Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

The Jia family lives in the central courtyard of the quadrangle.

Qin Huairu was the only one left in the huge room, sitting on a chair and racking his brains to think of a solution.

But as time passed, Qin Huairu's frown did not relax, but became deeper and deeper.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but a look of farewell suddenly flashed across Qin Huairu’s face.

Walk out of Jia's house and close the door.

She ran straight to his and Yi Zhonghai's home across the street, and after groping behind a cabinet in the corner for a few times, she quickly found a cloth bag.

When he opened the cloth bag, he found a passbook, a handful of banknotes, and several Great Unity banknotes inside.

This was the private money Qin Huairu had saved over the past few years. There were more than 600 yuan in the passbook, and there was still more than 100 yuan left. It was her income for most of the year, and she planned to deposit it into the bank in a few days.

Now it seems that I have no chance to deposit them in the bank.

He counted the money and bills and put them all into his pocket. Then he wrapped the passbook into a cloth bag and hid it behind the cabinet.

He left the Yi family only after confirming that everything was alright, and quickly disappeared into the courtyard with more than a hundred yuan in his hand.

…………

The steel mill action team, Yi Zhonghai and Bang Geng were separated and locked in two different rooms.

Team leader Zhou Jiandong is being scolded in Director Li's office and has not returned yet.

But several deputy captains also knew that they had gotten into a big trouble today, and whether they could escape from today's trouble depended on Bang Geng.

So they returned to the office and put Banggeng under close guard, not allowing anyone to see him. They planned to wait for the captain to return from Director Li before thinking of a solution.

Yi Zhonghai was not directly involved in this matter, although Director Li asked the action team to investigate him.

But the action team is now thinking about how to solve today's disaster, so no one is paying attention to Yi Zhonghai. They just lock him up in a room and let two team members watch him and no one cares about him anymore.

Qin Huairu hurried to the action team's office. At first, he wanted to manage the relationship and take a look at Banggeng first. After all, Banggeng was his biological son.

As a result, after spending ten dollars, the other party still did not agree to let me go to see Bang Geng.

With no other choice, Qin Huairu could only settle for the next best thing and spend money to meet Yi Zhonghai.

Because Yi Zhonghai was not taken seriously by the action team, Qin Huairu spent ten dollars only to see Yi Zhonghai with a look of regret on his face.

"Old Yi... didn't you say that we can definitely defeat Wang Dong this time? Even if something unexpected happens, it won't affect you and Bang Geng?"

"Now what is going on."

"The action team not only arrested Bang Geng, but also you..."

"Now I am the only one left in the entire Jia and Yi families. If something happens to you, what should I do in the future?"

Yi Zhonghai frowned and replied: "Huai Ru..."

"I still can't figure out why Director Li wanted to arrest me and why he wanted the action team to investigate me."

"What I said in the yard was clearly to excuse him, to help the action team, and to maintain his dignity in the steel mill."

"As a result, Director Li would rather lose face himself and let the action team make mistakes and bear the responsibility in order to protect Wang Dong."

"Could it be that Wang Dong has some leverage over Director Li? Otherwise, why would Director Li go to such great lengths to protect Wang Dong?"

Qin Huairu doesn't have time to analyze these things with Yi Zhonghai now. He only wants to rescue Banggeng and Yi Zhonghai.

One is his own son, and the other is his fortune tree. Both of them are indispensable. As for Jia Zhang, she did not commit any serious mistakes in the courtyard. At most, she would be locked up in a small dark room by the security department for a few days and then released. It was not worth Qin Huairu to make connections for this.

He frowned and asked Qin Huairu: "Old Yi..."

"Let's not discuss this for now."

"Think about how to rescue you and Banggeng first."

"I spent a whole twenty dollars of my own pocket money to come see you, and I can only stay here for twenty minutes."

"Your mind works quickly..."

"Think of a solution quickly... I really can't think of a solution outside."

Yi Zhonghai did not respond immediately, but frowned and fell into deep thought, recalling what had just happened in the front yard of the courtyard, trying to find a breakthrough through Director Li's words and actions.

"There is..."

Two minutes later, a look of surprise suddenly flashed across Yi Zhonghai's face, and he looked at Qin Huairu and said.

"Captain Zhou of the Action Team wants to reduce his responsibility and will definitely push the blame onto Bang Geng."

"He said that the entire action team was tricked by Bang Geng, and even he himself was tricked by Bang Geng, and then he established the evidence that Bang Geng framed Wang Dong."

"You must find a way to meet Bang Geng."

"He was bitten to death by a stick stalk. He asked someone to write the report to the action team. It has nothing to do with me."

"As long as I am released by the action team, we can pay the money and find people, and we will definitely be able to rescue Bang Geng from the action team."

"I'm telling you the truth. The deaf old lady in the backyard gave me something before she died. She told me that if I encounter any difficulties in the future, I can take the thing to a leader and he will do something for me."

"I originally wanted to keep this favor for myself."

"But if Bang Geng takes this responsibility himself, I will do this favor for Bang Geng."

Seeing Qin Huairu frowning and lost in thought, Yi Zhonghai knew that this woman was trying to be clever again.

Changing the subject, he continued, "If Bang Geng doesn't do what I say."

"Tell the action team that I hired someone to write the report letter, so that I can get involved. Then not only will the action team hold me accountable, but Bang Geng will not be able to escape either."

"After all, the action team found evidence from Bang Geng to frame Wang Dong, and many people saw it. Just based on this point, the action team, who are eager to shirk responsibility, will not let him go easily."

"By then, Bang Geng and I will both be sent to prison for this matter and lose our jobs at the steel mill. But there is only one favor, and I will definitely use it on myself by then."

"So Bang Geng must take all the responsibility for what happened today, and I must not be involved."

"Only if I leave the action team safely, will the favor that the deaf old lady gave me be used on Bang Geng. Otherwise, jail time will surely be waiting for Bang Geng."

Qin Huairu did have the idea of ​​asking Banggeng to put all the blame on Yi Zhonghai.

Although Yi Zhonghai said that he was hiding a favor that the deaf old lady had given him, no one knew whether this was true or not.

As long as Banggeng comes out of the action team, even if this favor is fake and Yi Zhonghai deliberately deceived him, it will be Yi Zhonghai who will go to jail, and it will have nothing to do with Banggeng.

But as soon as this thought appeared, it was crushed by Yi Zhonghai.

The evidence against Wang Dong was found on Bang Geng. Even without the report, Bang Geng would not be able to escape the blame. Even if Yi Zhonghai had this favor, he would use it on himself. Bang Geng would definitely be imprisoned. (End of this chapter)
