Chapter 178: Going to Yanjing

Chapter 178: Going to Yanjing
Many workers at the steel mill recalled the scene of Xie Hushan being arrested by the county bureau, and they would tell their friends with full confidence that they saw with their own eyes that Xie Hushan was pointed at with a gun and handcuffed by the public security comrades from the county bureau who came down like a miracle, and then he was carried out of the steel mill without any explanation, stuffed into a jeep that was parked far away but had not been turned off, and was taken away in a flash.

Some people said that Xie Hushan's aunt was busy in the cafeteria and she collapsed on the ground out of fear when she got the news. Special envoy Lao Feng was sorting out the account books and documents in Xie Hushan's office when his wife, who worked at the steel rolling mill, broke in and slapped him hard in the face, scolding him for being heartless and inhuman.

Some people also said that when Xie Hushan was arrested, the first person to react was the silly Lao Meng who was in charge of guarding the weighing room.

As soon as the comrades from the county bureau arrested someone, Lao Meng reacted immediately, rushed into the workshop with a wooden gun and called on other militiamen to go and rescue Commander Xie together.

Unfortunately, Lao Meng’s wooden gun was fake and couldn’t fire. If his gun was real, Xie Hushan wouldn’t be able to take it away.

Although the guns of other militiamen at the steel rolling mill fired, it was too late. If the people from the county bureau had not run fast, they would have been shot to pieces by the militiamen at the steel rolling mill.

Some people also said that Xie Hushan must die just because of the gunshot. If his subordinates dared to fire guns in front of the police, wouldn’t they be tired of living and deliberately seeking death?

Han Laogou broadcast for more than an hour on the loud speaker, asking everyone to trust the commune and the county, and that no good person would be wrongly accused, and no bad person would be let off, etc.

Secretary Xiao Yang, who rarely speaks on the radio, also spoke for a long time on the radio, saying that now they only suspected that Xie Hushan had misappropriated the loan and that investigation and interrogation were still needed. He asked everyone not to make random guesses and that if he was wrongly accused, the organization would definitely clear his name, etc.

It would have been better if he didn't say it. Once he said it, everyone would speculate that Xie Hushan was doomed. If he was really innocent, the county bureau would never come to his door.

Xie Hushan's home was filled with members who cared about the Xie family or just came to watch the fun. The younger peers were persuaded to leave by Han Hongzhen and Han Hongbing, the siblings who had hurried over, as if they were door gods. However, they could not afford to offend the older elders and could only let them enter the Xie family.

"You all go back to the factory first. Production cannot be stopped. I'm here. Daxi, Ma Saner, persuade the brothers to go back. If there is anything, wait until I get back to the factory." Han Hongbing stood at the gate of Xie's house, took out a cigarette, lit it, and then asked a dozen people carrying weapons not far away to go back to the steel mill.

Chen Daxi and Ma Saner waved their hands and turned to walk towards the steel mill with their men.

"What happened to him? Did he spend all the loan himself?" Han Hongzhen waited until there was no one else at the door of Xie's house, looked at Han Hongbing on the other side, and asked in a low voice.

Han Hongbing bit his cigarette impatiently, his eyes fixed on Dahei not far away. Dahei had a cut at the corner of his mouth. That was when he was trying to catch Xie Hushan, Dahei pounced on him and bit him, but was kicked by the other party. He refused to let go, and the other party kicked him several times until his mouth was broken before he let go.

Dahei is the security chief and he does his job very well.

"Say something?" Han Hongzhen looked at her younger brother who didn't say anything, and couldn't help but raised her voice a little and asked.

Han Hongbing threw away his cigarette and looked at Han Hongzhen:
"Nothing will happen to him. If the county really holds a meeting to kill Commander Xie, I can just drive my car to hijack the execution ground, take him out, and go to Hong Kong Island, and never return home until I die!"

"What nonsense are you talking about! Are you going to die? Even if he dies, what will happen to Taozi, his family, and your family?" Han Hongzhen glared at Han Hongbing and cursed:

"One crime is not enough, do you all want to be shot?"

"Then what do you say we should do?" Han Hongbing looked at his fourth sister impatiently, his tone no longer as polite as usual.

Han Hongzhen crossed her arms and slowly squatted down, trying to calm herself down. After a long while, she seemed to have thought clearly about what she wanted to say, and asked Han Hongbing:

"You said you had a lover in Hong Kong Island, didn't he have one too?"

"You two useless women, you can't rely on them. Do you think you are some important overseas Chinese?" Han Hongbing took out another cigarette and put it in his mouth and said:
"I have to go to the county town tomorrow and ask Tiesheng to help me keep track of where the county bureau will hold the meeting..."

"Listen to me!" Han Hongzhen stood up, walked to Han Hongbing, and sniffed:
"The steel mill was raided, but the brick factory is fine. I have the money from last month and this month. I haven't paid it yet because I haven't had time to settle the accounts with Taozi's father. Please arrange a tractor to take me back to Yakou overnight. I will take advantage of these few days to collect the money for next month's orders. It should be several thousand yuan in total."

"What are you doing?" Han Hongbing looked at his fourth sister. After running the brick factory business for so long, she seemed to have become a completely different person. She was no longer the panic-stricken person who was at a loss what to do when encountering problems.

"Use money to borrow some connections and see what the charges are. Maybe he will just have to work in the salt field for a few years." Han Hongzhen stood straight and stared at Han Hongbing:
"Even if it's really a capital crime, doesn't Xie Hushan have friends in the railway? Ask them to help issue a few letters of introduction. With the money I gave you, send Taozi, Daxiu, Liunai, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Grandpa, Grandma, and my mother-in-law to Hong Kong Island. They can't stay in Zhongping Brigade anymore."

Han Hongbing curled his lips and said, "Everyone has his own responsibility. The one who died is Commander Xie. What does it have to do with his family? Besides, even if Commander Xie is gone, I am still here. Who dares to cause trouble for the Xie family? Don't be afraid of me..."

"Do you know what a loan is? That factory belongs to the brigade! If the factory can't pay back the money, it means that the brigade will have to bear the financial burden. All the young and old in the village will owe money to the county. If we stay here, won't we be scolded to death? Not to mention you, if the old Han family dares to stand up and support us, even the old Han family will be spit on!" Han Hongzhen has worked in the brick factory for so long. She is no longer the little widow who knew nothing at the beginning. Although she has never borrowed money, she knows what a loan means.

Xie Hushan borrowed a large sum of money, which might have been from the steel rolling mill. If he can't pay it back, the steel rolling mill belongs to the brigade, so the debt will eventually be charged to the brigade, and each household will have to share the responsibility to pay it back.

If it really comes to that, even the best neighbors will probably turn against you.

"Then give me the money. What do you want to do, Fourth Sister? If our team asks you for money and you can't give it to them, you will also be breaking the law." After hearing what Fourth Sister said, Han Hongbing's expression changed from irritability to depression: "Why don't you leave with us?"

Han Hongzhen glared:

"Why should I leave? As long as the brick factory is still there, it's fine. I'll be in charge of the factory and attract more business, so I can slowly pay back the money. Uncle Wu is kind-hearted and will definitely give me a way out. Besides, if I leave, who will wait for him to be shot and collect his body?"

"You are talking nonsense. You definitely don't want to live anymore. If there is a way to survive, would you let me send your mother-in-law away with me?" Han Hongbing said in a firm tone: "We can't do this!"

"What if we don't do this?"

As the two were arguing in low voices, Dahei suddenly cried and ran away, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Its reaction made Han Hongbing and Han Hongzhen come to their senses. They found that on the village road in the distance, Taozi, who went to the brigade headquarters to inquire about the news, was walking towards home step by step, followed by Erxi, who was pregnant and walked unsteadily.

"Fortunately, Sixth Grandma was persuaded by Taozi a few days ago to take Daxiu, who was on summer vacation, to a sanatorium for recuperation at her own expense. It will take nearly a month for her to come back. Otherwise, after what happened today, Sixth Grandma would have died on the spot." Han Hongzhen sighed when she saw Taozi appear.

"Fourth sister, you are here." Taozi saw the two of them and showed a slightly forced smile on her face, and sighed slightly:
"I'll talk to you later. Let's go home and calm everyone down first. It's okay. Nothing happened."

After saying that, Taozi walked past the two people and entered the Xie family's courtyard.

"Taozi..." Han Hongzhen opened her mouth and wanted to comfort Taozi, but she felt that now was not the right time.

Before Taozi entered the main room, she heard her aunt sobbing from the east room. She lifted the curtain and went in. The room was crowded with people and filled with smoke.

Second uncle Xie Qifeng squatted at the foot of the wall, holding his head, and said in a painful voice: "Ever since we helped the team collect manure, I didn't want Hu Saner to go! What can I do now..."

"Don't talk! Be quiet! What's the point of talking about that at this time!" Second Aunt Zhou Hongmei sat on the edge of the kang and reached out to help her sister-in-law Chen Chunxiang pat her back to calm her down:

"Sister-in-law, don't cry anymore. The brigade has said it on the radio. It's not certain what happened. It's possible that he was wrongly accused. There were not many people wrongly accused in the past few years. Maybe the county bureau leaders will take him to the police station for a few questions and clarify the matter. Then they will release Hu San'er tomorrow!"

Xie Qimao's face was full of anger, his fists clenched and creaked. Loans are no joke! If Xie Hushan really spent the loan lavishly, it would mean that everyone in Zhongping Brigade owed the country a famine. How could his nephew do such a shitty thing! How could the Xie family meet people in Zhongping in the future?
"Yes, it's still uncertain!" Accountant Zhao spoke up. He was a man of the worldly life in the third production team and a restaurant owner in Yaoshan City. He tried to comfort them:

"Don't cry, Damao's family. It's okay. It's just famine. We can just find a way to pay it back. Our team three is not a pauper..."

"Hey, hey, hey..." Ma Laowu whispered beside him, pointing a finger: "If you don't know anything, then don't brag about it, okay? What are you talking about?"

Accountant Zhao looked at the numbers Ma Laowu pointed out, and his smile was a little forced, but he still spoke:
"Ten thousand yuan... is a bit much, but it's not that much. In three years, under the leadership of Fifth Brother, and with Hu San'er's brain, our team will definitely be able to make up for the loss of ten thousand yuan..."

"I received a letter, it seems that a loan of 100,000 yuan was obtained." Ma Laowu leaned close to the ear of Accountant Zhao who was still trying to comfort the Xie family, and said in a mosquito-like voice:

"Even if we were cut into pieces and sold as meat, we still wouldn't be able to get this price. If you can pay me back, can I give you this opportunity to show your face?"

"Cough cough cough cough cough..." After hearing the numbers, Accountant Zhao coughed violently and almost coughed out his lungs. He stood up and ran out. Before leaving, he said to Ma Laowu:

"Well, I'll go to the cemetery and see if there's any space next to Hu San'er's parents' grave to bury him."

Everyone in the room was talking at once, trying to persuade the Xie family members. At this time, Taozi came in and greeted everyone with a calm face.

No one cared about her at this time, and Taozi was not in a hurry. She stood quietly by the kang, waiting for the room to be quiet for a moment before she spoke:
"I just went to the brigade headquarters to inquire."

In a word, everyone in the room turned their eyes to the unmarried daughter-in-law of the Xie family.

"What did the team say?" The aunt looked at Taozi, her eyes full of expectation.

Taozi smiled at the aunt and said softly:
"Nothing. I asked Secretary Xiao Yang, and he said that it seemed that someone was jealous of Third Brother's purchase of a jeep and was not satisfied, so they reported Third Brother, saying that Third Brother bought the jeep with a loan and caused our brigade to suffer from famine. Secretary Xiao Yang said that the jeep was bought before the loan, so this must be an injustice. He will report it to the county leaders. Let me come back and wait patiently. Tell you, Grandpa, Second Uncle, and Second Aunt not to worry, especially don't let Grandma know. By the time Grandma comes back, Third Brother should have come back a long time ago."

"Yes, yes, yes, the car was bought first. Secretary Yang's mother-in-law helped to make the connection. Just ask his mother-in-law to help testify about this matter!" The auntie seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and started talking to herself. Her face suddenly became much more relaxed.

Taozi was now looking at the other people in the room, still smiling, but her voice was a little louder:
"I know that everyone is here because they are thinking of my third brother. They are all elders who have watched him grow up. That's the thing. I will accept everyone's kindness on behalf of my third brother. When he comes back, I will accompany him to thank everyone's homes. Even if he doesn't want to go, I will definitely go. I will light a fire and cook, and everyone can stay and eat together."

Except for Ma Laowu and a few others who were truly concerned about Xie Hushan, the expressions of the other onlookers changed slightly.

This young wife who hasn't married yet is not easy to fight with. She usually speaks softly, but when something happens, she dares to say something really disgusting.

Not only was she trying to drive people away with words, but what she meant was that if people in the room liked to spread gossip, they had to spread it outside according to what she had just said.

If there was any news outside that was different from what she said, after Xie Hushan came out, she would definitely bring her men to their house to fight with them. Even if Xie Hushan couldn't come out, she, Xie Jinfeng, would definitely go to their house to make trouble.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt looked at each other and saw the emotions in their sisters-in-law's eyes. Even though they were from the countryside, they understood Taozi's last sentence.

Otherwise, the mother-in-law would treat the granddaughter-in-law she personally chose as the apple of her eye. When the two sisters-in-law encountered problems, one cried and wiped tears, and the other sighed. The two old men in the family, one squatted against the wall, and the other was dazed.

Normally they are the ones who are in charge, but when faced with something like this, they all panicked and didn't think about how to maintain their dignity and not be laughed at by others.

As a granddaughter-in-law who has not yet married into the family, she has always been neither humble nor arrogant, and she has spoken decently. If you want to see the excitement, you don't have to ask around the world. I can tell you clearly that the excitement is that someone is jealous of the Xie family and deliberately reported and framed my man.

I have told you all about this. If you dare to spread any other gossip again, that would be intentional harm to the Xie family and destroying their reputation. The person who reported it might be among you, so it is only natural that I will come to your door afterwards.

"Let's go, are you really waiting for Taozi to cook for you?" Ma Laowu knocked on his pipe and said to the people in the house:
"Watch your mouths, youngsters, please be polite. Elders should also be polite. Let's go."

As soon as he opened his mouth, the people who were watching the fun also walked out. Xie Qimao and Xie Qifeng held on to see the people out. Ma Laowu walked in at the end. After seeing the people off, he did not leave. He turned around and came back. When he passed the main room, he looked at Taozi who was burning the fire and whispered:
"Secretary Xiao Yang didn't say that, did he? Next time you lie, don't put your hands behind your back. If you want to put your hands behind your back, don't take them out again. Your fingers are twisted white."

Taozi lowered her head, and Ma Laowu patted Taozi on the shoulder:

"It's okay, you did the right thing. You have to keep up appearances at this time and not let others laugh at you. You know what to say, but you are the only wife who can really hold on when faced with difficulties, and I, your fifth uncle, have ever seen you."

Taozi lowered her head and thought to herself that it was her third brother who had warned her in advance, otherwise she was not sure if she could really hold on. She might end up being as panicked as her aunt and second aunt.

Then Ma Laowu entered the house again, and after Xie Qifeng and Xie Qimao entered the house, Ma Laowu spoke to the two couples:

"Didn't Taozi say that? How could Secretary Xiao Yang lie? This must be a false accusation against Hu Saner. Although Hu Saner is a naughty and mischievous person, he would not do such a wicked thing."

Seeing that Xie Qimao still had an angry expression on his face, Ma Laowu said to him:

"Da Mao, don't be angry. At worst, we can sell the steel mill and lose money. At worst, the team can just continue to farm and not start a sideline business. What are you afraid of?"

"You don't understand. Breaking the law is not just a matter of paying money." Xie Qimao held his head and said in a muffled voice.

Taozi was listening to the old man in the main room, kneading dough in her hands, without saying a word. She was struggling over whether or not to tell the old man the truth. Seeing his reaction, she was almost mad to death.

Xie Qimao spoke in a choked tone in the room:
"I'll go to the county tomorrow and ask Minister Jiao if he can be saved if he can be compensated... Alas..."

Upon hearing this, Taozi immediately became firm again and it seemed that she could not tell the truth to the old man.

Keep cooking.

……

"In summer, rice porridge is more enjoyable and relieves the heat better than cold noodles."

Xie Hushan sat in a special seat in the interrogation room of the county bureau and was not handcuffed or shackled.

At this moment, he was holding a large bowl of cold and refreshing rice porridge, shoveling it into his mouth with chopsticks, and then swallowing it with pickled vegetables from the county bureau cafeteria. Then he said with a satisfied look on his face, "You can't let me pay for this meal myself, right?"

Across from him, Feng Chunlai stood beside the interrogation table with his left cheek red and swollen, gnashing his teeth. He watched his two colleagues sort out their confessions and responded to Xie Hushan:

"My wife paid for you. The slap she gave me hurt so much. To be honest, I haven't received such a severe beating since I left the army."

"Old Feng, you are really not as good as my Aunt Feng. I sent you a bunch of peonies, but they couldn't warm your heart? You don't recognize your relatives and you even took my account?" Xie Hushan burped and said to Feng Chunlai with a half-smile:

"It was me who arranged this for Aunt Feng. Without me, you two would still be the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. I'm not asking you to show mercy, but could you at least give me a message in advance so I can prepare?"

"Is the meal enough? If not, I'll go to the cafeteria and get you another portion. Forget about the other things. Just do business as usual. Do you think this is the Zhongping Brigade? This is the county bureau. Don't try to curry favor with us." Feng Chunlai looked at Xie Hushan with a stern face and said:

"Because my wife works at a steel mill, I avoided suspicion and did not participate in your interrogation."

"It's enough food. I can't eat much in such a hot day. But you arrested me too quickly and didn't even bring my cigarettes and lighter." Xie Hushan finished the last bite of his meal, pushed his bowl and chopsticks aside and said to Feng Chun.

Feng Chunlai took out a Mudan cigarette, walked over and put one in Xie Hushan's mouth, lit it for him, hesitated for a moment, and put the lighter and cigarettes in front of him:
"Keep it in your pocket. It's you who gave it to me anyway."

"I've told you everything I can say. You won't try to use any more tricks on me, will you?" Xie Hushan exhaled a puff of cigarette, and asked with a smile while looking at the two police officers who were organizing the confessions with stern faces.

The two policemen looked at each other, then looked at Feng Chunlai next to them, wondering what other tricks they would use.
Although Old Feng stationed in Zhongping did not participate in the interrogation throughout the process, he was watching from the side, acting as the boy's bodyguard. He even went to the toilet with Xie Hushan. Wasn't it because he was on guard against someone from the county bureau suddenly taking action against this young man named Xie Hushan?
The two of them sounded like they were just being official, bullshit, it was all fake. Old Feng was almost handcuffing him and Xie Hushan together.

"Hold your attitude more straight!" Feng Chunlai kicked Xie Hushan's trouser leg and scolded him. Then he returned to the interrogation table, picked up the confession and confirmed it word by word, saying:

"Xie Hushan, you are in a very serious situation. Anyway, judging from the current situation, if it is true, you were shot for sure. Do you have anything else to say? Is there anything your family needs me to convey?"

"Old Feng, the confession has been sorted out. I think if it doesn't work, we'll just go through the procedures and detain you temporarily." An old policeman took the confession paper back from Feng Chunlai's hand and spoke.

This case is not a small one, and it is hard to say whether Lao Feng really has any personal connections with Mr. Xie.

Feng Chun came to see the other party taking back the confession paper and nodded awkwardly: "Follow the procedure and deal with it as it should be handled."

"Get up! I'll untie you and let you eat something for Old Feng's sake. Are you still showing off? I tell you, just this matter with the workers in your factory is enough to deal with you!" Another policeman scolded Xie Hushan, took out the handcuffs and prepared to start the detention procedure.

No wonder the leaders of the county bureau have always said that the special envoys of each commune must be carefully selected people. This time when they went down to arrest people, they finally saw that ordinary people really can't get by.

Fortunately, Lao Feng had instructed in advance to park the car quietly not far away and not to turn off the engine, load Xie Hushan and run away quickly, and leave the rest to him.

The countryside was really lawless. According to Lao Feng who came back later, the brigade secretary was so angry that he almost turned against him and detained him to exchange hostages with the county bureau. It was the commune’s armed forces minister who personally pleaded for his release.

Xie Hushan raised his hands and was about to let the other party handcuff him when there was a knock on the door of the interrogation room. Without waiting for the person inside to respond, the door was pushed open and two figures in police uniforms walked in. The tall and strong young police officer in the lead slapped his work permit and a cooperative investigation application report on the interrogation table:
"Comrade, hello, we are from the Public Security Section of the Bingyang Police Department of the Yaoshan Police Section of the Tianjin Railway Public Security Bureau. My surname is Song, and I am an officer of the Public Security Section. This is my work permit and the application report for the Yaoshan Police Section Bingyang Police Department's assistance investigation. The senior leaders of the Bingyang County Bureau have signed it."

The old policeman took the work permit and took a look. It was indeed from the railway public security system. "Song Tiesheng? What's going on? How come someone from the railway system is involved in a local case?"

He picked up the report again and took a look at it. Sure enough, it had the director's signature and seal.

Song Tiesheng looked at Xie Hushan, who had raised his hands, with a righteous look on his face:

"Xie Hushan, we suspect that he organized people to engage in illegal activities in the freight yard of the railway in Bingyang many times, causing huge losses of materials. Our railway has been keeping an eye on him for a long time. This time, when we learned that you had arrested him, we immediately applied to bring him over and prepare for a surprise attack. We will use some means to make him confess all the things he did on the railway."

When the old policeman heard that the other party wanted to bring someone in, he subconsciously asked, "If you take the person away for investigation, what if we need to interrogate him again in our case?"

"Old comrade, at your age, can't you tell priorities?" Song Tiesheng heard the old policeman's words and was a little dissatisfied with the railway taking people away. He stared into the other party's eyes and said:
"Most of the goods in the railway freight yard are important materials allocated by the state. If I don't take the person away for quick interrogation, it will delay the recovery process and cause losses to the country. Will your Bingyang County Bureau be responsible for compensation? If you can say you will, I will turn around and leave. I will come back with a list of losses to pick up the person and the money after you close the case. Otherwise, you can wait until we finish the interrogation and send the person back. It's your choice."

The old policeman was suddenly speechless.

The recovery of the goods was delayed and losses were caused to the country, which the county bureau could not afford to compensate.

I am too talkative. The director has already signed it, so why am I butting in?

"Isn't this my eldest nephew? Why is he showing off in front of your third uncle?" Feng Chunlai came over to laugh and ease the awkward situation between the old policeman and Song Tiesheng, and introduced him to the old policeman:

"Hey, the kid from the railway old Song's family, Old Song died in the earthquake, my wife's sister and Old Song's wife were classmates, so they are nephews. What's wrong, Tiesheng, you don't recognize me, you didn't even say hello to me when you saw me when you walked in, are you so bold?"

"My mother said that when we are at work, we should address him by his title, Third Uncle." Song Tiesheng said impatiently.

Feng Chunlai pointed at the old policeman and said to Song Tiesheng: "What's the point of calling him by his title? He's your uncle, and he's also friends with your father. You have no manners at all when you talk to him."

"Uncle." Song Tiesheng addressed the old policeman in a hoarse voice as a friendly name, and the old policeman smiled and said:
"Okay, I'll leave the person to you."

Song Tiesheng tilted his head, and his companion took out his handcuffs and put them on Xie Hushan, and then pushed Xie Hushan outside.

Song Tiesheng said a few polite words before turning around to say goodbye. When they arrived at the county bureau compound, Song Tiesheng opened the back door of the jeep and asked Xie Hushan to sit in. He sat in the back seat with him and waved to Feng Chunlai and others who had come to see him off.

The jeep roared and drove out of the county bureau.

Before the rear wheel left the compound, the handcuffs on Xie Hushan's hands had been undone. He moved his wrists, and Song Tiesheng said beside him:
"Except Dongzi, no one else knows about this. We've also informed the Public Security Department. It won't be a problem if we leave in ten days or half a month."

"What reason can make your leader willing to give you and Dongzi a vacation of ten days or half a month?" Xie Hushan smiled when he heard Song Tiesheng's words.

Song Tiesheng's younger brother Dongzi, who was driving, said with a smile:

"Our leader said that we need to give the enemy some breathing space. Now we can no longer see any thieves stealing rails or trains in our Bingyang section. Brother Song has led us to catch and eradicate them all. We need to take good care of them, so they gave us a few days off so that the thieves can have a break."

"Where are you going, third brother? The letter of introduction is ready." Song Tiesheng asked.

Xie Hushan sat back in the back seat: "Have you prepared the specialties I asked you to prepare for me?"

"It's ready." Song Tiesheng said, "It's in the back. I'll get off the car and bring it to you for you to see?"

Xie Hushan looked out the window:
"No need, change your clothes and go to Yanjing. I will take you to see the world."
