Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

After leaving the detention center, Wang Xia separated from the two comrades from the district. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when Wang Xia rode her bicycle back to the subdistrict office. It was only half an hour before the end of get off work. Wang Xia parked her bicycle and went directly to the place where the subdistrict office stored the archive materials. She retrieved the form for the class registration of that year, sat directly on the chair in the archive room, and read it carefully.

Wang Xia has been the director of the subdistrict office for many years and is very familiar with the situation in this area. Although Wang Xia found some problems in other places, they were not as serious as the one in Wu Futian's charge. In other words, Wu Futian gained a lot of benefits when registering the ingredients.

Wang Xia took out a pen and paper and picked out all the problematic ones. She worked until six o'clock in the evening before leaving the subdistrict office.

"Dad, what are you so happy about? You've been so happy since you came back from the street office this afternoon. Tell me about it so I can be happy too!" Yan Jiekuang peeled a candy and put it in his mouth. Yan Bugui said, "I went to the street office to deliver a radio this afternoon."

Yan Jiekuang said, "I know about this!" Then he asked, "What's the matter?!"

Yan Bugui said: "When I went to deliver the radio, I saw Liu Haizhong going to see Director Wang. I don't know what he said to Director Wang. Then Director Wang got busy. I guess it's very likely that Liu Haizhong went to Director Wang and told him about the deaf old lady."

When Yan Jiekuang heard Yan Bugui mention the deaf old lady, he thought of He Daqing and asked, "Dad, you know the most about the registration of our hospital's composition. Is there anything fishy going on in our hospital?!"

Yan Bugui smiled mysteriously and said, "Let me show you something." After that, Yan Bugui stood up, walked to a cabinet not far away, opened it, and took out something tightly wrapped in kraft paper. He walked to Yan Jiekuang, opened the kraft paper, took out the thing inside, handed it to Yan Jiekuang, and said, "Look for yourself!"

Yan Jiekuang took the thing from Yan Bugui's hand and looked at it. He was shocked. Yan Jiekuang asked, "Dad, where did this come from?!"

Yan Bugui said: "Back then, I assisted the military control committee in registering the composition of our hospital. I don't know what I was thinking at the time, I just copied a copy. Later, when I checked the composition registration, I found that the composition of several people in our hospital had changed."

Yan Jiekuang asked, "Dad, why aren't Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady on the list?!"

"Not only Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady, but even Xu Wude doesn't have it." Yan Bugui took the thing from Yan Jiekuang's hand and continued, "You exposed the identity of the deaf old lady. I guess you have stirred up a hornet's nest this time. Yi Zhonghai doesn't dare to deal with you in the courtyard. Be careful that he might attack you outside."

Yan Jiekuang smiled and replied, "Dad, don't worry! It won't be easy for Yi Zhonghai to hurt me."

At the same time, at He Yuzhu's house, He Yuzhu was sitting alone at the table, drinking. After Liu Lan coaxed her son to sleep, she walked over to He Yuzhu, picked up the bottle, poured wine into the glass in front of He Yuzhu, and asked, "What are you thinking about?! You look so depressed?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "I was thinking about what Yan Jiekuang said this morning."

Liu Lan said, "Since you can't figure it out, we'll have a holiday in two days. Let's take Yu Shui and the child to Baocheng and ask your father in person."

He Yuzhu glanced at Liu Lan, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, then asked, "How can you be sure that we can see my father when we go to Baocheng?!"

Liu Lan smiled and said, "You are really stupid! We are going to my house for the New Year? As long as we leave the courtyard, they know where we are going? As long as we don't tell them, they won't know. No one will telegraph Baocheng in advance."

He Yuzhu thought about it and felt that what Liu Lan said made sense. He smiled and said, "My wife is still smart!"

Liu Lan asked, "What if your father wants to come back with us?!"

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said, "My father will not come back with us. Even if he wants to come back, the White Widow will not agree."

Liu Lan said, "It's hard to say. Maybe not in the past few years, but now the White Widow's two sons are grown up. The White Widow doesn't need your father to help her raise her sons."

"Tsk!" He Yuzhu smiled nonchalantly and said, "I don't have to raise my son, but I still have to raise my grandson. Those two bastards are also of marriageable age. Don't they have to get married?! No money for marriage?! But now that you remind me of this, let's be honest. If the old man comes back, it will be a hassle to live with him."

Liu Lan said, "I'll ask around when I'm at work tomorrow to see if there's anyone nearby who wants to rent out a house. If your father comes back with us, we'll rent him a place to live first. We'll figure out a way when the time comes. Have a drink first, and I'll go talk to Yu Shui about this."

"Okay! Go ahead! Be careful when you speak." He Yuzhu warned Liu Lan and thought to himself, "This daughter-in-law is really good except that she is a bit of a chatterbox!"

About half an hour later, Liu Lan came back. After Liu Lan sat down, He Yuzhu asked, "What?! Did you tell Yushui that girl?!"

Liu Lan replied, "It's agreed! In fact, the girl has always had her father in her heart. It's just that because of some things that happened in the past, she has some resentment in her heart and is unwilling to express it. I really don't know how you are as a big brother. You don't even know what your sister is thinking?! I really admire you. By the way, when I came back just now, I saw Yi Zhonghai and his wife went to the backyard."

He Yuzhu said: "I guess Yan Jiekuang's words hit the nail on the head. Just wait and see! The excitement in our courtyard is still to come!"

Then he turned his sight to the backyard. Yi Zhonghai and Liu Guiying arrived at the door of the deaf old lady. Without knocking, Yi Zhonghai opened the door and took his wife in. When the deaf old lady saw Yi Zhonghai and his wife coming, she snorted coldly and asked, "Zhonghai, how did Yan Jiekuang know about what happened back then?!"

Yi Zhonghai replied: "How should I know?! Maybe you have revealed your true identity before?!"

The deaf old lady said: "I usually don't go out of the house. I don't meet people from outside, so how could I be exposed?!"

Yi Zhonghai said: "I am not afraid of anything else now. I am just afraid that Liu Haizhong will expose this matter in order to become an official."

The deaf old lady said, "That was all handled with the help of Director Yang. Even if they want to investigate, they can only find Director Yang. For your case, I have already used his last favor. I guess Director Yang will not be able to protect me this time."

Yi Zhonghai said, "Old lady, even if he doesn't protect you, you are already so old, what can they do to you?! Can they really drag you out for criticism?! Besides, you were not the only one who tampered with your class status back then. If they really investigate, we will all be in trouble. What do you have to worry about?!"

The deaf old lady replied: "You don't understand! This is a different time. The situation back then was completely different from now. I never thought that I would fall for a kid when I'm old?!"

I don't know what the deaf old lady said to Yi Zhonghai and his wife. Anyway, Yi Zhonghai and his wife left the deaf old lady's place very quickly.
