Siheyuan: Struggle in the Red Era

The outside world is full of troubles, but Lin Baoyan just wants to study hard.

After school started, Lin Baoyan went to register with her schoolbag.

When the classes were divided, she was assigned to Class 2, Grade 1. Her deskmate was a little girl named Huang Xiaolan, who was two months younger than her. She was very outgoing and kept talking since they met.

In just half an hour, she learned from her deskmate what her parents did, what her uncle did, what her neighbor on the left did, and what her neighbor on the right did.

It's simply outrageous. She actually listed all the specific work and relationships of her family, her relatives, and the seven or eight neighbors around her home. If this fell into the ears of someone with ulterior motives, and they wanted to set up a trap to plot against these families, the success rate would be frighteningly high.

Lin Baoyan immediately interrupted Huang Xiaolan: "Huang Xiaolan, I have to go out for a while. Let's talk when I come back."

Huang Xiaolan said happily: "Okay, when you come back, I will tell you about my mother's workshop director."

Lin Baoyan glanced at the classmates who were gathered around listening to the gossip, and quickly ran out to find her homeroom teacher, Teacher Zhao.

She found the office, knocked on the door and said, "Report, I'm looking for Teacher Zhao."

Teacher Zhao said, "Come in, student, what do you want?"

There were other teachers in the office, and Lin Baoyan didn't care if she would be overheard. She said, "My deskmate has just talked about her own situation, her relatives' situation, and the situation of her neighbors in the past half an hour. Now she has even talked about the situation at the home of her mother's colleague at work. I think it is necessary to stop her."

Teacher Zhao was puzzled: "What's wrong with your classmate saying this? Why should we stop her?"

This is an era without privacy. Everyone's life is basically under the eyes of their neighbors. How many people are there in each family, where do they work, how much income is each month, how much is the expenditure, and other important points can all be calculated by neighbors. So, if you want to know something about a person, you only need to find her neighbors and ask around. It's easy to find out, and you may even know more about her than she herself.

This has resulted in everyone becoming accustomed to the leakage of this information.

Who wouldn't say a few words about how their neighbor's home is when chatting?

Now Lin Baoyan asked to stop a student and not allow her to say these things. No wonder Teacher Zhao didn't understand. Only Lin Baoyan, who came from later generations, knew how important these things were.

Lin Baoyan noticed that Teacher Zhao's attitude was not right, and soon realized this, and hurriedly said: "Teacher Zhao, my brother is a police officer. He once said that if a person's specific situation is known by someone with ulterior motives, it is very likely that they will be targeted and framed, and then they will be threatened and induced to do something that endangers national security."

Teacher Zhao disagreed: "There are only children here. It doesn't matter if they hear these things. Besides, your classmates are also children. What they know is known by everyone. It's okay to talk about it. Of course, you care about your neighbors and everyone, which is good. Well, class is about to start, you should go back quickly, the teacher also has to go to class."

Lin Baoyan had no choice but to return to the classroom in a bad mood. In the classroom, Huang Xiaolan was still talking: "My neighbor's relative works in the company cafeteria. There is a chef in their cafeteria. His cooking skills are very good, but his character is not very good. He always secretly takes things home from the cafeteria. Others in the cafeteria see the chef taking things, so they follow suit. Therefore, my neighbor's relative often has meat to eat. According to him, the meat tastes delicious."

Lin Baoyan thought to herself, you have a really sharp tongue. Now everyone knows that your neighbor’s relatives and his colleagues stole public property, and soon more people will know about it.

After reporting to the head teacher to no avail, Lin Baoyan gave up the idea of ​​reporting to the teacher again.

When Zhou Kangzhan came back in the evening, she told him about this during dinner.

"I don't know where my classmate knows so many things, but I think it's not good for her to talk about these things casually. For example, if someone uses this as a handle to threaten the chef to steal things for him, then wouldn't the neighbor's unit be stolen?"

Zhou Kangzhan narrowed his eyes and asked, "What unit does that chef belong to?"

"Huang Xiaolan said that the neighbor's relative worked in a pharmaceutical factory, and it was said that he often came to his relative to get internal drugs."

"Okay, when you go to school tomorrow, don't report this matter to the teacher again." Zhou Kangzhan advised.

Lin Baoyan nodded. It was obvious that Zhou Kangzhan was ready to intervene in this matter, so there was no need for her to waste time at school.

On the contrary, she planned to listen carefully to what Huang Xiaolan said next. If it was the same as today, it would be fine. But if it was something new, she would have to pay more attention and take more notes.

The next day at school, Huang Xiaolan started talking nonsense again during the break. This time, there were more people around listening to her than yesterday.

After listening for a while, Lin Baoyan was so impressed by Huang Xiaolan. What she said today was completely different from what she said yesterday!

This time it's about a neighbor's child who went to college. During the summer vacation, he often went out to play with his classmates at school. It is said that the school's foreign teacher also played with them, and that foreign teacher seemed to be a yellow-haired Japanese.

Lin Baoyan immediately perked up. Foreign teachers? College students? Traveling together?

She interrupted and provoked Huang Xiaolan: "Yellow-haired devils? Your neighbor's children can play with yellow-haired devils, don't be bragging."

Huang Xiaolan said unhappily, "I'm not bragging. I've seen that yellow-haired devil. His skin is as white as a ghost, his eyes are blue, and his hair is yellow and black, the same color as dog shit."

"YUE" Everyone felt disgusted when they heard her description.

"Really? I'm not bragging. That brother also said that the foreign teacher invited him to some dance party. They went to dance together. It was the kind of dance where a man and a woman hugged each other and danced."

"Ah~ It really is a man and a woman dancing together!" All the little listeners opened their mouths wide, feeling incredible.

"That's right," Huang Xiaolan said with disdain, "My mom found out and told me not to play with that brother, saying that he was not a righteous man and would definitely not end up well in the future."

Lin Baoyan's face turned serious. It was not normal for a foreign teacher to invite college students to the dance.

When I watched TV dramas before, it seemed that the Walking 500,000 liked to use this method to corrupt the relevant personnel.

She then asked Huang Xiaolan: "What grade is your neighbor's brother in? How come he is so familiar with the foreign teacher?"

Huang Xiaolan said: "I will graduate next year. I heard that I went to Shijingshan for internship at the beginning of this semester. After graduation, I think I will go to the Ministry of Industry."

"Shijingshan! Ministry of Industry!"

Although the group of children were still young, they grew up in a poor city and knew the importance of these two names. They immediately became envious of the neighbor brother.
