The courtyard fell into a dead silence. Ji Sanlin, who was standing in the middle, was trembling all over, and the expression on his face gradually became angry.

At this time, Ji Bingqing, who was standing behind, suddenly took a step forward and mustered up the courage to say: "Uncle Third, if what the report letter says is true, Aunt Three will go to the city today and I'm afraid she won't come back again." Now, please go back to the house and see if the money is still there?"

"Yes, third child, hurry up and go see it."

When money was mentioned, Mrs. Ji suddenly came back to her senses and pushed Ji Sanlin emotionally into the house.

The mother and son rushed into the house, followed closely by Old Man Ji. Others in the Ji family also gathered around, but they all stood at the door and watched.

"No, not a penny."

Soon, the old woman Ji screamed hysterically, and the old man Ji roared: "Look more carefully, Hongyu, Shufen, you two come in and help search, hurry up and search."

A few of them turned the house upside down. Except for the change in Ji Sanlin's pocket, there was not a penny left in the house.

Tao Lan's clothes in the cabinet, except for some worn and patched ones, were all taken away. Even the gifts from the Zhao family when they went to the city for a blind date last time were all taken away, not even a candy left.

This time the Ji family was in complete disarray. Mrs. Ji and Ji Sanlin, mother and son, cursed loudly, letting out all the bad words in their stomachs.

Both mother and son were so angry that they didn't care about anything else. They didn't expect to cover up the scandal in the family. Others wanted to suppress it, but they couldn't bear the mother and son's loud voices and bad tempers, which made the Ji family lively. Within half a day, the whole commune knew about it.

When Ji Shengli was called back, the matter had already spread. As soon as he arrived home, he went into a rage and almost pointed at his grandma and third uncle's faces and scolded him.

"You want to cover up other people's scandals and not let outsiders know, but you yell and tell all outsiders at the top of your lungs, for fear that others will not know."

"Did you have pig manure in your brain?"

"Don't you find it embarrassing?"

"Every day when things happen to you, you just yell, scream, and scold. Now it's become known to everyone that the Ji family's face has been thrown to the ground and trampled by others. Are you satisfied?"

Being pointed at the nose and scolded by the junior, Mrs. Ji and Ji Sanlin felt very uncomfortable, but they did not choke on him and had no shame to choke on him.

Ji Shengli had just heard his brother talk about family affairs on the way back, and he asked through gritted teeth: "How much do you know about Ji Meini's in-laws? Tell me everything you know."

"The surname is Zhao, and his name is Zhao Dongxu. His uncle is the secretary of the Municipal Forestry Bureau. Zhao Dongxu works in a forest farm. I don't know which forest farm it is." Ji Sanlin did not dare to delay and quickly told him everything he knew.

"Is that all?" Ji Shengli said sharply.

"Only, that's all I know."

Ji Sanlin was a little scared when he saw him now. He thought of what Tong Shuji said before they left, and told him: "Tong Shuji said that Tao Lan's bitch concubine is named Sui Jiangbo."

Ji Shengli had long been sure it was him, and told them through gritted teeth: "Sui Jiangbo is the former vice president of the County Revolutionary Committee. He does not work in a special confidential unit at all. He was dismissed for violating discipline at the beginning of this year."

"What?" Ji's family was shocked again.

"Third uncle, you have lived your whole life in a muddle. You are so stupid that you were fooled around without even realizing it. What Ji Luo said is right. Having a blood relative like you brings us the worst luck in our lives." Ji Shengli was full of anger. After roaring at him, he turned around and walked out.

"Shengli, where are you going?" Old Man Ji immediately got up and chased after him.

Ji Shengli walked out without looking back, but answered him: "I'm going to check on Jimimei's husband's family. What they said back home may be false. You may have been deceived by them."

"This damn bastard, I will tear her to pieces." Old Mrs. Ji collapsed on the ground and howled again.

"Stop barking."

Old Man Ji was ready to tear her heart to pieces now. He was so angry that he ordered his two sons: "Boss, second brother, follow Shengli to the city quickly to help him."

The Ji Dalin brothers had no choice but to follow them immediately. Ji Sanlin didn't know what he was thinking, so he quickly got up and followed them in a hurry.

The men from the Ji family came to the county town to investigate. Tong Shuji and others had already found Sui Jiangbo's home and met him in person.

Sui Jiangbo is packing his luggage at home, and Fang Qiuhe's job is being handed over. He will leave his job in two days, and they will move to the city in the future.

"Old boy, Xiao Jiang, why are you here today?"

Sui Jiangbo poured them a cup of tea, looking calm and indifferent, with a smile on his face when he received them.

Tong Shuji looked at the things in the room and asked casually: "Are you packing your luggage to go to your son's house in the city?"

"Yes, after Qiu He's work is handed over, we will move to the city."

Sui Jiangbo knew that they came to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason, and he also knew the purpose of their coming here. He took the initiative to ask: "You two are not idlers. It is also working time now. You are not working in the unit. Why did you come to visit me? What happened?" Something?"

"There is indeed something that I need to find out from you."

Tong Shuji was quite polite to him. Even though he was an ordinary person now, he had some knowledge of his connections and background.

"Old boy, we are all old acquaintances. Let's get straight to the point." Sui Jiangbo's attitude was very easy-going.

Tong Shuji twitched his lips and asked, "Comrade Sui Jiangbo, do you know a woman named Tao Lan?"

"I know her. I met her this morning. Why do you suddenly ask about her?"

Sui Jiangbo has been immersed in officialdom for more than 20 years, and has long been self-taught and trained to become a perfectly qualified actor. The expressions on his face are performed so well that outsiders can't see any abnormalities at all.

He answered frankly that he knew Tao Lan. As Tong Shu-Ji expected, he asked again: "What is your relationship with Tao Lan?"

"They are cousins ​​in name, but not actually related by blood."

Tong Shu-Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and continued to ask: "What should I say? Can you tell me about your affairs in detail?"

Sui Jiangbo smiled when he heard this, "Who is this talking nonsense behind your back?"

"again?"

Children's Book-Ji captured the keyword, "Did anyone else say anything?"

"This morning I went to the station to meet Tao Lan. At that time, I heard her stepdaughter saying that the girl must have heard people's nonsense and misunderstood our relationship. I explained to her at the time, but she didn't listen and got angry. After leaving, I thought I wouldn't be afraid of the shadow being distorted if I was upright, so I didn't catch up with him to explain."
