Chapter 1582 You Need to Grow Up
Siheyuan.
In the morning, Yang Xiaotao stayed at home with his family, planning to go to the machinery factory after lunch.
After all, there will be a performance tomorrow, so he has to go and see what's going on.
But just as Yang Xiaotao was preparing for lunch, Director Wang from the street office came running over on a bicycle, looking flustered.
"Auntie Wang..."
As soon as Yang Xiaotao opened his mouth, Director Wang pulled him forward and said anxiously, "Just now your village called and asked you to go back quickly!"
"What's the matter?"
Yang Xiaotao's heart tightened, and Ran Qiuye heard the voice in the room and hurried out to ask what was going on.
Director Wang only listened roughly and had no time to ask, "No one said anything, it seems that someone died, and asked you to go back quickly."
"By the way, I asked you to go directly to the grain station."
When he heard that someone died, Yang Xiaotao instantly became uneasy. Whether it was a construction site or a village, the call to him must have been a lot of things.
Old Jin heard the noise and ran over. Yang Xiaotao glanced at Ran Qiuye and said, "Look after the house. I'll go."
"Be careful."
Ran Qiuye only had time to say a word before Yang Xiaotao ran out.
"I'll go take a look."
After Old Jin finished speaking, Ms. Cui shouted from behind, "Take the clothes."
Zhang Qing also reacted and ran into the house to hold the coats of the two.
At this time, Ms. Cui ran to Old Jin with a worried look on her face, stretched out her hand to pull Old Jin's arm, and solemnly instructed, "Take good care of my grandson."
"Don't worry, I'm still old, no one can touch him."
Old Jin looked more serious than usual, patted Ms. Cui's arm, then took Zhang Qing's coat and ran out.
Looking at the grandfather and grandson leaving, Ms. Cui and Ran Qiuye were still a little uneasy, and they surrounded Director Wang to inquire about the situation.
Seeing that the family had lost its backbone, Director Wang pulled a few people into the house.
By the way, comfort the two.
Many people in the yard heard about Director Wang's arrival.
Yi Zhonghai instinctively lowered his head to reduce his presence after seeing Director Wang, but he didn't expect to hear such a thing.
He was immediately happy.
No matter where the death occurred, Yang Xiaotao would not be able to get it.
This is not an ordinary accident.
Why was he fired from the machinery factory? Wasn't it because of the death in that accident?
Fortunately, he also lost an important half of his leg, otherwise he would have been in labor reform for more than three years.
"I don't know what the situation is this time, hum."
"It's better to be a powerful one, so that this kid will suffer a little."
Yi Zhonghai cursed in his heart.
As for Yang Xiaotao's smooth life, Yi Zhonghai dared not even dream of it.
So when he saw Yang Xiaotao in trouble, he was so happy.
And there were obviously many people who thought the same as him.
Qin Huairu's eyes flashed with a smile. She was also one of the victims of the pressure cooker incident.
That time was also a turning point in her life.
Otherwise, she would still be a worker in the machinery factory and eat the food supplied by the city.
Life would not be so tight.
She would not have to work hard to plot against Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai, nor would she have to look at Jia Zhang's face.
Now that Yang Xiaotao has encountered such a thing, it might be a turning point for their Yang family.
The excitement in her heart was then slowly hidden, waiting for the outcome of the matter.
As for participating in something, she didn't think much about it at all.
The current situation does not allow them to be presumptuous, so it's better to watch the show with peace of mind.
In the jeep.
Yang Xiaotao said nothing, thinking about various possibilities in his mind.
It is very likely that there was an accident at the construction site. After all, even in the future, such things are unavoidable.
Especially when the safety awareness of mechanical operation is neglected, a slight negligence will lead to disaster.
Besides, even those who swing sledgehammers have their arms torn off.
These are easy to deal with. There are some solutions in the local area. You just need to follow the procedures. At most, the farm or the Academy of Agricultural Sciences can provide appropriate subsidies.
It's just like the steel mill had an accident before.
The most difficult thing to deal with now is man-made injuries and deaths.
Although it was an accident, it was also man-made. If the family of the deceased cannot accept the settlement, it will be difficult to deal with.
Yang Xiaotao was a little worried when he thought of those who could not reach a settlement in the future.
Don't let it be someone he knows.
Thinking of the villagers asking him to go back so quickly, this idea became stronger.
As for Aunt Wang's last words about going to the grain station, he didn't think much about it.
"Xiao Tao."
Lao Jin was sitting on the chair with a solemn expression on his face. Seeing that Yang Xiaotao didn't say a word, he still persuaded him.
"No matter what happens next, don't panic, understand?"
Lao Jin shouted loudly, and Yang Xiaotao drove the car and nodded.
Lao Jin saw that Yang Xiaotao was trapped, and he was even more worried, "You know, why did the village ask you to go back? That's because they don't know what to do, and they need to find a backbone, understand?"
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath and nodded seriously this time, "I know."
"You don't know, if you knew you wouldn't be so panicked, so anxious, and so out of control."
Lao Jin was still shouting, Yang Xiaotao subconsciously lowered his head, and his heartbeat slowly relaxed, "Grandpa, I know."
Seeing this, Lao Jin was relieved. This was also the first time he saw Yang Xiaotao lose his composure like this.
But thinking of the situation he was about to face, he was relieved.
After all, Yang Xiaotao was just a young man in his twenties.
"Don't panic. The more panicked you are, the easier it is to make wrong judgments."
"You should know these, and you must know them."
"You are now in a different position from your peers in the future."
"What you need to do is to think more, ask more, watch more, and listen more every time you make a decision, and don't rush to draw conclusions."
"You must force yourself to mature."
Old Jin spoke slowly, and Yang Xiaotao heard it in his heart.
Although the car was running very fast, it was much more stable than before.
Grain station.
When Yang Xiaotao's car arrived, he saw many people surrounded inside.
Among them were residents in the surrounding area, and there were also many security guards to maintain order.
Not far away, there were four cars, two jeeps and two trucks.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao couldn't help but frown.
At this moment, in the grain station.
Wang Guohua stood aside with his hands behind his back, and behind him were the beaten Shui team leader and his group. Many of them had bruises on their faces, and the serious ones had been sent to the local clinic.
After receiving the news from here, he immediately brought people over to protect Team Leader Shui and several others.
As for the cause of the incident, he also heard about it. It was basically the same as what he thought in his mind. The only thing that went wrong was that the stationmaster was too stubborn and too unexpected, and he was directly hit to death.
Of course, death is death. In his opinion, it is more like suicide out of fear of crime, or even trying to take the blame and fight for others.
He knew that Ding Deliang, nicknamed Fatty Ding, was very close to the people in Yangjiazhuang, and had an unusual relationship with Yang Xiaotao.
However, the death of this person did affect his subsequent plans.
Looking at the woman and child lying on the ground crying in front of him, and the group of people standing behind them, they glared at him one by one, with a hint of contempt on their faces.
Turning his head, he looked at the third party in the factory, Section Chief Wu's superior, and the other party's face was solemn.
But he believed that the other party would definitely not admit his mistake.
If they admitted it, they could not afford the consequences.
As long as both parties insist that this is just an investigation and that the other party committed suicide out of fear of punishment, this is certain.
Thinking of this, Wang Guohua looked at the door. Why hasn't the person he was waiting for come yet?
'Come on, our second match has just begun. '
"Xiao Tao!"
Just when Yang Xiaotao came to the periphery, Master Yang led a group of people waiting at the door. When he saw them, he waved.
"Master, what's the situation? Who died?"
Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and asked anxiously, especially when he saw the sadness on Master Yang's face, his heart sank.
"Fatty, Fatty Ding is gone."
Uncle Jiu on the side spoke first, and his old face was a little more depressed.
"Who?"
"Your Uncle Ding, Fatty Ding!"
"Ding, Uncle Ding? How is it possible? What happened to him?"
"Why is he gone?"
"What happened?"
Yang Xiaotao asked in disbelief. He thought a lot, but he never thought that Fatty Ding would be in trouble.
A chubby face suddenly appeared in his mind, always smiling with squinting eyes.
"Xiaotao, I am your Uncle Ding. I held you when I was a child."
"Uncle, where did you learn this shameless skill?"
"Black and white? You only know how to tease your Uncle Ding."
"How many people can be fed with so much food?"
Pictures burst out from his mind, and voices seemed to ring in his ears.
Yang Xiaotao's eyes were moist. In his heart, Fatty Ding was a good man.
A responsible and good man.
But how could such a person just disappear?
Wiping away the tears from his eyes, Yang Xiaotao's face turned serious, "Uncle Jiu, what's going on?"
Grandfather Jiu and Uncle Jiu looked at each other, then pulled Yang Xiaotao aside and told him what he knew.
"What?"
Yang Xiaotao opened his mouth in disbelief.
The shock in his eyes was far less than the shock in his heart.
He didn't expect that someone would come to cause trouble.
Yes, to cause trouble. Where can't there be such a thing as borrowing grain from a grain station?
This is already a well-known fact in the rural villages. How could someone suddenly check this?
Also, he didn't expect that Uncle Ding, who seemed to be laughing and joking on weekdays, was so strong-willed.
The strong-willedness shocked him.
The shock made him angry.
"Don't look at the fat man's heartless appearance, but he is full of responsibility."
"I will help any village in need."
"I have been the stationmaster of this town grain station for many years, and there are almost no people starving to death in our villages."
"Everyone knows that this is wrong, but..."
"The fat man has a scale in his heart."
The grandfather said heavily, and Uncle Jiu's eyes were blurred.
"The fat man is a good man."
Everyone nodded behind him.
Yang Xiaotao loosened his fist, and Lao Jin patted his shoulder behind him.
"What's going on inside now?"
Yang Xiaotao asked, and the grandfather's face was filled with anger. "They want to convict Fatty, and your uncle Dazhuang is the key person inside and is blocking them from leaving."
"Asshole!"
Yang Xiaotao roared, and was about to walk inside.
"Xiaotao!"
"Did you forget what I said?"
Old Jin shouted from behind, and Yang Xiaotao paused.
Then he walked inside again.
In the grain station.
When Yang Xiaotao walked in, everyone around him made way for him.
Step by step, the eyes of the people around him moved with him.
In the center of the venue, crying came.
Yang Xiaotao had already seen the crying women and the wailing children.
That was Fatty Ding's wife and children.
Looking forward again, a middle-aged man, a little fat, stood in the middle of the grain station, followed by seven or eight people, with a stern face.
Then, Yang Xiaotao looked to the right, where a familiar face, smiling, looked at him.
Wang Guohua!
For a moment, their eyes intertwined and collided.
But the next second, Yang Xiaotao looked away, as if he was afraid, which made Wang Guohua a little surprised.
The expected violent reaction did not appear. This unusual reaction did not make Wang Guohua happy. On the contrary, he felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart.
And the moment Yang Xiaotao looked away, there was only one sentence in his mind.
Fatty is a good person.
At the beginning, there was a Hao Ren in the machinery factory.
That Hao Ren died to save him.
Fatty is a good person, and there are reasons for him.
Are good people destined to be bound by rules?
Or do good people have to be unrewarded?
No, it's not their fault.
The fault is the person who made this happen.
And now, Yang Xiaotao has figured out one thing in his heart.
This world will turn the same without anyone.
When the eyes look away, it is not fear, not compromise, and not surrender.
Because there is no need to stay on a dead person.
