Siheyuan: The wife was intercepted after returning from the battlefield

Everyone applauded enthusiastically when they heard the words. They felt at ease with Lin Ping around. After Lin Ping said a few more words, Li Shengli let everyone go and led Lin Ping to the deputy director's office.

"Pingzi, after Wang Debiao's accident, the higher-ups didn't send a new deputy director, so the office hasn't been cleaned up. Please clean it up by yourself and come to the cafeteria to eat later."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Director, I won't go to the cafeteria after I finish cleaning up the office. I need to go home first and tell my family that I was taken away by judicial personnel so early in the morning. I'm afraid my family will worry."

Li Shengli slapped his forehead when he heard this and said, "Look at my memory. I should go home and report my safety first. Well, you go ahead and we'll talk tomorrow."

After seeing Li Shengli off, Lin Ping started to tidy up the office. He was very happy. He didn't expect that he would become the deputy director without any idea.

Siheyuan.

Lin Ping was taken away by judicial personnel, but Sister Lin Qingyan was not too worried, after all, Director Zhou had come yesterday. But Wang Xiuzhi was extremely worried, not knowing why her son was taken away by judicial personnel. Although Sister Lin Qingyan said that her son was fine, Wang Xiuzhi felt uneasy, so she stayed in the west wing and waited for Lin Ping to come back.

When the people in the courtyard saw Lin Ping being called away by the judicial personnel, they all thought that Lin Ping had gotten into trouble again. After all, the Lin family lived so well that it was normal for some people to be jealous and report them. Also, because everyone had received help from Wang Xiuzhi in the past two days, they didn't want anything to happen to Lin Ping from the bottom of their hearts. Otherwise, if something happened to Lin Ping, how would Wang Xiuzhi help them?

Lou Xiao'e and Lin Qingyan were good sisters, and they also came to the west wing to persuade Wang Xiuzhi, "Auntie Wang, don't worry. Didn't Pingzi say that everything is fine? You have to believe him. Didn't the big incident pass in the past?"

Wang Xiuzhi finally felt relieved after hearing what Lou Xiaoe said. She nodded and said, "Yes, I have to believe Pingzi. He is not the one who does illegal things."

When Jia Zhang saw Lin Ping being taken away, she sat at the door, sewing shoe soles while gloating, "It's what he deserves. Who told that Lin family kid not to help my family? Everyone in the courtyard helped, so why didn't he help our Jia family? This is retribution."

Auntie Yi at the door shook her head secretly when she heard this, thinking, who can help you in your current state? Besides, Lin Ping might not be in trouble. Aren't you happy too early? You were able to kill people without any harm back then, let alone now?

Auntie San in the front yard was also talking to Yu Li about Lin Ping. Yu Li smiled and said, "Mom, Lin Ping is very capable. How could anything happen to him? I think you are just worrying too much."

Auntie San had just received more than ten kilograms of corn flour from Lin Qingyan yesterday. She didn't want Lin Ping to get into trouble at this moment. If Lin Ping got into trouble, who would send corn flour to her family? So she nodded and said, "Well, you're right, I was worrying too much."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ping walked into the yard in a police uniform. Auntie San was stunned when she saw him and asked stutteringly, "Ping... Pingzi, are you a police officer now?"

In Aunt San's opinion, how could Lin Ping be a cadre since he was expelled in the first place? She still had some common sense, so she was shocked to see Lin Ping in a police uniform.

Lin Ping did not hide anything and explained with a smile: "Auntie San, my case was overturned, so I was reinstated. And because the steel mill already had a security chief, I was transferred to our Red Star Police Station as deputy chief."

Auntie San smiled and said, "That's great. I said you were forced to do so. Look, the verdict has been overturned. This is what they call good things come to those who wait. Go home and tell Xiuzhi the good news. She must be so anxious right now."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go back first then." After that, he said hello to Grandma Zhang and Wang Cui'e, and quickened his pace.

When passing by the Intermediate Courtyard, Jia Zhang saw that Lin Ping was not only fine but also came back in a police uniform. She quickly picked up Xiaodang and ran into the house.

West across the courtyard.

Wang Xiuzhi and others were surprised to see that Lin Ping not only returned safely but was also wearing a police uniform, and asked, "Pingzi, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Ping smiled and explained, "Mom, my original case was overturned, so I was reinstated. And because the position at the steel mill was already filled, I was transferred to our Red Star Police Station as deputy director, enjoying the treatment of a regular section chief."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiuzhi smiled happily and said, "Okay, okay, okay. Mom is happy that you can heal her. If your dad knew, he would be so happy." As she spoke, her eyes turned red.

Ever since Lin Ping got into trouble, Wang Xiuzhi didn't say anything, but she still felt sorry for her son in her heart. Such a good section chief was gone. Although he is now a purchaser in the district, he is not as glamorous as a cadre. How could she not be happy to hear that her son was reinstated?

Lin Ping certainly understood Wang Xiuzhi's feelings. Which parent in the world doesn't want their son to be successful?

It was not easy for his family to produce a cadre, but he was gone without any reason. How could he not be disappointed? He just kept it in his heart and said with a smile, "Mom, we will be better in the future."

Hearing this, Wang Xiuzhi wiped her wet eyes and smiled, "Okay, Mom believes you."

Only then did Lou Xiao'e come over and say, "Congratulations, Pingzi."

Lin Ping nodded and smiled: "Thank you."

Lin Qingya jumped over and said, "So you will be my leader in the future?"

Then he reacted and said, "I mean Qingya's leader."

Wang Xiuzhi was immersed in the joy of her son's reinstatement and did not notice anything unusual, but Lou Xiao'e's face became strange, and she thought, could it be...

Lin Qingyan secretly blamed Lin Qingya for being careless, and hurried over to say angrily: "Sister, you are still pregnant, you can't jump like this."

Lin Qingya smiled and said, "Oh, I know."

Seeing the strange look, Lou Xiao'e became uncertain again. Lin Ping interrupted her and said, "Mom, let's all come to my place tonight and have a good meal."

Wang Xiuzhi smiled and nodded, "Okay, we should celebrate."

In the evening, the fragrance wafted from the west wing again, causing Jia Zhang to curse again. She stood up and said, "Does this kid from the Lin family want to let us live? If not, I'll go talk to the second master." After that, she got up and went out to find Liu Haizhong.

Qin Huairu shook her head secretly when she saw this. If Yi Zhonghai was still here, it would be possible to persuade Lin Ping to donate grain. Liu Haizhong was just a fool, how could he possibly defeat Lin Ping? Besides, Lin Ping was now the deputy director.

Not to mention what Qin Huairu thought, when Liu Haizhong came back and learned that Lin Ping had become the deputy director, he felt unbalanced again. He had worked diligently for so many years but had not gotten any official position. Why should Lin Ping, a man with a criminal record, become an official?

Therefore, he decided to find out. If Lin Ping used a backdoor, he would report it. But he didn't think about what he, an ordinary worker, could find out.

Just when Liu Haizhong was thinking about Lin Ping, Jia Zhang came to visit. When Second Aunt saw Jia Zhang coming in, she immediately took away the cornmeal balls on the table. She knew what kind of person Jia Zhang was. If she really let her take one away, she would be at a great loss, as her family was not well-off.

As soon as Jia Zhang entered the house, she saw Aunt Er starting to hide the steamed bread. The Liu Guangtian brothers also sped up their eating speed. The corners of her mouth twitched, but she did not forget the business. She looked at Liu Haizhong and said, "Uncle Er, do you care about the Lin family? What era is it now? Do you think the Lin family can survive by eating like this?"

Liu Haizhong was startled when he heard this, and then he smelled a faint fragrance in the air. He knew that the Lin family had started eating meat again, so he frowned and said, "The Lin family is too outrageous."

Jia Zhang took the opportunity to test him: "Second Master, since the Lin family is not short of food, why don't we hold a meeting and ask the Lin family to donate some food to everyone?"

Liu Haizhong's eyes lit up when he heard this. Since Yi Zhonghai had been in prison, there hadn't been a general meeting. He, the second uncle, was almost a decoration. So he pretended to be calm and said, "I think it's okay. Since the Lin family has surplus food, it's only right to help our neighbors. I'll discuss it with Old Yan and hold a meeting later."

Jia Zhang got a satisfactory answer and said with a smile: "Okay, I will go back first. Master Er, please remember to donate more food to my family."

After Jia Zhang left, Aunt Er frowned and said, "Master, don't let Jia Zhang use you. As far as I know, the Lin family has helped the people in the courtyard a lot."

Upon hearing this, Liu Haizhong's face darkened and he said, "What do you know, old woman?" Liu Haizhong couldn't listen to anything now and just wanted to satisfy his desire to be an official.

It was still dark in September. When Liu Haizhong arrived at the front yard of Yan's house, he saw Yan Fugui's family eating. The family had steamed corn bread and steamed wild vegetable steamed buns made from substitute food. Liu Haizhong shook his head and said, "Old Yan, why are you eating substitute food?"

Yan Fugui asked Liu Haizhong to sit down and said with a wry smile: "If we don't eat some substitute foods, our family won't be able to survive. Do you think I'm your monthly salary of more than 80 yuan?"

Liu Haizhong felt a little proud when he heard this. Being a Level 7 worker was his pride. He puffed out his belly and said, "Old Yan, your family has two regular workers. It shouldn't have come to this, right?"

Yan Fugui smiled bitterly and said, "Old Liu, my family of seven is still old enough to eat. The rations at home are not enough to eat, so we can only buy bargain food from Pigeon Market. You also know the price of bargain food now. Do you think we can avoid eating substitute food given our family's conditions? Besides, it's not that easy to buy food in Pigeon Market now. We have to keep some food for emergencies."

Liu Haizhong knew what was going on outside. He spent all his monthly salary on food, which was barely enough to feed and clothe himself. Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu had never had enough to eat, so he sighed and said, "Yes, it's too difficult now. Even Guangtian and Guangfu in my family can't have enough to eat."

There was silence in the room for a while, and after a while Yan Fugui asked, "Old Liu, what are you doing here this time?"

Liu Haizhong then remembered the serious matter and said with a smile: "It's like this, our hospital hasn't held a meeting for a long time, and I want to hold a meeting to talk about the Lin family."

Yan Fugui was startled when he heard this and wondered why the Lin family was involved. He asked, "What happened to the Lin family?"

Liu Haizhong repeated what Jia Zhang said and said, "The Lin family is too outrageous. They don't care about the feelings of the neighbors in the courtyard at all."

Yan Fugui shook his head secretly when he heard this. He thought that if others eat well, that's their ability. If you have the ability, you can eat too. But he would not say this. He smiled and said, "You are the second uncle, you have the final say."

After Liu Haizhong left, he asked Liu Guangtian to notify everyone to attend a meeting.

Li Tong’s house in the front yard.

Although the rations for the two sisters were not enough to eat, Li Tong's parents left her a lot of money. So in order to prevent her younger sisters from starving, Li Tong bought food as long as it was available without asking the price. As a result, she saved a lot of food, and the two sisters would not starve for the time being.
