Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

What is the most attractive thing these days?

It was a romantic affair, naturally.

Everyone inside and outside the courtyard became excited. After all, they lived nearby and knew that this courtyard belonged to the widow Wu Qian. The silver woman was naturally Wu Qian, so who was the cheap husband?

Then I heard the thief in the house continue to shout:

"Haha, this woman has really fair skin and shiny cheeks. This fat guy is so lucky. The good cabbages are eaten by pigs."

The eyes of those who heard the sound lit up.

What does this mean? It means that the two people who were having an affair in the house were not wearing any clothes. The widow Wu Qian is very beautiful. Ha, I wonder if I can open my eyes.

The interest of the onlookers grew stronger, the news spread further and further, and more and more people came, so many that the yard was completely blocked.

Ren Xiaoxu, the security captain beside Li Mingyuan, saw that it was almost time, and shouted again: "Okay, everyone inside, listen up, what you did was not a big deal. Tell me, how can you release the hostages?"

Then the thief shouted, "Let someone get out of the way. As long as no one blocks me, I will release the hostage."

Ren Xiaoxu looked at the impenetrable wall of people around him and laughed secretly in his heart, but said, "I'll ask someone to get out of the way now, you go out and take a look."

"Okay, I'll be out right away."

After the thief finished speaking, he cut the woman's neck with a palm knife.

The people outside the house only heard a woman's scream, and then the woman fell silent.

Li Mingyuan asked anxiously: "What did you do? Did you kill someone?"

"No, don't worry. There are two people here. I couldn't control them. I just knocked the woman unconscious. I'm controlling this man to get out now. Don't let anyone point a gun at me. If I see someone pointing a gun at me, I'll stab that person."

"Okay, I'll do what I say."

Inside the house, Li Huaide kept begging for mercy in a low voice: "Brother, brother, please, let me go, I will give you money, a lot of money."

Seeing that the thief refused, he said, "I can also arrange a job for you so that you will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life."

The thief sneered and said, "You don't have to worry about food and drink. I just let you go and you've got me."

"No, I won't. Just let me go, and you'll have money and a job. I swear. If I..."

"Snapped."

Unexpectedly, before Li Huaide could finish his words, he was slapped hard in the face, which made him shut up.

"Hurry up, I'll give you some face and let you put on your pants. If you don't get out, I'll kill you with a knife."

Li Huaide was about to resist, but the knife was pressed against his back. Then he heard the thief say, "If you don't want to lose your back, get out now."

"No, no, we don't have any deep hatred."

After saying that, he quickly put on his trousers and slowly took a step forward. As a result, the thief grabbed his neck and pushed him towards the door.

"Wow..."

When Li Huaide appeared at the door, there was an uproar in the courtyard. Some were surprised, some were disgusted, some were insulting, and some were gloating. Many women even covered their eyes pretending to be serious, but secretly watched through gaps between their fingers.

Li Mingyuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It was settled. Li Huaide was completely doomed.

Thinking of this, he was like a spectator, smiling, looking forward to what would happen next.

"Ah, I know this person. He's the director of the steel mill. I didn't expect that he would get together with Widow Wu."

"Indeed, I know him, too."

Okay, now the identity is confirmed.

Li Huaide, who had been pampered for many years, had little strength left in his body. He was strangled by the thief by the neck and could not put up any resistance. He appeared directly at the door. When he saw the dark crowd outside, he felt blood rushing to his brain and fainted from fright. His body fell to the ground like a sack.

The masked thief did not react. When Li Huaide slid to the ground, he wanted to reach out and grab him. However, Li Huaide's body was slippery and he missed. Besides, with his strength, he could not lift the weight of a grown fat man.

At this time, the armed police officer shouted again: "Put your hands up, or I will shoot."

Without a hostage, the thief had no choice but to drop the knife in his hand and raised his hands high. At this time, someone came forward and immediately handcuffed him. Two policemen controlled his arms and pulled him out of the yard. From beginning to end, the mask on the thief's face was not taken off. So many people had no idea who he was.

Ren Xiaoxu looked at the crowd and asked, "Is the street women's director here?"

"exist."

A middle-aged woman shouted from behind.

"There is another woman in the house. Please take two people and help her put clothes on."

"Ok."

After the three female comrades put on their women's clothes, a policeman helped Li Huaide put on his pants and clothes without any instructions.

"Captain, when searching for stolen goods, we found a large amount of gold, silver dollars, calligraphy and paintings hidden in this yard."

"Wake them up and interrogate them as soon as possible."

"Yes".

At this time, the cadres of the neighborhood committee also rushed over and attended the interrogation. After only half an hour, the result came out.

The widow Wu Qian did not resist at all and explained everything clearly.

After her husband died, because of her beautiful appearance, she was introduced to her cousin Li Huaide by Li Huairen and became his lover. Also, because her house had a courtyard house with one entrance and was relatively secluded, Li Huaide left some of the treasures he seized from other people's houses with her for temporary safekeeping.

Moreover, the woman confessed that she had seen with her own eyes that Li Huaide took away three of the calligraphy and paintings. She had inadvertently asked him why he took them away, and Li Huaide said that he was honoring his father-in-law. The painting she remembered most clearly was called "Spring Mountain Companion".

The woman's confession was very thorough, which was not surprising. However, Li Huaide's confession was also very thorough, which made people very confused.

Apart from refusing to admit that he had given gifts to his father-in-law, he was completely ignorant of the rest of the truth. It is rare to see such poor willpower for a leader of a large company.

He had not originally mentioned the fact that he had sent calligraphy and paintings to his father-in-law, but when he heard that Wu Qian had confessed it, he admitted it. Perhaps he did not think that these people could touch his father-in-law.

However, in order to make money, he would do anything to frame others. If he does something wrong on the first day, he should allow others to do the fifteenth day. Isn't society supposed to pursue fairness and justice?

"If we ask this guy more detailed questions, he will probably tell us how old he was when he stopped wetting the bed. If this kind of guy is caught by the enemy in wartime, he will definitely be a traitor."

Li Mingyuan looked at the detailed confession and said bitterly.
