Only then did the landlord truly take Tie Ge's words to heart. He took the money, wrote a receipt, left the guesthouse's phone number, and then rode off on his beloved bicycle to look for accommodation.
Maotou found Yan Xiaonan's classroom, stood near the back of the front door, and peered into the classroom through the glass in the door. His eyes swept around the classroom and then locked onto Yan Xiaonan.
Just as he was about to call for help, Ah Long stopped him. Ah Long had only remembered Yan Xiaonan after seeing her. He told Mao Tou that disturbing Yan Xiaonan now would cause her trouble, and that the young girl's reputation was very important.
Having been away from home for so long, Mao Tou had long forgotten all about such things. Hearing his cousin's reminder, he was so shocked that sweat poured down his face. He had been too reckless. If Bei Nan found out that he had unintentionally ruined Yan Xiao Nan's reputation, he would definitely not rest until he had a broken arm.
The two left quickly. Ah Long had a great idea that would let Yan Xiaonan know they were coming, but would also prevent gossip: they would go to the local police station and use Bei Nan's name to find someone.
The identity of an overseas Chinese was very useful. As soon as Maotou opened his mouth, he said that he was representing Bei Nan to find his family. The police quickly asked which family he was looking for and what their names were. Maotou cleverly said the name Yan Xiaoqiang.
The names Yan Xiaoqiang and Yan Daqiang differ by only one character. The police immediately guessed that they had found Yan Jiang's family. However, to prevent a misunderstanding, the police still had Maotou recite the names of Yan Xiaoqiang's entire family.
Mao Tou was a little dizzy. He could only remember Yan Xiaonan, and Southwest, and Southeast too. Mao Tou kept recalling, but the police had already confirmed that they were looking for Yan Jiang's family.
They immediately dispatched a police officer to look for Yan Xiaoqiang at the courtyard house. If he wasn't at the courtyard house, he must be at the general store or clothing store near the school. The Yan family's general store and clothing store are now famous.
The police officers rode their bicycles and sped towards the courtyard. The Yan family was very polite. Whenever they came to the house on official business, Grandma Yan and Aunt Yan would politely offer them candy or snacks. Although they insisted on not taking a single needle or thread from the people, they couldn't resist Grandma Yan's politeness and would still offer them a cup of malted milk or something.
As expected, the Yan family's house was locked up tight. Thinking about it, it made sense; it was the weekend, and it would be a waste of good time not to do business. He turned around and headed towards Beijing University, wondering whether to look for Yan Xiaoqiang first or Yan's grandmother.
The final decision was to find Yan Xiaoqiang, since Grandma Yan is old and can't be frightened, nor can she be surprised.
The Yan family's fashion store was packed with people, and the general store was also bustling with activity. Taking advantage of their day off, everyone came out to stroll around and see what good things were available to buy.
As October arrives, jackets and batwing shirts start to sell well, and Lenin suits and Western suits are already in short supply. Yan Xiaonan is already considering winter cotton-padded coats and cashmere overcoats.
The original purchase quota of 10,000 yuan per person was no longer enough, but thanks to Ye Chenming's help, Yan Xiaonan earned 150,000 yuan from rice and cotton last month. Apart from keeping 50,000 yuan as working capital, the rest of the money was transferred to Yan Ge's account.
Cuihua was tidying her clothes when Yan Xiaoqiang rushed in: "Mother, Mother, Cuihua, there's news from Beinan."
Grandma Yan stood up abruptly and asked anxiously, "Where is Bei Nan?"
Upon hearing Yan Xiaoqiang's words, Cuihua disregarded the clothes in her hands and hurriedly asked, "Qiangzi, where is Beinan?"
"Mom, Cuihua, do you remember Bei Nan's good friend named Mao Tou who's been staying at our house for a few days? Is it the one I asked his older brother to come and pick him up from the county town?" Yan Xiaoqiang asked.
Grandma Yan and Cuihua certainly remembered that it was because of Maotou that Beinan was implicated and their house was ransacked. The most frightening thing was that Nannan was in a coma for a month and all her hair turned white. It was Zhongnan and Jingubang who found a thousand-year-old ginseng to save her.
"That brat is here, but has Bei Nan returned yet?" Grandma Yan was concerned about Bei Nan.
"Mom, I don't know either. The police officers are outside. Let's go take a look together." Yan Xiaoqiang helped Grandma Yan walk outside.
"Wang Mei, can you watch the shop for me? I'll go check it out and be right back." Grandma Yan turned around and greeted Grandma Wang, who nodded repeatedly, "Go quickly, go quickly."
The three of them followed the police officers to the police station. As soon as they opened the door, Mao Tou stood up excitedly, and A Long also looked at Yan Xiaoqiang, whom he vaguely recognized.
"Grandma, Uncle and Aunt, I'm Maotou, do you remember me?"
Grandma Yan shook her head, and Cuihua was also stunned. Only Yan Xiaoqiang vaguely remembered: "You were a little boy, and in the blink of an eye you've grown into a man, even taller than me. Where's Bei Nan?"
"Uncle, can we find a place to talk?" Maotou looked around.
Yan Xiaoqiang nodded repeatedly, feeling confused. It was definitely inappropriate to say these things here.
Ah Long also ran over to greet Yan Xiaoqiang. Yan Xiaoqiang did remember Ah Long, since Ah Long was already an adult at that time.
Mao Tou thanked the police officers for their great help. They were so grateful that he was able to find his relatives so quickly. To express his gratitude, he brought out the three bicycles that he had prepared beforehand.
"This is our support for your work from the overseas Chinese community. You must accept it."
It was Ah Long's suggestion to send bicycles. In just a few days, Ah Long learned that the Public Security Bureau currently only had a few bicycles and one motorcycle, and its means of transportation were still quite lacking.
I've already decided to buy a house here, and I'll definitely have to deal with these people in the future, so it's necessary to be on their good side as soon as possible. It's just a matter of three bicycles and a few hundred yuan.
The officers at the Public Security Bureau wanted to refuse, but they couldn't bear to. The bureau's budget was tight, and they didn't have enough transportation. It would be really troublesome in case of an emergency. They quickly notified the bureau chief, as this was a matter that required his approval.
Upon hearing the good news, the bureau chief rushed out and shook Maotou's hand: "Thank you for your support of our work. We will definitely serve the people more diligently and work harder."
Maotou quickly shook his head: "It's everyone's responsibility to benefit the country and its people."
The director had the clerk prepare the donation receipt, affix the unit's official seal, and handed it to Maotou, expressing his gratitude once again. Maotou repeatedly waved his hand, saying, "You're too kind."
Yan Xiaoqiang watched Mao Tou's every move from the side, his eyes reflecting on Bei Nan. Bei Nan must have grown up so much, and become so worldly and sophisticated.
"Uncle, Uncle, let's go." Yan Xiaoqiang's train of thought was interrupted by Mao Tou, bringing him back to his senses.
