Chapter 382: Xu Damao Schemes in Secret

He Yuzhu handed a letter to Secretary Liu and said, "The Bald Party saw that the situation for the United Nations Forces on the Korean War battlefield was unfavorable and worried that they would be beaten after the war ended... So, they sent several batches of people over to cause destruction in Si Jiu Cheng. The operation code name is 'Waking of Insects'..."

He relayed everything that Liu Rusi had told him.

Tian Dan frowned slightly and said, "Zhuzi, I hope you can join us temporarily. Your sensory abilities are very important to us!"

He Yuzhu nodded: "The winter break is almost over, and I still have to go back to Huaqing University for classes. It's not easy for you to find me, so why don't you have a telephone installed in my house?"

Tian Dan laughed and scolded: "You brat, you make demands every time!"

He Yuzhu explained with a smile: "How is this a demand? It's for your convenience!"

Secretary Liu chimed in from the side: "Xiao He is right; I will handle this matter."

The two of them drove away after dropping He Yuzhu back at the Siheyuan.

Yan Bugui's eyes went wide when he saw He Yuzhu moving more than 10 large suitcases into the house. He leaned in and asked, "Zhuzi, I haven't seen you for quite a few days. Where have you been?"

He Yuzhu smiled: "My unit sent me on a business trip to the south."

"What's in the boxes? Let Third Master have a look!"

"They are all things that Yushui and the others' teacher entrusted me to bring for a few children. I don't know exactly what they are either. Didn't you see that every box is locked?" He Yuzhu replied.

Seeing that he couldn't get any benefits, Yan Bugui curled his lip and turned back to his room.

He Yushui and the other little girls had been learning to sing at the Children's Palace all winter break, and they hadn't returned yet.

Shen Guizhi held He Yuzhu's hand and said, "Zhuzi, you're finally back. Your uncle is getting married in a while, and I'm worried about what to prepare for him. What good goods did you bring back this time? I need to pick out a few things for him."

"What does my uncle's partner do?" He Yuzhu asked.

"I heard she is a secretary at the Cultural Bureau."

"My uncle must be abusing his power for personal gain. Is she very young?"

"You little brat, don't talk nonsense! That woman's husband died; she seems to be 28 years old!" Shen Guizhi said.

"When are they planning to hold the ceremony?"

"They want to do it on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month!" Shen Guizhi said.

He Yuzhu nodded, "An elder sister is like a mother; handle it well for him. I'll give you the contents of these two boxes... just give whatever is suitable to my uncle."

"What about the other boxes?" Shen Guizhi asked.

He Yuzhu said: "I ran into Teacher Xiao Zhang in Hong Kong. She is doing well, so she prepared a box of gifts for each of the four girls, including Yushui."

Shen Guizhi nodded: "This Teacher Xiao Zhang is really thoughtful!"

He Yuzhu did not tell Shen Guizhi about his relationship with Zhang Shuying, guessing that she would most likely not be able to accept it.

Not long after, Ershuan rode a tricycle back with the four little girls.

Yan Bugui leaned over and said, "He Yushui, your brother is back, and he brought you a lot of good things!"

Upon hearing this, He Yushui ran into the room quickly. Seeing the eight large boxes, her eyes lit up: "Brother, what good things did you bring me?"

He Yuzhu pulled the four boxes over and said, "I ran into your Teacher Xiao Zhang in Hong Kong. Take a look at the photos."

He handed the photos to the four little girls and said, "Don't you ever say that I was the one who drove her away again. She is living a wonderful life over there."

Looking at the tidy apartment and beautiful furniture behind Zhang Shuying, He Yushui said enviously, "Teacher Zhang's home is so beautiful, the sofa is beautiful, and the flowers are beautiful..."

Xiaomi also leaned in and said, "You can even see the sea outside the window, it's so nice!"

Dahua said, "Teacher Zhang is dressed so beautifully!"

"Don't just look at the photos, don't you want to see what the teacher bought for you?" He Yuzhu said.

Only then did the little girls realize they hadn't looked at the gifts yet. They each found their own box and saw the locks hanging on them.

"But how do we open these boxes!" Xiaoqi fiddled with the small lock.

He Yuzhu took the keys out of his pocket and opened them one by one.

Immediately, a chorus of "Wow!" and "Wow!" exclamations rang out in the room.

They tried on the little clothes, peeled the candy wrappers, and played with the new toys... The house suddenly became lively.

Meanwhile, outside the Siheyuan, a scheme was quietly unfolding.

Yan Jiefang pulled Xu Damao aside to complain: "Brother Damao, you have to help me! That brat Liu Guangtian wrestles with me every day. But with his build, I can't beat him at all. I told my brother, and he said it's a kid's business and he won't get involved. Brother Damao, you have many ideas, think of a way for me, I want to fix him once too!"

Xu Damao's eyes rolled, and he said, "For your brother's sake, I'll reveal a secret to you. As long as you spread this, I guarantee it will make Liu Guangtian unable to hold his head up in front of you for the rest of his life!"

"What secret?" Yan Jiefang's eyes sparkled.

"Liu Guangtian, he still wets the bed every day! He draws a map every night!" Xu Damao said maliciously.

"What! He's almost ten years old and still wets the bed? But how come I haven't heard..."

"If his family told you he wets the bed, how would he find a wife later? I think Liu Guangtian's little bird isn't working right!" Xu Damao said sinisterly.

"His dad is always beating him, could it be because he keeps wetting the bed?" Yan Jiefang asked curiously.

"That's exactly it! A teacher's son is different; you can draw inferences!" Xu Damao gave a thumbs up.

"Brother, how do you know?" Yan Jiefang asked.

"One day, I passed by his door and overheard it. I heard his parents discussing wanting to find a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to treat his illness..."

"Damn! This is big news! I'm going to go humiliate him right now!" Yan Jiefang took off running.

But he was grabbed by Xu Damao: "Are you stupid, kid? If you tell him directly, he'll kill you! You need to make up a jingle so that even if he knows you're talking about him, he can't talk back."

Yan Jiefang said: "Can it be done like that? But I don't know how to make up a jingle!"

"I'll make it up for you, but you have to remember, don't say I made it up." Xu Damao pondered for a moment and said, "Bed-wetting king, truly great, sleeps until the sun is high, the bedding is wet and chillingly cold! Hey! Chillingly cold!"

Yan Jiefang laughed "hehe" after hearing it and ran toward the street.

Xu Damao narrowed his eyes and curled the corners of his mouth.

He sauntered into the Zhongyuan, saw that the He Family home was very lively, curled his lip, and walked toward his own room with his hands behind his back.

Just as Xu Damao stepped into his house, he was stopped by Cui Xiu: "Damao, help me send some things to Luo Jiangtao at the prison tomorrow."

Xu Damao curled his lip: "Dog spy! I'm not going to see him!"

Cui Xiu cursed: "You little brat! Is my word no longer good? If I didn't have something to do tomorrow, would I even need you? If we miss this chance, we'll have to wait another three months."

Xu Damao shook his head like a rattle-drum: "Mother, I hate these damn secret agents the most! For this matter, you should just let Xu Xiaoyun go!"

"Get out of here!" Cui Xiu was so angry her eyes glared.

"I'm leaving, so what's the big deal!" Before Xu Damao had even finished speaking, he had already turned and walked out the door.

Cui Xiu slammed a teacup onto the ground with all her might.

Early the next morning, someone came to the door to install a telephone.

When Yan Bugui heard that the He Family was installing a telephone, he hurried over at a trot to the Zhongyuan and knocked on the He Family's door.

"Shen Guizhi, the people from the telephone bureau are here to install a phone for your family, hurry up and receive them."

Shen Guizhi looked bewildered: "Daqing didn't tell me anything? Why are they here to install a phone?"

He Yushui then said: "Maybe it was Brother who had it installed."

Shen Guizhi finally understood, hurried toward the East Cross Courtyard, and knocked hard on the door: "Zhuzi, get up quickly!"

He Yuzhu was startled awake from his sleep: "Mother, what happened?"

"Someone is here to install a telephone for our family, what should we do?"

"You don't have to do anything! Just let them install it!" He Yuzhu said, then went back to sleep.

"Get up quickly, I don't know where to tell them to install it!" Shen Guizhi continued to knock on the door.

He Yuzhu had no choice but to get up, and by the time he finished watching them install the telephone, it was already near noon.

He dialed Tian Dan's number directly, and Tian Dan happened to be there.

"Come over quickly, we discovered a suspect on the train from Guangzhou to Beijing who might be someone from the 'Waking of Insects' operation."

"So fast!" He Yuzhu said in surprise.

"Come over quickly!" Tian Dan urged.
