Siheyuan: After traveling through time, who can still be an honest person?

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu and asked solemnly:

"Zhu Zi, what happened at that time? Tell me in detail."

Sha Zhu felt extremely uncomfortable, his voice became low, and he spoke slowly:

"The old lady said she wanted to talk to Director Wang. After we arrived at the street office, she sent me away. I don't know what happened afterwards..."

"Zhu Zi, don't be too sad."

Yi Zhonghai comforted him and pretended to be in deep thought. He slowly analyzed, "There are only two possibilities for this situation. The first possibility is that the old lady is old and confused. She wrote this will when her mind was not clear."

After hearing this, Sha Zhu quickly shook his head.

He recalled the scene at that time and the deaf old lady behaved normally.

After hesitating for a while, Sha Zhu looked at Yi Zhonghai and muttered to himself:

"Maybe it's because I felt sorry for Sister Qin...the two children at home, and I didn't give the lunch box I brought back from the factory to the old lady, so she got angry..."

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and immediately denied this speculation:

"The old lady is not a petty person. She will definitely not hold a grudge against you for such a small matter."

"Then I really can't think of any other reason..." Sha Zhu looked confused.

Yi Zhonghai frowned, thought deeply for a moment, and suddenly said:

"I think the only possibility is that she was threatened by Cao Yue!"

"Threat?" Sha Zhu's eyes were as big as copper bells, full of confusion and shock.

"That's right." Yi Zhonghai nodded firmly.

Sha Zhu asked suspiciously, "No way, two days ago, Cao Yue sent two meat dishes to the old lady for every meal, and the old lady praised him."

"Zhu Zi, you are just too kind and don't understand the evil of human hearts." Yi Zhonghai said earnestly, "Cao Yue did this on purpose, otherwise the old lady would leave the house to him for no reason, and everyone would be suspicious."

Sha Zhu was still somewhat skeptical, but Yi Zhonghai's words made him fall into deep thought...

Although he had a grudge against Cao Yue, to say that Cao Yue forced a deaf old lady to commit suicide for a house, this is... too unbelievable.

The old lady is paralyzed and cannot take care of herself. It would be painful for her to live, and no one wants to add to his burden, so it is understandable that she would commit suicide.

and.

The deaf old lady did say a lot of strange things in the past two days. I didn't react at the time, but now looking back, I think she had already had thoughts of committing suicide.

The only thing that surprised Sha Zhu was that the deaf old lady left the house to Cao Yue.

However, Sha Zhu thought it was unlikely that Cao Yue would threaten the deaf old lady.

On the contrary, it is more likely that the deaf old lady will use the house as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Cao Yue.

The purpose is nothing more than for oneself.

Otherwise, the deaf old lady would not have run to Yi Zhonghai's door and died, but should have died at Cao Yue's door.

The old lady gave Cao Yue the house for her own good, and she committed suicide for her own good as well.

When Sha Zhu thought about this, he suddenly raised his hands and slapped himself hard twice.

clap clap!

Sha Zhu's face was visibly swollen.

"Zhu Zi, what are you doing?" An old lady was startled and looked at him with heartache.

Yi Zhonghai's expression froze, realizing that he had not fooled Sha Zhu, and then he showed a look of concern.

Sha Zhu, who had already burst into tears, suddenly stood up and ran out.

Yi Zhonghai's eyes were sinister and his facial muscles were distorted.

He hated the damn deaf old lady.

Her death at her own doorstep was like a thorn between Shazhu and him.

Yi Zhonghai returned to the inner room and lay down on the bed in anger.

I have been tired all day today, not only physically but also mentally.

Fortunately, he was not involved in the incident involving the deaf old lady.

This is also a blessing in disguise.

"Lao Yi, the old lady..." An old lady followed in.

"Don't mention that old man to me."

Yi Zhonghai was furious, his eyes full of deep resentment, "We have served her for so many years, but Cao is not as good as him in giving her a few meals of meat. What an ungrateful old man."

"Does she know that we deliberately..."

"Shut up! This is all caused by your weakness!"

Yi Zhonghai took a few deep breaths and tried to calm himself down.

What he needs to do now is to stabilize Sha Zhu and not let the deaf old lady's incident destroy their relationship.

Jia Dongxu is no longer with us, and Sha Zhu has become his only supporter in his old age.

He no longer has the energy to train and find a third one.

Yi Zhonghai murmured to himself: "It seems that I have to ask Qin Huairu for help. Zhuzi listens to her the most..."

……

Cao Yue returned home and just turned on the light when Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e knocked on the door and came in.

"Chief Cao, I heard that the deaf old lady died in front of Yi Zhonghai's house?"

Xu Damao had a sly smile on his face, and it was obvious that he was gloating over someone else's misfortune.

Behind her, Lou Xiao'e had a trace of sadness on her face.

Lou Xiao'e used to think that the deaf old lady was a lonely old widower and often gave things to her.

Later, I found out that Cao Yue didn't like the deaf old lady, so I rarely went to her house.

"Da Mao, are you back?"

Cao Yue knew that he couldn't make any trouble tonight.

Xu Damao said cheerfully, "I just came back from showing a movie at the commune this afternoon and heard the news. I came here to find out what's going on."

Cao Yue told the two of them the results of the investigation.

Xu Damao was disappointed: "So Yi Zhonghai is fine?"

Cao Yue said: "Da Mao, Yi Zhonghai is fine, but I think you are in big trouble."

Xu Damao said nonchalantly, "Me? What does it have to do with me? I have been showing movies in the countryside these past two days, and thousands of people in the commune can testify for me."

Cao Yue shook his head: "I didn't kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me. Have you ever heard of this saying?"

"The deaf old lady committed suicide in despair because of her paralysis. Do you think Sha Zhu will blame you for her death?"

"Last time you beat him severely, and this time you indirectly killed the deaf old lady. Adding new hatred and old grudges together, do you think Sha Zhu will let you go?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao swallowed and looked panicked.

He knew that what Cao Yue said was right and Sha Zhu would definitely fight him to the death.

"Xiao E, my sister is getting married soon, so I have to go back to my parents' house to help. I'll stay there for the time being. If you don't get along with them, don't go. I'll be back in a few days."

Xu Damao decided to go out and hide for a few days.

Come back after the storm has passed.

Cao Yue looked at Xu Damao who was fleeing in panic, feeling neither amused nor helpless.

He just couldn't stand Xu Damao's gloating face, so he said a few words to scare him, but he didn't expect him to be so timid.

However, Lou Xiao'e thought Cao Yue did it on purpose.

There were tears in her eyes as she looked at Cao Yue affectionately and smiled charmingly.

Got it!

Cao Yue knew.

I still can't avoid making mistakes.

……

Cao Yue took care of the deaf old lady's funeral.

This is also mentioned in the will.

Cao Yue took the house and the things, so naturally he would not go back on his word.

It was done in a grand manner, and it also settled a cause and effect.

As the New Year approached, Cao Yue began to visit his cheap dad's comrades with the fish and game he had caught.

After the steel rolling mill closed for the holiday, Su Rong also had her winter vacation.

She returned to the courtyard with Han Ziyan.

This year Han Ziyan will celebrate the New Year with us.
