Chapter 47 Buying Books for Lou Xiao'e

As soon as Lin Chen entered the courtyard, he saw He Yuzhu giving two pieces of bacon to the third uncle.

There was also a strip of bacon in his hand.

When Lin Chen saw this scene, he suddenly understood.

This is He Yuzhu's plan to use bacon to bribe the third uncle to help him introduce Teacher Ran.

At this time, He Yuzhu also saw Lin Chen and said to him.

"Lin Chen, don't think that if you go to the factory to report that I stole your car, I won't be able to survive.

Now when I have nothing to do, I help people prepare mats, and the income is no less than when I work.

Look, this bacon is what I left over from making a banquet.

It's you, but you've offended the ancestors of our courtyard. Let's see which family dares to let you stay during the Chinese New Year."

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he walked towards the yard behind.

But at this time, the third uncle patted Lin Chen on the shoulder.

"Comrade Lin, if you don't go out during the Chinese New Year, if you can't, come to my house.

However, my family's conditions are also difficult. There are several people in our family.

Just give me a few cents for food."

"No, thank you, third uncle."

Lin Chen knew that compared to the beasts in the yard, the third uncle was slightly better off.

In the original plot of the story, Ran Qiuye was punished because of her family background and was sent to clean the courtyard. Only the third uncle in the school did not avoid her.

But Lin Chen knew that He Yuzhu's bacon would never be delivered to Ran Qiuye under any circumstances.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, was so stingy that he plucked the feathers of geese and left the skins of animals. Why would he give away one piece of bacon when he could keep two of them for himself?

However, Lin Chen naturally didn't bother to deal with the conflicts between the two afterwards.

He has other things to be busy with now. He came to the world of Siheyuan to rectify the beasts, and he also has to work hard to protect the good people who love him and are kind during this difficult period.

Facing the turbulent situation, Lin Chen naturally cannot protect everyone.

So just protect those who are related to you.

Now that the trap has been poked, we cannot be irresponsible.

There are also her aunt Ding Qiunan and her master Ding Rushan. Not to mention, Ding Rushan was kind to his father.

Lin Chen could also feel that Ding Qiunan was very kind to him.

As a foodie, Ding Qiunan was willing to give his remaining can of candied chestnuts to Lin Chen, and Lin Chen felt warm in his heart.

This afternoon, Lin Chen had already bought a lot of books at the book market.

Books were also cheap at that time, basically only five or six cents each.

Lin Chen directly spent 200 yuan to buy hundreds of books, including Little Red Books such as Selected Poems of Great Men, Selected Works of Marx and Engels, Country and Revolution, Theory of Practice, Theory of Contradiction, etc.

Lin Chen knew that with Xu Damao's temperament, he would definitely want to report Lou Xiao'e in the future in exchange for fame and fortune.

So Lin Chen prepared countermeasures in advance and planned to go to Lou Xiao'e tomorrow to explain the situation and ask them to transfer all the family's property first.

Let the people in the bookstore put all these hundreds of little red books in Lou Xiao'e's home.

After a while, Xu Damao brought people to search his house.

You will get nothing and hundreds of little red books will be copied out.

Even if Xu Damao and the others were making trouble unreasonably, it was impossible to arrest Lou Xiao'e and the others with the textbooks of workers, peasants and soldiers as evidence.

Lin Chen also plans to make contact with the big leaders.

Although that leader may be dormant for a short period of time in the future.

But it was only a short period of hibernation.

Of course, it’s time for the deaf old lady to find an opportunity to send her in.

Since this old lady was acting like a rogue, she would break the windows of anyone in the courtyard who dared to let her stay during the Chinese New Year.

Then send this old lady in during the Chinese New Year and let her spend a unique New Year there.

By the way, let’s sing about tears behind bars again.

At around 7 o'clock in the morning of the second day, Lin Chen arrived downstairs at Lou Xiao'e's house.

Before liberation, the entire Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill was the property of Lou Xiao'e's family.

Although the living conditions are not as good as before, the living conditions are still excellent. It is a small two-story bungalow at the intersection of Grand Cross Street.

When Lin Chen arrived, people from the bookstore were already waiting for him at the intersection with bags of books.

"Comrade Lin, we have brought you all the books you asked for. Where are they going to be sent?" The clerk carrying two bundles of books asked Lin Chen.

"Just wait for me, I'll knock on the door, and then you can just bring the books into the house."

Lin Chen walked to the door of Lou Xiao'e's house and pressed the doorbell.

Not long after, I heard footsteps inside the house.

Lou Xiao'e was lying at the door of the house and looked out through the peephole. When she saw that it was Lin Chen, she opened the door excitedly.

She actually wanted to find Lin Chen these days.

But she really hated that yard and the people in that yard.

Not to mention that Xu Damao went out to break shoes after getting married.

As for Qin Huairu, Lou Xiao'e had always helped her, but she didn't remember her kindness at all, and even teamed up with He Yuzhu to harm them.

Lou Xiao'e opened the door and said to Lin Chen after seeing him.

"You still know how to come find me."

Although it was a reproachful language, there was a hint of ambiguity in the tone.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she saw four or five people standing at the door carrying packages.

"Lin Chen, this is."

"I'll talk to you later when I come into the house. You should take all these books into the house first."

After Lin Chen finished speaking, the staff of the bookstore moved all the packages into the house.

A total of seven or eight large packages were placed in the concierge on the first floor.

After everyone was put in, the lead clerk handed a receipt to Lin Chen.

"Sir, this is the receipt from our bookstore. Please sign it."

After Lin Chen signed, all the clerks in the bookstore left.

"Mom and Dad, this is what I told you. Comrade Lin Chenlin from our courtyard is now the propaganda committee member of the propaganda section of the factory."

Lou's father and Lou's mother heard the noise downstairs and walked down from the second floor.

Lou Tiancheng looked at Lin Chen and nodded. He was in his sixties, and although his hair had turned gray, his expression looked very energetic.

"Hello, uncle and aunt, I really took the liberty of visiting you this time."

Lou Xiao'e pointed at the pile of packages.

"Lin Chen, what are you doing here with so many packages?"

"These books are study materials for workers, peasants and soldiers. Let me make a long story short. Xu Damao may have reported your family to the factory.

Maybe they will bring people from the factory to search the house in the next few days.

Sister Lou, uncle and aunt, I have booked a car for you for the afternoon.

You quickly pack up all the valuables at home, such as televisions, record players, etc.

When the bus arrives in the afternoon, take it to a safe place.

It must be somewhere Xu Damao doesn't know about.

At that time, just keep these study materials for workers, peasants and soldiers at home."
