Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 220 Disputes
However, it must be said that the old tortoise's suggestion was tempting.

But there is still a problem here.

Just like the spatial abilities she once possessed.

It can be lost just like that.

There are countless wonderful things in this space.

Now, however, none of it remains.

Lu Qiaoge stopped thinking about it. In fact, as long as she had a house, all the problems would be solved.

Lu Qiaoge cut the fish and shrimp in the iron bucket in two.

It was put into another small metal bucket and then placed on the handlebars.

Just as she was about to leave, Meng Xia called out to Lu Qiaoge and said, "That guy from your workplace, Shao Le, went to resolve the dispute at Grandma Sun's house. After he finished, he came to see you, but when he found out you weren't home, he left without even going in."

Lu Qiaoge casually asked, "What kind of dispute is going on at Aunt Sun's house?"

Meng Xia said, "I just found out that your Aunt Sun's neighbor, the one named Zhang Zhuliang, who is a fitter in the second workshop, beat your Aunt Sun's big black dog to death yesterday, saying that the big black dog bit his daughter."

"Your mother-in-law, Aunt Sun, wouldn't admit it, saying it was impossible. She said her big black dog was so well-behaved and obedient, how could it bite anyone? So she complained to the neighborhood committee, and they mediated, making Zhang Zhuliang pay Aunt Sun three yuan. That was the end of it."

Lu Qiaoge frowned.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Grandma Sun's family also lives in this area of ​​bungalows.

But her family occupied two households.

Moreover, it was very neat and beautifully arranged, no less so than the buildings where cadres lived.

Her family's courtyard is three times the size of the Lu family's courtyard.

Not only does he have a small vegetable garden, but Old Sun also keeps a big black dog.

The Sun family and the Xu family were similar; their members were either cadres or workers. Grandma Sun had retired due to illness years ago, and although her salary wasn't high, she received it every month and could also earn pocket money by pasting paper boxes.

There's only one grandson in the family who's in kindergarten and does all the work.

Lu Qiaoge also knew about Zhang Zhuliang's family.

His father was paralyzed and bedridden due to a cerebral infarction, and his mother, according to later generations, likely suffered from Alzheimer's disease.

She no longer remembers her husband, her son and daughter-in-law, or her two granddaughters.

Zhang Zhuliang's father and mother were not workers, so they naturally did not receive retirement pensions.

Only Zhang Zhuliang and his wife go to work at home.

Lu Qiaoge knew Zhang Zhuliang. This man always had a frown on his face, and although he was not yet forty, his back was hunched over.

If there are no sick people in the family, you won't know there are two such patients. Even a healthy person can be tortured to death.

Meng Xia sighed and said, "Although the Zhang family is in dire straits, he really did beat that big black dog to death in front of your Aunt Sun, and someone even saw it. Your Aunt Sun was so frightened that she almost fainted."

However, no one saw the big black dog bite his daughter. It's pitiful, really. The child was bitten quite badly, with injuries all over her arms and legs.

But it's no use. No one saw it or there's any evidence. Zhang Zhuliang just beat someone's dog to death. Your Aunt Sun is definitely angry.

She said that Zhang Zhuliang's daughter might have been bitten by someone's dog and then blamed her family, just because they thought her family was well-off and wanted to extort some money from her.
She said she didn't ask for much, just three yuan, she just wanted justice for her big black dog, which she had raised from a puppy and was very attached to.

Lu Qiaoge can understand this.

If someone beats your dog to death right in front of you, a dog you've raised since it was a puppy, you can't let it go.

So the matter escalated to the local street office.

Shao Lelai is a mediator; could we wait until next month's salary payment to receive the money?

I don't know if the mediation has been resolved. Lu Qiaoge hasn't called her pets yet. If it was the big black dog that bit her, can the animals testify?

If it was someone else's dog that bit you, evidence is also needed.

Meng Xia said, "The Zhang family is also having a hard time. Logically, I should go and see them, but your Aunt Sun has always been very good to our family. When we had no money or food, she lent us money. If I go to see that girl, your Aunt Sun will definitely be unhappy. Sigh, I don't know what to do."

Lu Qiaoge: "I'll go, I'll get two cans of food for Yaya."

Lu Qiaoge walked out of the alley behind the house; after crossing the alley, she reached the main road.

The alleyway was difficult to navigate; strength and speed were useless, as it was full of potholes and the bicycle bounced around. It would be a miracle if you could ride it steadily.

Lu Qiaoge had no choice but to push the cart along until they reached the alley where the Sun and Zhang families lived.

Before they even got close, they heard Old Sun yelling, "Zhang, are you out of your mind? Trying to extort money from me? I'm telling you, pay me three yuan right now, and you have to apologize to my dog, saying you wronged it. Waaah, my big black dog, you died so tragically..."

There were already quite a few people gathered around to watch the fun.

However, it wasn't just onlookers; some people also joined in offering advice.

"Xiao Zhang, although it was just a dog, it was raised from a puppy and we have a lot of affection for it. You just beat it to death like that, you should at least apologize to the owner."

"It's just a dog. Paying compensation is enough, why apologize? What, do you expect me to kowtow three times to the dog's grave?"

"Old Liu, aren't you just stirring up trouble? Is that what I meant? Look at how much Old Sun is crying."

Someone whispered, "Old Sun is really something. Even if he has feelings for her, he doesn't have to cry. Why not just raise another one?"

"I just don't like cats and dogs. I don't know how anyone can have feelings for them. I really don't understand."

"Yes, has everyone forgotten the dog-catching campaign of 73? Dogs are just not good pets. They are loyal to their owners, but to other people, they are just wild animals that will bite at any time. In my opinion, our military factory should organize a dog-catching campaign."

"I think it's fine. It's only been a few years, and there are already so many dogs in this bungalow area. And the owners don't keep their dogs on a leash. They can bite people whenever they want, can't they?"

"Brother Sun, don't cry. We're all from the same unit. It doesn't have to come to this."

Someone else shouted, "My dog ​​is having puppies next month. I'll bring you two then. You can raise them however you want. Honestly, is it really that big of a deal?"

Anyway, there is anything to say.

Lu Qiaoge parked the car on the side of the road.

Two cans of food were placed in a mesh bag, which Lu Qiaoge carried while standing by the roadside, but she was looking at Zhang Zhuliang's house.

Zhang Zhuliang and his wife were both in the yard.

The Zhang family and the Sun family were separated by a fence that was more than a meter high.

The bungalows we live in now don't have high walls or large courtyards, but the Lu family's neighbors all have walls that are more than a meter high.

You can jump over it by simply bracing yourself with your hand.

The neighborhood committee handled it correctly; they killed the dog without evidence, and the other party was compensated three yuan. In many people's eyes, that was quite fair.

This is also a warning: in the future, if you encounter something like this, you can't just resort to violence without thinking.

It's only three yuan. Which worker in a military factory can't afford three yuan?
The Lu family has also had their share of difficulties, but they can always come up with three yuan. If they really can't, they can borrow it and pay it back when they get their salary next month.

As a result, not many members of the Zhang family spoke up for them because they remained silent.

No one even asked how badly the child was bitten.

But this is actually normal.

Nowadays, children are raised in a free-range manner. If they get bitten by a dog, they just let it happen, and very few people get them vaccinated.

Moreover, rabies vaccines are not widely available yet.
