Chapter 39
Crazy, this kid Lu Chen is really crazy, he is just like a bandit!
Once this matter is resolved, he will definitely not have any contact with Lu Chen again. By the way, he will also take this opportunity to expose Lu Chen's true face in front of outsiders and completely put him aside!
When he thought about severing all ties with Lu Chen in the future, Lu Dashan suddenly didn't think it was unacceptable to let them in.
At worst, he can just hide the money somewhere else after today!
At this moment, Lu Dashan had already forgotten about the withdrawal slip that was pressed at the bottom of the box, and was only thinking about solving the problem of Lu Chen as soon as possible.
So he walked in quickly, took his small box of money out of the closet, and opened it.
Lu Chen's attention was fixed on the closet as soon as he entered the room.
Before Lu Dashan and Jiang Guihua came back, Meng Yinyin and the others had already told him about the scene when Lu Xiujuan asked her parents to borrow money. They also knew that there was a withdrawal slip from the army in the small box.
That withdrawal slip belongs to his father and their whole family!
But it has been occupied by Lu Dashan for so many years.
At that moment, Lu Chen was not really angry. It was more like a feeling that the dust had settled, as if it was indeed the case.
So when Lu Dashan opened the small box, Lu Chen's eyes turned sharp, and before Lu Dashan and Jiang Guihua could react, he snatched the small box from his hand.
Lu Dashan was startled and immediately shouted.
"Lu Chen, what are you doing! Do you want to steal money? In broad daylight, you——!"
However, Lu Chen did not even look at him. Instead, he lowered his head and looked into the box, and accurately found the withdrawal slip.
Then, take it out.
The withdrawal slip was pressed at the bottom and had turned yellow due to being there for too long. The paper was fragile and Lu had to sink it very gently, otherwise he was worried that the paper might break.
But despite this, he moved quickly. After getting the important withdrawal slip, Lu Chen casually stuffed the box in his hand into Lu Dashan's arms and threw it away as if it were a worn-out shoe.
When Lu Dashan saw that his treasure box finally fell back into his hands and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he noticed the piece of paper in Lu Chen's hand, and his expression suddenly changed!
That paper, that paper!!!
That is the evidence of his withdrawal of money that year!
To be honest, he did not throw away the paper and other things at the beginning because he was obsessed with it. Just as Jiang Guihua said, if it were not for the pension from his brother, they might not have been able to earn so much money even if they worked as farmers in the countryside for their whole lives.
Therefore, this money can be regarded as a testimony to the peak of their lives, even though they did not earn the money themselves.
So, for the sake of vanity, the two of them kept the receipt that could have been processed.
As time passed, Lu Dashan and Jiang Guihua gradually forgot about the existence of this piece of paper. It was only now that Lu Chen found it that he remembered the existence of such a thing.
Once I realized what this thing was, panic and fear followed.
Because only he knows how much danger this thing will bring to him once it comes out!
"That's mine, Lu Shen, give it to me, give it back to me!"
At this moment, Lu Dashan had completely lost his mind, and there was only one thought in his mind, which was to get the withdrawal slip back and destroy it quickly!
He didn't even have time to regret why he had the guts to keep the paper!
Unfortunately, Lu Chen's strength and height were not comparable to his, and Meng Xuan was also present. He walked over and blocked Lu Dashan the moment Lu Chen got the things.
"What are you doing?"
Meng Xuan looked down at Lu Dashan, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth. It looked like he was smiling, but to Lu Dashan's eyes, that smile looked more like mockery.
What are you mocking?
Lu Dashan's mind was still confused and he was totally unable to think.
While Meng Xuan was helping to hold back Lu Dashan, Lu Chen had already quickly read all the words on the receipt.
After reading it, his expression didn't seem to change much, but his eyes had turned red.
He raised his head, held the paper carefully in his hand, and then looked at Lu Dashan.
The sound was as cold as snow falling in the cold winter moon.
"What's going on with the receipt?"
Lu Dashan knew that he had seen the information on the receipt clearly. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. His thoughts had stopped working and his mind was filled with the word "over".
"I ask you, what's going on!!!"
Even though he knew very well what was going on, Lu Chen still wanted to hear Lu Dashan talk about it in person.
Of course, he was not naively hoping that Lu Dashan would realize his mistake and come to his senses and apologize to him. He just wanted him to admit his crime and make it public.
Lu Dashan heard Lu Chen's words again, but still couldn't say anything.
Jiang Guihua next to him had almost the same expression as him. The couple never thought that something they had hidden for so many years would be revealed at this moment.
And their disaster was obviously not over yet, because just when Lu Dashan finally regained some rationality and was about to ask others to go out, when he and Lu Chen were talking alone behind closed doors as a family, the captain's anxious voice suddenly rang out outside the yard.
"Did you really see Lu Chen banging on Lu Dashan's door?"
"Really? I saw it with both eyes!"
"Yes, yes, Captain, who knows what's going on inside right now, you should go and try to persuade them!"
As they spoke, a group of people rushed towards Lu Dashan's house.
Then, I saw several people standing in Lu Dashan's room.
There was no fighting, nor any chaotic scenes, but the atmosphere was a little weird.
The captain's heart sank back into his stomach, but only half way.
He looked at Lu Chen and Lu Dashan who were facing each other, and finally chose to ask Meng Xuan who was standing aside.
"Comrade Meng, can you tell me what happened here just now?"
The reason why the captain chose to ask Meng Xuan was very simple. First, Meng Xuan had been here the shortest time, and logically speaking, he wasn't very familiar with anyone, so he shouldn't take sides.
As for the second reason, it is naturally because he is a soldier, and everyone will choose to trust him deep down.
Meng Xuan did not disappoint his expectations and explained the whole thing in an orderly manner, even telling him how he and Meng Yinyin "accidentally" found out that Lu Dashan had lent money to Wang Chengwu.
After hearing this, especially after hearing what list Lu Chen took from Lu Dashan's box, the atmosphere between the uncle and nephew suddenly became tense, and the captain's heart was lifted again.
He quickly thanked Meng Xuan, then walked to Lu Chen and Lu Dashan. Then, in front of Lu Dashan's desperate gaze, he patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and asked.
"Lu Chen, what is that thing in your hand? Can you show it to me?"
It took Lu Chen a long while to loosen his hand holding the receipt, then he hummed and slowly handed the receipt to the captain.
After seeing the receipt in his hand, the captain's expression changed several times, from disbelief to shock, then to anger, and finally he looked at Lu Dashan as if he were a beast or a scum.
Immediately afterwards, there was an angry roar.
"Lu Dashan! Are you still a human being?"
Those who brought the captain here urgently stood at the door and did not see what was written on the paper, but they could guess roughly what it was from the captain's angry expression at the moment. They intuitively felt that it must be something that should not be seen in public, and it was also something that was enough to ruin Lu Dashan's reputation.
At this moment, the captain was almost going crazy.
The recipient of the remittance on that receipt is the military, and the amount on it is really too large. It is so large that anyone with a brain will know that it is absolutely impossible for a farmer like Lu Dashan to earn that amount of money!
With the little money he earns from farming, he probably won't be able to save that much even if he farms for his entire life!
So those thousands of dollars, the pension that belonged to Lu Chen's father, the money he earned with his life, were taken away by Lu Dashan without a word!
And looking at Lu Chen's expression at the moment, I'm afraid he just found out about this money now!
In other words, the money was embezzled by Lu Dashan alone, and not a penny was given to Lu Chen!
This person calling him a beast is simply an insult to the beast!
The captain has never been so angry as he is now.
He held the receipt tightly in his hand, then spoke to Lu Dashan through gritted teeth.
"This is a serious matter. It's not just a problem for your family, it's also related to the reputation of our entire brigade!"
"So I will report the matter to the commune, or even to the town."
"Lu Dashan, take care of yourself."
Facing Lu Dashan's pleading eyes, the captain coldly announced the decision of this matter.
"Captain, things are not what you think. I, didn't..."
Of course Lu Dashan knew what this meant. Once the matter was exposed, he would be really finished!
No, you can't!
However, just as he was about to open his mouth to explain, Meng Xuan next to him suddenly spoke.
"Captain, there is one thing I haven't said yet, which is that I actually have another purpose for coming here this time, which is——"
"Representative troops, investigate this matter thoroughly!"
