Aunt Cai and the others were all loud, and once they shouted, the others in the compound soon knew about it.
Everyone was talking about it.
"This is strange, no one has ever lost clothes in the compound!"
"That is to say, the wind was not strong yesterday, could it be that someone's child took it to play with?"
In order to find out, each family went back to ask the children, but even the naughtiest children knew that clothes were not for playing with, as cloth was so expensive these days.
Besides, how could it be such a coincidence that all the underwear was lost.
Mrs. Lin was so angry: "If I knew who is so wicked, I would kill him first! I have worn those flowered underwear for many years. Although there are two holes on the buttocks, I am used to wearing them. Damn little thief!"
Everyone: "..."
Everyone looked at Mrs. Lin's face full of wrinkles and age spots, thinking, isn't this underwear thief too tasteful?
Tong Xuelu walked out of the house with a haggard look on her face: "Aunt Cai, what happened?"
Aunt Cai saw Tong Xuelu and asked curiously: "Xuelu, why didn't you go to work? Hey, what's wrong with your face? Why do you look not so well?"
Tong Xuelu nodded weakly: "I had a severe headache when I woke up in the morning, so I had to ask Jiaming to help me ask for leave from the factory. By the way, Aunt Cai, why are you all gathered here?"
In order to make herself look haggard enough to take sick leave, she didn't close her eyes all night last night and was now very sleepy.
Aunt Cai said a few words of concern to her, and then angrily told her about the missing underwear: "I don't know which wicked person would steal even underwear!"
Tong Xuelu pretended to be shocked: "Did he steal all women's underwear? Or both men and women?"
Aunt Cai was stunned for a moment when she heard her question, and then slapped her thigh and said: "Oh, I didn't think of it until you said it. He stole all women's underwear. There must be a second-rate person in this yard!"
Xu's mother also reacted very quickly: "Could the person who stole the underwear be that little bastard from the Tong family?"
When the others heard this, their faces suddenly became a little bad.
The people living in this yard are all acquaintances who know each other well. There has never been any dirty things like stealing women's clothes or peeping at women taking a bath, so no one thought about it at first.
After hearing what Tong Xuelu said, she felt something was wrong.
If there really was a scoundrel in this courtyard, there would be a lot of trouble in the future.
Mrs. Lin jumped up and scolded, "No, it must be him! Our clothes were never lost before he came, but they were lost as soon as he came. Who else could it be but him?"
It was rare for Xu's mother to agree with Mrs. Lin: "You are right, it must be because he was beaten by us yesterday and he is holding a grudge in his heart!"
Everyone thought it made sense.
"We can't just let this go. We have to report it to the Public Security Bureau!"
"We have to report it to the leaders and send all the Tong family members back home!"
Tong Xuelu looked incredulous: "How could this happen? Although my cousin Tong Yanliang touched the woman's buttocks, he already knew he was wrong. It definitely couldn't be him!"
Mother Xu cried out: "How could we forget such an important thing? That damn bastard did such a wicked thing. Needless to say, he must have stolen the underwear!"
Tong Xuelu's face became even more panicked: "No, everyone listen to me, my cousin Tong Yanliang is not that kind of person..."
Aunt Cai said: "Xuelu, I know you are kind-hearted, but you really don't judge people well!"
"After the gang from your hometown came, they just ordered you around like the landlords in the old society. I have to report this to the factory leaders!"
Others agreed with Aunt Cai's opinion.
"They either eat lavish meals or go to state-owned restaurants every day. They are landlords!"
"That's right. All the money spent is the pension of Tong Dajun and his wife. They don't feel bad about spending it, but their children don't get any benefits!"
Everyone became more and more angry as they talked. They immediately discussed who would report to the factory leaders and who would report to the public security bureau.
The fighting power of the aunts was very strong. After the arrangements were made, they immediately went their separate ways.
Tong Xuelu held Erkang's hand: "Aunties, don't leave. Listen to me..."
Aunt Cai waved her hand: "Xuelu, go back and rest. Don't worry about this matter."
Then she left without looking back.
Watching the backs of the people leaving, Tong Xuelu's mouth showed two faint pear-shaped swirls.
Make a fuss, the bigger the better.
**
A group of loud women came to the office, and the union chairman was annoyed by the noise: "Could you have made a mistake? I heard that the child is less than fourteen years old, he should not be so brave!" "
He is very brave!" Aunt Cai shouted loudly, "Four people in our compound have had their underwear stolen. This has never happened before they came to our house!" When
the union chairman heard the word "underwear", the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely: "Okay, okay, don't make a fuss, I'll let the union call two people to go with you!"
When the two union officials and the public security comrades arrived at the family compound, a group of people from the hometown just came back from the state-owned hotel after having breakfast.
At this time, a group of people walked in, rubbing their bellies like a big man.
Sun Guilan picked her teeth with her tongue and said, "Mom, the meat buns today were really delicious. Let's go eat them tomorrow!"
Tong Erzhu said, "It's boring to eat meat buns every day. Let's eat dumplings tomorrow."
Xie Jinhua said generously, "What's the problem? Just buy both!"
Anyway, Tong Xuelu will give her the money if she runs out.
And she will get 2,000 yuan soon. Xie Jinhua feels that she doesn't have to live as miserably as before.
In fact, Tong Dajun and his wife would send half of their wages back home every month, and the Tong family has always lived better than others in the production team.
Unfortunately, people are greedy, and they have always resented Tong Dajun and his wife for not giving them their jobs. When
these words fell into the ears of the people in the compound, they became evidence of their corruption!
A male police officer saw this and frowned, "Which one of you is Tong Yanliang?"
Hearing the shout, the Tong family realized that there were quite a few people standing in the yard, and two of them were police officers.
The Tong family members were all frightened, especially Tong Yanliang, whose face turned pale.
He thought that Xu's mother and others had gone to the police to report that he had said he wanted to set fire to the house last night, and his legs began to tremble uncontrollably.
Tong Erzhu said, "Brother from the police, what are you looking for...looking for Tong Yanliang for?"
Brother?
The male police officer glanced at Tong Erzhu's dark face, which was not young at all, and his face became even darker: "Are you Tong Yanliang?"
Tong Erzhu: "I, I am not."
The male police officer frowned: "Why are you saying it? Tong Yanliang, who is Tong Yanliang, stand out right now!"
Tong Yanliang's hands also trembled, and then his whole body was shaking, just like the fallen leaves on the branches in autumn.
Suddenly, his mind went blank and he made a stupid decision -
he turned around and ran towards the door.
The male police officer was stunned for a moment, and immediately chased after him: "Stop right there!"
Before he ran to the gate of the compound, Tong Yanliang was knocked down by the male police officer, and his head was pressed to the ground.
Tong Xuelu was stunned by Tong Yanliang's series of stupid actions.
With her brain, it was such a waste to ask her to use her brain to set a trap for him.
The Tong family was frightened and stood there in a daze, not daring to move.
In the end, Sun Guilan's maternal love overcame her fear. She walked over tremblingly and asked, "Comrade Public Security, why are you arresting my son?"
The male police officer said with a dark face, "Is your son Tong Yanliang?"
Sun Guilan nodded, "Yes."
"That's right, someone in the compound reported that your son stole women's underwear and threatened to kill and set fire!"
Tong Yanliang was angry: "I didn't!"
The male police officer: "If you didn't, why are you running? You are obviously a guilty thief!"
People in the compound gathered around.
Xu's mother nodded fiercely: "Yes, if he didn't feel guilty, why would he run away! I think he stole the underwear!"
"You damn old woman, shut up!"
Tong Yanliang saw that it was Xu's mother who was talking, and thought of the beating he had yesterday. This new hatred and old hatred made him want to kill Xu's mother. Xu's mother
raised her chin: "Comrade Public Security, you heard it, this man has a grudge against me. Yesterday he said he would set fire to our whole family, and many people in the compound heard it!"
Tong Yanliang subconsciously denied: "I didn't!"
"Comrade Public Security, he is lying, I heard him say it yesterday!"
"I heard it too..."
People in the yard stood up and said one after another that they heard it.
Tong Yanliang's face turned green, and the faces of Tong's family members also turned green.
Tong Xuelu walked over, with a worried look on her face, saying, "Liangliang, if you confess, you will be treated leniently, but if you resist, you will be treated severely. You'd better tell the truth!"
When Tong Yanliang heard the word "Liangliang", he subconsciously felt a pain somewhere.
The female police officer who was taking notes said, "What the female comrade said is right. If you confess, you will be treated leniently, but if you resist, you will be treated severely. You 'd better tell the truth, comrade. Otherwise, if we investigate it later, the crime will be even more serious!"
Sun Guilan heard that the punishment would be even more serious, so she quickly persuaded her son, "Yanliang, just tell the truth!"
Tong Yanliang hesitated, "I said that, but if she hadn't wrongly accused me of touching a woman's butt, I wouldn't have said that. I just wanted to scare her!"
Xu's mother grasshopper The same person jumped up three feet high: "What a bullshit, you just touched a woman's butt!"
Tong Yanliang gritted his teeth in hatred: "I didn't, you old woman, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't forgive you!"
Sun Guilan jumped out to help her son: "Yes, if you keep talking nonsense, I will let the police take you back!"
Xu's mother: "Every word I said is true, I will still say so when I go to the police station, your son touched a woman's butt, and his scrotum was kicked in this way!" "
..."
Male police: "Be quiet! Touching a woman's butt has nothing to do with this case, no one should mention it again! Tong Yanliang, did you steal the underwear?"
Tong Yanliang's face was very ugly: "It wasn't me!"
Even if he wanted to steal underwear, he would not steal the underwear of a group of old women!
He is not sick!
Xu's mother: "Comrade Public Security, he must be lying again. Just now he denied that he wanted to kill and set fire, but now he admits it. This damn bastard is very cunning!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, the male public security officer interrupted them: "Everything should be based on evidence. We are going to search your things now!"
The Tong family members said they had no objection.
Tong Yanliang also had no objection. He had not done it, so what was there to be afraid of.
In order to show fairness, the search was handled by the female public security officer and the two cadres of the trade union.
Soon, they found four pairs of large flowered underwear from a travel bag, one of which had two holes on the buttocks, which was very consistent with the description of Mrs. Lin.
They walked out with the travel bag and asked the Tong family members: "Whose travel bag is this?"
The Tong family members looked at each other and did not say a word.
When Tong Yanliang saw the travel bag, his heart started pounding and he felt something was wrong.
Suddenly, Tong Jiaxin squeezed out of the crowd and pointed at Tong Yanliang and said, "It belongs to my cousin! He bought it from the supply and marketing cooperative the day before yesterday!"
Tong Yanliang gritted his teeth secretly, wishing he could beat him up!
But being stared at by two police officers, he could only nod and admit, "The travel bag is mine."
The female police officer cursed her for being shameless in her heart, and then took out four pairs of underwear from the travel bag: "Come and see if this is the underwear you lost?"
Mrs. Lin's torn underwear was the easiest to identify. She held her own underwear and was as excited as if she had found a long-lost relative.
"This one is mine! You just said you didn't steal it. If you didn't steal my underwear, how could it be in your travel bag?"
Tong Yanliang was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood: "Who would steal..."
But before he could open his mouth, a shadow rushed in front of him.
Without saying a word, she slapped him several times in the face!
"Why did you do this, Liangliang, you really disappoint me!"
Tong Xuelu covered her chest and looked at him in disbelief, and the "Liangliang" she shouted was almost heartbreaking.
Tong Yanliang was slapped so hard that he saw stars, his ears were buzzing, and his cheeks were stinging.
Bitch, she must have done it on purpose!
He wanted to rush over, but the male police officer held his arms tightly.
He wanted to speak, but the police officer didn't give him a chance to speak.
The male police officer said, "Take the people and evidence away first, and we'll deal with the rest when we get back!"
Tong Yanliang panicked and no longer cared about Tong Xuelu: "Dad, Mom, save me!"
"Comrade police, my son is innocent!"
Sun Guilan was so scared that tears and snot came out, and she chased after him crying.
Tong Erzhu glared at Tong Xuelu and then chased after him.
Tong Xuelu looked at Tong Yanliang who was being taken away and waved gently.
I shouldn't have used so much force just now, my hand hurts.
