Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

"Director Geng, I don't know what's going on..." Shang Hongqi didn't know how to explain.

"Leader, I saw it, let me tell you," a woman stood up.

"I know these two people. One is called He Yuzhu and he is a chef at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. The girl is called He Yushui and she is his sister. I heard that someone sent them eight years' worth of money, which had been kept by the Red Star Political Bureau. The two people came to ask for the money, but Director Shang refused to give it and wanted to kill him to silence him. He directly beat He Yuzhu out. Everyone at the scene saw it, including their internal staff. When He Yushui saw that the money was given and her brother was beaten like this, she hit her head against the wall." The woman explained what happened.

Other women said that this was exactly what they said; no internal staff came out to refute it, which indirectly proved that what the women said was correct.

"Director Shang, please explain," Director Geng Bo asked Shang Hongqi again.

"Director Geng, the institute never keeps the money sent to us, not even for a month, let alone eight years. I didn't hit him, I just pushed him gently," Shang Hongqi said with a look of grievance.

"With just a light push, it can fly seven or eight meters. Director Shang, you are really a remarkable person," said the woman who spoke just now sarcastically.

"What happened here? Zhao Chunyan, what are you doing here?" Wang Xiuqin and District Chief Wang came in.

The woman who spoke just now was Zhao Chunyan. She gave a brief account of what happened. After listening to her, District Chief Wang looked at Shang Hongqi.

Shang Hongqi is under a lot of pressure now and really doesn't know what to say.

"What happened to the person who was beaten?" asked District Chief Wang.

"He was sent to the hospital. He Yuzhu's neighbor happened to pass by here. It seems he was sent to the Sixth Hospital," said Zhao Chunyan.

"Let's go and take a look." After District Chief Wang left the post office, Wang Xiuqin, Geng Bo, Lin Hua, and Shang Hongqi all followed him. Especially Shang Hongqi, he felt that if he couldn't explain clearly in the hospital, his tenure as director would be over.

Jia Dongxu could not report because the director went to the Sixth Hospital, so Lin Hua asked him to report again tomorrow.

In the Sixth Hospital, He Yushui's head was bandaged and he was receiving an IV. He Yuzhu had blood at the corner of his mouth and was lying on the bed, with Zhang Dabao accompanying him.

The door of the ward opened, and Shang Hongqi, anxious as he was, was the first to enter the ward. On the way there, he thought for a long time. The money he had been keeping was not even eight years old, let alone eight years. The institute had a system, so he was not afraid at all. Now it was a matter of beating people, and he wanted He Yuzhu to forgive him.

"Master He" Shang Hongqi greeted him after coming in.

He Yuzhu looked up and saw that it was Shang Hongqi. He immediately rolled off the hospital bed and knelt on the ground. "Director Shang, we don't want the money sent from Baoding. We were wrong. Please forgive us. I don't dare to take it again. Please don't hit me. My sister is still young." He Yuzhu kowtowed as he spoke, and in the end he actually lay on the ground and burst into tears.

"Director Shang, Brother Zhuzi is afraid of you. Why don't you go back first?" Zhang Dabao walked over and gestured for Shang Hongqi to go out.

"Master He, no, I..." Shang Hongqi didn't know what to say.

"I just want to get back the money my father sent us; I just wanted to use it to marry a wife. I was wrong. I don't dare to do it again. I don't want it anymore," He Yuzhu said while still crying.

Shang Hongqi was pushed out of the ward by Zhang Dabao.

At this time, District Chief Wang and others saw He Yuzhu's condition, so they lifted the foot that had stepped into the ward and walked out again. They did not enter the ward, but stood in the corridor, looking at Shang Hongqi.

"Director Shang, it seems that you work very hard on a daily basis. It's not easy for the people to be so afraid of you. The organization should make use of you. After all, there are more cadres like you after the founding of New China. I often encountered them in the old society." District Chief Wang was almost unable to suppress his anger.

"Da Biao, come out," Wang Xiuqin called her nephew from outside and explained to District Chief Wang and others, "The person taking care of the patient is my sister's son. I'll ask him."

When Zhang Dabao heard his aunt calling him, he left the ward and closed the door.

"Auntie, leaders," Zhang Dabao greeted everyone.

"What's the situation with Da Biao and He Yuzhu?" Wang Xiuqin asked.

"He Yuzhu was hit hard in the chest and vomited blood after coming to the hospital. The doctor said it might be internal bleeding. He Yushui hit his head against the wall. He has been bandaged, but he has not woken up yet. Whether he can wake up or not, the doctor said it depends on his individual condition." Zhang Dabao explained the situation of the two.

"Director Shang, it seems that he has practiced martial arts before, and his blows are quite heavy. This is the person you serve, not your enemy. Can you tell me what mistake He Yuzhu made?" said District Chief Wang.

Shang Hongqi doesn’t even know how to explain it now.

"Da Biao, why? He Yuzhu is talking about money, where does the money come from?" Wang Xiuqin asked again.

"Didn't Zhuzi's father go to Baoding, Hebei in his early years? Since Yushui is not an adult yet, he sends them five yuan a month as living expenses. It has been eight years, and she hasn't received a penny until now. A few days ago, a fellow villager from the Baoding Post Office came over. Zhuzi was having dinner with him at the time and talked about this matter. The fellow villager was very enthusiastic. After returning, he checked it out and found that it was true. All 480 yuan had been deducted for eight years. So Zhuzi and his sister went to the post office to ask, but they were beaten unexpectedly. Alas!" After saying this, Zhang Dabao let out a long sigh of relief.

Shang Hongqi now understood what happened. He thought about it again and again and came to a horrible fact, "Yi Zhonghai, fuck your ancestors," Shang Hongqi cursed Yi Zhonghai.

"Shang Hongqi, is this true?" Deputy Director Geng Bo was so angry that he could no longer suppress his anger.

"Director Geng, I remember now. This happened, but the money and the letter were all taken away by Yi Zhonghai from their hospital. Who would have thought that he embezzled it all and didn't give anyone a penny? Yi Zhonghai is such a beast." Shang Hongqi now wanted to kill Yi Zhonghai.

"Is Yi Zhonghai suitable for the position? Does it comply with regulations? Did you two set up a scheme and divide the money?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"If I take a penny, I will be as broke as Yi Zhonghai," Shang Hongqi swore.

"Does God care about crime? Poor He Yuzhu and He Yushui, they both thought He Daqing didn't care about them. He abruptly severed the family relationship between the father and children of the He family. He has no humanity at all," Zhang Dabao said again.

"I can confront Yi Zhonghai," said Shang Hongqi.

"Xiao Li, go to the steel rolling mill and find Yi Zhonghai and bring him to the street office," Wang Xiuqin said to a staff member beside her.

"Let's all go to the street office, and Deputy Director Geng should come with us. Let's try to get things done today. There are too many ordinary people here today, and it would be bad if any rumors get out. Da Biao, please send us off," said Wang Xiuqin.

Everyone came out of the hospital and went to the street office. Zhang Dabao opened the motorcycle compartment and let a few unimportant and playful leaders sit on it. The others took District Chief Wang's car and went to the Hongxing Street Office.
