Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

By the time Lin Shaowen had sent the letter and returned to the compound, the whole compound was in chaos.

Sha Zhu rode on Yi Zhonghai, grabbed his hair with one hand, and his fists rained down like raindrops.

"Old beast, do you know how Yu Shui and I have lived for so many years?"

"You dare to embezzle my money, you are looking for death."

"Xu Damao, bring me a knife."

...

Sha Zhu seemed to be really angry. When He Daqing left, he was not very old, let alone He Yushui.

He grew up relying on the help of neighbors. To put it nicely, he was eating at other people's homes, and to put it bluntly, he was living under someone else's roof. Fortunately, He Daqing left him two big houses, otherwise he would not even have a place to live.

"Zhu Zi, stop hitting me, listen to the explanation of the uncle first."

Auntie held Sha Zhu in tears.

"Explain? What's there to explain?" Sha Zhu said angrily, "My father sent me ten yuan every month for four years until I started working... One hundred and twenty yuan a year, four hundred and eighty yuan for four years, you have to spit out this money."

"Zhu Zi, don't listen to nonsense." The old man wiped the blood from the corner of his eyes and said in a high voice, "You were young at that time, I planned to save this money for you to marry a wife, and I opened a separate passbook... If you don't believe me, I'll show it to you now."

Sha Zhu's anger eased a little after hearing this.

"Old Xu, I remember Sha Zhu married a wife, didn't he?" Lin Shaowen said faintly.

"Yes, old man, what you said is not right." Xu Damao said, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, "Hasn't this Sha Zhu married Qin Peiru, and I haven't seen you take out the money..."

"Old beast, you dare to lie to me?"

Sha Zhu punched the old man in the eye again.

"Xu Damao."

The old man almost bit his teeth to pieces. This beast deserved to die.

"That's not the case." Lin Shaowen said lightly, holding a cigarette in his mouth, "Or maybe the old man thinks Qin Peiru is not a good match. He is unwilling to take out the money, which is understandable."

"Yi Zhonghai, what do you mean?" Qin Peiru was instantly furious.

"Lin Shaowen, can you go home if you are fine?" Yi Zhonghai was about to cry.

"Master He, the old man is still caring." Lin Shaowen patted Sha Zhu's shoulder, "Look at how he treated Jia Dongxu before..."

"Old Lin, what are you talking about?" Xu Damao said with a stern face, "The old man also treats Jia Dongxu as his own son, and this Sha Zhu was just picked up."

"You..."

Yi Zhonghai almost vomited blood in anger. These two people sang the same tune, and they had to let Sha Zhu beat him to death, right?

"Yi Zhonghai, take out the money quickly. If you are one cent short, I will kill you today." Sha Zhu said angrily.

"Okay, I will let Auntie go to get it now." Yi Zhonghai said fiercely, "Sha Zhu, you don't listen to the old man, and you will suffer sooner or later..."

"It's been so many years since the 480 yuan." Lin Shaowen sighed, "If you borrow money from someone, you should get at least 3% interest a year, right? Old Xu, don't you think so?"

"That's not right." Xu Damao said loudly, "Uncle, you did it wrong. It's been more than ten years. You took 480 yuan from others, so you should at least include the interest."

Puff!

Yi Zhonghai spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Old Yi, Old Yi..." Auntie immediately screamed miserably.

Lin Shaowen stepped forward and inserted two silver needles into Yi Zhonghai's head.

Yi Zhonghai, who had been so angry that his face turned purple, immediately recovered, but there was a large pool of blood on his chest, which was very scary.

"He's fine, Old Xu, go on..." Lin Shaowen said with a smile.

"Beast, beast." Yi Zhonghai burst into tears, "You bully me because I have no children, right? I'm going to fight you today."

As he said that, he got up and went home, picked up two kitchen knives and rushed out.

"Uncle, don't mess around, this is..."

Xu Damao was about to push the responsibility to Lin Shaowen, but there was no trace of him in the yard.

"Xu Damao, I'll kill you."

Yi Zhonghai roared, raised the kitchen knife and chopped.

"Ah..."

Xu Damao screamed and immediately ran out of the yard.

Yi Zhonghai was old after all, and after chasing for a few steps, he immediately became out of breath.

His eyes were like torches, sweeping over everyone.

Liu Haizhong and others immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look at him, including Sha Zhu.

"He Yuzhu, you listened to the slander of the villain today, and you will definitely suffer a great loss in the future." Yi Zhonghai said in a deep voice, "Ask yourself, am I not a stingy person? When you offended Lin Shaowen, who paid for you?"

"Uncle..."

Shazhu lowered his head, not knowing whether he was ashamed or frightenedThe power of a kitchen knife.

"You have borrowed money from me for so many years. When have you ever paid it back?" Yi Zhonghai pursued him relentlessly, "Since you want to calculate, let's calculate it one by one, and I will give you the interest without any less."

"Don't worry, uncle, I just listened to Xu Damao." Sha Zhu was immediately anxious.

If the money he owed Yi Zhonghai was really included, not only would he have to pay 480 yuan, but he would also have to pay money.

"Humph." Yi Zhonghai's expression eased a little, and he said earnestly, "Zhu Zi, you are different from Xu Damao... and that beast Lin Shaowen. I really treat you as a relative. You are also a person with conscience, so I will help you."

"Uncle, I was wrong." Sha Zhu said ashamedly.

"Now that we've come to this, it's still yours." Yi Zhonghai took the passbook handed over by the aunt, "You keep the money yourself. I was afraid that you were young and couldn't save money. Now that you're older, you should spend the money yourself."

"Uncle..."

Sha Zhu was grateful and his eyes were red.

Yi Zhonghai reached out and patted his shoulder, sighing.

In his heart, he hated Xu Damao and Lin Shaowen, especially Xu Damao. He would get rid of this kid sooner or later.

West Wing Courtyard.

Lin Shaowen had just walked to the recliner and was about to lie down when he welcomed an uninvited guest.

"Minister Xu, why are you here?"

"I heard that you were suspended again." Xu Shen laughed, "Good boy, you were checked over and over again, but I couldn't find any fault with you... You don't know that Song Wenxi checked your files in the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Health last night."

"Director Song is serious about his work." Lin Shaowen also laughed.

"By the way, I want to talk to you about business..." Xu Shen suddenly became serious.

Seeing this, Lin Shaowen waved to Qin Jingru.

Several women immediately hid in the bedroom, but everyone's movements were very unified, all hiding under the window sill.

The autumn wind blew.

The flowers, plants and trees in the yard all trembled slightly. Xu Shen took out a cigarette, handed one to Lin Shaowen, and lit one himself.

"If you still want to return to the city, don't let Qin Jingru go to the countryside."

"Hmm."

Lin Shaowen looked at Xu Shen with a strange expression.

He hadn't told anyone about Qin Jingru's going to the countryside, and now Xu Shen knew about it...there was only one possibility.

This old guy had been watching him in secret.
