Chapter 221 A happy smile
He returned to the courtyard and told everyone about his discovery. After hearing this, the neighbors expressed shock and anger and decided to work together to expose these unscrupulous workshops. Wang Qiang led everyone to report to the relevant departments, and after some efforts, they finally succeeded in closing down these illegal workshops.
The courtyard was peaceful again. Wang Qiang stood in the middle of the courtyard, watching everyone busy at work, and felt very relieved. He knew that although the road ahead was still full of challenges, as long as everyone was united, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.
Qin Huairu came over and said softly to Wang Qiang: "Brother Wang Qiang, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we don't know what to do."
Wang Qiang smiled slightly, "Huai Ru, this is what we all should do. As long as we unite together, there is no difficulty that cannot be solved."
Wang Qiang stood in the middle of the courtyard, recalling the unity and laughter of last night, and his heart was full of satisfaction. However, he knew that everyone in the courtyard had their own problems to solve. Today, his target was Lou Xiao'e. Lou Xiao'e was a strong woman. Her husband died early, and she raised two children alone. Her life was very hard.
Thinking of this, Wang Qiang decided to go to the market to buy some food for Lou Xiao'e to help her through the difficult times. He knew that although this material help could not completely solve her predicament, it could at least alleviate some of her burden.
In the early morning, the market was crowded with people. Wang Qiang picked up a few bags of rice, flour, some oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, and bought a few snacks that children like. He thought that these things should be able to help Lou Xiao'e survive for a while. When checking out, the shop owner saw that Wang Qiang bought so many things and asked with a smile: "Is this for someone's wedding?"
Wang Qiang smiled and shook his head, "No, I bought it for a friend who needs help."
The shop owner nodded and said, "You are such a good person. These things are nothing, but they can make people feel warm."
Wang Qiang thanked them and walked back with a firm step, carrying the heavy bag. He was thinking of Lou Xiao'e and her children, hoping that these things could bring them a little warmth and hope.
When they returned to the courtyard, Lou Xiao'e was sitting in the yard mending clothes, and her two children were playing nearby. Seeing Wang Qiang coming over with so many things, she was a little surprised and hurriedly stood up to greet him.
"Brother Wang Qiang, these things are..." Lou Xiao'e looked at the food and a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes.
Wang Qiang put down the bag and said with a smile: "Xiao E, these are some food and daily necessities I bought for you. You haven't had a good time recently, I hope these things can help a little."
When Lou Xiao'e heard this, her eyes turned red and her voice choked up, "Brother Wang Qiang, you are so kind. I don't know how to thank you."
Wang Qiang waved his hand, "Don't say that. We are all neighbors, and it's only natural for us to help each other. You don't have to take it too seriously. If you have any difficulties, just tell me and we'll solve them together."
Lou Xiao'e nodded, her gratitude overflowing with words. She looked at the two children, thinking that today the children could finally have a full meal. She tried to control her emotions and said to the children with a smile: "Look, Uncle Wang brought us so many delicious foods. Thank Uncle Wang quickly."
The two children ran over happily and called "Uncle Wang" sweetly, which made Wang Qiang feel warm. He squatted down and patted the children's heads gently, "You must listen to your mother and grow up well so that you can take better care of her in the future."
The children nodded vigorously, and their innocent smiles made Wang Qiang feel extremely relieved. He knew that although what he did was insignificant, it could bring some hope and strength to this small family.
As night fell, the courtyard returned to its tranquility. Wang Qiang sat in his room, thinking back to the day's experience, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He thought of Qin Huairu and her children, Lou Xiao'e and her children, and the people in the courtyard. He secretly made up his mind to do his best to help everyone and make the courtyard full of vitality again.
Just then, there was a light knock on the door. Wang Qiang opened the door and saw Qin Huairu standing at the door with a complicated expression on her face.
"Huai Ru, it's so late, is there anything wrong?" Wang Qiang asked with concern.
Qin Huairu lowered his head, his voice trembling, "Brother Wang Qiang, I...I have something to tell you."
Wang Qiang stepped aside, invited her in, poured her a cup of hot tea and handed it to her, "Don't be impatient, talk slowly."
Qin Huairu held the hot tea cup and took a deep breath. "Brother Wang Qiang, I heard something today that seemed a little strange. Someone said that there might be other people in the courtyard who also ate those problematic snacks, but the symptoms are not yet obvious."
Wang Qiang frowned, "This matter does need attention. We can't let anyone get hurt again. Did you hear who ate those snacks?"
Qin Huairu shook her head. "I don't know exactly who it is, but I think we can gather everyone and remind them to pay attention to their diet."
Wang Qiang nodded. "Your suggestion is very good. We will call a meeting tomorrow and emphasize this matter again. Only when everyone is alert can we avoid more harm."
Qin Huairu smiled with relief, "Brother Wang Qiang, thank you for your help all the time. If it weren't for you, we really don't know what to do."
Wang Qiang patted her hands gently. "This is what I should do. We are all family, and we should help each other. You don't have to worry too much, everything will be fine."
The next morning, Wang Qiang called the neighbors together again. He stood in the middle of the courtyard and said in a loud and firm voice, "Everyone, please be quiet. I have something important to say."
Neighbors stopped what they were doing and gathered around Wang Qiang. Wang Qiang cleared his throat and continued, "We recently discovered some problematic snacks that contain chronic toxins. Although we have closed down those unscrupulous workshops, there are still people who may have eaten these snacks but have not yet developed symptoms. Everyone must be alert and check the snacks at home. If there are any problematic ones, throw them away immediately."
There were low murmurs among the crowd, and everyone seemed a little uneasy. Wang Qiang saw this mood and continued to comfort them: "I know this makes everyone feel uneasy, but as long as we are careful, we can avoid more harm. If you find any abnormal symptoms, tell me or others immediately, and we will work together to find a solution."
Aunt Zhang stepped forward and took the lead, saying, "Wang Qiang is right. We must all be vigilant and not let this happen again. Thank you Wang Qiang for your concern and help."
