After Su He returned home, she told Grandpa Ma what he had said.

Upon hearing this, Grandma Su said, "Heya, don't worry. Leave this to Grandma. If they don't move out, Grandma will call your great-uncle and the others over. We'll make sure they drive them away for you."

Su He chuckled upon hearing this, "Okay, then we'll leave it to Grandma."

Su He was very happy because the family had acquired another fixed asset.

Although she wasn't as keen on making money and hoarding courtyard houses as other time-traveling women.

But I also hope that in the future I will have the opportunity to have my own house, instead of being crammed together with other people like I am now, which makes everything inconvenient.

However, this idea is unlikely to be realized in the short term; we can only wait until after 1980.

Moreover, she remembered that a few years after the reform and opening up, Beijing would develop, and the large courtyards where she lived would definitely be vacated, so her family wouldn't live there for long.

They can save up some money and see if they can buy a small courtyard house when it's cheap, just enough for their family to live in.

That would make it perfect.

...

I'm thinking too far ahead.

After the Huang family sold their house, they used the money to pay off Huang Laosan's gambling debts. Speaking of which, when Su He and the others went to transfer the property, they encountered those debtors, and these people seemed to know the people from the housing management bureau.

Therefore, it is clear that if Huang Lao Er really insists on not repaying the money, this house may really not be saved.

As for the money left over from selling the house, the Huang family didn't keep it for long. Everyone knew they must have money from selling the house, so many people came to collect debts.

The Huang family repaid everything they could, and Su He guessed they probably didn't have much money left, since they also repaid the 20 yuan they borrowed later.

But the previous fifty hasn't been paid back yet. I heard that it was Huang Laoda's responsibility, and I don't know when it will be paid back.

However, the money from selling the house might not be enough for the Huang family to pay off their debts. It's unclear who else they still owe money to.

But at least after paying back the money, no one came to collect the debt anymore, which relieved Huang Lao Er's pressure a bit, allowing him to focus on his work.

Perhaps the family members are finally united, or perhaps things have calmed down, but in any case, the Huang family finally calmed down completely afterward.

Every day, besides taking care of Grandpa Huang, Aunt Ren and Shi Fen spend their time at home gluing matchboxes together, a rare harmonious scene.

...

Time passed slowly, and Su He and the others were not idle. Although the previous home invasion and rape case had no leads, they did not give up and kept a close eye on the follow-up developments.

That day, not long after Su He started work, she suddenly received a call from the local police station, the same station that had handled the Zhao Xiaoxue abduction case.

However, they didn't call about Zhao Xiaoxue's case, but rather about the thief who had been chased by Su He and his team for over 10,000 meters from Beijing to Hebei Province.

It turns out that after the thief was sent from the Hebei Provincial Police Station to Beijing, he was locked up.

As it happened, the provincial department ordered local police stations to make rectifications during this period, so the entire police station was extremely busy and made a mistake in the process, misclassifying his case into the wrong file.

More than twenty days have passed, and the case has not been heard, while the thief remains detained in the police station.

Until three days ago, the thief, who had been locked up for so long, for some reason, actually went to the police and said he wanted to confess to the crimes he had committed in the past.

It was only then that the police remembered the incident and hurriedly interrogated the thief.

As a result of the interrogation, some suspicious points were uncovered.
