Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

When it was daybreak, Zhang Dabao got up to wash and brush his teeth. Wu Xuehua had already gotten up. Zhang Dabao gave her a special sense of security, and in her young heart she felt that this person could help her.

"Snowflakes, so early?" Zhang Dabao said.

"I'm afraid that the bad guy has left earlier," said Wu Xuehua.

"Let's go out together and eat. You have to tell me everything in detail." Seeing that Wu Xuehua was so concerned about this matter, Zhang Dabao went out with her.

There were few breakfast shops open on the street during this period, but there were still some, so the two of them ate at the street corner and started walking towards her Aunt Xiaomei's house.

"Uncle Wu, this is Sun Hai's home. There are only him and his father in his family. His father is a lazy man, and Sun Hai is not a good guy either." Wu Xuehua said while walking in an alley, pointing to a house.

"Isn't the roof exposed to the air? Why don't you repair it?" Zhang Dabao was a little confused.

"They can't afford to hire anyone, and they are lazy, so it's normal that the house collapsed. But his father is hanging out outside every day, and that Sun Hai doesn't live at home." Wu Xuehua kept complaining about Sun Hai along the way. It seemed that she particularly disliked this person.

They arrived at her aunt Xiaomei's house. Like the Wu family, it had two rooms, one upstairs and the other downstairs. The conditions were good at first glance. Although the house was not facing the street, the alley was wide and it was convenient to go in and out. It was a quiet place away from the hustle and bustle.

"Grandma Huang, Aunt Bumei, I've called for help." Wu Xuehua came here and pushed the door open and went in. It seemed that she was very familiar with this place.

"What reinforcements?" Huang Xiaomei asked Wu Xuehua with a forced smile.

"There's an Uncle Wu, who I feel is more senior than Sun Hai. He said he would help us. He came from Beijing and lives in my house. I brought him here and he's right at the door," said Wu Xuehua.

"Let him in quickly." Huang Xiaomei took two quick steps, welcomed Zhang Dabao in, and poured him a cup of tea.

"Miss Huang, what book is that?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"I didn't see it clearly. They brought the books in themselves, and they were all in foreign languages," said Huang Xiaomei.

"They are here, I will ask them." Zhang Dabao asked her to be patient. Perhaps because Zhang Dabao was too calm, the Huang mother and daughter felt relieved.

Sun Hai got up a little late today, because it was past two in the morning when he finished writing last night. If it weren't for Huang Xiaomei, he really didn't want to get up. But when he thought about his future wonderful life, he became motivated, called a few people from the warehouse, and went to Huang's house together.

"Huang Xiaomei, what do you think about the banned books?" After Sun Hai came to Huang's house, he ignored him. He felt that he was being looked down upon and was a little angry.

"Hello, comrade, here are my ID. I am from Beijing, and I am here to investigate your activities in Shanghai. I feel there is something wrong with what you are doing." Zhang Dabao stood up. He was very imposing and much taller than Sun Hai, so he put a lot of pressure on Sun Hai.

"What's the problem?" Sun Hai was a little nervous.

"Where are the books? What books?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"The book is in my bag." Sun Hai took out a foreign book.

Zhang Dabiao took it and asked Sun Hai, "Is this the one?"

"It's this book, a foreign book. This is the evidence that they are colluding with foreign countries," said Sun Hai.

"Sun Hai, right? I've heard that you are uneducated. This is a foreign book, do you know what's in it? It's our thoughts and the works of great men. You are illiterate, and can't you recognize the portrait? At this time, Marx..." Zhang Dabao scolded angrily.

"Who is this?" Sun Hai had never heard of this person.

"How the hell did you get into the team? Do you guys know him? If no one knows him, go call your superior," Zhang Dabao said loudly to them.

"I know them, this is Marx, this is Engels." Someone recognized the characters in the book.

"Who is this person? Tell Sun Hai," Zhang Dabao said to the student who answered the question.

"This is a great revolutionary mentor, this is communist thought..." The classmate said a lot to Sun Hai.

"Sun Hai, you handled this matter very badly. How could an ordinary citizen have such a book at home? Where did you steal it from? Was it embezzlement? You should have done some research when you said that Huang Xiaomei had such a book at home. To frame her, you really just took a banned book. Can you really do this? Also, you have to investigate if there is anyone in her family who knows German? If they don't know German, you can use English, French, or at worst Russian to frame her. Have you investigated?" Zhang Dabao looked at Sun Hai and asked.

"People like you are just trash who have infiltrated the team, and you are just troublemakers. This is just like accusing an illiterate of reading state secrets. Also, where did you get the books from? Think about it carefully. You should classify them properly. You can't put the good and bad together. You can't take things from your own home. Get out." Zhang Dabao scolded Sun Hai and kicked him out. The crisis for the Huang family was temporarily resolved.

"Uncle Wu, you are awesome. Do you recognize foreign languages?" Wu Xuehua asked with admiration.

"I don't know him, but I recognize those two portraits. They are great mentors. Okay, the problem is solved, shall we go back? Grandma will be worried if we go back late," said Zhang Dabao.

"Mr. Wu, thank you for your help. I believe I can treat you to lunch today," said Huang Xiaomei.

"No need to eat, I'm here to help Xuehua, and I have something to do at noon," Zhang Dabao refused directly.

"Let's have dinner together in the evening at Uncle Wu's house," Huang Xiaomei suggested.

"We can stay at Mr. Wu's house tonight. I asked a friend to buy some crabs and I'll bring them back early in the afternoon." Zhang Dabao nodded in agreement and left Huang's house with Wu Xuehua.

"Xiaomei, who do you think this Mr. Wu is?" Mother Huang asked her daughter.

"He is a very extraordinary person. This book is completely different from the one from yesterday. I have learned German, but they didn't know it. The book from yesterday was in English and I really understood it." Huang Xiaomei said.

"I don't know if he can find a way to get us out. Your father and your brother are outside, and there are two of us at home. In today's world, it's better for us to go out," said Mother Huang.

"Let's ask him from the side at night. See what he needs?" Huang Xiaomei also let out a long sigh.

Sun Hai and his team returned in defeat. No one spoke on the way back to the base. Sun Hai asked a few more people about the content of the book and came to the same conclusion as Zhang Dabiao said: it was a work written by a great man and there was no problem in studying him. While Sun Hai was asking others, someone reported the situation encountered today to Comrade Wang and Comrade Liu.

"What? Is it possible that Sun Hai is stealing from his employer?" Comrade Wang was a little surprised to hear the news.
