He Daqing shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't know either. When the Military Control Commission first existed, it was very strict about this. Many people who had done things for the Japanese were either shot or imprisoned."

He Yushui burst into tears when she heard this and said, "Dad, let's not sue. I don't want Dad to be shot, wuwu..."

Looking at his crying little daughter, He Daqing gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "No, Yi Zhonghai can bully me, but he can't bully my daughter. The worst that can happen is that I will die with him."

Hearing this, He Yushui hugged He Daqing's arm and choked up, "Dad, I don't want to vent my anger. I just want Dad to be safe and sound."

He Daqing's eyes turned red when he heard this, and he thought of the grievances his daughter had suffered in the past few years. He felt so painful that he said in a hoarse voice, "Be good, Yushui. Dad will be fine."

Sha Zhu also advised: "Dad, why don't you just forget it? Yi Zhonghai has done so many immoral things, he will get his comeuppance sooner or later. Let's not bother with him. I'll go to the police station with you to withdraw the case later."

At this time, Auntie Yi and the deaf old lady came in. He Daqing stood up and asked, "Why are you here, old lady?"

The deaf old lady looked at He Daqing with a complicated expression for a while, then sighed and said, "Daqing, some things are over and done with, so why bother to make a big deal out of it? Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the children. Are you going to let the rain pillar watch you get liquidated?"

He Daqing's eyes turned red when he heard this and he said, "Old lady, look at the wicked things Yi Zhonghai has done. How can I possibly forgive him? There is no room for negotiation. I must drag Yi Zhonghai with me even if I die. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of Xiuhe?"

When the deaf old lady mentioned Xiuhe, her eyes turned red and she sighed, "Daqing, as long as people are alive, it is better than anything else. If there was a way, who would be willing to let you leave the city? Think about it carefully. I'll go to the police station to calm Zhonghai down first to prevent him from talking nonsense." After that, she was helped out of the yard by Aunt Yi.

He Yushui suddenly ran out of the house and went straight to the west wing.

Before he even entered the room, he called out, "Is Sister Qingya here? I have something to ask you."

Lin Ping, who had just come back from watching the excitement in the house, smiled and said, "How is it? The rain is coming."

Lin Qingya looked at He Yushui who ran in anxiously and asked, "Are you in trouble?"

He Yushui didn't have time to argue with Lin Qingya at the moment, so she quickly told him about He Daqing and said, "Sister Qingya, if Yi Zhonghai tells this, will my father be shot?"

After hearing this, Lin Ping and the other two realized that this was the reason why He Daqing left Sijiu City. However, Lin Ping understood that He Daqing must have been in serious trouble, otherwise he would not have survived even if he had fled to Baocheng.

So he smiled and said, "Yushui, don't worry, call your father over and I will ask him in detail."

Upon hearing this, He Yushui ran out of the house again, and soon He Daqing and Sha Zhu followed.

He Daqing first clasped his fists and said, "Pingzi, Uncle He thanks you for taking care of Yu Shui over the years."

Lin Ping waved his hand and said with a smile: "Uncle He, you are too polite. Yu Shui is also my sister, so it is only natural for me to help her. There is no need for us to be polite. Let's talk about your business first."

He Daqing told his story again. Lin Ping laughed and said, "Uncle He, you are really worrying too much. If you really have something wrong, do you think it's okay if you run to defend the city?"

He Daqing was startled when he heard this, but then he realized that if he really had something wrong, he would have been wanted long ago, and even if he ran to Baocheng, he would be caught back. So he said in surprise: "Pingzi, are you saying that I'm fine, and I scared myself?"

Lin Ping asked with a smile: "Are you cooking for them voluntarily?"

He Daqing shook his head like a rattle and said, "Grandma, if I wasn't afraid of harming my wife and children, I wouldn't cook for those bastards."

Lin Ping spread his hands and said, "That's it. You were also a victim. If you were to argue like that, how many people would have to be shot? But there's one thing I have to ask you. You are the descendant of Tan's cuisine, which is also known as official cuisine. So are you really a third-generation hired farmer?"

When Lin Ping was reading the comments, someone raised this point, so he asked this question.

He Daqing laughed when he heard this and said, "Pingzi, this cannot be faked. Everyone in the courtyard was watching. My family has been hired farmers for three generations. When it came to my generation, my father paid for me to learn cooking. I was favored by the master and only then did I learn the Tan family dishes. But I can't be considered a true descendant of Tan family dishes."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "That's fine. You can sue Yi Zhonghai without any worries."

Once his worries were gone, He Daqing said bitterly, "I will definitely not let this bastard go."

After finishing his talk, He Daqing said to Lin Ping: "It's really too late today. I will treat your whole family to dinner tomorrow. Thank you for your help with Yu Shui."

Lin Ping waved his hands and said, "Uncle He, it's not that I don't want to eat. I also want to try Uncle He's cooking, but it's a different time now, and we don't know where to get food. We'd better keep to ourselves. There are no good people in this courtyard."

He Daqing felt that what Lin Ping said made sense, and nodded, "Okay, when there's a chance in the future, let Zhuzi prepare a table of Tan's dishes for you."

Jia family.

When Jia Zhang saw Yi Zhonghai being arrested, she was worried. If Yi Zhonghai was gone, who would help their family? So she muttered, "Why did He Daqing come back? He is just looking for trouble. What will happen to our family if Yi Zhonghai is arrested?"

Qin Huairu's eyes were also filled with sorrow, but fortunately there was Sha Zhu. As long as Sha Zhu didn't get married, she still had hope. She was just afraid that He Daqing would come back and not leave. If He Daqing didn't leave, how could she plot against Sha Zhu under He Daqing's nose?

What she didn't know was that at this moment, He Daqing was beating He Jia Sha Zhu with a belt, and while beating him he was cursing, "You little bastard, you have become so powerful, and you are still having an affair with the widow. No wonder you still don't have a wife."

Sha Zhu dodged and said, "Why am I unclear with the widow? It was because I felt sorry for her and Yi Zhonghai tricked her into helping her. What right do you have to blame me? You still ran away with the widow anyway."

He Daqing staggered in anger when he heard this. He Yushui quickly supported He Daqing and said to Sha Zhu, "Silly brother, please don't make our dad angry."

He Daqing couldn't catch up any more, so he sat down panting and said, "Zhu Zi, don't deny it. I know what kind of person you are, but you are the only one who helps the needy? You can fool others, but you almost fooled your father. If you really want to help the needy, there are so many needy families in our courtyard, why don't you help them, but help the widow? Do you really think that the people in the courtyard can't see your little tricks? It's just that they don't say anything, and they just watch you being fooled by Yi Zhonghai and the widow."

Sha Zhu was startled when he heard this, and then he said unconfidently: "Dad, it's not as bad as you say. I just have a crush on Qin Huairu, so I just helped her. It's not as dirty as you say."

He Daqing sneered when he heard this, "No one knows a child better than his father. How can I not know what you are thinking? Don't you think that just because of this matter, do you see anyone suggesting marriage to you? You are not a child anymore, how can you not understand what is going on here?"

Sha Zhu was speechless for a moment when he heard this. He also knew that there were rumors about him and Qin Huairu outside. Now that He Daqing said this, he understood and said with a red face: "Okay, I won't have any contact with the Jia family in the future, okay?"

He Daqing's expression eased a little after hearing this and he said, "Zhu Zi, Dad won't harm you. If you delay any longer, you won't be able to marry a widow. If things go wrong, the He family will be wiped out."

At this time, Qin Huairu pushed the door open and said, "Uncle He is back. I am the daughter-in-law of the Jia family next door. I came here to see if Uncle He is back and if there is anything I can help with."

Qin Huairu really couldn't stay at home, for she was afraid that He Daqing would stay in the city. How could she plot against Sha Zhu then?

He Daqing was stunned when he saw Qin Huairu, and thought to himself that Qin Huairu really had the capital, no wonder his silly son was thinking about her, just looking at her pair of peach blossom eyes made him feel moved.

But he couldn't let Sha Zhu be tricked, so he smiled and said, "Jia's wife, there's nothing to do at home, so you can go back first."

Qin Huairu saw He Daqing's cold expression and knew that he didn't like her. However, she didn't forget the purpose of her visit and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll go back first. By the way, Uncle He, when are you leaving? Come to my house for dinner before you leave."

He Daqing immediately understood what the young widow was thinking. She was afraid that he would stay in Sijiu City and not leave, so he said calmly, "When we leave depends on when Yi Zhonghai's matter is over."

Qin Huairu got the answer she wanted, turned around and went home with her big butt twisted.

He Daqing turned to Sha Zhu and asked, "Zhu Zi, do you know why the young widow came to our house?"

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu scratched his head and said, "What purpose could there be? He just came here to show some courtesy as a neighbor."

He Daqing reached out and tapped Shazhu, laughing angrily, "Shazhu, how could I not know what kind of moral character the Jia family has? How could they possibly invite me to dinner? Do they have enough to eat these days? How could they have spare food to treat me? She is here to test me. Sigh, you have to be more careful when I am not in the courtyard, otherwise the young widow will plot against you sooner or later."

Sha Zhu was puzzled when he heard this and asked, "What is Qin Huairu trying to test?"

He Daqing looked at He Yushui with the intention of testing him and asked, "Yushui, can you understand what's going on here? If you can, tell your brother the purpose of Qin Huairu's visit to our house."

He Yushui thought for a while and said, "Dad, Qin Huairu came to our house to find out when Dad will leave Sijiu City."

He Daqing smiled with relief when he heard this and said, "My Yu Shui is still smarter, much better than your silly brother."

Sha Zhu looked at He Yushui puzzledly and asked, "What does when our father left have to do with Sister Qin?"

Seeing that Sha Zhu was still calling her Sister Qin, He Yushui rolled her eyes and said, "She wants to know whether our father will stay in Sijiu City. If our father stays in Sijiu City, she will have to find another way to support the family. Otherwise, how can she plot against you with our father around? How will her family live then?"

He Daqing laughed and said, "Okay, Yu Shui, I'm glad you can understand. This way I can leave without any worries. In the future, remind your brother more often in the yard, so that he won't be tricked by others."

He Yushui's eyes turned red when she heard this: "Dad, can you please not leave?"

He Daqing's face turned red when he heard this. Regardless of whether the White Widow was sincere to him or just wanted him to help her, he liked this woman who was nearly ten years younger than him and was reluctant to leave her.

So he smiled bitterly and said, "Yushui, Dad is working in Baocheng now, and he and your Aunt Bai have also obtained their marriage certificate. If he comes back to Sijiucheng, not only will it be difficult to arrange work, but we won't be able to accommodate him. But don't worry, Dad will come back to see you when he has time. If you miss me, go to Baocheng to see me."
