Hearing this, He Daqing's mouth twitched. He suddenly realized his daughter was a bit devious.
"Let him out. Keeping him locked up isn't a solution!" He Daqing said.
He Yushui said, "That's good. Now that the die is cast, the pension group can't cause much trouble!"
After the two discussed, He Yushui found Director Li, and half an hour later, He Yuzhu was released.
Life inside was agonizing. After only a few days, He Yuzhu was unshaven and his face was full of the vicissitudes of life. His already forty-year-old face looked even older.
"Yushui, I knew you would come to save me!" He Yuzhu said happily when he saw He Yushui.
But the next second, his expression stiffened, and gradually, a look of anger appeared on his rigid face. He shouted, "He Daqing, how dare you come back? Why didn't you die in Bao City!"
He Yuzhu cursed and cried, as if he had suffered a great grievance, unleashing all the emotions of so many years.
He Daqing did not stop He Yuzhu from cursing. He patiently waited for him to finish, then slapped him directly.
"You little brat, have you gone against the heavens? I am your father!"
Seeing the tension rising, He Yushui immediately stood between the two.
"Silly Ge, calm down. You misunderstood Dad!" He Yushui said.
He Yuzhu still wanted to retort, but He Daqing slapped him, and that feeling of being dominated by He Daqing returned.
One must know that He Daqing was a proper martial artist, unlike Sha Zhu, who was a half-baked practitioner and only learned wrestling for a short period.
Sha Zhu had been disciplined quite severely by He Daqing in the past. Recalling those past moments, Sha Zhu was momentarily stunned.
"Brother, let's find a place to eat first. We can discuss the details while we eat!" He Yushui said.
...
Inside a state-run restaurant, Sha Zhu gobbled down a bowl of rice. After hearing He Yushui explain what happened, no matter how fragrant the rice or how delicious the braised pork, he completely lost his appetite.
He was utterly distraught, unable to believe that what He Yushui said was true.
"Why did Yi Zhonghai and Deaf Old Lady do this to me? I didn't do anything to them!" Sha Zhu asked blankly.
Recalling his past experiences, Sha Zhu couldn't believe that his tragic encounters at the time were all due to the two people he respected most.
"Why else? Because you're silly! Because you're easy to control!" He Yushui said unceremoniously!
Seeing that Sha Zhu still didn't understand, He Yushui then explained their scheme.
"Ultimately, you, He Yuzhu, are Yi Zhonghai's backup for old age. Think about it, Yi Zhonghai constantly made you help the widow, but what did he do? He just used his words to be generous with others' resources!" He Yushui said.
He Daqing, who was standing by, couldn't bear to watch anymore. He never thought Sha Zhu would be so foolish as to still not understand the reason.
"My Sha Zhu, no matter how much of a scoundrel I was, I never wronged you. Think about it, you were already sixteen when I left, and I even arranged a job for you. I just didn't expect that beast Yi Zhonghai to do such a despicable thing!" He Daqing cursed in a deep voice.
He Yuzhu still needed some time to digest the actions of Deaf Old Lady and Yi Zhonghai, not to mention his dear and respected Sister Qin!
The three members of the He family talked a lot, from noon until evening.
...
Meanwhile, Qin Huairu had some bad luck. Early in the morning, she went to the propaganda department to inquire about Xu Damao's latest rural assignment.
She finally arrived at Wangjia Village in the afternoon, only to find that Xu Damao had left Wangjia Village earlier than her, heading to the next village to show movies.
The interrogation at the Jiaodao Kou Police Station also came to an end. With everyone having confessed, it didn't matter if Deaf Old Lady didn't confess; all the evidence was already laid out.
Finally, Deaf Old Lady also confessed truthfully, including Yang Factory Director's minor mistakes.
With Deaf Old Lady's confession, the Yi Zhonghai case could largely be closed. But during the closing, the special task force discovered the origin of the case.
Because Bang Geng stole a chicken, He Yuzhu took the blame for him, which eventually escalated into revenge, forcing Xu Damao to divorce.
This then led to He Yushui being pushed to the brink and finding He Daqing!
These two cases could be considered one case and could be handled together.
He Yuzhu had already obtained a letter of understanding, and since the matter was resolved, there was naturally nothing for him to worry about. Even though he had done things that aroused the wrath of heaven and resentment of men, who could blame him when the parties involved had all issued letters of understanding?
This was hard on Jia Geng. At such a young age, stealing and killing a chicken, it could be said that the origin of the matter came from him, so naturally, Jia Geng would not fare well.
Jia Geng, who could have still waited for a letter of understanding, completely lost his last chance with a single sentence from the head of the special task force.
As the sun set and the moon rose, the bright moonlight fell upon the earth, draping it in a charming veil.
At 95 Nanluoguxiang, in the Jia family's middle Courtyard, Jia Zhangshi complained to Qin Huairu.
"Qin Huairu, what good are you? You can't even find someone!"
"Do you think I want to? Two days in a row, I've ridden my bike two hundred kilometers. I even suspect Xu Damao is deliberately hiding from me!" Qin Huairu responded helplessly to Jia Zhangshi's complaints.
"Knock, knock, knock..."
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
"Who is it!"
"We are from the police station!"
Qin Huairu was slightly startled and immediately ran to open the door, and the arrival of the police also attracted the attention of others in the Courtyard.
"Officer, it's so late, is something wrong?" Qin Huairu asked.
An officer handed Qin Huairu a case handling slip and said, "Jia Geng's case has been closed. Jia Geng has been sentenced to three months in a juvenile detention center for theft, effective immediately. Remember to send him his personal clothing and bedding!"
As soon as the words fell, Qin Huairu felt her eyes blur and almost collapsed!
"Ah... My Bang Geng, how can he go to a juvenile detention center!" Jia Zhangshi rushed out, knelt on the ground, and pleaded, "Officers, Bang Geng is still young, please give him a chance and let him go!"
"Comrade, please get up quickly. The case has been closed. If you have any questions, you can consult the station!" An officer pulled Jia Zhangshi up. Seeing that Jia Zhangshi refused to get up, he immediately clarified the situation and fled in a hurry!
Watching the police leave, Jia Zhangshi completely let herself go, throwing a tantrum and rolling on the ground, calling out to Old Jia and Little Jia. But no matter how she called, the neighbors in the Siheyuan (Courtyard) only watched as if it were a play, and a free one at that. This entertainment was truly amusing.
