Chapter 152 Zhao Liang's Work, Past Pain and Sacrifice
Chapter 152 Zhao Liang's Work, Past Pain and Sacrifice
Grandpa Jiang glared at the smug old man opposite him with an unhappy look on his face, and cursed in his heart: "Huh! This is my own granddaughter, look how capable you are!" At this moment, Fang Yanjin, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "Liu Xuemei died today." This was really shocking news.
These words were like a bombshell dropped into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves. Everyone present was stunned, their mouths opened so wide that an egg could almost fit in.
Zhao Peng, who was the first to react, widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "Oh my God! When did this happen? And why?"
Fang Yanjin took a sip of the milk tea the little girl had prepared for him and slowly explained, "The thing is, we already had evidence of Yu Jiang's crime and were about to arrest him. But who would have thought that Liu Xuemei was still obsessed with asking Yu Jiang to help her find a job, so she went to find him.
As a result, he was taken hostage by the alert Yu Jiang by chance.
In fact, our police had a chance to successfully rescue Liu Xuemei, but I don't know if this woman was crazy, she kept struggling and resisting. It is probably this action that completely angered Yu Jiang, so he finally killed her.
It's quite dramatic, who would have thought she would lose her life in this way."
After hearing the entire incident, everyone sighed deeply. Zhao Peng, having recovered a little, then asked, "So... has Yu Jiang been apprehended?"
Fang Yanjin nodded and replied, "We did catch him, but he's a complete lunatic! He actually planted a large amount of explosives where he lives. If they were to explode, the consequences would be disastrous. I'm afraid the area within several miles would be severely damaged and reduced to ruins."
"Are you okay?" Old Master Fang broke out in a cold sweat.
"It's okay. This person has been completely controlled. Junjun gave me some medicine and got some useful information."
This information can be discussed publicly. The reason why Fang Yanjin told it was simply to let everyone have a general understanding of the current situation.
He slowly said, "As for the GWH director position, we must appoint a truly capable person! If we send someone unreliable, I'm afraid there will be no peace here again."
Grandpa Jiang, standing by, understood the situation. He knew that the higher-ups must have made some arrangements for this matter. After all, the fact that Fang Yanjin and his men had been so alerted to the situation proved that Yu Jiang was a man of great character.
At this moment, Fang Yanjin's gaze suddenly turned to Zhao Liang, and as if he remembered something, he said, "Zhao Liang, I wonder if you are interested in working at GWH?" It turned out that he still remembered that the little girl had mentioned to him before that her brother had always had ambitions to go into politics, and now might be a rare opportunity.
Hearing this, Zhao Liang's eyes lit up, showing great interest, and quickly asked: "Can I really do this?"
Seeing this, Fang Yanjin smiled slightly and replied, "Of course, although it may be difficult to directly serve as the director, it is not difficult to arrange a suitable position for you.
Moreover, the personnel in that place are complicated and the relationships are intricate, which is very challenging. "Uncle, what do you think?" It must be said that Zhao Weiye was a great help in obtaining the key evidence so quickly this time.
"Okay, but you have to think carefully when you go there. The place may not have a very good reputation." After all, Zhao Liang is still young. Although he is very mature, he may not be able to withstand rumors sometimes.
"I am mentally prepared for this, and with my current ability, the most important thing is training. I'll go." Zhao Liang confirmed his thoughts and answered Fang Yanjin while looking at him.
"Okay, then I'll take care of the arrangements. You wait for the news."
"So, are you interested in my job, second brother or third brother?" Zhao Liang thought that if he went to GWH, his current job would be vacant. If his family did it, he wouldn't sell it.
"We two won't do this anymore. We'll go find other jobs for the next few years." Jiang Langtian and Jiang Langfeng returned together. They weren't interested in this.
"Okay, then I'll find someone and sell the job."
"It's time to eat, set the table and serve the dishes." Jiang Junjun shouted from the kitchen, and everyone started to move.
"Weiye, you should go back tomorrow too. You've asked for two more days off. You're the factory director, so it's time for you to go back." Grandpa Jiang looked at his son-in-law. He guessed that Zhao Weiye should have gone out with Fang Yanjin and the others these past two days. Although he came back earlier than Fang Yanjin every day, his aura would not lie.
"I know, Dad. We will go back tomorrow." After saying that, he looked at his parents again. "Mom and Dad, you just live here. Don't worry about us. The children are grown up and can take care of themselves. You just live well with my mother-in-law and her family in your old age.
Look at how good my son is. He found a wife and provided you with a place to live in your old age. "Zhao Weiye felt that the happiest thing in his life was meeting Jiang Aihua and holding on to her firmly.
Zhao Weiye looked at his wife beside him with a face full of love.
"The room is full of pink bubbles." Jiang Junjun couldn't help but teasing the two of them when she saw her uncle's look.
The old couple of the Zhao family have become accustomed to seeing their son's behavior. Grandpa Zhao picked up a piece of braised pork for Grandma Zhao, as if to say, who doesn't have a wife?
As Cui Lingwu was eating, he felt that this family was really enviable, and the food in his mouth tasted even more delicious.
"You will have one in the future. Come on, find a girl you like." Zhao Peng happened to be sitting next to Cui Lingwu, and he was envious at the sight of his expression.
"I'm telling you, when you look for a wife in the future, you'd better look carefully. The top-notch ones won't work. If that doesn't work, you can ask me to help you find one. I have a good eye for people." Zhao Peng was very familiar and wanted to screen people, and no one knew what his identity was.
"Eat yours quickly!" Jiang Aihua heard the brat's shameless words and gave him a strong motherly love.
"Ahem, Mom, let's eat. If you continue like this, you won't be able to see your dear son tomorrow." Zhao Peng looked at his mother aggrievedly.
Jiang Aihua ignored him at all.
"Lingwu, this guy is right about what he said. Marry a virtuous wife. A good wife will benefit three generations. Just look at our family."
"Fang Yanjin, don't forget to pick up the photos if you go to town tomorrow.
We sent the photos we took before to be developed, and it was expedited.
It's just right that you can take it with you when you leave in a few days.
Just give it to your aunt and her family directly."
After the group came back that day, they took some time the next day to take a lot of photos, including family photos, and sent them to the town for expedited development.
Speaking of taking photos, I have to tell you an interesting story. Grandpa Jiang wanted to take another wedding photo with Grandma Jiang, but Grandma Jiang refused to agree and felt very embarrassed.
But in the end, the old lady couldn't persuade Grandpa Jiang, and the two of them still took two wedding photos. She also specially dug out the clothes they wore when they got married when they were young.
When taking the photo, Grandma Jiang couldn't help but shed tears.
The two of them have been through so many ups and downs and have been through so many things to get to where they are today. It is really not easy.
Looking at the whole family, Grandma Jiang was so happy that she shed tears of happiness.
"It's a pity that my parents are gone. If they were still alive, our family would have four generations living under one roof." Grandma Jiang missed her father-in-law and mother-in-law very much. They treated her like their own daughter. After all, the kind old man and woman could not escape the enemy's fire.
Stay in that year forever.
"Oh, grandma, let me tell you, my great-grandma and great-grandfather are looking at our big family from heaven, and they will definitely be happier and more blessed.
Although they are not with us, we are still living so well. Isn't this what they want?
The elderly should be taken care of and the young should have someone to rely on. None of us can decide our own life and death, so in this life, it is enough as long as we are happy while we are alive.
I believe that when my great-grandparents were alive, they were also the happiest people. I was just born in that era and there was nothing I could do about it.
They made the decision they thought was best at the time.”
Jiang Junjun had listened to Grandpa Jiang telling stories about the heavy and heartbreaking past countless times.
At that time, my great-grandfather and great-grandmother were already in their sixties, but it was a time of war and smoke.
The old people in the village are well aware of the cruelty and ruthlessness of war. In order to allow the younger generation to continue to survive, they are willing to risk their lives to protect those energetic faces.
The enemies at that time were like demons, burning, killing and looting wantonly, and plundered the entire village.
The food that the villagers depended on for survival was completely looted, and even a grain of rice or a leaf of vegetable was difficult to find.
In this desperate situation, the elderly in the village showed an incredible spirit of sacrifice, saving every bite of food at every meal and leaving it to the young people. However, hunger was always around, and many innocent lives were eventually starved to death due to lack of food.
Despite such misery, the vicious enemy showed no mercy.
They set fire to the village, the raging flames devouring every house, reducing once warm and peaceful homes to ashes in an instant; they also cruelly used villagers as living subjects for inhumane scientific research; they even dropped deadly bombs, leaving the land devastated and bloody.
When Fang Yanjin mentioned Liu Xuemei's tragic end, Grandpa Jiang didn't feel a trace of regret. After all, he had personally experienced that dark and horrific period of history and witnessed the suffering and torture endured by so many of his compatriots.
Grandpa Jiang had long hated the enemy for all the heinous crimes they had committed, and naturally, someone like Liu Xuemei, who was involved with the enemy, would not receive his sympathy. He even hated her even more.
You know, what Liu Xuemei did this time was simply courting disaster! Coupled with Yu Jiang's true identity, even Grandpa Jiang had guessed that this Yu Jiang was most likely the spy left behind from that time.
Who could have imagined that she would become entangled with such a person? Therefore, no matter how miserable the end of these people was, it was all their own fault and they deserved it.
Some people may think that such a result sounds too dramatic, but Grandpa Jiang doesn't think so. He firmly believes that this is the most reasonable thing and what should happen.
If we continue to turn a blind eye to people like this, more and more innocent people will be implicated and harmed.
Don't say Grandpa Jiang is ruthless and devoid of any human kindness. In fact, it's not that he lacks these qualities, but it depends on the specific situation.
When faced with vicious enemies, insidious and cunning spies, and traitors who betrayed their allies and defected to the enemy, Grandpa Jiang would never feel mercy, nor would he let them have a good life.
There was one thing Fang Yanjin didn't mention explicitly: thanks to everyone's swift and decisive action, Qunshan Village might have been in real trouble. After all, Liu Xuemei was no pushover; she had indeed revealed a lot of important information to Yu Jiang.
Although Liu Xuemei did not have any solid evidence to support what she said, whether it was the scenes she witnessed with her own eyes or the speculations she made based on her own experience, for the meticulous Yu Jiang, they could all become valuable resources that could be utilized.
That guy was a powerful character and acted quickly. If they hadn't been paying close attention, they really didn't know what the outcome would have been.
"Before we leave, we will go to pay our respects to the two old people and the ancestors of Qunshan Village." Everyone felt very sad when they heard these things.
Mr. Fang had personally experienced this, so he wanted to pay tribute to those who couldn't see China today. They are respectable. China's future will definitely get better and better, but he didn't know if he could see such a prosperous era himself!
"Okay, Qunshan Village does have its own ancestral hall, but in recent years, no one has done anything public about it. Only during the New Year can the elders of the village go there to pay their respects. They're afraid that the young people won't be able to keep it secret, especially the children. They're afraid that it will bring harm to the villagers.
Since everyone is here today, I will just say a few more words. The Jiang family can be mediocre, but they must never be cowards, betray their friends, or do things that are harmful to the country.
Benevolence and righteousness also differ from person to person. We must clearly distinguish right from wrong and not make false excuses without knowing who is right. "When Grandpa Jiang said this, his expression was unusually serious.
"It's not just the Jiang family, everyone present here. The Fang and Jiang families will also be a family in the future. Everyone should encourage each other so that the family and individuals can get better and better. The saying that a single tree cannot make a forest is true." Old Master Fang also followed closely to educate the younger generation.
In such a scene, it was fortunate that it was dinner time. Otherwise, I would not be able to eat.
Cui Lingwu nodded quickly, like a chick pecking at rice. "Emma, not everyone would tell you this kind of teaching." He was grateful that no one avoided him.
