Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

"Tell me, is there any other solution?"

The deaf old lady looked at the steward who was sitting there like three sculptures and asked.

Yi Zhonghai also looked helpless. He really had no way to deal with Sha Zhu's problem. In fact, he, Yi Zhonghai, had some reputation in the factory and the courtyard, but the police would not pay any attention to him, a seventh-level fitter and the manager.

Come to think of it, Chen Xu thought Yi Zhonghai was an eighth-level fitter, but he didn't expect that he is still at seventh level now. However, he remembered that when he was watching TV in his previous life, it was mentioned once that Yi Zhonghai was promoted in the same year as Jia Dongxu.

Yi Zhonghai was promoted to level 8 fitter, Jia Dongxu was promoted to level 2 fitter, but not long after that Jia Dongxu was hung up on the wall...

It took almost ten years from the time this guy took over his father's job until he died, but he was only a second-level fitter when he died. This fact was somewhat well-known in the steel rolling mill, and this is how Jia Dongxu got the nickname "the shame of fitters."

The fourth level of fitter is a hurdle. For the first three levels, you just need to spend some time and have basic skills.

It is hard to say whether Jia Dongxu is a hopeless case or Yi Zhonghai did it on purpose.

Seeing the deaf old lady looking at him, Yi Zhonghai could only speak.

"Old lady, you can't do anything, what can we do?"

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui next to him also nodded to indicate that Yi Zhonghai was right.

In the past two days, the deaf old lady not only contacted He Daqing who was far away in Baoding, but also looked for some other people, but with little success. Apart from allowing her to see a stupid pillar, there was basically no effect.

This was hard for the deaf old lady who always thought highly of herself to accept. She felt that these people were ungrateful, as she had helped them a lot in the past...

But the old guy didn't even think about it. Just for the small favor she helped him with, why should he make others go through so much effort, not to mention whether he has the ability to influence the decision of the judicial body.

Even if we really have this ability, the price we pay will definitely be extremely high.

If you look at politicians throughout history, from ancient times to the present day, you will find that most of their behavior is not in line with the values ​​of ordinary people.

Even if there are favors, if it is some small favor, they will help out. But if the matter is too big, even affecting their own interests, not to mention you, a deaf old lady, even your own father may not be able to help.

This old woman used chicken feathers as a token of authority, and she was lucky enough not to be kicked out.

The deaf old lady was now helpless. She really could not do anything about Sha Zhu's problem. This was similar to what Chen Xu had guessed. The old lady did not have that much power.

Sighing, the deaf old lady could only place her hope on He Daqing, who might return at any time. Calculating the time, it had been a few days since she sent the telegram, and she wondered if He Daqing had received it.

at the same time.

Chen Xu, who had just returned to the courtyard, met an old man who looked exhausted.

Looking at this face that was somewhat similar to Teacher Ni Dahong, he immediately guessed the man's identity, He Daqing.

Chen Xu discovered that the appearance of these people in the courtyard was basically the same as in the TV series, except that they were a lot younger. After all, it was still 1960, and there were still five years before the plot began.

But I didn’t expect that He Daqing would come back.

After a little thought, Chen Xu guessed that it was the work of the deaf old lady. She was the most anxious person when something happened to Sha Zhu.

As for asking He Daqing to come back, Yi Zhonghai would definitely not do it. Chen Xu remembered that the old guy seemed to have cheated He Daqing out of the living expenses he sent back to He Yushui.

Neither of them used a flashlight, and they didn't notice each other until they reached the entrance of the courtyard.

"Are you also a resident of the Siheyuan?"

He Daqing looked at Chen Xu in surprise. Although he had been away for ten years, he still had an impression of the people in the courtyard, but Chen Xu was obviously not in his memory.

"Yeah, we just moved here not long ago."

Chen Xu responded casually and went straight into the courtyard. He was not familiar with He Daqing, and he was also responsible for Sha Zhu's affairs, so he naturally had no intention of paying any attention to him.

He Daqing looked at Chen Xu's back and felt that this guy was a little strange.

Nowadays, people usually interrogate strangers when they see them. After all, enemy spies are rampant nowadays. But this young comrade did not ask him his opinion. He just answered casually and left.

Could it be that this guy knows me?

He Daqing, who couldn't figure it out, was anxious about Sha Zhu's matter, so he didn't think much about it and just followed him into the courtyard.

The courtyard was very quiet and most of the residents had turned off their lights.

Chen Xu felt that there was nothing wrong with coming back late, at least he could get home safely.

He planned to replenish his nutrition in the space and make some steamed buns, cakes and the like in case of emergency.

Looking at the larger space, Chen Xu was very satisfied. According to the current trend, the space could expand several meters a month. In addition, he would add more small fish at any time, so the speed would only get faster and faster in the future.

It's the same principle as a snowball.

Chen Xu has begun to fantasize about owning a large piece of land and living a leisurely life.

Middle Court.

When He Daqing returned to the He family, he looked at the little girl who was sitting at the table in a daze and was a little afraid to approach her.

He Yushui needed to deliver meals to Sha Zhu these days, so she didn't go back to school. Besides, the relationship between the two siblings was not as tense as it was later when Sha Zhu was having his blood sucked, so naturally she had no intention of going to school.

At this moment, she was thinking about what she would do if her brother was sentenced. She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't even notice someone pushing the door open.

He Daqing stood there and looked at He Yushui for a long time. The little girl who was a few years old back then has now grown up.

Calculating the time, He Yushui, who was born in 1944, is already sixteen years old this year. I remember that when he left, the girl was only six years old.

"rainwater..."

After struggling for a long time, He Daqing finally shouted out.

Hearing a strange yet somewhat familiar voice calling her name, He Yushui came back to her senses and turned her head in confusion. When she saw the figure hidden deep in her memory, tears immediately flowed down her face.

He Daqing was a little excited. After all, she was his daughter, and it was normal for her to be excited when she saw her old father.

next second.

He Yushui broke out.

"Go away! Who let you in?"

He Yushui, who was crying loudly, picked up the broom beside her and rushed towards He Daqing.

He Daqing looked at his daughter who was crying and trying to drive him out, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

This was in stark contrast to how he had imagined a father-daughter meeting.

When Yi Zhonghai and others heard the noise in the backyard and rushed to the middle courtyard, they saw He Daqing standing outside the door with his luggage and an embarrassed look on his face, and He Yushui was crying and waving a broom around.

"Lao He?"

Yi Zhonghai recognized He Daqing at a glance.

"It's Lao Yi."

He Daqing also noticed Yi Zhonghai and others, but the most important thing at this moment was to comfort his daughter. Looking at He Yushui's attitude, it was obvious that she was heartbroken by him.

Now, many people have come out of the courtyard to watch the fun, and Chen Xu is among the crowd.

He was just about to prepare some spare food when he heard some noise outside. The food could be prepared at any time, but the excitement would not wait for him.

Chen Xu decisively went out to watch. Nowadays, it was just a way to have fun by watching the fun.

He arrived quite early, and when he arrived, he saw the frantic He Yushui using a broom to blast He Daqing out.

"Good job!"

Chen Xu gave He Yushui a thumbs up.
