Soon, Xu Damao returned home.
"Wife, I brought you some delicious food.”
He took out his lunch box and handed it to his wife, Lou Xiao'e.
"What is it?" Lou Xiao'e took the lunch box and asked curiously.
"But I can smell the fragrance. It must be delicious.”
"Can't you open it and see?" Xu Damao said.”
Lou Xiao'e opened the lunch box and saw a box of chicken mushroom stew.
"This is chicken mushroom stew." " Where did you get it?" she asked in surprise. Your canteen doesn't have such delicious food, right?”
Xu Damao said," Our canteen doesn't have it. Ordinary workers can't eat it. Only the leaders will cook this dish when they open a special stove or entertain guests." In the afternoon, Factory Manager Yang and the others entertained the higher-ups who came to inspect the factory and made this signature dish of our factory?”
"You made it?" Lou Xiao'e asked.
Xu Damao nodded." That's right. My wife is really smart. She guessed it right!"”
Lou Xiao'e smiled." I didn't think so in the past, but now we've seen your cooking skills. You can definitely make such a good chicken mushroom stew!"”
"Does it smell good?" Xu Damao asked.
"Fragrant! It smells especially good!" Lou Xiao'e nodded vigorously.
Xu Damao said," Then let's eat. I've already eaten, so there's no need to keep it for me. If you think it's delicious, then eat it all."”
"Alright." Lou Xiao'e agreed.
Then, she sat down, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and began to eat with relish.
"So fragrant, so delicious!"
She praised as she ate.
"Yo, what are you eating? It smells so good!”
At this moment, Second Uncle walked in.
"Stewed chicken with mushrooms. I brought it back from the factory for my wife to eat!"”
That box of vegetables was given to him in the kitchen. He put it into the lunch box in front of Deputy Factory Manager Li and Director Tang, so he wasn't afraid of being found out like what was in Silly Zhu's lunch box.
"Chicken mushroom stew? Wasn't that Silly Zhu's signature dish? I heard that the kitchen will only cook when the leader gives special treatment. Where did you get it?”Second Uncle asked in puzzlement.
Xu Damao smiled meaningfully." Second Uncle, don't tell me you think that without Silly Pillar, no one in our factory will make this chicken mushroom stew?" Without Silly Pillar, he would still be able to operate the rolling mill as usual!”
"Yes, Silly Zhu is nothing special. Without him in the courtyard, I suddenly feel much quieter!”Second Uncle nodded.
"Xu Damao, come here for a moment. I have something to tell you.”
Then, he called Xu Damao to the side.
"What is it, Second Uncle?" Xu Damao asked.
"It's about that rat," said Second Uncle.”
"What's wrong? Did you help me find some information?" Xu Damao perked up.
Jia Zhang-shi had done such a vicious thing. They had to find evidence and drag him out.
Second Uncle replied," Third Uncle and I have asked around in the back, middle, and front courtyards for you, but we didn't find out anything. I'm afraid this matter won't be easy to investigate. However, you're right. It must be someone from the courtyards who did it. It must be Qin Huiru and the others because they hate you the most."”
Xu Damao nodded." I understand, Second Uncle. Thank you for your help."”
"Don't be so polite. Isn't this a piece of cake?" Second Uncle shook his head.
With that, he left.
"Jia Zhang-shi, just you wait, you definitely won't be able to escape!”Xu Damao thought to himself.
Since Second Uncle and Third Uncle couldn't help, he could only let him settle this matter himself.
The day before yesterday, Jia Zhangshi sneaked into his house. She must have noticed the adults, but she probably didn't notice so much about the children.
"Ask the children in the courtyard and see if you can get anything out of them.”Xu Damao immediately thought.
Second Uncle and the others could not get any information from the adults, so it was his turn to make a move.
He started with the children in the courtyard.
He walked out of the house.
In the courtyard, there were many children playing with pebbles.
Qin Huairu's youngest daughter, Huai Hua, was also there.
"Xiao Mao, Xiao Lan!" He shouted at the children who were playing.
The group of children heard his shout and surrounded him.
Huai Hua did not dare to come over. Instead, she stood far away and looked at Xu Damao.
"Uncle Damao, why did you call us?”An older boy asked curiously.
Xu Damao raised a beautiful box in his hand.
"Biscuit! It's a fruit biscuit!"
The little boy blurted out excitedly when he saw the box.
The children around them also widened their eyes and looked at the biscuit excitedly.
In the 1960s, there were very few snacks on the market, and children could not eat much.
Don't look down on such a small box of biscuits. That was the best thing in the eyes of children.
An irresistible temptation.
Because if he wanted to eat biscuits, he might have to wait until the holidays!
Now that they saw Xu Damao suddenly take out a box of biscuits, how could they not be excited?
"Then Uncle Damao asks you, do you want to eat biscuits?”Xu Damao asked with a smile.
"I want to eat!"
"I want to eat too!"
"Uncle Damao, can we have some biscuits?”
……
The children agreed in unison.
Seeing Xu Damao take out a box of fruit-flavored biscuits, Huai Hua, who was standing behind, was obviously tempted. He couldn't help but take a few steps forward, but he still didn't dare to approach Xu Damao.
Obviously, she was very afraid of Xu Damao.
"Huai Hua, why are you standing so far away? Come here, I'll give you some cookies.”Xu Damao waved at Huai Hua.
Compared to the other people in Qin Huairu's family, Huai Hua was considered pretty good.
Of course, this was only limited to the current locust flowers.
After all, she was still very young. She was only three or four years old and did not know anything.
There was no good or bad.
When the entire court was summoned to judge the stick, the other party had even told the truth. If she had not told the truth, it would not have been so easy to convict the stick.
Therefore, he was quite grateful to this little girl.
"I'm scared." Huai Hua said timidly.
"What are you afraid of? There were so many children here, what was there to be afraid of?”Xu Damao said.
"My mother-in-law said that you're very fierce and took my brother to prison. They said that you're a bad person."”
"Then do you think I look like a bad person?" Xu Damao laughed.”
"Uncle Damao is not a bad person. Uncle Damao has biscuits to eat.”A child beside him said.
She was really innocent and cute when she said this!
Huai Hua thought for a moment and looked at the biscuit in his hand. She shook her head and did not say anything.
"Alright, I'll give you some biscuits, but after you finish eating the biscuits, you have to help Uncle Damao with something. This can be considered a small deal between us, okay?”Xu Damao said.
"Sure, Uncle Damao. You give us biscuits and we help you do things. Do you want us to sweep your yard?”the boy said.
Xu Damao shook his head." No, I don't need you to help me sweep the floor. I just want you to help me look after something."”
"Alright, you guys eat the biscuits first.”
He opened the biscuit box and took out the biscuits to share with everyone.
Everyone scrambled to eat.
They ate with relish.
Everyone had a share.
Naturally, the locust flowers were also distributed.
The box of biscuits was finished in the blink of an eye.
"Alright, after you've finished your biscuits, it's time to fulfill your promise and help Uncle Damao.”
After that, Xu Damao clapped his hands and said,"If you help me with this, I'll have biscuits to eat in the future.”
After saying that, he took out the iron pot that was hidden in a corner of the house.
The dead rat was still inside.
He placed the pot on the ground and opened it.
The children were shocked to see a mouse inside, and some even backed away in fear.
"Rat! Uncle Damao, that's a rat!" A child shouted.
"Yes, it's a mouse." Xu Damao nodded. Tell Uncle Damao, do you recognize this rat? Where did it come from?"
The children looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Uncle Damao, we don't know where that rat came from.”The leading boy shook his head.
"Then let me ask you again. The day before yesterday afternoon, when the adults were about to return from work at the rolling mill, did anyone walk into my house?”Xu Damao continued to ask.
The children were still looking at each other. For a moment, no one answered this question.
" Uncle Damao, Xiaolan and I were playing outside Great-Grandma's house at the time you mentioned. We didn't see anyone enter your house, but we saw…" the boy said.
As he spoke, he turned around and glanced at Huai Hua, who was standing behind him.
"What did you see?" Xu Damao asked.
He was sure that they had seen something.
The boy replied," We saw Huai Hua's mother-in-law come to the backyard, but we don't know why she came. We don't know what happened after that."”
Hearing this, Xu Damao frowned deeply.
There was indeed a problem.
The child's words were not enough to prove that Jia Zhangshi had gone to his house and thrown the dead rat into his pot.
However, this was already a clue and a part of the evidence.
"Huai Hua, are you afraid of this rat?”Xu Damao turned his gaze to Huai Hua.
When she saw the rat, Huai Hua's reaction was obviously not right. She was more afraid than the other children.
This meant that there was a problem. There must be a problem!
Huai Hua replied," That rat was found under our bed. Granny said that she would throw it into the backyard to scare people to death. I'm so scared!"”
"Is this rat yours?" Xu Damao asked.
"Yes, it's the one that Granny caught!"”
Children were innocent and could not lie.
He was telling the truth.
This was undoubtedly irrefutable evidence.
He accused Jia Zhang-shi of doing such a vicious and wicked thing.
"Huai Hua, don't be afraid. It's fine now. I'll cover it and you won't be able to see it.”Xu Damao comforted her with a smile and then covered the pot.
Then, he called Second Uncle over and explained the matter to him.
"So that wicked thing was done by Jia Zhangshi!”
After learning the truth, Second Uncle was furious.
Soon, Lou Xiao'e also found out about this matter.
"How could Jia Zhang-shi be so insidious? How could she do such a wicked thing!”She cursed angrily.
At that time, she was so scared that she almost had a heart attack.
Because she was most afraid of rats.
How could he not be scared half to death when he suddenly saw a smelly rat corpse in his own pot?
"Da Mao, this matter is very vile. Jia Zhang-shi must be severely punished. Tell me, what should we do about this matter? Do you want me to immediately go to Third Master and First Master to call a meeting of the entire academy to punish Jia Zhang-shi?”Second Uncle asked.
"Alright!" Xu Damao nodded.
First, let the entire courtyard know about Jia Zhangshi's ugly face and let her die.
Then, he would teach her a lesson.
This time, I won't let her shed blood and tears. I, Xu Damao, will recite my name backwards.
"Alright, then I'll immediately look for the two elders to discuss the matter of holding a general meeting of the entire academy!”Second Uncle agreed.
With that, he walked away quickly.
"Jia Zhang-shi, get out here!”
A few minutes later, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e appeared at Qin Huairu's doorstep.
This matter really angered Lou Xiao'e. Even if she was well-educated and reasonable, she could not control herself at all. She ran over and scolded Jia Zhangshi, that vicious old woman, first.
Hearing Lou Xiao'e's scolding.
Jia Zhangshi, who was in the room, walked out.
"Lou Xiao'e, what's wrong with you?”She had no self-awareness at all and cursed as soon as she walked out.
"Jia Zhang-shi, isn't your heart too dark and vicious? When I wasn't paying attention, he sneaked into my house and threw a stinky rat into my pot. When I was about to cook, I opened the lid and got a shock! How could you do such a thing? Are you wicked and smoking?!”Lou Xiao'e scolded him desperately.
"Lou Xiao'e, who did that?! I didn't do it!" Jia Zhangshi denied it," I didn't do anything wrong. On the contrary, your Xu Damao has done so many wrong things. It's because he has done too many wrong things and immoral things that you can't have children and he has become extinct!”
She gritted her teeth and cursed even harder.
As a shrew, she was definitely very good at scolding. Ordinary people would not be able to scold her because she could curse and say anything vicious.
"You're still trying to deny it. Now the evidence is conclusive.”Lou Xiao'e said righteously.
"Then show me the evidence! You don't have any evidence, so why are you cursing at my door?! Get lost! Get lost!"
Jia Zhang-shi cursed as she clapped her hands, her momentum growing stronger and stronger.
And it was closing in.
He did not put Xu Damao in his eyes at all.
"Wife, don't scold her. She's an old lady. She's already over fifty and almost sixty. Why are you scolding her? Don't scold me." Xu Damao said.
Hearing him say that, Lou Xiao'e was stunned.
"It should be like this!"
Before she could react, Xu Damao rushed forward and kicked her.
Jia Zhang-shi was directly kicked flying, falling far away.
"Bang!"
She fell heavily to the ground.
He had fallen flat on his face.
