Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

Life is like sailing against the current, you never know when the wind will be calm, and you never know when the waves will be turbulent. The ever-changing environment has made Xu Damao, who is in the Propaganda Department, keenly aware that he needs to study the latest newspapers and various propaganda publications carefully, so that he can accurately convey the latest spirit of the country to everyone in the opening and narration of his movies.

While he was reading the internal journal and taking notes attentively, 6-7 "literary transporters" rushed in at once. They didn't say a word to him and took him out. At this time, Xu Damao had been through a lot and was no longer the same old man. He didn't resist, let alone shout, and cooperated with the "literary transporters" all the way.

After entering the cell where the "literary and cultural personnel" were detained, Xu Damao answered all questions and explained all doubts. His deep baritone voice echoed in the cell. His neither humble nor arrogant behavior, his well-reasoned and confident statements made several "literary and cultural personnel" doubt whether they had found the wrong person. Before strong evidence arrived, they did not make things too difficult for him, but only restricted his freedom.

Li Wan'er, who was in the courtyard, was not as calm as Xu Damao when she saw the aggressive "literary workers". After all, she was a daughter-in-law from the countryside. When she came to the city, her activities were limited to the courtyard and the surrounding supply and marketing cooperatives and vegetable markets, so her vision and courage were naturally limited. She held her youngest son in her arms and held her eldest daughter's hand, crying helplessly in the backyard.

In this kind of environment, the "literary transporters" have seen many people like Li Wanhua, and there are many who are worse off than her. They searched the Xu family without any care and recklessness. Not long after, they did not find any particularly sensitive objects after "digging three feet deep". They only found a few yellow croakers and four or five hundred yuan. They deliberately avoided the bangs outside the Xu family's house, exchanged glances with several "literary transporters", and returned to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill with the money and things they had confiscated.

It's not that the people in the courtyard are heartless, indifferent, or timid. It's just that during this period, too many people had their homes searched, were criticized, and locked up in cow sheds by the "literary movement members"; there were also many enthusiastic people who were implicated and framed. In order to keep themselves alive and to keep their families alive, they could only choose to watch coldly and hide from afar.

No one came out to take care of Li Wan'er and her two children in the backyard. Just because no one paid attention to them didn't mean they couldn't find someone else to play with! Xu Tingfen, who was about four years old, was about the same age as Liang Laigen and Yu Li's son Liang Jianguo, and they usually played together. The world of a child is very simple. She didn't know why her mother was crying, and she didn't know how to comfort her. She only knew that it was boring to stay in the yard all the time, so she walked into the Liang family as usual with her short legs and went to play with Liang Jianguo.

Li Wan'er saw her daughter went into the Liang family, with whom she usually had a good relationship. She didn't want her family's affairs to implicate Liang Laigen and Yu Li, so she hurried in. Once inside, Yu Li, who was at home, pulled Li Wan'er aside and whispered something. After a while, Li Wan'er left the courtyard holding her son and holding her daughter's hand.

Watching Li Wan'er and her son leave the courtyard, the aunties and grandmas in the courtyard slowly gathered in groups of two or three to discuss: "I'm afraid the daughter-in-law of the Xu family is going back to her parents' home to hide."

"Alas..." "Husband and wife are birds of a feather, but they fly away separately when disaster strikes." The child is still so young, it's understandable, and I can understand her..."

"The old cadre from the neighboring yard was exposed by his wife and they even got divorced!"

"I heard that in a courtyard two streets away from us, a family of half-grown children reported an old revolutionary couple..."

He Yuzhu, who was in the guesthouse, was lying on the bed watching Liang Ladi and her daughter playing "rope picking" and talking to them casually: "Ladi, you don't have to worry too much. You still have to insist that the two boys go to school. They will be useless if they stay at home. "Cultural mobilization officers" also have to look at people and things, and see if they can bring them benefits. They won't have the time to embarrass a few children..."

"Okay, Brother Zhu, I'll listen to you. When you can get out of bed, I will go to the kindergarten with your daughter every day..." Liang Ladi responded softly.

"Why are you barging in? Who are you looking for?" The waiter's voice outside the door came into He Yuzhu's room.

"I have something to ask Director He. I'm his neighbor." Li Wan'er's voice came next.

"Let her in!" He Yuzhu ordered calmly.

As soon as she entered He Yuzhu's room, Li Wan'er was so emotional that she couldn't stop crying and couldn't speak clearly. Instead, Xu Tingfen went to play with He Danan regardless of anything, and Xu Zhengsheng followed her staggeringly.

He Yuzhu looked at Li Wan'er's tearful face, and the first thought in his mind was, "Damn, this Xu Damao, I'm afraid he's messing around outside again, look how angry Li Wan'er is." So he asked in a soft voice, curiously, "Xu Damao, what's wrong?"

"Wu, wu...Brother Zhu, a group of "cultural operatives" came from the steel mill and ransacked my house. Damao, I still don't know how he is doing? Wu, wu..." Li Wan'er choked and told the story in a halting manner.

"Li Wan'er, don't worry too much. I'll go to the steel mill to take a look." He Yuzhu didn't know what Xu Damao had done wrong, so he could only pretend to be calm and comfort him.

Afterwards, He Yuzhu called the waiter at the door in and gave him some instructions. Not long after, the waiter pushed in a wheelchair and helped He Yuzhu sit on it. Before leaving, He Yuzhu told Liang Ladi, "Let Li Wan'er wait in the guesthouse with the child, and don't go out and run around."

After the waiter of the guesthouse sent He Yuzhu to Director Li's office, he consciously went outside to wait. Director Li looked at He Yuzhu, who came uninvited and had not recovered yet, sitting in a wheelchair. How could he not know why He Yuzhu came? "He clearly remembered: Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e got married, and He Yuzhu was the one who cooked the meal himself. This was a unique friendship among ordinary people outside the steel mill."

Director Li smiled and chatted with He Yuzhu, "I am concerned about He Yuzhu's recovery and the progress of the repair of He Yuzhu's house..." In this life, He Yuzhu started by reading the newspaper with a dictionary, and later he could easily read various internal publications; in this life, through his own efforts, he started from a high point and came into contact with a wider range of people. He is no longer the silly man in the previous life. He thanked Director Li for caring about him, and was even more grateful for Director Li's concern for his family. He reported to Director Li, "In about a week, my body will be basically recovered; the repairs at home are already finishing, and I will probably move in before National Day..."

As they chatted, no one knew who started it, but the two of them talked about moving and having a banquet. He Yuzhu said with gratitude: "I have encountered a lot of problems this time, and I need a lot of help. I would like to invite 2-3 tables of wine to express my gratitude to everyone during the move."

"Director Li, you are knowledgeable. Can you give me some advice on what kind of food and wine I should prepare?" He Yuzhu asked sincerely.

Director Li is a person who loves food, women, money and power. How could he not understand He Yuzhu's show of goodwill? "He Yuzhu is giving me face by letting him order the dishes!" He would pretend to refuse other dishes, but he would not be polite when it comes to food and ordered 7 to 8 dishes at once.

The two chatted politely for a while, and He Yuzhu said that he was tired and called the waiter outside the office to leave. Director Li looked at He Yuzhu's sincere and expectant eyes, and his heart softened. He sighed and asked, "Xu Damao in your hospital is in trouble. Do you want to go and take a look?"

He Yuzhu was very surprised and asked excitedly: "What? Xu Damao got into trouble? Then I will go and persuade him to explain himself and try to get leniency from the organization..."
