Siheyuan: Enemy spies are captured every time

It was already completely dark. Lou Xiao'e steamed the rice and heated up the dishes, while Hua Chengyu and Xu Damao started drinking.

Next to him, Yi Zhonghai once again came to the deaf old lady's house.

"Old lady, the boy from the Hua family can no longer stay in the compound, otherwise our identities will be discovered sooner or later!" Yi Zhonghai said straight to the point.

"Xiao Yi, have you found out the identity of the boy from the Hua family?" The deaf old lady smoked a pipe and blew out a puff of smoke lightly.

Yi Zhonghai shook his head: "I only know that he is from Sijiucheng and had a good relationship with Director Li when he was in the factory. I haven't found out anything else yet."

"That boy must be someone else. He graduated from Wudaokou University at the age of 20. We should be careful." The deaf old lady thought for a while and said.

"Old lady, I am the manager. One of the manager's tasks is to catch spies!" Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and said, "Old lady, if we take your black box..."

"Black box, what black box?" The deaf old lady lowered her head, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

"Old lady, let's be frank. Back then, you helped me forge my identity and got me into the steel mill. I also provided you with the drawings and parts of the steel mill and tried my best to help you collect information about the factory. I don't know what you want to do, and I'm not interested in knowing. But, old lady, we are family!"

Yi Zhonghai took out a cigarette but didn't light it!

He was a man from the old era and had long been accustomed to the changing flags on the city walls. But no one knew when the flag would change color.

He had tracked what the deaf old lady did more than once.

He also knew the purpose of the deaf old lady arranging him to work in a workshop.

One workshop was a steel rolling mill that produced parts for the military. Through the drawings of the parts, he roughly knew what kind of weapons these parts were used on.

The output can also be roughly calculated. The old lady would go out every once in a while. One night, he couldn't sleep and saw a light in the deaf old lady's room.

Even though the electricity had been connected, the deaf old lady still lit a kerosene lamp in the middle of the night. The light was very dim, and he curiously leaned over to the window to take a look.

That glance almost scared him to death!

The deaf old lady could actually send telegrams. It was terrible, so terrible. However, he never thought of reporting the deaf old lady. Instead, when he often got up at night, if he saw the deaf old lady lighting a lamp, he would stand guard for her.

But the deaf old lady used the radio only once.

"Xiao Yi, you still have a conscience. It's worth my help!" The deaf old lady loosened her clenched hands after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said: "I don't have the black box you mentioned. What do you want to do?"

"I want to quietly place the black box in the room of the Hua family kid and arrest him in the name of catching a spy!" Yi Zhonghai said bitterly: "With him in the yard, we will be exposed sooner or later."

"Xiao Yi, you think too simply." The deaf old lady shook her head: "This is too dangerous. We should think of other ways."

Long Xiaoni also thought about Hua Chengyu, but she couldn't figure it out. For more than a month, everyone had kept to themselves, so why did they suddenly start targeting them?

Did he discover something?

If he really discovered something, he should report it directly to the police, the factory security department or the street office.

After thinking about it for a whole day, Long Xiaoni still didn't figure out what Hua Chengyu was trying to do.

"Old lady, what do you think we should do?" Yi Zhonghai frowned. He had been running the compound for so long and had kidnapped most of the people in the compound by using benefits (advanced access to the courtyard, buying food on the black market, etc.).

They also instill in everyone every day: distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, we will see each other every day, and any problems can be solved in the compound.

Also, there is no fault of the elderly, only the inconsiderate thoughts of the young.

He successfully established the glorious image of the deaf old lady as a revolutionary martyr's relative. He took the lead and whoever had delicious food would give some to the deaf old lady.

Of course, the newly moved in flower idioms are an exception.

The deaf old lady tapped her pipe and said slowly, "As the old saying goes: Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle. We don't know the origin of this idiom, so the first thing we need to do is to find out his origin. So, go and ask about this boy's social connections. Also, go to the factory and the street to ask around."

"Go ask at the factory or on the street?"

"You have a pig's brain. You are the manager. Shouldn't you check the background of a new resident?" said the deaf old lady in disappointment.

"Yes, yes, I will do it in the next few days!" Yi Zhonghai nodded repeatedly.

"Also, let Sha Zhu hit him a few times!" said the deaf old lady casually.

"Can a silly Zhu beat a flowery idiom?"

"Shazhu is a cook who wields a big pot every day. That guy looks like a pretty boy and doesn't know how to fight. It was just an accident yesterday morning."

I would rather kill the deaf old lady than believe that Sha Zhu can’t beat Hua Chengyu.

Hua Chengyu is very fair and clean. If he were in her era, he would have been a plaything of rich ladies. It was this era that saved him.

"But that kid is a cadre, after all. Beating cadres?..." Sha Zhu is one of his candidates for retirement. He is afraid that Sha Zhu will suffer too much, and he is also afraid that Sha Zhu will drive a Land Rover.

"You are the manager. Your job is to deal with conflicts and disputes among neighbors. Otherwise, what are you doing as a manager?" The deaf old lady glanced at Yi Zhonghai.

"Xiao Yi, you haven't realized your identity yet!"

"Yes, yes, yes..." Yi Zhonghai nodded repeatedly. Manager? Haha, he was just using his tricks to fool the ignorant peasants in the courtyard.

Hua Chengyu is a top student, and he doesn't believe that he would be scared by a manager!

But no matter what, try your best!

Just like what the old lady said, the most important thing right now is to find out the origin of the idiom "花".

"Old lady, can you please talk to Director Yang and cancel the punishment for being a fool?" This was Yi Zhonghai's second purpose for coming here. He had already said it in front of everyone in the courtyard. If the deaf old lady was willing to find Director Yang, it would be a fatal blow to Hua Chengyu's prestige in the courtyard.

The deaf old lady shook her head: "I went to look for him this morning. Old Yang is in a meeting outside and hasn't come back yet. I'll go look for him again when he comes back. Old Yi, don't let Sha Zhu get too close to the Jia family. It's not good for him!"

The deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai still have differences on how to deal with Sha Zhu.

What's wrong with that? He just wanted Sha Zhu to be close to the Jia family. Qin Huairu was a country girl, hardworking and filial. In his heart, Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu were the most suitable people to take care of him in his old age.

Of course, it would be best to spend money, but that seems impossible now.

"Old lady, don't worry about Shazhu. I'm here. I'll watch over him!" Yi Zhonghai said nonchalantly.

"Just keep it in mind!"

At the same time, on the other side, Hua Chengyu and Xu Damao were drunk. Xu Damao was a good talker and praised Hua Chengyu highly. Hua Chengyu also liked the feeling of being praised.

The two of them were talking about sex!

"I need your help in doing something!" Xu Damao said while patting Hua Chengyu's shoulder.

help? !

Hua Chengyu was born in such a family and was taught from childhood not to ask others for help, let alone to help others randomly, because if he is not careful he might end up making things worse.

Politics is the art of compromise. If you ask others for help, they will return it tenfold or a hundredfold elsewhere.

The same goes.

"My ability is limited. I can't help you with big things, but you don't need my help with small things." Hua Chengyu refused directly.

"Hey, excuse me, brother. It's not a big deal. I'm sure you can help me with this!" Xu Damao pretended not to understand what Hua Chengyu meant and continued.

"Tell me what you want to say?" Hua Chengyu, who was almost sober, looked at Xu Damao with narrowed eyes.

He really couldn't imagine that Xu Damao was so shameless. He had only known him for two days. How could he have the nerve to ask him for help?

"I want to have a child with you?" Xu Damao said drunkenly.

"This? Brother Damao, I'm not married yet. Isn't it too early for you to adopt a godson?"

"It's not a godson, it's a child!" Xu Damao patted Hua Chengyu's shoulder vigorously and said, "You know my health, it's impossible for me to have children, but I don't want to be like Yi Zhonghai, who has no family left, so brother, I want to ask you for a child."

"A child? Why do you want a child?" Hua Chengyu didn't react for a moment.

Adopting a godson is a very common thing in recent years. In this era, many revolutionary martyrs have their descendants raised by the living people after their sacrifice.

His father raised several descendants of revolutionary martyrs.

Some even acknowledged the old man as their godfather, which was normal, but it was impossible for their own children to acknowledge someone like Xu Damao as their godfather. That would be too embarrassing. It would make people laugh because of their different social classes.

"That's it..." Xu Damao suddenly stopped, walked drunkenly to the door, looked left and right, and then closed the door.

"What's the matter? Why are you so mysterious?" Hua Chengyu took a bite of the food, puzzled by Xu Damao's behavior.

"Brother, I'm telling you the truth!" Xu Damao paused and said, "Brother, are you okay?"

"If I have any health problems, I will have a physical examination twice a year to keep myself healthy!"

"That's good, as long as you're fine. I think..." Xu Damao suddenly whispered in Hua Chengyu's ear.

"You're crazy!" Hua Chengyu pushed Xu Damao away. He was really crazy. So that's what he meant. This was a weird train of thought. In his later life, he had seen surrogacy, test-tube babies, and many, very confusing relationships in the entertainment industry.

Before traveling through time, he heard that a female celebrity in Hengdian had been infected with the virus and that there was a long line of people waiting for physical examinations that night.

I've seen it before, it doesn't matter anymore who is who, and I can't figure it out.

"I'm not crazy! Brother, just tell me whether you will help or not. I will do my wife's job."

"Brother Damao, you are drunk."

"Brother, I'm not drunk. Do you know what it means to eat a family?"

Hua Chengyu shook his head. He had only heard of it before, but had never seen what it meant to eat up a family's entirety.

"To have no descendants means to have no offspring, and to eat means to bully and oppress." Xu Damao let out a long breath: "I've seen it. A few years ago, there was a compound on Qianmen Street. A family in the compound had no children. When the male owner of the family died, only the women were left in the family. The people in the compound would unite to bully them until the women in the family were forced to live and had no choice but to leave or wait for death."

"After the family was wiped out, they were buried hastily without even a grave."

"There is such a thing? This is a new society now, and it is not acceptable to eat the whole family!" Hua Chengyu was shocked.

"Haha! Think about it, there are hundreds of people in a compound, what can a woman do? This is why the old man has always wanted to find someone to take care of him in his old age. He also wants someone to take care of him when he is old, and someone to take care of him after he dies, so that he won't be left with no one." Xu Damao sneered.

"The uncle has such a high salary and there are only two people in his family. Why doesn't he adopt a child and raise him from childhood to adulthood? The couple are not too old, only in their fifties. It's totally in time." This is also what Hua Chengyu doesn't understand.

Find a two or three year old child who doesn't have much memory.

Isn't it better to raise someone from childhood than to find someone like Jia Dongxu, Sha Zhu, or Qin Huairu?

Why is Yi Yi Zhong Hai so persistent in finding someone to take care of his elderly care?

"A great man won't adopt a child. You know the Li family in the front yard, right?" Xu Damao picked up the wine and toasted Hua Chengyu again.

Hua Chengyu nodded: "Doesn't he have a child at home? What does it have to do with an old man?"

"You don't know this. The Li family's child was born later. They adopted a child before, in 57. That child was also adopted through the street. Just last year, the family came to the door and said that the child was abducted by human traffickers. They insisted that the Li family was the traffickers and compensated the family with a sum of money. In the end, the child was taken back."

"In the second half of the year, Li's wife became pregnant and gave birth to a big fat boy this year."

"The man from the Li family should also be infertile. They have been married for eight years, and suddenly got pregnant last year. Do you think she should have a child?"

"How would I know about such things! Brother Damao, it's not good to talk about such things casually, be careful not to cause trouble." Hua Chengyu warned.

"Of course I know this. If I hadn't been diagnosed with infertility, I wouldn't have thought about this. Now that I think about it, I must have a child." Xu Damao said affirmatively.

"So, brother, I want to have a child with you too!"

"This..." Hua Chengyu was speechless. What was Xu Damao thinking, pushing his beautiful wife into someone else's bed?

"Hey, brother, can you please do me a favor? I beg you! I'll kneel down for you." Xu Damao was about to kneel down as he said that.

"Brother Damao, what are you doing? This is too big a matter. I need to go back and think about it!" He stood up and helped Xu Damao up.

"Okay, there's no rush. Think about it carefully, and I'll discuss it with Xiao'e." Xu Damao waved his hand: "Come on, let's continue drinking, brothers!"

After drinking for two hours, Hua Chengyu returned to the house and fell asleep.

In the dream......
