Chapter 171

~6 min read 1,148 words

"I didn't steal anything!"

"Mom! Save me!"

Qin Qin Huairu hugged Bang Geng with heartache and then said pitifully:

"Comrade, my child is timid."

"He is a good child, he is very obedient and well-behaved, he wouldn't steal anything."

Bang Geng's resistance made the police comrade even more suspicious.

But because Cao Cao Weiguo had told them in a whisper that no footprints were actually found in the room,

everything said before was just to trick the thief and make the thief feel guilty.

So the police comrade just continued to trick Bang Geng and didn't force Bang Geng into the room.

Confirming Bang Geng's abnormal reaction, he turned to test other relevant suspects.

The police comrade asked with a straight face: "This female comrade, can you tell me where this candy came from?"

Qin Qin Huairu didn't know what Jia Jia Zhangshi had said in the room, and she didn't dare to make it up randomly.

The police comrade looked at Qin Qin Huairu not speaking, and his expression immediately became stern:

"This comrade! I hope you can cooperate with the investigation!"

"Concealing and deceiving law enforcement personnel is also an illegal act!"

"Now I ask you to answer immediately!"

Qin Qin Huairu was scared until her face was pale: "I! I!"

The police comrade said with a cold face: "Then have you eaten this candy?"

Qin Qin Huairu remained silent and didn't make any answer.

The police comrade asked again: "Then have you seen this candy?"

Qin Qin Huairu remained silent and didn't speak.

She didn't dare to speak randomly.

She was afraid that what she said would be different from Jia Jia Zhangshi's.

But if she kept not speaking, the police comrades wouldn't let her go.

"This candy was found in your cupboard!"

"But you don't know where this candy came from, and you haven't even seen it!"

"I now suspect that this candy and other things found are exactly what was lost from Cao Cao Weiguo's house today."

Qin Qin Huairu said nervously: "Comrade! I! I!"

The police comrade looked at Qin Qin Huairu and Bang Geng: "Now I ask you, your son, and your mother-in-law to return to the police station to cooperate with the investigation."

"I'm not going!"

"I'm not going!"

"I didn't steal this candy!"

Bang Geng shouted and screamed in fear as soon as he heard he was going to the police station.

But the police comrades had already found the things Cao Cao Weiguo reported lost from the Jia house.

Although Jia Jia Zhangshi said those things were bought by her, after some questioning,

whether it was the grandson or the daughter-in-law, none of them could explain it clearly.

No matter how resistant Bang Geng was, how Qin Qin Huairu sold misery, or how Jia Jia Zhangshi splashed,

the police comrades wouldn't soften their hearts toward the three members of the Jia family.

Watching the three members of the Jia family being taken away, the residents exploded again.

Xiao Dang and Little Huaihua stood alone in the courtyard crying, making people feel pitiful.

Yi Yi Zhonghai pointed at the pitiful Xiao Dang and Little Huaihua:

"Cao Cao Weiguo! Look at the good things you've done!"

"As the saying goes, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor!"

"Is this how you treat your neighbors?"

"Just for some food, you've made the neighbor's family not like a family!"

"Do you have any human touch? Do you have any compassion!"

Because Xiao Dang and Little Huaihua were too pitiful, some neighbors with holy-mother hearts also began to whisper.

Whispering that Cao Cao Weiguo was mean, cold-blooded, petty, and heartless...

Cao Cao Weiguo had sharp ears and eyes, and heard every word clearly.

However, he didn't explode on the spot, but wrote everyone down in his little notebook.

For those ridiculous and annoying residents, Cao Cao Weiguo ignored them.

But for the aggressive Yi Yi Zhonghai, Cao Cao Weiguo didn't tolerate it:

"You dog who can't distinguish right from wrong and is hypocritical!"

"If you beep one more word, do you believe I'll finish you off!"

Cao Cao Weiguo didn't take action, just a threat with an expressionless face.

It was like a bone-chilling cold wind blowing past, making Yi Yi Zhonghai close his mouth in fear.

If an ordinary person threatened him, he would mostly take it as a joke.

But Cao Cao Weiguo was no ordinary person!

This guy was in the same unit as him and was also a hot cadre.

If he really wanted to fix him in the dark?

Just thinking about it made him feel guilty and timid!

Regardless of Jia Jia Zhangshi bullying the weak and fearing the strong, Yi Yi Zhonghai was the same.

"You! You!"

Yi Yi Zhonghai was angry and afraid, and fled in a sorry state.

You! You!

These two words were his last bit of stubbornness!

Seeing Yi Yi Zhonghai suffer a setback and admit defeat, Liu Haizhong was so happy he wanted to sing.

Yan Yan Fugui sighed with sorrow; this was the helplessness of the common people!

So what if Yi Yi Zhonghai was the First Master?

In front of Cao Cao Weiguo, this cadre, he had no face at all!

The three masters could shout and order people around in the courtyard, but what were they outside?

Once Yi Yi Zhonghai left, the other residents also dispersed.

Those residents who said Cao Cao Weiguo was cold-blooded didn't take care of Xiao Dang and Little Huaihua.

In the end, it was Seeing Shazhu who took Xiao Dang and Little Huaihua home.

Sihe Academy

Cao Wei's home

Cao Cao Weiguo and his wife were warmly hosting the four members of the Lu family.

A table of sumptuous food and wine left five-year-old Lu Fei with a mouth full of grease.

Zhang Xue and Auntie Du tried their best to restrain themselves so as not to lose face, but they still ate until their bellies were round.

It wasn't that they were gluttonous; it was truly that the dishes Cao Cao Weiguo cooked were too sumptuous and delicious.

Kung Pao Chicken, Twice-Cooked Pork, Moo Shu Pork, Shredded Potatoes in Vinegar and Chili, Tiger Skin Green Peppers...

Whether it was meat or vegetables, everything was cooked to perfection in color, aroma, and taste.

It was so delicious that one couldn't bear to put down their chopsticks.

The family ate happily at Cao's home, occasionally denouncing the Jia family.

After they were full of food and wine, Cao Cao Weiguo and Lu Jinpeng went to the study to discuss matters.

Zhang Xue stayed behind to help Song Song Yulan with the housework, chatting while they worked.

Auntie Du took her grandson home; when they left, both grandmother and grandson were carrying a plate of leftovers.

Don't look down on leftovers; the residents along the way were drooling with envy.
