Traveling back to 1952, starting a comeback from a relief station

Everyone around looked on with astonished expressions.

Wang Qin was somewhat bewildered—if it were anyone else, they would have been eager to announce this honor to the entire alley.

Wang Anping, on the other hand, didn't mention a single word about it to his neighbors in the same courtyard.

This kind of mindset is truly rare!

She was even more glad that she had given Wang Anping some conveniences at work before, and that she hadn't misjudged him.

"It seems none of you know this yet."

Wang Qin cleared her throat and spoke slowly.

"A few days ago, Comrade Wang Anping, together with another comrade, discovered and arrested an enemy agent on Qianmen Street! The situation was extremely dangerous at the time; the enemy agent was carrying a gun. Comrade Wang Anping rushed forward without hesitation and finally successfully subdued the man..."

Wang Qin recounted the scene in detail.

The neighbors in the courtyard were stunned, and their gazes toward Wang Anping instantly changed—he was an enemy agent with a gun!

Wang Anping actually dared to confront them directly and even arrested them.

He dares to go toe-to-toe with desperate criminals; he's a ruthless guy!

Jia Dongxu, who had just been beaten up by Wang Anping yesterday and was secretly plotting revenge, felt a surge of relief after hearing this. He thought to himself:

The sun is shining so brightly, I can't stoop to his level; I can't be so narrow-minded.

"Besides these honors."

Wang Qin then said:

"After deliberation by our street-level working group, we have decided to give you an additional 50 yuan bonus as encouragement!"

"We also call on all residents of the compound to learn from Comrade Wang Anping, to act bravely and righteously, and to safeguard social order!"

"Fifty dollars?!"

These words caused an uproar throughout the entire hospital—

That's two months' wages for an ordinary worker. For example, Jia Dongxu only earns twenty or thirty yuan a month.

The way everyone looked at Wang Anping suddenly became even more fervent.

They all had their doubts:

How come this kid gets all the good things?

After the street work team left, the neighbors all gathered in the front yard to congratulate Wang Anping and Qin Huairu.

The older women and aunties who usually talk to Qin Huairu.

They kept congratulating her:

"Huai Ru, you have such good taste! You've found such a capable and successful partner!"

After all, Wang Anping wasn't exactly mild-mannered, and if he maintained a good relationship with Qin Huairu, he could have someone to look after him if anything happened in the backyard.

Qin Huairu was feeling dizzy at that moment.

She had no idea about this. When Wang Qin told her how dangerous it was, she felt both scared and heartbroken.

Listen to what Team Leader Wang just said about how dangerous it was!

I could only force a smile and thank you.

Just as things were getting lively, Jia Zhangshi returned from outside carrying a vegetable basket.

Seeing a large crowd gathered in the courtyard, he was a little surprised but didn't ask any questions. He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Jia Dongxu!"

"Dongxu! Hurry up and go back inside to tidy up!"

"I just ran into Aunt Li. She said she'll be bringing a girl over later for you to meet on a blind date!"

Last night, Jia Zhangshi gave Jia Dongxu a good scolding, but she still felt uneasy. She was thinking that she should hurry up and find a wife for her son. Once he was married, he might become more mature and stable.

Today is Sunday, and everyone in the courtyard is free.

Upon hearing that Jia Zhangshi was going to arrange another blind date, they immediately surrounded her, chattering about the girl's situation.

Madam Jia, her face full of smugness, raised her chin and said:

"That girl is from the city too, and her family is quite well-off!"

"Aunt Li said that she felt sorry for Dongxu last time, so she specially found him a good one this time."

"I only heard it from Aunt Li. You'll know when they arrive!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Dongxu immediately perked up and hurriedly went back to his room to tidy himself up.

Madam Jia wasn't in a hurry to cook. She'd heard from Aunt Li that she was bringing her daughter, so she'd bought extra groceries. However, remembering her previous experience, she was considering her options:

When the person returns, check if it's suitable before starting to cook, so as not to work for nothing.

Not long after.

Jia Dongxu came out of the house wearing a new outfit.

Several young men in the courtyard had already gathered around—whenever someone in the courtyard went on a blind date, these teenagers would always be there to watch the spectacle.

Usually, it's Sha Zhu who starts the trouble.

Today, Sha Zhu was feeling down after last night's blow, so Xu Damao took the opportunity to become the "big brother," following behind Jia Dongxu and swaying back and forth, making jokes.

A while ago, Wang Anping married Qin Huairu, which brought a lot of new life to the courtyard.

Nowadays, blind dates are a common practice.

These young men were all very excited.

Qin Huairu also stood at the edge of the crowd, feeling a little nervous. She tugged at Wang Anping's arm and whispered:

"Brother Ping An, it's Aunt Li coming again this time."

"What if she sees me, or sees us together, and we get caught?"

Wang Anping remained calm, patted her hand, and reassured her:

"So what if we get caught?"

"We're married because of mutual consent, we've officially registered our marriage, it's all aboveboard, what's there to worry about?"

No sooner had the words been spoken than Aunt Li's voice came from the courtyard gate:

"Dongxu's mom! Is she home?"

Aunt Li led a girl into the courtyard. It wasn't her first time visiting the Jia family's house; she knew the place well and walked right in.

The familiar gate, the familiar front yard, the familiar people...

Hmm, people?

When Aunt Li saw Wang Anping standing at the door, her heart skipped a beat and she went numb. She quickly glanced at the house behind him and, not seeing him, breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Anping was also taken aback and looked at the girl that Aunt Li had brought.

Is this Jia Dongxu's blind date?

Hmm, she looks quite fortunate.

That's all he can say.

Aunt Li turned to give the girl some advice, but saw that the girl was staring intently at Wang Anping, so she quickly pulled her towards the central courtyard:

"Xiao Zhao, come inside quickly, the Jia family is in the middle courtyard."

As soon as Aunt Li entered the Intermediate People's Court, her heart jumped again, this time completely numb—

The woman washing clothes by the well is none other than Qin Huairu!

"Huai Ru, you're here?"

Aunt Li blurted out the words unconsciously, but realized her mistake as soon as she finished speaking and quickly shut her mouth.

The neighbors who were watching the commotion all heard it.

Sun Ersao leaned closer and asked:

"Aunt Li, do you know Huairu?"

Having bumped into Wang Anping in the front yard and then seeing Qin Huairu washing clothes in the middle yard, how could Aunt Li not understand the situation?

Remembering that he had previously accepted a dollar as a bribe, he felt flustered and quickly waved his hand.

"I don't know you, I don't know you, you've mistaken me for someone else."

He quickly changed the subject, pulling the girl over to Jia Zhangshi:

"Sister-in-law, look! This is the Zhao Yuan I told you about. Where's Dongxu? Come here quickly!"

"Xiao Zhao, that's Jia Dongxu over there, and this is his mother."

It was Sunday, and the courtyard was crowded. Jia Dongxu huddled in a corner of the middle courtyard, watching the girl's figure with a hint of panic in his eyes.

Sha Zhu, Xu Damao, and a few other kids huddled to the side, exchanging knowing glances—

This girl is really too "lucky".

That size.

He's probably worth two Jia Dongxus.
