Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 43: Reversal of Public Opinion
Yi Zhonghai is indeed good at this. The direction of public opinion turned to the identity of the deaf old lady. In this era, soldiers have the highest status, and being a martyr's family member is no joke. Both the related benefits and status are quite high!
To put it bluntly, if a martyr's relative falls down at your doorstep, you will be punished if you dare not pay!

Military sub-districts must pay regular condolences. Soldiers sacrifice their lives for national independence, and their families are equally glorious!
Even in the later ages when materialism is rampant and emotions are weak, the state will be responsible for the underage children of martyrs' relatives until they are 18 years old, and the elderly and their wives will have corresponding benefits!
Not to mention this era, when a century of war has just ended. This was achieved with the sacrifices of countless soldiers. Even the military green uniforms are the trend of this era. Without some connections, you really can't wear them!

When He Yuzhu got home from get off work, he was stunned by the wildly spreading news. Aren't many things unavoidable?
In the play, the story about the deaf old lady giving straw sandals to the Red Army was spread the most by He Yuzhu. Now that He Yuzhu has stopped spreading it, the news is bound to come out!
I guess this is Yi Zhonghai's countermeasure! How can I let you get what you want? The deaf old lady's "immortal golden body" must be broken, otherwise Yi Zhonghai will be a demon in the future.

Those who can handle it can do it by themselves, and those who can't handle it will come out, and they will work together perfectly and be in cahoots with each other. . .

He Yuzhu used all the words he could think of. The old man is not a good person. It can be seen from the fact that he schemed against Lou Xiaoe. Is this something a "kind old man" would do?
He Yuzhu rolled his eyes. If anyone could stir up another wave of public opinion in the shortest time, it would have to be the street aunties. He Yuzhu didn’t want to expose himself, so he could only rely on...

He Yuzhu smiled. If the aunt can't help, what if the children can? Thinking of this, He Yuzhu smiled and lay on the table to compose lyrics. What should he compose? Of course, it's a nursery rhyme in Beijing!

He Yushui looked at He Yuzhu in confusion. Although she was young, she always felt that her brother was weird. Then she was attracted by the rag doll given by Wang Dana. The world of children is so simple!
True or False

There are many things going on in the streets and alleys, and some people like to change their identities;
A fake person with a fake face and a fake name, pretending to be a martyr's relative and making up nonsense.

Nanluoguxiang is easy to be deaf and confused, and things are hard to distinguish;
Number 95 was also restless, and someone took his place.

Everyone should keep their eyes open and not be fooled by fake faces;
If you discover a fake identity, expose it immediately and show no mercy.

Only when we keep honesty and kindness in our hearts can the world be truly peaceful!
After He Yuzhu finished writing, he nodded with satisfaction, feeling that it was almost done. The Beijing nursery rhyme about Lang Lang's wound would spread in a very short time. He wanted to see how Yi Zhonghai would respond!

The most crucial thing is that the subdistrict office is about to be established, and the nursery rhyme represents a certain public opinion. He Yuzhu doesn't believe that Director Wang will not investigate, and the mystery will naturally be solved in time!

He Yuzhu thinks that the statement about sending shoes to the Red Army is pure nonsense. If supplies were sent to the guerrillas and the underground tunnels, He Yuzhu believes that it is not impossible. Lou Zhenhua did send supplies to the guerrillas and the Eighth Route Army!

But sending straw sandals to the Red Army is pure nonsense. The Red Army's activities were in the south, even during the Long March, they were still in the south. The deaf old lady is an old lady with bound feet, there are a lot of problems here!
The deaf old lady's age shows that she was young in the late Qing Dynasty, so the identity of the old lady with bound feet may be a woman from an official or wealthy family, in line with the social aesthetic standards for women at that time! Most civilians did not bind their feet. In the late Qing Dynasty, civilian women were also an important labor force. How could they engage in physical labor with bound feet? Therefore, the identity of the deaf old lady is probably not as simple as a civilian!
The next morning, He Yuzhu took an hour off, pasted on a beard, and after a simple disguise, he rode his bicycle back to Nanluoguxiang and found the place where children often played. He used sand candy as bait to induce the children to learn the Beijing nursery rhymes he made up. Those who learned quickly were rewarded with a sand candy, and those who learned it well were also rewarded with sand candy!
Children all like candy, and they quickly learned how to make it under the temptation of sand-board candies. After He Yuzhu confirmed again and again that they had learned it, he let them sing and play in Nanluoguxiang. After leaving all the sand-board candies behind, he walked to an empty corner, took out his bicycles, and left quickly!

He Yuzhu came out temporarily and only whispered to his master. No one else knew he had left, even if someone investigated He Yuzhu afterwards and he had an alibi!

It is better to be careful in this era. If you want to survive in this era, you must first respect the rules of this era. People who spread rumors will be despised!
He Yuzhu wanted to buy some White Rabbit milk candies, but unfortunately that thing only appeared in 59 and is not available now. The only candies available on the market in Beijing now are Beijing Crispy Candies and Sand Candies. The prices are a little expensive. He spent five thousand yuan, but for He Yuzhu, it was all worth it!
As the children sang nursery rhymes in Nanluoguxiang, doubts about the deaf old lady's identity soon emerged. Young girls, young wives, uncles and aunts expressed their opinions. Some believed that the deaf old lady's identity as a martyr's relative was real, while others believed it was fake, and the basis for their belief was that she had given straw sandals to the Red Army!
When Yi Zhonghai came home from get off work and learned about this, his eyes went dark. He was sure that someone was secretly making trouble. It was worth considering who this person was. Liu Haizhong's ability was very low, so he could basically be ruled out. He did not have such talent.

Yan Bugui was capable of writing it, but he was deeply aware of the arrogance in his bones, which was evident from the fact that he even paid a fee for writing Spring Festival couplets for others.
The only one left is Xu Fugui. This guy can come up with such lyrics. The projectionist has to explain when showing the movie, so it is a very easy thing for Xu Fugui!
Yi Zhonghai looked at Yan Bugui's second son Yan Jiefang with a grim face. He was playing in the mud and singing, and he was really having fun singing!
"Jie Kuang, where did you learn this song? You sing it quite well!"

"Uncle Yi, someone taught me today. If you learn it, you can get candy. I got a lot of rewards, but unfortunately my mother took them away, so she left one for me!"

Yan Jiefang thought of the three candies that were taken away, and his mouth curled up as if he was about to cry. Yi Zhonghai felt his pocket and found that there was no candy. He had no choice but to take out a 500-yuan bill and give it to Yan Jiefang!

"Jie Kuang, uncle will give you some money, use it to buy candy, and then tell uncle what the person who teaches singing looks like, can you see it clearly?"

"Funny? Oh, I remember now. After I got the candy, I saw a man riding a bicycle who looked very similar to the man who taught singing. His face... I can't remember!"

After saying that, he looked at Yi Zhonghai warily, fearing that he would regret it if he gave a bad answer. Yi Zhonghai had no time to care about Yan Jiekuang's thoughts. He stood up and walked while thinking!

Only He Yuzhu and Xu Fugui had bicycles in the compound. Of course, Xu Fugui's bicycle was provided by the steel rolling mill for the projectionist. If he used a simple disguise, Yan Jiekuang might not be able to recognize him!

He Yuzhu can basically be ruled out as he was busy preparing food at Fengzeyuan in the morning. Besides, He Yuzhu is a child, not an uncle, and his age cannot be disguised!
Poor Yi Zhonghai ignored the fact that Yan Jiekuang was only a child of six or seven years old. All he had eyes for was the candy, so he had no time to observe the name of the person giving him the candy!
