Chapter 74: A Rake
Not long after Wang Hao took the people away, Qian Yixing walked in with the people.
So, before everyone in the courtyard dispersed, they were questioned again.
Only this time the focus is on Yang Xiaotao’s speculative behavior.
As before, this investigation came out with the same two opinions.
Most people said it was just an exchange between neighbors.
The Jia family, the second uncle's family, the Xu family and a few others thought that Yang Xiaotao's behavior was speculative.
When it comes to personal interests, you look at things from different angles, so you will naturally make a choice that is beneficial to you if you want the result.
What Qian Yixing thought was that the truth was in the hands of a few people, so he naturally took the words of the Jia family as evidence. He was so happy that he said "Thank you for your cooperation" and left quickly.
Looking at another wave of people leaving, several people in the courtyard looked silent.
Jia Zhang's eyes were shining. Looking at Qian Yixing's posture, he naturally understood the other party's tendency.
I was even more certain that Yang Xiaotao was in trouble this time.
After the factory got off work, the people who returned home once again confirmed the fact that Yang Xiaotao had been arrested, and the noise in the courtyard became even louder.
In the Jia family, Jia Dongxu rarely bought half a catty of pork. At this moment, Qin Huairu was cutting it on the chopping board. The whole family was filled with happy smiles.
"Mom, look, Yang Xiaotao must have failed this time."
"I didn't expect that the most ruthless person in our courtyard is the second uncle. If this move is confirmed, Yang Xiaotao will lose his job."
Jia Zhang was lighting a fire aside, and after hearing this, he touched his wrist He gloated about his misfortune and said, "It's better to lock him up and lock him up for the rest of his life."
"The two rooms in his house belong to our family."
On the other hand, Jia Dongxu was also in high spirits, thinking about the wonderful things. future.
Speaking of this, Jia Zhang suddenly stood up.
"No, I have to watch, but I can't give others an advantage."
Jia Zhang ran out in a hurry. Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu were both startled, and they ran out quickly.
I saw Jia Zhang running away, and quickly ran to Yang Xiaotao's house under the surprised eyes of the people in the yard.
"Jia Zhang, what are you doing here?"
Aunt Chen was sitting on the bench at the door and said in disgust when she saw Jia Zhang.
Mrs. Jia Zhang snorted coldly, ignored Aunt Chen, and walked to Yang Xiaotao's door in a few steps. She did not dare to enter the house, so she could only look at the vegetable garden at the foot of the steps, her eyes shining.
Hearing the sound, Uncle Chen also walked out and stared at Jia Zhang.
A lot of people quickly gathered in the yard, obviously many people had the idea of a vegetable garden.
Seeing more and more people, Uncle Chen frowned, knowing what these people were planning.
However, he doesn't care. He has lived for more than half his life. What kind of evildoer has he not seen before?
I saw Uncle Chen standing at the door with a golden sword, looking at the people below.
Jia Zhang stood aside with a stern look on her face, followed by Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu.
Jia Zhang looked at it for a while, then walked towards the yard.
“Jia Zhang, don’t be shameless!”
“If you take something that is not yours, it is stealing!”
"With so many people watching, if you don't complain, it's robbery!"
"You have to think about it!"
Uncle Chen said coldly, Jia Zhang said With a look of disgust on his face, "What are you talking about?"
"We are all in the same yard. Taking something is considered stealing? Is it considered robbery?"
Jia Zhang pinched her waist and had triangular eyes. Revealing evil energy.
"Our family is preparing to cook, and we are almost out of food."
"Come and get some. Yang Xiaotao hasn't said anything yet. Why does an old man who is about to die have so much free time?"
Uncle Chen sneered, "What? Since But I see that there are no good people in your family, so look after Yang Xiaotao’s family!”
“Who are you talking about?”
“Who is not a good person? Please tell me clearly. Otherwise I will never be done with you.”
"Haha, old woman, who are you dating?"
Aunt Chen also walked over with her waist pinched, her aura was not much worse than that of Jia and Zhang.
Their family is also an old man in the yard, and Aunt Chen was also a shrewd master when she was young.
"Zhang Erniu, others are afraid of you acting up, but I am not afraid."
"Don't think that no one knows about your scandalous things. If you dare to act like a rogue here, I will expose your old background and let you You can’t be a human being in this yard.”
Aunt Chen pointed at Mrs. Jia Zhang's nose and directly called her names.
When Jia Zhang faced Aunt Chen, her previous ability to play tricks and fool around was gone. Now after listening to the other party's words, she became even weaker by three points.
"Hmph, He Shufen, don't scare me."
"I won't accept your trick."
Jia Zhang said forcefully to herself, her eyes tangled. Turn, "I'm not here to fight with you."
"Yang Xiaotao has been arrested for speculating. He doesn't know when he will come back."
"This vegetable garden must also belong to the public. We people in the courtyard naturally have the right to dispose of it."
Jia Zhang felt that the more she spoke, the more reasonable she became. She was convinced that Yang Xiaotao would not come back, and became even more unscrupulous.
I glanced at Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen, and said with a sneer, "You two followed Yang Xiaotao and drank spicy food. Now that Yang Xiaotao has gone, you just want to occupy this place?"
"Humph, don't even think about this!"
"You! You shameless person!"
Uncle Chen was so angry that he was about to take action. When Jia Zhang saw it, she immediately hid behind Jia Dongxu.
Jia Dongxu looked proud, "What's the matter, Uncle Chen, are you angry? Or did my mother mention your sore spot?"
"We don't want to hit the elderly in our yard, but you don't either You take yourself too seriously!" Jia Dongxu puffed out his chest with a fierce look on his face.
"Hahaha"
Uncle Chen laughed angrily at his words, turned around and said to his angry wife, "Let's go home."
"When Xiaotao comes back, Let’s see how cool they can be!”
After that, he pulled Aunt Chen and walked into the house.
When Jia Zhang saw it, she immediately yelled, "He is the only one who can come out? Humph. Don't even think about it in this life."
Jia Dongxu on the side also nodded, "That's right, once you go in, don't even think about coming out."
Jia Zhang turned around and walked into the vegetable garden.
He stretched out his hand and started to pick a tomato. He took a bite and a sweet taste filled his taste buds.
"Suck, this is delicious. Son, Huairu, hurry up and pick it."
Qin Huairu couldn't help it, and learned to pick a tomato. After eating it in his mouth, his stomach felt full. sweet.
The family quickly got into action in the vegetable garden and picked a bunch of tomatoes, cucumbers, leeks, and even peppers.
Many people in the yard saw it, and the third aunt also ran over. If she didn't come, she would be picked off by the Jia family.
The third aunt came with a basket this time, and she quickly stuffed a basket.
At this time, other people in the yard also ran over, and like locusts, they picked all the fruits and vegetables in the vegetable garden.
Fortunately, they also know about sustainable development, thinking that they can continue picking next time, so the roots and seedlings are not damaged.
It's just that the people who came later looked at the empty yard and regretted not coming earlier.
Uncle Chen waited until the yard calmed down before he walked out. With disappointment on his face, he turned around and returned home.
The night was heavy, and the spotless Jade Rabbit was ashamed of the disturbing scene in front of him, and hid in the dark clouds without the face to come out.
In the cold hut, there was a cold bed. Yang Xiaotao rested his arm on his pillow and looked at the looming moonlight through the window, his thoughts going on.
"There is bright moonlight in front of the bed, I suspect it is frost on the ground. I raise my head to look at the bright moon and lower my head..."
"I can't go back!"
At this moment, Yang Xiaotao didn't feel scared or worried.
On the contrary, it is an indescribable loneliness, like a stranger in a foreign land who somehow jumped into this world, a strange environment, a strange time, and everything is strange. .
At this moment, the coldness in the room made him feel lonely as he had never experienced since time travel.
He lacks a sense of belonging.
Beside her, Xiaowei felt her master's loneliness, and lay quietly on his master's heart, warming his body.
In the Lou family, Xu Damao packed up the projector. Father Lou and Father Xu were sitting next to them. Mother Xu and Mother Lou prepared the meals and brought them to the table. Several people were discussing what they had just finished watching. movie.
Only Lou Xiao'e was sitting on the side, her eyes a little confused.
This afternoon, Lou Jingtang showed her Yang Xiaotao's information.
She originally thought she had found love, but looking at her father's serious face, she suddenly felt like it was getting dark.
It was hard for her to accept it. How could the big boy in her mind be this kind of person?
But the information clearly states that Yang Xiaotao is this kind of person.
A few people sat around the table. Xu Damao deliberately sat next to Lou Xiao'e. Looking at Lou Xiao'e's quiet and beautiful appearance, he felt very itchy in his heart.
Father Xu and Lou Jingtang were drinking wine, and the two women were chatting with each other. Xu Damao was talking about the movie just now, and he would make jokes from time to time, just to make everyone at your table laugh.
Gradually, Lou Xiaoe was infected by the atmosphere, and a smile appeared on her face.
Xu Damao kept up his efforts. He was accustomed to being glib and playful. When faced with a girl like Lou Xiao'e who was not experienced in the world, he naturally went along with what he liked and said what she wanted to hear.
Gradually, the conversation between the two became more and more in-depth, and Lou Xiaoe's feelings about Xu Damao became deeper and deeper.
The changes in the relationship between the two made the family members around them feel deeply.
After dinner, Lou’s mother took her daughter and Xu’s mother to sit downstairs. Lou Jingtang and the Xu family’s father and son were the only ones left in the room.
While the three of them were drinking tea, Lou Jingtang suddenly asked, "How about Yang Xiaotao from your compound?"
Xu Damao was feeling proud. In his opinion, Lou Xiao'e could not escape from his grasp.
When I suddenly heard Yang Xiaotao's name, I felt bad, anger appeared on my face, and I wanted to slander Yang Xiaotao.
Unexpectedly, Father Xu on the other side spoke earlier.
"This Yang Xiaotao is from our compound. His father died for the steel rolling mill, and he can be regarded as a descendant of martyrs."
"He should be a second-level fitter now, and his life is pretty good."
"I usually like to read books when I'm in the yard."
"But this child has a stubborn temper and can't get along with the people in the yard."
"Not very gregarious!"
Father Xu first praised Yang Xiaotao, but with the last sentence of being unsociable, Father Lou told him to give up on Yang Xiaotao completely.
For him, finding a son-in-law with a clean financial background and an ordinary person is more important than anything else.
On the contrary, they knew the situation of the Xu family relatively well. To be able to become a film projectionist, their political background was acceptable.
The only thing I'm worried about is Xu Damao. Now after tonight's conversation, I think it's okay.
Lou Jingtang had an idea in his mind and started talking to Xu's father Xu Damao again, even more eagerly.
After a while, Father Xu took the people away.
After Xu's father left with his family, Lou Xiao'e's heart no longer felt so uncomfortable, and the figure of Xu Damao also appeared in her heart.
In the final analysis, she is just a girl who is looking forward to love, but sometimes, love always has to give way to reality.
Especially in their family’s situation, one wrong step would lead to disaster.
Overall, she had a good impression of Xu Damao, and she also had the idea of relying on him.
As for Yang Xiaotao, it has begun to become blurry in her heart.
After reading the book friend’s comments, I had a lot to say, but I didn’t know how to say it.
How about we just stop talking about it and let’s read on?
