Chapter 47 What does age have to do with doing wrong things?
"Uncle, don't listen to my mother's nonsense."
At this time, Qin Huairu walked in and said, "I just came back from there. Aunt Zhao (the mother of the aid to Korea) said that it seemed that they were catching enemy spies in Xishan, but they didn't mention Jiang Bo."
At this point, she finally understood why Jia Dongxu asked her to keep an eye on Jia Zhang before he left.
When she came back, she saw a group of people gathered around Jiang Bo's house.
When she saw Jia Zhang sitting on the ground, she realized that her mother-in-law was not only concerned about the other person's house, but also about the things in the house.
I heard Jia Zhang shouting again that Jiang Bo was an enemy spy.
Qin Huairu felt that if Jia Zhang continued to make trouble, the matter would never be resolved.
After Qin Huairu said this, everyone in the yard knew about it.
Originally, I heard Jia Zhang's decisive words and thought she knew some inside story.
It turns out that this was all imagined by that old woman Jia Zhang.
It's really unpredictable.
"They are catching enemy spies in Xishan. He hasn't come back for two nights. Doesn't that mean they are catching him?" Jia Zhang was still being stubborn.
"Otherwise, ask him where he has been these past two days!"
Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and asked:
"Jiang Bo, then tell us where you have been these past two days?"
After Yi Zhonghai said this, the people in the yard also felt that what he said was a bit biased.
After all, Qin Huairu's words were very clear: it was Jia Zhang who was just imagining and talking nonsense.
However, as the manager of the courtyard, it is reasonable to ask.
But Jiang Bo didn't buy it.
"No comment."
"Look, look!"
Jia Zhang suddenly became excited, "I told you he has a problem!"
"If you think there's something wrong with me, you can call the police."
Jiang Bo said calmly, "Whether I have any problems or not, the police will naturally make the decision."
"Jiang Bo, what's your attitude?"
Yi Zhonghai frowned and said:
"Besides, if we can solve the problem in the yard, we shouldn't bother the police station. Otherwise, what would the neighborhood committee do with us, the old men in charge?"
Jiang Bo sneered and thought:
Having people like you who don't do anything about human affairs is unnecessary.
He said to Yi Zhonghai:
"Solve it in the yard? That depends on how you solve it."
Then, he pointed at Jia Zhang and said:
"I'll settle the matter with you later for defaming my reputation."
"What are you doing sneaking around in my house? Tell me!"
"I..." Jia Zhang's eyes darted around for a while and said, "I suspect you are a spy. I'm looking for evidence!"
"Looking for evidence?" Jiang Bo sneered and said, "What evidence? Is that all?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the potatoes and sweet potatoes scattered on the ground, as well as a bag of corn flour next to Jia Zhang.
Everyone understood it as soon as they saw it.
The crowd burst into laughter.
"Jiang Bo and I just came in together." Xu Damao said, "Guess what! I saw a wicker basket under the window from a distance, and when I got closer, wow!"
"What the hell is trying to take food out of Jiang Bo's cupboard?"
"I was wondering where such a big rat came from! When I went in, I found out that it was the old lady of the Jia family!"
Xu Damao was an eloquent speaker and he spoke vividly.
The onlookers burst into laughter.
"Xu Damao, you fart!"
Jia Zhang was so angry that she rolled her eyes, "You are the rat!"
"OK OK."
Yi Zhonghai had a headache.
Judging from Jiang Bo's expression, he won't give up.
Xu Damao sang along with the others, and the people watching in the yard burst into laughter.
It would be even more difficult for him to favor the Jia family.
When he saw the blood on Jia Zhang's hand, his eyes turned and he said:
"Everyone stop laughing and listen to me."
"this--"
"No matter what your purpose is, Dongxu's mother, you went to Jiang Bo's house without his permission. This is definitely wrong."
"but."
"Jiang Bo, you also bear a great responsibility in this matter!"
Jiang Bo looked at him with a smile.
No surprise at all.
All the high-sounding work in the beginning is just to pave the way for the “but” in the end.
He wanted to hear how the old man Yi Zhonghai would favor the Jia family.
"First of all, you haven't been back to the hospital for three days and two nights. Your behavior is very suspicious."
"As an elder in our courtyard, it's normal for Dongxu's mother to have an idea about you."
"Secondly, Dongxu's mother also fell and was injured in your house. Do you think you are responsible?"
Even Jiang Bo had to admit that Yi Zhonghai was indeed good at setting the pace.
As soon as he said this, many of the onlookers nodded secretly.
"I cannot agree with what you said!"
Jiang Bo raised his voice.
In order to fight a war of public opinion, he must make his point clear.
"First of all, if my neighbor hasn't come home for two nights, I would worry about his personal safety first, rather than suspecting that he has done something bad."
"Everyone, imagine that one day, I mean just once, you encounter something outside and cannot come back at night."
"You want your neighbors to worry about their safety?"
"Or do you hope that your neighbor will steal things from your house because of some unrealistic fantasy?"
When he said this, the crowd immediately started to talk in a low voice.
People nodded.
Jiang Bo looked at the crowd's reaction and was very satisfied.
Then he said.
"Secondly, about Mrs. Jia falling down in my house."
"Xu Damao is my witness. I didn't touch her at all."
"She fell because she was guilty."
"Everyone, imagine this again. If your house was robbed and the thief fell down in your house, he would say it was your fault. Is this reasonable or not?"
As soon as he said this, someone in the crowd immediately responded loudly:
"unreasonable!"
Others also whispered:
"Yeah, that doesn't make sense."
"Yes, why? I'm already unlucky enough."
Jiang Bo's words made it easy for people to put themselves in his shoes.
No one wants to be held responsible when they are not at fault.
"Bozi, do you have to say such harsh words?"
Qin Huairu walked over and helped Jia Zhang up.
After all, they are a family. Jia Zhang was being criticized, and as a member of the Jia family, Qin Huairu felt embarrassed.
"Whether I say it or not, the facts are out there for everyone to see."
Jiang Bo is not a fool. Qin Huairu will become confused after wiping away two tears.
"You must compensate me for the damaged items."
"That's it."
Yi Zhonghai rubbed his chin with his hand and said:
"Don't bother talking about compensation to each other. Dongxu's mother was also injured. The things you broke will be used to offset the medical expenses."
"no!"
At this point, Jiang Bo saw that Yi Zhonghai was still trying to play sides and muddy the waters, so he said firmly:
"No matter what the reason is, breaking into a house through a window is stealing."
"If that's how you solve the problem, then let's not talk about it anymore and just call the police."
"Let the police decide what to say."
The onlookers looked at each other.
The scene was very quiet for a while.
Everyone thinks that Jiang Bo is really stubborn.
How dare you challenge the manager like this?
No matter what Yi Zhonghai said, he would not give in.
If it were someone else in the yard, they would have to give Yi Zhonghai some face.
Most of them think they are unlucky.
Yi Zhonghai frowned and said:
"Then how do you want to solve it?"
"First, Mrs. Jia openly spread rumors in the courtyard, saying that I was a spy. She must apologize to me in front of everyone."
"Second, the Jia family must compensate me for the things that were broken in my house."
"You're going too far."
"Dongxu's mother is already so old, you are a younger generation, you should be more tolerant and forgiving..."
Jiang Bo waved his hand and interrupted Yi Zhonghai.
"What does age have to do with doing something wrong?"
"If that's what you said, Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan were not young when they were arrested..."
