Chapter 157

It hadn't been long, and Seeing Shazhu had relapsed.

And he was even more daring and excessive.

In the past, he took leftovers, but this time he stole meat directly.

Suppressing his anger, Factory Director Yang scolded with a livid face:

"He He Yuzhu, do you know how despicable it is to steal collective property?"

"You have committed an unforgivable mistake!"

"From now on, you are suspended, and not only that, you will also receive corresponding punishment."

Seeing this, Deputy Factory Director Li felt his heart bloom with joy and gave Section Chief Guo a fierce look.

Section Chief Guo ruled on the spot: "He He Yuzhu stole collective property, the evidence is conclusive, and the behavior is despicable..."

Although a box of pork wasn't worth much, it was collective property.

The mistake He He Yuzhu committed was not small; after the punishment was announced publicly, he was taken to the Security Section.

Factory Director Yang ultimately didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he didn't transfer Seeing Shazhu directly to the police station, but temporarily detained him in the Security Section.

Qin Qin Huairu, hiding in the crowd, was panicked and uneasy, while Liu Haizhong and Xu Xu Damao gloated.

Yi Yi Zhonghai ran back to the Sihe Academy in a hurry, cursing Seeing Shazhu for being useless in his heart.

Sihe Academy

Yi Yi Zhonghai rushed to the Deaf Old Lady's house, and without knocking, he pushed the door open and went in.

Seeing Yi Yi Zhonghai enter, the Deaf Old Lady smiled kindly, "Yi Zhonghai, you're off work."

The Deaf Old Lady was a Five-Guarantee household and the oldest person in the courtyard with the highest seniority.

It was said that she had even sent straw sandals to the Red Army, so everyone in the courtyard respected her.

Because the Deaf Old Lady had no children, she treated the First Master, Yi Yi Zhonghai, as her godson.

The First Master, Yi Yi Zhonghai, also treated the Deaf Old Lady as his godmother and was filial to her.

However, at this moment, Yi Yi Zhonghai was in no mood to please the old lady and said anxiously:

"Old Lady, Sha Zhuzi is in trouble."

"What? What happened to my grandson?"

Hearing that her good grandson was in trouble, the Deaf Old Lady became anxious immediately.

"Sha Zhuzi was caught by the Security Section for stealing pork from the factory..."

"Sha Zhuzi is foolish!"

Hearing Yi Yi Zhonghai's story, the Deaf Old Lady's ears were no longer deaf, her legs were no longer painful, and she anxiously shouted while leaning on her cane.

Although Yi Yi Zhonghai had always taken care of her, in this courtyard, the Deaf Old Lady liked Seeing Shazhu the most.

The Deaf Old Lady treated Seeing Shazhu as her own grandson, "He doesn't lack food, why did he take the pork from the factory? Could it be because I said I wanted to eat meat a few days ago?"

Looking at the self-reproaching Deaf Old Lady, Yi Yi Zhonghai, who knew the truth, couldn't help but sneer.

Even if Seeing Shazhu brought the wild boar meat back, he probably wouldn't have shared it with the Deaf Old Lady.

However, Yi Yi Zhonghai wouldn't point it out, because he still needed the Deaf Old Lady to help:

"Old Lady, the most urgent task is to save Sha Zhuzi."

"The Security Section is not a place for people to stay."

"I'm worried that if it takes too long, Sha Zhuzi will be harmed."

The Deaf Old Lady said helplessly, "Sha Zhuzi is in the Security Section, how can we save him?"

She had weight in the Sihe Academy, but outside this courtyard, her old face didn't carry much weight.

Since Yi Yi Zhonghai came to find the Deaf Old Lady, he had already calculated it:

"It's useless for us to go to the Security Section, but we can go to Cao Cao Weiguo to get him out."

"Cao Cao Weiguo is a deputy director and is also Seeing Shazhu's direct leader; if he goes to the Security Section, it will definitely work."

"It's just that I don't get along with him, but your status is different."

"You are the ancestor of our courtyard; as long as you step out, Cao Cao Weiguo must give you face."

Since Seeing Shazhu was transferred back to the kitchen, Yi Yi Zhonghai had spent a lot of effort to repair their relationship.

During this period, he had lent both grain and money, investing a lot of capital.

He didn't want his efforts to be in vain, which was why he was so active in saving Seeing Shazhu.

Moreover, he also wanted to make Seeing Shazhu remember his kindness by saving him.

Hearing Yi Yi Zhonghai's words, the Deaf Old Lady walked out without hesitation:

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go find Cao Cao Weiguo to save him now."

It was just that when the Deaf Old Lady arrived at the Cao house, Cao Cao Weiguo hadn't returned home yet.

Only Song Song Yulan was in the room doing housework, and she was a bit surprised to see the Deaf Old Lady enter.

"Old Lady, First Master, you're here, please sit down, I'll make you a cup of tea."

Both families lived in the back courtyard and met often in their daily lives.

Although the two families didn't interact much, Song Song Yulan still entertained them warmly.

After all, the Deaf Old Lady's age was there, and respecting the old and loving the young was a traditional virtue.

The Deaf Old Lady asked, "Where is Cao Cao Weiguo?"

Song Song Yulan smiled and said, "My husband hasn't returned yet, Old Lady, is there something you need him for?"

Hearing this, the Deaf Old Lady sat directly on a chair, "There is something, is it okay if I wait for him here?"

Song Song Yulan smiled and said, "Look at what you're saying, how could it be a bother?"

Saying this politely, Song Song Yulan skillfully made a pot of tea.

The Deaf Old Lady held the cup and drank tea, while Yi Yi Zhonghai stood by her side, looking around the room.

The room was bright and tidy, and the furniture, whether new or old, was wiped clean.

It could be seen that Song Song Yulan cleaned often and was a diligent person.

One had to admit that Cao Cao Weiguo had a good eye and married a good wife.

If this couple were willing to provide for his old age, what a good thing that would be.

Because Seeing Shazhu was a staff member of the canteen, Cao Cao Weiguo couldn't avoid being criticized a couple of times.

After the criticism, several leaders began to discuss how to deal with Seeing Shazhu.

Deputy Factory Director Li naturally demanded severe punishment, while Factory Director Yang hoped to make a big issue small.

Although what Seeing Shazhu did made Factory Director Yang very angry and very embarrassed.

But Seeing Shazhu was his person after all, and if it became a big deal, his face would look even worse.

For a time, Seeing Shazhu became a pawn between the factory director and the deputy factory director.

After a round of verbal sparring, Factory Director Yang paid some benefits.

Only then did Deputy Factory Director Li relent, agreeing not to transfer Seeing Shazhu to the police station and to solve it internally within the factory.

However, even if it were solved internally, it could still strip a layer of skin off Seeing Shazhu.

When Cao Cao Weiguo returned to the Sihe Academy, it was already dark, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Yi Yi Zhonghai and the Deaf Old Lady.

The First Master spoke first, "Cao Weiguo, you're back."

These two coming to his house was definitely for Seeing Shazhu's sake.

Cao Cao Weiguo said directly, "First Master, Old Lady, I know why you're here, but I'll tell you clearly that I can't help with He He Yuzhu's matter."

These words made Yi Yi Zhonghai's face look ugly and the Deaf Old Lady's expression urgent:

"Cao Weiguo, you and Seeing Shazhu grew up together."

"Not to mention your relationship with him, just for the sake of this old woman."

"Help Sha Zhuzi, Sha Zhuzi is a good boy with feelings and righteousness, he will definitely repay you in the future."

Cao Cao Weiguo sighed, "Old Lady, it's not that I don't want to help, but I really can't help."

Yi Yi Zhonghai said, "Cao Cao Weiguo, you are Sha Zhuzi's leader and also a favorite in front of the factory director."

"If you want to help, how could you not be able to? As long as you say a few good words, Sha Zhuzi might be fine."

"A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor, you can't stand by and watch him die."

"And the Old Lady has come to ask you personally, you have to give some face even if you don't look at the monk's face."

Cao Cao Weiguo looked at Yi Yi Zhonghai with a cold face, "First Master, you've gone too far with that!"
