In the blink of an eye, a month and a half had passed. Ya Shuo's injuries were almost healed, and his physical strength was gradually recovering. He was young and had a good foundation, so he recovered very quickly. In the past one and a half months, although he didn't find out the background of these people, he had gained the most basic trust from them. It could be seen from Zhang Lin's care for him and his brothers taking turns to stay up late to brew the medicine without any complaints. Next, Ya Shuo had to find an opportunity to open the screw under the table. Once a person had a goal, he would always look for an opportunity.
One day, the steamed bun shop was open for business as usual. When Yashuo saw that it was Friday, he knew that the shop would be very busy the next two weekends. Therefore, according to Zhang Lin's habit, he sent someone to ride a bicycle to stock up on Friday afternoon. Ya Shuo had never delivered goods before. This time, he volunteered to learn. Zhang Lin thought about it and agreed. He gave Ya Shuo a piece of paper with the address and list of goods on it. Ya Shuo rode his bicycle and left.
Zhang Lin was worried that Yashuo was a newcomer and the shop owner would make things difficult for him. He was also afraid that the bicycle would not be able to carry too many things, so he sent a few workers to the entrance of the alley to welcome him. After about an hour, Yashuo returned, covered in dirt and looking disheveled. He pushed the bicycle with some pork and vegetables tied to the back seat and limped towards the entrance of the alley.
Big Farmer, who was waiting for Ya Shuo at the entrance of the alley, saw him and quickly went forward to welcome him."What's wrong, Brother Yashuo?"
"On the way back, I was trying to avoid a truck, so I lost control of the handle and fell.”
"What? Are you alright? I see you're limping. Are you injured? The injury on your back has just healed, but it will take another 100 days for your tendons and bones to recover.”
"It's not that serious. It's just a scratch on my knee. I'll be fine with some medicine. However, the bike's handles were a little stiff from the fall, so he felt a little sorry.”
"Don't say that. It's good that you're fine. I'll help you back.”
"Help me push the cart. I can walk alone.”
"You can? Alright, I'll push the cart. Walk slowly. I'll go back and tell them.”
"Go ahead."
The farmer quickly rode his bike through the alley to the entrance of the shop. Yashuo limped slowly behind him. The farmer put down the bike and called the farmer who was cleaning up the dishes in the house," Hurry up and carry the Yashuo brothers back."”
Ya Shuo was carried onto the brick bed by Sannong. He took out hot water, a towel, alcohol, and medicine. After wiping it, he applied medicine. Ya Shuo said that he had crooked the handle and felt sorry. He wanted to repair it. Sannong said that this small matter would be done by others. Ya Shuo said that he did not agree and emphasized that he would take responsibility for it. In any case, he had to repair it himself. Sannong could not persuade him. He said that it was already late and he would do it tomorrow morning. Ya Shuo said that there would be a lot of guests for dinner tomorrow, so he could fix it tonight with the help of the lights. He asked Sannong to find a screwdriver for him.
Sannong was born as a farmer and had not studied for a few years. Naturally, he was not as eloquent and persuasive as Hao Yashuo. The reason why Sannong did not allow Yashuo to cultivate was that others could also cultivate. It was dark and he could not see clearly. Yashuo was injured. Ya Shuo's mouth could talk about the dead and the living. He first used his sense of responsibility and morality to prove that since the car was damaged by himself, it should be repaired by himself. Then, seeing that he could not convince the three rural farmers, he escalated this matter to ethics. He almost used superstition. He said that if he did not take responsibility for his own mistakes, he would be sent to the eighteenth level of hell. Could he bear to see him being fried in oil? Sannong had no choice but to take out a toolbox from his room without discussing it with Zhang Lin.
"This is the toolbox. All the tools are inside. Give them to me when you're done.”
"Okay, okay. Go do your work." Ya Shuo sent Sannong away and opened the toolbox. He used his experience to find a screwdriver that matched the screw at the bottom of the table. He hid it under his pillow and then carried the toolbox to the backyard where the bicycle was parked.
The backyard was behind the kitchen. He pulled out a wire from the kitchen and installed a light bulb. Although it was dark, he could still see clearly. Shuo adjusted the handle of the car and found a screwdriver to remove the screw. He muttered in his heart," It's not easy for me to get a screwdriver. I even lied and said that I fell down to avoid the truck. Sigh, I thought that it would be fine if I got covered in soil. Who knew that I would be so heroic? Unexpectedly, I even hurt my knee. I should learn from Qingfeng when I fall." Sigh, speaking of Azurepeak, I haven't seen him for more than a month. I don't know what he's busy with. I can't leave during this period of time, and I can't communicate with him about everything that has happened recently.”
"Brother, I heard that you fell and hurt yourself. Are you okay?”Zhang Lin entered the backyard.
"Big Brother, I'm fine. The car was crooked and I came to take a look.”
"I heard that you fell down. It was a little busy in front just now, so I quickly came over to take a look. Why did they ask you to repair the car? You should rest well.”
"It's not their fault. I wanted to fix it myself. See, it's fixed.”
Zhang Lin snatched the screwdriver from Ya Shuo's hand and said that he should rest quickly. Ya Shuo then walked away.
It was late at night, and the sound of a few men sleeping could be vaguely heard in the rooms. Yashuo was waiting for this moment. He gently closed the door and took out a screwdriver from under his pillow. He squatted down and stuck his head under the table. He aimed at the nut and felt that the size of the chosen screwdriver matched the size of the nut. When he unscrewed the nut, he felt a rectangular wooden board fall down. It was as if there was something heavy in the hole of the table pressing down on the wooden board. Yashuo quickly held it with his hand and felt that it was stable. Then, she slowly retracted her hand from under the table.
The heavy object on the wooden board appeared in front of Ya Shuo…
The heavy objects in Ya Shuo's hands were two books. The top one was the " The Manifest of the Communistic Party " with a yellowed cover, which was a must-read book for the cadre. The bottom one was very old and felt like it was about to be torn. It was " The Book of Cryptic Telegrams ". After flipping through a few pages, there were many squares inside. Each square had four Arabic digits corresponding to one Chinese character below. He instantly understood that Zhang Lin was the boss of this shop, so these things must belong to Zhang Lin. He was a party member who led these people to prepare for the war against Japan at all times. These two books were the best proof. Ya Shuo quickly put the book back into the hole in the table and screwed it back in. He did it flawlessly, but at this moment, he was no longer sleepy.
Turning off the light, he lay on the bed. The moonlight shone in through the window and shone on Ya Shuo's face. He stared at everything that had happened these days, recalling Zhang Lin's every move, thinking about who was fighting against the Japanese and who was working to earn money. He had a feeling that Big Farmer was definitely fighting against the Japanese, and so was Brother Beard. It was hard to say about the Liu brothers and Big Farmer's younger brothers. He couldn't figure out what was going on, so he didn't think about it anymore. He would find an excuse to take a day off tomorrow and go to Azurepeak.
The next morning, Ya Shuo told Zhang Lin that his leg had hurt all night last night. He was afraid that the wound would become inflamed, so he wanted to take a day off to go to the hospital. Zhang Lin agreed without thinking and arranged for Sannong to accompany him. Ya Shuo refused. The bun shop was busy on the weekend, so he left more people in the shop. Zhang Lin let him ride a bicycle.
After leaving the shop and turning out of the alley, Ya Shuo immediately threw the limping bicycle to the side and quickly rode his bicycle towards the Xia residence. The Xia Mansion was quite a distance away from the City God Temple. Ya Shuo went smoothly and arrived at the iron gate of the mansion. He got out of the car and knocked on the iron gate. He pressed the doorbell, but no one came out for a long time. Ya Shuo patiently pressed the doorbell a few times. He grabbed the iron gate and shook it. The iron gate made a sound.”but no one came out. Ya Shuo panicked and shouted at the villa in the courtyard," Xia Qingfeng, come out. I'm your second uncle, Hao Yashuo!"
Ya Shuo and Azurepeak had known each other for many years. He knew Azurepeak's family situation roughly. He knew that Azurepeak's father was the eldest, and there was a second aunt, third uncle, and fourth uncle below him. There was no second uncle. Therefore, every time Ya Shuo got angry, he would shout at Qing Feng,"I'm your second uncle, Hao Ya Shuo."”Azurepeak also felt that his second uncle was a virtual character. He didn't have a second uncle, and Ya Shuo was like this sometimes, so he didn't object.
Still, no one came out of the house. It was strange. Did he go out with his pretty sister again on the weekend? Xia Qingfeng started to flirt with her now that he had the company of a beauty. He kept saying that she was not serious and that he was just so-so. Sigh, they were all men after all. How could he be any better in front of a beauty? Ya Shuo didn't give up. He turned the car around and said to himself,"I don't believe I can't find you in a day."”He left the mansion on his bike.
He went to the Western-style coffee shop that Qingfeng frequented and a few restaurants, but he couldn't find him. Ya Shuo was a little puzzled. This wasn't like Qingfeng's style. He usually stayed in the coffee shop for a day. He used the phone at the front desk of the coffee shop to call the mansion, but no one answered. He must not be at home. Where could he be? Did he have to work on a Sunday? Thinking of this, Ya Shuo got into the car and went to the factory.
Azurepeak was not at the first two factories. When he found the third factory, he saw Uncle Wang coming out of the factory to take stock. Ya Shuo rushed forward. Uncle Wang, who was taking stock, accidentally looked up and saw a person standing in front of him. He couldn't help but be shocked.
"Uncle Wang, are you doing well?" Ya Shuo smiled.
"Aiya, Young Master Hao, you scared me. Haha, good, good. I've made you remember me.”
"Uncle Wang, is Azurepeak here? I've been looking for him for a day."
"Oh, Young Master Hao, you don't know. My Young Master and Young Miss have returned to their hometown.”
"What? Ya Shuo's mouth was wide open. He had only been back for half a year. Why did he go back?”
" Sigh, Young Master Hao, my Young Master has been busy at the factory these days. He planned to go back to take a look at the beginning of autumn, but…but…this…"
"But what? Uncle Wang, what's wrong?”Ya Shuo was surprised.
