Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

At noon in the cafeteria, everyone was eating while talking about Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu's family. Thanks to Liu Lan's efforts, their deeds spread throughout the steel mill in just one morning and began to spread outside the steel mill, causing a sensation.

In the steel mill office, Li Huaide had just returned from a business trip and heard about this from his secretary.

"If there are problems with the workers in our factory, we should show proper concern and severely punish those who make mistakes. As for women and children, we should check to see if they have any difficulties at home and take care of them if we can," Li Huaide said pretentiously.

Secretary Li understood Li Huaide's meaning instantly.

Li Huaide was also thinking about the beautiful young wife he saw in the hospital. She was graceful and elegant. Now she had become a beautiful young widow, and he was itching to marry her. Finally, he got the chance.

"But I heard that he stole Master He's money, and Master He wants to send his son to jail. How are we going to explain to Master He if we help Qin Huairu?" Secretary Li asked.

"What does helping Qin Huairu have to do with Master He? I am taking care of Qin Huairu's family because they are having financial difficulties. I will not violate the law. Master He only needs to handle the result and he won't care about anything else. Anyway, according to the information you have inquired, Qin Huairu's child will definitely be sentenced," Li Huaide explained.

When Secretary Li heard what Li Huaide said, he knew that he only cared about Widow Qin and didn't care about anything else.

Li Huaide was also thinking that if he could take advantage of Qin Huairu, he would do so, after all, the young widow was still very beautiful. However, it would not be worth it if he had to offend He Yuzhu for Qin Huairu, as He Yuzhu was now his capable subordinate and many banquets could not do without him.

"When Qin Huairu goes to work in the next two days, call her over so I can have a good talk with her and show her concern," Li Huaide instructed the secretary.

"I understand, Director," Secretary Li nodded and agreed.

On the other hand, the police station interrogated Yi Zhonghai: "Yi Zhonghai, tell me the truth about how you embezzled the money of He Yuzhu and his sister."

"Comrade Public Security, I did not embezzle his money, I just kept it for him," Yi Zhonghai argued.

When the police heard this, they slammed the table.

"Yi Zhonghai, you are talking nonsense. You were keeping his living expenses for him, but he still starved to death," the police said, not believing him.

"Yi Zhonghai will be treated leniently if he confesses and severely if he resists. Tell the truth immediately," the police saw that Yi Zhonghai was not telling the truth and handcuffed him to the wall in a half-squatting position.

After about an hour, Yi Zhonghai could not bear it any longer and shouted, "Public Security Comrades, let me go. My waist is about to break. I will confess."

This time Yi Zhonghai confessed honestly how he withheld He Yuzhu's money, but in the end he still said that he was keeping it for them.

“How did you trick the people at the post office into trusting you and giving you the money?

"I just told the people at the post office that He Yuzhu and his sister were still young and it was inconvenient for them to carry money. I was the eldest uncle in the yard, and his father asked me to take care of them. The postman gave me the money and the letter."

Looking at Yi Zhonghai's righteous face, the police officer who was interrogating him wanted to beat him up. After the police sorted out the interrogation record and asked Yi Zhonghai to sign it, he felt very dissatisfied, so he sent Yi Zhonghai to a crowded detention room, gave a wink to the person detained inside, and left.

Ever since Yi Zhonghai and Banggeng were arrested, Yi Zhonghai's aunt went to the police station every day to inquire about the news, and Jia's Qin Huairu also ran around trying to get people to release her son.

The rest of the people in the courtyard were very quiet these days. Except for Xu Damao, Uncle Sanda and a few others who could still chat with He Yuzhu, the others didn't dare to speak loudly when they saw He Yuzhu for fear of being punished, and He Yuzhu was happy to be quiet.

That evening, when He Yuzhu got off work and returned to the courtyard, he saw Director Li from the Street Office and several clerks standing at the door waiting for everyone to come back. After get off work, the people came back in twos and threes, and when they saw Director Li's serious face, they all went to the central courtyard to gather.

"Has Qin Huairu arrived, and Yi Zhonghai's wife?" Director Li asked.

Everyone looked around but didn't see Qin Huairu.

"Qin Huairu should be at home. I didn't see her go out today," said the third aunt.

Director Li instructed a clerk, "Xiao Wang, go to Jia's house and call Qin Huairu over."

"Qin Huairu, Director Li is waiting for you for a meeting," said Clerk Wang, knocking on the Jia family's door.

When Qin Huairu, who had been hiding at home and had never gone out, saw Director Li coming to the courtyard, she knew she could no longer hide. She asked Xiaodang to take care of Huaihua at home and went to the general meeting alone.

Looking at Qin Huairu and the middle-aged woman standing in the front row, Director Li said with a serious expression, "Qin Huairu, how did you educate your child? He actually stole things and money and was finally arrested by the police station. Your son is really an honor and a great addition to our street."

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu said with tears in her eyes: "Director Li, I am too busy at work every day to discipline my child. Please give me another chance. I will educate my child well. Please plead with the police."

Upon hearing this, Director Li said unhappily, "Educate him well? How can you educate him well? I heard that Director He has given him several chances. How will you educate him when you go home?"

"I've told him many times that these are just trivial matters. Why did he have to go to the police station?" Qin Huairu said crying.

"Stealing things is a small matter. We can just go back and talk about it and it will be over," Director Li said in disbelief.

"Yan Fugui, Liu Haizhong, what will you do if the children of your two families are found stealing things? What will you do if they refuse to change despite repeated warnings?" Director Li asked the second and third uncles.

Yan Fugui stepped forward and said, "If you find my child stealing something, you will beat him up. The habit of stealing cannot be tolerated. This is a moral issue."

"It's the same in my family. If a child doesn't change his ways after repeated warnings, we'll just break his legs. It's better to keep him at home than to embarrass him in the outside world," Liu Haizhong said as he glanced at his son.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, who were looked at by Liu Haizhong, couldn't help but shiver when they looked at their father.

"Qin Huairu, did you see that? What will other people do to a child who steals? How will they educate him? Although hitting others is wrong, it's okay to hit your own child a few times. As long as he doesn't make mistakes again, it'll be fine. You are just like the one they say a loving mother often spoils her son," Director Li said to Qin Huairu after listening to what the two uncles said.

After talking about Qin Huairu, Director Li turned his gaze to the middle-aged woman standing beside him and said, "Wang Cuilan, as Yi Zhonghai's daughter-in-law, you didn't know at all that Yi Zhonghai had made such a big mistake, and you didn't try to dissuade him. You just watched Yi Zhonghai step by step walk into the abyss."

"Director, Zhonghai didn't tell me when something happened. Besides, Zhonghai didn't spend their money, he just kept it. Please let him go, otherwise how am I going to live the rest of my life?" the aunt pleaded while crying.

"Two people can sleep in the same bed. I don't believe his situation. You don't know anything about it. You have been married for many years. You can't feel his abnormality. Besides, he saved the money. If He Yuzhu and his sister starve to death, who will the money be given to?"

"Moreover, Yi Zhonghai has violated the national law, and only severe punishment from the law awaits him," Director Li did not believe a word of what Yi Zhonghai's wife said and severely criticized her.

The deaf old lady knew that Director Li didn't like her, so she simply didn't show up.

Next, Director Li held a meeting for everyone in the Siheyuan to address the many problems in the hospital and conducted a legal education.

At this time, the police who had been to the courtyard came to the Siheyuan again. Everyone sighed that there were more police officers coming to the Siheyuan in the past few days than in the past year.

Two police officers walked up to Director Li, they recognized each other and greeted each other, "Director Li, the trial results have come out. We are here to read out the trial results of Yi Zhonghai, Jia Geng, and Zhang Cuihua."

"Old Liu, I'll ask them to call everyone out, and you go to the front and talk," Director Li gave the front seat to the police, and the clerk went to notify everyone in every household.

After everyone stood up, the elder Liu Gongan took out the verdict and began to read: "Yi Zhonghai, deceived the postman and took the living expenses of He Yuzhu and his sister, causing serious damage to their childhood life. The verdict is as follows:

"Yi Zhonghai was sent to the Northwest Farm for 20 years of forced labor and was ordered to compensate He Yuzhu and his sister for their losses."

When the aunt heard that Yi Zhonghai was sentenced to 20 years, she almost fainted. Old Mrs. Long did not expect that Yi Zhonghai would be sentenced just a few days later. She had no hope for her later years. She also stamped her feet and beat her chest and shouted, "Director Yang, how do you do things? Didn't you promise me to let Yi Zhonghai go?"

This sentence was heard by He Yuzhu, which aroused his suspicion.

"Jia Geng, nicknamed Bang Geng, has repeatedly committed theft in the courtyard and refused to change his ways. A few days ago, he stole 200 yuan of money and food from He Yuzhu's house and damaged the house. He was caught by He Yuzhu. Considering his young age, he was sent to a labor camp in the suburbs of Beijing for one year and was ordered to compensate He Yuzhu's family for their losses."

"Zhang Cuihua, who repeatedly instructed her grandson Jia Geng to steal and spread feudal superstition in the police station, was unaware that Jia Geng had stolen money. She was sentenced to one month's detention." Qin Huairu burst into tears when she heard the verdict. She wondered if she regretted not disciplining Bang Geng well.

After the verdict was read out, a notice was given to the two families, and they were told to send the money to the police station today. If they did not compensate He Yuzhu for his losses as soon as possible, the police station could impose additional punishment on the two of them. After that, they left the courtyard.
