After Liu Haizhong went home and read the letter last night, he didn't sleep much all night.

Today, he got up early in the morning and rushed to the street office to find out where Liu Guangqi had gone to provide support.

Although the letter said that he would write back after arriving at the destination, he could not wait even a moment.

Because of this, he missed the big show in front of Yan's house. Of course, he probably wasn't in the mood to get involved.

When Liu Haizhong realized last night that things were irreversible, he had no choice but to accept the reality.

But he did not give up on Guangqi, his elderly caregiver, and fantasized that he would be able to come back in two years and bring honor to the family.

As for shifting the target to Guangfu or Guangtian and training a new one, Liu Haizhong had no idea at all.

Deep down in his heart, he had already determined that his two younger sons were useless and had to be whipped for everything they did.

Can we still expect them to have a change of heart and take the initiative to care about us when we are old?

Liu Haizhong came all the way to the street office and was about to walk in, but was stopped by the doorman, Uncle Qin, who was practicing boxing.

"Hey...what are you doing? It's not even time to go to work yet. Why are you barging around? What? Do you want to practice with me?"

Liu Haizhong came back to his senses and saw that Uncle Qin was already rolling up his sleeves, so he quickly explained:

"Uh... that... I came here to ask something. Isn't there always someone on duty at the street office?"

Uncle Qin said unhappily, "He's on night duty, it's time to hand over his shift, and he's just about to go home and sleep.

If it's not a very urgent matter, I suggest you wait until everyone gets to work before talking about it, otherwise I will definitely not be happy with you."

Liu Haizhong could only smile bitterly and nodded: "Then I will wait a little longer..."

Based on his understanding of "leaders", the street office that directly governs the residents has a filter in its mind, and ordinary staff dare not offend them easily.

Uncle Qin was a little curious and asked, "You look familiar. Why are you in such a hurry to come to the street office? What happened at home?"

Liu Haizhong replied vaguely: "My children have gone to support the Third Front construction. I came to ask something."

Uncle Qin gave a thumbs up and praised: "Wow! Comrade, you have taught a good kid. He will be a hardworking fellow in the West."

He took out a stool from the guardhouse and said, "Sit down and wait. It will probably take a while."

Liu Haizhong took the stool with mixed feelings, forced a smile and said "thank you".

If he didn't know that the old man meant well and was genuinely praising him, he would have suspected that the words were a deliberate mockery.

Of course, after this little episode, Liu Haizhong's mood improved slightly.

No matter what, except for those guys in the hospital who know him inside and out, everyone who heard about it would give him a thumbs up. This is called awareness, this is called dedication!

Liu Haizhong waited in the guard room for more than twenty minutes, and finally a young clerk came to work.

He hurriedly followed and asked to check the information of so-and-so as soon as he opened his mouth, which made the clerk a little impatient.

I came to the office so early just to get some hot water and clean up, thinking I could show my ability, but someone came to delay things and showed no tact at all.

However, the clerk didn't say anything bad after all. You can't expect good service attitude in this day and age, but the work is basically done by them.

So after his slow and methodical investigation, Liu Haizhong finally found out where his eldest son was: a county in Mianyang, Sichuan Province.

Yes, the information says "a certain county". He asked in confusion:

"Hey... Leader, why is the address not clearly written? What does 'a certain county' mean? Can we find the person here? Or is there really such a county?"

The clerk took a closer look and became much more polite, explaining, "What this means is that the project we are supporting is confidential, and the subdistrict office does not have the authority to know the specific information.

Either you go ask the Planning Commission, or wait for your family to write back. They will definitely have a specific mailing address by then."

When Liu Haizhong heard this, he felt even more uneasy. It turned out to be confidential. There was no certainty about his return.

At the same time, he felt a little proud, affirming that there was nothing wrong with his education, which enabled him to raise an excellent eldest son, who participated in important national projects as soon as he graduated.

Tossing and turning in bed last night, Liu Haizhong reflected on whether his idea of ​​"a filial son is born under the stick" was wrong.

Liu Haizhong thought that if he wasn't too strict, maybe the second and third sons could be straightened out and they could get some insurance for their retirement.

I don’t know if Guangfu and Guangtian would tremble with fear after knowing this.

Of course, Liu Haizhong's self-righteous idea was a complete misunderstanding.

Liu Guangqi was able to join the confidentiality project right after graduation because of his status as a relative of Zhong family's son-in-law. He is considered a person with connections.

Liu Haizhong nodded. When he noticed one of the items, he showed an expression of disbelief, and with his hands shaking a little, he pointed at the information and asked:

"Why...why does it say married here? And it was registered in the last few days, but my Guangqi is not married!"

This surprise came so suddenly that he was very angry. He wondered how many things his eldest son had hidden from his family.

Marriage is such a big thing, but if I hadn’t come to the street office to check the information, I, the father, would have no idea about it at all.

The clerk looked surprised and asked strangely, "Why are you asking me whether your own child is married or not?

No, show me your ID, don't just blindly recognize relatives."

A farewell party was held at the street office for the personnel who supported the Third Front construction, and there was nothing confidential about the street office's information.

The clerk didn't think much about it before, but when he saw that the information was confidential and the other party asked such an ignorant question, he had to be alert.

In this age, everyone is a detective and all strange behaviors can be exposed.

Liu Haizhong was embarrassed when asked. He felt ashamed to say it out loud. Should he admit that his son ran away secretly? So he could only quickly explain:

“I… came here in a hurry and forgot to bring my ID.

I am Liu Haizhong from No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. Many people in the street office know me. We are all neighbors. Your Director Wang also knows me. "

The clerk nodded thoughtfully: "Hmm...I seem to have heard of this person. There is indeed such a person.

I have only been working at the subdistrict office for three months, so I am not sure. You should wait here until someone proves your identity before you can leave."

Liu Haizhong sat down depressed, his eyes a little vague. He was still thinking about Liu Guangqi's marriage and couldn't accept it for a while.

After waiting for other people to come to work and having their identities verified, he left in a daze and happened to meet Director Wang at the door.

After Director Wang learned the reason why Liu Haizhong came to the subdistrict office early in the morning, he looked at him strangely for a few times before praising him:

"Liu Haizhong, you are great. You have raised a good son who is highly conscious and capable.

Keep up the good work and manage Courtyard 95. There have been a lot of things going on in your court recently, and it's quite noisy."

If it were in the past, Liu Haizhong would have been so happy that he would have flown away after being praised like this.

I must be fantasizing that this is a hint to add more burden to myself and take over from Lao Yi's uncle.

But he was in no mood today, so he could only smile awkwardly and left with mixed feelings.
