The conspiracy of the courtyard

After the district chief finished reporting on the courtyard house, he held the phone and waited for a while, saying "yes" several times, and then hung up after saying "we will definitely cooperate."

Turning around, he asked, "Zhiqin, did you see any clocks or watches at Chen Ping's house?"

Director Wang thought for a while and replied, "Nothing was found."

"Then we have to find an excuse to invite her. What excuse do you think is appropriate?

A female comrade with a child, who just came from the countryside, has no job, no friends, lives in a yard full of people, and is monitored by people who are not sure whether they are enemies or friends, and it is late at night. This is really a difficult problem.

How can we do this without anyone noticing? Women, children, and a slum…”

The district chief kept muttering until he smoked his fourth cigarette, then he slapped his head and said, "Yes, chaos is a good excuse. Xiuqin, I'll go to the Military Control Commission right away, you go and make the arrangements..." After discussing it, the two of them immediately went their separate ways.

At the same time, Chen Ping's family

[My beautiful mother, can you estimate the time at night? ] Lu Zixuan asked in his heart

"No," Chen Ping answered readily.

[This... is so straightforward, I forgot the lyrics. Haha, mom, you are really good, I really appreciate your frankness...

What should I do? It is true that even the wisest man can make mistakes. Now that I have money, I will buy you a watch. I wanted to do something big secretly, but I got stuck on time.

I can only hope that Director Wang can help me. Otherwise, how can I make up for all the brain cells I have wasted? Oh, it's really frustrating.]

Lu Zixuan muttered in his heart

"That's not a problem. What kind of tonic do you want? I'll buy it for you to eat and then increase your milk supply. Don't worry, it'll make you full." Chen Ping joked with her son.

Lu Zixuan was amused. [Haha… Tell me, who are you? Give me back my domineering, arrogant, and graceful mother, or I will pee on you. I am not afraid to tell you that boy’s pee will reveal your true colors, hum]

"Ah? I am your bright-eyed, white-toothed, gentle and considerate biological mother. If you dare to offend me, I will cut off your food supply. Hehe, I won't wash your rice bowl yet, let's see what you can do."

Lu Zixuan pretended to be angry [Eh? You dare to threaten me? You are awesome, wow... I am so angry, come on, if you like, hug me]

"Hmm? You give in so quickly? Then I have to see if you are still my smart, cute, and sharp-tongued son."

The mother and son were having fun when they heard a group of people outside the yard shouting "Catch the thief"...

Lu Zixuan was scornful in his heart: "Fuck, you don't know any other tricks? You can change to catching wanted criminals. When I hear the word thief, I almost peed."

"How can you be sure? What if it's to catch a thief?"

Lu Zixuan was puzzled. [Oh my god, I just praised you for being smart and your IQ dropped? Which family has so many? And they are all so young? Did they come to the gate of our courtyard to shout?]

[Hey, mom, your bellyband is really... hard to describe, and these pants... are too ugly. I'd better teach you how to make a few sets of underwear some other day. I feel bad looking at you.]

Chen Ping said as if it was normal: "What's wrong? Isn't it like this? There are no patches, it's not rotten, it's fine, don't make a fuss about it, if you scare me and make me stop breastfeeding, you will be the one who suffers."

Lu Zixuan is being funny [Oh my god, mom, why are you threatening my family again? My family went through 7749 disasters before being reborn in your belly, and you actually despise my family? I won’t stand it anymore]

"Hey, what did you say? Why do I feel like throwing up? Oh my God, listening to other people talk makes me angry at best, but listening to you talk can make me sick to death, do you know that?

Alas… Actually, I have been reluctant to tell you, fearing that you would be sad. I think I should tell you now. I am afraid that I will be sick to death and no one will tell you. I, your mother, went through ninety-nine eighty-one hardships to give birth to you.

You should be more filial and stop disgusting your mother. When you get married, go and disgust her. I, your mother, am old and can’t stand it anymore, haha.”

Chen Ping also played and laughed with Lu Zixuan

Lu Zixuan praised [OK, you are awesome, my hands are out of control, otherwise I would give you a thumbs up]

[Hey, hey, wait, wait, even if you are angry you can't leave my hat behind]

Lu Zixuan was shocked [Oh my god, this is such a big scene, there are so many torches, these shoes...

I really want to spray you guys to death with a mouthful of salt soda, you old Jiefang. Damn it, are you guys serious about acting? It's going to kill me! 】

[Mom, Director Wang is on the left, come closer and listen to what he says]

"Director Wang, what can I say? You are really not afraid of big trouble. Even a fool can see that something is wrong. I really don't know how I have offended you. Do you really want me to die?" Chen Ping complained

"What? Is there something wrong?" Director Wang asked in confusion.

"Well, I don't know if you really don't know or are just pretending to be stupid. Look at this torch, is there any bent one?

Don't understand? Which ordinary people would be willing to use such a straight stick as a torch? Who would be willing to cover the entire fire with kerosene?

And these shoes, even a blind person can tell they are from the military.

Look at the people you've found. Wow, it's really hard for you. They're all short-haired, energetic young men. Are you taking them on a blind date?" Chen Ping said, suppressing her anger.

"We really didn't think so much about it. If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known there were so many loopholes. Time is too tight. Sorry, well, well..." Director Wang blushed and said

"Don't worry about being exposed. It's already out in the open. Just say that there are enemy spies sneaking into the courtyard. Take all the men to the empty room in the backyard and keep them there. All women and children should go home and not go out.

We started by examining each of them in the front yard, asking about their travel plans over the past week and finding someone to testify. Finally, we interrogated Lu Zhihai and told him that he would not be allowed to go home until I came back.

In addition, someone was hired to search every house, especially vacant houses and those recently occupied. Two men were carefully checked. One had deep eye sockets and a high nose bridge, a solid lower body, and was about 1 to 75 meters tall. He loved to eat peanuts.

The other one is about 1 meters tall. The index and middle fingers of his right hand are similar in length, with thick calluses between the two fingers. Both of them have kung fu and weapons. That's all. You can go and report." Chen Ping said in a slow tone

Director Wang didn't say anything, just looked at Chen Ping meaningfully, then turned and left.

Lu Zixuan began to teach Chen Ping: "When you get on the bus later, no matter who asks you, just say what I teach you, and speak slowly so that I can correct you in time."

[You do this…that…]

Soon, Director Wang gave instructions step by step according to what Chen Ping said. There were two middle-aged men at the door who kept staring at Chen Ping. Chen Ping just glanced at them and turned to go home.

About half an hour later, Chen Ping's door was pushed open. The two middle-aged men filed in, and one of them said with a smile: "Comrade Chen, get ready..."

"Excuse me, what time is it now?" Chen Ping asked coldly.

The middle-aged man looked at his watch and said awkwardly: "11:20"

Chen Ping immediately stood up, wrapped her son in a cotton-padded jacket, and walked out the door, saying, "Let's go."

The two looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and quickly followed Chen Ping.
