Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1137 Fake Accounts
Why did those people leave him alone and dare not change his test paper? It was probably because his parents were old employees of the factory, and they were afraid that his parents would find out something was wrong and make a fuss, which would then be embarrassing for everyone.

Director Li only knew that his whole family lived in the staff quarters.

But they didn’t know that in order to make the family closer, they could meet each other often.

His uncles and aunts who worked in government departments also refused other accommodations arranged by the county and found ways to live in the two buildings allocated to the government departments.

If something really happened, it wouldn't just be their family that would be in trouble, but all of their two clans would be caught in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this possibility, Secretary Lin couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat and felt a little creepy.

Looking at his expression, Director Li knew what he had guessed, and just whispered, "It's not certain yet, don't spread it."

I won't say more. That night, Secretary Lin was extremely anxious at home, contrary to his usual calmness.

He sometimes stood up and sometimes sat down, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, as if he was a frightened bird. His eyes were always fixed on the position of his family. He was extremely sensitive to any slight movement, and even wanted to jump up and flee the scene with his family at the slightest sound.

Seeing her son like this, Lin's mother couldn't help but feel a little worried.

She asked softly, "Did something happen?"

Secretary Lin shook his head subconsciously, but he couldn't hide his inner uneasiness.

No one knows a son better than his mother. Seeing him like this, your mother's heart skipped a beat and her face became serious. She stared at her son and said, "Tell me the truth, did you make any mistakes?"

Seeing that her son still kept silent, Lin's mother became anxious: "What's the matter? Just tell us. Our family will help to find a solution. If your father and I can't do it, we can ask your uncle for help. Just tell us. Why are you just sitting here and doing nothing?"

Secretary Lin saw that his mother was anxious, and Director Li’s instructions came to his mind.

He hesitated for a moment and replied hesitantly: "It's okay, it's really okay."

This matter has not been confirmed yet. What if it is false? If he says it out now, wouldn't it be just to cause panic and make the whole family restless?

Instead of doing this, it would be better to ask Dad in private later.

Mother Lin glared at her son and said unhappily, "You're fine like this, why are you trying to coax me? I'm not going to tell anyone."

Under the pressure from Lin's mother, Secretary Lin hesitated for a long time before asking, "Mom, do you think our house is safe?"

"How can it be unsafe? Our building has only been built for a few years?" Lin's mother argued subconsciously.

He turned his head as if he thought of something and looked suddenly at his son.

She knew her son well, and knew that he was not the kind of person who would talk nonsense, let alone be so entangled.

Looking at her son's face, Lin's mother also became a little suspicious.

After this suspicion, Lin's mother suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Lin's father was originally reading a newspaper, and he only glanced at the conversation between mother and son from time to time.

Hearing this, Father Lin's face changed, he put down the newspaper in his hand, and asked seriously: "Did you hear something?"

Seeing this, Secretary Lin stopped hiding it. He whispered, "This matter is still uncertain, Dad and Mom, don't tell anyone."

Mother Lin rolled her eyes again: "You still don't trust me, your parents are much more reliable than you, we know what is important."

At this time, the expressions of the two men were relatively normal, but they seemed a little serious as if they had guessed something.

However, when they heard that it was impossible that half of the money for building houses in the family compound had been embezzled, Lin's father and mother's faces changed instantly.

In panic, Father Lin's hand shook and the porcelain jar in his hand fell directly to the ground.

After a while, he seemed to have thought of something and began to mutter to himself: "No wonder, no wonder!"

Secretary Lin's eyes lit up, and he looked at his father and asked, "Dad, have you thought of something?"

Father Lin looked around and signaled his daughter-in-law to close the window.

Lin's mother ran to the door, locked it directly, closed the windows and drew the curtains.

The whole family gathered around the table, staring at Lin Fu.

Father Lin didn't look at his wife and daughter, but kept staring at the table, as if there was some secret engraved on it.

Just when Lin's mother was about to get impatient and wanted to urge him, Lin's father said leisurely: "A new accountant came to my place some time ago. He is young and doesn't know how to keep accounts. This year's account books have been submitted for review, and I really can't find anything for him to learn for the time being.

But I couldn’t just sit there doing nothing, so I thought of going to the warehouse to borrow two account books from previous years and letting him learn from them first.

At that time, Lao Feng didn't have time to help me look for it, so he let me in and let me search it myself. I picked up two account books from the previous two years.

Lao Feng hadn't come back yet, so I couldn't register. I just waited for a while.

I was bored, so I flipped through the account books of previous years. I didn’t know how I came across the account book from the early days of the factory. I curiously opened it and found… something was wrong.”

"What do you mean?" Lin's mother asked in disbelief.

They were the first batch of workers in the factory. It can be said that they watched the factory being built, so naturally they have different feelings towards the factory.

Logically speaking, given the current situation in the factory, it would be best for them not to help either side.

After all, according to their qualifications, as long as they don’t make any major mistakes, any leader who comes to power will have no reason or excuse to find fault with them.

It is because they have feelings for the factory that they cannot stand Deputy Director Liu's behavior of harming the public interest for personal gain, and they cannot stand these people forming cliques, suppressing newcomers, and committing work fraud... which makes the factory a mess. So after they were sure of Director Li's temper, they encouraged their son to become Director Li's secretary.

It is because they know that only by clearing out these parasites can the factory continue to develop.

"You also know that my master taught me how to keep accounts. I studied with him for three years, the longest among all of us brothers, so I noticed many of his habits. When he kept accounts, he had a habit of subconsciously putting a dot at the end of each page, and he never made an exception."

At this point, Father Lin's face looked a little strange. He lowered his voice and continued, "I looked at the account book from when we were in the family compound. Although the handwriting on it was very similar to the master's, there was no dot at the end of each page."

Father Lin's face began to turn ugly. He said angrily, "Those account books were not made by the master back then. Someone imitated the master's handwriting and made fake account books."

After hearing this, Lin's mother and Secretary Lin widened their eyes.
