Siheyuan: A pioneer of morality

With Sha Zhu's return to the courtyard, the whole courtyard seemed to be in a weird atmosphere.

After Sha Zhu came back, the deaf old lady finally had a long-term meal ticket.

For two meals a day, the deaf old lady was more active than anyone else.

Every morning, as soon as the sky got bright, the deaf old lady was already strolling in the yard with a cane. She was afraid that Sha Zhu and his sister would eat breakfast secretly and leave her behind.

At night, it was even more convenient.

The deaf old lady appeared in the middle courtyard on time every day half an hour before Sha Zhu got off work.

Whenever she appeared at the gate of the middle courtyard with a small stool, the women who were originally chatting together would look at her with disgust, but the deaf old lady turned a blind eye to it.

The deaf old lady seemed to have given up. It was better to be disliked than to be hungry!

Anyway, after her identity as a landlord's wife was pulled out, she had become "disliked by everyone". She was used to being despised a few more times.

Faced with such a shameless deaf old lady, the neighbors in the courtyard were also shocked.

"Is this really the old lady who was respected before?"

"This person is simply a complete rogue!"

The neighbors talked about it, but the deaf old lady pretended to be deaf and dumb, as if she couldn't hear anything.

But He Yushui and Sha Zhu's ears were not deaf, and within a few days, these gossips reached the ears of the brother and sister.

After learning about the deaf old lady's behavior, Sha Zhu and his sister's faces instantly became ugly.

That night, after dinner, when the deaf old lady left, He Yushui couldn't wait to grab Sha Zhu.

"Sha brother, how long do you plan to let the deaf old lady eat and drink here?"

Hearing He Yushui's unfriendly questioning, Sha Zhu was a little panicked. He didn't dare to tell He Yushui that the reason he agreed to take in the deaf old lady was entirely because the deaf old lady agreed to help him take down Qin Huairu.

Since he learned the truth about He Daqing's departure, and the increasingly rogue behavior of the deaf old lady recently, Sha Zhu has lost his patience with the deaf old lady.

The "good grandmother" who was originally kind and amiable in his heart now feels very hateful no matter how he looks at her.

But even so, Sha Zhu is still suppressing his discomfort.

No matter what, he wants to take Qin Huairu first, and then turn against the deaf old lady.

Unfortunately, the facts are always so cruel. Since the last incident of Xu Damao being abolished, Qin Huairu has never come to the courtyard again.

Sha Zhu once asked Wen Li about Qin Huairu's whereabouts in a roundabout way, but the feedback he got was that Wen Li didn't even pay attention to him.

Facing the questioning of his own sister, Sha Zhu still didn't want to give up easily. He moved his lips, but couldn't make a sound.

Seeing his appearance, He Yushui angrily scolded: "Silly brother, what do you want to do? Can you tell me directly? I am your biological sister, am I not as good as an outsider?"

As He Yushui spoke, tears unconsciously slid down her cheeks.

Seeing Yushui's heartbroken look, Sha Zhu gritted his teeth, and finally sighed, lowered his head and said nothing.

Whether in the original drama or in the world after Zhou Jianjun traveled through. Sha Zhu's various performances have proved that He Yushui, the biological sister, is far less important than Qin Huairu, the goddess, in Sha Zhu's heart.

Seeing that Sha Zhu still refused to speak, He Yushui said coldly "OK", then rushed out of the door and went straight to Zhou Jianjun's house.

At this moment, He Yushui felt that she had been completely abandoned by Sha Zhu.

In this courtyard, the only person she could think of was Zhou Jianjun.

"Brother Jianjun!"

He Yushui pushed open the door, threw herself into Zhou Jianjun's arms, and burst into tears.

Her action confused Zhou Jianjun and Wen Li, who were eating.

Wen Li looked at He Yushui carefully, then pointed in the direction of the He family in the middle courtyard, making an inquiring expression.

Zhou Jianjun pouted, then nodded vigorously.

"Yushui, tell me, did your brother bully you again?"

Hearing Zhou Jianjun's question, He Yushui raised her head, stared at Zhou Jianjun with tears in her eyes and said, "Brother Jianjun... my brother... he refused to tell me why he helped the deaf old lady."

"Ah! Silly child."

Zhou Jianjun gently touched He Yushui's head, and then said earnestly, "He can only hide it from you. In fact, many people in the yard know why he took in the deaf old lady."

"Ah? What is the reason, Brother Jianjun, tell me quickly!"

"He did it for Qin Huairu. The deaf old lady must have fooled your brother and said that she could help your brother catch up with Qin Huairu. So, your brother took in the deaf old lady no matter what."

Speaking of this, Zhou Jianjun suddenly changed the subject and deliberatelyHe provoked, "I didn't expect that your silly brother would disregard your feelings in order to get Qin Huairu."

"Yushui, you should be careful in everything in the future, and don't listen to your brother in everything."

Hearing Zhou Jianjun's words, He Yushui suddenly felt an inexplicable anger in his heart, "He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu! You are really my good brother, but for an outsider, you don't care about my feelings at all."

After cursing Shazhu in his heart, He Yushui looked at Zhou Jianjun in confusion and asked, "Brother Jianjun, what should I do?"

"Well..." Zhou Jianjun pretended to think for a while, and then slowly said, "Look at your brother like this, if he doesn't give up, he will probably keep holding Qin Huairu."

Speaking of this, Zhou Jianjun sneered and continued "But it's useless for him to be so eager! Qin Huairu doesn't like him at all. No matter how hard he tries to curry favor with her, it will probably be useless."

"In that case, go back and tell your brother that Qin Huairu is married and let him give up."

After the words fell, He Yushui stared at Zhou Jianjun with wide eyes and stammered, "Brother Jianjun, is this... is this really okay?"

"Why not?" Zhou Jianjun showed a playful smile, "Only in this way can your brother completely let go of Qin Huairu."

Speaking of this, Zhou Jianjun suddenly teased, "Maybe even if this is the case, your brother will continue to be obsessed with Qin Huairu."

"Is this really okay?" He Yushui seemed to be a little hesitant.

"Listen to me, just say so. If your brother asks you later, just say that I told you."

He Yushui looked at Zhou Jianjun uncertainly for a few times, then nodded cautiously and agreed: "Okay, I'll tell my brother that. I want to see what he can do after knowing that Sister Qin got married."

After the voice fell, He Yushui struggled to get up from Zhou Jianjun's arms.

It was not until then that she realized how ambiguous the posture of the two was just now.

She blushed and glanced at Wen Li who was sitting next to her carefully, and whispered: "Brother Jianjun, Sister-in-law Wenli, then I'll go back first."

"Go ahead, go ahead, the sooner you say it, the sooner it will be resolved." Zhou Jianjun waved his hand nonchalantly.

After He Yushui left, Wen Li looked at Zhou Jianjun in confusion and asked: "Do you have a grudge against the deaf old lady?"

"No grudge in the past, but resentment today." Zhou Jianjun said without thinking.

"Is it that serious?" Wen Li curled her lips, seeming to be very unhappy with Zhou Jianjun's behavior.

"She dared to help Sha Zhu snatch my wife, what else do you want from me? I can't repay evil with kindness! The most I can do is not to offend others unless they offend me!"

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say. Anyway, I hate that old lady too."
