Chapter 38 The Deaf Old Lady Was Arrested
"What? The old lady is actually pretending to be a martyr's widow?"
"Oh my God, she has been lying to us for so many years?"
“Oh my god, this is so exciting!”
The neighbors were all dumbfounded and looked at the deaf old lady in disbelief, their eyes filled with shock and astonishment.
Yi Zhonghai was so shocked that he was speechless. He stood there blankly, his mind blank and his mouth wide open, as if he had seen a ghost.
As for the deaf old lady, her face had already turned pale, her whole body was trembling, and her legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground.
She looked around in panic, and felt as if everyone's gazes had turned into sharp knives, cutting her into pieces, as if they wanted to cut off a few pieces of flesh from her body to vent their anger.
The deaf old lady felt extremely sad, and tears fell uncontrollably, like a lost lamb, helpless and desperate.
She defended herself in a trembling voice: "Director Wang, there must be something wrong! How could I, an old woman, pretend to be a martyr's widow? My husband died for the revolution, and his honor certificate is still here! Please, don't wrongly accuse a good person!"
Director Wang sneered and interrupted the deaf old lady without any courtesy:
"Don't use these clichés to fool me! You still want to deny it after all this? I tell you, the neighborhood office has already checked and there is no record of the martyr's family in your file! If you are not convinced, you can take out the proof and confront us in front of so many people!"
As he spoke, Director Wang looked around, swept his eyes through the crowd, and shouted:
"Comrade Wang Suqin, I ask you again, do you have a martyr's honor certificate? If you do, please take it out in public so that everyone can see it clearly! If not, don't blame our street office for being rude!"
The words were so powerful and resounding that they gave everyone present a shudder.
How could the deaf old lady speak? She was trembling all over, her face was pale, and her lips moved, but no sound came out.
She knew that she could no longer hide this lie.
Yi Zhonghai, who was standing by, was also frightened out of his wits. He looked at Director Wang, then at the deaf old lady, his mind in a mess.
"How...how is this possible? How could the old lady be a liar? How...how could she be a liar? How...how could she be a liar?"
Yi Laoer stuttered, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.
The neighbors around also started talking about it:
"I never thought that this deaf old lady who usually looks so righteous would actually be a liar!"
"That's right. At first they said they sacrificed themselves for the revolution and their glorious deeds moved heaven and earth. But what happened? It turned out to be all fake!"
"I think she is just relying on her age to bully us because we are young and ignorant. That's why she dares to lie like that!"
For a moment, the courtyard was filled with noise and everyone was filled with indignation.
The deaf old lady collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down her face, begging: "Everyone, don't listen to the nonsense outside! Someone must have framed me, I am innocent, I... "
Director Wang snorted coldly and interrupted her mercilessly:
"Don't try to use such tricks! The evidence is solid and facts speak louder than words. Since you can't produce a martyr certificate, then just follow us back to the street office and accept the organization's review. I have to say that you are so old and you are not afraid of retribution. You usually pretend to be a decent person. I didn't expect you to be such a shameless person! It's really disappointing!"
Director Wang's tone was very unfriendly, and his face was frighteningly gloomy.
"Take the man away!" She waved to the clerk next to her and gave the order coldly.
Two clerks immediately stepped forward, picked up the deaf old lady who was crying breathlessly, and dragged her out without saying a word.
Yi Zhonghai opened his mouth wide, unable to utter a word. He couldn't believe that the old lady he had followed for many years was actually a liar.
Yi Zhonghai felt uneasy. He looked at the deaf old lady being taken away, then looked at Director Wang whose face was ashen, and felt that something was wrong.
At this time, Yan Bugui ran over happily, approached Director Wang, and said attentively: "Director Wang, don't worry, I have notified all the residents in the courtyard, and we can have a meeting at any time."
Director Wang glanced at him coldly, nodded, then looked around and said loudly: "Since everyone is here, let's go to the Intermediate Court to talk about something."
As soon as the words fell, a discussion broke out among the crowd.
Everyone was talking at once, guessing what important news Director Wang was going to announce.
At this moment, Li Yang walked out of the house slowly, with his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed, as if he was indifferent to all this.
When Yi Zhonghai saw Li Yang appear, his heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that something was wrong.
He always felt that these things were caused by this kid. As expected, Li Yang glanced over here slowly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a hint of amusement and disdain in his eyes.
That look, half-smiley, made people feel uneasy. Yi Zhonghai felt his scalp tingling, as if someone had seen through his thoughts, and he immediately felt uneasy.
"This kid, what does he know?" Yi Zhonghai was panic-stricken and the expression on his face became a little stiff.
He tried to remain calm, pretending nothing had happened, and quickly followed Director Wang.
The group walked towards the center of the courtyard in a mighty procession, and the neighbors followed, all of them rushing to get in, fearing that they would miss any important news.
Soon, the central courtyard was packed with people, a dark mass of about forty or fifty people.
Li Yang walked slowly into the crowd and sat down at random. He looked calm, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was resting his mind or thinking about something.
Director Wang cleared his throat and said loudly: "Comrades, we have called you all here today because we have something important to announce. I believe everyone has seen that just now, we took the deaf old lady, Comrade Wang Suqin, back to the street office for investigation."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the crowd. Everyone was talking to each other.
"So it's really her! I was wondering, she looks like a decent old lady, but I didn't expect she's actually a liar!"
"That's right! She has been pretending to be a martyr's widow for so many years and has taken advantage of us. Let's see how she can deny it!"
"Tsk tsk, people's hearts are no longer the same these days! The world is really going downhill!"
