Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

Qin Huairu has been the daughter-in-law of the Jia family for so many years. She knows what Jia Zhang is thinking. Others don't know. Qin Huairu said, "Mom, there is no other way. I can't go for her, right?!"

Jia Zhang said, "She is unfamiliar with the place. If something happens to her, she will be helpless. No one will help her. If she hadn't moved her household registration here after Dongxu died, it would have been better."

Qin Huairu said, "How could I have known it would be like this?! If I had known, I would not have moved here. There is nothing I can do now to blame others. I will ask for leave tomorrow and then come back to go shopping with Xiaodang."

Jia Zhang sighed and said, "It seems that this is the only way now. Don't forget to send something to Bang Geng tomorrow."

It was eight o'clock in the evening. Officer Xie and Officer Song finished their tasks and returned to the subdistrict office. Because the entire subdistrict office was busy with the work of going to the countryside during this period. Basically, they had to work until nine o'clock in the evening. Officer Xie and Officer Song had just entered the gate of the subdistrict office when Officer Liu, who was about to go out for patrol, stopped them and said, "Xiao Xie, Xiao Song, you two are back just in time. Director Wang asked you to come back, go to her office immediately."

Secretary Song asked, "Brother Liu, do you know why Director Wang came to see us?!"

Secretary Liu hesitated for a moment and said, "You will know when you go there. I still have training to do, so I won't talk to you. You guys go over quickly!" After that, Secretary Liu hurried out of the gate of the street office.

Secretary Xie and Secretary Song looked at each other, and an ominous premonition came to their minds. But both of them had a glimmer of hope. So Secretary Xie and Secretary Song walked to the door of Wang Xia's office. Secretary Xie reached out and knocked on the door.

Wang Xia heard a knock on the door and called out, "Come in!"

Secretary Xie and Secretary Song pushed open the door and walked into the office. Secretary Xie asked, "Director Wang, I heard you were looking for us?!"

When Wang Xia saw Officer Xie and Officer Song, her face changed and she said, "Tell me! What exactly happened with Yan Jiefang?!"

I didn't expect that what I feared would come true. Officer Xie and Officer Song looked at each other. Officer Song gritted his teeth and asked, "Director Wang, what happened to Yan Jiefang? His notice to go to the countryside was just issued today."

Wang Xia now understood that this matter was closely related to Secretary Song. Wang Xia looked at Secretary Song with an angry look and said, "Zuojiazhuang has reported the matter to the Youth Educated Office. The people have also been withdrawn to the Youth Educated Office for redistribution. Do you want me to make it clearer?!"

Secretary Song did not expect things to turn out like this. Secretary Song hurriedly said, "Director Wang, my relatives also asked me for help. I was embarrassed to refuse, so I did something stupid. Please spare me!"

Wang Xia said, "This incident has had a very bad impact. Because of this incident, the district called us this afternoon and criticized us by name. From now on, you are suspended. As for how to deal with you, just wait for notification! You can go home now."

Secretary Song knew that he could not escape the punishment this time, so he did not argue any further and obediently left Wang Xia's office.

After Officer Song left, Wang Xia looked at Officer Xie, then took out a new notice from the drawer and said, "Thank you for your trouble. Go to Courtyard 95 again and give this notice to Yan Jiefang. Also, take back the previous notice."

"Yes!" Secretary Xie responded, took the new notice and left. After leaving Wang Xia's office, Secretary Xie turned around and walked out of the street office directly because he was afraid that the night would be long and he would have more trouble. More than ten minutes later, Secretary Xie arrived at the gate of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. Secretary Xie was about to enter the yard when he saw Yan Bugui preparing to close the gate. Secretary Xie shouted, "Old Yan! Wait a minute!"

Yan Bugui heard the call, looked up at Secretary Xie, and asked, "Secretary Xie, what are you doing here at this time?!"

Secretary Xie replied, "Old Yan, I went back and checked and found that the notices were mixed up. This is the notice for your Yan Jiefang. Give me that notice. I will deliver it to someone tomorrow morning." After saying that, Secretary Xie handed the notice in his hand to Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui took the notice and read the contents under the light of the street lamp. After confirming that there was no problem, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry to bother you to come here for this matter. I'll get the notice for you right away." After that, Yan Bugui turned and went into the courtyard. About three or four minutes later, Yan Bugui came to Secretary Xie with the notice of Yan Jiefang's trip to the Northeast and said, "Secretary Xie, here is the notice. Please keep it! Don't make any mistakes again!"

Secretary Xie took the notice with some embarrassment, looked at it, and said, "Don't worry! I won't make mistakes next time."

Watching Officer Xie leave, the smile on Yan Bugui's face disappeared. At this moment, Yan Bugui understood everything. Since the other party had corrected his mistake, there was no need to continue to pester him. After all, the county magistrate was better off managing it now.

Originally, Yan Bugui and his wife planned to take Yan Jiefang to Zuojiazhuang the next day to sort out the matter. Now that the new notice has arrived, there is no need to go. After all, it is easy to get things done with someone in the department store. The next morning, after breakfast, Yan Bugui and the third aunt followed Yu Li out. When they arrived at the department store, with the help of Yu Li, Yan Bugui and the third aunt spent almost an hour to buy everything on the list.

"Third Auntie, you and your wife bought a lot of things today?!"

"Look, my son Jie Kuang is going to the Northeast. It's the first time for the child to go on a long journey, so we should buy him some things." After saying that, the third aunt followed Yan Bugui into the gate of the courtyard. At this time, Qin Huairu came out of the courtyard with Xiao Dang. Qin Huairu took a look at the things Yan Bugui bought and said with a smile: "Third uncle, you bought a lot of things."

"I can't help it. Who made my Jie Kuang go to such a far place?! It is said that a mother worries about her son even when he is thousands of miles away. I am not much better as a father. I can only do my best to provide things." After saying that, Yan Bugui shouted towards Yan Jie Kuang's house: "Jie Kuang! Jie Kuang! Come out quickly!"

"I'm here!" Yan Jiekuang responded and ran out of the house. Seeing the things loaded on the bicycle, he asked in surprise, "Dad, why did you buy so many things?!"

Yan Bugui said, "Don't be fooled by the large amount of stuff. Actually, it's not that much. It's all what you need in the Northeast. Don't worry! When I came back just now, I met Xu Damao's wife. Doesn't she work at the post office?! I've already asked her. It will be sent this afternoon. You can basically pick it up when you get there. It will only take a day or two at most."

Yan Jiekuang thought about it and said, "Okay! I'll take the stuff to the post office and send it myself later."

“Okay!” Yan Bugui responded, and together with Yan Jiekuang, he moved the things into Yan Jiekuang’s house and asked, “Jiekuang, after you leave, what are we going to do with the house?!”

Yan Jiekuang replied, "Dad, I'm not leaving and won't come back! Besides, I'll have a home visit leave in the third year. I'll come back when the home visit leave comes." Then he asked, "Is there anyone who likes my house?!"

Yan Bugui said awkwardly: "Look, Xuehong is getting bigger day by day. Your sister-in-law is pregnant again. They can't live in their current house."

Yan Jiekuang said, "Dad, it's not that I'm stingy. This house has been lent out, how can I get it back?! It will prevent us from having unpleasant things in the future. Let's not talk about the house. I'll leave the bicycle key at home. It will be convenient to use at home."
