The beginning of the silly uncle, the true love is full of the courtyard

He Pingan left Minister Luo's office and returned to the Personnel Department to find Section Chief Zhao. Before He Pingan could say anything, Section Chief Zhao said

"Deputy Director He, Minister Luo has just explained. This is your work certificate. Please keep it. You were a regiment commander before you retired. After you were demobilized, you were demoted to a division-level position. However, Minister Luo has just informed you that you are a division-level position but enjoy deputy-department-level treatment. As for your household registration, you can go directly to the street office to handle it. As for housing, you can wait until you take office tomorrow and the Dongcheng Public Security Bureau will arrange it for you, or you can find it yourself."

"Thank you, Chief Zhao, for your trouble." He Ping'an thanked him politely.

Thinking of He Yuzhu and his sister who were still outside, He Ping'an said goodbye after chatting with Section Chief Zhao for a few words.

When He Pingan left the Ministry of Public Security and looked at the bored brother and sister,

"Are you anxious?"

"No, I'm just a little bored. Have you finished everything?" He Yuzhu continued

"Well, he's the deputy director of the Dongcheng branch, the director of the security department of the steel rolling mill, he's at the director level, and he enjoys the treatment of a deputy bureau level official." He Ping'an said calmly.

He Yuzhu was a little confused after hearing this. He didn't know what a director or deputy director was, but he had worked in a steel mill for some time and knew the security director of the steel mill.

"Uncle, you are too awesome. You don't know how powerful the security chief is. I can walk sideways from now on!"

"My power is not to show off, but to serve the people," He Pingan said to He Yuzhu, who didn't know the seriousness of the matter. He felt helpless: Don't you see that this is a place? He glanced at the Ministry of Public Security after saying this.

"Uncle, I'm just happy. This time I don't have to worry about being bullied." He Yuzhu saw He Ping'an looking at the Ministry of Public Security and realized that he was being reckless, so he quickly explained.

"You don't know, when I was fired from the steel mill, I almost fell to my knees at the looks on the faces of those people! No one cared about me."

He Pingan stopped talking after hearing this. Seeing that it was almost noon, he waved his hand.

"Come on, my uncle will treat you to a big dinner today, Fengze Garden!"

He Yushui, who had been somewhat listless at "Fengze Garden", immediately became energetic after hearing this.

"Yes, Fengze Garden." He Ping'an didn't expect that Yu Shui also had the potential to be a foodie. Looking at He Yu Shui's appearance, he thought with some amusement.

By the time the three of them came out of Fengze Garden, it was already afternoon. Because they were a little full from lunch, they were not in a hurry and walked slowly towards the street office.

When they arrived at the street office, they remembered the street office's attitude towards the He brothers and sisters, and wanted to see what was going on. So they took them directly into the street office without letting them wait outside.

Although the subdistrict office has a lot of things to do, it is of a low level and is just an ordinary courtyard. Although He Ping'an didn't ask anyone for directions, he didn't spend much effort to find Director Wang's office. This time, He Ping'an didn't knock on the door like he did the last two times, but pushed the door open and went in.

Director Wang was a little unhappy when she saw He Ping'an and the other two people who pushed the door open. However, although she didn't know He Ping'an, she knew He Yuzhu and his sister. Thinking about what she had done, and looking at He Ping'an holding He Yushui, she knew that the three people had bad intentions. However, they were also people who had participated in the revolution for many years. Although she felt a little uneasy, she didn't look flustered. Then she smiled and greeted them.

"Zhu Zi, why did you bring your sister here today? What's the matter? Don't worry, you are military dependents, and the neighborhood office will definitely help you if you have any problems."

"Director Wang, this is my uncle. We came here with him today." He Yuzhu listened to He Ping'an's analysis last night and knew that the street office was being unkind to his brother and sister. He didn't be too polite, but just introduced He Ping'an in a somewhat distant manner.

Director Wang could naturally sense He Yuzhu's alienation and knew that what he had done had been discovered. However, he thought that what he had done was not too wrong and it was at most negligence. After all, he was an old revolutionary and his lover also held a high position. Even if the young man in front of him had been a soldier for five years, what ability could he have? The worst that could happen was an apology. Thinking of this, Director Wang cooled his enthusiasm, but kept smiling.

"This must be Comrade He Ping'an. Thank you for your contribution to the country. Without the blood and sacrifice of young people like you, our country would not be so stable."

He Pingan frowned. Although Director Wang seemed enthusiastic and polite, his condescending attitude was annoying. He no longer wanted to deal with it and said directly:

"Yes, for the safety of the country and the people, our comrades on the front line have indeed made great sacrifices. Fortunately, the country has given us a high degree of recognition and has taken good care of our families, allowing us to fight without worries and without shedding blood and tears."

Listening to He Ping'an's exaggerated words, Director Wang suddenly felt that the young man in front of him was a bit difficult to deal with. He knew that if He Ping'an continued to talk, what he did to the He brothers and sisters would be undermining national policies. You have to know that most of the cadres in the country are retired from the army. If they knew about my affairs, I'm afraid there would be no good ending. Thinking of this, Director Wang changed the subject and said

"Young comrade, you have a very high level of ideological awareness. I wonder what you are here for this time?"

He Pingan was not angry when he saw this, but instead said what Director Wang said.

"It's nothing serious. I just changed my job and went through the process of re-registering my household registration. I also wanted to see if there were any houses available on the street. After all, I'm old enough to get married."

"The household registration issue is easy to handle, but the housing issue is not. Comrade Xiao He, you may not know that housing has been in short supply since our People's Liberation Army entered the city. Later, as the country developed industry, a large number of peasant comrades came to the city to work. Although they should be treated preferentially because they did not fight for the country like Comrade Xiao He, we really don't have any extra houses." Director Wang originally thought that He Ping'an was only looking for trouble with him because of the matter of He Yuzhu's brother and sister, but he didn't expect that He Ping'an had already retired and returned home. He was delighted and decided to use the house issue to make the three members of the He family compromise.

"Really? That's such a pity!" He Pingan sneered at Director Wang.

"There's no other way. Besides, as far as I know, the He family has two main rooms, and one secondary room should be enough for the three of you to live in." Director Wang was not angry when he saw He Ping'an's look.

"My house is indeed big enough for us to live in, but it is under my eldest brother's name and will belong to my nephew in the future. Moreover, our household registration has been separated. I meet the conditions for separate housing. Can Director Wang make me live in my nephew's house for the rest of my life?" He Pingan retorted

"Alas, there is no other way. Even if there are houses, they should be given to people with jobs first. Comrade Xiao He, can you carry forward the revolutionary spirit and overcome it?" Director Wang said in an official tone.

Seeing this, He Pingan did not pretend to move and directly approached him.

"Unfortunately, I was assigned a job. Director Wang, please take a closer look at my materials. My work unit is listed on them."

Director Wang listened to He Ping'an's words and turned his eyes to the materials He Ping'an had just handed to him. When he saw He Ping'an's work unit and position, his face changed drastically. He stood up hurriedly and walked to He Ping'an.

"Hello, boss, I apologize for offending you just now." He stretched out his hands and prepared to shake hands.

He Ping'an looked at the hands that were extended to her and ignored them, just looking at her coldly.

Director Wang withdrew his hands awkwardly and said

"Leader, there are still hundreds of empty houses on our street, but they are all ordinary courtyard houses, basically large mixed-living compound houses. None of them meet your requirements. Besides, you are the deputy director of the Dongcheng Branch, so you should have your own cadre building in the branch. What do you think?"

He Ping'an knew this before he came, but thinking of the current building and his own secrets, he preferred some independent courtyard houses.

"Is there no independent courtyard? A smaller one will do, or one with only one entrance will do." He Pingan frowned and asked

"Sir, there really isn't one. But if you want to live in a courtyard house, you can build one yourself. It just so happens that the courtyard you live in now was previously the Prince's Mansion. There is a cross-courtyard in the middle courtyard that is over 600 square meters. It has been abandoned due to years of disrepair. You can spend your own money to rebuild it, and it will be your own private house after it is completed."

He Pingan thought about it and nodded in agreement, then changed the subject

"Tell me, is it Yi Zhonghai or the old lady in the backyard?"

"Leader?" Director Wang was still trying to get away with it.

"You said it was a personal grudge. I will investigate it myself after I take office tomorrow. It's a public matter, and I can only handle it in a public manner. I heard that you have a Henan accent, so you must have participated in the revolution during the 42 disaster. You are also an old revolutionary. I don't want to be too harsh. Even a husband who is a director can't save you. You'd better take care of yourself." After saying this, He Ping'an stopped paying attention to Director Wang.

As soon as Director Wang heard this, he knew that this young and somewhat overbearing leader in front of him was well prepared and had even found out about his lover. Since he knew that his lover was the director and dared to speak like this, he must have someone to rely on. Thinking of the deputy department-level treatment in the file, he sighed secretly: I really shouldn't have taken that money, and now I can only be slaughtered by others.

"I confessed to the deputy director that it was Yi Zhonghai who gave me a sum of money after He Daqing left so that I could turn a blind eye to the He brothers and sisters' affairs. The deaf old lady in the backyard should also know about this." Director Wang said resignedly.

"The deaf old lady has some connections behind her, probably at the department or bureau level. After He Daqing left, one day Yi Zhonghai came to me without telling the deaf old lady and asked me to appoint Yi Zhonghai as the eldest uncle. I didn't agree, and then I received a call from a director of the Ministry of Industry, asking me to take better care of them. I told the old lady about the He brothers and sisters, but he pretended to be deaf and dumb at the time, so I just went with the flow." Since he had to explain, he didn't hide anything anymore and Director Wang told him everything at once.

"I will host a dinner at the Siheyuan this Sunday at noon, and deal with the He family's problem at the same time. You come as a witness. Remember to bring money. I don't care how much Yi Zhonghai gives you. I want double it, just as a contribution to building my house. As for whether you have the ability to make Yi Zhonghai shut up, I don't care." After He Ping'an finished speaking, he turned and left without paying attention to Director Wang who looked grateful.

After leaving the neighborhood office, He Pingan said angrily, "My uncle just let him go like this?"

"Not letting go? What else can we do?" He Pingan asked back

"Of course, let her go to jail."

"Go to jail? Ha!" He Ping'an snorted disdainfully, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Director Wang said she took the money herself. We don't have any evidence. Otherwise, I would let her go!" Looking at He Yuzhu who didn't know the situation, "It seems that we need to speed up the education of Zhuzi. Alas, big brother, you did a good thing." He Ping'an didn't wait for He Yuzhu to ask anything else and explained in detail.

"Although I have no evidence to prove that Director Wang accepted bribes, it is a fact that she ignored you. If I were just a small soldier, you wouldn't have been hurt too much. Even if there was a fuss, she would just need to apologize to us and the organization. Maybe she can even get in touch with the deaf old lady because of this incident."

"But I'm not an ordinary soldier. I'm even at the same level as the man in his family. If this matter gets out of hand, it can't be resolved peacefully. After all, as the head of the regiment, his family members can be treated unfairly, so what about other ordinary people? No matter what the result is, she will not have a good ending. It will also implicate her husband, the director, and the deaf old lady's backers will also cut ties with her. What's more, I'm the deputy director of the Dongcheng Branch. It's not too difficult to find loopholes in his family and nail them to death. Even if I can't nail them to death, she can't stand being investigated every day. So she confessed after I promised to give her a chance." Since I was going to teach He Yuzhu a lesson, I took this opportunity to teach him a lesson. Thinking of this, He Pingan asked

"Zhu Zi, let me ask you, why did she do this?"

"Why? Didn't she say it was for money?" He Yuzhu asked in confusion.

"Both of her family members are cadres. One is a section chief and the other is a director. Do they need money?"

"Why did they do that?"

"Think for yourself, your brain is for use, not for decoration," He Pingan said unhappily.

He Yuzhu recalled the conversation between his uncle and Director Wang and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

"For the sake of the relationship behind the deaf old lady, she told the deaf old lady this just to get in touch with the person behind the deaf old lady."

He Ping'an listened to He Yuzhu's words and felt relieved that he was not too stupid.

"Zhu Zi, remember that there is no love without reason in this world, and there will be no hatred without reason. There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Before encountering something, think about why the person did this, and then think of a way to deal with it." Seeing He Yuzhu nodded to show that he understood, He Pingan asked again

"Then tell me, why did Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady do this?"

"Is he unhappy with our He family and taking revenge while you and my dad are not at home?" He Yuzhu thought for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, so he asked uncertainly.

"I made you unhappy and asked you to take revenge." He Ping'an was originally pleased with He Yuzhu's growth, but suddenly heard He Yuzhu say this. He was so angry that he hugged He Yushui with one hand and slapped He Yuzhu on the forehead with his free hand.

"Uncle, don't hit me. I'm not smart to begin with, and I'll become even dumber if you hit me." He Yuzhu said as he dodged.

"Zhu Zi, you have to remember that all people in the world are seeking profit. If a person suddenly does something illegal, it only proves that he can get what he wants through illegal activities. Similarly, the more a person lacks something, the more he wants it. Now tell me why they do this?"

"For retirement!" He Yuzhu said, thinking of the situation of the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai.

"But don't they have Jia Dongxu? And if they want to take care of me in my old age, shouldn't they be nicer to me?" He Yuzhu looked at He Pingan in confusion, hoping he would explain.

He Pingan thought for a moment and said, "Although the actions of Deaf and Yi are shameful, you should learn from their ideas. Although Yi Zhonghai wants Jia Dongxu to take care of him in his old age, even biological fathers and sons cannot be kind to each other, let alone master and apprentice."

"So he felt that Jia Dongxu was not safe alone, and something happened in my family, so Yi Zhonghai saw the opportunity and targeted me! Shouldn't he be nicer to me?" He Yuzhu said after listening to He Ping'an's analysis.

"Good, you all answered quickly. As for why they targeted you, think about why Yi Zhonghai chose Jia Dongxu as the pensioner?" He Pingan continued to ask.

"Hehe! Uncle, just tell me directly! It's not easy for me to think of this, and the others are indeed?" He Yuzhu said naively.

This time He Pingan did not take action again but patiently explained

"Why do people need to take care of their parents? Because as a person ages, his body deteriorates and he can't work, so he needs to take care of his parents. But as I said just now, not all biological children can take care of their parents, let alone the master and apprentice. Yi Zhonghai also understands this, so his desire for control becomes very strong. And no one likes to be controlled, especially when they are capable. It just so happens that since the death of the old Jia, the Jia family has been left with orphans and widows. If they want to survive, they must have someone to rely on. Yi Zhonghai chose Jia Dongxu because of this. Another point is that if you are grateful for a good deed, you will resent it. What if Yi Zhonghai meets a heartless person who takes Yi Zhonghai's efforts for granted, and when Yi Zhonghai's efforts are less, he will probably resent him. In that case, should he find a caregiver for his parents or a master?"

"So he did these things to me in order to force me into a desperate situation and then control me. What about my job?" After hearing He Ping'an's analysis, He Yuzhu also understood why Yi Zhonghai wanted to harm him, and then he remembered his job in the steel mill.

"You're not that stupid! Don't worry, wait for me to take over the security department, and I will naturally seek justice." He Ping'an said domineeringly.

"Uncle, now that we have dealt with Director Wang, are we going to deal with Yi Zhonghai?" He Yuzhu asked excitedly.

"Wait a minute. I'm going to Baoding tomorrow to see my brother and ask him why he left without seeing you. What about you? Are you going?" He Pingan returned.

"Go!" He Yushui heard that she was going to find her father and quickly agreed. He Yuzhu looked at her sister and I had to agree.
