Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

Seeing what the old lady wanted to say, he ignored her and continued, "You schemed against me, but you also let me get a wife. Although I am a gangster, my life in Baoding is not bad. I can't take advantage of others and still act like a good kid. We are even. However, my two children have been wronged, and I can't let it go. Tell me, are you doing human work? Huh?"

"Daqing, we have no intention of harming the two children."

Yi Zhonghai explained.

"I didn't harm them. But, just for your future retirement, you alienated the relationship between us as father and son, and father and daughter. You already have Jia Dongxu, and you still feel unsafe, and you're still thinking about scheming against Zhuzi. He has a father, and his father is me. You don't even ask for my opinion, and you want to find another father for my son?"

His voice was full of resentment. These two people were really inhuman!

"Yi Zhonghai, tell me, how dare you do this? I sent you ten yuan every month for eight years, and you pocketed all of it without missing a penny. Aren't you worried about missing out? But you still did it. Do you really think that I will never be able to return to the capital in this lifetime?"

Outside the house, the third uncle's eyes suddenly widened completely, his mouth opened involuntarily, and saliva even flowed from the corners of his mouth.

"My goodness, ten dollars a month for eight years, how much is that? Let me calculate, let me calculate."

He was so excited that his brain was in a mess.

After a long while, he murmured, "One hundred and twenty dollars a year, eight years, that's nine hundred and sixty dollars. Wow, that's more than my family's savings over the years. Hey, this guy is getting rich!"

Yi Zhonghai said, "Daqing, I will compensate you. I will compensate you! I apologize to you again. I admit that I was wrong. Please forgive me. You said that I have been good to Zhuzi all these years, right? We will still live in this courtyard in the future. We will see each other every day. Let's not quarrel with each other. How about this, I will not touch a penny of the money you sent me all these years. I will give it all to Zhuzi, and I will add 200 yuan as my compensation. How about it?"

An old lady had been crying silently beside them. She only found out today that her husband and the deaf old lady had done so many things in secret.

"Oh, it's all my fault for not giving birth to a child. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many problems."

As for the third uncle who was eavesdropping, he was actually drooling.

"Now, Zhuzi has twice as much savings as my family. Why am I so envious?"

He Daqing said, "Compensation is required. But I will definitely not agree to the figure you mentioned. If I call the police, you know what will happen to you. Eating a free meal is the least of your problems. You are dreaming of solving the problem with 200 yuan. You should pay double the amount. Not only do you want a high compensation, but you also have to write me a letter of guarantee, because I have to go back to Baoding, and I am worried that you will target my two children in the future. So, I ask you to write this down and promise not to target them in the future, and we will let it go."

They didn't know that there was a sixth brother hiding outside, who heard everything they said completely.

"No, no, I can't possibly write it, but I promise I won't target pillars or rain in the future."

Yi Zhonghai became anxious. He definitely couldn't do anything that would give others something to hold against him.

"You are a person who can do anything to support your old age. I don't believe you."

He Daqing insisted on this condition. The two negotiated the conditions back and forth, but they could not reach an agreement. Yi Zhonghai was even willing to increase the compensation.

Seeing that there was no solution, the deaf old lady said, "Daqing, Zhonghai, stop arguing. I have something to say."

"You said."

"You said."

They both said at the same time that they didn't realize that this old lady had always held an important place in their hearts.

Even now, He Daqing still subconsciously wanted to listen to her opinion.

He Yuzhu did not react, thinking that there was nothing wrong with listening to the old lady's advice. However, when He Yushui saw this scene, he had some thoughts in his mind.

The old lady said slowly, "When Daqing sent the money back, there must be a copy at the post office. Daqing should also have a receipt. As long as we keep the receipt well, it will be the same as Zhonghai writing a letter of guarantee, right? You don't have to tear your faces apart, Daqing, what do you think?"

He Daqing thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, the stub can indeed prove that this happened."

"Daqing, Zhuzi is now a level 41.5 chef with a monthly salary of 498 yuan. Let's ask Zhonghai to compensate Zhuzi for one year's salary, which is 500 yuan. Let's round it up to yuan, okay?"

When He Daqing heard this number, he was very satisfied and the expression on his face relaxed.

In fact, he didn't even think about calling the police.

Yes, calling the police can help him vent his anger, and it can make people around him recognize Yi Zhonghai again and ruin his reputation. It will definitely not be easy for him to get away, and getting a free meal in jail would be the least of his worries.

But, people are forgetful!

When the incident is over, people around them will think that the He family is too cruel and ruthless, and slowly, the He family will be isolated.

Therefore, making Yi Zhonghai bleed profusely is the best outcome. Moreover, he also has to worry about the matter being leaked, and he is worried every day, which is like cutting flesh with a slow knife and causing continuous pain.

As for the three uncles outside, their eyes were wide open.

"Wow, 500 yuan is incredible. It's twice as much as my family's savings."

Slurp, he couldn't help but suck his saliva.

"Zhonghai, go get the money."

"Hey, good."

Outside the house, the third uncle was shivering with cold, but his heart was burning with joy. Seeing that things were basically over, he sneaked out of the firewood pile with light steps. When he reached the yard, he walked briskly back to the front yard.

"Boss, what did you hear?"

The third aunt saw her husband coming in with a cold look on his face, and asked curiously with an excited expression.

"What did you hear? Haha, big news."

After the third uncle sat down, he picked up a cup of hot tea and drank it with a smug look on his face.

"What's the big deal?"

The third aunt is definitely a very good listener and has the ability to support the main role.

"Do I know?"

"Hmm. Know what?"

"After He Daqing went to Baoding, he sent ten yuan to Zhuzi and his sister every month, and he has been doing so until now."

"I don't know. Oh, he sent a lot of money. But I haven't heard Zhuzi say anything about it. Is he afraid that others will borrow money from him?"

"What? Zhuzi didn't get the money at all. It was taken away by an old man. He didn't get a cent."

"What? He's cheating? No way, how dare he do that?"

"How dare you? Hey, you don't dare, but he does."

"Then why is that? His family is not short of money."

"But he is short of people to take care of him in his old age."

After hearing this, the third aunt suddenly realized: "You mean, the first uncle wants Zhuzi to take care of him in his old age? But didn't he find Jia Dongxu?"
