Siheyuan: Struggle in the Red Era

Lin Baoyan didn’t care much about what would happen to Liu Po’s and her two families. She didn’t have to put much effort into the whole incident and it was over.

The ones who really pay attention to this are Li Xia and her colleagues.

He was still proud of the protection work he had done well, but in the blink of an eye, he turned the target into the poor heroine in the rumor. How could he not be angry?

Well, in just three days, the rumor has been distorted. Lin Baoyan has become a poor girl whose life was almost ruined by a scumbag. Even the school teacher came over after hearing about it to see if she was really like the rumor said, and was almost forced to get married. If something really happened, the school would stand up for her.

Lin Baoyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly explained to the teacher what happened and what happened. "Those two families have been detained. Because there are other cases under investigation, they haven't been sentenced yet. As for me, I'm fine. From beginning to end, except for swearing at someone, I never got close to those two families."

That's right, Li Xia persuaded Aunt Fang, and the two of them went to find the girl from the Bai family. After explaining clearly the evil things that her sister-in-law and her family had done to Li Xiang and their current detention by the police, the girl immediately ran to the police station to report it.

Afterwards, my sister-in-law and her family were locked up and investigated.

The girl from the Bai family had been forced to marry into this family for several years. After marrying in, she had been abused by the family. She had long been holding a grudge and wanted revenge.

She was a smart person, and she knew she couldn't deal with this family openly, so she planned to collect more evidence secretly. This kind of family couldn't have committed only this one crime, they must have done other bad things.

She usually paid more attention to the family's words and actions, and recorded all the abnormalities regardless of whether she saw them or not, waiting for the opportunity to take down this family of villains and avenge herself.

Now the news brought by Aunt Fang and Li Xia gave her hope. She didn't even need to think and reported it immediately.

When she reported it, she shared everything she had observed, whether it was useful or not.

Some of these things are very suspicious in the eyes of the police.

So, now these two families, especially Uncle Liu, have been placed under quarantine and investigation.

Li Xia had guessed at the beginning that Mrs. Liu had deliberately spread rumors in the street to set up this trap, most likely targeting the professor behind Lin Baoyan. The evidence now being found is slowly moving towards this guess.

After seeing off the enthusiastic teacher, Li Xiang thought that she could not stay in the small courtyard any longer as life there was too torturous.

Ever since they stopped the two families of Liu Pozi from breaking down the door and robbing people, the neighbors liked to come to Lin Baoyan to chat. Anyway, the college entrance examination is over now, and Li Xiang is said to be a foregone conclusion. So no matter which school she goes to in the future, she will be a college student.

Of course, it is a good deal for the neighbors to build a good relationship with a future college student.

Most importantly, this incident by Mrs. Liu made everyone notice one thing: Li Xiang is now an adult, she is rich and beautiful, and has a bright future! What are you waiting for if you don’t bring such an excellent girl to your home!

As a result, recently many aunties and grandmas have come to Lin Baoyan to chat about family matters. While chatting, they would also introduce one of their relatives.

For example:

"My eldest sister-in-law's cousin just graduated from technical secondary school this year and was assigned to work as a technician at the instrument factory. He is so handsome and tall."

or:

"My cousin's youngest son graduated from high school last year and joined the Second Commercial Bureau. He is now working as a secretary for my uncle. Although his status is a bit low, he has a bright future. He is said to be promoted after the Chinese New Year."

also:

"I have a nephew from my mother's side who has been in the army for a few years. He was selected to go to a military academy in the first half of the year. It is said that after he is released and promoted again, he can apply for his family to accompany him in the army."

Lin Baoyan smiled bitterly.

So once she turns eighteen, everyone around her will realize that she is an adult and can get married, and they will start introducing her to someone, right?

These neighbors were all the ones who spoke up for her and helped her block the two families from escaping. They were all very kind to her, and now they were all kind enough to introduce her to the high-quality young men in their families. She really had to thank them while politely refusing.

This kind of life is too hard for her, a homebody who likes to be alone. No, she has to move to another place. If she continues like this, the hair on her head will be scratched bald.

After telling Monkey, she took Monkey's ride to the headquarters the next day. Coincidentally, it was time for the mid-year physical examination.

Lin Baoyan breathed a sigh of relief after moving into the dormitory where she had lived before.

She really couldn't stand the neighbors' excessive enthusiasm.

Why are there so many aunties who like to act as matchmakers? What about the distance between people?

Lying on the table like a dead fish, Lin Baoyan didn't want to do anything today.

"Puff~"

Someone is laughing outside the window.

Lin Baoyan looked up and saw a face that was familiar yet a little unfamiliar. It was Wu Zhi.

"Brother Wu!"

After being stunned for a while, Lin Baoyan screamed and jumped up happily.

Wu Zhi knocked on the window and said, "What are you doing? Are you being bullied for lying there like this?"

He rushed to the door and opened it. Lin Baoyan leaned against the door and smiled: "Brother Wu, it's really you. You're back!"

Wu Zhi crossed his arms over his chest, looked Lin Baoyan up and down, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for several years. You have grown up."

Lin Baoyan said with a smile: "Of course not, we haven't seen each other for almost three years, I must have grown up, you see, I have finished the college entrance examination this year, and I will be a college student soon."

"Yes, I will be a college student in the future."

Wu Zhi agreed with a smile and followed Lin Baoyan into the house.

Lin Baoyan picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea for Wu Zhi, asking repeatedly, "How long can you stay? Do you live here too?"

Wu Zhi leaned back in his chair as he did before, crossed his legs, tilted his head and said, "I heard that you had finished the college entrance examination, so I came back to see how our comrade Xiao Lin did. But, why do you always run into inexplicable things, tut tut." After he finished speaking, he was full of disgust.

He knew that Lin Baoyan was taking the college entrance examination this year.

In my previous life, I had seen the grand scene of parents sending their children to the college entrance examination, so I wanted to go and send my little girl off to take the exam as well. Unfortunately, time was tight and I ultimately failed to make it.

That would be fine, but what did he hear after he came back? He was almost kidnapped by someone? What are the people in charge of security here for? Was it because of that so-called professor from the Agricultural University?

The manpower strength here is still too weak. Look at this girl. She has encountered danger twice since she left Place 9.
