Chapter 726: For Whom Does Justice Serve?
"Ma Dapan, didn’t you say you’ve lived here for over a decade? How co it’s only been over ten months?"
If Ma Dapan hadn’t deliberately claid that she had lived in the yard for over a decade, ngyu would never have considered her one of those who were arranged to live in soone else’s yard for over a decade and are now being driven out by the original hoowners.
She had thought that Ma Dapan was of high moral consciousness, not making a fuss and moving out on her own initiative.
Who knew, she actually broke into the newly renovated house when it was vacant.
Could this be at all the sa as those particular circumstances of the past where people moved in?
"I have been living here for over a decade." Ma Dapan insisted.
ngyu sighed: "Aunt Chen, I have heard people say that Ma Dapan indeed lived here for over a decade before. However, it wasn’t a vacant property allocated by the Street Office, but rather, she found out that the house was unoccupied due to the owner being sent away, and she forcibly moved in.
Later, when the house owner ca back and reclaid the house, she made the biggest scene. Because the hoowner’s grandson was sick and planned to sell the house for his grandson’s treatnt, opting to live with his own son, she deliberately scared away buyers and forced the original owner to sell her the house at half price..."
ngyu shared the outco of buying the house last year with Aunt Chen.
"Just like that, I bought the house, had my brother help renovate it, and planned to live here when I go to university. But who knew—"
Aunt Chen was furious.
In those special past tis, when people were sent away and their houses beca vacant, the Street Office would allocate these houses to the holess, that was a special asure for a special situation.
You, on the other hand, forced your way in, the hoowner ca back and you made a scene, they wanted to sell the house to save their grandson, and you actually took advantage of their misfortune by forcing them to sell to you at half price. Others bought and renovated the house, and you just broke in without asking, do you think you’re starting a revolution?
The problem is, you did sothing wrong yourself, yet you dare to approach the Street Office seeking justice, where does your sense of justice co from?
In the end, Aunt Chen angrily announced: "We’ll do as Mr. Jiang suggested. But I see you don’t have the capability to restore Mr. Jiang’s house to its original state, so we’ll fine you an extra one thousand yuan, to be paid together with the initial sum for a total of two thousand yuan to Mr. Jiang. Then move out.
Otherwise, your property will be valued at two thousand yuan and be paid to Mr. Jiang!"
Ma Dapan was dumbfounded, she approached the Street Office to seek justice for herself, shouldn’t Aunt Chen be upholding justice for her? How co she ended up serving justice for that little girl Jiang ngyu?
At this mont, she hated Aunt Chen as well.
Angry and indignant, she left one last remark: "We’ll wait and see." and then slinked away, disheartened.
Aunt Chen felt ashad: "Ah, Auntie is to bla for not understanding the situation, almost causing Mr. Jiang to be wronged."
How could ngyu really bla her? She shook her head: "I was just too upset by her behavior, who would really be short of that little money? Let’s do this, if Ma Dapan hands over that two thousand yuan, let’s donate it to our Street Office."
Aunt Chen was imdiately overjoyed: "Oh my, Mr. Jiang, you truly are a good person, I’ve been worrying about how to repair the kindergarten building in our street."
ngyu’s interest was piqued: "Auntie, we have a kindergarten in our street?"
Aunt Chen nodded: "Of course we do, what else would we do for the children in our street?" She sighed, and added: "It’s just a pity, our kindergarten building is too run-down. But with your two thousand yuan, we should be able to repair it nicely."
