Back to 1984: Let's Work Hard Together to Raise The Kids! Chapter 41: The Police Arrive
Even a fool can see the extensive involvent here, and it’s best to communicate with the higher leadership. It’s most appropriate for the school to take charge.
The principal nodded heavily, gritting his teeth, "Education is for cultivating talent for the country, emphasizing fairness and justice, and it must never beco a hotbed for corruption! Call the police! Our school will report this! Director Zhao, you handle this matter, and all subsequent coordination with the public security organs will be your responsibility. If any docuntation needs to be submitted from the school, co to .
Additionally, regarding the arrangents for the real Fang Yin, her performance during this period has been evident to . Fortunately, only two years were delayed without causing a major error. She can stay in school and continue her studies. Arrange for a teacher from the teaching departnt to supplent the courses she missed. Let it be so!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Gaojie was in a great mood, and as soon as he left the principal’s office, he went to find Fang Yin to tell her the good news.
Although Fang Yin had long guessed the outco, when the truth was unveiled, she couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Zhao Gaojie comforted her, saying, "Now it’s just setting things right. You can move into your rightful dormitory. Of course, if you find it inconvenient, you can continue staying here. Currently, the school’s dormitories are quite adequate."
Fang Yin thought for a mont and said, "Director Zhao, I’d rather continue staying here; otherwise, they would have to readjust, and it’s quite botherso."
She had missed two years of coursework, and catching up wouldn’t be easy. She might have to study late into the night, which could disrupt others’ routines, leading to conflicts.
"Then we’ll do as you say."
Fang Yin’s situation settled down.
On the other hand, Fangshan Village was in an uproar.
Chen Wenjun and Lin Qin had just pushed their cart into the village to sell fish when they saw a group of elderly won outside the small shop at the village entrance, whispering about sothing involving the police.
The two were startled and quickly approached, "Granny, want to buy so fish?"
Granny Huang turned around and quickly put on her shoes, "Do you have carp?"
Lin Qin nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes, yes, today we have all carps, and two are quite large at seven or eight ounces. Take a look."
Granny Huang imdiately grabbed the bucket, "I’ll take all of them, and at the usual price, huh!"
Lin Qin smiled wryly, "You’re a regular custor, just for you, at this price!"
Granny Huang cheerfully carried the bucket ho.
Lin Qin and Chen Wenjun quickly followed.
Without Lin Qin asking, Granny Huang, with her big mouth, had already told them everything, "Just now, two police officers ca to the village and went to the village chief’s house, asking about ixiang. I don’t know what happened."
As she spoke, Granny Huang picked up speed, evidently wanting to catch so excitent by passing by the village chief’s house.
Lin Qin and Chen Wenjun had the sa idea, and quietly followed behind.
At this mont, many villagers had already gathered outside Village Chief Fang Aiguo’s house.
Fang Aiguo wore a miserable expression as he explained to the two police officers, "Our ixiang got married and hasn’t been back for a long ti!"
"Fang Aiguo, you’d better be truthful and cooperate with the police investigation. If you dare to lie, you will be held accountable!" The police officer sternly stared at Fang Aiguo.
Fang Aiguo was eager to prove his sincerity, "Officer, everything I said is true. She really got married and t her partner in the provincial capital. We’ve never visited her in-laws, so we truly don’t know where they are!"
The two police officers asked other villagers and found that Fang ixiang indeed hadn’t returned for two years, which prompted them to leave.
As soon as the police officers left, the villagers imdiately questioned Fang Aiguo.
"What trouble did ixiang get into? Why are the police looking for her?"
"How would I know? Go away! It’s none of your business!" Fang Aiguo, his face darkening, harshly dismissed the curious villagers and shut the door.
Fang ixiang’s mother, Liu Fang, was extrely anxious, "How could this happen? Have they already discovered the fact that ixiang impersonated soone to attend university?"
"How would I know?" Fang Aiguo was in a panic, "No! We can’t just sit here waiting for doom. Tonight I’ll pack my things and go to my daughter’s place; otherwise, if the matter blows up, I’ll get arrested!"
Liu Fang was petrified, gripping Fang Aiguo’s hand tightly, "No! What about our son and if you go? Will you leave us orphans and widows?"
Fang Aiguo was furious, "Are you stupid? Am I the village chief or are you the village chief! When the police ask, just say you know nothing. What can they do to you? I’m the village chief, can I hide? Do you want in jail to make you happy?"
Liu Fang released her grip, and Fang Aiguo hurried into the house to pack his luggage, taking all the valuables.
Liu Fang could only watch, crying softly.
Chen Wenjun and Lin Qin delivered the fish to Granny Huang’s house, settled the paynt, and left Fangshan Village.
As they walked out of the village, they vaguely saw suspicious figures by the roadside, resembling plainclothes police officers.
The couple pretended not to notice and quickly pushed the cart away.
When they reached their fishing boat.
Their hearts were still racing.
Lin Qin took deep breaths, "Oh my! Fangshan Village must be cursed for us, two visits both so thrilling, my heart can hardly take it!"
"Indeed! I guess the matter with Fang Yin has been resolved. Should we set up a stall on Liu family’s vegetable market street tomorrow morning and inquire about the prices of cent and sand bricks?"
"I think that’s a good plan!"
Lin Qin felt a faint excitent.
Nearby, Lin Yi, who finally understood what had happened, reminded them, "If you’re just watching the excitent, wear your hats so the Liu family’s ruthless people don’t recognize you and cause more trouble."
Since he was mysteriously attacked and seriously injured, he had developed a shadow in his heart, worrying that his daughter and son-in-law might encounter trouble again.
Chen Wenjun quickly assured him, "Dad! Don’t worry, I’ll be careful. Ah Qin has changed so much now, the Liu family might not recognize her."
Lin Yi glanced at Lin Qin and quite agreed with Chen Wenjun.
During this ti, Lin Qin ate well, her face had filled out, and her long hair, cut short, looked neat, and her old tattered clothes had been changed, presenting a drastically different spirit.
Going out, she was indeed unlikely to be connected with the old ek daughter-in-law.
The family had lunch. Chen Wenjun imdiately rowed the boat to the Nanyu opening.
During this period of clearing and reclaiming.
The wasteland now had a rectangular pit of over two hundred square ters, with a depth of about thirty centiters.
According to Chen Wenjun’s plan, the next step was to go up the mountain to pick stones, buy cent and sand to raise the foundation.
At this ti, a ton of cent was not cheap, building a hundred square ters house required around thirty to fifty tons of cent. They had dug over two hundred square ters, needing at least several thousand, while they currently only had over a thousand, a drop in the bucket.
But Chen Wenjun would rather build slowly and insist on constructing a cent brick house, and Lin Qin had to go along with his wishes.
After all, the land was there, the money was being saved, and sooner or later they would live in their dream house.
That afternoon, Chen Wenjun was on the mountain collecting stones, throwing suitable ones down the mountainside.
When sufficient stones were gathered, he would go down the mountain, organize them, and use the cart to transport all stones to the edge of the foundation.
The couple worked until dusk before boarding the boat.
