"Jia Zhang-shi, what is going on?”
" Where's the Li family's stuff?!"
" Did you take it away?!!"
A trace of panic flashed across Jia Zhangshi's face when she heard Chief Wang's question.
Xu Damao and the others were excited, waiting to watch a good show.
Jia Zhangshi was indeed the biggest beast in the Siheyuan. Facing the truth, she still refused to admit it.
"I'm innocent, Chief Wang!"
"I'm just worried that if Li Shengli's family moves away, someone will occupy this house!”
"I even kindly changed the lock of the house. I've never seen anything in the room!!”
The truth was right in front of him. Jia Zhangshi's shamelessness completely shocked Chief Wang.
Back then, he was clearly the one who checked the items. How could there be nothing?
Did this Jia Zhang-shi think that everyone else was as stupid as her?
"That's not right, Auntie Zhang. I saw you move a chair out of Li Yang's house two years ago!”
"At that time, you said that there weren't enough guests at home and that you wanted to borrow it for the time being. Why didn't you put it back?”
Xu Damao smiled evilly. Of course, he was involved in this kind of thing.
Silly Zhu had a good relationship with the Jia family. Ever since Jia Dongxu was injured and became a cripple due to an operational error, Silly Zhu had been using the excuse of providing financial aid to the Jia family to get close to Qin Huiru.
As Silly Pillar's arch-enemy, Xu Damao naturally took note of it.
Now, a great opportunity to deal with the Jia family was right in front of him. Of course, Xu Damao would not miss it.
"Hmph, old thing, keep your mouth shut!”
Xu Damao was overjoyed. Jia Zhangshi had offended him many times.
After Xu Damao said that, the crowd started to clamor.
"I also remember that there were quite a lot of things in this house at that time. Why is it empty now?”
"Needless to say, in these ten years, besides Jia Zhangshi, who else have you seen enter this room?”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you can't judge a person's heart by their appearance. Not only did this Jia Zhang-shi occupy other people's houses, she even stole the things they left behind!”
"Shh, lower your voice."
"What's there to be afraid of? Can she bite me?”
The crowd discussed animatedly, their tone filled with disdain towards Jia Zhangshi.
Li Yang sneered.
"Chief Wang, do you see? Someone is refusing to admit it now.”
"Could it be that you can take away other people's things just because no one lives in the house?”
Chief Wang's face was livid. He did not expect so many things to happen today.
She had thought that with her as Li Yang's witness, she would be able to live in her original room safely. Now, there was actually a terrible situation like stealing.
"Master Li, don't worry. I'll definitely give you a satisfactory explanation.”
Yi Zhonghai's eyelids twitched. He could not understand why Chief Wang was so polite to Li Yang.
According to Director Wang, Li Yang was also assigned to work at the Red Star Rolling Mill. He was just a novice worker. Why did he value him so much?
Yi Zhonghai knew that Li Shengli had been a Level 2 Engineer ten years ago. At that time, he was just a Level 6 fitter.
Although Yi Zhonghai had been working for ten years and was now a Level 8 fitter, he was still far from Li Shengli.
A Level 8 fitter's monthly salary was ninety-nine yuan. For most people in this era, that was a high salary.
After all, most of them were farmers and workers.
Ordinary workers only earned a few dozen yuan a month, and they had to feed a large family.
Ten years ago, Li Shengli was already a Level 2 Engineer, earning 278.50 yuan a month!
Li Shengli was involved in the first batch of equipment purchased by Red Star Rolling Mill and the first batch of products produced!
Therefore, Li Shengli's status in the rolling mill was enough to be called highly respected. It was far from what Yi Zhonghai could compare to.
If Li Shengli was here, there was no doubt that Director Wang would be so polite and respectful. However, now that Li Yang was here, was he worthy of the street office director's respect?
No matter what the reason was, Yi Zhonghai knew that the Jia family would not be able to escape today.
"Jia Zhang-shi, I advise you to confess as soon as possible. Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!”
Chief Wang was about to go crazy with anger.
As the director of the street office, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.
The organization sent a Level 3 engineer and repeatedly reminded him in the letter of recommendation that the street and the rolling mill had to do all the work to ensure Li Yang's living conditions.
Now, not only was the house occupied, but even the furniture had been moved away. This made her, the director of the street office, feel very embarrassed. She wanted to slap Jia Zhangshi a few times.
There was actually such a thick-skinned person in this world!
Seeing that Chief Wang was angry, Jia Zhangshi simply lay on the ground and began to throw a tantrum.
"Hey, Old Merchant, open your eyes and take a look!”
"If you leave, we'll be bullied!”
"Now someone is framing me for stealing. I don't want to live anymore!”
"Old Merchant, take me away!”
Jia Zhang-shi rolled on the ground, her fat body trembling. Everyone quickly retreated, afraid of being blackmailed.
Li Yang found it funny as if he was watching a monkey show.
"Jia Zhang-shi, what are you doing!”
"Get up quickly!"
"Qin Huairu, quickly pull your mother-in-law up!”
Yi Zhonghai felt Director Wang's murderous gaze and quickly shouted.
In his heart, he hated Jia Zhang-shi to the extreme.
Under Yi Zhonghai's management, the Siheyuan rarely had such a thing happen today. Even when Silly Zhu beat up Xu Damao from time to time, he suppressed it. He did not make a big deal out of it because of the year-end advanced courtyard selection.
With such a ruckus in front of Chief Wang today, this year's advanced class was probably in danger.
Qin Huairu was not willing to step forward and had long hidden at the back with Little Dang Huai Hua. Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to personally go to the Raja Zhang family.
"What are you doing!"
"Let me go!"
Jia Zhangshi kicked her two fat legs hard, not letting Yi Zhonghai get close.
"Chief Wang, here's the list."
At this moment, Xiao Liu from the street office ran back with a yellowed piece of paper in his hand.
"Yes, this is it."
"There are also my and Li Shengli's signatures on it.”
Chief Wang took the paper and said with certainty.
Everyone turned their heads, wanting to see clearly.
Jia Zhangshi was also under Yi Zhonghai and Silly Zhu's control. The moment she saw the list, her face turned ashen.
"Hmph, old thing, even if I don't kill you today, you'll lose a layer of skin!”
Li Yang stood beside Chief Wang and looked down.
"Due to work transfer, Li Shengli's family moved to the Great Northern Wilderness.”
"This list is certified by Director Wang of the street office.”
Chief Wang read,
"One round table and five wooden chairs."
"Two camp beds and two blankets.”
"One iron pot, two hot water bottles…"
“......”
After Chief Wang finished reading, everyone looked at Jia Zhangshi who was lying on the ground.
Damn, the pile of furniture and daily necessities left behind by the Li family was all gone!
No outsider had ever come to the courtyard in these years. Ever since Jia Zhangshi had occupied this house, they had indeed seen Jia Zhangshi take things home from the Li family from time to time.
In the beginning, everyone would say a few words, but later on, they were used to it and could not be bothered.
Unexpectedly, Jia Zhang-shi actually emptied the Li family!
Li Yang was also a little surprised. Although the item was not expensive and was not worth much, it still belonged to his family.
"Old thing, let me ask you, where did my things go?!”
Li Yang questioned.
Jia Zhangshi's dead pig was not afraid of boiling water." How would I know!”
"Anyway, I didn't take it!"
Li Yang knew that Jia Zhangshi would say this, and he didn't plan to let the Jia family return it.
Even if the item was still there, Li Yang would not use it.
He found it disgusting!
"Chief Wang, I roughly estimated that according to the price ten years ago, these things are worth at least 150 yuan.”
"Now that we definitely can't get the things back, let the Jia Zhang family compensate us.”
Li Yang predicted that Jia Zhangshi wouldn't fork out this sum of money. Alright then, I'll send you directly to the police station!
Li Yang was now a Level 3 Engineer, so he earned 240 RMB and 50 cents a month. 150 RMB was only half a month's salary.
What he wanted to do was to properly punish the Jia Zhang-shi!
Chief Wang heard this and agreed with Li Yang.
"Jia Zhang-shi, don't quibble anymore. With so many witnesses, you were the one who took it.”
"Now, compensate Li Yang 150 yuan and this matter will be over!”
Qin Huairu was stunned when she heard that the compensation was 150 yuan.
She had replaced Jia Dongxu to work in the rolling mill. Her monthly salary was only 27.50 yuan. She did not expect her mother-in-law to sell the Li family's things behind her back and get so much money!
She did not see a single cent!
Instantly, Qin Huairu's gaze towards Jia Zhangshi was filled with hatred.
Jia Zhangshi's face turned green. She had been selling things intermittently over the years, and more than half of the money had been spent by her. The rest was used as her retirement money.
Asking her to pay for it was as unbearable as taking her life.
"Bullshit!"
"How can you have so much money? This is extortion!”
Jia Zhangshi was exasperated. She couldn't compensate them. Besides, she didn't have that much money now.
Li Yang chuckled." You don't want to compensate me?”
"This is the first time I've heard that you don't have to pay for stealing.”
"Chief Wang, what do you think we should do in this situation?”
Chief Wang's face darkened. This Jia Zhangshi was actually so bold. It seemed that he was usually too soft-hearted. This kind of person must be severely punished!
"If we don't punish Jia Zhangshi severely, there will be no law!”
"We have to call the police!"
