Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

"Brother Zhuzi, Brother Damao, are you going to school?" Yan Jiedi was a little puzzled when she saw Banggeng and Niu Xiaozheng taking He Yuzhu and Xu Damao towards the school.

"There is a legal issue that Damao wants to discuss with the school leaders," He Yuzhu said to Yan Jiedi.

"Legal question?" Yan Jiedi was shocked. It was a very high-sounding question, wasn't it? Did a projectionist know the law?

"What do you mean? You don't believe it?" He Yuzhu asked when he saw Yan Jiedi's open mouth.

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I haven't thought about it," said Yan Jiedi.

"I believe in Brother Damao. The day before yesterday, he came back from the countryside and gave me three walnuts," said Yan Jiekuang.

Yan Jiedi was even more confused. She really didn’t understand what the relationship was between walnuts and the law?

Xu Damao patted his briefcase, smiled and said nothing. Xu Damao knew that even if he told them 10,000 times, it would not be as credible as letting them see it once.

A group of six people came to the school. Xu Damao and He Yuzhu went directly to the principal's office. There was a couple in their thirties and a middle-aged woman in her forties in the principal's office. It seemed that they were the family members of Kangnian and Zhao Jin.

"Hello, principal. I am Jia Geng's great uncle, and this is Niu Xiaozheng's uncle. The children asked you to come to the principal's office, so here we are." He Yuzhu greeted the principal and nodded to the other three people.

"Hello, please take a seat. There were some misunderstandings among the four children yesterday, which resulted in Kangnian and Zhao Jin suffering varying degrees of injuries. We are sitting together to discuss this matter," said the principal.

"Principal Hong, our Kangnian's eyes are still closed and his head is broken. I feel this is not a misunderstanding but intentional injury," said the middle-aged woman in her forties.

"Kangnian's mother is right, Principal. Xiaojin's eyes are now red and swollen, and his hair is gone. He is now bald. These two first-grade children are so hateful," the woman in her thirties also spoke.

"If you have any requests, please raise them," Xu Damao also spoke.

The principal did not expect that Niu Xiaozheng's uncle was so easy to talk to, which stunned Kangnian's mother and Zhao Jin's mother.

"We must provide medical treatment for our Kangnian and compensate for the losses," said Kangnian's mother.

"That's what we ask for too," Zhao Jin's mother also said.

"How much compensation is planned to be required?" Xu Damao spoke again.

"Fifty yuan, twenty yuan for medical treatment, and thirty yuan for nutrition expenses later," said Jiang Kangnian's mother.

"What about you?" Xu Damao asked Zhao Jin's parents.

"We want fifty yuan too." Zhao Jin's parents looked at each other, and Zhao Jin's mother spoke.

"I agree. I will give the money to the principal first. You sign the agreement first. Receiving the money means that you have forgiven Jia Geng and Niu Xiaozheng for beating your child, and you will not pursue their responsibility anymore. This is the agreement I drafted. Now write down fifty yuan as compensation. If you see no problem, please sign it and the principal will give you the money." Xu Damao counted out a hundred yuan from his briefcase and handed it to the principal. Then he took out two pieces of paper and handed them to Jiang Kangnian and Zhao Jin's parents.

The three of them looked at each other. They didn't expect that the matter could be resolved so easily. The child's parents would not come, and the matter was entrusted to two outsiders. Can outsiders save money for you?

The parents of Jiang Kangnian and Zhao Jin were also junior cadres in the unit. They took the agreement and looked at it. They found no problems and signed it. Then Xu Damao asked the principal to sign it as well and asked the families of the two families to write receipts for the money. He read all the materials, put them in a briefcase, and handed them to He Yuzhu.

"You have nothing to do now. Principal, this is what happened yesterday when Jia Geng and Niu Xiaozheng were robbed on the street. You are also an insider, and I hope you can go to the Hongxing Police Station to testify, and of course to the kind-hearted teacher from yesterday. There were several students watching at the time, and we will ask them to help testify later." Xu Damao said to the principal.

"Uncle Niu Xiaozheng, isn't this matter understood?" the principal asked in confusion. The parents of Jiang Kangnian and Zhao Jin, who had originally wanted to leave, turned around and sat down again.

"I understand part of it. Jia Geng and Niu Xiaozheng were suspected of excessive self-defense, but now we have obtained the forgiveness of the injured families, and their case is settled. They have no legal responsibility. But we don't know the whole story of the two of them being robbed at gunpoint," said Xu Damao.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Kangnian's mother was angry and slammed the table.

"It's meaningless. We just want to bring the criminals to justice. According to the provisions of our country's criminal law, the facts of armed robbery committed by Jiang Kangnian and Zhao Jin are clear and the evidence is conclusive. According to the law, the two should be sentenced to three years in prison. However, they are minors and should not be imprisoned. They should be sent to juvenile detention centers for education. This is a good thing. You parents can't do anything about it, so let the state do it for you," Xu Damao said to the parents of Jiang Kangnian and Zhao Jin.

"Oh my god, are you kidding us?" Jiang Kangnian's mother was very angry and stood on the table.

"I have no intention of teasing you at all. Combating crime and maintaining social order is the responsibility and obligation of every citizen. You don't have to thank me. You can thank our great motherland, which not only helps you educate your children, but also gives them a chance to start over," Xu Damao said seriously.

"You..." Jiang Kangnian's mother wanted to rush over and hit Xu Damao, but was pulled back by Zhao Jin's father. He now realized that this matter was going to be a big trouble.

"Brother, I've thought about it. It's just a fight between children. It's a bit too much to ask for compensation. We may have a big fight here, but they will make up in a couple of days. Children's friendship develops quickly." Zhao Jin's father asked his wife to take out fifty yuan.

"No, let's put it one thing at a time. No matter who it is, if they make a mistake, they must be punished. Jia Geng and Niu Xiaozheng are seven years old this year. When they were in danger, they used peppers to hit the criminals, which was completely reasonable and legal. However, after they stopped the crime, they hit the bad guys with bricks, which was also illegal. Fortunately, you forgave them.

But they will also be punished, each person has to pay 50 yuan, which is not a small amount. Can their parents forgive them? Especially Jia Geng's grandmother, Mr. He's aunt, is very famous in our street. She has a very bad temper and beats the children without any restraint. Maybe even the father of the child will be beaten," said Xu Damao.
