Chapter 224 Wang Xiaohu Takes Action
Chapter 224 Wang Xiaohu Takes Action
Old Man Qi ran out in a panic, not daring to say a word. His two sons were workers in a steel rolling mill, and they were even more afraid of offending Wang Xiaohu.
"Go to hell."
Guan Liren was kicked aside and Old Lady Ma hurried over to check his injuries. Everyone else was silent, even Huang Cuiju and her daughter Guan Xiaomin were stunned with fear.
No one dares to beat someone like this in broad daylight.
"What are you looking at? Did I hit anyone? He fell down by himself." Wang Xiaohu breathed out through his nostrils, took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Yes, yes, Guan Liren fell on his own."
"He just walked carelessly. I saw it with my own eyes."
"I testify~"
The so-called fence-sitter, who changes with the wind, is speechless at this moment. Zhang Sanfeng came over and said helplessly: "Xiaohu, please don't be impulsive in the future. It makes it difficult for me to do what I want."
Zhang Sanfeng said he was very tired as he had to clean up his brother-in-law's mess again.
"I didn't hit a human, I hit an animal."
"Okay, whatever you say is what I mean." Zhang Sanfeng knew that it was useless to persuade her, so he came to Huang Cuiju and asked softly, "You can tell me what you want now, so that I can discuss it with the comrades from the Street Office and the Women's Federation later."
"I... I just want to live alone with my daughter. I won't take advantage of them and they shouldn't bother me." Huang Cuiju is a typical traditional woman. She was frightened just now and couldn't think of a better request for a moment.
"That means we want to split up the family, right? That's no problem."
Huang Cuiju seemed to want to say something but stopped talking in the end. She was indeed an honest person. No wonder she was bullied so badly.
A quarter of an hour later, Director Wang and comrades from the Women's Federation came over.
"The matter is very clear. I'm here on behalf of the neighborhood office to help you with the division." Director Wang came in, greeted Wang Xiaohu and the others, and then immediately announced.
"Director Wang, I'm the boss of this hospital and can help." Uncle Qi wanted to get involved to see if the situation could be saved.
"By the way, first remove Qi Min's status as the master of the courtyard house, and then elect a new master." Director Wang glared at old man Qi, and his meaning was very clear: just stay there and don't talk nonsense.
Old man Qi became dejected in an instant, as if he had lost all his energy. Seeing this, other people in the courtyard began to applaud, obviously supporting this approach.
When Old Lady Ma saw that Old Man Qi was removed, she became like a quail and dared not speak a word.
"Huang Cuiju, come here and tell us everything that happened over the years from beginning to end." Two people from the Women's Federation came. Wang Xiaohu didn't know any of them, but they were very professional.
……
"Old Mrs. Ma, it's a new era now. Women's wishes cannot be violated. And just because she marries your son doesn't make her a member of your family. People can come and go freely, do you understand?" The comrades from the Women's Federation began to do ideological work on the old woman.
Director Wang was criticizing Guan Liren, who actually disagreed with the division of the family.
Wang Xiaohu just shook his head when he saw it, wondering why there was no strength at all.
"I know I was wrong. Can you please not divide the family? As the old saying goes, the family should not be divided while the parents are still alive. If we do, I will lose all my face." Old Mrs. Ma began to act pitiful. This skill was much better than that of Mrs. Jia Zhang.
Director Wang: ...
I shouldn't be a villain, right?
……
"It's a new era now. The idea of not dividing the family property while the parents are still alive is just the remnants of feudal thinking. Old Mrs. Ma, your attitude is not right and there is a problem. Also, it is a personal freedom for a widow to remarry. No one can stop it, including you as the mother-in-law." Zhang Sanfeng's words were very powerful. If things went further, he might even parade her through the streets for criticism.
Old Mrs. Ma was also a smart person. She let go of Director Wang's thigh with a tremble of her hand, feeling a little at a loss.
"Deputy Director Zhang is right. In the new era, women can hold up half the sky. It is wrong to force others to marry. It is illegal to send your granddaughter to someone else's family as a child bride. It must be dealt with seriously!" People from the Women's Federation also spoke out, with reasons and evidence that made it impossible to refute.
Seeing that Old Lady Ma kept her head down and said nothing, Guan Liren had no reason to refuse the division of the family property.
But Wang Xiaohu was unwilling to do so. It turned out that they were all trying to smooth things over.
"uh-huh."
The coughing made everyone stop and look at Wang Xiaohu. They almost forgot that there was such an evil star here.
"The family must be divided. Huang Cuiju's job should be returned to her, and the pension should be returned to Huang Cuiju and her daughter. We can't just ignore the bullying of martyrs' families. All those involved should be sent to labor reform!" After Wang Xiaohu finished speaking, everyone was so scared that they couldn't open their mouths. But it wasn't over yet.
"It is hard to imagine such a vile act of sucking the marrow out of people in the new era. This is a typical patriarchal style. We must hold a struggle session to criticize this matter seriously. Otherwise, how can we face the martyrs who shed blood and sacrificed their lives? We must never let the martyrs bleed and cry, or we will be unworthy of these clothes!"
After saying that, Wang Xiaohu looked at Director Wang and the others and continued, "What do you think?"
"I agree!" Zhang Sanfeng was the first to respond. I was originally just thinking about helping Huang Cuiju divide the family property, and didn't think too much about it. Since my brother-in-law wants to be more ruthless, it doesn't matter.
Upon hearing this, Director Wang and the comrades from the Women's Federation hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. Although they felt that this was a bit harsh, they did not want to offend Wang Xiaohu. After all, it was just a favor and it was not them who were to go to Qinghe Farm for reform.
"I am also a martyr's relative. I am Guan Ligong's mother. I also have a share of the pension. You can't treat me like this." Old Mrs. Ma was really panicked this time. She didn't expect it to be so serious.
She forced Huang Cuiju and her daughter to get married. She just wanted to make some money for her younger son Guan Liming to buy a house, a job and a wife. How did it end up turning into labor reform?
"I almost forgot. Half of it should be left for you. But you still have to go to labor reform. Of course, you don't have to go. Then let your eldest son do two more years of labor reform. Your son is so filial, he will definitely agree, right?" Wang Xiaohu looked at Guan Liren, the electrician, with a playful look on his face. He actually misjudged this guy who looked like a decent human being.
