Courtyard House: My Wife is Xu Huizhen

Page 376

Then the three of them started chatting and learned that Sun Tie had gone to study and was not at the police station at the moment.

Yi Wensheng was dumbfounded as he watched the three of them talking so familiarly. How could they be so familiar with each other?

"You two knew each other before?"

Guan Gong'an said, "Everyone in the police station knows Comrade He Yuzhu. But don't worry, we will investigate your report fairly and impartially."

Yi Wensheng felt somewhat helpless. No wonder his father and Jia Dongxu both said that going to the police would be of no use in getting He Yuzhu involved in the assault.

I didn't believe it before, but now I do.

After the two police officers came in, many people saw them and gathered around. Yan Bugui asked, "Did Old Zhao really report the case?"

"Yes, we came here to deal with the matter of He Yuzhu hitting Yi Wensheng's mother."

Old Zhao's words made everyone's expressions turn strange. This Yi Wensheng really had the nerve to report it to the police. He was the one who threw the brick at He Yuzhu, yet he still had the nerve to report it.

The white widow came out of the house and exclaimed, "It was He Yuzhu who smashed this. Look at all the bandages wrapped around my head."

Because the wound was on the forehead, not only was it wrapped around the forehead, but some hair was also cut off and wrapped around the head from top to bottom; even with such a bandage, you could still see a considerable amount of blood seeping out.

Guan Gong'an asked, "Comrade He Yuzhu, tell me what happened."

He Yuzhu said, "It's very simple. Last night..."

He Yuzhu didn't embellish the story; he simply recounted the events as they happened, emphasizing that Yi Wensheng had thrown the brick at him, and that he had only instinctively kicked it away, only to accidentally hit Widow Bai.

The two police officers also looked strange upon hearing this.

It's strange, it happens every year, but this year there seem to be more than usual.

Is Yi Wensheng stupid? He threw a brick at someone, and the other person just kicked it away. I've only ever heard of being able to control the angle when throwing a brick, but I've never heard of being able to accurately choose the target when kicking a brick in such a chaotic situation.

It's obvious that hitting the white widow was just an accident. Although He Yuzhu kicked the brick, he didn't pick it up on his own initiative.

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he turned around and asked the people around him, "Am I telling the truth without exaggeration? Everyone can be my witness."

Yan Bugui said, "Yes, that's how it is."

“That’s right, this isn’t He Yuzhu’s fault at all, it’s all this kid surnamed Yi’s fault. He’s the one who threw the brick at He Yuzhu, otherwise Zhuzi wouldn’t have kicked the brick,” said Liu Gen’s mother.

"Yes, that's how it is."

"That guy surnamed Yi is shameless. He even has the nerve to go to the police when it's clearly his fault."

The eyes of the masses are discerning, and in this matter, they all spoke up to testify on He Yuzhu's behalf, unwilling to accept his testimony.

Guan Gongan asked Yi Wensheng, "The main responsibility for this matter lies with you. If you hadn't thrown the brick, how could He Yuzhu have kicked him and hit your mother?"

"But doesn't the person surnamed He bear any responsibility at all?" Yi Wensheng asked, still somewhat unwilling to accept it.

"If you really want to hold He Yuzhu responsible, there's a little bit to it. But if that's the case, I can also hold you responsible, since you were the one who tried to hit him with a brick."

"Exactly, if we really investigate, you'll bear more responsibility, since you were the one who threw the brick at him."

"But..."

"There are no 'buts'. Think about it yourself and decide whether you want to pursue this matter. If He Yuzhu gets away with it, you'll be the one being detained," Officer Zhao said directly.

Just as the white widow was about to say something, Yi Zhonghai pulled her back, making her swallow her words.

Then he said:

"Comrade Zhao, we won't pursue this matter further, but we still hope you can handle the matter of He Daqing assaulting someone. My eldest son is still in the hospital."

Zhao Gong'an nodded. He hadn't actually come here today to deal with He Yuzhu kicking the brick, but rather because of He Daqing's matter.

Yi Wensheng said that his brother was beaten and injured and went into the operating room, which is why two people came to find He Daqing to understand the situation.

Officer Zhao said, "We will handle this matter next."

He Daqing had come out earlier, but hadn't said much. Only now, hearing that he had been mentioned, did he step forward and speak:

"Officer, I have been wronged."

Police Officer Zhao said, "We have already looked into the matter. Yi Wending was injured and hospitalized. He underwent surgery and is still in a coma. If you did it, you should confess and be treated leniently."

"It really wasn't me," He Daqing said, feeling very aggrieved.

Officer Zhao asked, "But they insist it was you who did it. You say it wasn't you. What evidence do you have?"

“Of course I have evidence. I was working overtime at the steel mill cooking when the incident happened! There are many people in the canteen who can testify for me.”

"What? You have a witness?" Yi Wensheng asked loudly.

He Daqing said, "I told you long ago that I didn't do it, but you just don't want to believe me and always try to pin the blame on me."

The matter is simple. Officer Zhao asked Yi Wensheng when the two brothers were beaten. It was confirmed to be around 9 PM the night before last.

Then I asked He Daqing who could provide the proof.

He Daqing said some things, all of them were helpers in the kitchen of the steel rolling mill.

Yi Wensheng shouted, "Those people are all He's subordinates, so their testimony doesn't count."

He Daqing said, "You little brat, stop talking nonsense. Besides the helpers, there are also the factory leaders. The day before yesterday, Deputy Factory Director Li received an inspection team. You can also ask them to see if I was still in the canteen cooking for them at 9 o'clock."

After saying this, Yi Wensheng looked ashen-faced. If someone could prove that He Daqing was not present, then wouldn't it be impossible to pin the blame on He Daqing for the beating of his two brothers?

The two police officers exchanged glances, and then Officer Zhao said:

"It's easy to verify this matter. After all, it's easy to find out whether the inspection team was there, whether Comrade He Daqing cooked for them that night, and when it ended."

"Yes, you said it was He Daqing who did it. Did you see him?" Guan Gong'an asked.

Yi Wensheng shook his head: "It was already dark when my brother and I were suddenly covered with sacks, pinned to the ground, and beaten. We didn't even see who it was."

"Then why did you say it was He Daqing who hit him?"

Yi Wensheng said, "The person who hit me said, 'Qing Dynasty, stop hitting me, or you'll kill me. Let's leave quickly.'"

Guan Gong'an asked, "Did you hear someone else speaking?"

"No, he didn't say a word from beginning to end. He just kept hitting my brother. Before leaving, he kicked him in the groin. Otherwise, my brother wouldn't have been able to go into the operating room."

Many people who heard this were stunned. Previously, Yi Wensheng had only said that his brother Yi Wending was injured and hospitalized, but he did not say what kind of injury he was injured or where he was injured.

Only then did they realize that it was the eldest son of the Yi family who had suffered a serious injury to his genitals, and he had been taken to the operating room.

Just thinking about it, many men feel a cold draft down there. If that area is injured, they don't know if they'll still be able to use it in the future.

Guan Gong'an said, "So, since you didn't see the person or hear their voice, it's impossible for you to confirm that it was He Daqing who made the call."

Yi Wensheng shouted, "He's the one who did it. There's no one else but him. He's the only one who hates us."

He Daqing shouted, "You little brat, I already said I didn't hit him. I have witnesses who can prove I wasn't there at the time."

"Hmph, who else would hit us but you? Even if you weren't there, it's possible that you hired someone to hit us."

Chapter 275 Kick Off

Previously, Yi Wensheng only said that the person was beaten by He Daqing and his men, but now he says that there are witnesses who can prove that he was not present, so he says that He Daqing ordered it.

Anyway, all the blame will be placed on He Daqing.

He Daqing was furious. He had raised these two ungrateful wretches for years for nothing.

These people are usually so arrogant, but now they seize every opportunity to smear themselves, as if they want to go to jail themselves.

“I told you I didn’t do it. If I did, may I be struck by lightning.”

He Daqing was so angry that he started cursing.

People at that time were still very superstitious. Ordinary people would not make such oaths or vows, for fear of being punished.

"Judging from He Daqing's appearance, he probably didn't do it this time."

"Yes, look how angry he is, his veins are practically popping out."

"That's right. If He Daqing wanted revenge, he would have done it long ago. He wouldn't have waited so long to beat them up."

He Daqing did want revenge before, but after getting along with Aunt Jiang, his anger subsided a lot.

He put in a lot of effort behind the scenes to get Aunt Jiang and Yi Zhonghai to divorce.

Later, I felt much better, and I often felt a sense of accomplishment from sleeping with Yi Zhonghai's wife.

Liu Gen's mother said, "Is the second son of the Yi family out of his mind? Besides He Daqing, who else could beat them?"

Upon hearing the Sixth Miss say this, Yi Wensheng immediately asked loudly, "Who are you talking about?"

Liu Gen's mother was startled, then said, "Who else could it be but the family in the backyard!"

Few people in the courtyard liked Xu Wude's family. They had also had conflicts with Liu Gen's family before, and Liu Gen's mother just casually said something.

After all, Xu Wude and Yi Zhonghai had a very unpleasant falling out before, so this time they wanted to use this as an excuse to sow discord between the two families and cause a ruckus.

Regardless of whether or not the Xu family should be dragged into this first.

Everyone was stunned. Xu Wude was the first to jump out and shout, "Six Roots, what nonsense are you spouting?"

His wife immediately started cursing, and Liu Gen's mother didn't back down either, immediately cursing back.

Police Officer Zhao shouted, "That's enough! You're still cursing in front of us? Stop cursing!"

The two women immediately fell silent, after all, the police officers had a great deterrent effect.
