Chapter 545 Interesting, boring
The neighbors who were watching the fun whispered to each other.
"Yeah, this Xu Damao is really a piece of shit."
"Can you say this in front of a child?"
"Silly Zhu, don't be fooled by your usual carelessness. You are really decisive at the critical moment."
"Tsk, you have such a simple mind. How can you have such a good relationship with Chief Engineer Gao? He may be stupid about small things, but not at all about big things."
When Xu Damao heard this, his head buzzed!
It’s over, I’ve been caught by this kid!
"I'm not...I..."
Before he could finish his words, Liu Hai, who had been watching the fun, spoke up.
"Xu Damao, your behavior is extremely bad. Don't try to make excuses! I will report your insult to the orphan of a worker who fell on the job to the Security Department tomorrow!"
Liu Haizhong, who has become the third uncle, now has a strong sense of crisis and wants to seize every opportunity to return to the position of the second uncle. He can't rely on the first uncle for the time being. Looking at Yi Zhonghai's posture, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to retreat, he probably can't reach it.
But it's okay, at least he can't let Yan Laokou ride on his head. Liu Haizhong set himself the goal of defeating Yan Bugui in the yard and defeating Yi Zhonghai in the factory position. Then everything will be done.
In a situation like today, when Xu Damao was detained for saying the wrong thing, he stood up without hesitation. To him, this was called picking up a bargain.
The one who initiated the struggle was Qin Huairu, and the one who got the evidence was Sha Zhu, but how to use this evidence, isn't it my, Old Liu's job?
For the neighbors in the yard, Liu Haizhong is still known as the third uncle, and after all, he is also the security officer of the factory. Although he has no rank, his status is still high enough. When they saw Liu Haizhong coming out to uphold justice, they praised him one after another.
In Gao Zhendong's view, this is called judging by performance rather than intention.
"Third uncle is right. We must report this matter to the factory. Master Qin is already pitiful enough. We can't let our child Xu Damao bully him for nothing."
"Yes, Lao Jia passed away early, and the orphans and widows he left behind should not be treated lightly."
"Uncle San, I support you!"
"Great job, Uncle!"
"..."
In the more than one year since Jia Dongxu's death, the neighbors have seen everything Qin Huairu has done. She has nothing to complain about to the young and old, and she has also worked hard. Under the guidance of Yi Zhonghai, she has done a lot of practical things.
At another time, she would be worshipped as a role model of a self-reliant and independent new-age woman.
So when it came to talking, the neighbors naturally tended to favor Qin Huairu.
Xu Damao was so frightened that he said, "Uncle, please don't hurt me."
But in the TV series, the two of them were able to collude to cheat Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui because at that time they had common interests and there was no competitive relationship. In a situation like today, they would naturally cheat each other to death.
Seeing his neighbors showing their support, Liu Haizhong became even more excited.
"Xu Damao, how can this be called harming you? This is to save you. As your uncle, I can't just watch you go further and further down the wrong path. The facts are right in front of us. What I saw alone doesn't count. It shouldn't be a problem if the neighbors in the whole yard saw it, right?"
At this point, Liu Haizhong felt that he should find someone with status to testify together.
He looked around and saw Gao Zhendong at first sight. Oh, this is not good. It is too much. Besides, he is not sure whether Gao Zhendong will join him in making trouble. He looked at Gao Zhendong and was really scared.
In fact, he guessed wrong about this matter. If he had called Gao Zhendong, the latter would have stood up without hesitation, because the reason was there. Gao Zhendong didn't need to think too much about this kind of thing.
Looking again, Yi Zhonghai is there, but Yi Zhonghai is Qin Huairu's master, so it's not appropriate. Liu Haizhong understands this point.
He glanced around and saw Xie Jianye.
Well, this one is good. He is an official and a security guard, so he is naturally close to me.
Liu Haizhong's eyes rolled, "Chief Xie, do you think this makes sense?"
Xie Jianye is the same as Gao Zhendong. Just see where the reason is and don’t think too much about other things.
Seeing that Liu Haizhong had pointed at him, Xie Jianye smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's the truth. We all heard it just now. Xu Damao himself admitted this matter."
Just state the facts, no need to say anything else, Liu Haizhong will do it naturally.
Xu Damao almost knelt down to Liu Haizhong: "Uncle San... Uncle Er, please don't hurt me. I just got angry and said that casually. I didn't mean it."
Maybe she realized that she was crying at the wrong grave just by arguing with Liu Haizhong, so she turned to Qin Huairu and begged: "Sister Qin, please help me. I will apologize to your family. It's all my fault. I won't do it again next time. Just treat me as a fart and let me go."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Banggeng: "Banggeng, uncle apologizes to you. I won't scold you again next time. Ah, uncle will buy you some candy later."
Bang Geng's eyes lit up and he was about to speak when Qin Huairu covered his mouth.
Qin Huairu felt a little sorry for Xu Damao, thinking that although he was hateful, he had been unlucky recently, so she should just let him go. But when she saw Xu Damao looking for an ignorant kid, she thought it was not fair to let the kid talk about it.
This is bullying your own child twice!
Looking at Sha Zhu again, he shook his head implicitly and hardened his heart. The child is growing up and he might be bullied again. It is better to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys. With Xu Damao as an example, even if others have that intention, they will be much more restrained.
Besides, Xu Damao is a bastard with a lot of bad intentions. It's just right to use him to establish authority. If it were any other neighbor, they really wouldn't be able to do that.
"Xu Damao, you are so shameless. You are the one who caused trouble for the kid. You are the one who tried to settle the matter with the kid. So you only know how to bully the ignorant kids? Let me tell you today, this matter is not over!"
After saying that, she turned around and bowed to Liu Haizhong: "Uncle, thank you for speaking up for this matter. My family will go with you to report it tomorrow!"
Tomorrow is Sunday, but that doesn’t mean the Third Rolling Mill won’t be working. The workers work in three shifts.
Qin Huairu's words immediately made Liu Haizhong feel proud, and Liu Haizhong kept praising her.
After she finished speaking, without giving Xu Damao a chance to struggle in front of anyone, she took the child and turned away. Now that the real person was gone, it was useless for Xu Damao to tell anyone about this.
Seeing that there was nothing interesting to watch, Gao Zhendong and Xie Jianye looked at each other and took their wives home.
The other neighbors dispersed, muttering.
"You still can't do this thing of kicking the widow's door."
"That's right, I think this widow is quite capable and can stand her ground."
"Yes, I can stand firm in everything I do."
"..."
Gao Zhendong and his wife returned home. Lou Xiaoe thought about the excitement just now and suddenly had an idea: "Zhendong, do you think Sister Qin and Master He will..."
Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "It's hard to say. Anyway, it's a new society, so it's their freedom."
"Yeah, that's right. I think these two are okay. Although Sister Qin is old, Master He looks old, hahaha."
Qin Huairu is a few years older than Sha Zhu, but you can’t tell from their faces. The couple were laughing together.
The next day, Qin Huairu rushed to the factory and sued Xu Damao together with Liu Haizhong. They also said that Deputy Chief Xie of the Training Department was a witness.
The Security Department was worried that there were only good things happening recently and they couldn't find any negative examples. When they heard about this, they immediately brought Xu Damao over.
If a unit is always in glory, it is not necessarily a good thing. It is like a team that has been winning streak and is under great psychological pressure. It still needs some negative examples that are not too painful to relax.
Of course, it is rare to see some teams losing in a row without any sense of shame.
The case of Xu Damao is just right. It can serve as a negative example and have educational significance. If handled properly, it can turn a bad thing into a good thing and strengthen the cohesion and sense of identity of the worker comrades.
Except Xu Damao, everyone has a bright future.
Qin Huairu was off duty and went to the factory just to handle this matter. After finishing the work, she returned to the yard and met Sha Zhu in the central yard.
When Sha Zhu saw Qin Huairu coming back, he greeted her cheerfully, "Sister Qin, how's the matter going?"
Qin Huairu smiled and said, "That's good. You'll see it when you go to work tomorrow."
Sha Zhu was so happy that his mouth was grinning from ear to ear: "Haha, okay, I'll have to watch it tomorrow."
Qin Huairu looked around and saw that there was no one around. She walked over to Sha Zhu and said with a smile, "Sha Zhu, what you said last night, was it true or false?"
In Sha Zhu's eyes, the smile on her face was too lethal.
"What? I didn't say anything last night."
Looking at Qin Huairu approaching, Sha Zhu's face turned red and he stepped back unconsciously.
"You said, 'Even if Sister Qin and I have that intention,' do you think you are interested or not?" Staring at Sha Zhu, Qin Huairu smiled and said softly.
Sha Zhu only felt that Qin Huairu's breath was blowing on the roots of his ears, making him itchy, and a stream of blood seemed to rush to his head.
"No...yes...no..." There was a pillar behind Sha Zhu, and he had nowhere to retreat. His eyes were panicked and he dared not look directly at Qin Huairu, and he couldn't even speak clearly.
Seeing his ugly face, Qin Huairu took a step back and said, "I won't tease you anymore. Thank you for last night. If you hadn't caught Xu Damao with your words, I wouldn't be able to do anything to him except scold him a few times."
Sha Zhu quickly clarified: "That, Zhendong taught me, I can't think of that at the moment."
Qin Huairu laughed: "But you were the one who said it in the end, right? Chief Engineer Gao helped you, and you helped me. Who should I thank if not you?"
"Oh, you're welcome. You're welcome."
"You, haha. I'll fry you a plate of peanuts to go with your wine later as a thank you. Don't be disgusted." Qin Huairu glanced at Sha Zhu with the side of her eyes, then turned around and went back into her house.
