"Scaring you? Humph"
"Xie Kuang, do me a favor. Go to the police station and tell them that there is a person here who is promoting feudal superstitious ideas, threatening and intimidating others by summoning spirits. I suspect that she is a remnant of Yiguandao. Let them know quickly. come and see."
"okay"
Yan Jiekuang, who didn't mind watching the excitement, immediately ran outside after hearing this.
"Who is Yiguandao? You are slandering others. Yan Jiekuang, you little bastard, come back here. Come back."
Jia Zhang, who had been arrogant and domineering just now, turned pale when she heard Liu Guangqi say that she was a consistent Taoist. She stretched out her hand to catch Yan Jie Kuang, but how could she, an old lady in her forties or fifties, be able to catch up with someone like Yan Jie Kuang? Half a young man. Yan Jiekuang was gone as soon as he took a puff of smoke.
"Guangqi, it's my fault, please call Xie Kuang back."
Seeing Yan Jiekuang running out, Jia Zhang's expression changed again and again. Thinking of Yiguandao's fate after the army entered the city, the flesh on his face trembled again and again, and he lowered his head and softened with Liu Guang.
"Are you wrong? How could you be wrong? You'd better wait for the police comrades to come and explain to them."
"Hey, Guangqi got angry, Jia Zhang got kicked on the iron plate this time."
"Sure enough, the only one who can treat the Jia and Zhang family in our hospital is Guangqi."
Seeing Jia Zhang's humble appearance, the serious faces of the neighbors finally showed relaxed smiles.
"Liu Guangqi, please don't go too far. Everyone in the courtyard knows whether I am consistent or not. I don't believe that the police comrades just arrested me without asking any questions."
When Jia Zhang saw that Liu Guangqi was not getting enough, he changed his face again.
"Yes, everyone in the courtyard knows that you are not Yiguandao, but who is willing to stand up and testify for you?"
Liu Guangqi curled up his lips and showed a sarcastic smile. When Jia Zhang heard this, she was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked at the neighbors around her, only to realize that almost all of her neighbors had been offended by her over the years. Thinking of this, Mrs. Jia Zhang couldn't help but get chills on her back.
"Old Wu."
"Hehehe"
"His third uncle. When the police come later, you have to say a few words for me. You are the one in charge of our courtyard."
"No, I'm just a bad teacher. You'd better find someone else."
"Aunt Zhang, weren't you very powerful just now? Why aren't you prosperous now? Hahaha."
Although she knew that these neighbors might not speak for her, Jia Zhang still began to plead with them one by one. The result was either a sneer, a roll of the eyes, or even ridicule. Jia Zhang had no choice but to seek help from Silly Zhu, who had the softest ears.
"Silly Zhu, you were raised by Auntie, and our two families are right next to each other. You know best whether Auntie is consistent. You have to bear witness for Auntie."
"No, Aunt Zhang, although you have watched me grow up, I really don't know if you are consistent. I know about the opening of the door, but after closing the door, who knows what you did Well, besides, I am just a toad who wants to eat swan meat, what are you begging for?"
After getting Liu Guangqi's look in his eyes, Silly Zhu would not be stupid, and he had just been scolded by Jia Zhang this morning for being a toad that wanted to eat swan meat. How could he testify for Jia Zhang?
"You, you, you are ganging up to bully people. Come on, come on, look. Someone is bullying orphans and widows."
Seeing that no one is willing to testify for me. Mrs. Jia Zhang stopped pretending and sat on the ground crying and wiping her tears.
"The police comrades from the police station are here. Everyone, give way."
"What's going on? Who is Yiguandao?"
At this moment, Yan Jiekuang, who was sent out by Liu Guangqi to call for help, also ran back, followed by two police officers in uniforms and big-brimmed hats.
"Comrade police, you have to make the decision for me. Seeing that there are no men in our family, these people ganged up to bully our orphans and widows. If you insist on slandering me as a Yiguandao, how can I, a woman, be a Yiguandao?"
Jia Zhang took a look
When the police officer behind Yan Jiekuang arrived, he quickly got up from the ground and ran to the side of the police comrades, hugging the thigh of one of the police officers.
"Comrade, you get up first. We will find out the truth of the matter. Don't be like this. What will it look like if others see it?"
The police comrades were also shocked by Jia Zhang's actions. They hurriedly tried to pull Jia Zhang up, but found that they couldn't pull her up at all. Jia Zhang, who weighed more than 160 kilograms, was stuck like a pile of mud. on the ground.
"I can't afford it. If you don't make the decision for me, I can't afford it."
"Comrade, if you don't get up, we will take coercive measures against you."
The police comrades were also annoyed by Jia Zhang's repeated visits.
"Get up, I'll get up right now"
Seeing the impatience in the eyes of the police comrades, Jia Zhang got up from the ground numbly.
"Who is calling the police?"
The police comrade looked around and asked.
"it's me."
Liu Guangqi raised his hand.
"What you reported is that someone promoted feudal superstitious ideas and threatened and intimidated others by summoning spirits."
"That's right, comrade police, and I also suspect that the person being reported may be a remnant of Yiguandao. Look at her clothes and the layout of her room."
Liu Guangqi pointed at the mourning hall decorated by Jia Zhang and said. Although it is a bit far-fetched to say this, Liu Guangqi had no intention of arresting Jia Zhang in this way.
If Jia Zhang was really sent to prison because of this, the people in the courtyard might applaud him at first, but as time goes by, they would alienate Liu Guangqi. After all, Liu Guangqi can frame up Jia Zhang and send him to prison today, but he will be sent to prison tomorrow. It's only human nature to be able to send them in. Therefore, if you want to solve Jia Zhang's case, you can't do it openly, you can only do it secretly, and you can't be in a hurry, you have to take your time, and you can't give up the truth.
"Is this a dead person in your family?"
The police comrade looked at the mourning hall and asked Jia Zhang.
"No"
Jia Zhang answered honestly.
"No, then what are you doing?"
"me."
Mrs. Jia Zhang stammered for a long time, but I didn't come up with an answer.
"Forget it, who is the steward in our courtyard?"
Seeing that Mrs. Jia Zhang couldn't explain the matter clearly after talking for a long time, the police comrades simply targeted the uncle in charge.
"It's him, and him and him."
Jia Zhang quickly pointed at Yan Bugui who was about to run away, Liu Haizhong who had just returned from get off work, and Yi Zhonghai who was watching coldly.
"Comrade, please tell me what happened."
Seeing that Liu Haizhong had just entered, the two police officers directly focused their questioning on Yan Bugui, who was about to escape.
"Yan Laoxi, the police comrades are asking you questions. You must answer truthfully. If you dare to tell lies, the police comrades will take you away directly."
"Okay, I said, I said, Comrade Public Security, I came late, I don't know the cause of the matter, but I saw this comrade, that is, Mrs. Jia Zhang, holding her son in the photo..., was she I don't know about Yiguandao, but I think it is necessary to take her to the police station and ask her. If a normal person would do this, there must be something wrong with her.
"
Yan Bugui originally didn't want to get involved in this mess, but after hearing Jia Zhang's threat, he immediately changed his mind and took the initiative to explain what happened. However, everything he explained was not conducive to Jia Zhang. "
"Oh, Yan Laoxi, you are such a bastard, you lack virtue, I will fight with you."
Seeing Yan Bugui talking nonsense, Jia Zhang suddenly trembled with anger, opened her claws and scratched Yan Bugui's face.
"stop"
When the two policemen saw this, they quickly stopped Jia Zhang.
"Comrade Public Security Lies, I really am not consistent. You can't listen to his nonsense."
"Calm down"
"You are also the person in charge of this courtyard, right?
, tell me what happened. "
After appeasing Mrs. Jia and Zhang, the police changed the subject of questioning to Yi Zhonghai.
"Jia Zhang is done with it this time, hehe."
Everyone showed a gloating smile, feeling that Jia Zhang was going to be in bad luck this time. After all, Jia Zhang had just finished swearing in front of Yi Zhonghai's house. How could Yi Zhonghai say a good word for Jia Zhang.
But to everyone's surprise, Yi Zhonghai did not add insult to injury and kill everyone. Instead, he explained it to Jia Zhang and told him the whole story.
"Okay, we already know what happened. Comrade, your behavior..."
The police comrades who knew the truth gave Jia Zhang a stern warning. Although the facts showed that Jia Zhang was indeed not a consistent Taoist, the act of promoting feudal superstitious ideas was genuine and could be said to run counter to the current materialist values.
After being warned, Mrs. Jia Zhang naturally nodded repeatedly and tore down the decorations in her home in front of the police.
"This uncle is really very generous. He was even bullied at home and still managed to say nice things for Aunt Zhang. I wouldn't be able to do the same thing."
After the two police officers left, the neighbors who were watching the excitement also left. On the way back, Li Aifang expressed her admiration for Yi Zhonghai's generosity.
"Hahaha, how can he be so generous? There is nothing he can do about it. Although what Jia Zhang did is wrong and makes people hate her, she is indeed not consistent. Everyone knows this. If Yi Zhonghai told a lie in front of everyone today, so that would be the end of his role as a great uncle. Who would agree with a person who tells lies and continue to be a steward?
Moreover, even though Jia Zhang was so frightened that her legs were weak in the end, she actually still had a handle on Yi Zhonghai in her hand. With this handle in her hand, unless Yi Zhonghai wanted to die together, she would not put Jia Zhonghai to death. Zhang was sent to prison. "
Although today's result was beyond the expectations of the neighbors, it was within Liu Guangqi's control. It could even be said that it was carried out perfectly according to Liu Guangqi's plan.
"What handle?"
Li Aifang tilted her head and asked.
"Don't ask about this. It's not a good thing. I'm afraid it will dirty your ears."
Qin Huairu and Bai Mei on the side smiled, patted Li Aifang's arm and said.
Although not many people knew about Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang's affair, they couldn't hide it from the Liu family. Even people in the courtyard have guesses, and after this incident they are probably more certain.
"After all the trouble this time, I guess Aunt Zhang won't dare to make trouble anymore. This courtyard can finally live in peace."
Li Aifang let out a sigh of relief and said matter-of-factly.
"An Sheng? You think so. It won't take a few days for Jia and Zhang to show off their old ways again. The troubles they made in the past were no less serious than this one. They always behaved for a while and then became the same again. I guess this time Just stay honest for one more month."
"Ah, it's only been a month."
…
"What are you doing?"
After returning home and having a quick bite to eat, Liu Guangqi wandered around the yard. As he walked, he came to the big pit where the water pipes were repaired in the alley. He saw his sons gathered around and didn't know what they were doing. Liu Guangqi walked over quietly.
"We're putting things together here. Big."
Chen Jiahe raised his head and said.
"What are you fighting for? Let me see,"
With nothing to do, it would be nice to play with his son to enhance our relationship, so Liu Guangqi squatted down.
"Where did you get the broken porcelain pieces from?"
Liu Guangqi took a closer look and found that what they were playing with was actually a pile of broken porcelain pieces. According to his observation, these broken porcelain pieces were all old things, and the most recent ones were from the Jiaqing period.
"Picked out of these wastelands."
Chen Jiahe pointed to the pile of waste soil dug out for repairing the water pipe.
"I saw that these things were a bit similar to the things at home, so I asked them to pick them up and put them together to see if they could be put together."
"You're doing a good job. Go ahead and pick it up. Pick it up like this. When you're done, take it to my place and I'll buy you a pistol toy."
Liu Guangqi picked up the broken porcelain pieces and looked at them for a few times. He originally wanted to play with them, but he actually found a few interesting pieces. If he could put the pieces together and re-glue them together, it would be a masterpiece.
"real?"
"real."
"oh"
Hearing Liu Guangqi's words, several little guys shouted excitedly and began to rummage quickly under the illumination of the street lights in the alley.
"Be careful not to fall."
Looking at the bunch of lively little guys in front of him, Liu Guangqi smiled and warned, and then continued to wander.
"What have you guys done? You're acting like a monkey. It's so late and you don't go to bed quickly, or you'll get beaten."
"Da Da, I found it."
Facing Chen Xueru's scolding, several little guys ran to Liu Guangqi's study as if they hadn't heard.
"I found something, let me see."
Liu Guangqi patted the dirt on the little guys.
"That's right. Go back and wait. I'll buy you a small pistol tomorrow."
Looking at the pile of fragments on the desk, Liu Guangqi nodded.
"Thank you, sir."
After hearing this, several little guys jumped up and left Liu Guangqi's study room.
"Why didn't you leave, Jiahe."
After the little guys left, Liu Guangqu turned his attention to the pile of debris in front of him. After working so hard for so many days, it was time to change his mind. After taking a deep breath, Liu Guangqi slowly started picking. Soon, a nearly complete Yongzheng willow leaf vase fragment was placed in front of Liu Guangqi's eyes.
Just when Liu Guangqi was about to take out the tools to splice the pieces together, he suddenly found a person standing next to him.
"I want to see how you put things together."
Chen Jiahe looked at the fragments in front of Liu Guangqi and said.
"Why are you interested?"
Liu Guangqi pulled Chen Jiahe into his arms and touched his head and asked.
"Um"
Chen Jiahe nodded affirmatively.
"If you want to learn, I'll teach you. Just watch."
As Liu Guangqi's eldest son, Liu Guangqi naturally had nothing to hide, so he took out the tools and started on-site teaching. And in order to show off his skills in front of his son, Liu Guangqi also deliberately used several splicing techniques.
It was rare for a child to show interest in his craft of restoring antiques. Liu Guangqi would not let go of this opportunity. Interest is the best teacher for children.
And this is a craft after all. If the Liu family is in trouble one day, the Chen Jiahe can also rely on this craft to support their family. Hukou is not.
