Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 698 Reaping the consequences
When he returned to the compound, he told his father, Crazy Li, about this. Crazy Li found two people, but both of them said they didn't know the child who reported the news. Crazy Li curled his lips and asked, "Do you believe it?"

Li Hongjun looked at his father's expression and said, "Why not believe this? There were so many children that day, who knew who?"

Crazy Li said, "How could he have bumped into you guys if he didn't know you? How could they have seen that kid being surrounded and not run away if they didn't know you? How could they have left together at the end if they didn't know you? Come on, you idiot, come with me to report to the chief."

After hearing what his father said, Li Hongjun's face turned red. He felt that he had been fooled by the two kids. He followed his father to find the leader dejectedly.

When the father and son of the Li family arrived at the chief's house, the chief was drinking tea in the living room and Staff Officer Wang was sitting on the side. The two were chatting. Crazy Li came in, saluted, and sat directly opposite the Glasses Wang, talking about what happened to his son Li Hongjun today.

The chief and the glasses king laughed after hearing this. The chief said, "You don't have to look for him anymore. Li Wenbo has already called me. We also know the boy. He doesn't want us to disturb him. He is still young and in elementary school."

"Oh, then I am even more interested in this guy. I must find time to meet him." said Crazy Li.

The glasses king took off his glasses, wiped them with the handkerchief in his pocket, put them on again, and said, "Crazy Li, listen to the commander. This kid has a complicated background, so let's not make trouble."

"What do you mean by making trouble? I just want to see such a smart child." Crazy Li was unhappy.

The chief said, "Crazy Li, you really can't go. To tell you the truth, that is the orphan of Wang Ming and Qian Fenfang. If you go, you will really cause trouble for the child. It's not peaceful here right now."

Crazy Li was stunned for a moment, then fell silent and never spoke again until he said goodbye and went home. Li Hongjun was very curious about what happened to his usually noisy father today.

Crazy Li returned home and sat in the living room without saying a word. When it was almost time for dinner, Crazy Li called his eldest son, Li Hongjun, and said, "Don't be a jerk, go join the army and go to the front line to train."

When Li Hongjun heard this, he was ecstatic. He had begged his father many times. He had been clamoring to join the army since he was sixteen, but Crazy Li looked down on him and said that he would just be cannon fodder. After that, he begged many times again, but his father still didn't agree. Was it that his father finally came to his senses this time, or... Li Hongjun suddenly thought that his father changed after hearing about the child's origin.

Li Hongjun asked: "Dad, is it because of the child's parents?"

Crazy Li raised his head and told the story of Wang Ming with tears in his eyes. He kept talking about how his children, one was only ten years old and the other was only four years old, but they lived independently and did not want to cause trouble to anyone. Li Hongjun was so moved that tears filled his eyes.

After a long time, Li Hongjun stood up and said, "Dad, they say that a general's son is a tiger. Don't worry, I will never embarrass you. If I slack off, you can beat me with a belt when I get back."

Crazy Li waved his hands and said, "That child is only ten years old, but he is already a demon registered by the higher-ups. This year, a ten-year-old child killed nine spies. Although his methods are a bit unacceptable, this is already a miracle. He is a demon recognized by the higher-ups. I just don't want my children to fall too far behind. Go, go to the army and make achievements."

Li Hongjun was shocked when he heard this, and he made up his mind to see the child before leaving no matter what.

Not long after Li Hongjun left Shichahai, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu ran to Wang Zhan's door and knocked. Wang Zhan opened the door and saw that it was the two brothers. He warmly invited them in. Wang Li ran over with a smile and shouted, "Brother Xiao Si, Brother Xiao Wu, you are here. I have a picture book here. Let me show you."

Xiao Wu smiled and agreed, "Okay!" Xiao Si went up and slapped him on the head, saying, "I have something important to do."

Xiao Wu finally reacted, and Xiao Si told Wang Zhan what happened in Shichahai. Wang Zhan thought that this was going to be exposed, so he thought about it and said to them, "You two stay at home and look after my sister. I'm going out for a while. Nothing much. I'll be back soon. By the way, lock the door when I leave."

Wang Zhan went to the Military Control Commission as soon as he got out of the door, found Sister Wang, and said he wanted to borrow her phone. Sister Wang readily agreed and took him to the office. Wang Zhan called Uncle Li and explained the whole story. Finally, he wanted Uncle Li to tell the people in the army not to find him, as this would cause a lot of trouble.

Uncle Li praised Wang Zhan first, and then said that he didn't need to worry about it, he would handle it. Wang Zhan was relieved at this time, and hurriedly thanked him, then hung up the phone and went home. When he got home, Xiao Si, Xiao Wu and Wang Li were reading comic books in the backyard. Wang Zhan asked them if they wanted to have dinner together, but they said they didn't want to eat here. After playing for a while, they went home.

Boss Jin had been searching for more than a month but hadn't seen even the shadow of the child. He became a little anxious because the three things were not his, but belonged to someone he couldn't afford to offend. After thinking it over again and again, Boss Jin took Zhang Pi Zi to a house in Liuhai Hutong.

I knocked on the door gently, and it opened soon. An old man with a fair face and no beard asked in a shrill voice, "Who are you looking for?"

"Excuse me, I'm looking for Master Wu. Just say that Xiao Jin from the front door is here to report something important. Thank you for your help." Boss Jin said respectfully.

"Wait." The old man closed the door. Boss Jin and Zhang Pi stood at the door, not daring to look around. They just stood there.

After a while, the door opened and the old man said, "Master Wu said you are welcome."

Boss Jin's heart skipped a beat. This invitation seemed to be a formality. It was going to be a difficult day today.

Boss Jin walked in with Zhang Pi, walked around the screen wall with two cranes and auspicious clouds, and entered the front yard. The old man led the two into the reception room on the left side of the front yard. There was a woman standing on one side of the hall, and the two did not dare to sit. The old man said, "Wait."

After waiting for nearly half an hour, a ruddy-faced fat man walked in with the old man. After entering the house, he sat down in the middle. The standing woman immediately brought a teacup to him. The fat man took a sip and put it on the table at one side, saying, "Xiao Jin, you don't come here for no reason. My house hasn't been open for a long time. What's the matter?"

Boss Jin hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fifth Master, the Yongzheng Three Treasures tea bowl you lent me, it, it's lost."

As soon as he said this, the bowl in Wu Ye's hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Wu Ye said, "Are you kidding me?"

Boss Jin said with a bitter face: "When we were working in Liulichang, we were attacked by someone. I didn't want that either."

Wu Ye saw that Boss Jin didn't look like he was joking, nor did he look like a traitor, so he asked, "Come on, tell me in detail, I want to hear it too."

Boss Jin said, "The person who did the work at that time was him. His name is Zhang Pizi, and he is an expert at making goose tails. Let him tell the story."

Zhang Pizi did not dare to be negligent and told the whole story in detail.

Seeing that he had finished speaking, Boss Jin added, "Sun Liuzhi from Changdian was also killed by him. We have dispersed all our people and have been looking for him for a month and a half, but we still can't find him. Fifth Master, what do you think about this matter?"

At this time, the woman next to him handed a new covered bowl to Wu Ye. Wu Ye drank the tea without saying anything for a while.

Wu Ye said, "Old Jin, you were also a man of the Republic of China, how can you be so ignorant? I don't care whether what you said is true or not, either return the things, or give me thirty gold bars, and then get out of the city with your disciples. You can do it yourself, Old Song, show me out."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the back door. The old man came over and said, "Let's go, Mr. Jin."

Boss Jin walked out of the yard with Zhang Pizi, with a sad face. He didn't even know how he walked back home.
