Siheyuan, my new life

Chapter 272: Trip to Shandong Province 4

After dealing with the affairs of Old Man Wu's family, Zhou Yu and his companions continued to head southwest, first arriving at Yilin, an old revolutionary base. Five of the martyrs who died in the Pioneer Camp were originally from here.

The trip in Yilin was very smooth. Although the families of these martyrs all lived in economically backward rural areas and their living conditions were very difficult, Yilin was an old revolutionary base and the local government attached great importance to supporting the military and their families. In addition to the pensions issued by the state, local government departments also did their best to provide a lot of care for the families of revolutionary martyrs.

Zhou Yu and Zhou Zhou were the ones who gave away money in Yilin. When they saw that there were more than a dozen families of martyrs in a small village with only one or two hundred households, even old monsters like them who had survived for countless years could not help but be moved.

So in addition to giving 200 kilograms of rice, 200 kilograms of flour, 30 cans of food, 20 bags of milk powder and 2,000 yuan in cash to each family of the martyrs from the Pioneer Camp on the list, an additional 100 kilograms of rice, 100 kilograms of flour, 20 cans of food, 10 bags of milk powder and 200 yuan were given to each family of the martyrs in the village.

Although this amount is just a drop in the bucket for the two of them, they also understand that too much is as bad as too little, and any more would be a bit unreasonable.

After the trip to Yilin, the Shandong Province's visit to the martyrs of the Pioneer Camp is coming to an end. Now only two martyrs have not been visited by their families. One is Martyr Qian Yongqiang, who was originally from Jinning in northwest Shandong, and the other is Martyr Wei Dashan, who was originally from Guyang in southwest Shandong. Martyr Wei Dashan used his flesh and blood to block bullets for his original owner on the battlefield of the Northern Dynasty. Although he was sent to the rear for emergency treatment, he eventually died due to his serious injuries.

Before leaving, Qinglian Palace's chief steward Zhou Tian specifically instructed Zhou Yu and Zhou Zhou to take special care of Wei Dashan's family.

Zhou Yu and Zhou Zhou had already made plans in advance. After they finished their work in Yilin, they would first go to Guyang in southwestern Shandong to visit and comfort the family of martyr Wei Dashan, and then visit the family of martyr Qian Yongqiang when they passed through Jining on their way back to the capital.

So the two drove the jeep on the road to Guyang. To be honest, the current road is not only bumpy, but also very narrow, which can barely reach the level of a two-lane road.

Zhou Yu drove the jeep on the bumpy road. With his and Zhou Zhou's cultivation, it would only take a thought for them to reach Guyang in the southwest of Shandong. However, Zhou Yu recently liked to drive the jeep slowly while appreciating the local customs and practices around him. In addition, he was about to complete the mission successfully, so he wanted to continue traveling in the outside world. After all, although the paradise was good, it would still be a bit boring to stay in it for many years. Now he had the opportunity to travel around in the outside world, which could be regarded as a way to relax.

Zhou Zhou didn't care about these things, as long as he could complete the task.

After a whole day of bumpy ride, the jeep driven by Zhou Yu finally arrived at Weijiazhuang, Guyang at around four o'clock in the afternoon.

When Zhou Yu showed the letter of introduction to the militiamen standing guard at the village entrance and casually asked about the home of martyr Wei Dashan, the answers from the two militiamen on guard made Zhou Yu's heart surge.

After carefully reading the letter of introduction, one of the militiamen asked in confusion: "Comrade, did you make a mistake? Although there is a man named Wei Dashan in our village, he is not a martyr, but a missing person. I heard from our director that most of these missing persons were captured by the Bald Eagle Alliance. They are simply a shame for our Weijia Village."

After hearing what the militia said, Zhou Yu's expression did not change at all, but he felt a chill in his heart. He got out of the car, took out a box of Peony cigarettes, took out two cigarettes and handed them to the militia on guard, and said with a smile: "Brother, you have worked hard, come and have a cigarette."

The two militiamen usually rolled their own cigarettes out of newspapers and smoked them. Occasionally, they would spend eight cents to buy a box of economical cigarettes, and then they would show off in front of their companions for several days.

The police officer who got off the jeep handed over a pack of Mudan cigarettes. The two militiamen had only seen this kind of high-end cigarettes at 56 cents a box on the counter of the supply and marketing cooperative. Even the director of the cooperative in Weijia Village usually smoked economical cigarettes, and only when the leading cadres from higher levels came would he buy a pack of Daqianmen to make things look good.

The militia had checked the other party's letter of introduction just now and knew that this was a police officer from the Beijing Public Security Bureau, so they had already let down their guard. Now seeing the cigarette handed over by someone, they hurriedly took it with joy. However, they did not light up the cigarette to taste the taste of this high-end cigarette immediately, but instead they both put the cigarette between their ears at the same time, intending to show off in front of their friends when they returned.

Zhou Yu took out two more cigarettes and handed them to the other party, saying with a smile: "Come on, light one up."

This time the two militiamen were straightforward. They struck a match, lit it, and took a deep sip. One of them even closed his eyes, looking intoxicated.

Zhou Yu also lit a cigarette and asked with a smile: "What are your names, comrades?"

The militiaman standing on the left took a puff of his cigarette and bared his yellow teeth and said, "We all have the surname Wei. My name is Wei Hongjun and his name is Wei Ying. In our Weijia Village, most people have the surname Wei. By the way, I haven't asked you why you came to our village from the capital?"

Zhou Yu flicked the ash off his cigarette and said with a smile: "We are on a business trip to Guyang. A colleague asked us to visit Wei Dashan's family in Weijia Village. This colleague of ours was a comrade-in-arms with Wei Dashan on the battlefield of the Northern Dynasty. Later, he was injured and transferred to work at the Beijing City Public Security Bureau. He knew that we were on a business trip to Guyang, so he asked us to take a trip to find out about Wei Dashan's situation. Since that colleague transferred to another job, he has not been able to contact Wei Dashan. He wants us to go to Wei Dashan's home to inquire about his current contact information."

Wei Hongjun snorted disdainfully: "Go back and tell your colleagues that Wei Dashan disappeared in the Northern Dynasty battlefield. Our director said that he was most likely captured by the Bald Eagle Alliance. Wei Dashan's mother didn't believe it when she heard about it. She went to the township and county people's armed forces to check, but in the end she couldn't find any news about Wei Dashan. After returning, he didn't eat or drink for four or five days and even admitted himself to the hospital. Wei Dashan's wife even sold the house to treat her mother-in-law, but in the end she couldn't save him. Wei Dashan's wife could only take her six-year-old daughter back to her parents' home, Liujiazhuang. Unfortunately, Liu Yan was the most beautiful girl in our area. Almost all the people who came to her house to propose marriage had trampled down her door, including Wei Hu, the eldest son of the director of our Weijia Village, and Wei Dashan, a platoon leader in the army. Although Wei Hu is not as good-looking as Wei Dashan, his second uncle is an official in the county people's armed forces department and his third uncle is a leader in the township government. There are many girls in the neighborhood who want to marry into the Wei family, but Wei Hu chose Liu Yan. Who would have thought that Liu Yan would choose to marry Wei Dashan. Now Wei Dashan is missing, but Wei Hu has become an official in the township government. "
