Two guests came to He Yuzhu's house: his brother-in-law and sister-in-law.

The two men were dressed in green military uniforms, with armbands on their arms.

The people in the courtyard recognized the attire and knew what it represented, so they didn't dare to go up and ask.

Yan Bugui saw it but didn't dare to step forward, and the others didn't dare to ask any more questions.

It was Zhou Sujuan who stepped forward: "Comrades, who are you looking for?"

Lin Jingcheng said, "Auntie, I've come to find my sister and brother-in-law. My brother-in-law is He Yuzhu."

Zhou Sujuan said with a smile, "They live in the central courtyard and haven't returned yet. Why don't you come to my house and sit for a while?"

The two exchanged a glance and then followed Zhou Sujuan into the Li family home.

After asking a few simple questions and confirming their identities, Zhou Sujuan warmly welcomed them.

Outside, people in the courtyard began to discuss it.

The news reached the backyard, and Liu Haizhong, who was recuperating at home, couldn't sit still any longer and came out from the backyard.

"Who are you?"

Lin Jingyi retorted, "Who are we? What's it to you? Who are you?"

Liu Haizhong proudly stated, "I am the leader of the steel rolling mill workers' disciplinary team."

Lin Jingcheng said with a disdainful look, "What's so great about a group leader?"

"See? We're here to see the leader."

If it were anyone else, Liu Haizhong wouldn't deliberately cause trouble. But these two were looking for He Yuzhu.

He disliked He Yuzhu, and he also disliked everyone related to He Yuzhu.

"Who knows if you're telling the truth? Tell me honestly."

Lin Jingcheng spat and said, "Who do you think you are? We don't need to explain ourselves to you."

Lin Jingyi said, "Brother, this should be the official-obsessed guy in my brother-in-law's courtyard."

Lin Jingcheng realized what was going on and said, "Oh, it's you. How could a fool like you become an official?"

Liu Haizhong said angrily, "How dare you! Who gave you permission to talk to me like that? I'm going to have you arrested."

Lin Jingcheng chuckled: "Want to catch me? You try if you dare."

Liu Haizhong turned his head and saw that he was surrounded by women and couldn't find anyone to run errands for him.

The only boy was Banggeng, so he said to Banggeng, "Go and find people for me. I'm going to arrest them."

Bang Geng was influenced by his family from a young age and harbored a deep hatred for He Yuzhu.

He knew that this was He Yuzhu's relative, so he thought of taking revenge on He Yuzhu.

Hearing Liu Haizhong's words, he immediately ran out of the yard.

He ran too fast and bumped into Director Wang.

Director Wang knew Banggeng, so he asked him what happened.

Bang Geng honestly told him.

Director Wang started to get a headache as soon as he heard that.

The neighborhood committee is responsible for providing logistical support to them, which is a very challenging task.

Director Wang quickly took Banggeng and a few other people and went to No. 95 Courtyard together.

Upon seeing Director Wang, Liu Haizhong immediately began to falsely accuse him.

Director Wang recognized the person in front of him and interrupted him directly: "Shut up."

When Liu Haizhong heard Director Wang get angry, he calmed down.

Director Wang said, "What brings you two to Beijing?"

Lin Jingcheng said, "Aunt Wang, we came with everyone and also came to see my dad, my sister and brother-in-law."

When Lin Chih-chieh came to Beijing, Lin Ching-cheng and Lin Ching-yi did not come with him. They stayed at the military base to continue their studies.

Director Wang said, "Didn't you send a telegram to your sister before you came?"

Lin Jingcheng said, "We just wanted to give my sister a surprise."

Director Wang is a very shrewd person; he could tell at a glance that he was lying.

They probably came secretly because they were afraid their families wouldn't approve.

"Alright, I don't care how you got here. You all just stay here and wait for your sister to come back."

"Don't cause me any trouble." Lin Jingcheng pointed at Liu Haizhong and said, "It's not us causing trouble, it's this fat guy deliberately trying to make things difficult for us."

Director Wang glared at him and said to Liu Haizhong, "They are He Yuzhu's relatives, not bad people."

Don't cause them any trouble.

Otherwise, if He Yuzhu comes back and beats you up, you'll deserve it.

Upon hearing what Director Wang said, Liu Haizhong could only slink home in shame.

Lin Jingyi's stomach suddenly growled.

Director Wang asked, "Haven't you eaten?"

Lin Jingyi said, "We came to find my sister as soon as we got off the train. We haven't eaten yet."

"Come on, let's go have dinner," Director Wang said helplessly.

Zhou Sujuan said, "Director Wang, Zhuzi will be back soon. Let them have a meal at my house."

Director Wang knew about He Yuzhu's relationship with the Li family, so he said, "Her family has a good relationship with your brother-in-law's family. What do you think? Are you going to have dinner with me, or wait for your brother-in-law?"

The two looked at each other and said in unison, "We'll wait for my brother-in-law here."

Director Wang told them to behave themselves and then hurriedly left.

The two ate only one cornbread, saving room for He Yuzhu to return.

Not long after, Lin Jinghan returned with the child.

Seeing these two, she felt helpless. Although she was the older sister, she had basically never lived with them, so she couldn't really say much.

"Since you're here, don't leave. We'll find you a place to stay today, and tomorrow we'll take you to see Dad and Grandma."

"Sister, we still have to participate in the activities."

Lin Jinghan said, "Don't worry, it won't delay your participation in the event."

Lin Jingcheng sat in He Yuzhu's house, holding an apple in his hand and starting to eat it.

"Sis, where did you buy your apples? They're so sweet."

"Your brother-in-law bought it, don't ask any more questions."

Lin Jingyi hugged He Yuanting and started eating as well.

When He Yuzhu returned home and saw the two of them, he understood what had happened.

He Yuzhu didn't want to interfere too much with the two of them. Besides, they were still students, and as long as they didn't cause trouble, nothing would happen.

"You're going to get a beating, kid. Who gave you the guts to run away from home with Jingyi?"

Lin Jingcheng said, "It's not that I wanted to bring her, it's that she insisted on coming with me. I can't leave her behind."

He Yuzhu said, "Don't explain to me. When you see Dad, you can explain to him."

Lin Jingcheng felt a little guilty and sat to the side, his eyes darting around.

After a while, He Yushui and He Yuqing also returned.

He Yuqing followed the crowd, wearing a red armband, and went to help out at the neighborhood office.

Knowing he couldn't stop Lin Jingcheng and the other person, He Yuzhu said to them, "You two stay with Yuqing and don't run around."

"What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you."

"Brother-in-law, I want to eat meat. You have no idea how hard we've been these past few days."

The food I brought from home was all eaten on the first day.

He Yuzhu said, "You asked for it," and went out to buy food.

Lin Jingcheng didn't care about He Yuzhu's attitude. After finishing the fruit, he started teasing He Yuanhang.

Lin Jingyi then chatted with He Yushui and her sisters. She told them about the hardships they had endured on the journey.

Lin Jinghan asked He Yushui to take care of the two of them, while she went out to make a phone call home.

After the two finished eating, He Yuzhu let Lin Jingyi stay at his house, and then took Lin Jingcheng to the courtyard.

"A few of the old men in our compound aren't quite right in the head. Don't go looking for trouble with them."

Lin Jingcheng said, "Brother-in-law, what are you afraid of?"

He Yuzhu said, "Don't worry about it, I have a use for them."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jingcheng said, "I was originally planning to call a few friends to teach that fat guy a lesson. I'm giving you face, so when you deal with him later, don't hold back." (End of Chapter)
