Siheyuan: Why does your brother beat you up every day, Shazhu?

It's not nine o'clock yet.

He Weiguo said to Wen Tiezhu:

"Captain, it's like this, I have to go home first."

"I'll be away for a few days. I need to go and tell my younger brothers and sisters at home and give them a few words of advice."

"Also, I need to get a change of clothes."

Wen Tiezhu understood this very well and nodded happily:

"Okay! You two should go back quickly and explain everything that needs to be explained."

"But be back soon! I'll have the office get you letters of introduction, travel permits, and so on."

"When I came back, I quickly checked the car, including the oil, water, and tires. This is a long journey, so I can't be careless!"

"Understood!" He Weiguo and Liu Jun responded at the same time.

After saying that, the two of them walked quickly towards the factory gate.

Fortunately, the bicycle was in the factory. He Weiguo got on the bike and sped towards No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.

When we returned to the compound, Yu Shui had already gone to school, and Sha Zhu was still sleeping soundly on the bed.

He Weiguo entered the room, walked over and nudged him:

"Zhuzi! Don't sleep anymore, get up! I have something to tell you."

Sha Zhu opened his eyes dazedly, saw that it was his elder brother, rubbed his eyes and sat up:

"Brother...what's wrong? What's the matter?"

He Weiguo put it succinctly:

"I have to go on a long trip to Baoding. It will probably take three or four days to get back."

"I'm not home these few days, so you have to take care of the house for me, especially the rain!"

"Since you're on leave for the next few days, prepare the meal for me. Don't let her go hungry."

When Sha Zhu heard this, he nodded quickly:

"Don't worry, big brother! I will definitely take good care of the rain!"

He Weiguo is not too worried about the problem of eating rainwater. There is enough food at home now, and Sha Zhu's cooking skills are also good.

But he was afraid that this guy would fall into his old habit again, so he sternly warned him:

"I'm not worried about the rain. But I'm telling you, Zhuzi, if you dare to send our food out again while I'm away these few days... just think about the consequences!"

"Just try to get into trouble as much as you can and see if I can deal with you when I get back!"

Sha Zhu shrank his neck in fear and quickly assured:

"Brother! I promise! I won't make any mistakes! I won't take the food out!"

"That's the best!" He Weiguo then got to the point:

"Zhu Zi, did you take Yu Shui to Baoding to look for He Daqing before?"

Obviously, this incident was a scar in Sha Zhu's heart. He muttered reluctantly:

"Brother... why are you asking this for no reason..."

He Weiguo glared at him:

"Hey! As the eldest brother, can't I ask?"

"To tell you the truth, I'm going to Baoding on a business trip this time, and I plan to go look for He Daqing on the way!"

"I have to ask him what he thinks. After abandoning his family and children for so many years, does he act like a father?"

"Shouldn't I go and give him a 'lesson'?"

"But I have to know where he is so I can attend class, right? Cut the crap and tell me where he is!"

Sha Zhu then said reluctantly:

"Brother... I don't know where he works! But I know where he lives. Last time I took Yu Shui there, I didn't see him at all, but I saw that White Widow... That location... I'll write it down for you, in case you forget."

"Okay! Hurry up! I'm waiting!" He Weiguo urged.

Sha Zhu went to the drawer and found a pencil and a piece of waste paper. He quickly wrote an address and handed it to He Weiguo:

"Brother, the address is right here."

He Weiguo took it and took a closer look. After confirming that it was correct, he folded the note carefully and put it in his jacket pocket.

After doing all this, He Weiguo stood up and started packing his luggage - a few sets of work clothes and some personal items.

If you are going on a trip for three or four days, you need to prepare.

Sha Zhu stared blankly at his elder brother packing his things. After hesitating for a long time, he stepped forward and asked quietly:

"Brother...you're not really going to Baoding...to beat up He Daqing, are you?"

He clearly remembered that his elder brother had mentioned it at the dinner table a few days ago and asked him if he wanted to go to Baoding together to "beat He Daqing."

I didn't expect this day to come so quickly!

With the eldest brother's stubborn personality, He Daqing is probably going to be in big trouble this time.

He Weiguo didn't even turn his head, and said as a matter of course:

"Nonsense! Do you even need to ask?"

"I went to see him specifically. How could I just chat with him? Shouldn't I teach him a lesson?"

In He Weiguo's opinion, He Daqing deserves a beating!

Leaving behind his own children and running away to Baoding with a widow, how could a human being do that?

If He Daqing took some responsibility, would he, as the eldest brother, have to worry so much?

Most of the troubles now fall on him, so what's wrong with beating up He Daqing?

It's only natural! No problem!

Somehow, when Sha Zhu heard his elder brother's affirmative answer, he felt a little excited.

To be honest, he really wanted to see with his own eyes what it would look like when his elder brother beat He Daqing.

When I was a child, I heard that my eldest brother beat my father, but he was not at home that time and did not see it with his own eyes. I only heard it from people in the courtyard.

He actually had a little... little anticipation in his heart?

So he tentatively opened his mouth:

"Brother... then... then can I go with you?"

He Weiguo stopped what he was doing, looked back at him, and scolded him with a smile:

"Hey! You kid! Weren't you too scared to fight last time I asked you?"

"Why, you want to go again now?"

"No way! Yu Shui is still in school, and there's no one at home to watch over her!"

"Besides, I'm on a business trip. What's the point of you following me?"

After a pause, he looked at Sha Zhu's somewhat disappointed expression and added:

"But don't worry, I'll definitely tell you the details when I get back!"

"Also, if you really want to beat him up yourself... I'll take you to Baoding someday so you can beat up He Daqing and vent your anger! How about that?"

When Sha Zhu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. Although he couldn't go immediately, with his elder brother's promise, it seemed... not bad?

Chapter 123 Prepare to depart for Baoding!

After explaining everything to Sha Zhu, He Weiguo returned to the food factory with some packed clothes.

As soon as I arrived at the transport team, I saw that Liu Jun had returned and was squatting next to the old GAZ truck that was about to go on a mission, doing the final check before departure.

"Weiguo! Come over and help, check the engine oil!" Liu Jun shouted without raising his head.

He Weiguo responded, put down his luggage bag, walked over and skillfully opened the hood, pulled out the oil dipstick and carefully checked the oil level and oil quality, then leaned over to check if there were any signs of oil leakage on the chassis.

Liu Jun took the air pump and checked the air pressure of the four tires one by one. He was still not sure and kicked the tire hard with his feet to feel the pressure.

He squatted by the right rear wheel, frowning and looking for a long time:

"Tsk, the right rear wheel is quite worn out. I think it's a bit risky for long distance driving!"

He turned to Li Dachui, who was helping to arrange the ropes, and shouted:

"Hammer! Go get that spare tire from the warehouse! It's a bit old, but the tread is deep, so it's still useful!"

"Okay, Master Liu! I'll go right away!" Li Dachui agreed and trotted to the warehouse.

Captain Wen Tiezhu was also watching from the side, and warned worriedly:

"Everyone, be careful! Remember to fill the water tank! And check the brake pads again!"

After giving almost all the instructions, Wen Tiezhu took out a brown paper file bag from his pocket and handed it to He Weiguo.

"Come, Weiguo, take this bag." Wen Tiezhu said solemnly:

"This is your first time traveling long distance, so I need to give you a brief introduction to the ins and outs of it."

"Liu Jun is a seasoned expert. He knows everything. You can ask him on the way. Time is short, so I'll just tell you the important things."

He Weiguo took the document bag and nodded seriously:

"Hey, Captain, you talk, I'm listening."

Wen Tiezhu first pulled out an envelope with a red seal:

"This is a letter of introduction! The most important thing! With this, it will be much easier for you to stay in hotels, pass checkpoints, and checkpoints along the way. No one will deliberately hold you back."

Then he took out another piece of paper:

"This is a road permit! It records our license plate number, the cargo we're carrying, and the weight of our vehicle. If you encounter a militia or police inspection on the road, just show this document and they generally won't impound your vehicle. Do you understand?"

He Weiguo looked at it carefully and thought to himself that there were so many rules for driving these days, but he also understood that during special periods, enemy spies were active frequently and strict inspections were necessary.
