Previously, the cases involving Zhao Xiaoli, Zhao Guohua, and Liu Hongshao were all settled with compensation. This time, the same approach will be taken. It is believed that Li, the educated youth, is sensible and will understand the difficulties faced by the cadres.
Xu Youcai opened his mouth hesitantly, but before he could speak, Liu Qingju shouted, "They've already beaten my son, what compensation do they want? My son is injured like this, I'm the one who wants compensation from them!"
Her son failed to get what he wanted and was beaten up like this. How could Li Xiyue have the face to ask for compensation?
"Then there's nothing to discuss." Chen Yu shrugged. "Let's call the police."
"Comrade soldier, wait a moment." Xu Youyongshun stopped Chen Yu, who was about to leave. "Our cadres are here to talk to them. Please sit down, have a glass of water, and wait a moment."
Chen Yu snorted and sat down on the stool. The women's director, Gao Xiuzhi, quickly brought him a glass of water, smiling apologetically.
“Youcai, you are the head of the family, you should make the decision. Are you really going to listen to your wife and send your son to prison?” Xu Yongshun pulled Xu Youcai aside to persuade him.
Xu Youcai looked at his son on the ground. This was his only son, and of course he couldn't go to jail. He gritted his teeth and said, "Secretary, I'll listen to you."
Xu Yongshun breathed a sigh of relief. "That's right. It's us men who know the bigger picture. Those women are all talk and no action. They don't know anything."
Xu Youcai took out his money and said, "Secretary, this is all the money I have."
"This isn't enough." Xu Yongshun looked at it and thought, "This is far from enough."
Xu Youcai said with difficulty, "As you know, Dazhong is a womanizer and likes to gamble every now and then. It's just me and that stupid woman working at home. How much money can we possibly save?"
He had to painstakingly scrape these together; if his son found out, he'd squander them all.
“But that’s far from enough,” Xu Guoqiang said, holding up two fingers. “What’s the big deal about being a hooligan? Two yuan is all it takes?”
Does he really think Li Xiyue is short of his two yuan?
"What should we do then?" Xu Youcai really had no money.
Seeing that he was sincere in wanting to settle the matter, Xu Yongshun thought for a moment and suggested, "How about this, the team committee will pay you a sum of money, you can write an IOU, and it will be deducted from your future work points."
Xu Guoqiang had no objection, and the other cadres also agreed.
Regardless, let's suppress this matter for now and not actually report it to the police.
Xu Youcai then asked, "How much do you want to borrow?"
“It has to be at least this amount.” Xu Yongshun held up one hand.
Xu Youcai: "Five yuan?"
"Fifty." Xu Yongshun rolled his eyes at him. What are you thinking?
Xu Youcai's face changed. "Fifty yuan? How many years would it take us to pay that off?"
“You’re thinking too narrowly,” Xu Yongshun advised. “Isn’t your Dazhong worth fifty yuan?”
Xu Youcai certainly felt that his son was worth more than fifty, but he also felt bad about giving away so much money to others.
“You’re rich, do you think Li, the educated youth, needs your fifty yuan?” Xu Guoqiang said, “What he wants is your attitude, your attitude of admitting your mistake.”
Xu Yongshun agreed, "Yes, Li Zhiqing is not short of money."
“If your family pays the money, Li, the educated youth, won’t pursue the matter. It’s good for you and for our brigade,” Xu Dawei also advised.
Xu Youcai was surrounded by cadres who took turns trying to persuade him, and he finally gave in.
"Fifty yuan is so much, why doesn't Li Xiyue just rob someone?" Liu Qingju immediately objected when she heard that she had to pay fifty yuan in compensation.
Xu Youcai, unable to contain his anger, slapped her, saying, "Stupid woman, you have no right to speak here."
Liu Qingju was beaten so badly that she fell to the ground, covering her face and sobbing.
Their son got beaten, and the Liu family ended up with a mountain of debts. They really tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead, and that bitch Li Xiyue got away with it all!
