The life of a villain in a courtyard

"Bang Geng, what's wrong with you? Why are you so scared? This is your Aunt Cui, who held you in her arms when you were a child."

Yi Zhonghai stared at Bang Geng with his eyes wide open, as if he was going to pounce on him and bite him to death the next moment.

"I, I'm scared, I'm scared!"

Bang Geng was scared because he bit himself to death. Yi Zhonghai had no evidence and the police also said that Aunt Cui died of a heart attack. He wanted to do something, but found that he could do nothing about it and could only let Bang Geng go home.

"Bang Geng, come here, I have something to ask you."

After returning home, Qin Huairu asked Banggeng to stand in front of her and explain what had happened.

"Tell me, did Aunt Cui's death have anything to do with you? Did you anger her and give her a heart attack?"

"Mom, I really didn't do anything. I stayed at home the whole day before yesterday and didn't go out. I didn't see her either. How could I possibly make Aunt Cui angry to death?"

"Then why are you so scared?"

"I'm not afraid of Aunt Cui, I'm afraid of dead people."

"Huai Ru, what are you doing? Isn't it normal for a child to be afraid of death? Besides, who knows if Cui Xiuyun will come out to harm others?"

Speaking of this, the two of them seemed to recall something that they did not want to recall, and they shuddered together.

"Okay, okay, Mom, stop promoting these feudal superstitions. Be careful that the street office will arrest you and parade you through the streets as a villain."

He let Banggeng go back to the house and went to the front hall to burn two incense sticks for the gods worshipped at home.

……

"Honey, do you think Aunt Cui's death might be related to Bang Geng?"

Chen Li felt something was wrong after hearing about Banggeng's abnormal behavior in the mourning hall.

“Although I don’t know what role he played in this, it is definitely related to him, otherwise he wouldn’t have such a big reaction.

This guy is really a beast. When Aunt Cui was alive, she sent a lot of food to their family, but now he turns around and kills her. What an ungrateful person. "

"Bang bang bang."

A knock on the door interrupted their conversation.

"What do you want, old lady?"

The person who came was a deaf old lady. She was dirty all over, smelled, and looked pale. She looked much weaker than before and had no energy at all, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.

"Xiao Su, please be so kind as to give the old lady something to eat."

Last time, a deaf old lady was admitted to the hospital for gastroenteritis. Yi Zhonghai was afraid of spending money, so he got some medicine from the hospital and took the old lady home to take care of her.

It was fine at the beginning. In order to leave a good impression in front of their children, the old couple would come back from time to time to bring her meals and do the housework.

But ever since the child was lost, no one has taken care of her. Everyone is looking for the child. Who has the energy to take care of an old widow like her, who is not her relative?

Look, she hasn't had a full meal for several days, and she has been begging for food to survive these days.

"We don't have any extra food at home. You can find someone else. Yi Zhonghai happened to be back, so you can go to his house for dinner. If he doesn't care, come back and tell me, and I'll report him to the neighborhood office."

"No, no, thank you for your kindness."

After saying that, he closed the door.

The deaf old lady went to several more houses, just to get half a cold steamed bun.

I’m afraid I won’t live long if this continues.

No, she couldn't go on like this. After much thought, she found that there was only one way left for her to go. So the deaf old lady went to the neighborhood office, hoping that they could send her to a nursing home. Although the environment there was not good, it was better than living in a courtyard house.

Aunt Cui is dead, her reputation is ruined, and no one will be willing to take care of her anymore.

It's only been a few days and I'm already in such a miserable state, like a beggar. What will I do if this continues for a long time?

Although the director of the street office did not want to care about the life or death of the deaf old lady, it was a human life after all. As the leader of the street office, she could not sit idly by, so she agreed to send the deaf old lady to a nursing home.

Today’s nursing homes are different from those in later generations. Although those in later generations are not very good either, at least people can get enough food. But in the nursing homes here, people cannot get enough food.

The deaf old lady also passed away shortly after she entered the nursing home. She ate too quickly and a mouthful of steamed bread got stuck in her throat.

……

"Master Yi, what's wrong with you lately? You're so absent-minded. Look at the scrap rate. If you keep going like this, I'll have to report it. Don't blame me for not reminding you if your salary is deducted."

The waste basket in front of Yi Zhonghai is almost full, and he doesn’t know how much of his salary will be deducted.

The team leader did not report it because of Yi Zhonghai's status as an eighth-level worker.

"Understood, I will pay attention."

Yi Zhonghai apologized to him.

Things have been happening one after another these days, and he is exhausted.

A few days ago, the deaf old lady went to a nursing home. When Director Wang came to collect the house, he was sarcastic and mocking, and that was because Aunt Cui had just passed away.

While processing parts, Yi Zhonghai was thinking about what had happened in the past few days.

One thing after another was too strange, and Banggeng's abnormal behavior at the funeral hall made him suspicious.

He was puzzled as to whether he had anything to do with this, what he had done, and what his role was.

After much thought, Yi Zhonghai decided to find Su Yun. He was the first one to notice the problem that day, and maybe he would have some way to help him figure it out.

But because of what he had done before, Su Yun would definitely not care about him. What should he do?

"Master, be careful!"

A disciple ran over and pushed Yi Zhonghai away.

Immediately afterwards, a piece of scrap metal hit him. Fortunately, the apprentice reacted quickly, otherwise another life would have been lost.

"Master Yi, why don't you go home and have some rest? If you are so absent-minded, something bad will happen sooner or later."

The team leader didn't dare let him continue working as someone almost died.

It was just ten o'clock in the morning when Yi Zhonghai returned to the courtyard.

Holding a few bags of Daoxiangcun pastries in his hand, he went to the backyard and knocked on Su Yun's door.

It was Chen Li who opened the door. She was the only one at home, as He Yushui had also gone to school.

"Uncle Yi, please come and look for our Su Yun. He is not at home. Please come back in the evening."

Su Yun told her that if these people came looking for her, she should ignore them and wait until she came back.

"I'm not looking for him, I'm looking for you."

"Find me?"

"Yes, I came to you. I want to ask you to do me a favor. I know you two have a very bad impression of me. This is all my own fault. I deserve it.

But my wife and child are innocent. I know Su Yun is capable. He must have discovered something at the funeral that day. Can you ask him to help me find my child? I am over 50 years old and this is the only thing I have left. As long as he can help me find my child, I am willing to do anything. "

Chen Li was about to become a mother, and she could understand the feeling of parents worrying about their children, so she agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, I'll go ask for you, but I can't guarantee whether it will work."

"Thank you, this is the cake I bought from Daoxiang Village, please accept it."

During dinner that night, Chen Li told Su Yun what happened today.

"Yi Zhonghai asked me for help? How strange."

"So do you care or not?"

"To be honest, I don't want to care at all. What does their family affairs have to do with me?

But then I thought, I can't just ignore it. If it was really Bang Geng who did it, if I don't punish him, there will be a second time. Who knows if it will happen to us? I'm not afraid, but I'm worried about you and the child."

After Chen Li became pregnant, Su Yun became more vulnerable and had to think twice before speaking and doing things.

After dinner, Su Yun called the two brothers of the Liu family and asked them to keep an eye on Bang Geng.

"Brother Su, can you let my brother go alone?"

"What, you don't want to go?"

"I've started dating someone recently, so I need to spend more time with her."

He felt embarrassed when he talked about this.

With money in hand, Liu Guangtian felt confident, so he asked someone to find him a partner as a temporary worker in a textile factory.

"They are dating quietly. Okay, let Guangfu keep an eye on them. If there is any movement, notify me immediately."
