I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 523 My Wife is Qin Huairu's Sister
When Song Wu was about to leave, the butler said to him, "In fact, I would rather you not leave for the next two days, but there are too many eyes staring at this place now, and I am afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so I will let you go home first. However, don't walk around easily at home for the next two days, so that I can find you at any time. You also know that the situation is extremely critical now. We are always prepared. I can only say that I will do my best to deal with it in terms of materials, personnel and technology. But I believe that if it is too serious, I am afraid that there will definitely be places that I can't take care of at that time. The most important thing is that I can't let go of my hands and feet, and many things cannot be mobilized. What gives me the most headache is that I can't use straightforward language to emphasize this serious situation. Such a critical matter must be explained to everyone in a roundabout way, and it cannot be publicized."

Song Wu watched the butler waving his hands vigorously while talking, and walking around the office. He was extremely depressed, even a little angry, until he kept on talking about something that was a bit like complaining. After a long time, he finally stopped and looked at Song Wu: "Song Wu, I can only say that we should try our best. I hope our efforts can minimize the losses. To be honest, I can't do anything about many things except myself. In the end, there is really no other way, we can only rush to the front together, are you willing to accompany me?"

Song Wu barely hesitated, and nodded seriously, saying, "I am willing. Every man has his duty, right?"

The butler walked up to Song Wu and patted him on the shoulder gently. "Don't be too heavy-hearted. We should always be optimistic. We have encountered all kinds of enemies and opponents, but we were all defeated in the end, right? How can the enemies and opponents under his feet be afraid of him? Okay, go back. There are many people waiting for you at home."

Song Wu didn't expect that the butler leader would make a joke after he finished speaking, which made him blush.

The butler smiled and said, "You are good in everything. You just lack the courage to forge ahead, and you are a little messy in handling relationships between men and women. But it's okay. You are not the kind of person who is fickle and cheats on others. Well, you should take charge of your own life. Go back first and be ready at all times."

In the small courtyard in front, Xia Ya, Gao E and Qin Huairu surrounded Yu Haitang and were questioning her carefully.

"Do you know when Song Wu left? He didn't leave you any message?"

Yu Haitang said innocently, "I was so sleepy that I didn't know anything. I slept until the afternoon and woke up in a daze. I thought he was here."

The other women were speechless. But they also understood. Who hasn't experienced it?

But this time was different. They hadn't seen Song Wu for a long time. They had never been apart for such a long time before. They had been worried all the time, but today they heard from the neighbors that Song Wu appeared at the gate of the yard this morning and was picked up by a car. They couldn't believe their ears and thought the neighbors were talking nonsense.

Later, they carefully questioned several people, and they all said they saw it with their own eyes. Many people were watching at the time, and they could all prove it. Only then did they believe that it was really possible that Song Wu had returned.

It was not until Yu Haitang came back in a daze that she finally confirmed that Song Wu had really returned and had stayed in Yu Haitang's room all night. She didn't know when he left in the morning.

This made Gao E and Xia very angry. They looked at Yu Haitang, who had an innocent face, with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire.

Only Qin Huairu was thinking thoughtfully. She felt that something urgent must have happened.

"Don't think about anything else for now. Think about who took Song Wu away. Is there any danger? And what preparations should we make?"

After all, everyone can feel the tense atmosphere now. Suddenly, after Song Wu came back, he was taken away directly. How could Qin Huairu not think too much?
She even has a feeling of powerlessness now. It turns out that there are many people around her, such as Zhou Ning, Hui Zhen, and He Yushui. Basically, whenever there is a problem, there is always someone who can help, or give advice and suggestions.

But now that everyone had left, she suddenly felt very desolate, especially in such an emergency situation with only two or three of them left. Now that they had been asking people about this matter, no one could come up with any good solutions or ideas.

Gao E, she managed the family and took care of the children. Her life was well-organized and she made you feel comfortable. But she never really worried about external affairs and never really got involved.

As for Xia, after all, she is a foreigner. No matter how familiar she is with China, she still feels a little superficial. The most important thing is that she is a literary youth. To put it bluntly, she is not tainted by worldly affairs and has no intention of worrying about trivial matters. She can basically provide no help with worldly matters like the current ones.

Take Yu Haitang for example. She may have some skills in doing those nonsense things to gain face, but she can't accomplish anything that is needed to live a real life.

Finally, back to herself, Qin Huairu sadly discovered that she was just a big shot in the yard. At most, she had some influence in the kitchen of the steel mill, but other than that, she had no power at all.

Without Song Wu, it would be difficult to move forward and difficult to find a plan.

By the way, there is another worry these days. Her sister Qin Jingru has come to her several times, saying that she can't stay at home anymore and wants to go out to work. She asked her sister to come to help, but the key is that she doesn't want to be a temporary worker, but wants to be a regular worker right away. The most important thing is that Qin Jingru has no skills and no education? How can she get a regular job right away? What can she do?
At this time in the west wing of the backyard, Qin Jingru and Xu Damao were also talking about this work.

The two of them clearly had a disagreement. For the first time in a long time, they were even a little angry and quarreling.

Xu Damao said to Qin Jingru in distress: "You have enough food and clothes, and you don't have to work too hard every day, just take care of the child. Life is so comfortable, why do you have to go out to work? Xiaoqing is still young, who will take care of him if you go out?"

Qin Jingru said, "I have already figured it out. I'm not saying I'm going out right now, but I want my sister to arrange work for me early. You can't do things at the last minute. At least let me see an interesting life in the future. I can't finally get out of the country and still be busy with cooking."

Xu Damao said, "Isn't it better to just hang around the stove like that? We can live a peaceful life and stay together every day. How happy it is."

Qin Jingru did not answer immediately.

After a minute or two, she suddenly asked, "I haven't seen Huizhen and He Yushui for quite some time. I heard that they were taking part in a study session, but it can't be that long. I asked my sister, but she wouldn't say it directly. I feel like she's hiding something from me. I suspect He Yushui may no longer be in Beijing."

When it comes to this topic, Xu Damao is obviously very interested, and his previous gloomy look is no longer there.

He asked with a gossipy look on his face: "So what do you think they did? Also, I don't know where Song Wu has been doing recently, and Qin Huairu hasn't said anything either."

"That's right. I haven't seen Song Wu for a long time. He used to hang around me every day. How come he's gone now? Is something going to happen? I feel like something is a little weird."

Xu Damao said, "What you said is quite accurate. It really seems like something is going to happen. Because the atmosphere in our factory is even weirder. You know? Many things are now presided over by Director Li. He organizes study and reporting every day. Moreover, recently many workshops and departments in our factory have let Director Li set up study inspection teams in the name of study and reporting. Humph, others may not be able to see it, and are just foolishly following the fun. But I saw it right away. What study inspection team? Isn't it just the old supervisory team Liu Haizhong used to have? Let me tell you, it's worse now than before. In the past, they did some practical work, but now they don't do anything practical and just focus on messing with people."

Qin Jingru sighed, "Ah, now that you put it like that, I was originally very enthusiastic and wanted to work quickly, but now I am a little hesitant. Forget it, if my sister can't help me find a job, I won't urge her. I'll wait and see, I always feel that something might happen. By the way, have you noticed that the deaf old lady often goes to Sha Zhu's house recently and sits there for a long time. What do you think she is doing?"

Xu Damao sneered and said, "I saw the old woman most clearly. She only has eyes for Sha Zhu. I have known this since I was a child. She always follows Sha Zhu about everything. Although she never says anything and always hides behind, I can see clearly that Sha Zhu is just like the apple of her eye. Yi Zhonghai and his wife take care of her every day, but in the end, they don't get any benefits. I don't know what they are trying to do."

Qin Jingru asked curiously, "Do you think Sha Zhu has any special relationship with the deaf old lady?"

Xu Damao said, "That's hard to say. Whenever I had conflicts with Sha Zhu, nothing would happen to me if I suffered a loss. But if Sha Zhu suffered a loss, the old woman would definitely jump out. If you say there is no special relationship, I will be the first one not to believe it. Let me tell you, maybe Sha Zhu is her son."

"Shh, don't talk. Listen, the old woman went to Shazhu's house again."

Xu Damao was talking like this when Qin Jingru grabbed his arm. He listened carefully and heard a faint sound of footsteps. It was obvious that the deaf old lady was passing by his door. Then she went to the middle courtyard from the west corridor.

Xu Damao stood up suddenly and said to Qin Jingru, "Xiao Qing is asleep now, so why don't we go and listen to what the old woman is doing at Sha Zhu's house?"

Qin Jingruwu hesitated for a moment, then stood up. She asked worriedly, "What if we get discovered?"

"What are you afraid of? I'm not afraid of the old woman. It's not like I haven't fought with Shazhu before. At most, I'll suffer a little loss. Besides, he may not dare to do it now. After all, my wife is Qin Huairu's sister. Does he dare to touch me? I don't think he dares. Let's go, hurry up, don't miss the show."
