Siheyuan: I just want to live

Chapter 269: The Old Man Who Doesn’t Know 1 Question 3

Then, two staff members pressed Jia Zhang to the ground.

Jia Zhang, who was pinned to the ground, continued to twist her body and kept shouting, "Let me go, let me go! Why are you arresting me?"

Director Wang looked at the bag that fell from Jia Zhang's body. Because Jia Zhang did not tie the bag, some of the white flour inside spilled out from the opening of the bag.

Director Wang looked at the spilled flour and the anger on her face grew even more intense when she was about to scold Jia Zhang.

Then Jia Zhangshi was heard shouting to Yi Zhonghai who had just followed in, "Old Yi! Please save me! They are unreasonable! They are bullying a widow!"

Yi Zhonghai was also stunned when he saw the scene in front of him, but he quickly reacted and hurried to Jia Zhang's side, trying to help her up. But the staff held Jia Zhang tightly and prevented her from getting up.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Director Wang helplessly and said, "Director Wang, what's going on? Why don't you just talk it out? Is there some misunderstanding here?"

Director Wang sneered, pointed at the flour spilled on the ground and the fish and sausages still hanging on Jia Zhang's body, and said, "Master Yi, come and take a look, what is this? The criminal has been caught red-handed, and you still tell me this is a misunderstanding?"

Yi Zhonghai took a look at the flour on the ground and the things on Jia Zhang's body. His heart suddenly sank. He knew that Jia Zhang had been caught by Director Wang and could not cover it up.

He sighed, and then said to Jia Zhang sternly: "Jia Zhang, how could you do such a thing? Do you know that this is a crime?"

When Jia Zhang heard this, she immediately cried out, "Old Yi, I can't do anything! There is no food at home, and the children are starving."

"I just wanted to get some food for the kids. I really had no other choice! Otherwise I wouldn't have done this!"

Yi Zhonghai looked a little better when he heard Jia Zhangshi say that. Fortunately, Jia Zhangshi really found a better excuse for herself and didn't directly say that she stole because she saw no one at Chen Feng's house.

However, he still pretended to criticize Jia Zhang harshly: "Jia Zhang, no matter what, you shouldn't steal. Now that it has happened, we must face reality."

When Jia Zhang heard what Yi Zhonghai said, she pleaded with him on the ground: "Old Yi, please help me! I don't want to be taken away. My child is still young and needs my care!"

Seeing that the situation was almost serious, Yi Zhonghai smiled and said to Director Wang, "Director Wang, Jia Zhang did do something wrong, but she was helpless. Can you give her a chance?"

"Director Wang, look! This thing is still here, and Jia Zhangshi hasn't taken it away yet. How about we put it back and pretend nothing happened?"

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Director Wang's face became extremely gloomy. She widened her eyes and looked at Yi Zhonghai in disbelief, with anger and disappointment surging in her heart.

She never thought that Yi Zhonghai would want to cover up the fact that Jia Zhang stole things from Chen Feng's house so easily.

What made her even more angry was that Yi Zhonghai dared to do this in front of her. If she was not present today, wouldn't Yi Zhonghai's handling of this matter be more casual and hasty?

Based on the way and attitude he dealt with Jia Zhang today, who knows how many times similar situations have happened in this courtyard? And how many people have been treated unfairly because of this?

Director Wang originally believed that the people in this courtyard got along well with each other and neighbors helped each other. As an uncle, Yi Zhonghai should set an example and maintain the harmonious atmosphere in the courtyard.

But now it seems that everything is an illusion. Could it be that the so-called "advanced" in this courtyard was obtained through such means?

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes today, she would still have been kept in the dark and mistakenly believed that this yard was as beautiful as it appeared.

Director Wang frowned and stared at Yi Zhonghai with a gloomy face, dissatisfaction and anger flashing in her eyes. She asked coldly: "Yi Zhonghai, is this what you call management style? Do you think this kind of behavior can be tolerated?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Director Wang in astonishment, his face full of disbelief.

He originally thought that Director Wang would understand him. After all, in the courtyard, everyone was a neighbor who knew each other every day, so there was no need to make things too awkward.

Well~except for the unsociable Chen Feng.

However, it now seems that Director Wang does not intend to let this matter go easily.

Yi Zhonghai has not yet realized that he might be overconfident. He originally thought that with the prestige he had accumulated in the courtyard over the years, he could easily resolve today's matter.

But the reality dealt him a heavy blow, forcing him to re-examine his judgment.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai felt extremely embarrassed and he didn't know how to respond to Director Wang's questioning.

His mind was in a mess, trying to find a reasonable explanation, but he found that he couldn't find a suitable reason.

In order to save Jia Zhang, Yi Zhonghai finally said to Director Wang: "Director Wang! Jia Zhang's case is not a big deal. Let's focus on education!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely teach Jia Zhang a lesson later and make her realize her mistakes!"

However, when Director Wang heard Yi Zhonghai say so lightly that it was not a big deal, his anger was immediately ignited and he burst out uncontrollably.

She widened her eyes and yelled at Yi Zhonghai: "This is not a big deal? Then Yi Zhonghai, tell me, what is a big deal?"

Director Wang's voice echoed in the room like thunder, shocking everyone present.

Yi Zhonghai was so frightened that he trembled all over and his face turned very ugly. He didn't expect Director Wang to be so angry and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Director Wang looked at Yi Zhonghai and continued, "Isn't it a big deal that Jia Zhang stole something? This behavior seriously violates morality and law. If it is not dealt with seriously, how can we warn Siheyuan in the future?"

Yi Zhonghai lowered his head, a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. He knew he was in the wrong, but he didn't want Jia Zhang to be punished too severely, after all, they were "neighbors" in the same courtyard.

Yi Zhonghai nodded helplessly. He understood that Director Wang was really angry this time, and begging for mercy would probably only make things worse.

He could only pray silently, hoping that Jia Zhang would not be treated too harshly by Director Wang.

However, he also knew in his heart that Jia Zhang was doomed this time. After all, she was caught on the spot by Director Wang, and he could not save her even if he wanted to.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help feeling helpless.

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai stopped talking, Director Wang stopped arguing with him about the issue of Jia Zhang.

We’ll talk about the Jia Zhang family’s matter later. Now let’s deal with the Chen Feng family’s matter first.

Director Wang pointed at the door of Chen Feng's house and asked Yi Zhonghai: "Yi Zhonghai, what's going on? Where is Chen Feng?"

When Yi Zhonghai saw Director Wang pointing at Chen Feng's door and asking him, he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

He didn't know how to answer this question, although he knew what happened in Chen Feng's family. But he couldn't tell Director Wang directly, after all, Sha Zhu was also involved in Chen Feng's family affairs.

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "I...I don't know! I just got here not long ago and haven't had time to see it yet."

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Director Wang's anger flared up again. He was so angry that his face turned red, and he pointed his finger at Yi Zhonghai's nose and cursed.

"Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai, what on earth do you do for a living? Look at the yard you manage! There are actually thieves who brazenly go to other people's homes to steal things! How can this be tolerated?"

Then, Director Wang said angrily: "The door of the martyr's family's house has been demolished. Don't you know? What do you do every day? How do you manage this yard?"

After scolding Yi Zhonghai, Director Wang turned around, stared at Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong sternly, and asked loudly: "Yi Zhonghai doesn't know what happened, do you two know? Also, where is Chen Feng?"

When Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong saw Director Wang asking them, they looked at each other, and finally Yan Fugui spoke up: "Director Wang, we don't know what's going on with Chen Feng's family."

"I just saw Chen Feng taking the children out, I don't know where he went!"

Director Wang was very dissatisfied when he heard what Yan Fugui said. The three uncles in charge of this hospital were simply useless. They knew nothing and none of them were useful.

However, Director Wang still heard some useful words from Yan Fugui. At least now she knew that Chen Feng was not taken away by those soldiers, but went out on his own.

As for where Chen Feng went, no one knows.

Just as she was about to ask more questions, she suddenly heard a noise coming from outside. She looked up and saw a group of people in police uniforms rushing into the backyard. Leading them was Chief Zhang of the police station, who looked around with a serious face.

Director Zhang spotted Director Wang standing there. He strode over and asked anxiously, "Director Wang, we are here. Where are the people who attacked the martyrs' families?"

Director Wang frowned and replied helplessly: "Alas, we are too late, they have already run away."

“What! Ran away?”

Director Zhang's eyes widened and he said angrily, "When did they run away? Director Wang, do you know who they are? I'll go catch them now."

Director Wang sighed, then pointed to the tied man and said, "I don't know either."

Director Wang then pointed at Jia Zhang and said, "However, we caught a thief who took advantage of the situation and now we hand him over to you."

Director Zhang looked at Jia Zhang, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. He didn't say anything more, and waved his hand to signal his men to take Jia Zhang away.
