Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

When He Yuzhu returned home, Li Xiuzhi asked him about the content of the meeting.

"Jia Zhang is missing, Qi Tianfang organized the people from the courtyard to look for her,"

He Yuzhu said to his wife while taking off his coat, and at the same time looked out the window at the noisy courtyard.

"Then why didn't you help look for it?" Li Xiuzhi reached out and took her coat and hung it on the hanger.

"I'm busy watching them, so how can I help them look for it? Besides, even if you go, Qin Huairu will treat your kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs. I might as well stay away from work," said He Yuzhu, and then led his wife back to the inner room.

"Yes, helping their family will definitely not bring good things, but where can Jia Zhang go? She is an old woman who usually wanders around the courtyard. I guess she can't even recognize all the roads around it."

"And if you don't go to the courtyard, there will be gossip," Li Xiuzhi was thinking about him. No one living in this courtyard can pry open the door on the roof - no one will recognize relatives, otherwise there will be gossip.

"Not only me, Xu Damao didn't go either so don't worry." He Yuzhu felt a little distressed when he saw Li Xiuzhi's worried look.

He knew that although Li Xiuzhi had a strong personality, she was soft-hearted, and she could not survive in this courtyard like this.

"Xiuzhi, you have been in this courtyard for quite some time, but you still haven't seen through their family. I won't help other people when they have problems, but I can't do this to the Jia family."

"If I had shown them a little kindness, the Jia family would have eaten me to pieces in this courtyard, not to mention that they blamed me for their son's death."

Li Xiuzhi saw that He Yuzhu's face became serious again when he talked about the Jia family, and she knew that she had been trying to be a good person and said the wrong thing.

"Okay, I shouldn't sympathize with them. If I really have no choice, I will just stay away from them in the future," Li Xiuzhi coaxed He Yuzhu to go to bed.

Early the next morning,

Gao Jianshe, who came to He Yuzhu's house for breakfast, said, "Master, I saw a lot of noise in the yard for a long time last night. They searched for half the night but couldn't find anyone."

Gao Jianshe knew that his master did not help to look for it yesterday, so he would definitely not know the latest news, so he came to act as a broadcaster early in the morning.

"I'd rather take care of your mistress than spend that time. There are so many people who can't find her. Can Jia Zhang fly into the sky or into the ground? And eat your meal and don't mind your own business. You stay up late at night to watch the fun. Let's see if you'll feel sleepy during the day."

Although He Yuzhu heard the latest news, he still gave his apprentice a lecture, feeling that as a grown man, he was becoming more and more like Liu Lan and had the potential to be a paparazzi.

"Don't call yourself my disciple anymore. You like to listen to gossip like an old woman all day long."

This immediately put an end to his anger. Looking at Gao Jianshe's listless look, Li Yue, who was drinking porridge, was amused and burst into laughter.

"Just eat your meal well. Your brother Jianshe is not someone you can laugh at," Li Xiuzhi tapped her sister's forehead with her finger, but then she laughed out loud herself.

Gao Jianshe looked at the three of them with helplessness on their faces.

After they finished eating while talking and chatting, the Li Xiuzhi sisters cleaned up the dishes at home, and He Yuzhu took his apprentices to work.

After lunch at the steel mill,

"Master, someone is looking for you outside," He Yuzhu was awakened by Ma Hua while taking a lunch break.

So I walked outside the kitchen and found a man and a woman wearing red armbands. "Master He, excuse me for disturbing you. We are from the street office."

"Hello, what can I do for you?" He Yuzhu nodded, and then saw Secretary Li coming up from behind, probably to support him.

"Where were you yesterday? Did you leave the steel mill?" the visitor looked at Secretary Li and asked He Yuzhu.

"No, I stayed at the steel mill all day yesterday and just left after get off work. You haven't told me what you want to see me about?" He Yuzhu asked the two people.

"Jia Zhang from your courtyard did not return home last night. You had a conflict with him the day before yesterday. Let's investigate."

He Yuzhu felt relieved when he heard that the two people were here to investigate Jia Zhang's family. After all, anyone who is found by a red armband will have to be on guard.

"She and I had a conflict, and later Director Wang came personally to take Jia Zhang away. I watched Jia Zhang's parade yesterday morning, and then I came to work, and then spent the rest of the day at the steel mill," He Yuzhu told the two people all the news he knew.

"Who can testify for you? You have been in everyone's sight the whole time," the man with red armbands asked loudly.

"What do you mean? Are you doubting Master He?" Secretary Li, who was helping to stand on the side, spoke.

"He didn't mean that, Secretary Li. He was just asking for information. Besides, we are not a police station. We are just investigating Jia Zhang's whereabouts. After all, she still needs to be reformed." The female comrade with red armbands stopped her companions from asking questions.

Seeing that Secretary Li was a little angry, they quickly apologized to him. They didn't dare to offend the personal secretary of the Chairman of the Revolutionary Committee. After all, his presence here represented Li Huaide's attitude.

"I worked at the steel rolling mill yesterday. My comrades in the cafeteria can testify for me. Don't blame me for the life or death of old lady Jia," He Yuzhu said impolitely when he saw that someone was backing him up.

After that, the two men asked a few more questions and called Gao Jianshe, who also lived in the courtyard, over. After asking them as usual, they still got no clues and left the steel mill.

"Director He, I'm sorry," Secretary Li consoled him.

"I don't feel wronged. Thank you Secretary Li for your help. However, Jia Zhang is missing. The courtyard can be quiet now," He Yuzhu said with emotion, waving his hand at him.

"This is the leadership's intention. I'm just afraid that these comrades from the subdistrict office will make things difficult for you." Secretary Li did not dare to take credit for bringing Li Huaide forward.

"Then Secretary Li, please thank Director Li on my behalf. Please rest assured, Leader, I will serve you conscientiously in the future," He Yuzhu flattered Li Huaide.

"How can you say that you are serving the leaders? You are serving the people and the broad masses of workers. If there is nothing else, I will leave first." Secretary Li corrected He Yuzhu's words and left the kitchen.

"Master, why is it that the street office is looking for Jia Zhang in such a high-profile manner even though she is missing?" Gao Jianshe was a little confused.

"She is the target of criticism recently discovered by the street. How can we not look for her if her achievements just disappeared? Otherwise, these are usually the work of the police station, so how can it be the turn of the street office to step in?" He Yuzhu explained the ins and outs to his apprentice.

"Looking for people one by one and having to think so much about it, isn't it tiring?" After saying that, he shook his head and went to the kitchen to continue chatting with a group of aunts.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh, "Jia Zhangshi, where on earth have you gone? It doesn't matter if you disappeared. I guess no one would remember you except Qin Huairu. But you caused trouble for everyone again. You disappeared and still can't let anyone live in peace."
