Chapter 144
When the comrades at the police station saw the old branch secretary, they couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I said the old branch secretary, why is there something wrong in your village?" This big New Year does not let people have a good year. ”
The comrades at the police station were on duty in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and I thought that there was nothing big about today, after all, it was the New Year, but I didn't expect to have to brave the cold wind to go to work.
The old branch secretary was also very embarrassed, and said to the comrades at the police station with a smile, "It's really hard, and we have no choice but to call you here." ”
The comrades at the police station immediately smiled and said, "You're welcome, old branch secretary, I just made a joke, what happened?" Let's solve the problem first. ”
Then the old branch secretary nodded, and then asked the old village chief to be optimistic about the people in the village, and he took the comrades from the police station, as well as Lin Aimin, Widow Yang, Feng Caixia, and Zhao Yanan, into the office.
After entering the office, the old branch secretary asked Lin Aimin, Feng Caixia, and Widow Yang to tell the matter separately.
The public security comrade at the police station nodded knowingly, and then asked the old branch secretary to make a room alone, and he wanted to talk to a few people alone.
The first person to talk to the comrades at the police station was Lin Aimin.
Lin Aimin's heart was open, no matter what the comrades at the police station asked, he could answer it, the comrades at the police station asked several times, Lin Aimin answered the same way, and the comrades at the police station let him out.
Then the comrades from the police station called Feng Caixia in.
Feng Caixia repeated what she had just said, but the comrade from the police station suddenly interrupted her and said, "Wait a minute, this woman comrade, how do you know that the lock on the door is Lin Aimin's?" ”
Feng Caixia was stunned for a moment, of course she knew in her heart that the lock on the door was Yang Liu's, which Yang Liu said herself.
But in front of the public security comrades, Feng Caixia still said with a smile, "What Widow Yang said, I also listened to Widow Yang's words......"
The public security comrade nodded and said, "In other words, you didn't see with your own eyes that Lin Aimin locked the door." ”
Feng Caixia nodded, not daring to talk nonsense anymore.
The public security comrade then looked at Feng Caixia with a smile, "This comrade, as far as I know, you seem to be Lin Aimin's sister-in-law." ”
Feng Caixia nodded, "That's right." ”
"However, Comrade Public Security, let me tell you, although I am Lin Aimin's sister-in-law, I have always been selfless, and Lin Aimin has done this kind of thing, so I naturally want to kill my relatives in righteousness."
The public security comrade smiled and suddenly said, "This woman comrade, as far as I know, your relationship with Lin Aimin's family does not seem to be very good. ”
"Lin Aimin also said before that you want your husband and two sons to work in a chalk factory, but he didn't agree, is there such a thing?"
Feng Caixia wanted to deny it, but many people knew about it, so she had to nod and say, "There is such a thing, but Comrade Public Security, I am not taking the opportunity to retaliate, you have to believe me." ”
The public security comrades did not respond positively to Feng Caixia's words, but let Feng Caixia go out, was locked in another room alone, and called Widow Yang in.
Widow Yang was very empty in the face of others, and at this time, she was even more nervous in the face of the public security comrades.
When he entered the door, he stood straight and straight, his head bowed, like a criminal who had committed a crime.
The public security comrade smiled and spoke, "Comrade, don't be afraid, sit down." ”
Widow Yang nodded with a look on her face, and sat in the farthest place from the public security comrades.
The public security comrades saw that there were many red marks on Widow Yang's body, and knew that she had been beaten, so they sighed in their hearts.
But the most critical question at present is not this, so he asked, "Comrade Yang Guizhi, please answer me truthfully, does Lin Aimin really want to mess with you about the relationship between men and women?" ”
Widow Yang was a little afraid of the public security comrades at the police station, but for her own sake, she still nodded.
The public security comrade learned from the old branch secretary that Widow Yang was very timid, so the public security comrade suddenly turned cold and yelled, "Yang Guizhi, you'd better tell the truth, I already have some evidence here, if you don't tell the truth and I find out, then you will go to prison......"
When Yang Guizhi heard the public security comrade say that he had some evidence in his hand, he immediately panicked, and his lips trembled, "The public security... Comrade, listen to me, I am also forced to ......"
When the public security comrade saw that Widow Yang wanted to confess, his heart was also different, he didn't expect that he just said a heavy word, blew up, and was about to confess, this courage is too small.
What the public security comrades didn't know was that before he came, Widow Yang had already suffered a lot of condemnation.
And the arrival of the public security comrades is like the last straw that crushes the camel's back, she is not very bold, and it is not easy to hold on until now.
Even the public security comrades were a little speechless, he thought that he wanted to investigate this matter clearly, I was afraid that it would not be easy, but he didn't expect that he didn't have to work hard, and Widow Yang recruited herself.
Then, the public security comrades asked Widow Yang a lot of questions, and learned that Widow Yang's purpose was to coerce Lin Aimin and force Lin Aimin to divorce Zhao Yanan and marry her.
The public security comrades looked at Widow Yang with a little disgust in their eyes, this kind of thing is too immoral, no one is innocent, and they want to ruin the family.
Moreover, if you marry a woman like Widow Yang, it is strange that you can live a good life in the future.
Widow Yang may have loved Yang Liu, so she didn't say Yang Liu, but only said that she wanted to live a better life.
After knowing that Lin Aimin became the factory director and had a salary of 60 yuan a month, he had a crooked mind and wanted to destroy other people's families and marry Lin Aimin to live a good life.
Widow Yang was recruited, but Feng Caixia couldn't do anything if she wanted to, so she had to recruit people too.
The public security comrades explained the whole matter to all the villagers, and the people in the village immediately insulted Widow Yang and Feng Caixia, especially Widow Yang.
The women of the village were very ashamed of her. Mrs. Lin used to stand out for Feng Caixia, but now that the truth is revealed, she felt faceless, and ran home slowly, not daring to show her head again.
Old Man Lin watched here for a while before, and now that the truth of the matter came out, he felt ashamed, lowered his head, and left with his waist down.
Lin Aiguo and his two sons were a little worried about Feng Caixia, and hurriedly ran to the public security comrades and asked with concern, "Comrade, my daughter-in-law was also deceived by that Widow Yang, and she is also innocent ......."
The public security comrade looked at Lin Aiguo desperately defending Feng Caixia, and said impatiently, "Okay, the whole thing is clear, and your daughter-in-law is not innocent!" ”
"She is also counting on Widow Yang to marry Lin Aimin and get the three of you to work as workers in the factory!"
Lin Aiguo was taught a lesson, and he didn't dare to reply, so he only asked the public security comrades in a low voice, "Then when will my daughter-in-law return home?" Can we walk now? ”
The public security comrade squinted at Lin Aiguo, "Do you think she can leave now?" She partnered with Widow Yang and wanted to pour dirty water on Lin Aimin, frame others, and mess with Widow Yang's relationship between men and women, this is a crime! ”
"She has to go back to the police station with me, and as for when she will go home, I don't count it."
After the public security comrade said this, he entered the office, and then took Feng Caixia, Widow Yang's mother and daughter, back to the police station.
The old Lin family had no taste for the New Year, but I didn't expect Feng Caixia to be arrested by the public security comrades at the police station in her Chinese New Year's Eve, and now the old Lin family had a tasteless year, and the whole family sat in the cold room at night, dejected.
Originally, after the Chinese New Year, Feng Caixia also arranged a blind date for Lin Changfu, and there was no need to go now.
If this matter spreads, Feng Caixia's reputation will be ruined, and Lin Changfu and Lin Changgui are afraid that they will not be good girls.
Although Widow Yang did not confess Yang Liu, Feng Caixia would not have any scruples.
The public security comrades said that as long as she confessed leniently, resisted strictly, and told the facts, her mistakes would be mitigated a little, so Feng Caixia did not hesitate to tell Yang Liu.
Yang Liu was fourteen years old, although he was fifteen after the New Year, but the legal age was still fourteen years old, and he was also taken to the police station for education.
After the truth was revealed, the villagers stepped forward to comfort Lin Aimin's family.
Lin Aimin felt very tired today, and after thanking everyone, he went home.
The food on the table at home was already cold, Zhao Yanan endured her anger and heated the food, although she was already full, but there were still a few children.
The atmosphere at home was relatively sluggish, Zhao Yanan heated the food, put it on the table, and then beckoned Lin Aimin and a few children to eat. Zhao Yanan saw Lin Aimin's calm face, so he comforted him in a low voice, "Child, dad, don't be angry, the truth has been revealed, Widow Yang was also arrested at the police station, I believe that the public security comrades will be able to call the shots for us." ”
Lin Aimin nodded, sighed and said, "I know, even this is still a little uncomfortable in my heart." ”
Lin Aimin not only cared about Widow Yang, but also what Mrs. Lin said.
Although the relationship between the two parties is not so deep, Mrs. Lin is Lin Aimin's mother after all, and it is strange that Lin Aimin can feel comfortable when her mother says that kind of thing.
Lin Yin saw that his parents were a little depressed, so he took the initiative to step forward, held Lin Aimin's big hand with his little hand, and comforted him gently, "Dad, don't be angry, those people are not worthy of our anger, you are angry, those people are not only not worried, but will be happy." ”
Lin Aimin felt Lin Yin's small hand, which was incredibly soft, and a warm current crossed his heart, and the big stone in his heart seemed to disappear in an instant, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.
Lin Aimin stretched out his other hand, gently touched Lin Yin's little head, and said with a smile, "It's still my family who is the most sensible, what I said is right, it's not worth being sad for those people, let's eat." ”
The three brothers, Zhao Yanan and Lin Changping, saw that Lin Aimin finally had a smile on his face, and they were also relieved, and the family began to eat.
Lin Yin gags from time to time and tells a few jokes, and the atmosphere slowly warms up.
The evening was the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and after lunch, Zhao Yanan was in a much better mood and began to prepare dinner.
The dinner of the Chinese New Year's Eve should be prepared richer, this year the family conditions are good, bought a lot of meat, Zhao Yanan decided, stir-fry a few more meat dishes in the evening, and stew the big carp that the mother's family gave her.
In the afternoon, Zhao Yanan stood in the kitchen making dumplings, and Sister-in-law Zhou came.
Sister-in-law Zhou saw that Lin Yin's house was quiet, and after entering the kitchen, Zhao Yanan hurriedly beckoned Sister-in-law Zhou to sit down.
Sister-in-law Zhou asked, "Where is your family?" You're sick out of gas, aren't you? ”
Zhao Yanan sighed and said, "Lying in the house." ”
After speaking, he smiled bitterly, "This big New Year is simply bad luck for our family!" ”
Sister-in-law Zhou nodded in agreement, "Who said it wasn't?" Your sister-in-law is too, she actually helps outsiders, her heart is really black! ”
Zhao Yanan said while making dumplings, "Feng Caixia doesn't like our family, it's not a day or two, it's just that I didn't expect her to do so much, everyone is a family after all, who would have thought that she would be so ruthless?" ”
"Yes, there is also that Widow Yang, who has been honest for so many years before, but I didn't expect to fall in love with your family, it's really a lack of great virtue!"
"Just because your family has a monthly salary, she wants to live a good life, she wants to break up your husband and wife, and destroy your family, if this kind of woman was before, maybe she would have to dip in the pig cage, shameless!"
Sister-in-law Zhou washed her hands and also helped Zhao Yanan make dumplings.
Zhao Yanan said, "This is really a person sitting at home, disaster comes from the sky, I want to live a good life, earn it with my own hands, and stare at others all day long." ”
"Yes." Sister-in-law Zhou suddenly chuckled twice, gloating, "That Widow Yang has a bad reputation in the village because of her daughter's affairs, and now that this is happening, the old branch secretary said that he would drive them out!" ”
"Really?" Zhao Yanan's face showed a look of joy.
Widow Yang's mother and daughter are the rat droppings that ruined a pot of soup, if they can be driven out, the village will be quiet in the future.
However, Zhao Yanan then said a little depressed, "It's not as good as before, if they don't want to leave, the old branch secretary can't drive them away, right?" ”
Sister-in-law Zhou lowered her head to make dumplings and said, "This is also true, now everyone has to listen to the country, but ......"
Sister-in-law Zhou said again, "I heard that this matter is quite serious in nature, and Widow Yang will go to prison if she can't get it right." ”
"If Widow Yang is in prison, there will be only Yang Liu's girl left in her house, and without her mother, presumably that girl will not be able to make any waves."
"This is not ......," Zhao Yanan shook his head.
"Don't forget, that girl didn't think much before she was ruthless!"
After being reminded by Zhao Yanan, Sister-in-law Zhou thought of Yang Liu's previous fierce achievements, so she nodded approvingly and said, "You are right, the bad things she did in the past, because she was young, the public security comrades couldn't do anything to her, and now that she is fifteen years old, if she dares to do bad things, maybe she will also go to prison." ”
Zhao Yanan talked to Sister-in-law Zhou for a long time, and the depression in her heart almost dissipated.
Sister-in-law Zhou saw that Zhao Yanan's face was much better, and helped Zhao Yanan finish wrapping the dumplings before leaving.
She also has to prepare dinner in the evening, although she is not as rich as Lin Yin's family, but this year Zhou's sister-in-law's husband also built a factory, with a salary of 30 yuan per month, and he also cut several catties of meat during the New Year, so he can have a good New Year.
In winter, when it gets dark early, the stove is warm in the house, and the table is placed next to it, and several dishes have been placed on the table, including fish, chicken, and meat.
Zhao Yanan brought the boiled dumplings to the table and said to Lin Aimin and several children, "Come, let's eat." ”
This meal is the most hearty that Lin Yin has eaten since he came to this world, the pork and green onion stuffed dumplings are fragrant and delicious, the dumplings are very small, and Lin Yin can eat one in one bite.
This time Zhao Yanan was ruthless, there was no cabbage in the dumplings, only green onions and pork, the special fragrance of green onions, with the salty fragrance of pork, Lin Yin, who ate it, was satisfied.
Zhao Yanan saw that the children were eating happily, and their appetite was much better, and after eating, Zhao Yanan cleaned up the table.
In this era, there was no radio or TV at home, so Lin Yin took the initiative to tell everyone a story, and everyone was naturally happy, but I don't know how much they talked about, Lin Yin drank another saliva and continued to tell.
Zhao Yanan was a little distressed, and hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, let's get here first, I'll talk about it another day, it's time to sleep." ”
He said to Lin Yin again, "Don't drink any more water, be careful of wetting the bed at night." ”
Lin Yin heard Zhao Yanan remind herself not to wet the bed, her little face turned red all of a sudden, she was such a big person, how could she wet the bed?
Zhao Yanan saw that the little girl was shy, so she stopped joking, laid out the bedding, and let the children sleep.
Lin Yin was indeed sleepy, as soon as he lay down in the bed, he yawned, and when he was sleeping in a daze, he heard the sound of firecrackers outside.
Last year, everyone had a good life, especially in the village, people who could enter the chalk factory to work, after earning money, they all bought firecrackers for the New Year, and Lin Yin's family was not surprised.
There is a custom in this village that firecrackers are set off after 12 o'clock in the morning after the Chinese New Year's Eve.
In the past few years, the policy does not allow people to be poor, and few people can set off firecrackers, but this year the days are good, Lin Aimin got up in the middle of the night, took the firecrackers that had been prepared long ago, took them to the yard, hung them on the branches, lit the fuse, and the firecrackers suddenly crackled.
The sound of firecrackers was very loud, waking up Lin Yin, who was sleeping in a daze, Lin Yin rubbed his eyes and squinted, looked out, and just saw the lit firecrackers, and a spark came out.
The sound of firecrackers quickly disappeared, Lin Aimin put on his clothes and returned to the house, seeing that Lin Yin was awake, he said with a smile, "The firecrackers are finished, go to sleep quickly, I have to get up early tomorrow morning." ”
The conditions are simple, Lin Yin still sleeps on the same kang with Zhao Yanan and Lin Aimin, and the three brothers sleep in another house, although Lin Yin is not used to it, but the conditions are difficult and can only be like this, fortunately, their family is going to build a house in the early spring, and she will be able to have a house of her own at that time.
Hearing Lin Aimin's words, Lin Yin yawned, nodded, and fell asleep again.
slept until 5:00 in the morning, Zhao Yanan and Lin Aimin began to get up, the sound of firecrackers outside came and went, Lin Yin couldn't sleep after being woken up, so he simply got up quickly.
After Lin Yin got up, he found that the three brothers had already gotten up and had gone out to play with their friends.
Lin Aimin didn't go out with Zhao Yanan to pay New Year's greetings, he left first, he had made an appointment with a few friends who had a very good relationship yesterday, and went to the elders' homes in the village to pay New Year's greetings.
Zhao Yanan took Lin Yin to visit various homes for the New Year, and the little red jacket that Zhao Yanan bought for her that Lin Yin was wearing, coupled with her current appearance, is much higher than when she first came, it can be described as a heaven and an underground, plus the child's skin is good, and it has a natural filter in the eyes of adults, Lin Yin at this time can also be said to be cute in the eyes of outsiders.
Especially Lin Yin's study is good, and children who study well are especially liked by adults, so after Lin Yin followed Zhao Yanan around, his pocket was already stuffed with small snacks such as melon seeds and candy balls.
Before I knew it, it was dawn, Zhao Yanan took Lin Yin home and started cooking, there were a lot of dumplings yesterday, and there were a lot of left, Zhao Yanan first put them in the courtyard and froze them, this morning, boil the water, and just put the dumplings directly.
Zhao Yanan was making dumplings, Lin Aimin came back with his three sons, and when Lin Changping saw Lin Yin, the three of them happily took out the delicious food in their pockets and put it on the table for Lin Yin to eat.
Lin Yin was not stingy, took out the delicious food he got, put it on the table, and motioned for the three brothers to eat together.
On the other side, Zhao Yanan whispered to Lin Aimin, "Boss, I didn't go to my parents." ”
When Lin Aimin heard this, he didn't care, and only whispered, "I didn't go either." ”
The couple glanced at each other, and Lin Aimin said casually, "I won't be going this year, presumably my parents don't want to see us." ”
Zhao Yanan nodded approvingly and agreed.
After the family ate, it was already 8:30 in the morning, Lin Yin didn't sleep well last night, got up early, and kept yawning after eating, Zhao Yanan hurriedly said, "Nannan, you go sleep for a while." ”
Lin Yin nodded and went to sleep on the kang.
Lin Changping's three boys were full of energy, and after eating, they wanted to take Lin Yin out to play, but when Lin Yin slept, they went out together.
Lin Yin slept until 12:00 noon, and it was time to eat.
I didn't eat dumplings at noon, Zhao Yanan fried two meat dishes, heated a few white-flour steamed buns, Lin Yin was refreshed after eating at noon, and followed the three brothers out to play, met Zhao Xue on the way, and a group of people went to the river to skate.
Yesterday the Chinese New Year's Eve, the matter was quite big, after all, the whole village knew that in the evening, the old branch book came to Lin Aimin, and Lin Aimin hurriedly asked Zhao Yanan to bring a glass of sugar water to the old branch book.
The old branch secretary sat opposite Lin Aimin and said in a low voice, "I got the news from the police station, Widow Yang was sentenced to three years, your sister-in-law Feng Caixia was sentenced to half a year, Yang Liu was young, and Widow Yang took all the charges, and the police station only educated her for a while and let her go." ”
Lin Aimin nodded, looked at the old branch secretary with a grateful face, and said, "The old branch secretary, this time I have caused you trouble again." ”
The old branch secretary waved his hand and said, "What kind of trouble is this?" I don't blame you for this, if you want to blame Widow Yang, the woman who doesn't abide by women's morals, is not greedy enough, and has a bad reputation. ”
After the old branch secretary finished talking about this, he said to Lin Aimin, "I still want to ask you, after the Chinese New Year, will our factory increase the production of chalk?" ”
Then Lin Aimin discussed with the old branch secretary, and after the Chinese New Year, the production plan of the factory.
At this time, Zhao Yanan also finished the meal, and Lin Aimin hurriedly said, "Old branch secretary, let's eat first, and then talk after eating." ”
The old branch secretary stood up, waved his hand and said, "You guys eat, I'll leave first, my family has already cooked." ”
Lin Aimin hurriedly said, "Old branch secretary, let's eat at our house." ”
Zhao Yanan also said, "Old branch secretary, you can eat at our house, I deliberately ordered an extra bowl of dumplings." ”
The old branch secretary still refused, and said with a smile, "I know that the two of you are sincere, but today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so I won't stay." ”
Seeing that the old branch secretary was determined to leave, Lin Aimin and Zhao Yanan sent the old branch secretary to the door and watched the old branch secretary leave.
The family was about to eat, Lin Aiguo took his two sons to the door, at this time Lin Aiguo's originally black hair, as if his head had turned white overnight, the whole person was extremely haggard, a face was obviously old, his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of pleading when he looked at Lin Aimin, Lin Changfu and Lin Changgui, who followed him, had a pair of red and swollen eyes, and his body was no longer arrogant.
Lin Aimin saw the father and son, and said coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”
