Chapter 81 Good Days
The Zhao siblings successfully met in the Revolutionary Committee's warehouse.
At Zhao Zhaodi's strong request (making a scene), the brother and sister lived opposite each other. They could chat through the door and windows, and they were given steamed buns at mealtime. The brother and sister were very satisfied.
"Sister, isn't this the life I dreamed of when I was a kid? No need to work in the fields, the house doesn't leak, there's food to eat on time, and I can live with you. It's like a fairy tale. Hehe, do you think we can live here until the New Year?"
Zhao Zhaodi opposite was lying in a straw nest, weaving a straw mat with straw in her hands. She was so fast that she left an afterimage. Her brother's bed was like a pig trough. This grown man couldn't even build a nest. She had to weave a mat for her brother before dark.
"We should enjoy our little life. I haven't had such a leisurely time in years. Let's just relax here for a few days. I just don't know how your brother-in-law is doing. I don't know if that idiot can succeed."
Zhao Jinguo held a straw stick in his mouth and imitated his sister in weaving straw. "Sister, you are right. Brother-in-law is not as smart as you. Look at the good life we have now. It's so beautiful."
"Of course not. If your brother-in-law had half the brains I have, he would have been enough."
Zhao Jinguo deeply agreed. "The brains of our Zhao family are unmatched in this area. All they do is work hard at farming."
"That's right, our Jin Kingdom is still smart."
"hey-hey"
The man with red armbands guarding the two men couldn't stand it anymore and silently took two steps away, fearing that they would be infected by these two idiots.
A man who made himself a member of the Revolutionary Committee
One of them secretly entered the Revolutionary Committee
Two really smart people
police station
The Ye family rushed to the police station and asked the investigators to arrest the murderer who hurt Ye Ling as soon as possible.
Ye Dajun went to the reception room to inquire about Ye Ling's affairs
"Comrade, how's your investigation going?"
"Please take a seat, fellow. We've held a meeting at the bureau to discuss this. If the two children you claim are indeed the perpetrators, they are too young to handle the case. The most we can do is apologize to your family and compensate for some of the medical expenses. Are you sure you want to pursue this matter further?"
Jin Fenglian didn't understand what he meant. She rubbed her hands and asked nervously, "Comrade, those two almost beat my child to death, and we can't deal with them?"
The case officers understand their feelings. Who doesn’t feel sorry for their own children? But there is nothing they can do.
"Yes, they are not old enough to be held criminally responsible. Forcing a case will not lead to any results. The most they can do is compensate your family for medical expenses."
Jin Fenglian's heart, which had been full of enthusiasm all the way, suddenly fell. How could such a thing be true?
Old Mrs. Ye woke up at noon. Originally, Ye Dajun asked her to rest at home, but the letter from her precious grandson was snatched away by a man named Jia. How could Old Mrs. Ye swallow this and insisted on coming with him.
"Boss, let's file a case."
Ye Dajun turned around and asked his mother what she meant. "But filing a case is pointless, Mom."
Old Lady Ye's cloudy eyes flickered with a faint light, strong and determined. "Stand! Even if it's useless, we must let them know our attitude. We will not admit defeat."
Jin Fenglian agreed with Old Lady Ye's opinion, "Okay! Big Brother, let's listen to Mother. No matter if it's useful or not, let's just establish it first!"
Ye Li chimed in, "Dad, let's make him stand up. It's worth it if we make the Cao and Zhang families suffer for a few days."
The case filing process was very quick and was completed in a short while.
The case officer told Ye Dajun
"Although our case has been filed, we still have no direct evidence to prove they were the perpetrators. It's been so long, and we went to the scene that day, but there were no clues. Think carefully about what we're missing."
Ye Xiuhong said from behind, "Isn't it okay for our children to identify them?"
"No, I need evidence."
This really stumped the Ye family. Where could they find evidence?
The group returned home dejected.
Zhao Jinguo from the neighboring Qianshan Village
Xiangying saw that it was getting dark, and her lazy husband still hadn't come back. She couldn't help but feel anxious.
Although she usually looked at Zhao Jinguo with all her eyes, she still cherished him in her heart, otherwise how could she let him lie at home for so many years?
It’s almost time for dinner, how could such a glutton not go home!
"No, I have to go to the Ye family to find someone. I hope your father doesn't fall into any ditch."
Xiangying served her son Zhao Zilong a meal and put on her cotton jacket to go out.
"Mom, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
"Go find your father. He went to find your aunt in the middle of the day. It's already this late and he still hasn't come back. I'm so worried. You eat by yourself and I'll go to the Ye family to check on them."
Zhao Zilong was worried about his mother going out alone at night. It was pitch black outside, so how could she see anything? He quickly ate a few mouthfuls of food and said, "Mom, wait for me. I'll go with you."
The Zhao family's mother and son traveled in the dark at night, stumbling along the way, and it was already 11 o'clock in the evening when they found the Ye family.
It was late at night and the Ye family was asleep. Xiangying was worried that the noise of banging on the door would be too loud and would be known to the whole street, which would have a bad impact.
"Long, go over the wall and ask your uncle to open the door."
"Okay, Mom, wait a moment."
In the countryside, the courtyards are all covered with earthen walls that are one person high. Young men and women can just climb over the walls to get in. Every family is poor, and thieves are too lazy to climb over.
"Boom"
Zhao Zilong supported himself with his arms, exerted force on his biceps, and easily climbed into Ye Dajun's house. He brushed the dirt off his hands and was about to go to the window to call his uncle.
Before he took two steps, something suddenly bit his ankle, and a sharp pain instantly rushed to Zhao Zilong's forehead.
“Ouch!!! What the hell! It hurts!!”
Xiangying, who was waiting at the door, was almost frightened by her son's scream.
"What's wrong, son? Son! Squeak! Did you step on a mousetrap?"
In the yard, Zhao Zilong gasped in pain and looked down in the moonlight to see what was on his leg.
Under the moonlight, a large white goose stretched its neck and bit Zhao Zilong's heel tightly, with its cheeks puffed up, showing no sign of letting go.
Ye Dajun slept uneasily tonight, tossing and turning, worried about the Cao family's affairs. He didn't know what had happened to his wife. He had to go see her tomorrow and make sure she wasn't fighting with anyone there.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a heart-wrenching scream in the yard.
"Who! Don't run!!"
Ye Dajun lifted the quilt and rushed into the yard barefoot without even bothering to put on his shoes. There was still 900 yuan sent by his second brother's family on the beam of his house. He was afraid that he would attract thieves!
In the yard, Zhao Zilong heard his uncle's voice, and for the first time, it sounded so beautiful. "Uncle, it's me! I'm a dragon! Come and save me! Your goose is crazy!"
Ye Dajun ran to the yard and took a look in the moonlight. It was Zhao Zhaodi's nephew Zhao Zilong.
"Long, what's wrong with you? Dabai, stop biting me. I'm not a thief. Let go of me."
Dabai was very human-like. Seeing that his master asked him to let go, he reluctantly let go of Zhao Zilong's heel, turned around, twisted his fat body, and went back to the goose pen with a "ga ga ga" sound.
"It hurts so much, ouch my ankle."
Zhao Zilong quickly squatted down and hugged his ankle which had survived the goose bite. He touched his ankle and estimated that it had swollen into a big bun.
When Ye Dajun heard Xiangying banging on the door outside, he didn't have time to care about his nephew who was holding his ankle on the ground, and hurried to open the door for Xiangying.
"My sister-in-law is here."
After removing the bolt, Xiangying pushed the door open impatiently. In the darkness, she saw her son squatting on the ground crying out in pain.
Ye Family Hall
Ye Dajun lit the kerosene lamp, and Ye Li found a bottle of medicinal wine to apply to Zhao Zilong's feet.
"Ouch! It hurts, sister, please be gentle."
Xiangying wrung a piece of cotton cloth and handed it to Ye Li, looking at her son's ankle which was swollen like a pig's foot with heartache. The blood bruises under the skin were purple and black, and it was obvious that the goose had bitten him dead.
"What kind of goose is this? Look how it bit our dragon. Kill it right away!"
This is Ye Ling’s favorite goose, how can she kill it?
Ye Dajun changed the subject and asked, "Why are you here in the middle of the night?"
Xiangying then remembered why she came to the Ye family
"Yes, I'm here to look for my husband. He came to see my elder sister at noon, but he's still nowhere to be seen until evening. Isn't he here?"
"We all went to the police station at noon and he was not at home. Jin Guo came."
Looking at Ye Dajun's confused expression, Xiangying's blood froze for a moment.
Trembling, he said, "He, he, you haven't seen him?"
