Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 231 Must live
Li Yancheng sat at Lao Xu's place until five o'clock in the afternoon before leaving.

I'm happy to have a week's holiday next week.

It was not until he was almost at the door of his house that he suddenly realized something was wrong. This was not a happy holiday at all, but he was clearly being tricked by his boss!
There are three days of wedding leave for marriage, and they will be given a few days to rest after returning from such a dangerous mission.

Now it is equivalent to putting together the two holidays he should have had, so when you calculate it this way, he has no marriage leave.

Hey, it’s true that the buyer is not as smart as the seller!

After figuring it out, Li Yancheng was so angry that he laughed.

What can we do now that things have come to this? Lao Xu has already signed the note.

Well, it’s fine if it’s just a few days less. Suffering a loss is a blessing, just don’t expect your blessing to be as vast as the East Sea.

This was the only way he could comfort himself.

I walked home while greeting the neighbors in the alley.

Almost everyone around him now knows that he is going to get married soon, and everyone, whether familiar or not, will say congratulations when they see him.

Everyone nearby knew who the woman was. Luo Min had lived here for a long time and worked in the street office, so many people knew her.

Of course, few people knew about her family situation. Even Deputy Director Duan of No. 21 Courtyard was not very clear about it.

At that time, she was still working in the street office and living in No. 20 Courtyard. Some people in the neighborhood had their eyes on her. Some wanted to introduce her to a partner, and some wanted to make her their daughter-in-law.

Although Luo Min is a girl who doesn't like to laugh or talk and always has a sullen face, she is pretty and has a job.

Although the salary and benefits of working in the street office cannot be compared with those of working in a factory, it is less stressful, there is no need to work in shifts, there is less work to do, and I can take care of my family.

Needless to say, none of the matchmakers succeeded.

Today, I heard that the girl was going to marry Li Yancheng, and many people said sour words about her.

What about second marriage, what about the welfare benefits of the police being bad, what about the Li family having nothing except that house, what about what she would do if she got married without the help of the elders, etc. etc.

Anyway, as Li Yancheng walked to the gate of his yard, he heard a lot of gossip like this with his own ears.

"Dacheng..."

"Hey"

Just as he walked up the steps to the gate of the courtyard, he heard someone calling him from behind. Li Yancheng turned around and saw that it was Zhang Lianyi who lived in Courtyard No. 15 on the east side.

His sister Zhang Weiyu was the only college student in Meishandong Hutong and even in several nearby alleys.

Unfortunately, I was unlucky and the classes were suspended in the second year. At the beginning of last year, I gave extra lessons to Ningning and other children at home.

At that time, Li Yancheng had just returned from medical support. When he heard about it, he quickly greeted Zhang Lianyi and asked him to stop.

Fortunately, they called a halt early, and someone had nothing better to do than report it. The next day, someone came to check, and the Zhang family was almost scared to death.

At that time, Li Yancheng also told Zhang Lianyi to find a job for his sister as soon as possible, even if it was a temporary job. But no one knew whether the Zhang family did not listen or Zhang Weiyu had other ideas, anyway, there was no movement.

There is no need to make any move now. This group of them has already decided not to go to school anymore and just wait to get their diplomas.

All those who are currently unemployed have already determined their destinations, and will all go to rural schools in surrounding counties and districts to work as teachers.

As for whether it is still possible to stay in the city, yes, it is entirely possible, but after the list came out, no one dared to make any moves.

There are so many eyes watching. Anyone on the assignment list would dare to secretly stay in the city at this time. Let's see if the letter of complaint can reach the top.

The Zhang family regretted it now. They regretted not listening to Li Yancheng and finding a temporary job first. At least they wouldn't have to go to the countryside. After getting the graduation certificate, even if they couldn't go to the schools in the city or district because they had to be assigned by the Education Commission, there were still so many branches of other units.

It is extremely easy to get a formal job for a college student.

Now, their files have been transferred to the corresponding suburban county education committees, and there is no use regretting it.

Just a thought!
Li Yancheng turned around and saw that it was Zhang Lianyi calling him, and he smiled and walked down the stairs again.

"Brother Lian Yi"

"Dacheng, you just came back from a business trip, how come I heard that you are getting married tomorrow?"

"Ah, we agreed on this a long time ago. I was busy with work recently, so I just happened to have some free time these two days."

"How many tables are you going to set up?"

"No, we'll treat everyone to wedding candy later. Brother Lianyi knows about my family's situation. We don't have any elders to help us with the arrangements, and her parents are not in Beijing. We can just keep it simple."

"Isn't that girl from Beijing? I heard she speaks with a Beijing accent. It seems her brother is from that committee and has a good relationship with you." Zhang Lianyi was stunned and asked in surprise.

"She is from here. Her parents are out of town for work. Her brother was worried about their health, so he went over to take care of them. Now she is the only one in Beijing."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Zhang Lianyi nodded in sudden realization, then reached into his trouser pocket, took out a red envelope, and quickly stuffed it into Li Yancheng's hand.

"In that case, Dacheng, here... this is a wedding gift from my family to you. It's not much, so don't mind."

"Brother Lian Yi, this is unacceptable."

Li Yancheng didn't expect Zhang Lianyi to suddenly put a red envelope in his hand, and he hurriedly wanted to return it to him.

But how could someone take back something that had been given out? While stuffing the thing in, Zhang Lianyi had already taken several steps back.

"Okay, Dacheng, put it away quickly. It's not good if others see you pulling it."

It is now the end of May and the weather is gradually getting warmer. Today is Sunday, and everyone basically has lunch around four o'clock. At this time, there are people sitting and chatting at the entrance of each courtyard. The noise made here is a little louder, so many people looked over.

Seeing that there were indeed quite a few people looking over, Li Yancheng could only helplessly put away the red envelope.

"Okay Dacheng, I see you seem to have just returned too, go in, I'll go back too."

"Thank you, Brother Lian Yi. You made me feel embarrassed."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? Go back quickly." Zhang Lianyi waved his hand and walked towards his home in the east.

"Hey, Brother Lian Yi, take care."

"Well, let's talk another day."

Watching Zhang Lianyi walking towards the east, Li Yancheng sighed helplessly again, shook his head, turned around and walked into the yard.

……

At the same time, far away in Dianhai District, Yin Anda was sitting in the backyard of a state-owned photo studio not far from their instrument factory. Sitting opposite him was the studio's photographer Cao Wanquan.

After coming here in the morning, he never went home. He wandered around outside during the day and only came back when the photo studio closed at six o'clock.

Because of his carelessness, Cao Wanquan told him in the morning that he would arrange for him to leave Beijing.

But when he came over and saw the sumptuous dinner that had been prepared, he was suddenly shocked.

Yin Anda is not stupid. If he were stupid, he would not have been able to get into university, let alone be sent to study abroad in Daxiong without any connections.

Looking at the sumptuous dinner on the table, he suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Please take a seat, Mr. Yin. We have been working together for three years. Today's dinner is a farewell dinner for you. The train tickets have been booked. We will leave tonight. If nothing goes wrong, you will be on the land of Hong Kong Island in three days at the earliest.

I will give you an address later. You can find someone there according to the address. They will help you to get the documents for Hong Kong Island and give you the money you deserve.

If you don’t want to stay in Hong Kong Island, you can tell them where you want to go and they will try their best to accommodate you.”

The words that came out of Cao Wanquan's mouth were like the sound of nature to Yin Anda's ears before yesterday, but now he was suspicious and felt that the words were so harsh and ridiculous. However, he did not say anything, but obediently pulled out the chair and sat down.

He knew very well that even though Cao Wanquan was over 50 years old and he was only 40 and in the prime of life, even if the two of them were tied together, they would still be no match for the fifty-something old man on the opposite side.

How could Yin Anda's hesitation escape Cao Wanquan's eyes? After thinking about it for a while, he immediately realized that this guy must be suspicious. He smiled, put the bottle of wine back on the table, and lit a cigarette for himself.

"Mr. Yin is suspicious of me."

"Uh... no... no!"

Yin Anda didn't expect that Cao Wanquan could see through his thoughts, and he was so flustered that he couldn't speak clearly.

"Haha, Engineer Yin, we have been working together for three years. You sent me information twice before, and the cooperation has been going smoothly. You made a mistake this time. Although it seems insignificant, it is possible that nothing will happen at all, but I dare not bet.

You should know that doing our job is like walking on a cliff. One wrong step will lead to falling into the abyss. So I can't gamble and must be extremely careful.

It is precisely because of my carefulness that I have been safe and sound all these years. You must have heard about the things that happened in your factory from last year to this year. Look at their consequences, and then look at me now. Haha, this is why I am extremely careful.

I won't hide it from you. When you told me this morning that you didn't check to see if there was a mark before you took out the data, I did think about getting rid of you."

At this point, the murderous intent on Cao Wanquan's face was not concealed at all. Just his gaze made Yin Anda almost unable to sit still, and his body began to tremble unconsciously.

Only then did he realize how ridiculous his idea of ​​striking first was.

In front of this man, I might not even be able to lift a knife in my hand.

The murderous look on Cao Wanquan's face came and went quickly, and in an instant he put on a harmless smile, as if nothing had happened just now.

He continued with a smile: "But then I gave up the idea."

"Why... why?"

"Because it's easy to kill you, but after killing you, other people won't trust me anymore, so you can't die. Not only can you not die, but I have to make sure you live very well. Only in this way will others continue to cooperate with me."

Cao Wanquan spoke the truth.

In addition to Yin Anda, he has two other partners in the key project team. Although these three people do not know each other's identities, they all know that the man named Cao not only uses means to control them, but also controls others.

Although they embarked on this road of no return under coercion and inducement, they also had fantasies about the brilliant life after completing the mission.

Now that Yin Anda has suddenly disappeared, the project team, the factory security department, and the Social Affairs Bureau will immediately launch an investigation. This news cannot be concealed at all.

Those two people will also know, and they will definitely be suspicious.

Doubts don't matter. As long as Yin Anda is still alive and living well, and as long as they see substantial evidence, such as photos, the cooperation will continue.

This incident will also give them reassurance, allowing them to work harder and complete the task as quickly as possible.

On the contrary, if Cao Wanquan really got rid of Yin Anda as he had thought before, then he would be really finished. The two men might come up with other ideas, and if one of them ran to surrender himself, then he would be really finished.

Therefore, after repeated consideration, Cao Wanquan decided that he must keep Yin Anda, and keep him living a comfortable life, so that the two people would continue to work for him.

After hearing his words, Yin Anda's eyes lit up instantly, and the originally stiff expression on his face became richer, and his eyebrows seemed to be dancing.

He swallowed and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Master Cao...Master Cao, you just...just said...you said you would send me away tonight, is...is that true?"

"Of course it's true. I've got the train tickets for you."

Cao Wanquan reached into his pocket, pulled out a train ticket and placed it on the table. He then took out a hardcover red book similar to a work ID card and a folded piece of letter paper from another pocket.

"This is the train ticket that leaves at 11 o'clock tonight. This is a new work permit. This is a letter of introduction. I'll change the appearance of it for you later. Remember your new name and work unit. Don't let yourself get caught up in an inspection. Otherwise, even the gods won't be able to help you."

Yin Anda took the three things with trembling hands. He looked so cautious, as if he was holding some rare treasure that would break if touched.

"Takeichi?"

Looking at the final destination on the ticket, Yin Anda showed a look of doubt on his face.

"Go there first. I'll write you the address later. When you get to Wu City, go find someone. He will arrange your itinerary. You just need to listen to him.

I just said that within three days at the earliest and five days at the latest, you will be guaranteed to be on the land of Hong Kong Island. Once you are there, you will be free. The mainland police have no power to arrest people there.

"call……"

Yin Anda let out a long breath, put the things in his hand on the table, reached out and picked up the wine bottle, poured a glass of wine into the glass in front of Cao Wanquan, then filled the glass in front of himself, and then picked up the glass.

"Master Cao, thank you. I'd like to borrow your wine. I'd like to offer you a toast. Let me drink it first."

He gulped down a glass of white wine.

"Hahaha..." Looking at Yin Anda's wrinkled face, Cao Wanquan laughed heartily.

"Come on, come on, Mr. Yin, eat some food. Don't get drunk. You still have to get on the train later."

There were not many dishes on the table, only four, but they were very rich, all hard dishes, braised pork head, cured beef, roast chicken, and a braised carp, which Cao Wanquan had just bought from the restaurant in front, and the wine was a bottle of freshly opened Fenjiu.

Considering his official salary, this farewell banquet was a huge expense.

Yin Anda was having a great time eating here, but his wife at home was furious.

Normally he is the one who cooks in their family. Not to mention that his wife was not at home at noon today because she took the children back to her parents' home. He rushed back at six in the afternoon just to eat a hot meal as soon as he got home.

As a result, not only was the stove in the house cold, but he hadn't even seen his wife's shadow. How could this not make his wife, the tigress, angry?

She asked her two children to go out and look for someone, and she walked around the house in circles, cursing.

Unfortunately, it is completely impossible for her to live a life of having food and clothes provided for her in the future.

I just don’t know if she will miss this cowardly man who has been bullied by her family for more than ten years.

……

Turn your attention back to the action.

After dinner at around six o'clock, Lao Xu received a report that Chen Yunwei had woken up, so he went to the room where she was held.

The interrogation of her and Chen Mingzhu has not yet ended, but because of their weak physical conditions, it can only be carried out for a while when they are awake.

When she was taken back to Beijing, Dong Qiuling showed no resistance as she had been mentally prepared. Just like when she was in Hong Kong Island, she answered whatever was asked and was very cooperative, without any effort at all.

It was different for Chen Mingzhu and Chen Yunwei. It had been 24 hours since they got off the train yesterday. During this period, the aunt and niece woke up three times in total. When they knew they had been taken back to Beijing, they both showed extreme resistance.

Chen Mingzhu was hysterical and refused to eat. But Chen Yunwei was different. She ate as usual but didn't speak. She didn't say a single word, like a mute.

This is Lao Xu’s fourth trip here.

The more these two people behave like this, the more it seems that there is something else in their mouths.

But without any clues, Li Yancheng would not be able to get more answers even if he used special interrogation methods.

It still depends on them to confess themselves, even if it's just a beginning. As long as they know a little bit of useful information, that special method can come in handy, so it is necessary to pry open their mouths.

Chen Yunwei, who was being fed by a female member of the Action Team, heard the door open. She rolled her eyes and looked, and seeing that it was the strange man she saw last time when she was awake, she lowered her eyes again and concentrated on eating.

It was not until more than ten minutes later when they finished their meal and the female team member cleaned up the dishes and left that Lao Xu pulled a chair and sat down, lighting a cigarette for himself.

He looked at Chen Yunwei, who was lying there with her eyes closed, thought for a moment and said, "So, you're still planning to say nothing and passively resist, right? You don't think this kind of resistance will work, do you?"
