Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

"Later, Qingshan was placed under quarantine for investigation. My father and I looked for many of our old comrades-in-arms, but none of them could rescue Qingshan." As she spoke, my aunt began to wipe away her tears again.

Mr. Shen also sighed nearby, "Later, an old comrade of mine secretly sent me a letter saying that Qingshan's problems had been investigated and he would be sent to the countryside for reform in the next few days."

"The logistics department of the military district also notified us to leave the military district compound as soon as possible." Mr. Shen pointed to the empty house and continued, "Everything in the house has been moved away by the logistics department. Tianyi, you came at a lucky time. If you come tomorrow, you won't be able to find us."

"Grandpa, aunt, have you rented a house outside?"

Aunt Shen shook her head. "Housing is in short supply right now. It's not easy to rent one. My dad and I plan to build a shack in the suburbs and live there first."

"Hey, why don't you contact my parents?"

"No matter what, I can't let you live in a shack!" Li Tianyi sighed.

After hearing this, Mr. Shen shook his head and said, "We can't let your family get in trouble. If you don't deal with us now, who knows what will happen in the future?"

The room fell silent for a moment. Li Tianyi thought for a while, then said, "Pack your things first, and then stay at my house."

Just as Mr. Shen and his aunt were about to refuse, they were interrupted by Li Tianyi, "Grandpa, listen to me first. After I settle you down, I will contact my superiors to see if my uncle can be transferred to the northeast. It would be best if it is close to me so that it will be convenient for me to take care of him."

"And you don't have to stay in Sijiu City anymore. Once your uncle's matter is settled, I will contact Xiaoxue and ask her to rent a house near the military area. You can move there. No one will cause trouble for you there."

Mr. Shen and his aunt looked at each other. Li Tianyi’s idea was certainly good. It would allow them to take care of Qingshan and avoid trouble. But would this bring trouble to Li Tianyi?

"Tianyi, will this put you in danger?" my aunt asked worriedly.

Li Tianyi didn't know if she had such a big reputation with her superiors, but she wanted to give it a try. "Aunt, I'm fine. Even if this is done, it won't affect me much."

"Okay, aunt, let's pack up quickly. I have a car here. I will take you home after we finish packing. I only have one day off today and will start working again tomorrow."

Mr. Shen and my aunt didn't say anything else. They stood up and started packing their things.

As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. Soon the Shen family had packed up everything. After loading all the things into the car, my aunt looked back at the house where she had lived for more than ten years, turned around and got into the car.

The car quickly drove out of the compound. The neighbors who were watching just now all went out. Several people gathered together and chattered endlessly. The Shen family's affairs sounded the alarm for them. These people didn't dare to say a word outside, for fear of being caught.

The car soon drove to Nanluoguxiang Hutong. Li Tianyi walked into the yard. His younger sister, who was resting in the house, heard the noise and went out to check. Seeing that it was her elder brother who came back, she hurried forward to ask, but was stopped by Li Tianyi.

"Little sister, go find your parents and come over."

The younger sister ran out of the yard sensibly. As soon as she walked out of the door, she saw her sister-in-law's grandfather and aunt. The younger sister greeted them politely and then went to the courtyard.

Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhou helped move the luggage into the yard, while Li Tianyi asked Mr. Shen and his aunt to sit for a while and make arrangements after Li's father and mother came.

In fact, there was not much in Mr. Shen and his family's luggage, just a few sets of underwear and two quilts. As for money, passbooks and so on, my aunt kept them close to her. As for other things, they had all been confiscated.

Soon, Li's father and mother came into the yard. The two families greeted each other. Then Li Tianyi told them what happened and his ideas. Li's father and mother agreed with him.

As my aunt listened, she started crying again. Ever since the incident, both her former comrades-in-arms and relatives who had come to visit had avoided their family like the plague. She didn't expect that the Li family would help them so much.

Mother Li held her aunt's hand and comforted her softly. Elder Shen and Father Li were also discussing something. When Li Tian saw that the luggage had been packed and it was getting late, he said, "Mom and Dad, please help grandpa and aunt clean up the room. I'm leaving soon."

"Grandpa, wait for my news. Don't worry. If I can't get out, I will ask my guards to deliver the letter."

The family sent Li Tianyi out of the house and did not go home until the car drove out of the alley.

Li Tianyi was not in the mood to go anywhere else, so he asked Xiao Zhao to drive back to the factory.

Back in the dormitory, Li Tianyi thought until midnight, and finally he decided to trouble the Northeast.

So the next day when he got to work, Li Tianyi found the factory manager and explained his purpose. The factory manager considerately left the office and left space for Li Tianyi to call.

After the factory director went out, Li Tianyi called the office of General Sun. When the call was connected, Li Tianyi introduced himself and then told the story. General Sun pondered for a while before agreeing to give it a try.

It turned out that Li Tianyi wanted to ask Commander Sun to contact his superiors to see if Uncle Shen's place of demotion could be changed to a village near the military region. He didn't need Commander Sun to use his connections or ask for help, he just asked Commander Sun to reflect his request to his superiors.

Commander Sun put down the phone and smoked for a long time in the office before he made up his mind to help Li Tianyi. So he picked up the phone and contacted his superiors.

After hanging up the phone, Commander Sun finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although his superior did not give a precise answer, from his tone, he could tell that he had already considered Li Tianyi's request.

The superiors in Sijiu City also sent people to retrieve Shen Qingshan's information files and found out that he was a man who spoke too quickly and complained a few words, and was reported by his political enemies. That's why he was demoted. The place of demotion was in the south, but he had not been taken away yet.

Since it is not a big problem, and Li Tianyi did not say that Shen Qingshan should be reinstated to his original position, but just changed his location, this is easy to handle.

Ever since Shen Qingshan was placed under quarantine for investigation, a person has been assigned to his position. It was originally because some people disliked him and he was getting in the way of others that they demoted him.

Within two days, the superiors notified Commander Sun that Shen Qingshan's matter had been settled and his assigned place was a place called Qianjin Battalion near the military region. However, because of Li Tianyi's plea, he lost the opportunity to be promoted to the rank of major general.

Commander Sun felt sorry for Li Tianyi and mentioned this matter when notifying Li Tianyi. However, Li Tianyi didn't care. He thought it was not like he was incapable of research and development. He had plenty of opportunities to strive for the rank of major general or higher.
