Siheyuan: Forced to exchange rooms with Qin Huairu at the beginning

"There are two bicycles here. You only produced one certificate. Can't you say that these bicycles are not obtained legitimately?"

Liu Haizhong sneered, as if he had caught Zhang Zhiqiang with something.

"My wife's bicycle was bought by her family before she got married, so the proof should be at Ran's house."

Zhang Zhiqiang explained.

"Yes, Aunt Zhou, my certificate is in my house. I bought this car a long time ago."

Ran Qiuye nodded in agreement.

In fact, no matter what, you can't produce proof now. If the street office confiscates your bicycle, you can't say anything. You can only take the proof to get your bicycle back.

But who is Director Zhou? He is one of us, so he would definitely not do something that would embarrass others.

"Okay, I got it, Xia Yu, write it down, and then we'll go look for it at Ran's house."

Director Zhou concluded the matter with just one sentence. As for whether he would really go to the Ran family, the answer was definitely no. Who would want to cause trouble for themselves for no reason?

"By the way, Director Zhou, I also bought a sewing machine for my father-in-law and mother-in-law's home. This is the certificate from the supply and marketing cooperative."

Zhang Zhiqiang handed the certificate to Director Zhou.

"What? You also bought a sewing machine?"

Liu Haizhong was surprised and his face became even uglier. Zhang Zhiqiang now has two bicycles at home, and he also bought a sewing machine, which contains all the things in the three-turn and one-ring machine.

It has only been a short time, and Zhang Zhiqiang has caused such a big commotion? He has suddenly become the most prosperous family in the Red Star Courtyard.

"What? Do I need to inform your uncle before I buy a sewing machine?"

Zhang Zhiqiang said coldly.

Although Liu Haizhong didn't say anything, he felt that Zhang Zhiqiang was doomed as he didn't even know to buy a sewing machine for his family.

You have to know that in the entire Hongxing Siheyuan, only the Jia family has a sewing machine. If Zhang Zhiqiang buys it, it will be the second sewing machine in the courtyard. What a proud thing it would be. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhiqiang didn't want it and even bought a sewing machine for his father-in-law and mother-in-law. He really has nothing better to do.

"Director Zhou, the food in Zhang Zhiqiang's house is definitely not of legitimate origin. You don't know that they eat meat every day, just like during the Chinese New Year."

"Tell me, these days, which family can afford to eat meat every day? In my opinion, Zhang Zhiqiang needs to be investigated strictly."

Liu Haizhong then started to investigate Zhang Zhiqiang's food and drink, trying to find evidence that Zhang Zhiqiang's things were not obtained in a legitimate way.

When Liu Haizhong said this, the clerk who came with Director Zhou also changed his expression. Eating meat every day, what kind of life is this? Isn't this the life of a god?

"That's pure nonsense, Uncle. Do you have any evidence? Who can afford to eat meat every day? Go to my kitchen and take a look. At most I have some noodles."

Zhang Zhiqiang definitely cannot admit this. Everyone is jealous. Why can you eat so well every day?

"Everyone in the yard can testify that every afternoon there is a nice smell wafting out of your house, which makes everyone greedy."

Liu Haizhong didn't lie. Zhang Zhiqiang was so annoying. He made delicious food every day but didn't even bring some to himself, his uncle.

Every time I smell the delicious food from Zhang Zhiqiang’s house, fried eggs don’t taste good when I get home.

"As everyone knows, I am fond of cooking, and I used to cook for entertaining guests in the factory, so my cooking skills must be pretty good. It's only natural that my food smells good, right?"

Zhang Zhiqiang tried to make amends by saying that this kind of thing is tacitly understood and cannot be acknowledged.

"Director Zhou, he is just making excuses. Many people in the hospital can testify. We need to investigate this thoroughly."

Liu Haizhong emphasized again, with a sense of fierceness but weakness.

"Okay, we're here to check whether the food comes from a legitimate source. It has nothing to do with what you eat."

As Director Zhou finished speaking, the salesmen who followed him were also stunned. Oh my god, they almost went off topic.

Seeing that he couldn't defeat Zhang Zhiqiang in this way, Liu Haizhong used his last resort.

"Zhang Zhiqiang, let's put aside other things, where did you get these bricks on the floor?"

"The whole country is engaged in construction now, and bricks are in short supply. Can you still say that your bricks came from a legitimate source?"

Liu Haizhong said righteously that this was the reason he dared to report it. He knew something was wrong after just a little thought.

Nowadays, bricks are all controlled by the state. It is not enough to have unified allocation. How can it be possible for people to buy them so easily?

After saying this, Director Zhou's face changed and he was worried about Zhang Zhiqiang because what Liu Haizhong said was true.

"I can explain all of this."

"You can observe that these bricks are all old bricks. They belong to Mr. Wang from the yard next door. They have been there for decades."

"It can definitely withstand investigation. If necessary, I can ask him to write a certificate tomorrow."

Zhang Zhiqiang was wondering what the matter was. If it was just this brick incident, it would be too clear from beginning to end, and he would know the truth of the matter once he checked it.

"No, this is definitely not true, Director Zhou, we need to check this."

Liu Haizhong was so crazy that he could only place his last hope on Director Zhou.

"Don't worry, we will definitely check it out. It's getting late today, and we should be off work. From what we can see so far, all the things in Zhang Zhiqiang's house are legitimate. We will find evidence for the rest."

Director Zhou explained that after all, it was Liu Haizhong who reported it, so he should have the right to know.

"Auntie Zhou, come and have dinner before leaving."

Zhang Zhiqiang saw Director Zhou was about to leave and tried to persuade him to stay.

"No, it's getting late, and I have to go back and cook for your uncle."

Aunt Zhou shook her head and refused, gave Zhang Zhiqiang a look, and glanced at Liu Haizhong.

"Okay, Aunt Zhou, please drive slowly."

Zhang Zhiqiang understood, because Aunt Zhou had just told him that it was Liu Haizhong who reported it.

In fact, as a public official, of course you cannot say who the whistleblower is, otherwise no one would dare to report it.

But Zhang Zhiqiang is a family member, and Aunt Zhou didn’t say it explicitly. It’s okay if you can understand it, and it’s okay if you don’t.

Liu Haizhong went home dejectedly. He felt really embarrassed today.

When I got back, I saw Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu each holding a steamed bun in their hands, eating it with pickled vegetables, taking a bite of the bun and another bite of the vegetable, enjoying it very much.

Liu Haizhong's temper flared up instantly. I was out there fighting wits and courage with others, but you two guys were eating at home.

"Dad, are you back?"

"Dad, you're back now, let's eat quickly. We can't wait for you to eat first."

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were frightened when they saw Liu Haizhong coming back.

He stood up and looked at Liu Haizhong flatteringly.

Liu Haizhong said nothing, slammed the door, and pulled out the belt around his waist. Although his pants were not elastic, Liu Haizhong had a big belly, which could hold up his pants and prevent them from falling down.

"You two little bastards, all you know is eating. I'll beat you to death."

"Ah? Dad, I don't want to eat anymore. I really don't want to eat anymore."

"Help, brother, run."

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu didn't dare to take the belt coming from Liu Haizhong head-on and could only dodge everywhere. However, the house was too small and they couldn't avoid it completely.

Moreover, when Liu Haizhong saw that his two sons dared to hide, he got angry and chased them and whipped them with his belt.
