Siheyuan: Being a fisherman in 1962

Now it seems that Chen Fei is not only talented and smart, but also has a strong background and means.

But Sha Zhu is just an ordinary chef who works hard every day to make a living.

However, things have come to this point, Qin Huairu can only do her best to resolve the conflict.

She found Jia Zhang and told her about Sha Zhu's situation.

After hearing this, Jia Zhang also felt very guilty and uneasy. She understood that all this was caused by her impulse and selfishness.

In the end, under Qin Huairu's persuasion, Jia Zhang reluctantly agreed to apologize to Sha Zhu.

She came to the door of Shazhu's bedroom, took a deep breath, and then knocked on the door gently...

At the same time, Fade Chen was also watching all this silently.

There was a cunning gleam in his eyes, as if everything was under his control.

Knowing that his revenge plan had achieved initial success, all he had to do now was wait patiently for Shazhu's collapse and surrender.

However, in the process, Chen Fei also realized that his decision had affected his relationship with Yu Li, Teacher Ran, and Lou Xiao'e.

Start to wonder if you are really willing to sacrifice everything for revenge?

Does he have any other options?

Night fell again and the courtyard fell into silence again.

However, in this seemingly peaceful night, countless secrets and conspiracies are hidden.

And Sha Zhu's dream continued with his feelings for Qin Huairu and his fear of Jia Zhang.

……

There was still a dim light on in Shazhu's room.

He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, and always felt an inexplicable sense of depression in his heart.

Suddenly, an ear-piercing scream pierced the night sky. Sha Zhu sat up abruptly, his eyes widened and his face turned pale.

Outside the window, an old and ferocious face was looming. It was Jia Zhang's face!

Her eyes were cold and vicious, as if she wanted to eat Shazhu alive.

Sha Zhu's heart trembled suddenly, a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he couldn't help but let out a scream of fear.

The scream, like a thunderclap, instantly woke up the residents in the courtyard.

They were all awakened from their sleep, rubbing their sleepy eyes and complaining about the sudden noise.

As the elder man in the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai was the first to walk out of the door and walked towards Sha Zhu's room with a frown.

"Shazhu, what's wrong with you? Why are you screaming in the middle of the night?" Yi Zhonghai knocked on Shazhu's door in dissatisfaction, with a hint of blame in his voice.

Sha Zhu opened the door tremblingly and explained with a pale face: "Uncle Yi, I...I had a nightmare."

"Having a nightmare?" Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu in confusion, obviously dissatisfied with his explanation.

Other residents also gathered around and expressed their dissatisfaction with Sha Zhu's screams.

"Silly Zhu, why are you yelling so late at night? Can't you let me sleep?"

"That's right, your dream was so scary that we were all woken up by you."

Facing everyone's accusations and complaints, Sha Zhu smiled bitterly. He knew that his explanation was just an excuse in the eyes of these people.

He took a deep breath and tried to describe the scene in his dream in detail.

"I... I dreamed of Jia Zhang. She was standing outside my window, looking at me with vicious eyes. I was so scared that I couldn't help but scream." Sha Zhu's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into almost a whisper.

When everyone heard this, a look of confusion appeared on their faces.

They knew that Jia Zhang was a shrew in the courtyard who was arrogant and unreasonable on weekdays, but she wouldn't be so scared that Sha Zhu would scream, right?

What's more, how could Jia Zhang appear outside Sha Zhu's window in the middle of the night?

This is simply nonsense!

"Shazhu, did you have a quarrel with Jia Zhang during the day? That's why you had this kind of dream at night?" someone speculated.

"No, I didn't quarrel with her." Sha Zhu quickly denied, "I really don't know why I had this dream."

At this moment, Qin Huairu squeezed out from the crowd. Looking at Sha Zhu's frightened expression, she couldn't help feeling a trace of pity in her heart.

She knew that although Sha Zhu was usually careless and not particular about details, he was actually a kind and sensitive person in his heart.

She walked over to Shazhu, patted his shoulder gently, and comforted him, "Shazhu, don't be afraid. Jia Zhang may have just passed by your window unintentionally, and she didn't mean any harm."

Qin Huairu's words made Sha Zhu feel a little relieved, but the fear in his heart did not completely dissipate.

He looked up at Qin Huairu, his eyes full of confusion and puzzlement: "Sister Qin, why do you think Jia Zhang treated me like this? I have never offended her."

Qin Huairu sighed and shook her head helplessly: "Silly Zhu, some things in this world are hard to explain. Maybe Jia Zhang just doesn't like you."

At this moment, a sarcastic voice suddenly rang out from the crowd: "Maybe Shazhu did something bad? That's why he had this nightmare."

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look, only to see Fade Chen standing in the crowd with a gloating look on his face and a mocking smile on his face.

Sha Zhu was furious, staring at Chen Fei and cursing, "What nonsense are you talking about? When have I ever done anything wrong?"

Chen Fei shrugged nonchalantly: "Who knows, Silly Zhu. You are a well-known 'young fool' in our courtyard. Who knows if you will get carried away and do something out of line one day?"

Sha Zhu was so angry that his face turned red. He took a step forward and wanted to argue with Chen Fei, but was stopped by Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu looked at Chen Fei and said coldly, "Chen Fei, stop stirring up trouble here. We all know what kind of person Sha Zhu is. There is no need for you to make irresponsible remarks here."

Chen Fei's face froze after hearing what Qin Huairu said. He looked at the people around him and found that they were all looking at him with dissatisfaction. He immediately lowered his head guiltily.

Qin Huairu turned to look at Sha Zhu and said softly, "Sha Zhu, don't bother with him. I will help you deal with Jia Zhang's matter. Go back and have a rest first and stop thinking about it."

Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu gratefully, nodded, and turned back to his room.

As the night deepened, the courtyard returned to peace again, but the shadow in Sha Zhu's heart was hard to dissipate for a long time...

Occasionally, there are the barking of dogs not far away and the footsteps of people returning home at night in the distance.

Sha Zhu stood in front of his house, feeling an inexplicable chill in his heart.

All of this originated from the mysterious man he had never met - Chen Fei.

Chen Fei, this name is both unfamiliar and familiar to Sha Zhu.

I have never met this person, but I always receive reminders from Chen Fei at critical moments.

Last night, Chen Fei appeared in his dream again and told him to be careful of Jia Zhang's revenge.

Jia Zhang, the woman who once caused him endless pain, has now become an eternal nightmare in his heart.

Sha Zhu took a deep breath and opened the door.

Looking around, I secretly felt lucky.

Everything was normal at home, nothing unusual.

He closed the door gently, walked to the bed, and prepared to lie down and rest.

However, just as he was about to fall asleep, the hideous face of Jia Zhang suddenly appeared in his mind.

"No! I can't fall asleep like this!" Sha Zhu sat up suddenly, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead.

We can't just let fear control us.

A way must be found to banish this nightmare.

Just then, he saw the kitchen knife next to the pillow.

That was the tool he usually used to cut vegetables, but at this moment it became his only support.

He carefully placed the kitchen knife under his pillow, as if this would keep the evil spirit of Jia Zhang out of the door.
