A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 89 There Are Many Smart People

When Liu Weijun heard Chen Jiaojiao only talk about money but not tickets, he felt that something must have happened in her family. Otherwise, why would she only talk about money but not tickets?

After all, in this era, many things cannot be bought without tickets, because many things only accept tickets, not money.

However, given that there is no substantial evidence to prove it, and this is just my own speculation, I cannot produce specific evidence for open questioning and accountability.

Of course, whether Chen Jiaojiao's family was in trouble or not had little to do with him. The biggest relationship might be that she was crossed out from the list of options for his backup girlfriend.

After all, Chen Jiaojiao, apart from her family background which makes people wonder whether she is worthy of being associated with, and the fact that she is beautiful and has a good figure, there is nothing else that is worth redeeming about her.

He has an arrogant temper, spends money lavishly, and is often self-centered, not considering the feelings of others. He is not a good partner, or a good revolutionary comrade.

But Liu Weijun thought again, judging from the time Chen Jiaojiao had been here, her family was so rich, and they had raised such a high-profile and ostentatious child, which proved that there must be someone in the family who was confused. It was possible that she was reported by someone with ulterior motives, just like Chen Jiaojiao was stolen.

Maybe Chen Jiaojiao’s family was labeled as rightists, or even capitalists?

The more Liu Weijun thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Fortunately, Chen Jiaojiao paid back the money she had lent her. Otherwise, if his expenses for the past month or almost two months were really not repaid, he would not even be able to cry.

Although Chen Jiaojiao couldn't see Liu Weijun's current appearance, she knew that Liu Weijun probably guessed something, so he didn't continue the conversation. Now all that was missing was to confirm whether his guess was correct.

As for how much he could guess, it really depends on how fast Liu Weijun's brain can work, or how much he can think of in a row. After all, from the contact during this period of time, Liu Weijun's eyes are not only quick, but also likes to flatter the weak. I hope that Chen Jiaojiao's inexplicable enthusiasm will not be hit to pieces.

After Chen Jiaojiao came out of Liu Weijun's house, she went back to her own house to rest. After all, she had been busy all day and was tired.

Seeing Chen Jiaojiao go back to the room and lie on the kang to rest, Shen Jiaren sat on a stool, leaned against the wall, basking in the afternoon sun, and prepared to take a nap. After all, she had been running all day and was a little tired.

In fact, Shen Jiaren felt that the physical fatigue was okay, and she could rest for a while. The most important thing was the mental fatigue. Chen Jiaojiao was like a time bomb at this moment. Who knew when it would explode? Who knew how many people would be injured by this explosion, and how large the radiation area would be?

The most important thing is that I can't get away now. I have to wait until all the educated youths at the site have finished work before I can go and hand over the task to the team leader and say that I have completed the mission.

However, the team leader said that a village meeting would be held after work in the afternoon. I don’t know how the meeting went, nor do I know what the content of the meeting was. I don’t know if it has much to do with me.

After a while, Shen Jiaren was awakened by the educated youth who were leaving work.

Before Shen Jiaren saw the people from the educated youth center come in, she heard their voices talking, so Shen Jiaren was woken up.

Because the educated youth who went to work were chattering and discussing things on the way back to the educated youth site, and their voices were quite loud.

From far to near, from vague to clear, Shen Jiaren listened intermittently about what advanced collectives there were, what qualifications there were for workers, peasants and soldiers, what food and meat distribution there was, and so on.

Shen Jiaren was half asleep and half awake, so she only understood half of what she heard.

When the educated youth who had just finished work pushed open the door of the educated youth site, they saw Shen Jiaren sitting on a stool, rubbing her eyes, and looking at everyone as if she had just woken up.

When the educated youth who had just finished work saw Shen Jiaren like this, they couldn't help but feel curious. Didn't they say that they would go to the town's public security bureau with Chen Jiaojiao to cooperate with the investigation? Then why was Shen Jiaren sitting at Chen Jiaojiao's door and sleeping? Didn't it mean that Chen Jiaojiao had returned?

Thinking of this, the educated youth gathered at Chen Jiaojiao's door, wanting to ask about the progress of Chen Jiaojiao's theft case, but due to the closeness of the relationship and the difference between men and women, they just stood outside and did nothing.

In fact, the people at the Youth League Center thought it was okay to ask Shen Jiaren, but since the owner was there, asking the owner might be more respectful? Or, in other words, they could get first-hand information?

But Song Xiangxue, Liu Mei and Xu Hongxia didn't have so many considerations, especially Xu Hongxia, who simply pushed the door open and walked in. After all, this was her own house, and it was more natural and justified for her to enter her own room.

Song Xiangxue and Liu Mei followed Xu Hongxia into Xu Hongxia and Chen Jiaojiao's room.

The moment Xu Hongxia pushed the door, Chen Jiaojiao was also awakened by the sound and said in a bad tone, "Can't you open the door quietly? What if someone is sleeping?"

Xu Hongxia laughed out of anger when she heard this. In the past, she had taken care of everything for Chen Jiaojiao's subsidized food rations and for Chen Jiaojiao's occasional improved meals. She also tolerated Chen Jiaojiao's temper as much as possible.

But now, because of Chen Jiaojiao's high-profile behavior, he was implicated and lost his money. In addition, after he opened the door just now, he looked around the house first. This time, Chen Jiaojiao came back from the town without buying anything.

If it were the same as in the past, every time Chen Jiaojiao went to town, she would always buy a lot of things. Either it was to improve her life and she could benefit from it, or Chen Jiaojiao bought something delicious and she could only pretend not to know and watch Chen Jiaojiao eat it secretly.

Now, I have nothing, and she still expects me to go along with her?

I’m afraid Chen Jiaojiao is thinking about good things, right?

Thinking of this, Xu Hongxia directly retorted, "What's wrong? How can you open the door if you don't push it open?

There is a sound when the door is opened, do you think it will be silent like when something is stolen?"

Chen Jiaojiao felt wronged when she heard what Xu Hongxia said. In the past, Xu Hongxia pretended to be deaf and blind, couldn't hear her calling her or couldn't see her cleaning up, and wanted her to give orders, but she had never been so direct. What's more, she also continued to criticize her. She couldn't help but said aggrievedly, "Then you can also keep your voice down? Why didn't you open the door so loudly before?

Why is it so loud now?"

Xu Hongxia laughed when she heard what Chen Jiaojiao said. She really gave him face, but he still had the nerve to bring up the past? Whenever she thought about the money she had saved with great effort and was lost because of Chen Jiaojiao, she couldn't help but get furious and wanted to fight back.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Song Xiangxue quickly pulled Xu Hongxia's clothes and said, "Okay, okay, everyone is tired after a day's work and is a little angry. Just keep quiet."

When Xu Hongxia saw Song Xiangxue like this, she thought Song Xiangxue was taking sides, so she wanted to slap Song Xiangxue's hand that was pulling her clothes away, and wanted to say a few more words to retort.

Unexpectedly, Song Xiangxue grabbed her arm directly this time and said to Chen Jiaojiao, "Chen Zhiqing, what was the result of your cooperation with the investigation at the Public Security Bureau this morning?"

When Xu Hongxia heard that Song Xiangxue had asked the key point, she stopped talking and prepared to listen carefully to Chen Jiaojiao's answer. After all, the most critical matter now was Chen Jiaojiao's theft.

When Chen Jiaojiao heard that Song Xiangxue was concerned about her, she quickly replied happily, "I have cooperated with the police to find the license plate of my bicycle, and the name registered on the license plate of the Public Security Bureau is my name.

The Public Security Bureau means that now they just have to wait for the bicycle to show up. Once the bicycle shows up, they can follow the clues to find the thief."

After hearing what Chen Jiaojiao said, Song Xiangxue pondered for a while and felt that it would be a bit difficult for the public security comrades to solve this matter. She still had to use the wisdom of the masses. After all, it was impossible for people to leave no traces. Now it depends on who can find the traces.

But she couldn't make these words public. After all, whether or not the thief could be caught might also affect her own interests.

Then he said to Chen Jiaojiao, "Is that so? That's good, it means the possibility of your money being returned is quite high."

Chen Jiaojiao felt even happier when she heard Song Xiangxue say that. After all, it was about things and banknotes worth less than a thousand yuan. So she said to Song Xiangxue, "Really? Do you think so too? Song Zhiqing, you are so kind."

When Shen Jiaren heard the conversation inside the room, she instantly found it a little funny. This person was really easily moved, the typical person who only remembered the food but not the beating. After being comforted a few times, she forgot that this person had embezzled the things given to her by others.

However, Shen Jiaren was also very curious about what was discussed in the meeting. Although Song Xiangxue was a kind-hearted person, she would not be so proactive in contacting Chen Jiaojiao after what happened in the morning. Fear of being implicated by the thief was one point, but more importantly, she was found to have embezzled the things she had given to Chen Jiaojiao. This embarrassment or this matter would not be so easy to get over, right?

After all, Song Xiangxue values ​​her reputation so much. It’s impossible that she could get over the slap in the face this morning so quickly, right?

Although Shen Jiaren was very curious about what had happened that made her let bygones be bygones, she didn't say a word. Like the other educated youth standing in the yard, she tried her best to remain still and listen to the conversation inside the house.

Song Xiangxue then asked, "Did the police say that there is a good chance of solving this case?"

Chen Jiaojiao replied, "The police said that this depends on the collection of evidence. If we just wait, we will be passive.

Because the bicycle may be able to leave the town or even the province, it depends on what kind of gang the theft is.

Is it occasionally or collectively or in groups?"

When Song Xiangxue heard this, she realized that there was little hope. The possibility of a gang was also mentioned, so she asked curiously, "What do you mean by gang? What do you mean by occasional, collective, or group?"

Chen Jiaojiao was even happier when she heard Song Xiangxue ask this. It turned out that she was not alone here and was also cared for by others. She answered more actively, "It depends on the nature of the thief.

If it happens occasionally, it means he is not someone who does this often, but he only takes action when he has a goal or a need.

If it happens in a group, two or three people will form a small group and steal.

As for the gang, it is relatively large. There are people who specialize in stealing, people who specialize in transporting, and people who specialize in selling stolen goods, forming a complete business chain.

So now we have to see how the theft will be characterized.”

Song Xiangxue, Liu Mei, and Xu Hongxia all sighed after hearing what Chen Jiaojiao said.

When Shen Jiaren saw that the educated youth outside the yard all showed disappointed expressions, she became even more curious about what was going on.

When the educated youth standing in the yard heard this, they dispersed and went about their own business.

Song Xiangxue and Liu Mei, who were in Chen Jiaojiao and Xu Hongxia's room, said to Chen Jiaojiao, "Then you should have a good rest." Then they walked out and returned to their own room.

Shen Jiaren looked at the actions of the crowd and felt a bit like monkeys scattering when the tree falls. She just didn't know what this tree was.

Shen Jiaren saw that the educated youth at the educated youth point had returned to their posts and were doing their own things, so she prepared to go to the team leader to talk and she was also ready to finish work and go home.

As a result, before Shen Jiaren could get up from the stool, she heard the sound of quarreling coming from Chen Jiaojiao's room.

"Xu Zhiqing, go and cook quickly. You didn't prepare food when you got home from work. Are you planning to starve me to death?" Chen Jiaojiao said to Xu Hongxia.

When Xu Hongxia heard Chen Jiaojiao still bossing her around like that, she retorted, "Where are your rations?"

When Chen Jiaojiao heard what Xu Hongxia said, she quickly said, "I just came back and haven't had time to go to the brigade to buy rations. You take out your rations first and have a meal. After you finish eating, I will go buy some. You can eat mine tomorrow."

When Xu Hongxia heard what Chen Jiaojiao said, her face drooped even more, and she said in a bad tone, "Chen Zhiqing, we agreed that I would cook and take care of all the housework on the premise that you would subsidize the food and other things, but now you don't even have any food.

I have to pay for your food, why should I cook for you?

What, you want to get something for nothing???"

Chen Jiaojiao felt a little embarrassed when she heard Xu Hongxia say that. This was indeed what they had discussed before, but she was hit too hard today. She came back to pay back the money first, and she was so happy after paying it back that she just took a rest and forgot to go to the brigade to buy rations. She was indeed a little unreasonable in this matter, so she replied in a weak tone, "I've been busy all day and forgot. Besides, I told you that I'll go to the brigade to buy rations later. It's the same if you eat with my rations tomorrow morning."

Xu Hongxia found it a bit funny when she heard this. Chen Jiaojiao really thought she had no brains.

In the past, when the money and notes given by Chen Jiaojiao's parents arrived, there would definitely be a package coming. Even if there was no package, Chen Jiaojiao would go to the town to buy a bunch of things and bring them back in big and small bags.

Especially since she finally got to the town, Chen Jiaojiao would definitely buy some meat to eat. But when she came back from the town this time, not only was there no bags or meat, but she didn't even have any food.

Not to mention that I saw with my own eyes Chen Jiaojiao borrowing money from Liu Weijun to buy fine grains at noon today. It's been the whole afternoon and the fine grains have not arrived yet. Doesn't this make people think deeply?
