Chapter 374: Jia Zhang’s intrigues and volunteering to be a gun
It was almost noon when Jia and Zhang’s group finished their work.
Yi Zhonghai was thinking about the Jia family's affairs, so he took an afternoon off and returned to the courtyard.
After dinner.
As the landlord, Yi Zhonghai closed the door and held a joint meeting between Yi and Jia.
Mainly discuss the follow-up issues of the Jia family.
When he learned that Jia Zhang wanted to ask for compensation from Li Aiguo, Yi Zhonghai frowned.
It’s not that he felt sorry for Li Aiguo.
But I want to make a fuss about this matter, and I don’t want to touch Li Aiguo for the time being.
Good steel must be used on the blade.
"Sister-in-law, that boy Li Aiguo is not easy to deal with. Should we find another way?"
Jia Zhang frowned and said: "Yi Zhonghai, are you afraid of Li Aiguo? You have become like him. She's like a deaf old lady?"
"What are you saying!"
Yi Zhonghai knows Jia Zhang's temperament.
If you want her to obey you, you must first break her head and bleed.
So I won’t persuade you anymore.
Yi Zhonghai said sadly: "Sister-in-law, you can go as long as you want, I support you!"
Jia Zhang stood up holding the table: "Old Yi, don't worry, This time my house collapsed, and the residents will not side with Li Aiguo."
Li Aiguo returned home with the pickled cabbage jar, but Chen Xueru had not returned yet.
He was going to make a fire to cook.
Today I have sauerkraut, cook a pot of millet porridge, and fry seven or eight eggs, which can barely make a meal.
Before the fire was lit, I heard a shout from outside.
"Li Aiguo, come out!"
The voice sounds like it belongs to Jia Zhang.
Why doesn’t this old guy stop cursing?
Holding the fire pliers, Li Aiguo opened the door and walked out of the house.
I saw Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu standing side by side by the flower bed.
Everyone held their heads high, just like the Nima Demolition Squad.
Jia Zhang was originally angry, but when she saw the fire pliers, she couldn't help but shrink her neck, and her momentum suddenly dropped a lot.
"Li, Li Aiguo, my house collapsed."
"Ah, I know. I rescued Jia Dongxu. Do you want to thank me? No need!" Li Aiguo said coldly: "I am a kind-hearted person. Even if I see a wild cat or dog, I will save it." ."
Jia Dongxu: "."
Jia Zhangshi: "."
She always felt a little scared every time she saw Li Aiguo.
It’s just to repair the house, so I can’t worry about so much.
With his hair standing on end and a gloomy face, Jia Zhang gritted his teeth and said, "My house collapsed because you bombed it. You have to pay for it."
Jia Dongxu added: " Also, as the captain of the voluntary patrol team, you failed to detect the danger in time, and I was almost killed. You also have to pay for it."
Both Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu attacked, and Qin Huairu seemed to be a teammate. You should say something.
It’s just that her skills are not yet deep. She tilted her head and couldn’t think of a reason. She could only pinch her waist and hesitate: "You, you pay!"
Good guy, group Team attack.
"Since you said that, let's reason." Li Aiguo raised the tongs.
Jia Zhang was much smarter than Ma Xiaojun. She subconsciously took a step back and got out of the attack range.
Ginger is still spicy.
Li Aiguo could only temporarily give up the idea of venting his anger, and said with a smile: "First, Jia Zhang, you were bombed because you stole my coal.
And those coals were The locomotive depot got it from the Luanping Coal Mine. The bombs in the coal were left by the Japanese, so you should hold the Japanese accountable.
Well, if you decide to go to sea, I will personally sponsor you a dime. .”
Jia Zhang was speechless immediately.
Li Aiguo continued: "When we inspected the house, you guaranteed that there was no problem with the house, and you even wrote a letter of guarantee."
As he spoke, he took out the piece of paper from his pocket. , swaying in the air for all the residents to see.
“Jia Zhang also drew a pig on it as a signature.”
In order to deal with Li Aiguo, Jia Zhang went from door to door to complain.
Although those people who didn’t know the truth didn’t believe it, the house collapsed after all.
Now that I see the letter of guarantee from the Jia family, I feel relieved.
Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief: "Let me just say, this kid Ai Guo has always been prudent in doing things and will not deliberately fail to check the Jia family."
"Jia Zhang is a liar, so she should Tear her mouth apart." He Yuyu nodded heavily.
Yan Bugui had been hiding nearby and did not come forward. Now seeing that the Jia family was at a disadvantage, he coughed twice and walked out.
"Sister-in-law of the Jia family, your house collapsed. It does deserve sympathy, but you can't frame a good person."
In this incident, Yan Bugui got three new copies for nothing. net.
The third aunt said that there are many benefits to joining Li Aiguo.
"If it weren't for patriotism this time, our compound would have been flooded with several families. How could you, Jia Zhang, deliberately slander a meritorious minister?"
If it weren't for Yan Bugui being a cultural person.
The phrase ‘deliberate slander’ struck a chord with Mrs. Jia Zhang, and also reminded the residents that Mrs. Jia Zhang had a criminal record.
“This bird from my hometown is not a good bird at first glance!”
“Just wait for the day when we eat black dates.”
“We have to be careful about her in the future. "
Everyone in the courtyard pointed at Jia Zhang and started talking.
Jia Zhang does not think that she did anything wrong. Li Aiguo blew up her house and should compensate her family.
At that time, she resorted to the trick: "Oh! It's unreasonable! Li Aiguo, who killed a thousand swords, bullied others! My family was forced to death!"
Qin Huairu felt Sensing something was wrong, he quickly stepped forward and whispered in her ear: "Mom, Li Aiguo has a big gun."
At this time, Xu Damao was shouting next to him: "The old lady of the Jia family is making trouble again, Aiguo." You are the captain of the patrol now, so you might as well force her.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang immediately stopped crying, stood up from the ground, and dusted herself off, as if her alleged act just now was just a fall.
The residents who were watching also laughed at her appearance.
Amidst the laughter, Jia Zhang felt that she would not get any benefits today, and since Yi Zhonghai never showed up, she prepared to retreat with her pig teammates.
“Oh, look, there is a big plane in the sky.”
She pointed to the sky, turned around and ran away.
How old are you to still play such childish things?
Li Aiguo glanced at the sky and quickly stopped her: "Jia Zhang, you want to run away after making trouble? Who gives you such a big face."
"What do you want. " Seeing that the golden cicada couldn't escape its shell, Jia Zhang could only hold her neck and said.
"My old lady didn't scold you or hit you, so I don't believe you dare to use a gun!"
Li Aiguo ignored her and touched his waist.
Seeing that Li Aiguo refused to give up, and Jia Zhang was not afraid of boiling water, Yan Bugui could only come out to smooth things over.
"Aiguo, what are you doing? We all live in the same hospital. If you have anything to say, please speak slowly.
The third uncle is the master of the family and asks Jia Zhang to apologize to you for this matter. Even if it’s over,”
“Old Yan, I’m not scolding, I’m just here to reason, why should I apologize?” Gui's face became serious: "Sister-in-law of the Jia family, you three are blocking the door of other people's houses. Are you so reasonable?"
Ms. Jia Zhang blushed so hard that her neck was thick and she was speechless.
In the end, I had no choice but to say with a blushing face: "I'm sorry, Li Aiguo, my old lady is uneducated and ignorant. Please forgive me for this."
This The second Jia Zhang did not dare to make a fuss, and Li Aiguo did not want to argue with her, so he said coldly: "If you are not literate, you should learn to be literate, instead of taking ignorance as an honor.
Didn't our street office teach literacy? "Ban, I think your whole family has to go in and study."
After saying that, he turned around and entered the room without looking at them again.
Jia Zhang was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do.
After all, he can't be beaten again and again. If he acts like a rogue, Li Aiguo really dares to do it.
There is no solution!
She could only take Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu back to Lao Yi's house.
Yi Zhonghai had long expected that the Jia family would be in trouble.
Putting down the enamel jar, he walked up and asked pretending to be concerned: "Sister-in-law, how is the situation? How much does Li Aiguo want to compensate you?"
"It doesn't matter whether you want to compensate or not. My old lady doesn't care about my neighbors in the compound." Mrs. Jia Zhang felt embarrassed and said in a huff.
Seeing this situation, Yi Zhonghai understood clearly.
He asked Aunt Ma to go into the kitchen and bring three bowls of Erhe noodles.
“Eat some food first and warm yourself up.”
The three members of the Jia family began to eat, and Yi Zhonghai said slowly: "Sister-in-law, that boy Li Aiguo is notoriously difficult to deal with. This is a crime other than war!"
"What crime? I committed a crime Are you ready?" Mrs. Jia Zhang raised her head, with noodles hanging from the corners of her mouth.
"The meaning of crimes other than war is..."
Yi Zhonghai wanted to explain to her, but felt that she couldn't understand it based on her cultural level, so she could only say bluntly: "No. Sin, you are not guilty."
'Suck'
Jia Zhang swallowed the noodles and said, "That's right, how could I possibly commit a crime?"
>
Qin Huairu thought of the Jia family's house and felt a little overwhelmed.
Putting the chopsticks on the bowl, he said worriedly: "Master Yi, my house has collapsed now. It should be cleaned up. That will cost a lot of money."
Yi Zhonghai hehehe He smiled and said: "You guys are a little stupid."
Seeing that it attracted the attention of several people in the Jia family, he continued:
"Li Aiguo's money is his own.
Even if his salary is high and he can get more than 100 yuan a month, he will not be willing to give it to others.
But the money from the street office It's different.
It's public, so I don't feel bad about using it."
"Can the street office give me money?" Ms. Jia Zhang also put down her chopsticks and frowned.
Jia Dongxu continued to eat, "Yes, master, my house was not destroyed by the street office. Why should they pay for it?"
Yi Zhonghai picked up the enamel Jar, take a sip, and look like an old god is here.
“Now is a new society, completely different from before liberation.”
“Isn’t the purpose of the subdistrict office to serve the people?”
“You are the people! ”
"Now that your house has collapsed and you have no place to live, the street office can't just watch you sleep on the street."
After saying that, Yi Zhonghai increased his voice and added: "Besides, in the whole matter, , didn’t the subdistrict office make any mistakes?”
“They should compensate if they made a mistake!”
These words shocked the three Jia family members in the room.
They all came from before liberation.
In those years, let alone natural disasters, even if a fire was set by the government and set fire to other people's houses, the residents could not receive compensation.
Anyone who dares to make trouble in the government office will be arrested and beaten severely.
After liberation, it seems to be really different.
“The sub-district office often helps the five-guarantee households, and it should also help our Jia family.” Mrs. Jia and Zhang believed deeply.
Jia Dongxu slammed the table: "This heavy rainstorm is also the responsibility of the street office, and they should pay compensation."
Jia Zhangshi: "."
Qin Huairu: "."
Taking a deep breath, Yi Zhonghai said: "Dongxu, we must be reasonable and well-founded, not nonsense."
"Master, I'm not talking nonsense. If the street office could predict heavy rains one month in advance, my family would definitely repair the house and avoid this disaster."
Jia Dongxu stood up and waved his big hand confidently. Said: "So the responsibility lies entirely with the street office."
Yi Zhonghai: "."
He felt that this apprentice was better than his master.
The old master was very pleased. With a unified goal, the Jia family suddenly became energetic, and Yi Zhonghai followed suit.
“Master, tell us what we should do!”
Yi Zhonghai smiled vaguely and said in a deep voice: "You can't do this recklessly. The three of you will go to the street office to find Director Wang tomorrow."
After hearing Yi Zhonghai's method, Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu He nodded frequently: "Lao Yi, this is a good idea. Director Wang has always prided himself on dedicating himself to the residents. This time I helped her get the limelight."
Qin Huairu sat beside him silently, frowning slightly. Wrinkled, as if disagreeing.
Discussion completed.
Jia Zhang asked Qin Huairu to bring foot-washing water, and she and Jia Dongxu washed their feet, and then went to bed.
The fire kang was burning brightly, and the heat was overflowing from the kang. Mrs. Jia Zhang was lying on the quilt, feeling comfortable all over.
“Yi Zhonghai, this old guy, really knows how to enjoy things. When we get the compensation from the street office, we will also build a fire pit.”
Banggen has fallen asleep, Qin Huairu put him Put it inside and cover it with a quilt.
Seeing that the eldest mother had not come in yet, Qin Huairu got under the quilt, leaned into Jia Zhang's ear, and whispered: "Mom, why do I feel that Master Yi wants to use us as swordsmen again?"
“Do you think I don’t know?” Jia Zhang rolled her eyes and said coldly: “This old guy has never been kind.”
"Then you still listen to him?"
"You are stupid. It doesn't matter what Yi Zhonghai wants to do, as long as he can help us build the house." Jia Zhang squinted her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth. He said with a hint of sinisterness: "The sub-district office is not easy to mess with, it is the government office.
Tomorrow you will show your talents in recruiting, don't just listen to Yi Zhonghai and get involved yourself."
"Mom, don't worry."
Qin Huairu sighed secretly.
If I had followed Li Aiguo, I wouldn’t have had to fight with each other all day long.
Looking at the black ceiling, Qin Huairu regretted a little.
At this time, the aunt took advantage of the opportunity of watering vegetables to pull Yi Zhonghai out of the house.
A ladle of water was poured on the cabbage, and the green leaves seemed to stretch a lot.
Auntia put the water back into the barrel, looked at Yi Zhonghai and said: "Old Yi, I always feel that what you are going to do this time seems a bit uncertain."
"Don't worry. The Jia family who came forward is Director Ma who is causing trouble behind the scenes. We are sitting on the Diaoyutai this time." Pour it in the vegetable patch.
Looking at the vegetable leaves that had been knocked down by the water and stuck to the ground, the eldest mother smiled bitterly and shook her head.
She felt that things would not go as Yi Zhonghai wanted.
The next day.
The wind is beautiful and the sun is shining.
The capital, which had been gloomy for several days, came to life again.
After the heavy rain, there are mud and tree branches everywhere in the yard and on the road.
The neighborhood office organized residents of various courtyards to clean their yards and roads early in the morning.
Those families affected by the disaster also started cleanup work.
It was busy inside and outside the courtyard.
Li Aiguo had a driving duty, so he took Chen Xueru to the Daqianmen Subdistrict Office on his bicycle early in the morning, and then got into work.
In the Nantongluo Lane Subdistrict Office, Director Wang was also very busy. The neighborhood suffered serious damage in the heavy rain.
The walls of two large courtyards collapsed during heavy rains, and five sewage cellar entrances need to be dredged. These are public areas and require maintenance by the street office on weekdays.
So the superiors need to allocate materials and manpower to repair it.
"Old Ma, have you calculated exactly how much supplies are needed?"
Director Wang called Deputy Director Ma, who was in charge of infrastructure logistics, into the office.
Deputy Director Ma is also an old man in the sub-district office. Before liberation, he served as the secretary of the sub-district office.
The secretary is equivalent to the cadre of today's sub-district office. He is mainly responsible for the clerical work of the sub-district and assists the street chief in administrative management.
After the liberation of the capital, there was an urgent need for neighborhood managers, and Deputy Director Ma had no bad records, so he was able to stay in office.
If you want to manage the grassroots level of a dynasty with flowing water and iron-clad officials, you must need these workers.
Deputy Director Ma also feels that the sub-district office cannot do without him.
“It’s all here.” Deputy Director Ma placed the materials on the table.
Director Wang took it and read it carefully, nodding frequently: "Old Ma, you are worthy of being an old street. You have clearly calculated all the materials."
"That is your wise leadership."
"You, you, your old habit has happened again. We don't want to brag about walking horses now."
"Yes, yes, yes, look at me, I made a mistake again. I will do it again in the future." Study hard and try to be like you."
Deputy Director Ma licked his face and said with a smile: "If there's nothing wrong, I'll go ahead."
"Go ahead, remember to be there in the afternoon. Check it on the spot and make sure you don’t miss anything.”
“Good.”
Deputy Director Ma turned around, and the humble smile on his face suddenly disappeared and turned ferocious.
He is more than ten years older than Director Wang. He has worked in the street all his life and thinks that his abilities are far superior to Director Wang.
Just because he was a retainer from the previous dynasty, the position of director was taken away by Director Wang.
That's all. As long as you assist Director Wang, Director Wang will be promoted one day.
However, what Deputy Director Ma did not expect was that last year the district transferred Director Wang to head the education department.
But he was rejected by Director Wang.
Her so-called reason is that she likes working in the neighborhood and interacting with ordinary people.
Hypocritical, so hypocritical!
Those uneducated old ladies, what’s there to do with them?
This also means that Deputy Director Ma will be the deputy director for the rest of his life.
"Old Wang, we have no grievances, but you want to block my way, don't blame me for being rude."
Leaved the office.
Deputy Director Ma paused for a moment, walked to the railing and lowered his head to look downstairs, looking a little anxious.
When he saw Jia Zhang coming in from the outside with Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu, he felt relieved.
Yi Zhonghai is indeed a student taught by the deaf old lady, and he is quite capable.
This was the first time that Jia Zhang came to the subdistrict office. After asking the officials where the director's office was, the three of them went straight to the second floor.
Passing past Deputy Director Ma and exchanging cryptic glances, Jia Zhang walked to the door of the director's office and knocked.
After waiting for a response from inside, he opened the door and entered the office.
Director Wang had just sorted out the materials. When he looked up and saw Jia Zhang coming in, his brows suddenly furrowed.
“Jia Zhang, what’s wrong with you?”
"Oops, Director Wang, my house has collapsed. You have to help me." Jia Zhang stepped forward with Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu.
She sat down on the chair and started wailing at the top of her lungs.
Director Wang hated this kind of old woman the most, but he couldn't get rid of her. He could only frown and said: "Your home has suffered a big disaster. We have learned about the situation and are going to ask the residents in the compound to help clean up. , and then introduce you to the regular construction team."
"That's it?" Jia Zhang's eyes widened.
"Jia Zhang, what else do you have in mind?"
Seeing Jia Zhang's eyes rolling around, Director Wang understood that she had come prepared.
At this time, the office door was already surrounded by people who came to do business and officials from the street office.
This abnormality made Director Wang wary.
It’s hard to believe that Li Aiguo guessed it right. Someone wants to take this opportunity to cause trouble?
Seeing the audience, Jia Zhang’s expression became even more miserable.
Her shoulders were trembling slightly, and her hands were crossed on her chest, as if she was holding a piece of pain that was difficult to let go of.
"Ang!"
Jia Zhang cried loudly: "Director Wang, your street office collapsed my house but did not pay compensation. Do you think that after Lao Jia died, we Can you let others bully you?"
"Hey, your house collapsed in the heavy rain, what does it have to do with our subdistrict office?" Director Wang felt confused.
Jia Dongxu puffed up his chest: "That's because your subdistrict office did not make a forecast one week in advance. If we were prepared, how could the house collapse."
As soon as these words came out, Director Wang of the subdistrict office Confused.
What kind of brain circuit is this?
She took two deep breaths, suppressed her anger, and slowly explained to the Jia family: "Heavy rain is a sudden disaster, and the weather is unpredictable. According to our weather forecast technology, it is still impossible to predict it one week in advance. Accurately forecast the weather.”
Jia Dongxu was stunned when he heard this. He felt that Director Wang’s words were correct, but...
Seeing that Jia Dongxu was being criticized, Jia Zhang stood up calmly. , wiping tears and said: "My old lady is uneducated, who knows if you are lying to me?"
Director Wang of the sub-district office finally understood that these people were here to play rogue.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, I sympathize with your family's plight, but this matter has nothing to do with the street office. You should go back quickly and find a way to raise money to build a house."
Jia Zhang had no choice but to use her trump card: "Director Wang, your subdistrict office serves the people, and we are the people too. Why don't you help us build our houses."
"."< br>
Director Wang has finally seen how rogue Jia and Zhang are.
However, in her years of work in the neighborhood, she often encountered such people, and said calmly: "Our neighborhood has limited capabilities, and we can only try our best to help those people who really can't survive."< br>
This was approved by the onlookers.
"Yes, if everyone is like Jia and Zhang, asking the street office to help build a house, even selling the street office will not be enough."
"Heavy rain is a natural disaster, Jia and Zhang But she wants to blackmail the street office. She is really brave."
"She must think that whoever is making trouble is justified."
"I think this kind of trend cannot spread. She should be locked up and given a good education."
Jia Zhang was caught by Director Wang in a few seconds, which was not beyond Deputy Director Ma's expectations.
He clenched his fists tightly, waiting for Director Wang to arrest Jia Zhang.
That way, the next step will be easier to carry out.
What was just beyond his expectation was that Jia Zhang's attitude changed instantly when she saw Director Wang's face turning pale.
The anger on his face suddenly disappeared and turned into a clear sunny day.
He changes his face so fast that he can even go on stage to sing in an opera.
Just when everyone was confused and couldn't figure out what she wanted to do.
Jia Zhang said respectfully: "Director, what you said makes sense. After I go back, I will reflect on myself."
Good guy, I am acting here so early in the morning. ? !
The sudden change in Jia Zhang's attitude made Director Wang give up on trying to deal with her.
"Okay, Mrs. Jia Zhang, for the sake of your age and lack of education, I will let you go back this time. If you cause trouble again in the future, we must handle it in accordance with the rules and regulations."
“Yes, yes, yes”
Jia Zhang took Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu away in despair.
Waiting out of the gate of the street office.
Jia Zhang turned to look at the majestic door and snorted: "Just wait, someone will send us money soon."
*
*
*
Jia Zhang’s sudden defection was beyond Deputy Director Ma’s expectation.
According to his original plan.
Jia Zhang went to the street to make trouble.
Director Wang of the sub-district office should arrest Jia Zhang, and then he can go to the district to report that Director Wang is bullying the residents in his jurisdiction.
Now the plan is only halfway through and there is no further progress.
This is unacceptable to Deputy Director Ma, who is waiting to take the position of director of the subdistrict office.
Taking the opportunity to inspect the disaster site, he quietly came to the steel rolling mill and found Yi Zhonghai.
After recounting what happened today, Deputy Director Ma narrowed his eyes and said: "Lao Yi, why is this Jia Zhang so timid? Even if she is arrested, I will fish her out. Come on.”
Yi Zhonghai also didn’t expect that Jia Zhang, who had always been brainless, would learn to be smart this time.
He patted Deputy Director Ma on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Old Ma, the responsibility here cannot be entirely on Jia Zhang. Who is not afraid of walking in the fence these days."
< br>Now it is different from before liberation. Now one person squats on a fence, and the whole family is affected.
If Jia Zhang really gets married, it will be difficult for Bangge to find a wife in the future.
Deputy Director Ma also knew that it would not work to get Jia Zhang to go to the streets to cause trouble.
I could only grit my teeth and say: "I originally thought of using force to deal with Director Wang, but now I can only bring the matter to the district. When Jia Zhang's behavior is worse, those leaders will definitely I will investigate Director Wang.”
“I’m secretly doing something to achieve my goal.”
After making up his mind, Deputy Director Ma looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, “Old man. "Yi, what will happen if Jia Zhang doesn't cooperate?"
"Jia Zhang is a greedy person. He only cares about money and not people," Yi Zhonghai said.
Deputy Director Ma thought about the position of director of the sub-district office, gritted his teeth and said: "I will give it!"
