I accidentally entered the courtyard and became Qin Huairu

Qin Huairu and Director Yang came to a complex of red brick buildings. There were soldiers guarding the gate of the compound and the management was very strict.

After their identities were verified repeatedly, they were allowed in. The car stopped in front of a small western-style building, and Qin Huairu noticed that many vehicles were parked in front of the house.

She wondered, "It seems like there are a lot of people here today?" This question was soon answered.

She followed Director Yang into the yard, walked around a corridor, and saw a spacious reception room filled with about twenty or thirty people.

Here, Qin Huairu recognized some familiar faces at a glance, such as Director Wang of the Industrial Bureau, Deputy Minister Liu of the Organization Department, and so on.

The people in the room were all well-known figures. Qin Huairu knew some of them because they had drunk together at dances organized by the steel mill or at banquets!

Looking around, besides these people, Qin Huairu also saw an old man!

Qin Huairu's heart moved when she saw this person.

"Isn't this the big boss that Shazhu cooked for?"

While Qin Huairu was observing the people in the room, everyone was also observing her.

When they saw Qin Huairu, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.

Qin Huairu is no ordinary person now, and she is even a well-known figure in the Ministry of Industry!

I heard that the minister thinks highly of her!

Many of them also heard that the reason why Qin Huairu was valued and paid attention to was because she had participated in some mission. As for the specific reason, no one knew!

Qin Huairu's identity and status are no longer the same as before.

Not only does he serve as the propaganda chief of the steel rolling mill, he is also the only full-time translator in the factory.

In addition, she also serves as Director Yang's meeting stenographer.

Everyone knows that Qin Huairu is now highly regarded by some bigwigs in the Ministry of Industry! They are the ones who need to be trained!

Therefore, Director Yang valued her very much and treated her like a treasure.

Because of this reason, steel rolling mills have gained a lot of benefits.

Now Director Yang takes her with him wherever he goes.

Moreover, most of the people present have a deep friendship with Qin Huairu.

Either a dancing partner or a drinking buddy!

Some people even bought supplies during difficult times through Qin Huairu's connections!

Therefore, no one was particularly surprised to see her on an occasion like today.

"Xiao Qin is here! Come over and find a seat!"

At this time, Director Wang of the Industrial Bureau spoke with a smile.

Qin Huairu glanced at Director Yang, who nodded slightly to show his agreement. So, she found an empty seat with a smile on her face, sat down quietly, and waited patiently.

After more than ten minutes, two people walked in from outside.

The leader looked to be about sixty years old, with gray hair! He had a standard square face with deep wrinkles, small eyes but bright eyes, and wore a pair of glasses!

At first glance, the old man looks like a teacher who teaches and educates people, and appears to be very gentle.

However, Qin Huairu keenly noticed that this seemingly ordinary old man exuded a powerful aura of oppression, as if he was the one in power high above.

Behind the old man, followed closely a young man who was also wearing glasses.

Apparently, he should be the old man's secretary.

When the old man walked into the room, the leaders who were originally sitting on the sofa stood up one after another, just like primary school students seeing their teacher, and stood up respectfully.

"minister!"

The old man waved his hand at everyone, "Everyone, take a seat!"

After everyone sat down, the old man looked around and took a look.

When I saw Qin Huairu, the only lesbian.

He frowned visibly, but then seemed to have thought of something!

He immediately asked with a smile! "That one must be Comrade Qin Huairu!"

Qin Huairu didn't expect that such a leader would know her.

Without thinking too much, I stood up quickly.

"Hello, Minister!"

The old man nodded! He waved at her! "Sit down!"

Qin Huairu smiled and nodded, then sat obediently in the chair.

"Comrade Qin Huairu, I still know!"

"Your Director Yang has mentioned you to me many times!"

"Not only are you a good singer, you can also cook deliciously!"

"I am also proficient in four foreign languages: English, Russian, French and German!"

"A lot of important information about the steel mill was translated by you!"

"Xiao Qin! You are really a versatile person, right?"

"I have asked your factory director for you many times, hoping to transfer you to the department, but your factory director Yang blocked my request every time!"

"I still feel like there's a fishbone stuck in my heart!" said the old man, and then he laughed.

Qin Huairu felt very embarrassed by what the old man said, and she could only look to Director Yang for help.

Director Yang quickly tried to smooth things over! "Minister Gu, there is nothing we can do about it. This is the only treasure we have in our steel mill. Please give it to us and keep it!"

The old man burst into laughter after hearing this! "Okay, okay, I'll keep it for you!"

"But let me be clear. If you don't want Comrade Qin Huairu anymore, just tell me and I'll transfer her to the department!"

"We have a lot of translation work here!"

"Comrade Qin Huairu can better display her talents when she comes to the ministry!"

"Okay, let's get back to the topic!" The old man said, and his face suddenly darkened.

"Comrades, the situation is very serious now, isn't it?"

The old man's words instantly made the air in the room a little colder.

When the old man started speaking, Qin Huairu took out her notes and started taking notes!

The old man looked at everyone in silence, sighed inwardly, and looked a little disappointed.

"Everyone, the battle has just begun and the struggle continues!"

"The enemy is not only outside, we have a lot of problems inside as well!"

"I hope everyone will remember what I said today!"

"Keep a clear head and don't stand in line blindly!"

"What is right now may become wrong later!"

"The mistake we make now can also be the right one! Just because we can't prove something now doesn't mean we can't in the future!"

“Please, everyone, stick to your original intention and don’t forget your original intention!”

"Put more effort into your industrial business! Don't get involved in other things!"

"Put the grassroots people first in everything! No bureaucracy!"

Some of our comrades, some of us…”

During the meeting in the Red House!

Somewhere in the capital, in a small Western-style building.

Lou Zhenhua and his wife looked at each other and sat facing each other.

Lou Xiao'e's mother looked at Lou Zhenhua with a worried and unwilling expression.

"Really, are we going to get to that point?"

Lou Zhenhua's face was gloomy, as if covered by dark clouds. After a long time, he let out a long sigh, as if a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time finally erupted.

"Do you think I want to?" His voice was low, like a roar suppressed in his heart.

"What about my daughter and her husband?" Lou Zhenhua Xiao'e's mother's tone was full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Lou Zhenhua sighed and looked out the window, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness, as if he was a lonely boat lost in the vast ocean.

"I don't know what to do!" His voice was full of despair and helplessness, as if he was a puppet being teased by fate.

"But there is one thing, if we don't leave here, death will be waiting for us!"

"We have no other choice!" Lou Zhenhua's voice was full of helplessness and despair.

After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e's mother burst into sobbing, and her tears rolled down like pearls from a broken string.

"No, I'd rather die with my daughter!" Seeing her like this, Lou Zhenhua sighed repeatedly. His sighs were like heavy drumbeats, hitting Lou Xiao'e's mother's heart again and again.

"Stop making trouble. If it doesn't work, take Xiao'e and He Xiao away together!" Lou Zhenhua's voice was full of helplessness and determination.

When Lou Xiao'e's mother heard this, she slowly stopped crying. A glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, as if she saw a ray of light in the darkness.

"What about the pillar?" Lou Xiao'e's mother asked

Lou Zhenhua shook his head helplessly! "I can't care less!"

"Being able to bring Xiao'e and He Xiao with us has exceeded our expectations!"

"Zhu Zi, I can only apologize to him!" Lou Zhenhua's voice was full of guilt.

"But this is also good. Without us, the pillar will be less dangerous and won't be implicated because of us!" Lou Zhenhua consoled himself.

After hearing what Lou Zhenhua said, Lou Xiao'e's mother fell silent. There were complex emotions flashing in her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.

After a long time, he finally spoke! "Then when are you going to tell Xiao'e?"

"Speak?" Lou Zhenhua sighed helplessly.

"Your silly daughter, what's going on, don't you know? Once she finds out, will she still go with us?" Lou Zhenhua shook his head and looked at his wife speechlessly.

"Besides, if she knew, she could put down the pillar!"

"If they start to make noises again, we won't be able to leave!"

After hearing what Lou Zhenhua said, Lou Xiao'e's mother was speechless.

After a long time, he asked weakly, "What are you going to do?"

Lou Zhenhua was also troubled when he heard his wife ask this question. He frowned and thought for a long time before speaking. "When the time comes, you bring Xiao'e back and let her take the child with her!"

"We will leave as soon as they arrive. As for the others, we will talk about them after we get to Tianjin!"

"When will you leave?"

Lou Zhenhua shook his head! "I still need to do some things now, we'll leave after I finish!"

After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e's mother nodded and sighed, "It's just hard for Zhuzi, the child?"

Seeing her like this, Lou Zhenhua sighed helplessly!

More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye. In the past few days, He Yuzhu always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell exactly where the problem was.

It felt like his heart was shrouded in a fog, making him feel a little irritable and uneasy.

Finally, one evening, the sky was covered with thick dark clouds, like a huge black curtain, pressing heavily over the city. Such weather was extremely depressing, making it difficult to breathe and making people feel heavy-hearted.

He Yuzhu stood in the yard, looking up at the dark clouds, feeling a sense of inexplicable anxiety and boredom in his heart.

He frowned and looked up at the sky.

Suddenly there was a loud thunder and lightning streaked across the sky, as if it was going to tear the sky apart.

The sky seemed to be torn open, and raindrops the size of soybeans slid down in an instant, like tears from the sky.

The heavy rain poured down like a river bursting its banks, as if it was going to drown the entire world, like the end of the world.

He Yuzhu stood under the eaves, feeling inexplicably worried, as if a hand was scratching his heart.

Without thinking too much, he went back to the house, put on his raincoat, pushed his bicycle and walked out of the courtyard like a soldier about to go to the battlefield.

Qin Huairu happened to see this scene!

"Zhu Zi, what are you doing on a rainy day?"

He Yuzhu chuckled! "Sister Qin, Xiao'e took He Xiao and Huaihua back to her mother's house!"

"I have to go and welcome them, before anything else happens on the way!"

When Qin Huairu heard that Huaihua had also been taken away by Lou Xiaoe, her heart tightened and she became more nervous than ever before.

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you!"

After saying that, he went back to the house and told Banggeng to stay at home obediently. Then he put on his raincoat, pushed his bicycle, and followed He Yuzhu towards the small Western-style building where the Lou family lived.

But when they arrived at the place, they saw that the Lou family's usually bright house was now pitch black, as if no one was home.

He Yuzhu took a few quick steps and arrived at the gate. He wanted to break down the door, but when his fist landed, a gap inexplicably opened in the door.

Qin Huairu also realized something was wrong at this time.

"Zhu Zi, come into the house and take a look!"

As the two talked, they pushed the door and walked in.

In the Lou family's living room, there were just as many pieces of furniture as usual, as if nothing had changed.

However, if you look carefully, you can find that some valuable items have disappeared.

He Yuzhu rushed up to the second floor like the wind.

Qin Huairu looked at everything in front of her, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. She seemed to have thought of something.

"No way, is the Lou family being investigated, or is it running away?"

"But, if you want to run, then run. Where did you put the locust flowers?"

Qin Huairu panicked instantly, feeling very upset.

After searching upstairs for a while, He Yuzhu walked downstairs in a daze.

His eyes were empty and lifeless, as if he had lost his soul, and he was holding a letter in his hand!

Qin Huairu took a few quick steps and snatched the letters away.

This is a letter that Lou Xiao'e left for He Yuzhu.

The content of the letter was roughly as follows, "Zhu Zi, I'm sorry, something happened to my family suddenly, and I can only take He Xiao and Huai Hua to seek refuge elsewhere. Don't worry, I will come back with the children after a while. Tell Sister Qin that I will take good care of Huai Hua..."

Qin Huairu looked at the letter and was stunned as if struck by lightning.

"What the hell is this!"

"Why did you take Sophora japonica away?"

"Is there something wrong with this plot?"

Qin Huairu came to her senses and looked at He Yuzhu, who had already burst into tears.

A grown man crying so sadly!

His tears rolled down like beads from a broken string, as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances and pain.

Qin Huairu felt a little bit sorry for what she saw.

"Zhu Zi, why are you crying? Didn't Xiao E say that she would be back with the child after a while?"

He Yuzhu shook his head, his voice was tearful, like a wounded little animal.

"Sister Qin, Xiao'e's family must have encountered something serious, otherwise she wouldn't leave without telling me!"

"Sister Qin, tell me, what big thing has happened to the Lou family?"

"No, I want to go find them!"

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he ran out like a madman, like the wind.

By the time Qin Huairu reacted and chased after him, He Yuzhu had disappeared.
