Siheyuan: Rebirth 52 years later, escaping from famine in Beijing

Secondly, as they were familiar with each other, if Captain Tong met Lou Zhenhua, he would definitely call him Mr. Dong instead of simply saying where the man was from.

So, has the car been delivered?"

......

"Wow! Thinking carefully has really improved my reasoning and argumentation skills. It's so enjoyable.

"

Then he and the captain came to the door.

There really was a car parked there.

A brand new Yongheng bicycle is parked nearby.

That was the driver Song Jie whom I met in front of the Red Star Grain and Oil Store that day.

At this time, he had one hand on the handlebars and the other holding a cigarette, enjoying the comfort of the smoke. When Lu Weimin appeared, he immediately threw the cigarette butt away and crushed it out with his foot, then walked forward to greet him with a smile on his face.

This attitude has changed a lot compared to when we first met.

Now Lu Weimin knows very well that Lou Zhenhua sent this driver to deliver the bicycles; such execution ability is admirable, and it also makes people understand why his business has reached its current scale.

After a brief greeting, Lu Weimin and driver Song became much closer.

Driver Song couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Brother Weimin, to this day I still don't understand how you could have judged that there was a problem with the tire and that it was about to crash just by passing by the car! How did you do that?"

"Really? Is Brother Wei Min so amazing? He can detect something wrong with the tire just by walking beside the car!" Captain Tong also looked very surprised.

"It's actually not that mysterious, it's just a matter of practice! As long as you focus and keep practicing, you can achieve it!" Lu Weimin did not feel proud of this achievement, but responded with ease.

Despite this, the two still believed that Lu Weimin was an exceptionally gifted and talented person.

Faced with the two people's disbelief, Lu Weimin could no longer explain.

After completing his mission, Song Jie left due to pending matters.

"Weimin, you're so young and you can own your own bicycle, you've really achieved something young!" Although they both own a motorcycle, Captain Tong got it when he was thirty years old. In comparison, Captain Tong was quite envious of Lu Weimin who owned a bicycle at the age of 18.

For this, Lu Weimin once again demonstrated his humility.

After parking the vehicle and on the way back to the repair workshop, curious Captain Tong wanted to inquire about why Chairman Lou gave the bicycle to Lu Weimin.

However, Lu Weimin did not want outsiders to reveal too many details, so he had to make up a reason to cover it up.

The time to get off work has finally arrived.

So, Lu Weimin rode his bicycle out of the machine repair shop and headed to No. 101 Middle School to pick up Xiaohan after school:

"I think Xiaohan will be very happy to see me!"

As the riding pace gradually increased, I attracted many envious glances along the way.

...*

When we arrived at the gate of No. 101 Middle School, the gate was already open and students were pouring out in an orderly manner. It was obvious that the school life was over.

"I wonder if Xiaohan has appeared yet?"

Lu Weimin parked his bicycle and looked towards the school gate.

Lu Weimin's youthful appearance, tall stature, and brand new Yongheng brand bicycle made him particularly eye-catching in front of the school gate, attracting many students' curious eyes to focus on him:

"This big brother is so handsome!"

"Oh my god! You have a bicycle at this age! I'm so jealous! Even my parents don't have a bicycle!"

"Who is he waiting for?"

"I guess he's here to pick up his younger siblings!"

"It must be extremely happy and blessed to be his younger brother or sister!"

When the school gate opened, many teachers came out one after another. Some of them did not yet own a bicycle, and their eyes involuntarily revealed a kind of desire and envy.

Cheng Zhihan was holding a book in her arms, chatting and laughing with two girls, and slowly walked out of the campus.

Lu Weimin recognized it at a glance:

Among the crowd, Xiaohan stands out.

She has a beautiful face and a tall figure, especially a pair of straight long legs, which makes her stand out among others.

Perhaps it was because of this that Li Jing took a fancy to her and wanted to invite her to participate in the selection of the art team.

Lu Weimin shouted and gestured:

"Xiao Han! Come here! Xiao Han is here!"

The moment she saw Lu Weimin, Cheng Zhihan was quite surprised. She told her friends beside her, "My brother is here to take me home. I'm leaving now!"

"Wow! Your brother is so handsome! But there is a clear difference in their appearance!"

"Your brother's bike is so nice! You are so lucky to have a bike to pick you up!"

The envy in their eyes became more and more obvious as Cheng Zhihan walked towards her brother.

Although he wanted to get to know Xiaohan's brother, he was unable to go with him due to shyness.

Cheng Zhihan walked quickly towards Lu Weimin.

After adjusting the front of the car, Lu Weimin said:

"I'll come pick you up right after get off work.

Fortunately, you are still in school. Get in the car! Let's go shopping together!"

"Brother Weimin, I didn't expect you to come and wait for me after school! I'm so happy! By the way, when did you buy this bicycle?"

When getting on the back seat, Cheng Zhihan naturally put her arms around Lu Weimin's waist.

He said with a smile on his face:

“I found a part-time job at another company and the bike was provided by the company.

Now I not only get double salary every month but also have a car to ride.

Traveling has become more convenient! ”

However, Cheng Zhihan's expression was not as happy as Lu Weimin thought, but she said worriedly:

"Brother Weimin, aren't you tired of having two jobs? It's all because I'm unable to share the heavy responsibility.

Besides, I still have to pay for school, which forces you to work twice as hard!"

Seeing this, Lu Wei realized that Xiao Han had a misunderstanding and thought that he was doing a part-time job to support his studies.

"Silly girl, why do you only think about our brother Wei Min? Don't worry, this job is not tiring at all.

"

Lu Weimin held the car with one hand, looked back and touched Zhihan's head lovingly.

In this regard, Cheng Zhihan said with great satisfaction:

"That's great! Brother Weimin, I really don't want to see you exhausted.

For our family, it’s enough to make ends meet.

"

"As long as you focus on school, things at home will definitely get better!"

"Uh-huh!"

Then the two of them came to Dongdan Market.

"It's really convenient to have a bicycle. It only takes a short time to get to the market!"

After getting off the bus, Cheng Zhihan finally understood the significance of owning a bicycle.

Many people along the way had envy in their eyes.

"It turns out that now you can feel the benefits of a bicycle! Haha!"

Lu Weimin also agreed that his bicycle was indeed great.

In terms of both appearance and temperament, Lu Weimin and Cheng Zhihan are like a perfect match. Coupled with the high-quality new bicycles, they become the focus of everyone's attention on the street.

"Brother Weimin is here to buy groceries again today!"

"Hey! He rode a bicycle here this time.

It should be your parents’ bicycle, right? It’s really nice looking!”

"Wei Min, the girl following you is so pretty, could she be your sister?"

……

Lu Weimin is quite famous in the market. Many vendors know him and people keep greeting him.

After buying the vegetables, they left the market and were on their way back to the courtyard.

Cheng Zhihan was in a very good mood. She swung her legs gently as she walked. She turned her head to admire Lu Weimin's straight and firm figure, and said with shining eyes: "Brother Weimin, the uncles and aunts in the market like you very much. You have a great network of contacts!"

"That's for sure!" Lu Weimin smiled happily.

Finally, the two returned to the gate of the courtyard.

When Lu Weimin appeared in the courtyard on his bicycle, it caused a sensation!

Lu Weimin, who entered the courtyard on a bicycle, immediately attracted everyone's attention, and almost all the neighbors in the courtyard came out to watch.

In those days, you didn’t need any special certificates or coupons to buy a bicycle; as long as you had enough money, you could buy one.

However, a new bicycle cost about one hundred and fifty to two hundred dollars, which was a huge burden at the time and not every family could afford it.

Among the dozen or so families in a courtyard, only a few can afford such a bicycle.

For men at that time, as long as they had healthy limbs and a stable job, they didn't have to worry about not being able to find a wife.

If you own a house and a bicycle, and your appearance is above average and you don't have any physical disabilities, you can basically find a good partner easily.

Therefore, under this circumstance, owning a new bicycle will undoubtedly make people very proud and attract the envy of people around them. However, the origin of this bicycle must be legitimate. If it is discovered that the origin is questionable, it is likely to cause various problems.

Just like this, after getting rid of the neighbors who were watching him, Lu Weimin went home to cook dinner with his sister.

But the neighbors still gathered together to discuss this matter:

"How did Lu Weimin buy a bicycle? A brand new Forever bicycle costs nearly two hundred yuan. Where did he get so much money to buy it?"

Liu Haili, who loves to participate in such things, also hurriedly expressed his opinion: "Yes, I am also wondering about this.

How could he, who was said to be a refugee, have so much savings? How could he afford a bicycle when he had only been working for a short time? This was really bizarre.

"

At this time, the jealousy in his heart had already reached its peak, and Jia Zhangjia, with a distorted face and a fierce look in his eyes, came up:

“Could that kid’s bicycle have been obtained through illegal means?

I think Lu Weimin is most likely a spy who disguised himself as a refugee and sneaked into Beijing to cause trouble!

That's why he can live lavishly and have enough money to buy a new bike, these enemies are the ones who enjoy a comfortable life the most.

Otherwise, they would not have given up the interests and power that originally belonged to the people!"

"That's true! I feel the same way! I think Lu Weimin is definitely not a good man! When they first arrived, they cooked a big chicken for themselves, and my wife came to them to ask for chicken soup to replenish her energy to feed our baby, but he drove her away with harsh words!"

Jia Dongwu always felt that he lost the house that originally belonged to him because of Lu Weimin's arrival, and he was full of hatred for this man.

And this time, how could I let go of the opportunity that the other party had committed a crime?

Obviously, both mother and son hoped to completely defeat this man named Lu Weimin through this bicycle incident of unclear origin, send him to prison or even sentence him to **, so that the house in the courtyard would be theirs.

Yi Zhonghai felt that the discussion among the neighbors seemed to be heated enough, so he spoke up: "There is indeed a problem with this bicycle, and we must investigate it thoroughly to prevent our community from being implicated.

"

Everyone agreed and said, "Boss Yi is right!"

Yan Bugui saw that something was not right and was worried that Lu Weimin would be seen as a suspicious person, and he became anxious.

On the one hand, he had a good impression of Lu Weimin, and on the other hand, he relied on the opportunity to borrow "Selected Works of Mao" from him to gain some benefits, so he quickly responded:

"I don't think Lu Weimin is a bad guy. If he is regarded as an enemy spy, it is a serious accusation. We must get to the bottom of it and not let him suffer injustice!"

A neighbor nearby suggested, "That's right! We should investigate thoroughly.

Brother Yi, Brother Liu, Brother Yan, we have extremely high prestige in our community, so please go and find out the situation in person.

"

But this suggestion was immediately stopped by Jia Zhang, "Don't go! Don't alert the enemy.

If the child is really suspected and faces the risk of imprisonment or even life safety, how could he confess voluntarily? "

Jia Dongxu also agreed: "Indeed, I also agree that we cannot contact him directly.

You should just go and ask him about the matter. What if you arouse his vigilance and he does something dangerous in a hurry?"

"In that case, it would not be appropriate to intervene and ask questions directly!" Liu Haishang seemed to be hesitant.

While thinking about how to take revenge and show her merit, Jia Zhang gritted her teeth and said:

"We will conduct a secret investigation and collect sufficient evidence, then report the situation to the Military Control Committee and request that he be brought to justice! This way, all residents of our community will be able to eliminate evil and do good, and achieve a meritorious service, bringing glory to all of us!"

Yi Zhonghai nodded in agreement with her opinion.

Liu Shanghai also expressed his support, “This makes sense.

"

Everyone decided, and Yi Zhonghai immediately invited Yan Bugui, Liu Shanghai and Jia Dongxu to his home for detailed discussion.

At this time, in the central courtyard.

It's dinner time and Lu Weimin and his sister are cooking dinner.

They made pork soup today, and the aroma spread throughout the entire neighborhood.

In the Jia family opposite,

Including Jia Zhangshi, Jia Dongxu, and Qin Huairu, they couldn't help smacking their lips and swallowing their saliva when they smelled the rich meat aroma coming from next door, and the young man Bangu even started to howl loudly, demanding to share the food.

Jia Zhang was extremely angry and gnashed her teeth: "The damn poor devil has started eating meat again. He lives a comfortable life every day. Where does all the meat come from? If it wasn't good stuff bought with enemy assets, how could there be such a surplus? This guy is most likely an enemy spy!"

Even his wife Qin Huairu complained repeatedly.

“In my opinion, this person is indeed a serious hostile suspect.

Otherwise, how could he be so cold and cruel?

Since I became pregnant and gave birth to our lovely Bangu, I have never returned empty-handed when asking for food from the neighbors.

The best neighbor, like that silly brother Zhu, would always give me one of his double-steamed bread whenever he had one.

Unlike this Lu Weimin, who was like a miser and showed no mercy, and actually drove me out of the door directly;

His kind of behavior is incompatible with the kind-hearted, friendly, loving and helpful people like us. Only those who hate our people and our national interests in their hearts, and turn a blind eye to the plight of our hungry children, can do such a cruel thing! "

Hearing these words, Jia Dongxu nodded repeatedly, thinking that the views of the mother and daughter-in-law were reasonable:

"That makes sense! But what should we do now? Can we just wait and see how Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and the others investigate?"

Jia Zhang, who was swallowing steamed bread, slammed the wooden table fiercely and said firmly: "No! This good opportunity to be rewarded should not be given to others. We should be the first to expose this Lu Weimin.

"

Such a great achievement will belong to us, and our Jia family will become heroes who capture spies and be rewarded and praised for it.
