I am doing well in the Siheyuan

"Xu Damao, Liu Haizhong, it's fine if you just make trouble in the yard, but you also want to cause trouble to other people's homes!"

The deaf old lady suddenly spoke, her face turned pale, and she walked out steadily from the crowd with a cane in her hand.

When she spoke, the courtyard suddenly became quiet.

"Why is this old lady getting involved in such trivial matters?"

The neighbors in the next yard were confused.

Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong were also confused.

What does their trouble with Ye Ming's father-in-law have to do with this old lady?

"Old lady, you'd better not interfere in this matter."

"What? Are you threatening me? Liu Haizhong, let me tell you, when you got married, I was the elder of this courtyard. Today, if anyone dares to do something that goes against the will of heaven, I will be the first to disagree!"

The old lady's words were so powerful that Ran's father and mother were very surprised. They didn't expect that it was the deaf grandmother from the next door yard who came out to speak for them.

Liu Haizhong also fell into trouble because of this.

Team leader Wu frowned and thought. Considering the old lady's advanced age, he would have a hard time explaining to his superiors if an accident occurred due to his improper handling.

So they decided to let Liza Wang and Xu Damao solve the problem themselves. After all, today's incident had caused such a stir, and they had to give a reasonable explanation to Team Leader Wu and the people in the hospital.

Director Wang gave Xu Damao a wink.

"Old lady, you are of high rank in this courtyard, but we are on official business now. No matter what you say today, I have to go in and search!"

With Director Wang's support, Xu Damao no longer took the deaf old lady seriously. He signaled two of his men to block the old lady, while the others prepared to go into the house to search.

However, there was a sudden commotion among the crowd.

"Oh, so lively? Xu Damao, Liu Haizhong, it's you two again."

The visitor was Ye Ming, who had hurried back from the steel mill after receiving the news.

Team leader Wu glanced at him a few times and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

"Humph, Ye Ming, you're here just in time."

Having finally discovered his weakness, Xu Damao no longer took Ye Ming seriously.

"Let me ask you, do you know the identity of your father-in-law?"

"I know, he's a teacher. Any questions?"

"Hey, you're still playing dumb with me. They came back from abroad, don't you know?"

"So what? They gave up the superior working and living environment abroad and devoted themselves to the education of their motherland. Is there anything wrong with that? Or do you think that the countless workers who have devoted themselves to the construction of the motherland should only care about their own interests and ignore the overall situation, and should not have the motherland and compatriots of all ethnic groups in their hearts? Xu Damao, what are you thinking?"

Ye Ming's words were sonorous and powerful, and the majesty in his eyes made Liu Haizhong's face pale.

Xu Damao was also panicked, knowing that once he was accused of such a crime, he would never be able to turn things around in his life.

"You're talking nonsense, Director Wang, Team Leader Wu, don't listen to his nonsense, I..."

"okay."

Liza Wang had lost her patience, fearing that Team Leader Wu would have an opinion of her after seeing this scene, and that the consequences would be unpredictable after reporting it.

"Ye Ming, don't say these useless theories. After all, they are back from abroad. You said they returned to China to devote themselves to construction, but their home is full of foreign books. How can this make sense?"

"Who told you that I had those books hidden in my house?"

"Still denying it! Ye Ming, just search and you'll know. If you have the guts, don't stop me!"

Seeing that he was about to fail, Xu Damao was unwilling to give up.

But Ye Ming's expression remained calm, and there was even a hint of teasing in his eyes.

"It seems that if we don't let them search, it will be difficult to clear my parents' suspicion. Okay, then search, but don't mess up everything."

"You're just bluffing! Search for me!"

As long as those books are found, no matter how much Ye Ming talks, it will be of no use.

Following Xu Damao's order, several members of the Revolutionary Committee quickly dispersed and searched everywhere in the house.

Soon, there were results.

"Team Leader Xu, we didn't find anything!"

"I have nothing here either."

Xu Damao frowned, and then another report came from inside the room: "Team Leader Liu, we only found this."

When everyone saw it, their faces changed immediately.

"How can this be!"

When Liza Wang came closer and saw what was in Xu Damao's hand, her face instantly turned gloomy.

"Captain Xu, is this the Western document you mentioned?"

"No, Director Wang, this...how can this be Liu Haizhong's thing? Didn't you say that all the books in his family are in foreign languages?" Xu Damao was also confused. He originally planned to take this opportunity to bring down Ran Qiuye's family in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect to confirm their upright identity.

"The young man from the Cheng family told me so himself." Seeing this, Liu Haizhong realized that things were getting out of control and hurriedly stepped forward to explain.

Then, as if a light bulb had turned on him, he changed his previous servile attitude.

"I remember now. The book is definitely not here. It must have been moved to their home by Ye Ming. Director Wang, let's go to Ye Ming's house and search it again. We will definitely be able to find the so-called evidence!"

"Yes, Ye Ming is a very smart guy. He knows that there is something wrong with the book. It is most likely hidden somewhere else. Director Wang, let me take people to search his place again. We will definitely get something!" Xu Damao was also anxious as if he had grabbed the last straw.

The arrow has been shot and there is no turning back.

In the current situation, either those books are found and Ye Ming's family is sent to prison, or they lose their jobs and have no place to stand in Nanluoguxiang anymore.

"This..." Liza Wang hesitated, knowing in her heart that if she couldn't find the book, she would also be implicated.

After weighing the pros and cons, the only option is to ask for instructions from superiors.

"Team Leader Wu, what do you think about this?" However, Team Leader Wu's mind was not focused on this matter.

From the moment he saw Ye Ming, he felt that this person seemed familiar.

This feeling became stronger and stronger, until just now, when he suddenly thought of someone, but he was not sure.

Team leader Wu did not respond to Wang Mingquan, but frowned and asked Ye Ming: "Have we met somewhere before?"

"you are?"

"This is Team Leader Wu, the inspector sent by the Municipal Revolutionary Committee." Anxious to show off, Liza Wang hurriedly introduced.

Upon hearing that he was a cadre from the Municipal Revolutionary Committee, Ye Ming took a few more glances at him.

"There seem to be only two officials with the surname Wu in the Municipal Revolutionary Committee? Wu Changrong and Wu Zhengtao?"

"I am Wu Zhengtao, who are you?"

Ye Ming called him by his name, which immediately warmed up Team Leader Wu's expression.

No wonder he felt familiar, he was sure he had seen this person in the city.

Liza Wang was extremely shocked. This dispatched cadre named Wu had been here for two days and was usually arrogant, so why was he so humble in front of Ye Ming?

Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong also realized that the situation was not good and that the development of events was beyond their control.

The deaf old lady secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she had made the right bet!
