At 3:30 in the morning of March 29, Lu Shiyi and Su Jin carried Hanhan into the jeep, and Zong Li sat in the driver's seat. This time, there were four jeeps and two trucks on the way back.
Lu Bairen, Mr. Ning and the elderly couple Fu Laosan followed Lu Shiyi's car out of the yard. The truck started loading around 12 o'clock last night. They had made arrangements in advance and were waiting in a secret road in the family compound.
There were two guards in each jeep, and staff sat in the truck to escort the belongings used by the three elderly couples.
Su Jin leaned on Lu Shiyi's shoulder and listened to Lu Shiyi talking about the arrangements for the next few days in a daze.
"Ayi, grandpa and grandma came with us. Do they stay at the guesthouse every day?" Su Jin thought for a while and remembered that they did not stop the car along the way, only stopping occasionally to rest.
"No need. Each jeep has two drivers, so it's safest to just drive back immediately." Lu Shiyi squeezed her hand and said, "The other party has been staring at the train station and the bus station. I thought about it for a long time and decided it's safest to drive back."
Su Jin nodded in his arms: "Ayi, you are right. When buying train tickets and tickets, you have to go through people. If we buy so many tickets at once, the other party will definitely find out."
The convoy sped towards the gate of the imperial capital. It could drive faster on the city roads, but when it approached the outskirts of Beijing, the speed slowed down instantly.
"Wife, let's get out of the imperial capital as soon as possible. We've been driving for almost two hours now. We should be able to leave the imperial capital by daybreak." Lu Shiyi comforted Su Jin, "I've already filled some hot water and placed it by your feet. I'll feed Hanhan when he wakes up."
Zong Li drove with his ears perked up to listen to what was said in the back seat. He not only remembered that he had followed Jin Dashan to the station, but also saw Hu's spy before entering the station. The two of them did not stop at the ticket office at the train station, but left directly.
After returning home, Zong Li immediately told the news to Lu Shiyi. After he discussed it with the three old men, they unanimously decided to drive back.
The car left the imperial capital, and the people in the compound got up for training. Hu Ying heard from her informant that the three elderly couples had safely left the imperial capital.
"I'll tell grandpa to keep this news secret and not let anyone else in the family know." Hu Ying had spent a lot of time with Old Hu and understood what was in his mind.
Among the grandchildren of the Hu family, except for him, the others only consider their own interests. The current situation is somewhat different from what Old Hu thinks.
Hu Ying has a very high status in the family, and all the people in the Hu family will obey his arrangements. If nothing unexpected happens, after Mr. Hu passes away, Hu Ying will surpass his father and become the new head of the Hu family.
"Yes!" The guard who delivered the message immediately responded.
Mr. Hu repeatedly explained that Hu Ying's orders were equivalent to his.
After breakfast, Mr. Hu called Hu Ying to his study and asked her in detail about the three people leaving the imperial capital this morning. Only after hearing the news that they had left safely did Mr. Hu feel relieved.
"Don't worry anymore, just start planning." Old Hu instructed Hu Dao.
Hu Ying's brothers were jealous of Hu Ying's favor with Old Hu. They stayed by Old Hu's side every day, understood what he was thinking, and secretly helped him deal with some things.
"Grandpa, I have already made arrangements, and I have told the person who delivered the message not to tell the news to other people in the family." Hu Ying thought of his other brothers. They all wanted to pull him down from the position of heir and were determined to take the throne.
Who knew that being the heir of the Hu family was not easy? If one was not careful, the entire family would be destroyed.
After leaving the imperial capital, Lu Bairen sat in the jeep, his eyes watching the scenery moving rapidly behind him. Being able to leave the imperial capital so smoothly today, Lao Hu tacitly agreed and even let them go this time.
"My dear, please eat something." Du Ruo found that Lu Bairen had been silent since he left the imperial capital, and he didn't even eat.
Lu Bairen smiled bitterly. "The three of us had anticipated all sorts of problems upon leaving the capital, but surprisingly, nothing has happened. All checkpoints are operating as usual, with no temporary inspections."
"Did Old Hu arrange it secretly?" Du Ruo knew Lu Bairen's dilemma.
"This is the only explanation that makes sense. It must have been Hu Ying's arrangement. Old Hu asked Hu Ying to leave the veterans behind. However, with the children gone, it would be cruel for the elders to remain in this world." Lu Bairen sighed. "The commander also said that if the Hu family failed, Old Hu and Hu Ying would be spared. Although these two are the heads of the family, they are the cleanest hands in the Hu family."
Du Ruo thought of the little girl she had taken care of. Now the two families were in different factions and they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
"Have you told Ayi?" Du Ruo followed Lu Bairen's line of sight. The current scenery was indeed very different from that of the imperial capital.
Lu Bairen shook his head: "Ayi spends more time with the chief. Once the Hu family's actions are revealed, Ayi should be aware of it."
The car continued to move forward. Lu Shiyi used the radio installed in the car to send a coded telegram to Lin Zitao at the farm, hoping that Lin Zitao would clean up the houses for the three elderly couples first.
This telegram caused a major cleanup throughout the farm. Lu Bairen, Old Ning, and Old Fu had all worked with the top leader, so their coming was a big deal.
Lin Zitao immediately found a few capable military wives and asked Yunfeng to take them to clean up the yard.
"Sister Yunfeng, who is coming this time? I noticed that the farm has been busy cleaning these days." Sister An found that the atmosphere on the farm had changed, and Lin Zitao personally ordered the yard to be cleaned up.
"The heads of three families are coming here for recuperation, so we need to prepare the yard in advance to prevent the old men from arriving before the house is decorated." Yun Feng received the news. The identities and status of the three men were too high, so they should live in a private house with a separate yard.
Su Jin leaned on Lu Shiyi's shoulder and watched him send a message to the political commissar. She felt that the telegram was not as convenient as the phone.
"Ayi, why didn't you call Lin Zitao before leaving the capital?" Su Jin reminded Lu Shiyi that the phone was the fastest way.
"The Hu family thought of the telephone, so there are people from the Hu family in every telephone office in the imperial capital." Lu Shiyi has experienced the shamelessness of the Hu family.
"The Hu family secretly let us go, so we are safe for now. The three elderly couples had stubbornly refused to leave the imperial capital." Su Jin also sighed, "It turns out that man proposes, God disposes."
Lu Shiyi listened to Su Jin's complaints and looked at his wife cheerfully. Since their marriage, he had many concerns and would consider every mission more carefully.
"I arranged for Lin Zitao to clean up the yard in advance. When we get there, we can let grandpa and the others go back to their respective yards to rest." Lu Shiyi comforted Su Jin.
