Yan Chu was sitting on the bus, because it was not the rush hour, and there were very few passengers on the bus, but without exception, many people avoided him and sat, for no reason, just because of the sadness and pain surrounding him at this time. The atmosphere makes people feel that maybe this young man has encountered something sad. Anyway, there are so many places in the car, and no one wants to disturb him.
The appearance of the original body in this life is not beautiful, at most it can only be said that the facial features are correct and pleasing to the eye, and Yan Chu tidies himself up neatly, which looks like a passer-by. Someone will pay more attention.
However, when Yan Chu recalled the memory of the original body, it resonated with many worlds he had experienced. The appearance is still the same, but it makes people feel that the senses are much more complicated for no reason, like a book with a plain cover but rich content. Books make people want to find out the urge.
Generally speaking, it's just that the appearance is not good enough, and the temperament is enough. At this time, there was a girl on the bus paying attention to Yan Chu, and secretly took a picture of the young man sitting in the window of the back seat of the bus with her mobile phone.
After doing this, she regretted it a little. Speaking of which, it was an infringement of other people's portrait rights, but the photo was taken perfectly. At the moment of shooting, a beam of sunlight fell on the car window, and half of Yan Chu's face reflected The sun is warm, and the other half of the face is the shadow of the carriage.
It's as if light and evil are competing on one person at the same time, but it doesn't make people afraid, but I feel distressed for no reason. I always feel that he should be a sunny young man. layer shadows.
The girl bit her lip, but she still kept the photo in the photo album after all. Anyway, she and the young man at the back of the car passed this bus, and there will be no intersection in the future. As long as she doesn't spread this photo, You don't have to worry about affecting the life of the other party because you took pictures of the other party privately.
After making up her mind, the girl turned off her mobile phone and stopped turning her head to look at the young man at the back of the car.
*****
Yan Chu didn't know about this little episode that happened on the bus. After arriving at the company, he first went to the office to pack up some of his belongings, and because he left too quickly, Santana's car keys were still left in the office .
"You said that the police have come to the door. Did Yan Chu hit that old lady?"
Before Yan Chu entered the door, he heard the voices of colleagues discussing from the office, and the topic of discussion was around him.
"I don't think so. Brother Yan is not that kind of person. If he really hit the old lady, he would never deny it. On the contrary, I believe that he was blackmailed by the old man because he saved an injured old man. , who made him such a good person, the first reaction when considering a matter is whether this matter should be done, not what the possible consequences of doing such a thing will be. "
The one who spoke for Yan Chu was the male colleague who specially brought him sweet potatoes, because Yan Chu once introduced a reliable old Chinese doctor to his father, and took the initiative to bring him into the circle of colleagues when the other party just came to the company , has always been grateful to him.
Speaking of which, the colleagues in this entire office have more or less been helped by Yuan Bo, but there may not be many who are as sincerely grateful as that male colleague.
Just like now.
"That's not necessarily the case. When I passed by President Wang's office just now, I heard President Wang call. What he said meant that Yan Chu was temporarily suspended without pay, and he came back to work after he finished handling this matter."
The person who was talking was the man sitting at the desk opposite Yan Chu. The other party was relatively old, and he was considered a veteran in this office. It was just because his work ability was not outstanding, he had worked for more than ten years, and he still stayed in his old position. Just because of his seniority, his colleagues in the office usually respect him more.
He said with some insight into the truth: "Do you think there is any evidence from the police? After all, Yan Chu is the backbone of our office. Didn't there be news a few years ago that our director might let Yan Chu be the director after being promoted?" Is he lacking, this is enough to show that the leaders attach great importance to him, but now that he is allowed to take a vacation, he will take a vacation, is it possible that there is nothing tricky?"
"I see, maybe it was him who bumped into that old lady." The middle-aged man made a concluding speech, not at all aware that this man has always admired Yan Chu a lot on weekdays, and everyone before and after said about him kind words.
Unlike Yan Chu, who is unmarried, he is middle-aged and has one son. Not long ago, he responded to the government's call to have a second child. The man’s wife hurried back to work as soon as she was confinement, and the old man had no help at home. Housework and children’s education and transportation to and from school were shared by both husband and wife.
Therefore, often the company still has unfinished work, but it is time to pick up the children to and from school.
At this time, men will find free colleagues to help. More often, the person being troubled will only be the original person, because the other party does not have a girlfriend, and the arrangement after working hours is relatively the same. The temper is also the best. For such a The original body usually won't refuse the request.
The man who had received a lot of help from him in the past, but before everything was settled, he sentenced him to death with certainty, Yan Chu couldn't tell what it felt like.
Maybe this is human nature.
"Boss Wang really said that, no, I have to ask him."
Yan Chu could tell that the person who spoke this time was an older lady in the office. Her family had something to do with Party A of the company. She came to work in the company purely to pass the time. She didn't do practical things on weekdays. It's also very flattering, she can do whatever she likes.
The eldest sister has no hobbies, she just likes to chat about gossip in the company, who is dating who in the company, which boss and her female secretary seem to have an abnormal relationship, she is always the first to know.
Yuanshen didn't have much contact with the eldest sister, because he didn't like those who said some unfounded guesses behind their backs and spread them wantonly. But after all, they were in the same office. Sometimes the eldest sister needed help from others. I will try my best to help her.
In fact, there are not many things that the eldest sister asks others to help. Who will let her idle? At most, the company bought a typewriter with a slightly higher technological content. Well, after Yuanchen helped her two or three times, she also knew how to use it, so she wouldn't trouble Yuanchen anymore.
"The police just came and asked Xiao Chu to ask some questions. If there is evidence that he hit the person, he would have put him in handcuffs and taken him away. I'm sure Xiao Chu is not that kind of person. The company's treatment of him It's too cold for our employees, so I have to talk to Mr. Wang."
The eldest sister has the confidence, the order from the party A company she is related to supports half of the company's people, and Mr. Wang has to weigh it himself if he wants to wear small shoes for her.
Besides, the conditions of her family do not depend on her current pitiful salary at all. Even if this company can no longer stay, she can still drink tea at home, plant flowers, and live an old-age retirement life in advance. If it is really boring , and relying on relationships to enter a new company and start a new gossip journey is also an easy task.
"Sister, I heard that the old lady was hit and disabled, so the compensation is absolutely indispensable. Maybe Yan Chu has never experienced such a thing, so after sending the old man to the hospital and listening to the doctor's illness I was scared off, made a mistake and told a lie."
The middle-aged man does not deny Yan Chu's kindness, but kindness is also limited in scope. Faced with hundreds of thousands or even more compensation, Yan Chu panicked, that is also a possibility.
"Hey, what do you mean?"
The eldest sister asked the man with her hands on her hips, why did he think that Yan Chu must have bumped into someone
It's a good thing that Yan Chu still helps him all the time on weekdays, and co-authored to help out a white-eyed wolf. This means that Yan Chu will not return to the company to work in the future, so he will kill the donkey in advance
Why didn't I see that he was such a thing before.
"Let's not talk about whether he bumped into someone or not, let's talk about him helping the elderly. Let's assume that he is really just doing good deeds to help the elderly, not because he hit the elderly himself." The middle-aged man spoke.
"What is a hypothesis is a fact."
The eldest sister overturned the assumption of the middle-aged man unwillingly.
"Okay, okay."
Because of the special status of the eldest sister, the man didn't want to offend her, so he followed her words and said perfunctorily: "Do you think the old man can afford it now? The car was driving, and I didn't see people parking to cause this trouble. Besides, he helped people, so he couldn't take precautions in advance. The car didn't have a driving recorder, so he couldn't use his mobile phone to shoot a video first, and then Get off the bus? You need to use your brain to do good deeds, not everyone can do good deeds."
The man talked about the big reasons of the rules, and he was very dissatisfied with Yan Chu's way of coping, and also a little disdainful.
Seeing that it has been said in the news now, don’t carelessly help the elderly if you don’t have a lot of property, and you don’t know how the conditions of Yan Chu’s family are. Thinking of Yan Chu’s new car that hasn’t been in the company for a long time, the man is silent in his heart pondering.
"I didn't hit the person. Similarly, I don't think there is anything wrong with helping the elderly." Yan Chu walked in without knocking on the door, which shocked the colleagues in the office.
Especially the middle-aged man who said bad things about him just now, is especially embarrassed. No one wants to be caught by the right person when he speaks small things behind his back.
"Ah Chu, you're still young, sometimes it's not scary to make mistakes, but what's scary is getting into a dead end and refusing to repent."
Some people will feel ashamed if they say bad things about people behind their backs, and some people, because of extreme shame, want to prove that those small things they said are true, in order to prove that they dare to say even in front of the righteous Lord Those words will also increase the volume, emphasizing the words that were said before, as if in this way, his words are the truth.
That man was obviously the latter, because he knew that Yan Chu had heard everything he said, so he didn't shy away from it, and began to teach him a lesson in front of him.
"I said, I didn't bump into people."
Yan Chu emphasized once again that his face was no longer the easy-going kindness of the past, and he was calm and indifferent.
"Even if you didn't hit it, can't you think about it before doing something good? Have you ever considered that if you do a good thing on a whim, there may be many consequences."
Seeing Yan Chu dismissing his words in front of so many colleagues in the company, the man was very dissatisfied. Anyway, it has reached this point, so he simply tore his face and loudly expressed his incomprehension about his behavior of helping people.
Leaving aside those previous remarks, I just talked about my views on Yan Chu's helping people. There are still many people in the company who agree with the middle-aged man's words. In fact, this is also the mainstream view in society now.
The "Peng Yu case" shocked the whole country at the beginning. Because of the loss of the police records at the time of the incident and the over-exaggeration of the media in the later period, the rhetoric "good people do not get rewarded for doing good deeds" became very popular, and public opinion overwhelmingly supported Peng Yu. It’s not easy to do” and “Judicial injustice” can be seen almost everywhere on the Internet, in newspapers and on TV.
Of course, in this case, the most famous one is the judgment of the judge who presided over the case at that time, "If you don't accidentally injure her, you won't send her to the hospital", which almost immediately detonated the entire Internet. Some people said that it was because This sentence, this case, caused the moral standard of the people of Huaguo to return to fifty years ago, which was a devastating blow to the moral standard of the country name.
Even if Peng Yu later admitted that he did have a physical collision with the old lady at the time of the incident, it was not enough to restore the situation that had reached its peak.
Because of the confidentiality clause of the mediation agreement between the two parties, it is impossible to consider who is at fault, but the famous words of this judge have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In addition, the media have successively reported various news about being blackmailed for doing good deeds, which led to Ordinary people avoid such things, for fear of trouble finding themselves.
Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, don't care about others' roofs, this is the most reasonable saying left by the ancestors, and it is even more believed in now when morality is lacking.
But is this really correct
"I help the elderly because she needs help, and now she is framing me, and that is her fault."
Yan Chu looked at the man and said, "When I was blackmailed and wronged, you blamed me the first time, because I didn't take the necessary precautions before helping the elderly, and I can't say it's all your fault. It can only be said that this society is wrong.”
Since when, the most normal behavior in the past has been regarded as a scourge by people.
Ten or twenty years ago, an old man fell down on the road, and a group of people stepped forward to help him, shouting loudly that he was robbed, and a group of people helped chase the thief, who would dare to touch women in broad daylight? , as long as they are discovered, a beating is always inevitable.
But now, people are indifferent, and everyone only thinks of being wise and safe.
Little do you know that if you let this kind of thinking continue to develop, one day, when you are lying on the cold road, all you can see are figures leaving you indifferently, howling loudly, and you You will only find that you and those pedestrians seem to be in two worlds. No matter how loud your pleas are, those people will just pretend that they can't hear anything.
So, no matter how you evaluate Yuan Bo's behavior, you can't say he was wrong, because kindness itself is not wrong, only those who take advantage of other people's kindness are wrong.
"What's the use of you talking to me? If you have the ability to talk to the old lady who blackmailed you, anyway, the trouble is that you are not with me. If you don't listen to my advice, you can do as you please."
The middle-aged man said with a blushing face, and then returned to his seat, facing the keyboard for a while, as if concentrating on his work.
Under the complicated eyes of his colleagues, Yan Chu returned to his place and simply packed his things, then took the car keys and left.
"Brother Yan, I believe in you."
"Xiao Chu, don't worry, I'll talk to Mr. Wang later."
Before Yan Chu left, those colleagues who supported him comforted him and cheered him up.
Yan Chu's words just touched them a lot. At first, even though they believed that Yan Chu hadn't hit anyone, they also thought that Yan Chu shouldn't help people. But after listening to Yan Chu's words, they turned around and thought- Since when did people become so indifferent
Since when has doing good deeds become synonymous with asking for trouble
Although these words touched everyone a lot, but considering the current national conditions, I am afraid that when they meet an old man who needs help on the road, they still don't have the courage to help them, or in other words, they don't have the guarantee that they will not get into trouble. Down, there is no courage to help them.
It is precisely because of this that it can highlight Yan Chu's invaluability. If this is stupid, stupid, if there are more stupid people like him in the world, maybe there will be more peace.
*****
These days, the Yan family has a rare respite, because the determination of the responsibility for the car accident is coming soon, and according to the local customs, the period from July to July is extremely important for people who died in other places, busy choosing graves and burying their children Well, the people who were in charge of the funeral didn't spare any energy to trouble Yan Yinsheng's family for the time being.
Similarly, Xu Shufen did not inform Yan Yinsheng, Yan Tian's uncle, about Yan Tian's funeral. The relationship between the two families was completely broken because of Yan Tian's death and Xu Shufen's messing around.
Because they knew that this matter would never end, even though it was rare to stop these days, Yan Yinsheng and Du Juan were not in a good state of mind, and they all aged a lot.
"Why did you come back so early?"
On this day, Du Juan and Yan Yinsheng were rarely in the mood to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. They also specially bought a live rooster to make soup for their son at night. When they saw Yan Chu who had returned home early, they asked suspiciously.
"I asked for a period of leave from the company. These days, I will rest at home." Yan Chu said to his parents, with a relaxed expression, without showing the slightest sign of sadness.
Now everything is in his plan, the only one who owes is the old couple in front of him, and he has to suffer again with him, so he doesn't want to make the old couple anxious because of his suspension of pay .
Especially mother Du Juan, she is the one who blames herself the most in the family these days. In her previous life, due to successive blows, she had developed dementia. Tragedy repeated itself.
Therefore, these days, he has been paying attention to the emotions of the couple.
"It's good to have a rest." Du Juan didn't doubt her son's words, but felt that it was her fault for borrowing the car after all, otherwise such absurd things would have happened if her son went to work properly.
"Mom, while I have a rare long vacation, the girl you favored me before will go out to have a meal everywhere. Maybe I can get you a daughter-in-law now."
What worries Du Juan the most is her son's marriage. If Yan Chu had said these words earlier, the old lady would have been absolutely beautiful, but now it is different. It is obviously a happy event, but she can't even laugh.
Du Juan is not stupid, why can't she see that her son took the initiative to mention the blind date, and she is afraid that she is thinking wildly.
"How can a girl be so easy to find? Mom will search for you later."
Du Juan forced a smile. In this situation, she is not in the mood to think about her son's lifelong affairs. How to deal with the troubles in front of her is the most important thing.
*****
A group of people gathered in the Jiang family's house. If Yan Chu and others were present at this time, they would have recognized them. Basically, all the people who went to his house to make trouble that day were gathered together, including Xu Shufen and Yan Jinsheng who were also present.
The Jiang family was the family that almost became in-laws with Xu Shufen. Jiang Lin was the only daughter of the Jiang family. When she died, the whole family was gloomy and cast a shadow.
Jiang's father left early, and Lin Fumei regarded her only daughter as her reliance in her later years. Now that her daughter is dead, she is sad, and she turns the focus of her life to her brother Lin Fushou, who has the best relationship with her. Today's gathering , it was Lin Fushou who stopped him.
There was also a strange face present, the lawyer Lin Fushou had hired.
"So there's really nothing we can do about it?"
A group of people carefully asked the lawyer about the compensation for the car accident, and the answer they got was almost the same as what Yan Chu said that day. In this case, although the owner of the car was Yan Chu, he was not responsible for this case. , the issue of compensation does not involve him.
"We still have to wait for the results of the determination of responsibility by the traffic police team, but at present, it is really impossible for you to seek compensation from the owner of the car."
The lawyer looked gentle, wearing a suit and tie, gel on his hair, and gold-rimmed glasses. He looked very convincing. No one in the room questioned his ability.
"Besides, you also said that the owner of the car proposed the property rights protection law with you, which means that the owner of the car has some understanding of the current law. Since he knows that the law can protect his rights and interests, he will never compromise and give it to you. indemnity."
This matter has nothing to do with the owner of the car, on the contrary, the owner of the car fell into bad luck. Not to mention that the good car was completely scrapped, and he was targeted by a group of vampires in a life where the insurance did not know whether it would be able to pay normally. Bar.
But taking people's money and eliminating disasters with others, since the money from these families has been collected together, the lawyer must still help out with ideas.
"Lawyer Jiang, I don't know anything about property rights protection laws, but didn't there be similar news in the news before? A woman lent her car to a friend, and later a car accident killed her. Her friend was unable to pay back the debt. The woman As the owner of the car, she was asked to pay that money for her friend, how could it not work if the same thing happened to us?"
One anxious family member couldn't figure it out, aren't these two things exactly the same
They weren't fools either, they went to Yan Yinsheng's house to make trouble even though they knew it was impossible, wasn't it because there was a ready-made case before, that's why they were tempted.
"I've heard of that case." The lawyer nodded. That case was very famous. At that time, there was a lot of criticism on the Internet, all complaining about the injustice of justice. Already.
But in fact, the judgment in this case was not wronged at all.
"In that case, the driver's license of the driver who caused the accident had expired, and the owner of the car knew this clearly when she lent the car to her friend. Therefore, she was also at fault for the car accident, and naturally she should bear the responsibility. In the situation you encountered, Yan Tian, the deceased who was sitting in the driving seat at the time, had a driver's license and had many years of driving experience. The reason for borrowing the car was normal. It was for self-driving travel. God, it's completely reasonable and legal." The lawyer helped explain it in detail, and most of the people present looked at each other in blank dismay, they really didn't know there was such a reason in it.
Thinking about what Yan Chu said that day, it seems that there is a similar meaning in it.
It's different from the two cases, so wouldn't their work be in vain
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes focused on Xu Shufen and his wife again. Originally, their troubles with Yan Yinsheng's family were caused by the couple's misfortune. Can't let it go.
"Lawyer Jiang, you are an experienced barrister, so you can help us figure out a way. The car is indeed Yan Chu's, so we can't say that this matter has nothing to do with him. Besides, my son has been driving it for so many years. Nothing happened to his car, who knows if there is something wrong with his car."
Feeling the malicious gazes of everyone, Xu Shufen's heart shuddered, and she put her hope on this lawyer.
"It's not easy to talk nonsense. The traffic police team has not yet released the responsibility for the car accident, and the results of the vehicle inspection have not yet been released. If you want to say that there is a problem with the vehicle, this is untenable."
The lawyer shook his head: "Remember, if you want to legally recognize the responsibility of the car owner, you must prove that the car owner was at fault in the car accident, such as the previous case, or the other party knew that the person who borrowed the car was driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Possibility, still lent the car to him, etc., when the time comes, the court will order the other party to give you compensation."
These words had a lot of meaning, Xu Shufen fell silent, that is to say, Yan Chu must be at fault, this fault, whether it is true or not, how can one mouth tell clearly.
But Lin Fushou thought more, and when he sent that lawyer Jiang away, he secretly talked with him for a long time.
He just noticed that when Lawyer Jiang said that, he emphasized the word "law" in the law.
He wondered in his heart, is there any other way to force Yan Yinsheng's family to give money when the law does not recognize it
There are certain things that lawyers can’t say directly, because it’s easy to leave behind the words and affect future career development. Therefore, when the smart Lin Fushou sent Lawyer Jiang away, he asked him a lot of questions while no one was around. Most of them come around this case, playing around the edges, and some problems seem to have nothing to do with this case.
For example, what level of harassment will be punished, and what is the scope of gathering a crowd to make trouble, so that it will not attract the attention of the police. The lawyers who received Lin Fushou's red envelopes answered all of them. Each response details possible police responses.
Everyone is a smart person. Lin Fushou thought of another way because of the lawyer's suggestion. The lawyer was also very satisfied with the red envelope given by Lin Fushou. With his familiarity with the legal provisions, he opened the door for him to exploit legal loopholes.
From the beginning to the end, these two people, for their own benefit, never thought about why the innocent Yan Chu, who was calculated by them, should suffer this innocent disaster because of their greed.
*****
"Baozhu, isn't it good for us to do this, after all, that young man is really kind, you know, my injury—"
"You're crazy!"
In a certain ward of the hospital, the following conversation took place.
Zhang Baozhu interrupted his mother on the hospital bed, walked quickly to the door of the ward, looked around, then closed the door, and gave the old lady a look.
"Don't dare to say anything. When the hospital is your home, do you know that the police have already gone to the person surnamed Yan. Now you tell the police that you made a mistake. When the time comes, the police will accuse you of false accusations. Do you want to implicate me and you to eat in prison together?"
Zhang Baozhu impatiently sat on the edge of the hospital bed, and exhorted the old lady: "I can tell you, you are not allowed to say those words in the future, your leg was hit by a car surnamed Yan, you should remember this The thing is, even if you are dreaming, you can’t talk about it.”
"Besides, I just inquired about it. The family surnamed Yan is in good condition. Not to mention a house of 90 square meters in the inner city, there is also a new house with a larger area in the new district. The combination of these two houses is worth at least 100 square meters." Eighteen million, what if I asked him for a change?"
Zhang Baozhu thought that if he could really make a fortune because of his mother's injury, then it would not be troublesome for him to run around these days.
Thinking of this, Zhang Baozhu looked at the old woman on the hospital bed with disgust. Now that she has injured her leg, she has all kinds of troubles in her movements. My wife has complained to him several times in secret to take care of the old woman. Zhang Baozhu also feels annoying, if not Seeing that the old lady is still useful, he wants to leave her to other younger siblings to take care of.
My old lady is not his own old lady, so why is he the only one who suffers in the end
Of course, it would be completely different if he could get compensation for everything. For the sake of compensation, he was also willing to do his filial piety as a son.
"Our house is also valuable."
The old lady muttered softly, seeing her son's impatient face, she didn't dare to say anything more.
In fact, what the old lady said is not bad. The village in the city where they live is the real center of the city center. It is full of the busiest and busiest commercial streets. It is just a wall away from them. The prices of houses in that area are really not low. Otherwise, it would not have been so many years, because the huge amount of demolition compensation has not been negotiated, and it has been abandoned to the present point.
Zhang Baozhu's house was left by his father, and it is logical that this house is also shared by his other brothers and sisters, but who made the old lady love the eldest son, and under his instigation, he insisted on allocating this house to the eldest son.
Three rooms, small in size, just over 40 square meters. Now it has been fired up to a price of more than 4 million yuan. This is still a price without a market. Everyone is waiting for the demolition of this urban village, and no one is willing to sell it. .
In terms of the unit price of the house alone, the Zhang family is definitely higher than the Yan family.
But apart from the house, the other situations of the two families are irrelevant. Apart from this house, the Zhang family has nothing else to offer. They are just dawdling.
"Mom, you don't even think about your grandson. He's not too young. Who doesn't ask for a house when marrying a wife now? With our family's conditions, can you afford a house? Is it possible that you don't want to hold your great-grandson? I But I have inquired, in your situation, find a relationship to get a first- and second-level disability appraisal, and if it is done well, the Yan family can pay hundreds of thousands."
Speaking of this number, Zhang Baozhu clicked his tongue. He didn't expect the money to come so quickly. It's a pity that the old lady was not injured more seriously. I heard that if she was hit and became paralyzed or in a vegetable state, she would lose more money.
"Why, the matter between Dabao and that girl is about to be settled?" Hearing what her son said, the old lady's eyes lit up, and suddenly she felt that the wound on her foot didn't hurt so much.
"Of course, when the compensation comes, pay the down payment immediately. You don't need to buy a city center, and the square footage doesn't need to be too big. It's better than the compensation. It's always enough to pay the down payment. When the time comes, the couple will repay the mortgage together and live a good life." Isn't it pretty?"
The blueprint that Zhang Baozhu drew for Fu Daidi was so beautiful that all her remaining guilt disappeared immediately.
What the son said was right, the condition of that family was so good, so what if you gave them some, nothing was more important than her precious grandson.
"Boss, I don't think this is safe. The police made it clear that they didn't fully believe my words. If we want to prove the fact that I was hit by that young man, we still need to find other evidence."
A flash of hotness flashed in the old lady's eyes. It's no wonder she has reached this point.
