Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Hong Guo is so nice that she can agree with him on such a matter...
Jiang Hongguo waited anxiously in Uncle Changzong's office. She wondered what her second uncle wanted to check with Changzong. She said so firmly that the glass fragment scratched her neck. Her uncle should think that it was a dizziness in the chaos after her aunt confirmed it.
After a while, her uncle came over. Hongguo called him awkwardly. Her uncle was kind and treated her well, but she did not dare to take it lightly.
Unexpectedly, her uncle showed her a sketch of a loyal and honest middle-aged man, and said that after the suspect who had escaped was arrested, the suspect confessed that the man in the sketch destroyed the homemade weapons they had stored in the village. He also said that if it had not been for that man's destruction, the police would not have been able to successfully surround the group.
The police wanted to find out this chivalrous man who had helped so much and understand his motives, how he found the counterfeit village, and for what purpose he assisted the police.
Jiang Hongguo was so surprised: "Second uncle, why are you showing it to me? I don't know it."
In fact, she was extremely nervous. This was Changzong in disguise. There was no doubt that Changzong went to the fake village. Hongguo did not dare to let her uncle notice any clues.
Second uncle handed Hongguo a glass of water and told her not to be nervous. He said, "This person looks too much like a teacher at Changzong Primary School. He has been dead for more than ten years. I remember that this teacher was very kind to Changzong. Hongguo, have you seen this person near your home?"
How is it possible to see that? Changzong was pretending. He would wash his face and change his clothes halfway through.
Hongguo was also surprised that Changzong had disguised himself as a primary school teacher.
Hong Guo was really a little worried. She rubbed her arms and said, "Second Uncle, you said that Teacher Chang Zong had been dead for more than ten years. How could I have seen him? Don't scare me."
The second uncle hurriedly comforted him: "Hongguo, I not only asked you, but also asked the students and relatives of the deceased teacher who could be found. You don't have to be nervous."
He has been a teacher for so many years and has taught so many students. Even if he only looks for jobs in the provincial capital, it will still be a huge workload.
Hong Guo was surprised again: "Uncle, you are investigating a fake village case, hasn't the case been solved? Why are you looking for someone who helped?"
The second uncle smiled and said, "Because he is related to the case, we have to investigate the doubts."
Then the second uncle would definitely not be able to find out the truth. Hong Guo would not let the second uncle know Changzong's secret. She asked worriedly: "If we can't find out, will it affect the conviction of those who forged it?"
"That doesn't matter."
That's good. Hong Guo felt relieved. "Second Uncle, is there anything else?"
The rest was just chatting about family matters. Second uncle said that when Changzong came back, he would invite them to his house for dinner. Hongguo agreed but didn't specify a time. Perhaps second uncle was just being polite, so she was being polite too.
Hongguo thought a lot. Changzong was cautious, but how could he use the appearance of a deceased elementary school teacher? Could there be some hidden secret? He couldn't use that appearance next time.
Changzong said that it would take seven or eight days to deliver the goods to Guangdong. Only half of the time had passed. Unexpectedly, Duan Zhiqing had found out Hongguo's home address and came looking for him. Duan Zhiqing came less than half a day after Hongguo came back from her uncle's place.
He said there was a gathering of educated youth on Sunday, and Gu Changzong was also an educated youth, so he came to invite them, but Changzong was not at home, and he didn't want to go empty-handed, so he wanted to ask Hongguo to go.
"Hongguo, you know all of us educated youth, come over."
Hongguo knew all the names he reported. They were male and female educated youth who had gone to the countryside to work in the village. His father was very polite to them. He often gave them the cabbage and radishes that he couldn't finish eating from his private plots. His father could catch fish and would send them the fish twice a month. He was very good to them.
But no matter how good it was, this was a gathering of educated youth, and Hongguo was Changzong's relative. She would not go if Changzong was not there.
Hong Guo said, "You take the lead in the Youth Academy. Half of the twelve educated youth passed the exam and the other half are gradually returning to the city. In 1980, the city's economy was liberalized. You started early and have developed very well. Changzong was trapped in the countryside and started late. We only set up stalls in the county in 1983 and came to the provincial capital last year. We can't catch up with you. We won't go to the gathering you organized this year. We will go next year when we have developed better. Otherwise, Changzong will feel bad when he says we are at the bottom."
Duan Zhiqing felt uncomfortable: "Hongguo, we don't mean that. We won't look down on anyone."
Hong Guo said, "I know you don't think this way, but there will always be people who compare. Don't worry. We should be able to catch up with each other by next year. By then, we will be equal and we will be happy to chat. Don't you think so?"
Duan Hongwen did not force it, thinking of the past, he said: "Uncle Jiang used to be very good to us, Hongguo, you really don't have to be polite to me."
It is very good, but it also has some unspeakable purpose. Dad wanted to find a son-in-law for Hongguo who could return to the city, as a potential investment. In the end, none of them worked out, and finally he chose Gu Zhiqing who could not return to the city.
Hong Guo smiled and said, "You don't have to think about it all the time. My dad has been nice to so many people that I can't remember them all."
Duan Zhiqing still told Hongguo the place where they would have a gathering and dinner on the weekend, but Hongguo naturally would not go.
After waiting for another three or four days, Changzong still didn't come back. However, he called Sister Shan's house and said that he was going to visit Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and would be back in a few days.
Sister Shan was very envious when she heard this and said to Hongguo, "Changzong is a capable man, don't worry."
Hongguo was nervous. The last time Xiaosun went out, it took him twice as long to come back, and then something like that happened. Hongguo tended to overthink things, and she waited for another seven or eight days in fear. Finally, Changzong came back.
He brought back the refrigerator he had requested for Sister Shan's family, and also brought a set of plates and bowls as gifts, which made Sister Shan very happy.
He also brought an 18-inch color TV and placed it at home, saying that it was for Hongguo to watch: "Guoguo, this way, when I go out to drive the car, you can watch TV at home and you won't be in a hurry."
Last time, Sister Dan spent 1,600 yuan to buy a TV, and Changzong bought one too. So wasn’t this trip in vain?
"We still owe money. I can choose not to watch TV. I can buy it after I pay off the money."
Gu Changzong found another good way to make money this time, and he was very happy. He took out a stack of money and gave it to Hongguo, which was five thousand yuan: "Guoguo, after buying things, there is still so much left. Don't save it. Spend it when you want. I can still earn more."
Jiang Hongguo didn't dare to accept the money. She bought so many things and paid 5,000 yuan to her family. She couldn't think of any legal business that could make money this way. She was scared of the money. Gu Changzong didn't look scared at all. He looked like he had done something great and wanted to be praised by Hongguo.
Even though no one was home, he lowered his voice this time and said, "Guoguo, I went to Hong Kong and bought a stock with my boss's account. He was very happy to make money. After returning to Shenzhen, he gave me 5,000 yuan and bought a TV and these bags of things. I didn't spend half of it."
Including the transportation fee for the sports car, I can still pay home another 5,000.
There is no reason not to praise him for making so much money, but Hongguo was too worried. Changzong didn't have a Hong Kong identity card, so how did he get there? He had never heard of stock trading before, so he just bought a random stock and made money? Even if you learn now, you can't do it so quickly, or did he just get lucky and stumble across it?
Praise is still necessary. Hong Guo counted the money happily and said, "I bought a few antiques and gave them to Xiao Zheng, earning two thousand. Together with what you earn, it is enough to pay off the debt owed to Sister Shan and Grandma Kong. I am not anxious anymore."
After this trip, Gu Chang was more confident: "When the time comes to pay back the money, there will be more than this amount."
Hong Guo's heart ached, and she reminded him with another incident: "By the way, about ten days ago, your uncle came to see you, and I went. He showed me a sketch of your deceased elementary school teacher, which scared me. I said I had never seen it."
Gu Changzong immediately confessed, "Guoguo, I pretended to be the deceased teacher. When I was a kid, I came to my uncle's house to study. That teacher was a very nice person. Later, they said that he used the opportunity of tutoring to force students' parents. I didn't believe it. I wanted to use this incident to clear his name. I don't know if I can succeed. I didn't tell you in advance because I was afraid you would worry."
So that's what happened. Hongguo was worried for no reason. She hurriedly asked, "Why did you suddenly think of that teacher?"
Chang Zong said: "That day on the street, he saw his son being scolded and felt upset, so he made this ridiculous decision."
Chang Zong had more and more of his own judgment of right and wrong. Hong Guo was happy and encouraged him, "It's not ridiculous at all. Wait two days and then disguise yourself to scare the parent. If he admits it himself, he can clarify things for your teacher and his son won't be scolded anymore."
Gu Changzong was just planning to do this. As for the previous disguise incident, his uncle had conducted such a large-scale investigation, which must have caused a lot of rumors. If he tried to scare him one or two more times, it would surely work.
Hongguo is really nice. She even agreed to let him do this. Gu Changzong showed her the things he bought from Hong Kong. It was a big bag of diapers. "Guoguo, when I'm not home, I'll give these to the kid. You don't have to wash diapers."
Jiang Hongguo thought this was very rare. It was good, but too expensive. If Changzong wasn't so good at making money, she would not be willing to use it.
His teacher's work was done after careful planning, and he must have also thought carefully about how to make money in Shenzhen, so Hongguo didn't ask.
Changzong came back, and Hongguo asked him if he wanted to go to his uncle's house: "Uncle said that when you come back, he wants us to go over for dinner."
Gu Changzong had no intention of going at all: "It's not a festival, and there's nothing to do, so I won't go."
"By the way, Mr. Duan came to see me once and said that there was a gathering of educated youths. I said I would attend next year."
Gu Changzong was even more surprised than when he heard his uncle calling him to eat. His words were full of tension: "Guoguo, you have to be careful. He must have felt sorry for you because he saw how good you are. He used the excuse of looking for me because he actually wanted to see you, right?"
No, Hongguo was sure. Duan Zhiqing was a very goal-oriented person. Even the current Hongguo was not Duan Zhiqing's target. Only Changzong would care about her so much.
She smiled and told him not to think too much: "He is a leader who has been promoted all the way after graduating from college. He will only be attracted to girls of the same conditions. Don't go out and say nonsense, or people will laugh at him."
Changzong was very stubborn. It was normal for someone to admire Hongguo, who was so good. Moreover, it was Duan Zhiqing, whom he almost had. Gu Changzong had a deep sense of crisis and thought that the Duan guy was too bad. He decided to go to his uncle's house.
"Guoguo, I've thought about it and think that we should go to my uncle's house for a meal. I'll go find my uncle first and set a time, then we can go together."
Hongguo didn't know why Changzong changed his mind. He went to see his uncle and made an appointment for the two families to have dinner. Then his uncle found a clue about Changzong's elementary school teacher. Several people saw that he kept his appearance before death and appeared near the home of a parent of a student he had taught. Soon the parent had a mental breakdown and admitted that he had used moral issues to blackmail the teacher.
This incident was reported in the newspapers, but the uncle still couldn't find the person. Hongguo told Changzong not to disguise himself as anyone else recently, and only felt relieved after throwing the things into the stove and burning them.
