The Beginning of a Courtyard House: Sixty Years of Internal Strength

Li Jianguo's expression turned somewhat grim as he recalled the conversation between the two police officers.

Those two bastards really know how to get themselves killed.

I must take some time to give them a good thrashing.

He deliberately locked himself up for a while longer.

"Yaoyao, I'll have to stay in the detention center for a while this time."

"You should send me a set of bedding."

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Jianguo quickly used his internal energy to transmit his voice.

"Yaoyao, after you go out, I'll put a small gold ingot in your pocket."

Take this to my dad and have him give it to Li Huaide, the deputy director of the steel rolling mill.

Let the steel mill put some pressure on the police station to release me as soon as possible.

After you're done, come to the alley near the police station, and I'll add you to my spatial storage.

After all, you threatened Qin Huairu before, so I'm afraid the police will arrest you too.

You're so beautiful, what bad ideas might the police have?

I'm afraid I might lose control and kill someone in a fit of rage.

Yao Yao also looked at Li Jianguo with a determined expression.

"Okay, Brother Jianguo, I understand."

After Yao Yao left the police station, she touched her pocket and found a gold ingot.

She went back to courtyard number 95 first, ignoring the strange looks from the beasts in the courtyard.

Yao Yao found Li Xin.

"Li Xin, you should stay at home for the next few days."

I need to talk to my dad; I need his help with something.

Then I need to go back to my hometown and try to find someone to help Jianguo get out as soon as possible.

"My sister said nervously."

"Sister-in-law, will something happen to my brother? How long will he be sentenced to?"

"Don't be nervous, the police have no evidence at all."

They'll only be detained for a few days.

However, the conditions inside are too poor, so we need to find someone.

Sister-in-law, I'll go home with you, so I can talk to Dad about it.

Yao Yao still refused.

"You should look at this house instead."

There are far too many beasts in the yard.

I wonder if they'll cause any trouble.

If they resort to violence, call the police immediately.

Li Xin nodded in agreement.

"Okay, sister-in-law, you go ahead and do your best. I'll take good care of the house."

In the end, Yao Yao went to the Li family.

"Mom, is Dad home now?"

Li's mother looked at Yao Yao and said.

"Yaoyao, your dad's not here. Is something wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong. Is he at the factory right now?"

Where is the factory located? I'll go find it.

Li's mother looked at Yao Yao's anxious expression.

"The second furniture factory on No. 5 Street in the east of the city."

"You can go directly there."

After getting the address, Yao Yao went straight out the door.

Upon arriving at the furniture factory, they informed the security guard, who quickly called Li's father out.

When Li's father saw Yao Yao, he said something strange.

"Daughter-in-law, what brings you here? Why have you come all the way to the factory?"

"Dad, let's talk over here."

After the two walked to a corner, Yao Yao couldn't wait to start talking.

He recounted the whole story of Qin Huairu to Li's father.

Mr. Li was also a little angry.

"Isn't it just that there aren't enough houses to live in?"

Is this brat even doing anything human?

Threatening someone over a house.

Yao Yao was a little embarrassed and quickly changed the subject.

"Dad, the main thing now is to get Li Jianguo out as soon as possible."

"It's a year of famine, and it's very difficult inside."

Mr. Li said, his anger still not appeased.

"That brat, did he say what to do?"

Since there's no evidence, it wouldn't hurt to detain him for a few days if all else fails.

Let him suffer a little to teach him a lesson.

Yao Yao quickly said.

"Dad, this is a gold ingot."

Jianguo means he hopes you will go to the steel rolling mill.

Find Li Huaide, the factory director, who is in charge of logistics.

Tell him to call the police station in the name of the steel rolling mill.

If there's no evidence, release them as soon as possible.

Mr. Li nodded.

"Okay, wait here for me for a moment, I'll go ask for leave now."

Mr. Li turned around and went into the furniture factory.

After coming out, Yao Yao handed the gold ingot to Li's father.

"Dad, you go by yourself."

Jianguo also gave me another instruction; you can do it yourself.

Mr. Li also sighed helplessly.

"Daughter-in-law, you've really worked hard."

I really didn't expect this brat to cause so much trouble.

"It's alright, it's not hard work, it's not a big deal."

I'll be going now.

Mr. Li nodded and said.

"Okay, go ahead, I'll go to the steel mill now."

The two then parted ways.

Following Li Jianguo's instructions, Yao Yao went home and got a new set of bedding.

They went directly to the vicinity of the police station.

First, they handed the bedding to the police at the local police station, and then wandered around the alleyways aimlessly.

Li Jianguo had been monitoring the area around the police station.

They found Yao Yao very quickly.

Seize an opportunity when there is no one around.

He directly put Yao Yao into his spatial dimension.

Li Jianguo was relieved; at least Yao Yao wouldn't get into trouble.

In the morning, two police officers, Lao Sun and Lao Zhang, went to the street office first.

Could you please tell me the address of Qin Huairu's hometown?

We boarded the bus and set off.

Qin Family Village is not too far from Beijing.

It took an hour to get to Qin Family Village.

The two reached the entrance of the village but did not see any Red Guards.

They all look like they're starving.

They were also sighing a bit.

Although they were also very sad, as ordinary police officers, there was nothing they could do.

The two finally encountered a villager.

He took out his identification and said.

"Hello fellow villager, we are from Sijiucheng Police Station."

I'd like to ask where your village chief lives?

We need to talk to him.

The villager glanced at the certificate; although he was illiterate, he recognized the national flag.

"The village chief is usually at the village committee office. Let me take you there."

After saying that, the villager led the way.

We arrived at the neighborhood committee quickly.

The villagers started shouting as soon as we arrived at the door.

"Village chief, village chief, the police from Beijing are here."

The village chief walked to the door and saw two police officers.

He quickly extended his hand and said enthusiastically.

"The police notified me, what do they need me for?"

"Hello, we're looking for Qin Huairu."

She was a girl who married into a family in Beijing, living in the courtyard at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.

She just went back to her hometown a couple of days ago; there's a case we need to discuss with her.

The village chief began to have doubts, wondering if he had done something wrong.

You need to speak quickly.

"Alright, come with me."

The village chief then led two police officers to Old Qin's house.

Qin's father was also a little nervous when he saw the police.

Because when my daughter came back, she had already told me about what happened in the city.

He really didn't expect that Jia Dongxu would actually call the police.

Qin's father greeted him warily.

"Officer, do you need to see my daughter? She's pregnant."

Old Zhang then said it more tactfully.

"Hello, fellow villager, we need to ask Comrade Qin Huairu about something."

Qin's father also sighed helplessly.

So he had no choice but to shout something into the house.

"Huai Ru, come out."

Qin Huairu also came out of the house with a frightened expression.

The police officer walked up and spoke.

"Qin Huairu, come with us to the police station. I have some questions for you."
