Chapter 41 Looking for help
"Okay, then I'll take a bus over and come to see you early tomorrow morning." Jiang Meizhi's mind was full of longing for a happy life in the future, and her face was filled with joy.
Aunt Jiang was equally delighted, "Daguo, you finally act like a brother this time!"
Jiang Xiaoxiao on the side snorted coldly.
Does being a brother mean that I should subsidize my married sister-in-law without any bottom line?
Jiang Daguo said, "I won't take the bus. I'll go by bike and leave at four o'clock tomorrow morning. Meizhi, you take the bus and wait for me at the station."
Jiang Meizhi stood up and said, "Okay, that's settled."
After the discussion, Jiang Meizhi turned around and went home.
Jiang Daguo was also preparing to continue his work, when Liu Xihua calmly tugged at his sleeve and gave him a look.
Jiang Daguo understood what he meant and walked into the bedroom without saying a word.
"Xiaoxiao is sleepy. It's time for a nap." Liu Xihua took Jiang Xiaoxiao from Jiang Meilan's arms and followed her into the room.
Liu Xihua placed Jiang Xiaoxiao on the small bed, closed the door, turned around and asked Jiang Daguo impatiently.
"Daguo, you know that Meizhi is always generous. This time it's definitely not just a few hundred yuan. It's probably thousands! But where can we get so much money? How can you agree so easily?"
Jiang Daguo glanced in the direction of the outer room and said in a low voice: "How could I really intend to lend her money? I can't afford that much money."
"Then how did you arrange it?" Liu Xihua asked in confusion, blinking.
"I pretended to agree to lend the money and said I wanted to meet Wu Deyuan. When he showed up, I immediately called the police to arrest him." Jiang Daguo's face was grim. "Meizhi can't continue to be so stubborn. Not only will she hurt herself, but she may also implicate our entire family."
Thinking of his elder sister's unreliable behavior, Jiang Daguo sighed in his heart.
At this time, Liu Xihua thought of Jiang Xiaoxiao's previous warning and felt very troubled by Jiang Meizhi's actions.
Seeing that Jiang Daguo had made arrangements, she was relieved, but she still reminded him, "You must be more careful. Wu Deyuan must be a cunning man to cheat."
[Mom, don’t be afraid. You can ask Uncle Hu Qingsong for help]
[Hu Qingsong's brother-in-law, the one who drove us back, is a correspondent for the newspaper. When he heard about the news case, he would definitely like to come and interview.]
Liu Xihua blinked and said, "Yes, they have acquaintances in the city!"
She said, "Daguo, how about asking Deputy Director Hu for help in this matter? He has a lot of acquaintances. Oh, and his brother-in-law is also a powerful person. He seems to work in a newspaper. People in their newspapers all like this kind of news about catching bad guys, right?"
Jiang Daguo nodded and said, "Well, after I deliver the food, I'll go ask Deputy Director Hu."
-
In the afternoon, after Jiang Daguo finished his work in his own fields, he prepared some vegetables and brought them back.
When he had some time, he went fishing for two fish.
Two fish were not enough, so I had to buy three fish from someone who had a fish pond.
The fish in the village are cheap, but there will be a price difference when they are sent to the city.
Jiang Daguo has already arranged this very skillfully.
.
The next morning, Jiang Daguo got up an hour earlier than usual because he didn't plan to take the bus and instead planned to ride a bike to City A. He was worried that he would be late, so he got up at four o'clock.
The bucket filled with fish was fixed on one side of the frame, and the other side was placed on a basket filled with vegetables of similar weight. The rest was placed on the surface of the frame.
It was not yet dark, and Jiang Daguo fixed a flashlight on the handlebars of his bicycle for illumination.
Following Liu Xihua's instructions, Jiang Daguo rode his bike to City A.
It takes half an hour to walk from Jiang's house to the road where the bus is waiting.
It takes another ten minutes to get from the bus station to the bus station in City A, plus the waiting time. Adding the time spent on the bus, it will take about two hours in total.
Jiang Daguo rode his bike non-stop and it took him the same amount of time.
When he arrived at the guard room of the Civil Affairs Bureau, he glanced at the window and found that the time was the same as when he came back last time.
Jiang Daguo saved the employees of the bicycle factory and was praised in the newspaper. The security guard was a person who read the newspaper every day, so when he saw Jiang Daguo coming, he smiled and cleaned the floor.
"That's great, Jiang Daguo. It's on the newspaper." The security guard said with a smile, shaking last week's newspaper.
Jiang Daguo smiled naively, "I was passing by there, and when I saw the fire, I just opened the door. If others saw it, they would do the same. It's not worth it."
"That's not necessarily true. I, an old man, would be so scared that my legs would go weak and I wouldn't dare to go forward and open the door." The security guard laughed at himself.
Jiang Daguo smiled naively, pushed the cart and went to the cafeteria.
After delivering the vegetables, getting the delivery note and the names of the vegetables to be delivered tomorrow, Jiang Daguo parked his car in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau and went to Hu Qingsong's office to find him.
Hu Qingsong had just arrived at work and was looking at today's schedule. When he saw Jiang Daguo coming, he greeted him enthusiastically.
They also praised him for his bravery in saving people.
Jiang Daguo smiled sheepishly, "If you praise me again, I will be embarrassed to come here."
Hu Qingsong didn't say anything else and just asked him if he came here to help with anything.
Jiang Daguo told Hu Qingsong the purpose of his visit.
Hu Qingsong frowned, "After hearing what you said the other day, I guessed he was a liar. Okay, I'll call the police for you. But I don't have time to go, I'll find someone to go with you."
He asked Jiang Daguo to sit down and have a rest, picked up the office phone and dialed a number, and the call was connected.
"Xingyang, there's work, come to me right away."
"My brother-in-law, the one who drove you back that day." Hu Qingsong said with a smile.
Jiang Daguo thought about his daughter's thoughts and thought that his daughter was really amazing. She could have predicted this.
As expected, Hu Qingsong asked his brother-in-law who worked at a newspaper for help.
After waiting for half an hour, Chen Xingyang arrived.
After seeing Jiang Daguo and understanding the situation, he, who is always talkative and cheerful, rubbed his palms excitedly and said, "Let's go, let's set off now."
The two greeted Hu Qingsong and went to the station to find Jiang Meizhi.
Jiang Meizhi just got off the car and saw Jiang Daguo and a strange young man walking towards her. She raised her eyebrows in confusion and said, "Brother, this is..."
"Ah, a friend of mine, I want to ask him for a favor. By the way, Meizhi, my friend wants to ask your friend Wu Deyuan for a favor, do you think... can we meet him together?" Jiang Daguo glanced at Chen Xingyang and asked Jiang Meizhi.
This topic was taught by Chen Xingyang to Jiang Daguo.
Hearing that the scammer was going to be caught, Chen Xingyang gave Jiang Daguo an idea and suggested that he say this.
A whole city of people came to ask for help. Jiang Meizhi raised her eyebrows proudly and said, "Great."
