In the end, everyone started shouting, wanting Zhang Caifeng to come back and be the captain.
Secretary Zou saw her holding a bowl and dividing the meat equally among Zhang Caifeng: "What do you think?"
Zhang Caifeng: "What am I looking at? I'll never be the team leader again. I've dedicated myself to the welfare of the production team, but what's the end result? Honestly, now everyone has meat to eat and thinks I'm doing well, but who knows if something goes wrong again and everyone thinks I'm bad again. I won't do this!"
Many people tried to persuade her, but Zhang Caifeng still shook her head and went back with the meat.
At Yu Sui's house, Sun Yuying was queuing up to get meat. Yu Sui watched this coldly and followed Zhang Caifeng back silently.
On the way, Zhang Caifeng looked back at Yu Sui and couldn't help laughing: "Why don't you go home and eat meat? Why are you following me?"
Yu Sui also laughed: "When you're away for three days, you'll be amazed. I didn't expect Aunt Six to pull off such a big stunt with us right after she came home. I'll start by learning from her."
Zhang Caifeng: "You're such a good co-operator! I saw you helping me instigate Yu Liantao and the others to fight!"
Yu Sui raised her finger and said, "Shh, let's stop talking. Let's go back to your house and talk. I have a lot to tell you."
"Alas!" Zhang Caifeng sighed heavily. "Come on, actually, I have a lot to say to you."
The two of them hurried to Zhang Caifeng's house.
Zhang Caifeng's husband is very honest. He has been taking care of the children at home these days without any complaints. When he saw the pork brought back, he just took it silently without saying a word.
Yu Sui looked at the man who had quietly left and said to Zhang Caifeng, "You've been away from home for two months. Doesn't your sixth uncle blame you?"
"Strange. But he only said a few words to me, it wasn't that strange. Instead, he came to see me every two weeks and told me what was going on in the production team. So, I didn't lead everyone to do this as soon as I came back. I've been thinking about this for two months. How can I deal with these shameless people as soon as I come back?"
Zhang Caifeng said, making a knife-shaped gesture: "I've been waiting for this day!"
Yu Sui's smile widened and she gave a thumbs-up:
"Sixth Aunt, you're such a jerk! I heard the news in the north, and I was worried about you. You must be feeling really bad about this. You might even blame me, saying it was all because of me who pushed you to become the captain."
Zhang Caifeng smiled bitterly:
"You know what, at first, I really thought so. Isn't this all Xiao Yu Sui's fault? If you hadn't always said you wanted to start a factory, would I have stayed in the detention center? But, to be honest, living in the detention center was nothing to do, and gradually I figured it out.
People are like crops, like cotton. It won't grow big if it's crammed into a nursery shed. Only after being transplanted and weathering the vicissitudes of life will it flower and bear fruit. As for the incident at the factory, I'm not entirely without responsibility. The problem was indeed with the packaging, which was my responsibility. I didn't manage it well, so I should be punished. But I've learned a lot from this incident, so it's not a bad thing."
Yu Sui looked at Zhang Caifeng calmly, and felt only admiration in her heart. It was really rare for a rural girl to judge things so fairly when encountering things.
Yu Sui: "Although you are responsible, the Public Security Bureau shouldn't arrest you if they haven't found the real criminal."
Zhang Caifeng shook her head. "I can understand their actions. You don't know, it was a chaotic time, and the situation was quite serious. In the words of the general manager of the supply and marketing cooperative, our factory's incident caused a food crisis for the entire county. So many people were so scared that they ran to the supply and marketing cooperative to make trouble.
Someone has to take responsibility for this. After all, a life is at stake. I'm the factory director. If not me, who will? I was prepared to go to jail, but unexpectedly, Section Chief Meng from the Public Security Bureau came to the detention center yesterday to sign for my release.
Yu Sui also had doubts about this: "Yes, they released you. Did they prove that the criminal was caught?"
"yes."
"Yu Laojiu?"
"……yes."
Yu Sui sighed heavily: "Alas!"
Zhang Caifeng looked at her and asked, "Are you sad for him?"
"Why should I be sad? I'm just thinking about human nature. He only spoke out because you helped him so much. Otherwise, I think he would rather die than tell the police."
Yu Sui told Zhang Caifeng everything that happened in the past few days regarding Yu Laojiu, from his desire to hang himself to the vague mention of Old Octopus.
Zhang Caifeng also sighed. "Yes, Section Chief Meng said that Yu Laojiu first repeatedly asked the people at the Public Security Bureau if I would be released if he confessed everything. Only after he got a positive answer did he tell everything."
"Did he put the rat poison in Old Octopus's pocket?"
"Yes." Zhang Caifeng said this with a serious expression:
"He confessed that he had done hard labor in Shanghai when he was young, and that he had long known about Alzheimer's disease. So he was the first to notice that something was wrong with Old Octopus, and he wanted revenge. Because when they were young, Old Octopus had been having an affair with his wife. Did you know that?"
Yu Sui: "My mother once told me that adultery has always resulted in death."
Zhang Caifeng smiled bitterly:
"Well, that makes sense. Old Octopus is taller than Yu Laojiu, and Yu Laojiu couldn't beat Old Octopus when he was young, not to mention that Yu Laojiu was injured later. But a gentleman's revenge is never too late, and an old man's revenge is never too late, even twenty years. So, Yu Laojiu found that Old Octopus would forget things and his mind was not clear, so he felt that the opportunity had come.
Not only did he always instigate Old Octopus's daughter-in-law to kill Old Octopus, he also did it himself. He brought a packet of rat poison and poured it into Old Octopus's pocket when he wasn't paying attention, because he knew that Old Octopus had the habit of hiding things in his pocket and eating them secretly.
Unexpectedly, Yu Zhu had stuffed some candy into Old Octopus's pocket that day because she wanted Old Octopus to take over, then took it out, wrapped it up, and put it into the finished product. When Yu Laojiu saw this, he was almost scared to death. He explained that he had actually thrown away a lot of the candy that Old Octopus had wrapped that day, but unexpectedly, some were still missed, which led to the accident.
Yu Sui nodded:
"He deliberately concealed this from me at first, and I didn't think he was the one who did it. Later, when my mother brought up the story between him and the old octopus, I felt something was wrong. So, did he kill the old octopus?"
Zhang Caifeng: "That wasn't the case this time. It was Old Octopus's son and daughter-in-law who did it together. Because of the last incident where the factory worker found rat poison, Old Octopus was also questioned by the police. He already has Alzheimer's, and the police questioning was a shock, and his mind was even more unclear. He was rampaging around the house, not only stealing, robbing, and beating people, but he also reportedly tried to rape his daughter-in-law. So, do you think his son and daughter-in-law wouldn't hate her?"
