Siheyuan: The happy life of a little chef

Li Jianjun and Han Chunyan looked at each other, wondering who would come so late.

Li Jianjun opened the door, Qin Huairu ran in quickly, and then closed the door.

Li Jianjun asked curiously.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Did you forget something?"

Qin Huairu pulled Li Jianjun into their room.

"Jianjun, Xiao'e, there is something. There were so many people around just now that I dare not tell you. I can only tell you after everyone leaves."

Li Jianjun asked.

"What's the matter, sister-in-law?"

Qin Huairu unbuttoned two buttons and took out a bundle from his arms.

"It's like this. Some relatives came to our house today, and I was entertaining them at home. Later in the afternoon, after I sent them off, I returned to the door, and Xiaodang called me and said that she saw Yi Zhonghai taking something into your house, and she found it. I went in and saw some gold, silver, and jewelry, as well as a letter. I read it and felt something was wrong, so I took the bundle back and hid it. I didn't dare to tell you until now."

Li Jianjun opened the bundle, looked at the gold, silver and jewelry inside, exchanged glances with Han Chunyan, then picked up the letter and started reading.

After reading it, Li Jianjun was filled with fear. If this was found in his home, he would never be able to clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

Han Chunyan saw that Li Jianjun looked unhappy, so she took the letter and read it herself.

"Jianjun, is this a frame-up? This is putting the blame on you."

Li Jianjun nodded.

"Sister-in-law, did anyone see you when you took it out?"

Qin Huairu shook his head.

"Everyone was in the front yard at the time, only the old lady was in the back yard, but her door was closed and no one saw her."

Li Jianjun said gratefully.

"Sister-in-law, you saved our family today. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to wash myself clean even if I jumped into the Yellow River."

Qin Huairu felt a little embarrassed.

"Jianjun, what are you talking about? If it weren't for you, I would have married Shazhu. How could this happen? Yi Zhonghai hates you so much because of me. In the end, it was me who implicated you."

Li Jianjun waved his hand.

"It's none of your business. Ever since I entered this courtyard, Yi Zhonghai has been trying to suppress me. Our conflict has existed since I came in. Your matter is at most a fuse."

Han Chunyaner asked.

"Jianjun, what should we do now? How about we report to the police and have Yi Zhonghai arrested?"

Li Jianjun thought about it.

"No, I will take care of him. Besides, if I report this to the police, all these things will be confiscated. I have a way to deal with him. Reporting this to the police will give him an easy deal. Just wait and see."

"Also, if I'm not mistaken, they were the ones who found someone to kill me."

Han Chunyan asked nervously.

"Yi Zhonghai is so bold that he actually dares to hire someone to kill you."

Li Jianjun shook his head.

"It's not Yi Zhonghai. He doesn't have the guts to find someone to kill me."

Han Chunyan asked in confusion.

"You mean someone else?"

Li Jianjun smiled.

"It's easy to guess who those people are. Jia Zhang is a lazy person who only knows how to eat and do nothing. Sha Zhu is now devoted to Bang Geng. Although Yi Zhonghai hates me, he only dares to frame me. The one who is really looking for someone should be the deaf old lady."

Han Chunyan and Qin Huairu never thought that the person who hired someone to kill Li Jianjun would be a deaf old lady.

"This old woman is really cruel. She usually looks kind and benevolent, but I didn't expect her methods to be so cruel."

Now Li Jianjun is no longer worried.

"Don't worry. She must have paid a heavy price for hiring someone to kill me. There won't be a second time. Since she did it, she must have left clues. I believe Director Wei will find out about her soon. Add to that the things she framed me with, how could she have so much money?"

Han Chunyan thought about it and agreed.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for today. Without you, I would be in big trouble. These things are yours, but you have to leave them with me first. Your place is not safe."

Qin Huairu waved his hands repeatedly.

"No, no, no, Jianjun, I can't take it. They framed you for this. It should belong to you."

"Sister-in-law, isn't my life worth these things?"

Han Chunyan was also trying to persuade them.

"Huai Ru, just accept it. We will keep it for you. If you need it in the future, please let us know."

Qin Huairu looked at the gold, silver and jewelry. It would be a lie to say she wasn't moved. She had never seen so many good things in her life. But she remembered what her father said, that her life would belong to Li Jianjun from now on, so what was the point of having these things.

"Jianjun, please keep it. I don't want it. It's too late. I want to go back. If Huaihua wakes up and can't see me, I'll cry."

After saying that, he left without waiting for Li Jianjun to speak.

When Li Jianjun closed the door again and returned to the bed, Han Chunyan asked.

"Jianjun, how are you going to deal with Yi Zhonghai?"

Li Jianjun smiled.

"I know a big secret of Yi Zhonghai, but don't worry, first deal with the deaf old woman, then deal with Yi Zhonghai, the order can't be messed up."

Seeing that Li Jianjun was so confident, Han Chunyan stopped asking.

"Wife, go to bed first. I scared you today. Have a good sleep. I will play with Doudou for a while before going to bed."

Han Chunyan looked at Li Jianjun and Doudou playing, her face full of happiness, and fell asleep in a short while.

On the other side, a dark shadow entered the backyard from the middle courtyard, pushed open the door of the deaf old lady and slipped in.

"Old lady, Li Jianjun is back, what should we do? Will he know it was us who did it?"

The black shadow was Yi Zhonghai. He was almost scared to death when he saw Li Jianjun coming back, so he quickly found time to ask the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady left the door open so that she could get the news more easily.

"Don't panic. I saw him coming back. If he knew this, he might not bring the police to arrest me. This means that even if Xiao Qi failed, he ran away or died. Anyway, it has nothing to do with me, let alone you. As long as we keep calm and don't lose our composure, no one will know it was us."

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and agreed. Fortunately, he kept some space and did not report it in person, otherwise it would definitely arouse suspicion. But the old lady showed up in person. If something happened, would she give herself away?

The deaf old lady saw what he was thinking.

"Zhong Hai, I'm sure Xiao Qi won't betray me. Don't worry. Even if I go to jail, I will protect you."

Yi Zhonghai felt relieved as long as the old lady had her promise.

The deaf old lady continued.

"Zhong Hai, if anything happens to me, you have to help me take care of Sha Zhu. That Bang Geng is not a good person. Watch him and don't let Zhu get cheated."

Yi Zhonghai nodded.

"Old lady, Zhuzi is my old man, how could I watch him suffer? I would have done it even if you didn't tell me."

The deaf old lady closed her eyes.

"Let's go, go back, stop thinking about it, have a good sleep, and pretend you know nothing. Also, help me close the door."

Seeing that the deaf old lady had spoken, Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to go back to the house.

After Yi Zhonghai left, the deaf old lady opened her eyes with a look of worry. She was not sure if no one saw her when she went to look for Xiaoqi. If someone saw her, she would be finished. Although she was old, she had not lived enough and had not eaten enough meat.

After thinking about it for a while, he sighed and went to sleep.
