Chapter 116 Qin Huairu visits Jia Zhang in prison and is beaten again
Chapter 116 Qin Huairu visits Jia Zhang in prison and is beaten again
The next day, it was time for the prison to have lunch early in the morning.
There are two tubes at the door of each cell, one of which is filled with steamed corn bread, and the other is filled with cabbage stewed in boiling water.
In every cell, there is a big sister who is responsible for serving meals, and this person is naturally Wang Sufen.
Everyone took the lunch boxes and took pictures.
The same was true for Jia Zhang. She was arrested last night and had not had dinner yet. She was then beaten. With Jia Zhang's plump body, she could eat a lot.
Jia Zhang was beaten yesterday and wanted to be the first to eat, but she was worried about being beaten again, so she had to obediently line up at the back.
One by one, they went to Wang Sufen to get food, two steamed buns and half a spoonful of cabbage for each person.
Jia Zhang was rushed here yesterday, but the prison cafeteria did not report it immediately.
When it was Jia Zhang's turn, they found that both seats were empty.
She was immediately filled with anger and wanted to vent, but when she saw everyone staring at her coldly, she dared not say a word.
The beating I got last night is still fresh in my mind.
"Pa pa pa!" Jia Zhang slapped the railing hard.
"Master prison guard, master prison guard!" Jia Zhang shouted.
"Bitch, why are you making so much noise! It's so annoying!" The lackey Liu Erniu scolded. She thought Jia Zhang was going to complain.
"Do you want to do it again?"
"No, no." Jia Zhang hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Then what are you yelling about? Why don't you go to the bathroom? What are you doing here? You're just an eyesore."
"Oh, yes, yes!" Jia Zhang said with her head down, holding the lunch box and preparing to go in.
"Boom!"
At this time, the prison guard came over after hearing the noise and asked, "Who was looking for us just now?"
Hearing the prison guard's words, everyone in the cell immediately put down their lunch boxes and steamed bread, stood up and stood straight.
The prison guard nodded when he saw everyone like this.
"Who was looking for us just now?"
"I, I, I~" Jia Zhang shouted immediately. Looking at how respectful these women were, Jia Zhang knew that the prison guard was the real boss.
Just as she was about to speak, Jia Zhang suddenly felt a chill on her back, but she remembered what the prison guard said when she came in.
"You will stay in this cell for the next month. You will not be moved unless something serious happens."
Jia Zhang wanted to change it, but if she couldn't, she would be beaten again.
"Mr. Prison guard, I have no food." Jia Zhang said pitifully.
He pointed to two empty buckets and then gestured to his lunch box.
Seeing this, the prison guard was also very confused, "How could it be less? Everyone has a fixed amount! Did you steal some?"
The prison guard pointed at everyone, and everyone immediately said, "No!"
Hearing this, the prison guard didn't want to care. He didn't care whether the man was cheating or not. Those who could come to the prison were not good people.
"If you don't have it, just starve. You won't die if you skip a meal!" After saying that, the prison guard left.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Erniu looked at Jia Zhang and said angrily, "Humph, luckily you kept your mouth shut. If you dare to say anything bad about us, I'll tear your mouth apart again!"
"Hurry up and go to the toilet!"
Jia Zhang ran into the toilet like a rat crossing the street.
On the other side, the Jia family.
After cleaning up the house, Qin Huairu took some steamed buns and went to the prison to visit Jia Zhang.
Because there was no bicycle, Qin Huairu could only walk there with her big belly.
Qin Huairu was actually very reluctant in her heart. She hoped that Jia Zhang would stay in prison forever and never come out, but she also knew that this was wishful thinking.
When they arrived at the prison gate, the prison guard asked some routine questions. Because Qin Huairu was pregnant, the prison guard did not make things too difficult for her.
Not long after, Qin Huairu saw Jia Zhang walking in from the visiting gate.
Jia Zhang's face was covered with bruises, with a faint slap mark visible on her face, her hair was messy, and her clothes were torn.
I didn't expect that after just one day, Jia Zhang's life in there was so miserable!
Qin Huairu was somewhat surprised and also somewhat delighted.
"Okay, go ahead and tell us when the person is here!" said the prison guard, then walked aside.
When she saw Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang felt like she had found a life-saving straw.
Behind the iron bars, Jia Zhang cried loudly: "Daughter-in-law, are you here to take me back?"
"I don't want to go to jail. This is not a place for people to stay. Ask Yi Zhonghai to find a way to get me out."
Qin Huairu looked bitter and said awkwardly:
"Mom, I also asked an old man for help, but he couldn't help either. He said that even the police station didn't give the old lady face, so it's even more impossible for them to intervene here."
"Mom, you just stay in there and reform yourself, and try to get out as soon as possible," Qin Huairu comforted her.
Hearing this, Jia Zhang's face changed, "Great! Yi Zhonghai, that bastard, can't help when needed, no wonder he is a family extinction!"
"And this old lady, she's so old, and she's still using a cane, why doesn't she just die?"
"And you, Qin Huairu, don't think you can do whatever you want just because I'm in prison. Wait until I get out, and see how I deal with you!"
After scolding for a while, Jia Zhang felt tired.
"Did you bring any food? I'm starving. This crappy prison doesn't even give me anything to eat!" Jia Zhang cursed.
The prison guard beside him couldn't help but frown deeply after hearing this curse.
"Yes, yes." Qin Huairu quickly took out the lunch box.
After Jia Zhang took it and opened the lunch box, she saw that it was filled with white flour buns. She picked up two buns and started eating without caring about getting her hands dirty.
"Uh-huh~"
Jia Zhang was eating voraciously, and the way she ate looked even uglier than ever before.
Seeing that Jia Zhang had eaten a few steamed buns, the prison guard lost his patience and said, "Zhang Cuihua, visiting time is up! You should go back to your cell!"
"Mr. Prison Guard, I haven't finished eating yet. Wait a moment!" Jia Zhang hurriedly took a few more bites.
"Mom, hide the steamed buns!" Qin Huairu said hurriedly.
The steamed buns that Qin Huairu brought were all touched by Jia Zhang, and the black handprints were so disgusting that she had no appetite to eat them.
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang hurriedly hid the steamed buns on her body.
Seeing this, the prison guard didn't say anything and directly escorted Jia Zhang back to the cell.
Qin Huairu didn't say anything when she saw this. As for asking the prison guards to help take care of Jia Zhang, she was overthinking it!
After leaving the prison, Qin Huairu walked back on foot.
When Jia Zhang returned to the cell, all the prisoners came to her.
"Hey, bitch, you're back! Is it your family who came to see you? Did they bring anything delicious?" Wang Erniu said sarcastically.
"No! No!" Jia Zhang denied it flatly.
"No? Is it true or false, or do you dare to hide it?" Wang Erniu suddenly asked.
Then he grabbed Jia Zhang with both hands and groped her up and down.
Soon, he caught something soft.
"You still dare to say that you didn't hide anything?" Liu Erniu said angrily.
"Pa!" He raised his hand and slapped him.
Then he found the hidden steamed bun in Jia Zhang's arms.
"Don't take it away, this is mine, mine!" Jia Zhang grabbed Liu Erniu's clothes, trying to get her steamed bun back.
"Pa!" Another powerful slap.
"Bitch, you still dare to scream there, it seems that yesterday's lesson is not enough! Someone, take you to the toilet and teach you a lesson!"
As soon as the voice fell, the burly women from yesterday came again, holding Jia Zhang and going to the toilet.
"No, no! I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Jia Zhang struggled desperately and kept shouting for mercy, but no one cared.
"Humph, you have something delicious, but you don't know how to show respect to the boss. You don't even know this rule. I see you still don't accept it, so I'm going to beat you into submission today!"
After Liu Erniu finished speaking, she motioned for the others to take her away.
He took the steamed buns he had snatched and went to honor the eldest sister Wang Sufen.
"Boss, you eat the steamed buns first!" Liu Erniu handed over the steamed buns with a flattering look.
Wang Sufen saw that there were also handprints on the steamed buns and frowned slightly, but she didn't care.
I took it directly and ate a few bites.
"Mmmmm~"
The steamed buns were still warm and soft when chewed. She hadn't eaten them for a long time.
The prison naturally wouldn't provide fine grains like steamed bread, so it's considered good enough if they could provide corn bread.
After all, these prisoners in prison basically do not provide any economic value, but they still cost money to support.
Wang Sufen had been in prison many times, and her family no longer visited her, so naturally they would not bring anything. The women watched Wang Sufen eating steamed buns, and their mouths drooled, and their throats kept moving.
"Will you eat the remaining one?" Wang Sufen ordered.
"Thank you, boss!" Wang Erniu replied, biting off half of it in one gulp, and savoring the rest in small bites.
"Ah!" A sharp howl was heard.
Wang Sufen couldn't help but frown slightly, which also disturbed Liu Erniu's interest in eating steamed buns, and she immediately became angry!
"Boss, I'll teach her a lesson!"
Wang Sufen nodded slightly and waved her hand!
Seeing this, the two women behind Wang Sufen came forward to give her a massage.
"Damn it, you still dare to scream there!" Liu Erniu walked to the toilet cursing and picked up a piece of rag.
"Shut up and watch how I deal with this bitch!"
Jia Zhang looked at Liu Erniu approaching step by step in horror, her body shaking uncontrollably.
Liu Erniu walked slowly towards Jia Zhang with a strange smile on her face.
"Don't come over here, don't come over here!" he muttered to himself, begging.
"Snapped!!!"
After a while, Liu Erniu dragged Jia Zhang, who looked like a dead dog, to Wang Sufen.
"Bitch, remember this, if you have something good in the future, don't think about eating it. You should honor the boss, okay?"
"Got it?" Jia Zhang said weakly, her voice as soft as a mosquito.
"You still dare not speak. It seems you still don't accept it. Come on, keep beating me!" Liu Erniu ordered.
In front of Wang Sufen, everyone beat Jia Zhang up again.
Poor Jia Zhang, she got beaten for nothing.
"That's enough!" Liu Erniu waved her hand and everyone stopped.
Pulling up Jia Zhang's hair, Liu Erniu said word by word: "Do you remember what I just said?"
"Remember, remember!" Jia Zhang said weakly, her voice still as thin as a mosquito.
"Speak louder. You haven't eaten yet because you are speaking so softly. Do you want to be beaten?" Liu Erniu yelled loudly in Jia Zhang's ear.
"I know, I know!" Jia Zhang begged hurriedly, her body curled up into a ball, and she kept backing away.
"That's better!" Liu Erniu clapped her hands, "Throw her back to the toilet!"
The men then let Jia Zhang go. Before she could eat a few bites of steamed buns and before she had enough strength, she was beaten twice.
-
On the other side, Li Kailang came to the steel rolling mill.
"Hey, Comrade Li Kailang, wait a minute!"
Li Kailang turned around and saw that it was the security guard calling him, so he stopped and waited for him.
"Comrade, what's the matter?"
"Director Li wants to see you. Don't go to the transport team. Go directly to Director Li's office."
"Okay, anything else?"
"No, just go ahead."
After saying this, the security guard returned to his post.
When Li Kailang heard the security guard's address, he knew that this was Li Huaide's person in the Security Department.
If you are not Li Huaide’s subordinate, who would dare to call him that?
Li Kailang did not go to the transport team, but went directly to Li Huaide's office.
In the room outside, I met the secretary Wen Peixin again.
"Brother Wen, what does Director Li want to talk to me about?" Li Kailang greeted him and handed him a cigarette.
Wen Peixin glanced at Li Kailang with a little surprise and took the cigarette.
Seeing this, Li Kailang understood that it should not be a big deal, and Wen Peixin did not reject him.
Light a cigarette for him.
"No, it's not good to smoke right after work!"
Li Kailang nodded. He didn't smoke either.
Wen Peixin took a sip and said slowly, "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing. On the contrary, it's a good thing."
"You kid, it's quite surprising that the three leaders took you so seriously and discussed your problem overnight."
"Oh? What do you mean?" Li Kailang was very confused.
"Okay, the director will need some time, so I will just talk to you briefly!" Wen Peixin explained slowly.
It turned out that Li Kailang was called away by Secretary Wang and Director Feng yesterday, and the three of them felt something was wrong.
Originally, they wanted to have the Ministry of Metallurgy act as a go-between and communicate with the Patent Office so that some of the benefits could be shared with the ministry.
It's mainly foreign exchange. When the patent application is approved and foreign exchange is earned, their metallurgical department will also be able to get a portion of it.
This way, the Ministry of Metallurgy will have an easier time, and even the foreign exchange quota can be increased.
"How come you were found by the director of the Patent Office by chance? Now you are in trouble."
"Originally, the foreign exchange could be allocated to the department because you were found by the Patent Office. From now on, the foreign exchange earned will be directly given to the factory."
"The foreign exchange given to our factory is not as much as that given to the ministry. Besides, even if it is given to the ministry, the ministry still has a separate share for us."
To put it simply, if the report is from the Ministry of Metallurgy, then the steel rolling mill has two foreign exchange incomes, one from the Industrial and Commercial Administration Bureau and the other from the Ministry of Metallurgy.
The two incomes are more than what the Industrial and Commercial Administration Bureau gives alone.
“Look, the three leaders, having just returned from the ministry, heard that you were taken away, and they hurried back to the ministry.”
After hearing this, the top leader immediately ran to the State Council to ask for an explanation.
But when Li Huaide's father-in-law heard it, he seemed indifferent.
"Okay, I know about this. Since the people over there have left, it's no use for me to go there again. You go back first!"
When a senior leader goes, he will naturally share the credit, because that is foreign exchange! He is worried about getting ironmaking equipment, so if a part of it can be allocated to him, it will be easier to buy these equipment.
To be honest, Li Kailang is still an employee of the factory under their Metallurgical Ministry.
"I finally got back from the ministry, and now I have to hold another meeting for you! To discuss how to reward you."
"Is that so? Then I was reckless, but Secretary Wang came to me and I couldn't refuse!" Li Kailang said helplessly.
Hearing this, Wen Peixin also nodded.
There is no way. Secretary Wang’s status and position in the factory is quite special. Although he and Secretary Lu are good friends, they serve different masters.
"But everyone is doing this for the good of the factory, so you don't have to take it too seriously."
"But then again, your invention has brought great honor to our factory and made our leaders proud."
"What do you mean?" Li Kailang asked puzzledly.
"You know the relationship between our factory and the First and Second Steel Rolling Mills, right? They are our competitors."
"Yes, I met them when I was delivering cement."
"I almost forgot. You are familiar with this."
"In the past, we were always inferior to them and felt ashamed. You know that our factory cannot compare to these two factories in any way."
Li Kailang nodded.
"Because of your invention, we can proudly say in the future: 'The foreign exchange used by your factory has contributed to our factory!'"
Wen Peixin's tone was full of excitement and pride.
"We no longer have to listen to them saying things like, 'The Third Steel Rolling Mill is no good. Look at how you can compare with us!'"
As a member of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, Wen Peixin naturally feels extremely excited and proud to see his factory getting better and better.
When I communicated with other factories in the past, I always felt looked down upon, but now I can finally stand up straight.
Li Kailang's invention gave the Red Star Steel Mill the capital to stand on equal footing with them, and they could no longer underestimate the Red Star Steel Mill.
Wen Peixin was very excited just by imagining this scene.
Although Wen Peixin didn't know how much foreign exchange Li Kailang's invention could earn, judging from the importance the leaders attached to this matter, it would definitely be a lot.
After all, with the state machinery running, there is a high probability that this will succeed.
Seeing Wen Peixin so obsessed, Li Kailang did not try to break it up.
After all, after staying there for more than a month, Li Kailang was unconsciously assimilated into the atmosphere of the times and began to attach some importance to this collective honor.
If this had happened when I first traveled through time, I would have definitely scoffed at such things.
Collective honor is not as important as your own comfort!
"Okay, I won't chat with you anymore. Look at the time. Director Li will be here soon. You better get ready!"
