Get something in the courtyard

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Xu Damao's words were like dropping a 200-kilogram bomb on the courtyard.

The situation that Yi Zhonghai least wants to see is Sha Zhu moving away.

Although Wang Kun's move made him happy, he was also very worried. He was afraid that Sha Zhu would follow Wang Kun's example and leave the courtyard. Because once Sha Zhu moved away, he would not be able to fool him.

"What did you say?"

In excitement, Yi Zhonghai stood up suddenly. He was sitting on a long bench, and Qin Huairu was sitting on the other side. He stood up too quickly, and Qin Huairu didn't react in time, lost her balance, and fell directly.

Qin Huairu, who fell to the ground, had no time to pretend to be aggrieved and seek sympathy. She stood up quickly and stared at Xu Damao.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Sha Zhu's home is here, how can he move out? If he moves out, will he be worthy of the neighbors in the yard?"

Xu Damao said angrily: "Who is talking nonsense? I saw Shazhu today. He and Guo Xianghong took the children to another courtyard. If he didn't move out, why didn't he come back for so many days?"

Yi Zhonghai's eyes were bloodshot and red. He left the table involuntarily and stared at Xu Damao: "You are telling the truth."

When Xu Damao saw Yi Zhonghai like this, he was so scared that he took several steps back and only felt a little relieved when he held on to a pillar beside him.

"Of course what I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Sha Zhu."

The anger in Yi Zhonghai's heart continued to burn, and he had accumulated too much anger and had nowhere to vent it.

He ran to Shazhu's house angrily and kicked his door several times, shouting, "Why are you moving out? Why are you moving out? I have been teaching you since you were young, why don't you listen to me?"

You unfilial thing, I will beat you to death."

Fortunately, He Yushui had reinforced the door of Sha Zhu's house several times, and after Sha Zhu brought his wife back, he reinforced it several more times. Otherwise, with Yi Zhonghai's strength, the door would have been kicked down long ago.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui saw that something was wrong and hurried forward to hug Yi Zhonghai.

One of them shouted to Yi Zhonghai: "Old Yi, calm down."

Another one shouted to Xu Damao: "What are you still standing there for? Come and help us."

Xu Damao had mixed feelings about Sha Zhu's move. On the one hand, he wished Sha Zhu would leave, but on the other hand, he was jealous that Sha Zhu could get a house.

He was so busy at home thinking about how to take revenge on Sha Zhu that he forgot to tell anyone about this.

But he never expected that Yi Zhonghai would go crazy after hearing the news.

Looking at the crazy Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao was a little scared. Others didn't know Yi Zhonghai's insidiousness, but he knew it very well. He didn't want to be a tool for Yi Zhonghai to vent his anger.

When he heard the call, he not only did not move forward, but instead took several steps back and hid in the corner.

On this side, Yi Zhonghai was still kicking Sha Zhu's door angrily, and one of the glass pieces fell off due to the vibration.

Yan Bugui saw that things were not going well and quickly turned to look at Qin Huairu. If there was anyone in the courtyard who could persuade Yi Zhonghai, it was only Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu at this moment, her eyes were dull, and she looked extremely lost. The last time she felt so lost was when Sha Zhu brought his wife back to Siheyuan. That time she felt betrayed by Sha Zhu. He had promised to be a workhorse for her family for the rest of his life, so why should he rely on others? They were both widows, how could she be worse than Guo Xianghong. In terms of appearance, she was once the most beautiful woman in Siheyuan, and even in the steel rolling mill; in terms of affection, when she married into Siheyuan, Sha Zhu was still a half-grown young man, and the two could be considered childhood sweethearts; in terms of temperament, she was even better than Guo Xianghong by several streets.

Why would Sha Zhu betray him?

"Qin Huairu, don't just stand there, hurry up and try to persuade Old Yi."

After hearing Yan Bugui's cry, Qin Huairu clenched his fists tightly and said to himself, don't think you can get rid of them by moving away.

"Uncle, calm down. Shazhu's house is still here. He will come back sooner or later."

Qin Huairu's words really worked. After hearing them, Yi Zhonghai quickly calmed down. He stared deeply at Sha Zhu's room, snorted, and returned to the dining table.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui both breathed a sigh of relief. They were really worried that Yi Zhonghai might do something bad.

Yan Bugui glanced at Sha Zhu's house and said to Liu Haizhong, "Old Liu, quickly help Sha Zhu fix the broken glass. If his wife finds out, we'll be in trouble."

Liu Haizhong sighed and said, "I have a piece of plastic sheet at home. Bring it over to block the hole first. Tomorrow, ask someone to go to the steel mill and tell Sha Zhu to come back and fix the glass."

When he returned to the backyard, he saw Xu Damao sitting in the yard, so he said, "I asked you to come over to help just now, why did you run away?"

Xu Damao didn't feel embarrassed at all: "Second uncle, this is not my fault. The first uncle looked like he wanted to eat me. He and I have never gotten along since we were young, and I'm worried that he will take revenge on me."

"you."

Liu Haizhong couldn't blame Xu Damao. Yi Zhonghai had always disliked Xu Damao, and Xu Damao's bad reputation in the hospital had a lot to do with Yi Zhonghai.

He had a good relationship with Xu Damao and didn't want to offend Xu Damao for Yi Zhonghai.

"You. The fact that Shazhu left was a huge blow to Lao Yi."

Xu Damao pouted and said, "He deserves it. Who told him to deliberately trick Sha Zhu for Qin Huairu? It's just that Sha Zhu is stupid. If it were me, I would have sent him to jail long ago."

Liu Haizhong shook his head: "Just say these words in front of me, don't say them in front of Lao Yi. Do you know that Lao Yi made up his mind in 1965 to let Sha Zhu take care of him in his old age. He is almost 70 years old now. What will he do if Sha Zhu leaves?"

Xu Damao was even more disdainful and retorted: "Second Uncle, you have been deceived by him again. It is true that he wants to find someone to take care of the elderly. But that person is definitely not Sha Zhu. He has tricked Sha Zhu so much that he can't find a wife. Is that the attitude of looking for someone to take care of the elderly?
Shazhu, that's the old ox he found for Qin Huairu to pull the mill."

Liu Haizhong disagreed with Xu Damao's words and said, "Don't spread rumors. It was the deaf old lady's idea to let Sha Zhu take care of Old Yi in his old age. Old Yi investigated Sha Zhu for many years and finally decided at the end of 1965. He told me this when we had a heart-to-heart talk when my family got into trouble last time."

Xu Damao had talked to Wang Kun about this matter back then. Combining his own understanding, he understood Yi Zhonghai's plan.

"Second uncle, can I still lie to you? The deaf old lady and him fooled Sha Zhu for more than ten years, why did they only confirm Sha Zhu at the end of 1965? Let me tell you, it's because Sha Zhu's reputation was ruined. Have you forgotten the incident when I lost the chicken?
Shazhu wants to take the blame for Banggeng. If he has a reputation as a chicken thief, will he be able to find a wife in the future? By then, Shazhu will be like him, a family without a son. That's why he decided to take care of Shazhu.

Otherwise, do you think that with his methods, he could have made things like that for you and Uncle Sanye?
You must have been deceived by him."

After saying this, Xu Damao went back to the house in a leisurely manner, leaving his bangs confused, not knowing who to believe.

This was exactly what he didn't understand.

Yi Zhonghai has always been trying to trick Shazhu. If it weren't for the deaf old lady mediating, the relationship between the two would have been ruined long ago. (End of this chapter)
