Chapter 229 Qin Huairu reluctantly refunds the money
After Liu Zhi left.
Wang Yuying said,
"Don't blame your brother for not helping. You should understand that our family's ability to live a good life depends entirely on your brother. If your brother is implicated, our family will be over."
Wang Yuying realized that her tone was a bit harsh, so she softened her tone and comforted her.
"Mom, I understand this in my heart, and I don't want my brother to interfere in this matter." Yang Mei said.
In fact, Yang Mei can best understand the importance of Yang Jun to this family.
Without Yang Jun, she would still be wielding a sledgehammer in the workshop, and it would be impossible for her to be promoted to a cadre, and she would not have a wedding room of her own.
She knew in her heart that all of this was brought to her by Yang Jun. Without Yang Jun, there would be no such thing.
Therefore, she wants Yang Jun to get involved in this matter more than anyone else.
As for Yi Qiushui.
Her mind was not on this, she never cared about these things, and she never got in when her family talked about these trivial matters.
At this moment, she was as quiet as a lady, concentrating on counting the rice grains in the bowl while eating.
Before the meal was finished, I heard a noise in the yard, and the second uncle's broken gong voice came over.
"Every household, please listen carefully and come out immediately to hold a meeting."
"I repeat, no one can be absent and must participate."
Upon hearing this, Yang Jun's family looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
Afterwards, everyone hurriedly ate.
After eating, Yi Qiushui clamored to attend the hospital-wide meeting.
After all, it was her first time to attend a hospital-wide meeting, and she always wanted to see what it would be like for the people at the bottom to gather together. She also wanted to know what would happen to the legendary unreasonable Jia Zhang family.
"I go first."
Yi Qiushui said hello to Yang Jun and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Arriving at the middle courtyard, the place was already bustling with people.
The seats were bustling with people, and they were all beaming and telling vividly about the scene of arresting Jia Zhang during the day, especially brothers Yan Jiecheng, Liu Guangfu, and Liu Guangtian, who were sitting in the crowd, as if they had become the center of the universe.
After all, they personally participated in what happened when Jia Zhang was sent to the hospital. There, they were salivating as they recounted how Jia Zhang was taken out of the car at the hospital, how she was not sent to the filming machine room, and how.
Trapped on the irradiation table.
Watching their language and body movements vividly recreate the situation at that time, it was as if they had participated in a grand pig-killing event.
Qin Huairu's family sat in front of the crowd. It seemed that the Jia Zhang family's incident had no impact on their family. Although Qin Huairu pretended to be sad, the corners of her mouth curled up from time to time.
When Jia Zhang was arrested, the biggest beneficiary was Qin Huairu.
Like other families, they were just blackmailed by Jia and Zhang for some money.
But what about Qin Huairu?
She has to face Jia and Zhang every day.
In front of Mrs. Jia Zhang, she was careful every day, walking on thin ice, for fear that if she didn't do anything well, she would be scolded or even beaten by Mr. Jia Zhang.
She also wanted to resist, but her strength didn't allow it.
She tried.
But every time, it ended in failure. Every time, Jia Zhang was pushed to the ground and rubbed repeatedly.
As time went by, she had a shadow in her heart, so that she continued to compromise and accommodate.
But this time it's different.
Today's hospital-wide meeting is the moment to decide the fate of the Jia and Zhang family.
Bribing doctors, concealing her condition, falsifying medical certificates, and a series of other crimes, as well as having a previous relationship with a man and a woman, I think the street office will definitely not let her off lightly this time.
The third uncle has already set the table, with four chairs in front of it. There are also two glass teacups in the middle.
The tea cup looks very new, but it seems that it is reluctant to use it often. The third uncle must have taken it out because he was trying to curry favor with Wang Xuemei.
Yang Jun stood at the archway and saw that no one from the street office had arrived yet, so he was not in a hurry to go over.
Just when he wanted to go back and wait for a while before coming back.
Suddenly I heard footsteps coming from the front yard.
I saw Wang Xuemei leading a group of people from the street office. Behind them, there were two people in custody, namely Jia Zhang and a middle-aged man in his forties.
The third uncle and the second uncle rushed over to greet them.
After saying hello to several people.
Wang Xuemei asked people to escort Jia Zhang and the middle-aged man to the front.
At this time, Mrs. Jia Zhang had long lost the arrogance she had during the day, but the unyielding spirit in her bones supported her.
She held her head high and looked directly at everyone, her eyes full of contempt.
Although her mouth was blocked, she made some "hum" sounds from time to time to express her dissatisfaction.
Yang Jun saw Wang Xuemei arriving, so he also walked over.
The two said hello and exchanged a few words.
Wang Xuemei asked Yang Jun to sit down.
Yang Jun and Wang Xuemei sat in the middle, and the third uncle and the second uncle sat on both sides.
Then, Yang Jun touched the second uncle sitting next to him with his arm, indicating that he could start.
"Cough, cough."
The second uncle stood up and coughed twice.
"I won't go into details about what happened. Director Wang came here in person this time to announce the punishment of Jia Zhang. Let's welcome Director Wang's speech with warm applause."
The second uncle was very neat this time and handed over the speaking power to Wang Xuemei in a few words.
Everyone was stunned and didn't react.
If it were normal, the second uncle would have to give at least twenty minutes of opening remarks. Now this appearance makes everyone uncomfortable.
The second uncle is addicted to officialdom, but he is not stupid.
The First Master is here today, and Director Wang is also here, so we can distinguish priorities.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Applause!" The third uncle saw that everyone was dazed, so he stood up and shouted.
"Bah bang bang!"
Wang Xuemei stood up, raised her hands, and pressed them down slightly, signaling for everyone to be quiet.
"Comrades, be quiet."
Wang Xuemei glanced at everyone and then said: "Jia Zhang was sentenced to half a year of labor camp for having sex with men and women. During the labor camp, she did not accept the labor reform properly, bribed doctors, issued false medical certificates, and lied about being sick.
After returning to the compound, he did not want to repent, but intensified his behavior, pretended to be crazy, acted like a fool, and extorted people's money. His nature was extremely bad. After our research, we decided to impose the following punishment on Jia Zhang."
"Jia Zhang is to be punished and sent back to his place of origin to be re-education through labor for seven years. During the re-education through labor period, his sentence will not be reduced, and he will not be paroled under any pretext until he completes his sentence."
Later, Wang Xuemei took a ring from a staff member, showed it to everyone and said,
"Everyone, take a look. This sapphire ring is evidence of Jia Zhang's bribery. It has been confiscated. In addition..."
Wang Xuemei pointed to the tied up middle-aged man and said: "This person is the doctor who took bribes. I will discredit our people and affect the image of the medical profession. After research and decision, I have decided."
Wang Xuemei took the punishment decision and read out: "Dr. Zhou Huairen will be fired from his post and sent to a labor camp for five years. During the labor camp, he will not be eligible for parole or commutation of his sentence."
"good!"
The people in the courtyard cheered in unison.
"This kind of person is not worthy of being a doctor."
"Jia Zhang finally received the punishment she deserved, but... the time in the labor camp was too short."
"Now the people in the compound can finally live a stable life."
Everyone was talking one after another, with cheerful smiles on their faces.
This smile comes from the bottom of my heart, and I am happy that a harm has been eliminated in the courtyard.
Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief, but in order to maintain her reputation as a filial daughter-in-law, she tried hard not to laugh out loud.
"grandmother……"
Seeing everyone jumping for joy, Banggeng's eyes were red, with a trace of hatred flashing in his eyes.
He was about to go up to protect his grandma, but Qin Huairu grabbed him and covered his mouth tightly.
Then, Wang Xuemei waved her hand, and Jia Zhang and Zhou Huairen were taken away.
Mrs. Jia Zhang has been gagged since she entered the courtyard. She has an unruly look in her eyes. She looks at the contempt on everyone's faces and disdains those who are mocking her.
Humming in his mouth, he seemed to want to say,
"You all just wait for me, I will come back again."
After Wang Xuemei suppressed Jia Zhang and left, the meeting continued.
The second uncle motioned to Yang Jun to say a few words, and Yang Jun shook his head slightly.
When the second uncle saw this, he naturally wanted what he wanted. He knocked on the table and looked towards Qin Huairu.
"Qin Huairu, you promised before to return the money that Jia Zhang had blackmailed to everyone. Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise."
Qin Huairu heard the second uncle calling her.
So he immediately stood up, walked to the table, and faced everyone, looking pitiful.
She bowed to everyone first, then squeezed her eyes a few times. When she found that no tears came out, she smiled awkwardly and said,
"Young and old men in the yard, I'm sorry. I am here to compensate you on behalf of my mother-in-law. In addition, I will never default on your debt and will definitely return the money that my mother-in-law extorted from you."
After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she took out a red handkerchief from her trouser pocket, opened it and saw that there were hundreds of dollars in large and small bills inside.
The second uncle originally planned to criticize Qin Huairu at the conference, but seeing how sincerely she admitted her mistake and was willing to refund the money, he snorted and let her go for the time being.
"Next, please ask the victims to come up one by one to claim your money back."
The second uncle stood up and called everyone to come up and collect the money.
As soon as the second uncle finished speaking, someone immediately stood up.
"Qin Huairu, your mother-in-law extorted three yuan and fifty cents from my house. Please pay her back."
Da Liu walked up to Qin Huairu and stretched out his hand.
Qin Huairu quickly counted out three dollars and fifty cents from the handkerchief and handed it over, bowing and apologizing.
"I'm sorry, brother Liu."
"Hmph!" Da Liu took the money and returned to his seat directly.
"Huairu, your mother-in-law blackmailed me for five yuan." Lao Ma came over.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Ma." Qin Huairu handed over her hands and apologized sincerely.
"Your mother-in-law blackmailed me for four dollars."
"Blackmailed me for five dollars."
"..."
As the number of people increased, Qin Huairu's face became increasingly ugly.
The money in the handkerchief was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, which made her feel distressed.
The money that Jia Zhang had extorted was not given to her, and she could only use her own money to pay off the debt.
She knew in her heart that she would not be able to repay the money.
Mrs. Jia and Zhang have already brought disgrace to the Jia family. If she admits her mistake and has a bad attitude and doesn't pay back the money, their family will no longer be able to live in the courtyard.
