Chapter 49
49.
Under Tian Guangqian's "coercion", Yi Hanxing finally chose to be a filial daughter. After all, taking care of parents who were pretending to be sick was not ashamed of writing a bloody novel that would always be stuck.
When the old man and old lady of the Cheng family arrived at the rented house, they were very satisfied with the house that Tian Guangqian had rented. Seeing Han Xingniang coming over from next door after hearing the noise, Old Lady Cheng quickly held her hands and said affectionately, "Mother-in-law, this time it is really thanks to you for helping us find a place to stay. We have been neighbors for a while, so it is a good opportunity for us to help each other."
"Oh, what's so hard about this?" Han Xingniang said quickly, "We just saw that the place next door was empty and asked the landlord for you. It's better to live together than to live next door to some unknown neighbor."
Tian Guangqian heard this and interrupted, "Not only that, Mom, you can go up to the fifth floor and have a look. We can install a door at the entrance of our stairs like the landlord did. Then we will be the only ones who can enter and exit the entire floor. It will be much safer."
"You kid!" Han Xing's mother didn't say anything, so Old Lady Cheng spoke first: "Do you need the landlord's consent to install a gate? Even if the landlord agrees, your mother and I will only be living here for two or three months at most. Why would you install a gate in such a short time?"
Hearing this, Han Xingniang nodded repeatedly. "Exactly. If you're installing a gate, do you want an iron door or a wooden one? Iron doors are so expensive. A wooden door will break in two strokes. What's the point of having another door?"
The two old ladies said the same thing. Tian Guangqian just thought it would be more convenient to add a door. Since the two hostesses thought it was unnecessary, it didn't matter if they didn't add it. It would just mean that the people living on the sixth floor and the landlord could see what was happening in their own corridor.
The Cheng family had to settle down first, so Tian Guangqian took Yi Hanxing home first.
"Dad," Tian Guangqian said with a smile, "Look, my little sister is back! Surprised or not?"
Han Xing's father didn't say anything, but looked at Tian Guangqian in confusion, feeling that something was wrong.
It happened that Han Xing's mother also returned home after saying goodbye to the old lady of the Cheng family. Tian Guangqian said directly to them: "Dad is sick and needs us as his children to take care of him. It's a good thing that my younger sister is back and my second sister is also next door. If you have any problems, just go to them. I have something to do these few days, so I'll go and be busy now. I will come to visit you in a few days." After saying that, Tian Guangqian ran downstairs without taking anything with him before his parents could react.
"You..." Han Xing's father didn't finish his words. Seeing Tian Guangqian running away, he quickly got up and stuck his head out the window, shouting at Tian Guangqian who was already hailing a rickshaw: "What is more important than taking care of your sick father?"
"Nothing's wrong!" Tian Guangqian put his hands to his mouth like trumpets, looked up and shouted: "But you can even stand up and yell at people, your illness must be getting better soon!"
After saying this, Tian Guangqian signaled the rickshaw driver to hurry up.
"This brat!" Han Xing's father couldn't help but curse: "I raised him for nothing!"
Seeing his father so full of energy, Yi Hanxing suppressed the twitching of his mouth and said, "Dad, can't you just pretend to be sick? My brother has already found out."
Hearing Han Xing's words, Han Xing's father slapped his thigh in frustration: "I knew something was wrong! Turns out this brat found out! This time he definitely won't come back."
"I felt like I acted pretty well, so how did I get discovered?" Han Xing's father was puzzled.
"It must be because you just ran to the window and yelled at someone." Han Xingniang said, "I'm just a fool. Seeing you so energetic, I wouldn't think you were sick."
"So it's still that brat's fault!" Han Xing's father said with certainty, "If he hadn't refused to take care of his own father when he was sick, would I have run to yell at him in such a hurry?"
"Dad and Mom, have you ever thought that Third Brother discovered it first, and then pushed it onto Second Sister and me and ran away?"
"Impossible!" Han Xing's father denied it outright: "I pretended so well before, and your brother took care of us for three or four days. How could he have discovered it?"
"Maybe he feels that he can't cut off contact and leave you two alone, but it's too troublesome to convince each other after exposing you, so he just pretends for three or four days, and when my second sister and I come, he won't have to worry about it anymore?" Yi Hanxing described Tian Guangqian's psychology.
The more Han Xing's father listened, the more he felt that this was something his third son could do.
"And my second sister told my second brother five or six days ago that she was going to bring me to Shanghai." Yi Hanxing continued.
"No wonder!" Han Xingniang thought back and realized, "When he brought us here before, he said there would be plenty of opportunities to go look next door. I guess he had already rented it at that time, and then he pretended to just find out and told us Xiu De was coming."
"He even specifically pointed out the school Xiurong attended, saying this place was close to her school." Han Xing's father also recalled: "At that time, he wanted us to live with Xiurong! He also took into account the issue of Xiurong starting school later."
"When did he find out?"
"You little brat is really good at acting. It doesn't look like he found out I was pretending to be sick." Han Xing's father muttered.
"Should we still pretend to be the child's father?" Han Xing's mother asked.
"He knows everything, and he's clearly not going to do anything about it. Everyone's already fled, so what else can we do?" Han Xing's father couldn't help but feel a headache. "How dangerous is it to go against a foreign government?"
After hearing this, Yi Hanxing probably guessed why his parents were feigning illness: "Dad, are you pretending to be sick because you don't want Third Brother to go against a foreign government? What is he planning to do? What happened?"
"You know about the literary inquisition, right?" Han Xing's father said, "Your brother
A friend of yours said something he shouldn't have said, and was arrested by the police from the concession. Your brother and the others are planning to say something even more inappropriate together, hoping to save his friend."
Han Xing's father said this, not forgetting to diss them: "How can they be so naive? Just holding a pen and daring to go against others holding guns? In ancient times, the emperors carried out literary inquisitions. If one person slandered someone, the whole family would be executed. If a group of people slandered someone, the entire clan would be exterminated. Now they don't use the system of collective punishment, but isn't it easy to arrest a few more people?"
Han Xing immediately understood the general background of the matter and asked, "What did his friend write? He said something he shouldn't have said and was arrested by the police in the concession. Your brother and the others are planning to say something even more inappropriate together in order to save his friend."

Han Xing immediately understood the general background of the matter and asked, "What did his friend write?"
It wasn't far away, and I could clearly see what the people inside were doing. There was also a boss who was specifically collecting fees, so I stopped trying to stop him: "Then go down and make the phone call. Do you have money?"
"Yes." Yi Hanxing replied, "I haven't spent all my pocket money yet." Having said that, Yi Hanxing hurried downstairs.
"Boss, let me make a few calls." Yi Hanxing picked up the phone and called He Zhifeng first: "Sister Zhifeng, do you know what my third brother is planning to do with those literati recently?"
"Your brother and the others..."
After asking He Zhifeng for details, he said, "If the content is incorrect, please go to the original site at t-u-9-3 to read the book."

After learning about the situation in detail from He Zhifeng
Why don't you guys find out what's going on? Or tomorrow?"
"Okay!" Wang Fu agreed immediately. "Is your third brother involved in this matter? But it's true. Master Jianhua is well-known for his integrity. They will definitely support such things! So, will you contact everyone or should I do it?"
"Can you help me contact them?" Yi Hanxing asked, but she hadn't considered a second option. "I'm calling you from a public phone booth right now! If they're out having fun, I can't tell their families to come back and call the public phone booth." If the content shows an error, please go to the original site at 9:30 PM to check. Why don't you guys find out what's going on? Or maybe tomorrow?"

After agreeing, he saw Han Xing dragging her suitcase back to her room. He couldn't help but look at Han Xing's mother: "I thought she was fooling us when she said her classmates liked her?"
"I thought so before, too. But she called her classmates on the first day she came back, and they came over to visit her the next day?" Han Xingniang also found it a little unbelievable: "Is this a habit of new-style students? They reunite with their classmates immediately after a long absence?"
"When the eldest and third child went to middle school outside, it wasn't like this." Han Xing's father said, "I feel like they're still not quite right. We should take a good look at it tomorrow. Maybe there's something fishy going on. If the content is incorrect, please go to the original site at 9:3 to read the book." He agreed and saw Han Xing dragging her suitcase back to her room.

"When the eldest and third sons went to study in other middle schools, it was not like this." Han Xing's father said: "I feel that they are still not right. We should take a good look tomorrow. Maybe there is something fishy going on inside.
Wooden sword." Qin Guanyu said.
"Old Qin, this is too dangerous." Wang Fu said, "And there are girls involved."
"A four-year-old girl." Qin Guanyu said, "Based on my experience, the younger sisters of the uncles and aunts in our gang also like to play around with swords when they are four or five years old."
"But... you also said it was your gang." Even Zhou Yuetong felt that it was not appropriate.
"It doesn't matter." Zhou Yuetong said: "If it doesn't work out, then consider it a joint gift from Lao Qin and I. It just so happens that we are both made of wood."
"That's fine." Wang Fu thought it was fine. "I don't think a six-year-old boy would like such simple building blocks."
Zhou Yuetong was not convinced when he heard Wang Fu's words: "I liked it when I was six years old. What did you give me?"
Wang Fu opened the one he was carrying and said, "Of course it's the candy gift box that all children love!"
I lost. Zhou Yuetong thought and looked at Zhou Yizi: "Yizi, what have you prepared?"
"No need to ask." Wang Fu and Qin Guanyu, former classmates of Zhou Yizi, answered in unison and smiled at each other: "He must have prepared books!"
Zhou Yizi indeed took out two picture books.
Zhou Yuetong, who didn't know Zhou Yizhi that well, sighed, "They really are a family of scholars."
"Don't waste time here." Zhou Yizi urged, "If you don't leave now, you'll be late."
"Go, go, go, hurry up!"
The four people followed Wang Fu to Huisheng Road and asked Wang Fu, "Are you sure it's No. 32 Huisheng Road?"
"That's what Han Xing told me." Wang Fu replied.
"You must have remembered it wrong." Zhou Yi, if the content is displayed incorrectly, please go to the original site t-u-9-3 to read the book. Wooden Sword. Qin Guanyu said.
