Chapter 99 Returning late at night
On New Year’s Eve, when CCTV’s New Year’s Party ended, it was already very late.
Only then did everyone realize that the ground was already white and there was heavy snow in the sky. It was a cold winter night. The sound of firecrackers that began to sound in the countryside and the enthusiastic laughter of some young people who were not sleeping in the house seemed to dispel the chill.
The urban and rural areas have long been dressed in festive costumes. Colorful flags and red lanterns are hung above the city streets. The advertising boxes on both sides of the street are brightly lit, and neon advertisements emit dazzling light. Some people also have big red lanterns hanging in front of the courtyard doors of the courtyards, dotted with star-like lights, which complement the snow. The nights in the urban and rural areas show a strange prosperity in front of them.
A black Audi quietly drove into Yuanxiaomiao Village in Gugong Town on a snowy night. The car was Yuan Ergou who was taken away by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection yesterday.
Soon, the car drove into the door of Yuan Ergou's house. After getting off the car, Yuan Ergou and the driver made a few polite words, then turned around and left.
Yuan Ergou looked through the iron gate and looked at his yard. It was dark, with only a faint light in the room. Just when Yuan Ergou wanted to call the door, he watched his black dog run out of the room, climb on the iron gate, wagging his tail, making a "whimper" sound, as if he had just met another friend.
Yuan Ergou stroked the dog's head through the iron door. Just as he was about to knock on the door, the light inside the room suddenly turned on. At the same time, the door of the main hall opened, and he watched Yuan Enmin standing in front of the door in a yellow coat and looking out.
At this moment, Yuan Ergou looked at his father's figure and couldn't help but blur his eyes with tears, as if a child who was wronged outside was seeing his parents.
"Is it a puppy?" Looking at the figures outside the yard, against the white snow, Yuan Enmin vaguely felt that his son had returned, and asked in a trembling voice.
Yuan Ergou wiped his tears and agreed softly: "Dad, it's me."
"You kid is finally back," After listening to Yuan Ergou's reply, Yuan Enmin said, "Old woman, my son is back,"
As Yuan Enmin finished speaking, the lights in the three rooms suddenly lit up. Yuan Ergou thought secretly: "Why is the lights in my room also lit up?"
Yuan Enmin walked a few steps to the front door, picked up the key and opened the door. Yuan Ergou looked at his father's figure and said guiltily: "Dad, your child has made you worry,"
"Oh," Yuan Enmin sighed and said, "Son, although I don't know what happened, as long as I can be safe,"
This comes from an old man’s heart and minimum expectations for his children.
Yuan Ergou walked into the room with his father with his things, and watched his mother walk out of the room with her clothes.
"Mom?" Yuan Ergou choked up. In fact, Yuan Ergou didn't want to make his parents sad, but he still couldn't hold it back and tears flowed out again.
Yuan Ergou's mother looked at Yuan Ergou and was also full of tears. She walked to her son's side, held her shoulder with both hands, looked at Yuan Ergou and said, "Child, you are finally back, your father and I have been worried about you,"
Since Jiang Qingqing called in the morning, Yuan Enmin and his wife felt something was wrong. His daughter-in-law, who had never been to the house, called Yuan Ergou, which means they didn't know about Yuan Ergou's whereabouts. You said they didn't know, who could still know?
Besides, when I finished lunch, Yuan Yingsong did not come to his house and talked about the phone. Instead, Yuan Jiefang came here in person. Judging from what Yuan Jiefang said and said, something must have happened to Yuan Ergou. Yuan Jiefang didn't say anything about it. Yuan Enmin and his wife couldn't guess it. He asked Yuan Jiefang, but Yuan Jiefang was also hesitant and did not say anything.
It was not until Yuan Ergou called back that Yuan Enmin and his wife's hearts slowly calmed down.
At this moment, the door of the room I slept with was opened, and I saw Xiuzi standing in front of the door wearing pajamas and holding the child. Judging from her expression, she must have cried.
Yuan Ergou's heart was as if he was shattering at the moment. During the Chinese New Year, his parents and Xiuzi were worried about him and how could he bear it. He not only said in his heart that as long as I found out who was framed by me, how could I spare you? I never messed with others for personal matters. If anyone provoked me, I would make him pay a ten, no, a hundred times, a thousand times the price.
Xiuzi looked at Yuan Ergou silently for a long time, without saying a word, because due to the presence of her parents, Yuan Ergou just nodded slightly to Xiuzi.
"You go to the house to rest, don't freeze the child," Yuan Ergou's mother looked at Yuan Ergou and Xiuzi's eyes, hurriedly walked to Xiuzi, tucked her clothes and said to Xiuzi in a low voice.
Xiuzi still didn't say anything. From his eyes, he could see how much he cared for Yuan Ergou, and he would never be less concerned than his parents. After listening to Yuan Ergou's mother, Xiuzi slowly carried the child and turned into the room.
After Xiuzi entered the house, Yuan Enmin looked at Yuan Ergou's mother and said, "Go and cook some food. It's a cold day. It's time for the little dog to walk so far, so it's time to be hungry."
"Dad, mom, I'm not hungry," Yuan Ergou said hurriedly.
"Oh, I just have to forget everything about cooking,"
Yuan Ergou's mother didn't seem to hear Yuan Ergou's words. After saying that, she hurried into the kitchen. When Yuan Enmin was about to go to the kitchen, she watched Xiuzi put on her clothes, walked out of the room, and walked into the kitchen silently.
Yuan Ergou knew that he could not stop his mother from cooking, so he stopped saying unnecessary words and sat down with his father.
"Dad, I'll ask you something," Yuan Ergou said after sitting down.
Yuan Enmin knew that his son was going to talk about something, so he took out a cigarette and lit a piece of it, and then said, "You can tell me what the puppy is,"
Yuan Ergou thought about it and knew that there was nothing that could not be beaten. Today, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection did not do anything to himself, which means that the country has not forgotten itself, and said that he had never done anything other than a few women, so he did not have any guilt.
So at this moment he felt that there was no need to hide his parents, but when he was speaking, he could just avoid the important things. From his parents' eyes, Yuan Ergou had already explained that although his parents didn't know what he had done, one thing was certain, that was, he knew something had happened to him.
"Dad, I wasn't at home some time ago. Has anyone given me something?" Yuan Ergou said hesitantly.
“Sending things is giving gifts,”
"right,"
"I've come so many times. Let me tell you the truth. My mother and I confiscate each other. In the end, as long as I see the car parked in front of our house, I usually don't open the door," Yuan Enmin told the truth without considering it.
Listening to his father's words, Yuan Ergou nodded and said in his heart, it seems that someone was deliberately framed himself. Their thinking is that as long as you look at you, you don't believe it, you can't find out your problem. Yuan Ergou sneered in his heart and said in his heart that their abacus may be useful for others. In my opinion, it seems that it will be invalid.
However, in order to be cautious, Yuan Ergou took a puff of cigarette and said, "Dad, think about it, there are no men with a low head, chubby face, a little black on their cheeks," he said.
After Yuan Ergou finished speaking, Yuan Enmin frowned. After thinking for a long time, suddenly, Liu Simao's son Liu Hu once led a man with a look similar to what Yuan Ergou said, but he was not sure if it was him. Yuan Enmin did not hide anything from his son, so he led Liu Hu to Zhou Peihong in all kinds of things, basically not even missed every detail, and told Yuan Ergou all about it.
After hearing Yuan Enmin's words, Yuan Ergou's expression began to become serious and said secretly. It seemed that the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection was not groundless. He seemed to have some evidence. Fortunately, he did not get over it with the people from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. If that were the case, he would be in real trouble.
He knew that in order to severely punish corruption such as money and power transactions, the National People's Congress Standing Committee began the third trial of the Criminal Law Amendment (VII) to expand the scope of application of the crime of accepting bribes and include non-state employees as the subject of criminal offenses. According to this provision, families and people around the state employees who are on duty or resigning will be held criminally responsible if they use the influence of state employees' positions to solicit bribes.
The current Criminal Law of the People's Republic of my country stipulates the crime of state employees using their powers or status to seek improper benefits for the requestor, but in real life, the spouses, children and other close relatives of some state employees, as well as other people close to them, seek improper benefits for the requestor through the actions of the staff of the state, or the convenient conditions formed by their powers or status, solicit or accept property from them themselves. In addition, some state employees who have resigned use their influence during their employment to seek improper benefits for the requestor, and demand or accept property from them themselves.
In view of this, the draft amendment to the Criminal Law (VII) has added new clauses, and will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years, not more than three years and not more than seven years, and fines or confiscation of property according to the amount of property requested or accepted by the entrusted person and the severity of the circumstances.
Yuan Ergou paused for a while, slowly raised his head and looked at his father, and whispered: "Dad, where is the thing he gave?"
Yuan Enmin stood up and walked into Yuan Ergou's house. [Please collect, recommend, flowers, VIPs, comments, stamps, subscribe, click]
