Du Sen naturally went with her.
As for the two children, he asked Du Feng to take care of them first.
After they left, Li Xu said a few more words to Du Feng before saying goodbye and leaving.
...
Two more days passed.
Morning.
Li Mei and Li Jiakang arrived at the gate of Wuhan University. Li Mei then reported the name of a teacher, lied that she was the teacher's relative, and asked the gatekeeper to call someone.
Not long after, they saw a figure walking towards them in a hurry. When the other person walked in front of Li Mei and saw the two people's faces clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy and he opened his mouth to call for help.
But before he could utter a word, Li Mei called out, "Uncle, you're finally here. We have something to talk to you about. Can we go somewhere where it's easier for us to talk?"
Hearing this, the other party was stunned again, but quickly reacted and responded quickly, "No problem, follow me."
Then the other party took Li Mei and the other person to a secluded corner outside the school and asked, "Li Mei, didn't you go back to your hometown? Why are you here now? And you say you are my relative?"
"Teacher Xue, I have something to talk to you about. It's inconvenient to write to you, so I have to come over. By the way, how is Teacher Chen?"
Teacher Xue sighed and said, "He passed away."
Although she was mentally prepared, Li Mei couldn't help but see her eyes turn red.
Seeing her like this, Teacher Xue comforted her, "Think positively. In Lao Chen's situation, living is suffering, and dying is a relief."
Li Mei nodded, took a deep breath, introduced Li Jiakang and Teacher Xue to each other, and asked Li Jiakang to stand further away to keep watch for the two of them.
Then she got to the point and asked, "Teacher Xue, have you heard that the higher-ups are planning to launch a new campaign?"
"It's more than just hearsay," Teacher Xue said with a bitter expression. "Right now, all the students in school are joining an organization called the Red Guards. Their goal is to support this movement and overthrow the capitalist ruling clique."
Li Mei was stunned for a moment, then said unhappily, "Instead of studying hard, they're getting involved in this. I think they just have too much free time. Teacher Xue, you should talk to the school leaders and ask them to take care of these people."
"We can't do anything about it. The root of the problem isn't with us, it's up there."
"What do you mean?"
"Didn't you read today's newspaper?"
“No.”
"The newspaper said that the Middle School affiliated with Shuimu University established a Red Guard organization yesterday, and they hope that students from universities and middle schools across the country will follow suit. Do you understand now?"
Li Mei suddenly felt a chill spreading from her bones, making her hands and feet cold.
Now she knew who was behind this campaign.
As a former student, she is very familiar with the situation of the student group. Not only are they easily instigated, but they are also prone to doing things that are out of line.
To put it simply, it is extremely destructive.
Thinking of this, she quickly said, "I understand, Teacher Xue. Since you know about this, let me make it short. My family and I have seen from the name of this movement that teachers like you might be at risk, so we've come here specifically to remind you. Put up portraits of great men at home, wear their badges, keep the Little Red Book in your hands, and recite their sayings. This might save your lives."
Teacher Xue never expected that Li Mei came for this matter, and even thought of a solution.
This moved him deeply, but also shocked him a little.
You have to know that these teachers only realized that they might be in danger after reading today's newspaper, but Li Mei and her family could tell it just by a name. How can this not be shocking?
"Li Mei, I've got what you said. I'll do as you say when I get back."
I don't know if this method will work, but it's worth a try.
The teachers had discussed for so long before, but they hadn't come up with a single idea.
So you might as well try this, it's better to try it out than to sit and wait for death.
"Teacher Xue, to avoid attracting attention, I can only ask you to come out alone. Please go back and tell the other teachers about this method and say that this idea was yours."
Teacher Xue knew her concerns and quickly said, "Don't worry, I'll tell them when I get back."
Li Mei nodded, then showed a serious expression, "Teacher Xue, this matter is of great importance. You must keep your mouth shut and don't leak it casually."
This made Teacher Xue stunned. Is there something more important?
When he came to his senses, he said, "Okay, you say."
"If one day you can't hold on any longer, see if you can apply to be transferred to Tang County, saying you're going to labor reform. I'll make arrangements for you then, and maybe I can help you avoid blame."
Teacher Xue was so shocked that he couldn't even speak clearly. "Are you going to risk your entire fortune...your entire fortune, your life?"
"You are all talented people. It would be a shame to waste them in vain."
This sentence was enough to express her feelings. Teacher Xue's eyes instantly turned redder than hers, and then he pointed to the sky and swore, "I, Xue Weizhong, swear to the heavens that if you let this matter slip, my entire family, young and old, will die a miserable death, and my ancestors will never rest in peace in the underworld."
Li Mei didn't stop him. Instead, she waited until he finished swearing before saying, "Teacher Xue, I believe you, but you must remember that you must only tell them when they really can't hold on any longer. And you can't all go at once. There should be a period of time between each visit, and the number of people should not be too large. If you can't hold on any longer, tell this matter to the person you trust most, and let him take over, and then you can go."
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
