Zhou Fugui couldn't see Zhou Bingchen and assumed that the train police had arrested him.

"Let me go, I just want to say something to someone I know," Zhou Fugui explained.

“Zhou Bingchen, your dad has gone mad! Your dad has really gone mad! He not only stole my bag with a knife, but he also tried to kill me.” Liu Moli said, her voice trembling with shock.

"Third brother, let me go right now! I'm your father!" A hint of joy flashed across Zhou Fugui's face.

Zhou Bingchen remained silent, his fingers flying across Zhou Fugui's body several times. He even dislocated Zhou Fugui's jaw.

Zhou Fugui suddenly felt weak all over and couldn't speak.

“If you have something to say, tell the police!” Zhou Bingchen said coldly, holding Zhou Fugui by the arm.

A few minutes later, Zhou Bingchen handed Zhou Fugui over to the train conductor and explained to the conductor that Zhou Fugui was a "wanted criminal".

The train conductor shook Zhou Bingchen's hand and said with deep emotion, "Comrade Zhou Bingchen, thank you!"

The train conductor originally intended for Zhou Bingchen to personally escort Zhou Fugui to the police station at the next station.

The capture of the fugitive spy was a significant achievement.

If Zhou Bingchen escorted the train himself, all the credit would go to him; if the train conductor sent someone to escort it, some of the credit would go to the train staff.

Zhou Bingchen refused, citing his assigned mission as an excuse.

Being late for school registration is crucial; it determines whether Zhou Bingchen will get a promotion and a raise in the future.

Zhao Zhenzhu is so good at making money, Zhou Bingchen doesn't want to fall too far behind.

Peach Blossom Town.

Zhao Zhenzhu was unaware that Zhou Bingchen had done something big again.

Zhao Zhenzhu is currently on her way to Huangjia Village.

Zhao Zhenzhu had promised Aunt Tao that she would go to Huangjia Village to thank Huang Xiuhong on her behalf. She happened to have some free time this afternoon, so she decided to take care of it.

Aunt Tao had prepared a basket full of gifts, and Zhao Zhenzhu tied the basket to the back of her bicycle and rode there.

As soon as we entered the village, several large stones were lying haphazardly on the ground, blocking our way.

As soon as Zhao Zhenzhu got out of the car, several children surrounded her.

"Don't move!"

"This road is blocked!"

Who are you looking for?

Where did it come from?

The children asked all sorts of questions.

"Children, could you tell me how to get to Huang Xiuhong's house?" Zhao Zhenzhu asked with a smile after the children's voices had quieted down.

"Where did you come from? What do you want with Huang Xiuhong?" A chubby-faced little boy stood with his hands on his hips and said angrily.

"I came from Peach Blossom Town. I need to see Huang Xiuhong about something," Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile.

"People from Peach Blossom Town are not allowed to enter the village recently."

"That's right, that's right."

"Get out of here, or we'll throw stones at you!"

The children started shouting again.

“Children, do your parents know how rude you are? Does your brigade leader know?” Zhao Zhenzhu said sternly.

"My grandfather was the brigade leader."

"The fact that people from Peach Blossom Town are not allowed to enter the village is what the village headman said."

"You'd better leave now, we don't want to hit you."

The children started chattering away again.

Zhao Zhenzhu was very troubled.

There were six or seven children, the oldest being six or seven years old and the youngest two or three. Two of them couldn't even speak clearly, and would just repeat "yes, yes" or "that's right" to whatever the older children said.

She couldn't hit them, and she couldn't scold them. Several children were holding hands and blocking her way. Zhao Zhenzhu was afraid of hurting the children if she forced her way through. She was really frustrated.

"Fine, I won't look for Huang Xiuhong anymore, I'll look for your brigade leader," Zhao Zhenzhu said with a sigh.

Aunt Tao once said that Huang Xiuhong's father was the head of Huangjia Village.

"Little Tiger, what should we do?" a little boy with a runny nose asked.

“My grandfather said that she can’t go in unless she sees a matchmaker from town,” Xiao Huzi said.

“I’m not a matchmaker, little friend. Do I look like a matchmaker?” Zhao Zhenzhu asked in surprise.

“Aren’t you the matchmaker who arranges marriages for bad guys? Last time, that bad matchmaker also came to my house carrying a basket. Her basket wasn’t even as big as yours!” Little Tiger pointed to the basket on the back of Zhao Zhenzhu’s seat and said.

Zhao Zhenzhu was both amused and exasperated.

It turns out the basket was the culprit.

If she had known, she would have used a cloth bag to carry the things.

“Children, I’m not a matchmaker. Can any of you go and tell Huang Xiuhong that Aunt Tao sent me? I’ll treat you to candy, okay?” Zhao Zhenzhu took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from her pocket and gave one to each child.

It's not that Zhao Zhenzhu is stingy. It's just that's how relationships are in this era.

Giving a stranger a piece of candy is already a very generous act. Giving too much might make them think you're a kidnapper!

"Auntie, I'll go tell her." Little Stone took the candy and ran off into the village.

"Are you really not a matchmaker?" Little Tiger asked, tilting his head.

“No, it’s really not,” Zhao Zhenzhu said firmly.

"Okay! Auntie, I'll tell you a secret, but you can't tell anyone else, okay?" Little Tiger took Zhao Zhenzhu's candy, then felt a little embarrassed and offered his own "secret" in exchange.

"Okay." Zhao Zhenzhu nodded, suppressing a laugh.

"The brigade leader is my grandfather, and Huang Xiuhong is my aunt. There was a scoundrel in town who wanted to marry my aunt, so he sent a matchmaker to propose marriage, but my grandfather chased him away," Xiao Huzi whispered to Zhao Zhenzhu.

"So that's how it is," Zhao Zhenzhu suddenly realized.

Upon receiving the message from Xiao Shitou, Huang Xiuhong rushed to the village entrance.

Upon seeing Zhao Zhenzhu, Huang Xiuhong said apologetically, "Comrade, I'm so sorry, the children were being naughty and stopped you. Please come in."
