had always been reluctant to eat it. But today he couldn't resist and had just eaten two pieces when all ten boxes of black candy were snatched away.
"Little Hai, be good. Grandma will get you some malt sugar later."
Old Mrs. Ye held Wen Hai in her arms on the kang and coaxed him gently. She didn't feel bad about these things. Xiaoling had finished her medical treatment, so she could take them away. It was enough for the letter written by her beloved grandson to stay with her.
The Ye family was unable to resist and could only watch as boxes of things in the house were carried out. Soon the house was emptied.
"That's unjust! Baldy Jia, you're nothing but a bandit! You'll be struck by lightning sooner or later! My family married Bai Wei over ten years ago, and you're here to settle the score after more than ten years! Do you think you can even count?"
Seeing that she couldn't escape, Zhao Zhaodi simply started cursing at Director Jia, not noticing the look Jin Fenglian was giving her.
Director Jia has become immune to her scolding. He can't let Zhao Zhaodi, a poor peasant, be paraded through the streets. Does that mean he has no other tricks?
"I'm a bandit? Fine, now that you say so I have to give it a try. Search the house again!"
"Hey! You can't go into my mother's house!"
Ye Dajun, who had been silent all the time, saw two people with red armbands going into Old Lady Ye's room and hurried to stop them.
His mother's illness has been getting better and worse lately, how can he stand the stimulation of a house search!
oops!
Jin Fenglian, who was behind him, stamped her feet secretly and quickly stepped forward to grab Ye Dajun.
"Brother, let them search. Our house is full of broken pots and pans, so what can't be searched?"
Jin Fenglian screamed in her heart, why are the boss and his wife such a pair of idiots!
Zhao Zhaodi pissed off Director Jia, and Ye Dajun rushed to stop her. Was he afraid she wouldn't know there were some goodies in Old Lady Ye's house? The 900 yuan was hanging on the beams!
Sure enough, when Director Jia saw Ye Dajun’s nervous look, he became even more certain that there were good things in the house.
"Why are you so panicked if there's nothing good? Search this old lady's room carefully for me!"
Ye Dajun didn't understand yet and said confusedly, "My mom is a good person."
Jin Fenglian held her forehead with her hands. What kind of fools are these Ye family members? Her mother-in-law was right. Their brains are all bigger than the second son's.
Old Mrs. Ye was holding Wen Hai on the kang, quietly watching five or six people rummaging around in the hut and finding seven shawls wrapped in platinum cardboard boxes in the closet.
"Director, do these scarves count?"
The red armband opened a platinum gift box and trotted over to take out a shawl to show Director Jia.
Director Jia picked it up and took a look. The scarf was soft and delicate, with a warm color. When unfolded, it was almost one meter wide. It was obvious that it was not something that could be found in Qing County.
"Of course it counts. Register everything. Keep searching. Check the cracks in the walls, the bedding, and everything else."
"Are you crazy? You want to turn over my mother's mattress? Will you be responsible if it freezes in the middle of winter?"
Ye Dajun couldn't help but retort.
Director Jia thought, look, there must be something good here.
With his hands behind his back, he walked steadily to the edge of Old Lady Ye's bed. Director Jia forced a fake smile and said, "Old Lady, I'm so sorry. I'll ask them to be more efficient. Could you please come down first?"
Director Jia was being polite, but in reality he did not give Old Lady Ye the right to choose. He waved his hand and asked someone to carry Old Lady Ye off the kang.
"Ouch, my chest is hurting, hurry up, boss, ouch, I can't breathe,"
Ye Dajun came up quickly and helped Old Lady Ye to massage her chest.
"What's wrong, Mom?"
Before the men with red armbands could reach out their hands, Old Lady Ye covered her chest and groaned non-stop. Unfortunately, her acting skills were not as superb as her daughter-in-law Jin Fenglian's. Director Jia could tell at a glance that she was pretending to be sick.
"Stop pretending! Lift her down!"
Several people with red armbands lifted Old Lady Ye off the kang. Director Jia couldn't wait to turn over the quilt on the kang, and a piece of paper fell out from under Old Lady Ye's pillow.
Director Jia bent down and picked it up
"That's my grandson's letter, not what you're looking for! Put it down for me, old woman!"
Old Mrs. Ye, who had been good-tempered all her life, got angry this time. With the support of Ye Dajun, her body was shaking with anger.
Director Jia didn't have time to pay attention to her and quickly flipped through the letter to find something to hold against the Ye family.
There were only four lines of content on the smooth letter paper. Apart from saying that Ye Laoer had died, it also asked Old Lady Ye to supervise the division of things. Director Jia read it all at a glance in just a few seconds.
When Ye Lin wrote the letter, he was worried that something might happen, so he avoided all sensitive words and did not mention the bank draft.
Director Jia didn't expect that this piece of letter paper was so finely crafted and definitely not from the Ye family. There was nothing useful on it.
Holding the principle that it is better to kill a thousand people by mistake than to let one go, he handed the letter to the red armband behind him.
"Take them all back and check them again carefully!"
Seeing that her precious grandson's letter was about to be confiscated by the Revolutionary Committee, Grandma Ye's adrenaline surged and she stood up on her own without anyone's help.
"You dare!"
Before she could say the second sentence, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"mom!"
"grandmother!"
"Oh my god!"
