Courtyard House: She got anxious when He Yushui wasn't licked.

Chapter 157 Military Jeep 212, The Car Owners

"You little brat! You think you can hire two thugs just because you have money?"

The gang leader raised a large ten-yuan note in his hand, which he had stolen from Jia Banggeng. Without this money, Jia Banggeng would have no one to help him.

"My mom gave this to me! Give it back!"

Jia Banggeng reached into his pocket and found that his 100-yuan note was missing. He immediately rushed forward to snatch it back.

"Oh!"

The delinquent boy raised his leg and kicked Jia Banggeng hard onto the bed.

"Hit me!"

At the delinquent's command, his two henchmen immediately stepped forward and began to teach Jia Banggeng a lesson.

Although Jia Banggeng had learned some martial arts from the old beggar, with his current eleven-year-old body, he couldn't exert any fighting power at all, not to mention that his opponents were three teenagers who were several years older than him.

"what!"

Jia Banggeng cried out in pain.

The delinquent youth stuffed a smelly sock into Jia Banggeng's mouth to prevent him from shouting and attracting the attention of the guards.

Jia Banggeng felt the stench of rancidity assault his very senses, almost suffocating him.

Fists rained down on Jia Banggeng, and he was in pain!

At this moment, Jia Banggeng resented Qin Huairu for not rescuing him and for giving her money so that he could be beaten up that night.

This ungrateful wretch not only doesn't consider whether it's his own fault, but he also shirks all responsibility, saying he's completely innocent.

They only stopped teaching Jia Banggeng a lesson when the two delinquents were too tired to continue and were covered in sweat.

The delinquent yawned and said to Jia Banggeng, "Tonight's entertainment is over. We'll continue tomorrow."

Jia Banggeng was bruised and swollen. He looked at the two people in the other bunks with anger and hatred in his eyes. Ever since he became rich, these two people had helped him. Now, even if he woke up, they would only watch Jia Banggeng being bullied.

Jia Banggeng knew that if you're not ruthless, you can't stand firm, so after cleaning his nosebleed, he reluctantly lay down.

As for revenge, now is not the time; he must be patient and wait.

The three delinquents who had taught Jia Banggeng a lesson went back to their beds to sleep.

Throughout the night, Jia Banggeng woke up several times, afraid that he would open his eyes and see the arrogant faces of those three people again.

That night, Jia Banggeng experienced the darkness of society.

The next day at daybreak, the guards at the juvenile detention center would come and make the delinquents who had been brought in go out for a run and receive education and rehabilitation.

Jia Banggeng was still half asleep and thought he was at home. Plus, he hadn't slept well the night before, so he was incredibly sleepy.

The guards lifted Jia Banggeng's blanket and poked at Jia Banggeng, who was curled up and sleeping.

"Don't pull me!"

Jia Banggeng was as angry as a lion.

"Yo ho!"

The guard raised his hand and slapped him across the face, cursing, "You little brat! You think you came in here to enjoy yourself?"

After being beaten, Jia Banggeng finally realized the reality: he was sent to a juvenile detention center yesterday and was beaten again last night.

The guards sternly told Jia Banggeng, "Get up right now, fold your blankets and go out for morning exercises."

Jia Banggeng didn't dare to talk back. He knew that if he didn't obediently do as this person said, he would be beaten, or even locked up and starved.

In order to get out as soon as possible, Jia Banggeng silently began to fold the quilt.

Seeing that Jia Banggeng was so obedient, the guard did not continue to cause him any trouble.

After all the unruly students finished their morning exercises, a teacher entered the classroom to give them an educational lesson.

The reason why these delinquents are delinquent is that they grew up in the wrong way. They have done a lot of petty theft and fighting. The reason they cannot be locked up is that they are underage and can only be put in this juvenile detention center for education and reform.

Jia Banggeng was a terrible student to begin with. Classes were like gibberish to him; he couldn't concentrate on a single word. All he could think about was food. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so there should be some meat in this, right?

Lost in thought, Jia Banggeng fell asleep.

"Oh!"

Jia Banggeng felt a blow to his head, and he immediately jumped up and cursed, "That bastard!"

Seeing that Jia Banggeng was actually sleeping in the education class, the teacher thought he was utterly hopeless and said to him, "Don't even think about eating lunch. You're going to be put in solitary confinement."

Instantly, Jia Banggeng felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar. There was no food to eat, and he would miss out on the dumplings for lunch. Unconvinced, he angrily retorted, "Why?"

Looking at the defiant Jia Banggeng, the teacher replied, "Given your behavior of sleeping in education class, someone like you, who is a troublemaker, will only harm society and the people when you get out of school. You might as well just die sooner."

These words coming from a teacher clearly show that he deeply resents these bad influences. His long-term teaching has led to psychological problems, and if things continue like this, something bad will happen sooner or later.

The other delinquents just watched the show as Jia Banggeng was taken to a small dark room and put in solitary confinement.

When Jia Banggeng stepped into the pitch-black room, he instinctively felt fear. It was so dark that he couldn't see his hand in front of his face, and there was even the sound of dripping water.

The teacher didn't care whether you were scared or not. Faced with these bad kids, he simply pushed Jia Banggeng inside, locked the door, and left.

Jia Banggeng crouched down by the door, and immediately burst into tears out of fear.

"Damn soldiers!"

At this moment, he hated those who had sent him to the juvenile detention center.

"Grandma! Please come and save me!"

Jia Banggeng cried and then fell asleep hugging his legs.

It was almost 10 o'clock when Jia Banggeng was put in solitary confinement.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Lin, who had slept in late, got up and took some time to groom himself. After taking a nice bubble bath, he changed into a smart Zhongshan suit, fixed his hair, and then smugly looked in the full-length mirror.

Since the two mythical beasts slept quite late last night, Wang Lin didn't wake them up early, letting the two sisters sleep a little longer.

To ensure a dazzling appearance today, Wang Lin had prepared quite a few things in advance, including all the gifts he would bring for his New Year's visit.

Wang Lin quietly left through the back gate first. He followed the alley to the deserted street, then took out the car he had checked in with the system from his spatial storage. It was a Jeep with a military license plate.

The owner of this vehicle is a bionic robot created by the system at Wang Lin's request. The robot's identity is that of a minor military officer. Because Wang Lin saved the robot, the robot was granted the right to use the vehicle in gratitude.

All the proofs and other systems have been arranged in advance, and even unreasonable points have been proven to be reasonable and verifiable.

Wang Lin opened the car door and got into the jeep. He drove the jeep back to the front gate and parked it ostentatiously right there.

The point was to let everyone know that he arrived this morning in a military jeep, making him the most dashing guy on his blind date! Unrivaled in Beijing!

Passersby in the Tongluo Lane courtyard looked at the car. It looked very new, a 212 model from Beijing, clearly the vehicle of a military officer.

Chapter 158 Wang Lin visits to offer New Year's greetings and propose marriage

"Oh my, Xiaolin! You look so energetic today. Any young lady would be dazzled and unable to move after seeing you."

Before the Lunar New Year, Wang Lin asked Director Wang of the Subdistrict Office to find a reliable matchmaker. And now, Director Wang has arrived with her team.

"Aunt Wang, you've arrived."

Wang Lin hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Director Wang is the director of the subdistrict office, which is a position of authority, and housing is something that falls under her jurisdiction. Wang Lin had already made contact with Wang Fengxia beforehand.

Wang Fengxia introduced a slightly plump older woman next to her to Wang Lin, saying, "Little Lin, this is the rather famous matchmaker, Fan."

Wang Lin took a red envelope out of his pocket and stuffed it into the matchmaker Fan's hand, saying, "Aunt Fan, today's matter depends on you."

Matchmaker Fan had arranged many blind dates, but this was the first time she had ever seen a client give her a red envelope. After a moment of surprise, she immediately beamed and patted her chest, saying, "Don't worry, I've already found out everything about the girl's family. I guarantee this will work out."

Although the matchmakers always say this, only they know in their hearts that if the two people don't get along, no amount of inquiries will help, and some methods will be needed to bring about the marriage.

Wang Lin also remembered Wang Fengxia's kindness, and he gave Wang Fengxia an even bigger red envelope.

Money is just an external thing to Wang Lin. He had already accumulated tens of thousands of yuan through system check-ins.

In this day and age, tens of thousands of yuan is a lot of money. Once you have tens of thousands of yuan in personal assets, you're considered a "ten-thousand-yuan household." But the current trend hasn't changed, and nobody dares to go against the grain and live a carefree life.

When Wang Fengxia received the red envelope, she already knew that Wang Lin was very generous, which was an important reason why she cared so much about Wang Lin's affairs.

Although Wang Fengxia was the director of the subdistrict office, she didn't have any money to gain, and she couldn't betray the Party and the people, nor could she do anything illegal.

Wang Lin knew that Wang Fengxia had a grandson and that his daughter-in-law didn't have much breast milk, so he bought several cans of malted milk powder when he visited her.

When it comes to favors, offering them when someone needs them is like sending charcoal in snowy weather; such kindness will be remembered more vividly.

Seeing that it was almost eleven o'clock, Wang Fengxia reminded him, "Xiao Lin, you should get ready and leave."

Wang Lin nodded, and asked Wang Fengxia and Matchmaker Fan to wait for him outside for a few minutes. After saying that, he jogged into the yard to fetch his two younger sisters.

As Wang Lin entered the courtyard, he happened to run into He Yushui. It was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there was nothing to eat at home. He Yushui planned to go out for a stroll, as it was a rare holiday.

Wang Lin was a little anxious. After greeting He Yushui, he walked towards the backyard without stopping to chat.

"Wang Lin!"

He Yushui couldn't help but call out.

"Is something wrong?"

Wang Lin stopped and turned to look at He Yushui.

"No, Happy New Year!"

He Yushui never said it aloud; she could only manage a forced smile.

"Happy New Year."

Wang Lin replied in kind.

He Yushui watched Wang Lin leave, then locked the door of the side room and walked out of the courtyard in a daze.

Outside the compound, a very nice Jeep was parked at the gate. Seeing that Director Wang from the neighborhood committee was also there, she couldn't help but go up and ask, "Director Wang, whose car is this?"

Wang Fengxia replied, also unsure, "I don't know! When we arrived, the car was already parked in front of your courtyard. I guess it belongs to that courtyard house nearby."

Having arranged countless blind dates, perhaps hundreds or even thousands, Matchmaker Fan remarked with keen insight, "This is a car only military officers can afford; it's a symbol of status."

Upon hearing this, He Yushui couldn't help but fantasize: if she married a military officer, wouldn't she also be able to ride in this car?
