The next day! The old man brought Li Zihang and gifts to visit and thank the relatives and friends who helped Li Zihang when he was kidnapped last time.

Liu Dawai 2 entered the courtyard, in the central hall, the old man put a sandalwood box on the eight-immortals table and pushed it to Liu Dawai who was sitting next to him.

Old man: "Thank you for your help, Master. This is just a token of respect."

Liu Dawai opened the sandalwood box and took a look at the three large yellow croakers inside. He said with a smile, "Master Li, you are too polite! Last time, it was just the brothers running errands. It was your young master Sun who was blessed by heaven."

The old man put down the teacup in his hand and waved to Li Zihang. He said, "Grandson, why don't you thank me?"

Li Zihang clasped his fists and bowed: "Thank you for saving me last time, Master Wai. I bow to you again."

Seeing Li Zihang's expression, Liu Dawai quickly stood up, helped Li Zihang up and said, "Master Sun, you are too polite. If you have any problems in the future, just let me know. I promise to do it for you."

The old man said, "Grandpa Wai, thank you again for your help last time. From now on, my family business will be handed over to my eldest grandson. In addition to thanking you today, I also took my useless grandson to introduce himself to the family so that he can be taken care of in the future."

Liu Dawai: "Master Li, I understand what you mean. I will still count on you and Master Sun to take care of me in the future."

After some polite words, the old man said sorry for disturbing him. After Liu Dawai saw the guests out, he said to his servants, "Look at these two! What a real master! Such demeanor, such bearing, and such a bold move! This young master Sun has such good upbringing! We are nothing like a bunch of rough guys. Even wearing dragon robes, we don't look like emperors."

Li Zihang, who was sitting on the old man's bicycle, asked who this old man was.

The old man said as he rode his bike: "This Liu Dawai was just a gangster in the early days of the Republic of China. Later, he got connected with our master and delivered food and goods to the family. Later, he organized a group of gangsters and started the escort business. Then, this guy stopped being a gangster and just worked hard to escort goods for the master. Later, the master passed away and I took over some of the business, but I gave the job of escorting goods to him."

Li Zihang: "Grandpa, how much property do we have?"

Old man: "I will tell you slowly later"...

After visiting Director Zhao and the elders in the clan, Li Zihang resumed his normal life. Regardless of whether they were sincere or not, the old man sent some cakes and fruits as a thank you to the residents in the yard who went out to look for Li Zihang last time. The old man also arranged for a meal in his own restaurant for his own servants, brothers and sisters in the clan, and uncles.

In 1951, after the beginning of the year, the composition of residents in all parts of the city was fully implemented.

There is no doubt that the Li family is composed of big capitalists.

In March of the same year, He Daqing also abandoned Shazhu and Yushui and took the widow to Baocheng, leaving only a letter to the old man, asking him to take care of Yushui and Shazhu.

In the evening, in the restaurant of the East Wing, Li Zihang's family of three talked about this matter while having dinner.

Li Zihang: "Grandpa, how could Uncle He just run away like that?"

After taking a bite of the food, the old man said, "The fact that He Daqing ran away is related to his background. I think he was tricked."

Grandma: "He Daqing, you are always talking nonsense. You can't control your words. You used to cook for many dignitaries. You have offended many people because of these. I guess he has been reported."

Li Zihang: "Grandma! I asked Yushui, his family is poor peasants, why is Uncle He running away?"

The old man drank a sip of wine and said, "Humph! He is a poor peasant. I don't know who got him involved. He was tricked this time and can only run away with his widow."

Grandma: "Now we can only pity Shazhu and Yushui. They lost their mother when they were young, and now their father has run away. I don't know how the two children will live in the future."

Old man: "He Daqing left me a letter, saying that he would send some money to the two children every month. He asked us to take care of the two children. Then he arranged Sha Zhu's affairs."

After hearing this, Li Zihang was in no mood to eat. He put down his bowl, said hello to his grandparents, and went to see Shazhu and Yushui. When he left, Li Zihang took a bowl of meat and vegetables, took four white flour buns, and went to look for Yushui and Shazhu.

I walked through the moon gate at the entrance of my house, passed the back house and came to the front yard. Then I met the young uncle Yan Fugui.

Yan Fugui: "Hey! Young Master, what are you doing with the dishes and steamed buns? What? Who are you sending warmth to?"

Li Zihang: "Uncle Yan, please stop teasing me. Didn't Uncle He leave? My grandfather asked me to bring some food to Yushui and Zhuzi."

Yan Fugui knew what was going on and said, "Then you go quickly. Poor Shazhu and Xiao Yushui." After saying that, he looked at the dishes that Li Zihang was holding and swallowed.

At this time, most people were eating, and there were few people in the front yard and the middle yard. After arriving at the room where Sha Zhu lived, Li Zihang kicked the door with his foot.

Shazhu and Yushui were eating in the room. When they heard the knock on the door, Yushui quickly got up and opened the door. After seeing Li Zihang outside, his bitter face also smiled and called him Brother Zihang sweetly.

After putting down the dishes and steamed buns in his hands, Li Zihang sat aside and said, "Brother Zhuzi, Yushui, grandma asked me to bring you two some food. Uncle He has been gone for a few days, so don't be sad."

Sha Zhu said nothing, picked up the steamed buns and meat dishes that Li Zihang brought and started eating. He also didn't eat the steamed buns and shredded potatoes next to him. When Yu Shui saw her brother start eating, she said sweetly to Li Zihang:

"Thank you! Brother Zihang," he said, picking up the steamed bun and started eating. Li Zihang watched Shazhu and Yushui eat without disturbing them.

He just sat aside and said to himself: "Brother Zhuzi, you have also read the letter Uncle He left for my grandfather. You and Yushui should not blame Uncle He. My grandfather said that Uncle He was tricked by someone and had no choice but to run away."

Sha Zhu looked up at Li Zihang and swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Master, after my father left, I realized it. In this whole yard, only your family is really kind to me and Yu Shui. To tell you the truth, in this yard, other families avoid me and my sister, fearing that we will rely on them. As for my father, it is impossible for me not to hate him in my heart. But I can't do anything. Alas..."

Li Zihang: "Brother Zhuzi, grandpa told me to tell you that Yushui will be the same as before. Grandma will prepare lunch boxes for Yushui at noon, and he will eat at my house after school in the afternoon. As for you, you will continue to be an apprentice at Emei Restaurant. We will talk about it after you become a master."

Yu Shui cried again when she heard Li Zihang talking about He Daqing. While eating, she said to Li Zihang, "Brother Zihang, does my father really not want me and my brother anymore?"

Li Zihang saw Yu Shui like this and quickly comforted her. "Yu Shui, your father didn't abandon you. He was framed. He had no choice but to run away. He will come back in the future. Brother Zhuzi, Yu Shui, Uncle He will send you living expenses every month..."

Since I last sent food to Shazhu and Yushui, it was June. Something happened to the Jia family. Old Jia had an accident while working in the steel mill and died on the spot. Jia Zhang cried and made a fuss. Lou Bancheng gave her 6 million yuan in compensation (equivalent to 200 yuan in the second set of RMB) and let Jia Dongxu take over to appease Jia Zhang.

In mid-July, Yi Zhonghai, the future uncle, had an argument with a middle-aged man while purchasing daily necessities at the supply and marketing cooperative on Sunday. He was kicked in the lower body by the other man. One of his testicles was kicked out and the other was injured. He stayed in the hospital for another week before recovering. It is estimated that he will not be able to have children in the future. Yi Zhonghai hid this from the residents in the yard and said that he was injured somewhere else.
