Siheyuan, don't mess with me

The children playing in the garden were all from the neighborhood. With one shout, they called out all the people at home nearby. People at that time were still relatively united and would really help each other when encountering problems!

When they found out the children were missing, everyone was anxious and started asking around along the road! At the entrance of the alley, an old man basking in the sun said that a middle-aged woman had left with a group of children! The large group of children had gone with them, which frightened the women. The first thought in their minds was that they had encountered human traffickers, so the tall and strong ones were responsible for chasing them, and the rest of the people split into two groups, one went to the police station to report the incident, and the other went to the street office.

The woman who went to the police station to report the case met two policemen who were on their way to do business. She didn't care whether they were police officers in the local jurisdiction or not, she stopped them and said that the child had been abducted by human traffickers!

There were human traffickers. This was unacceptable. The two police officers pedaled their bicycles and chased in the direction they pointed! Seeing a group of people surrounding them and making a lot of noise, the two police officers were relieved!

When she saw the police, the three aunties finally came to their senses. As if she had seen a savior, she cried, "Comrades, they beat me!" As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, as if she had suffered a great injustice!

"You deserve to be beaten to death, you damned human trafficker!" The fat woman was furious when she saw the three aunties still confusing right and wrong. She wanted to go forward and continue beating them, but fortunately she was stopped by the police nearby.

"Comrade, it was her who kidnapped our child!" The fat woman pointed at the three aunties and said angrily. The police who rushed to the scene also felt it was a bit strange. They had encountered human traffickers who kidnapped one or two children, but they had never encountered a human trafficker who kidnapped a large group of children! It was either a high-IQ crime or there was another reason!

"Comrade, don't worry, let me find out the situation!" The older policeman stepped forward and stopped the women who were still trying to rush forward.

"What else do you need to understand? Don't you understand this? Our children were playing well, and now they are all gone. They were all abducted by her!" The woman nearby said angrily. When she heard that the children were missing, she felt like the sky was falling. If she hadn't heard that the children had not been gone for long and there was still a chance to find them, she would not have chased after him with all her strength!

Only those who have experienced this kind of mixed feeling of joy and sorrow, loss and recovery can deeply understand it. How can we not hate the third aunt? Didn’t Grandma Wang next door faint on the spot when she heard that her grandson was missing?

"Don't worry, the children are all here. Please rest assured, we will not let the bad guys go!" The older policeman said loudly. At this time, the crowd was separated again, and Director Wang from the street office came in. When she heard that a group of children were abducted, she was also anxious, and quickly arranged for the staff in the street office to go to the streets to look for them!

I started riding my bike around the street and saw this group of people gathered there!

"Li Ruihua, why is it you here!" Director Wang recognized at a glance that the person sitting on the ground was Li Ruihua from Yard 95. He had just finished three months of sweeping the streets. What kind of trouble had he caused?

Knowing that it was Li Ruihua who did it, Director Wang felt half relieved. She also didn't believe that Li Ruihua had the guts to kidnap children, and a large group of them!

"Director Wang, they beat me!" The third aunt said pitifully, her face was bruised, her hair was messy, and her body was covered with big footprints. She looked miserable and pitiful! But who is Director Wang? She has seen many people playing misery, so how could she be fooled by the third aunt's tricks!

"Tell me! What's going on with these children?" Director Wang was the most senior official at the scene, and it was in her jurisdiction, so Director Wang started questioning directly on the spot. If she didn't clarify the matter on the spot, some things would change as they were passed around, and the impact would be even greater, and her work would become passive, so it was better to let everyone know the truth!

"I, I, I just took them to get the steamed buns!" Even if the third aunt didn't want to say it, she had to make things clear, otherwise if she was really labeled as a human trafficker, she would have to eat peanuts!

"Where can I get steamed buns?" Director Wang was also puzzled. He had never heard of anyone on the street showing kindness or doing good deeds.

"Chen Dayong's family put up the roof beam today. Let's go over and congratulate him. He will give us two steamed buns! I was thinking of taking these kids to get the steamed buns!"

Director Wang would never believe that Li Ruihua had such good intentions. She would take these children who she didn't know to get steamed buns from such a long distance. With her character of not doing anything without profit, she would not believe that she could do such a good deed. So, she continued to ask with a cold face, "Tell me, what benefit did you get from this?"

"No, really not, I just have good intentions, I just want the children to have two steamed buns!" The third aunt argued.

"She lied! Each child received two steamed buns, but she wanted to take one steamed bun from the children!" The woman nearby said angrily. She was the mother of the leading child. When she saw the child, her heart settled down. After her anxiety was gone, she had the mind to question the child why he followed this woman!

"Is what she said true?" Director Wang asked coldly, his lungs were about to explode with anger. This person was so greedy that he wanted to take advantage of and deceive innocent children! This was really a moral decline, he would do anything to take advantage!

The third aunt lowered her head and said nothing more. She knew that she was going to be embarrassed again!

Chapter 90: Propaganda activities to prevent human traffickers

After Director Wang learned about the situation, he said to the crowd, "We have understood everything now. Li Ruihua is not a human trafficker. Everyone, disperse! Go back and tell your children not to talk to strangers or eat food given by strangers! If anything happens, call for adults. Do you understand?" Director Wang was also thinking that after this incident was over, he should arrange for people to begin giving lectures in every compound on how to prevent human traffickers!

"I heard it!" "I got it!" The crowd responded in a mixed voice. Director Wang asked the women to take the children home and talk to them properly, asking them to raise their awareness of prevention!

At the same time, she specifically told them not to beat their children when they got home. But I don’t know how many people would listen to her. At that time, the education of children was simple and rough. If they didn’t listen, they would be beaten. Some parents even beat their children together!

So, why did no one care when Liu Haizhong beat Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu? It is natural for parents to beat their children. How could you do anything about it?

And that was the way of education at that time. The main reason was that most parents were rough and who would try to reason with their children? Besides, they wouldn't be able to explain it clearly! It would be better to just do it directly and give the children a profound lesson to see if they can remember it in the future. If they can't remember it, then continue to increase the pressure until the children remember it!

After calming down the children and their parents and letting them take their children home, Director Wang said to Li Ruihua, who was still sitting on the ground, "Let's go! Follow me back to the street office!"

"Director Wang, I am really wronged. I just wanted to take my child to eat steamed buns!" The third aunt also knew that it would be difficult to resolve her situation today, so she took advantage of the fact that everyone had left to plead for mercy!

"They gave two steamed buns to each person when they were raising the beams. Isn't that generous? Food is so precious now! And you're still trying to take advantage of them. You want to ruin their good fortune, right? What if the Chen family doesn't have that many steamed buns? What if the children make a fuss? What if the parents chase after the Chen family and make a fuss? Will you give them steamed buns?"

Will there be no steamed buns in their house? Auntie Three definitely wouldn't dare to say this. The only thing she can do now is to play the victim. There is no other way!

"Either follow me back to the street office, or follow the police comrades to the police station! It's your choice!" Director Wang would not indulge her. She also had to rush back to assign the task of preaching on how to prevent human traffickers in the city. She had to turn passivity into initiative!

"I, I'll go back with you!" Comparing the two options, the three aunties from the police station would definitely not choose the one. If she goes there, she might have to revisit the old place again. She doesn't want to experience that miserable experience again!

Director Wang said a few words to the two policemen, saying that they would have to trouble the police station comrades to cooperate with the street to carry out propaganda activities to prevent human traffickers. The third aunt did not expect that one day she would become a negative example and preach to the whole street! Gradually, other streets also responded to the propaganda activities initiated by Director Wang, and the name of the third aunt spread throughout the city of Yanjing. Everyone knew that there was a third aunt who cheated children of steamed buns!

This lecture also helped Director Wang to change from a passive position to an active one. As the matter progressed and a child escaped from the traffickers, Director Wang was commended by his superiors! Of course, these things are all later!

Director Wang brought the three aunts back to the street office. He did not rush to deal with her. Instead, he put her aside and started to study with his comrades on the street how to carry out the publicity activities to prevent human traffickers starting tonight!

But everyone has heard of such things, or knows where a child is lost or missing! But when it comes to asking them to think about how to prevent human traffickers, they really don’t know where to start!

At this time, the door of the conference room was knocked. When the door opened, Chen Zhiguo appeared at the door. It turned out that Director Wang wanted to know what was going on at Chen Zhiguo's home, but she was in a hurry to attend a meeting to discuss the evening lecture, so she asked someone to call Chen Zhiguo to the street office!

Chen Zhiguo, who had been helping out at home, really had no idea why Director Wang had called him here. He only knew about Third Aunt's matter through Grandma Hu who came to congratulate her. It turned out that Third Aunt was so smart that she would actually gather people to take advantage of her family. She was really smart!

However, Chen Zhiguo had no time to sigh, he was busy. When the beams were in place, they were laid with bundles of reeds. The bundles of reeds were tied into long strips as thick as fists, just the right length for laying tiles. When the bundles of reeds were arranged on the beams one by one and fixed with thin wooden strips, the heavy physical work began below. Yellow mud was mixed with hemp silk, and after it was evenly mixed, it was thrown on the roof with a shovel. After a thick layer was applied, the tiles could be laid!

Mixing yellow mud and throwing it on the roof is very strenuous work. A shovel of yellow mud is very heavy. If you don't have enough strength, it's hard to carry it, let alone throw it on the roof. Skilled workers can throw the mud wherever they point! They have to rest after working for a while. It's too tiring and too physically demanding!

While Chen Zhiguo asked Wang Meihua to make some vegetable soup and heat up steamed buns for the workers to fill their stomachs, he also helped. The workers originally thought that this enthusiastic host was just looking for something new and wanted to try it out for fun, so they watched him work with the idea of ​​making a fool of themselves. They didn't expect that Chen Zhiguo had extraordinary physical strength and his accuracy was no worse than that of the old master!

With the addition of Chen Zhiguo, the new force, the tiling work on the roof progressed very quickly. What would have taken two days to lay the tiles can now be completed in almost one day!

The three mud workers couldn't keep up with Chen Zhiguo's speed, so they slowed down! It wasn't until Chen Zhiguo was called away that the three mud workers breathed a sigh of relief. They were in such a hurry that they were embarrassed to take a break!

Director Wang saw Chen Zhiguo coming and hurried out of the meeting room. "You've heard about Li Ruihua, right?"

"I heard about it, Director Wang!" Chen Zhiguo had no idea why Director Wang had called him here, so he could only answer whatever he knew!

"I came to you just to ask you if you had any conflicts with the people in the courtyard recently? I have a meeting here and I asked you to come. I know your family is busy today! But I really can't get away!" Director Wang explained.

"Thank you Director Wang for your concern. We have been building a house recently. Only Liu Haizhong came to ask about it once. After I showed him the note you approved, no one came since! Today, the house was put up with beams, and several neighbors came to congratulate and gave each of them two steamed buns. I didn't expect this to cause such a commotion!" Chen Zhiguo didn't expect something like this to happen. Fortunately, the children walked slowly. If these children had come to his house, it would have been a real trouble. If the parents came to his house, his yard would have been bustling!

"That's good. You should be careful about the impact when doing things in the future. Food is so precious now!" Director Wang nodded at Chen Zhiguo.

"I got it, Director Wang, I will pay attention next time!" Chen Zhiguo also knew that he was careless this time. He had no shortage of food, so he didn't pay attention to the current shortage of food in the market!

"Okay, I know you are busy at home, so go back quickly!" After Director Wang achieved her goal, she did not keep Chen Zhiguo any longer, as she still had to continue the meeting!

"Director Wang, thank you for your concern. I'll go back first!" Chen Zhiguo politely said goodbye to Director Wang, turned around and left. The housework had not been finished yet, and Chen Zhiguo was thinking about going back to help!

Just as Chen Zhiguo was about to walk out of the street office gate, "Zhiguo, come back!" Director Wang shouted at the door of the conference room.

What's going on? Chen Zhiguo walked back quickly, "Zhiguo, this is what happened with Li Ruihua. I thought about launching a publicity campaign to prevent human traffickers in various compounds and residential areas, so that adults and children can be more vigilant! Don't give human traffickers an opportunity to take advantage! But the comrades on the street are not well educated, and I didn't know how to spread the word after thinking for a long time. I wanted to ask you, a college student, if you have any good ideas?"

Chen Zhiguo did not hesitate to agree to Director Wang's request. "Director Wang, I will definitely help with this matter. I just don't know if you can appreciate my humble opinion!"

"It's okay, let's work together to find a solution and make this happen!"

Director Wang took Chen Zhiguo into the meeting room. Chen Zhiguo looked at the minutes of the meeting. They were all the same words, nothing new! Not many people would listen to such a presentation seriously!

He plans to write a few short stories and describe the methods used by human traffickers. Such stories can be understood and accepted by both the elderly and children, thus raising their vigilance!

Chen Zhiguo took a few sheets of manuscript paper, took out a pen and started writing. Director Wang saw that Chen Zhiguo was writing seriously, so he didn't disturb him, but continued to arrange the tasks for tonight!

Chen Zhiguo first summarized the patterns of human traffickers' actions. In order to increase their success rate, human traffickers usually target children who are easy to catch and careless parents. Children who are lively by nature, like to run around and jump around, and don't listen to their parents' instructions are easy to be noticed by human traffickers. Moreover, children nowadays play outside without adult supervision, especially children aged three to six who can run and jump, and don't go to school, which gives human traffickers an opportunity to take advantage of them.

Generally speaking, human traffickers like to choose places where children often appear, such as the doorsteps of homes, school gates, parks, shopping malls, stations, zoos, and amusement parks. Children may also encounter human traffickers in hospitals or on the road. So no matter when and where you go out with your children, you should be vigilant.

Chen Zhiguo cited the following key points of attention through later cases:

First, know the importance of your child’s name. In public, you must not let strangers know your child’s name, because once a stranger knows your child’s name, he or she can easily gain your child’s trust.

Second, your child should not leave your sight. When parents take their children out to play, they should not leave their children aside to do their own things, and they should not let their children play with strangers' children. Even if you have something urgent to do, you should never easily leave your child to the care of a "kind" stranger who offers to help. In summary, you must hold your child's hand and don't let go!

At the same time, tell your children: Don’t eat food given by strangers unless your parents are present and agree. Don’t follow strangers at any time or for any reason, no matter how nice the strangers say. If a stranger drags you away or forces you to do something you don’t want to do, be sure to shout for help.

Parents should tell their children who they can ask for help, and take them to know where the police station is, what kind of clothes the police wear, and the street office and the security guards of various units. These are all people that children can ask for help! Here is a word of caution, don’t underestimate these security guards, many of them are veteran revolutionaries, heroes who have walked down from the battlefield!

Chapter 91 Speech

Chen Zhiguo finished writing several short stories very quickly, and then handed them to Director Wang. Although Chen Zhiguo did not write much, just two or three pages, and the short stories were also very short, they are easy to remember after reading!

The first article is the story of the three aunts who refused to accept gifts from strangers. It was a real thing that easily won people’s hearts. Before they even gave anything, they easily deceived more than a dozen children. If this was a gang crime, what would happen to these children?

The opening is thought-provoking, and the following story is even more acceptable.

The second story is about the importance of a child’s name. Knowing a child’s name, an adult can easily gain the child’s trust and can also easily deceive him!

The third story is about how to deal with a mother or grandmother who pretends to be a relative and takes care of the child alone, how to deal with someone who pretends to be your husband and child to snatch the child away, and the people around you who agree with the traffickers! The key point is to break the situation, that is, don't argue with them. The more you argue with them, the easier it is for the onlookers to believe that you are the head of the family! The correct way is to call for help, call the police, or deliberately clash with the onlookers to provoke a bigger conflict! In this way, no one can escape, and you and your child will be safe!

The fourth story is for parents, how to deal with strangers' enthusiastic approaching, how to ensure that their children are always within their sight! As for temporary care, helping to take care of the children, you are just handing the children over to human traffickers!

And the summary below: Don’t eat things given by strangers, don’t follow strangers, how to ask for help if a stranger drags you away! And how parents can cultivate children’s awareness and methods of asking for help!

The whole article is not long, but the language is easy to understand. Director Wang feels that there is no need to modify it and can just use it directly!

"You are indeed a college student. Your writing is amazing!" Director Wang exclaimed.

"No, no, it's just my thoughts and understanding, I hope it can help everyone!" Chen Zhiguo said modestly.

"I won't be polite with you. I will use the article you wrote as the content of my speech!"

"Director Wang, you still need to revise it. My idea is still very immature. You have worked in the street for so many years, you must have a deeper understanding!"

"Okay, stop being so modest. Don't you know what my level is? So leave it at that!" Director Wang didn't listen to Chen Zhiguo and asked her to revise it. How could she revise it? If she could do it herself, she would have written it long ago. Why did she have to wait for Chen Zhiguo to come?

After Chen Zhiguo left, Director Wang had everything Chen Zhiguo wrote printed without changing a single word, ready to be used in tonight’s lecture!

As for the three aunts, they were still sitting in the office, anxiously waiting for Director Wang to deal with them!

After Director Wang arranged the tasks, he noticed Li Ruihua sitting in the corner of the office. This woman would do anything to take advantage of others. She was the same as Yan Bugui. Birds of a feather flock together!

But Director Wang couldn't punish her severely for this matter. "Look at the trouble you caused today. You almost alarmed the entire Yanjing City. More than a dozen children disappeared. Just imagine what kind of case this is! Fortunately, it was discovered early. If it had been reported to the superiors, I wonder what you would have done?"

"I just want to take my child to get steamed buns!" Auntie explained timidly.

"You are taking care of a child. Is he your child? Have you told the child's parents? Let me tell you, one of the child's grandmother fainted due to anxiety and had to be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. If anything happens to him, do you think the family will let you go?" Director Wang was also furious. This was such a weird thing. If he reported it, it would be embarrassing enough to have such a talent in his jurisdiction!

Director Wang's words frightened Auntie San completely. The words that had just alarmed the entire Yanjing City did not frighten her. In fact, she did not understand the consequences of this matter! This was understandable. She was just an ordinary housewife. She had little experience!

But the old lady was in the hospital. If something happened, someone would definitely come to her house to cause trouble. She knew the consequences. This was how ordinary people dealt with things! If she got into trouble, she would also make trouble!

"Director Wang, please help me, I was really wrong!" The third aunt fell to her knees!

This action made Director Wang very angry, and he shouted loudly, "Li Ruihua, get up! If you don't get up, I will put you in the detention room!"

If this was seen and spread out, Director Wang would not be able to explain himself even if he was right. He held his forehead helplessly and said, "You go back first. Come with me to the children's homes tonight to apologize to them and see how the elderly are doing. By the way, bring money with you, because you have to pay for their medical expenses!"

Li Ruihua thought he was just going to apologize, so he felt relieved. But when he heard that he had to pay money, his heart ached again. If he had known, he would not have coveted Chen Zhiguo's bread. As long as he was involved in his family, there would be no good! But is it useful to regret now? At the beginning, he felt as uncomfortable as if he was scratched by a cat. He could not tolerate others taking more than he deserved, as if he had suffered a loss!

There is no point in saying anything now. As long as the old lady is safe and sound, that’s all that matters!

Li Ruihua returned home anxiously. At this time, Yan Bugui and several children came back. "Where have you been? Why didn't you cook? What happened to your face? Did someone hit you?"

Yan Bugui now goes straight home after get off work and usually does not show up in the courtyard because he feels ashamed, so he has no idea what is going on outside!
