Chapter 79: Reporter's reputation (page 12)
Middle courtyard, Jia's house.
"Why don't Dongxu come back?"
Qin Huairu prepared dinner, and the whole family gathered around the table, waiting for Jia Dongxu, the pillar of the family, to come back to start dinner. However, they waited and waited, but no one came back. If it was normal, they would have returned by this time.
"Go to Lao Yi's house across the street and ask, doesn't Dongxu usually go to and from get off work with him?"
Seeing that the food was almost getting cold, Jia Zhang couldn't help but say.
After hearing this, Qin Huairu got up and walked to Yi Zhonghai's house. When she entered, Yi Zhonghai and his wife were also having dinner.
"Master, why hasn't Dongxu come back from get off work? Aren't you two together today?" Qin Huairu asked.
"Huh? Dongxu hasn't come back yet? When we got off work today, we were supposed to go together, but Dongxu said that his stomach suddenly hurt and he needed to go to the toilet. He asked me to leave first, so I came back first!" Yi Zhonghai said.
"It doesn't take so long to go to the toilet. I haven't come back yet. Did something happen?" Qin Huairu asked anxiously.
"What could happen?"
Yi Zhonghai shook his head. Could it be that he fell into the cesspit in the toilet?
"In this case, I'll go ask Lao Liu. He left late today. Maybe he saw Dongxu!"
As Yi Zhonghai said this, he was about to walk to Liu Haizhong's house in the backyard.
As a result, as soon as he went out, before he had time to go to the backyard, he bumped into Xu Damao who came back from outside.
As soon as Xu Damao saw Yi Zhonghai, an inexplicable smile filled his face. Yi Zhonghai didn't know what was going on when he heard Xu Damao standing in the middle courtyard and said loudly: "Sir, you usually think of yourself as a gentleman, but you always Those who teach you this and that are all talking about benevolence, justice and morality, but why can’t you even teach your own disciples well? I think you are just putting on pretense and trying to gain fame!"
"Xu Damao, what are you talking about? It's inexplicable!" Yi Zhonghai hadn't reacted yet. He just thought that Xu Damao drank too much outside again and couldn't control his mouth.
However, Qin Huairu heard something mysterious, and her heart skipped a beat. She looked at Xu Damao and asked, "Xu Damao, what's wrong with Dongxu? Do you know anything?"
"Hey, you don't know what you mean. Listen carefully. Jia Dongxu has been arrested. When I left the factory, I happened to see Jia Dongxu being carried by the arms to the security office by several security guards. And go, it seems that the crime you committed is not light!"
Xu Damao was just watching the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, so he deliberately said loudly, wishing that everyone in the hospital would know about it.
"What? Dongxu was arrested by people from the security department? How is this possible? Why were Dongxu arrested?" Yi Zhonghai became anxious when he heard this.
Jia Dongxu is not only his apprentice, but also a candidate for retirement. If something happens to this, wouldn't ten years of hard work be in vain?
So when he heard Xu Damao say this, Yi Zhonghai was even more anxious than Qin Huairu. He jumped from the veranda to the middle of the yard with a long stride, grabbing Xu Damao and wanted to ask him.
"Why should we arrest him? He must have committed a crime. Otherwise, how could the security department arrest people at will?" Xu Damao said.
"What did he do? Dongxu always behaved himself in the factory, what could he do?" Yi Zhonghai really didn't know what Jia Dongxu could do.
"Then I don't know. I just saw him being escorted by security guards from a distance when I came out. I didn't hear what happened specifically!" Xu Damao shook his head and said.
At this time, Mrs. Jia and Zhang also heard the noise and ran out of the room. As she ran, she was still muttering: "Oh, old Jia, why am I so miserable? You are all here to bully us, Xu Damao, you piece of shit, you How dare you arrange something for our Dongxu, let’s see if I don’t tear your mouth apart!”
When Xu Damao saw Jia Zhang rushing over like a ball of flesh, he immediately shuddered, hurriedly broke free from Yi Zhonghai's hands, and ran away.
He didn't want to get involved with Jia Zhang, a shrew.
Just at this moment, Silly Zhu hurriedly walked into the courtyard from outside carrying his lunch box.
This guy hadn't figured out what was going on. When he saw Qin Huairu standing in the middle of the yard, he quickly walked over and said, "Sister Qin, Sister Qin, tell me why Jia Dongxu is so incompetent and steals things from the factory. , now it’s fine, I’ve been arrested by the security department, what will I do if you are left orphaned and widowed!”
"What? Stealing something?"
Qin Huairu didn't quite believe Xu Damao's words at first, after all, this guy had almost become a habit of talking nonsense, but now that he heard Si Zhu say the same thing, he was probably inseparable.
"Si Zhu, you little beast without a father and a mother, you dare to bully our family, I will fight with you!" Jia Zhang failed to catch Jia Dongxu, and now rushed towards Si Zhu again.
"Sister-in-law, calm down!"
Yi Zhonghai grabbed Jia Zhang, then looked at Silly Zhu and asked, "What did Dongxu steal? Did you see clearly?"
"I don't know. I heard that he stole things from the factory and was caught on the spot by the security guards when he went out." Silly Zhu said with some gloating.
"Do you know what Dongxu stole?"
Yi Zhonghai looked at Qin Huairu. In her opinion, if Jia Dongxu really stole something from the factory, even if he hid it from his master, Qin Huairu should know it.
"Mom, did you tell Dongxu last night about getting some old newspapers from the factory?" Qin Huairu glanced at Jia Zhang and asked.
Since the last time, Mrs. Jia and Zhang now burn some paper for Lao Jia from time to time. Of course, she must be reluctant to buy the yellow paper. The rainwater writing pad she took from Sha Zhu’s house has also been used up, so she can only use it. The idea hit the newspaper.
"How is that possible? Dongxu has brought some old newspapers back from the factory before, and nothing has ever happened to him!" Jia Zhang said.
All the newspapers on the walls of their house were bought by Jia Dongxu from the factory. There has indeed never been any trouble before.
"Stealing newspapers? This is indeed not a big problem. However, our factory security department has a new deputy director. This new officer has been in office for three years, so there's no telling!" Yi Zhonghai said with a frown.
"Then what will happen if Dongxu really takes the newspaper from the factory? Will he be fired?" Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai and asked.
"That's not the case. If you really only took some newspapers, the security department would at most give Dongxu a warning and conduct a review in the workshop." Yi Zhonghai said.
"I can rest assured that!"
Qin Huairu said: "Mom, please go back first. Don't be anxious. I think this matter may have something to do with Xiang Yunduan. This guy has been too quiet in recent days. I'm surprised. It turns out he wants to Threaten me with Dongxu!"
With a smile on her face, Qin Huairu went directly to the front yard after speaking.
Xiang Yunduan was preparing to cook when he saw Qin Huairu coming over with her mouth raised and her body twisted.
"Xiang Yunduan, Dongxu was arrested by people from the factory security office. Are you the one causing trouble behind the scenes?" Qin Huairu said, looking into the room.
"Don't look, it's your turn to work the evening shift today, and you won't get off work until tomorrow morning!"
As soon as Xiang Yunduan saw Qin Huairu's actions, he knew that this woman wanted to stir up trouble with her younger brother.
