The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

Just when the Liang family of three was at a loss, a small truck came speeding and stopped outside the crowd.

Chang Wei and Qin Huairu got out of the car, walked through the crowd and came in.

What caught his eye was Ding Yan and Liang Ladi, mother and daughter, whose eyes were filled with anxious tears. Chang Wei quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mom and Dad, what's wrong with Ladi?"

Seeing Chang Wei coming, Ding Yan felt more confident and hurriedly pulled him. "Good son, this Peng Jizhong spread rumors that..."

Liang Ladi also added, "Brother Wei..."

After hearing what the three members of the Liang family said, Chang Wei understood what was going on. His eyes turned cold and he was suddenly filled with anger.

"Huai Ru, La Di, you stay with your parents, it's okay, I'll take care of it."

Chang Wei walked forward and sneered, looking at Peng Jizhong with a cold look in his eyes. "Are you the blind date that Ladi didn't like before? Ladi didn't like you, so you came up with this stupid idea to bully a woman?"

Although he was angry, Chang Wei was very rational. He knew there was no point in beating Peng Jizhong.

He tried to take the dominant position with his first words, and used people's inertia of thinking to turn the target towards Peng Jizhong.

In psychology, it is called the loser effect, which refers to the fact that people generally have a desire to sympathize with and help the weak, often without expecting anything in return.

This psychological phenomenon is very common in daily life. For example, when seeing a person who is injured or trapped, most people will feel sympathy and want to help; when seeing something unfair happen, people will tend to support those who are in a disadvantaged position.

Sure enough, as soon as Chang Wei finished speaking, the workers who were watching became excited again, and those enthusiastic workers just now started speaking again.

"So it turns out that the other person didn't like him during the blind date, so she held a grudge and spread rumors to frame him! What a mean person!"

"That's what I said. How could such a diligent and pretty girl be like what he said?"

"You deserve to be looked down upon. You are ugly but have beautiful dreams. You are also so vicious at heart."

……

Seeing Chang Wei's eyes and hearing the words of the enthusiastic workers, Peng Jizhong felt a little guilty. He pretended to be calm and shouted to the crowd: "Everyone saw it! He is the man of Liang Ladi. I didn't lie about this..."

He wanted to use this to divert attention and then turn the situation around.

How could Chang Wei let him succeed? He looked at him coldly and said to the crowd. "When I came here just now, what did Liang Fengnian and his wife and Liang Ladi call me? You should have heard it! That's right, I am the godson of Liang Fengnian and his wife, and my wife Qin Huairu came with me." He pointed at Qin Huairu who was comforting Ding Yan.

After saying this, Peng Jizhong not only failed to turn the tide, but instead he was at the center of the controversy even further.

Not only did the enthusiastic workers verbally mock and attack Peng Jizhong, but the workers who had been watching also began to point fingers at him...

Peng Jizhong's face suddenly turned pale and blue. After all, everything he said was just speculation...

Chang Wei continued to speak to the workers, "Is there any enthusiastic comrade who can help report to the police? I will treat you to cold noodles later!" His tone was cheerful and approachable.

One of the young workers, who was pushing a bicycle, immediately stepped forward and said, "I'll go. I can get there in a few minutes by bicycle." Then he rode away on his bicycle.

Peng Jizhong felt somewhat uneasy at this time. Chang Weifeng's calm expression made him feel anxious. But thinking that he had the certificate from the Second Hospital in his hand and the two victims were his best friends, he said without much confidence. "Wait until the police come, and then we'll see what you say."

Chang Wei sneered and said calmly: "Peng Jizhong, do you know the consequences of spreading rumors, slandering, and framing others? Don't worry, I will let you experience it firsthand."

Then he pointed at Peng Jizhong and defended Liang Ladi. "Because my sister Liang Ladi is pretty and didn't like him during the blind date, he was unwilling and petty, so he spread rumors and slandered her.

All the rumors are caused by this villain in front of us. When the public security comrades come, this villain must not be allowed to go unpunished."

Then he added, "To tell you the truth, Ladi is going to get married on the eighth day of the seventh lunar month. They have even prepared a new yard for their wedding, which is not far from the machine repair factory. The factory leaders and the workers my father Liang Fengnian knows should all know that he gave up the public housing in the factory a few days ago."

At this time, Peng Jizhong's rumors had already been refuted.

They are getting married soon, everything is ready, how could it be like what he said...

A co-worker who knew Liang Fengnian spoke up. "Indeed, Old Liang said yesterday that his son-in-law bought a yard for his family to move in..."

The workers also began to agree, pointing at Peng Jizhong and saying, "We can't let him go. This kind of person is the most hateful."

"Everyone, please tell the factory that we don't want such a villain in our machine repair shop. It's embarrassing to tell others about it."

There were also workers who knew the Peng family and dug up the family's past. "Isn't this the son of Peng Sanpao? No wonder he behaves like this, my father is not a good person..."

……

Peng Jizhong suddenly felt that the situation was not good. He was not good at communication, and the rumors were completely refuted at this time. The workers directed their criticisms at him one after another.

His eyelids twitched with anxiety, and he quickly waved his last life-saving straw - the certificate issued by the hospital, trying to change the subject again.

"The cold noodles sold by Liang Ladi were problematic, but there is proof from the hospital and two victims. The matter has been reported to the higher authorities and the factory leaders are aware of it."

Chang Wei was too lazy to look at him now. The first and most important step was to restore Liang Ladi's reputation.

The rumors have been refuted at this point, and we will deal with him later.

Next was the question of the cold noodles. He walked directly to the two security guards and said, "He said there was something wrong with the cold noodles. Since he has reported it to the leader, I'll let you come. You should know who the two victims are, right? Please go find the two victims. The public security comrades are also very busy maintaining public order. The public security comrades will be here soon, which will save time and facilitate the investigation."

Then he whispered, "You have seen with your own eyes a villain like Peng Jizhong. Is it impossible for him to make a false certificate, deceive the factory leaders, and fool his fellow workers?"

After hearing Chang Wei's words, they already had a guess about the result. On one side was the calm Chang Wei, and on the other side was Peng Jizhong, who looked grim under the criticism of the workers. Couldn't they tell the difference?

The two security guards looked at each other, nodded, and trotted away.

They had to report this to Director Liu immediately. This was a serious matter. If the news reached the boss, Director Liu would be criticized. Moreover, if such a person appeared in the factory, they would be afraid of being told: This person is from the machine repair factory, and there is someone in their factory...

It's so embarrassing...
