Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

Qin Zheng smiled faintly and said, "Why? Of course, it's for retirement."

"Do I have to embezzle other people's living expenses just to support my old age?"

Xu Huizhen still couldn't understand.

Qin Zheng said: "This matter is quite complicated. Although I have not been home for three years, I dare say that even Zhuzi and Yi Zhonghai don't know as much as I do."

Chen Xueru: "Then tell me about it."

Han Qing also said: "What's going on?"

Qin Zheng: "I knew about it when Uncle He and Widow Bai were just getting together. Mom, do you still remember? At that time, I hadn't gone to worship yet. One night, it was already past 8pm and Yu Shui hadn't eaten yet. Did you make her noodle soup?"

"I seem to remember that the rain was so embarrassing that it circled around our door for a few times and only came in because it was so hungry."

"Well, that's because Uncle He went to the White Widow after get off work. On the night I left home, I called Zhuzi out and told him my judgment. Zhuzi hid the money at home. Uncle He originally wanted to sneak away, but he couldn't find the money, so he had to negotiate with Zhuzi."

"Ah? There is such a thing?"

Han Qing was very surprised.

Qin Zheng: "Zhu Zi and Uncle He discussed three conditions. First, he could not quit his job and Zhu Zi would take over directly. Second, the house should be transferred directly to Zhu Zi. Third, he should leave one year's living expenses and he would not need to send money in the future. Uncle He finally met these three conditions and went to Baoding with peace of mind. However, neither of them considered Yu Shui and did not tell Yu Shui in advance. Yu Shui kept asking for her father every day, so Zhu Zi had to take Yu Shui to Baoding."

"Didn't He Daqing refuse to see Zhuzi? So, Zhuzi is very dissatisfied with his father. But, He Daqing is willing to send money, how could he refuse to see him?"

Qin Zheng said: "I once told Zhuzi my judgment, that is, Uncle He was drunk by the White Widow. Zhuzi also thought it was more likely, but he was stubborn and refused to go to Baoding to confirm it. Of course, I later found that my judgment was correct, and Uncle He was indeed drunk."

Chen Xueru said: "What does this have to do with Yi Zhonghai's retirement?"

"Yi Zhonghai's choice of elderly care recipient is Jia Dongxu, as he is obedient and respectful of the elderly. But the deaf old lady thinks that Zhuzi is more suitable than Jia Dongxu because he is kinder than Jia Dongxu and has no elders above him. Neither of them can convince the other. However, Yi Zhonghai did not completely ignore the deaf old lady's advice and listed Jia Dongxu as the first elderly care recipient, with Zhuzi as the backup. As for not giving the money to Zhuzi, Yi Zhonghai should have two purposes. One is to make Zhuzi completely disappointed in Uncle He and sever the father-son relationship between the two. The second is to help Zhuzi and his siblings when they are in financial difficulty. In this way, Zhuzi will be grateful to him and there will be an extra guarantee for his elderly care in the future. But he didn't expect that Zhuzi was not short of money, and things happened one after another, and it has become the current situation."

"This is disgusting, how can people be so evil?"

Chen Xueru said indignantly.

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "Bad? Do you think this is bad? There are worse ones."

"Tell me what you think, I want to hear how people can be even worse!"

"He Daqing did not remarry in the four years after Aunt He passed away, and he was able to send money back home, which shows that he still had feelings for his children. I think there are two reasons why he ran away to Baoding. The first one has not been confirmed, which is that Widow Bai forced him to do so. If Uncle He did not accompany her to Baoding, she would report Uncle He."

“This possibility is very high.”

Qin Leshan made the final decision. The sentences for hooliganism are very severe nowadays. If the White Widow uses this to force He Daqing, He Daqing would not dare to refuse.

"The second reason, I have confirmed, was designed by the deaf old lady. She said that someone reported Uncle He's family background forgery, and the neighborhood committee will investigate him next. Uncle He was scared and wanted to leave the capital."

As he spoke, he recalled the conversation between the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai that he happened to overhear, and also what she said to herself after Yi Zhonghai separated from her.

"what?"

"how is this possible?"

Qin Zheng said, "It's true. When we were having dinner at Damao's house, I had good hearing and happened to hear the conversation between Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady. After Yi Zhonghai left, the deaf old lady talked to herself in her room for a long time, and I heard it clearly. Moreover, it was the deaf old lady who instigated the White Widow to pursue Uncle He. When she was chatting with Yi Zhonghai, she got the information about the White Widow, so she designed the encounter, chatted with the White Widow, and gave her advice, which led to the subsequent events. Zhuzi still doesn't know that the old lady he has always respected was actually cheating him behind his back. It's just that I don't have direct evidence, and Zhuzi is stubborn and has refused to go to Baoding until now."

Chen Xueru exclaimed: "Oh my God, this is too unreal!"

Xu Huizhen also said: "This can be written into a book."

"I originally thought that when Zhuzi went to Baoding, someone must have informed the White Widow in advance, so she had the opportunity to get Uncle He drunk and made them miss the chance to meet. But after listening to the old lady's muttering, I realized that it was she who tipped off the White Widow, so Uncle He was drunk. He didn't even know that Zhuzi had been to Baoding."

Chen Xueru said: "Then I don't understand, what is the deaf old lady doing?"

"Why? It's still for retirement."

"What do you mean? Isn't she a five-guarantee household? Why is she still worrying about her old-age care?"

Chen Xueru asked three questions in a row, feeling even more confused.

Han Qing said: "This old lady is not an ordinary person. I heard that she once donated straw sandals to the Red Army."

"Tsk, you really believe it?"

"Why, is there something else going on here?"

"Of course. The old lady's favorite is Yi Zhonghai, and his daily life is taken care of by a lady. Although he is a five-guarantee household, he lives better than the elderly in ordinary families. She is old and has a high status in the courtyard, so naturally she wants to find a way to stabilize Yi Zhonghai's status as a grandfather, so the two of them came up with the idea of ​​sending shoes. The amazing thing is that they didn't say this themselves, but tried to let others spread it themselves. It's impossible to say that they are deceiving. They are very insidious and cunning."

"Amazing, really amazing." Xu Huizhen exclaimed.

"This old lady has someone to take care of her, but Auntie's cooking skills are not good, and she rarely eats meat, so she has set her sights on Zhuzi. She usually calls her grandson grandson, keeps him by her side, and eats a lot of meat that Zhuzi gets. But look at how she treats Yu Shui? This old lady has someone to take care of her, and with Zhuzi for food, she can be said to have no worries about food and clothing. In order to return the favor, she naturally has to make suggestions for Yi Zhonghai's retirement cause. If Uncle He stays in the courtyard all the time, no matter how she schemes, Zhuzi will not be able to take care of Yi Zhonghai in his old age. What to do? Just get rid of him."

"call."

After ten seconds, everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief. Who knew that there would be so many things going on here? It was truly unbelievable.
