The conspiracy of the courtyard

"It's like this. You know what happened in my family during this period. Could you please help contact the power supply company? It's really troublesome without electricity. Besides, my family has to pay compensation and get injured. Too many things have happened. I really can't bear it anymore, so I came to you for help. Can you think of a way? Don't worry, I won't let your help be in vain. How about 5 kilograms of flour? Ten kilograms? This is all I can give." Yan Bugui said at the end with a frustrated look on his face, and he was about to cry.

"Teacher Yan, I shook my head to mean that you found the wrong person. Go to the street office to find Officer Zhao. He should be able to help you solve the problem. His relatives also need to contact the power supply company. It's more effective for you to go directly to him than to me. I really don't know him, but you may have to pay a lot more than we did before. Okay, I've solved the problem for you. I'm going home now." After Chen Ping made the suggestion, she left without waiting for Yan Bugui's response.

"Son, how did you know he would look for me?" Chen Ping asked anxiously as soon as she entered the room.

"Because... he has no one... to turn to," Lu Zixuan said with difficulty. Yes, this month, Lu Zixuan not only learned to walk, but also spoke incoherently.

Because Chen Ping said that his voice has become smaller, Lu Zixuan is anxious, afraid that he is too young to do some things, so he can only let Chen Ping do it for him. If this only golden finger also disappears, what should he do during this period of time when he can't speak?

Many of Chen Ping's suggestions were made by him. He had to learn to speak urgently. During the six months or so following Chen Ping, Lu Zixuan was not idle. He took every opportunity to learn traditional Chinese characters. He heard that the district had temporarily transferred a foreign student who was proficient in Russian to study Russian with him. However, Chen Ping forgot what she learned and learned almost nothing. Lu Zixuan was small and good at acting cute, so he learned most of the commonly used words. Although he could not speak them for the time being, he practiced them repeatedly in his mind, and even translated for himself. Sometimes he would translate to Chen Ping in his mind, so that Chen Ping could learn slowly.

Why do people say Chen Ping has the potential to be a heroine? A word she blurted out made everyone look at her with new eyes. They all thought she could learn it in two days and regarded her as a genius. She is not a genius at all. Lu Zixuan just told her that. There is no point in explaining it. There is no way to explain it. I simply won't explain it. Whatever.

Isn't it a coincidence that a foreign guest really came to the street office for business. When he went to the canteen to ask for something, a bunch of people didn't know what he said, and Chen Ping muttered ketchup, and someone heard it. Well, she was blessed by the academic god, and this time it was confirmed. The foreign students in the district left, and a group of foreign workers came. Chen Ping was asked to act as an interpreter. This time he was exposed. Lu Zixuan quickly found a newspaper and deliberately circled the three words "Embassy" in front of Director Wang. Director Wang was so shocked that he kept shouting "Lucky Star!"

Lu Zixuan was speechless. He had seen people cheat their parents and their children, but this was the first time he had seen someone cheat himself. He could only learn to speak faster and use his not-so-flexible hand to learn to write traditional Chinese characters. Lu Zixuan had originally wanted to practice writing after school, and maybe he would start using simplified Chinese characters by then? Who knew these things would happen? So many things were squeezed together, and Lu Zixuan was so worried that he wanted to smoke.

Lu Zixuan was really speechless. [Just do it. When you do it to the point where you have to earn money for bullets, that will be the end. I have warned you countless times, countless times, why are you so talkative? Forget it, it’s useless to scold anyone. I blame myself. You should take care of yourself in the future.]

Lu Zixuan could only relax himself. He had discovered a long time ago that he could block out his inner voice. That half year was his experiment. Obviously, it worked, and it also made Chen Ping face herself and remember it, so that she would not act recklessly again.

From that day on, whenever he was at work, Lu Zixuan went directly to Director Wang and stopped talking to Chen Ping. There was no way to explain it. He wanted to scold her as soon as he spoke. Lu Zixuan even suspected that there was such a thing as a brain-dead movie. Otherwise, how could such a smart person always make inexplicable mistakes? Chen Ping had a lot of problems again. Of course, she was pretending. She wanted to restore the intimacy with her son, but it seemed that all her efforts were in vain.

Two months passed while Lu Zixuan was studying hard. On that day, Zhang Jun invited people from the street office to dinner. Chen Ping thought that since he already had a partner, she could just go. There were so many people there. Chen Ping went to find Lu Zixuan. Lu Zixuan was stunned at first because Chen Ping would never come to him during work hours.

"Zhang Jun is inviting us to dinner. Everyone is going. Are you going?" Chen Ping asked with a guilty conscience, because her son had told her to stay away from Zhang Jun, but today he agreed without thinking. She just hoped that her son would not blame her. If her son was angry, he would not say a word to her. Lu Zixuan shook his head and continued to practice sharpening the pencil.

"I know I was wrong, I won't talk too fast anymore, can I double the punishment next time I make a mistake?" "Double what?" Chen Ping was about to ask again, but was interrupted by Director Wang's words. Chen Ping felt bitter, one was not enough to coax, and another one came. How to coax these two together? She didn't know how to do it, so she could only smile awkwardly.

"Okay, I get it. You agreed to dinner again without thinking, right? Can't you control yourself? How many times has this happened? When did my grandson not clean up your mess? As for the translation matter, if it weren't for my grandson, you would have been deported long ago for lying and deceiving the government. You are lucky to have a good son. If you agreed, just go. He can't eat you up, and besides..."

"Stop, godmother, no, you are my real mother, don't mention this again. If you mention it again, I will be angry with you. If I get angry, you'd better be careful that Comrade Chen will scold you. It's not easy to get to where we are today. I'm just a bit sloppy today. I'll bother my good son again later. So, I heard that Zhuzi learned a new soup yesterday. How about it?" When he heard that Director Wang was going to bring up the old matter again, he immediately stopped and quickly turned to Lu Zixuan to ask for a flattering answer.

Lu Zixuan thought about it and nodded: "Okay, what time?"

Chen Ping excitedly picked up Lu Zixuan and shouted, "My dear son, you are really my own son. You don't have to come too early, half an hour is enough. Godmother, if you are not my own mother, I will cooperate with you. Your own daughter and grandson have cooperated. As the highest leader of the family, you cannot leave the family."

Director Wang rolled his eyes at Chen Ping, broke free and said, "Alright, alright. Cooperate, cooperate. Xuanxuan, how did I know you still have a craving for food? Don't listen to your mother's unreliable words and eat those messy things. We still have milk powder at home. If you are hungry, drink milk powder. It is nutritious. Chen Ping, if my grandson has diarrhea or something, I will blame you.

Oh, I almost forgot something important. The gold bars you donated last time were converted into money and distributed to the families of the comrades who died on the front line. The city and the district have issued a certificate of merit, which you will take away later. Keep these certificates in case someone uses the past to attack you in the future.

In addition, our district is also preparing to raise funds for the front line, both money and food are fine. You go and inform Xiao Zhao to quickly put an end to the power outage, and I will be responsible for the donation with you. Okay, I will go and ask for leave for you first. You said you said something wrong, and you had to help a few people to cover up the lie. I really owe you."

Chen Ping quickly put Lu Zixuan down, hugged Director Wang and kissed him twice, and thanked him: "Thank you, Mom. Otherwise, you are my biological mother. I will go to Xiao Zhao right away and ensure that I complete the task assigned by the leader."
