Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95

Chapter 157 It’s better to carry a gun

Ever since Sha Zhu listened to the old lady, he hasn't brought his lunch box to the factory for some time. Yi Zhonghai saw it and was worried, but he didn't dare to say anything.

If it were any other time, he would have used words like "take care of your sister Qin" to trick Sha Zhu, but now Sha Zhu cooks and eats at the old lady's house every day, and even He Yushui doesn't have the chance to go over for a meal, let alone Qin Huairu?

If this silly sister Qin dared to go to the old lady's house to beg for food, the best result would probably be a scolding. This also caused the quality of the Jia family's food to plummet, and even the gas tank had a green face.

That's why Jia Zhang came uninvited today. Seeing the delicious dishes being served on the table, she really couldn't help herself.

"Uncle, why didn't you inform your old neighbors about your wedding?"

Jia Zhang was shameless enough. When she saw that the people at the other table were all strangers, she knew they were guests from her mother's family. As a native of the courtyard, she could not sit over there.

He walked quickly to Yi Zhonghai's side, squeezed through his bangs and forced a stool in, ready to eat and drink for free.

Yan Bugui didn't expect Jia Zhang to be so shameless. Besides, the table next to him was full of guests, so he couldn't get angry.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, today is my eldest son Jie Cheng's wedding banquet. If you come to congratulate me, I welcome you, but are you still missing something?"

Old Yan was not easy to talk to, but Third Aunt Yang Ruihua would not tolerate it and nodded at Jia Zhang in a light tone.

"Hey, what are you missing? Oh, I see. It's just a pair of chopsticks. No problem. I'll bring them myself."

After saying this, Jia Zhang slowly took out a pair of chopsticks from her bosom. This action made Zhao Shanhe and Chen Xueru dumbfounded. What a talented person! If he had such intelligence, he would have made a fortune long ago if he did something useful. Why bother about these trivial things?

Yang Ruihua was so angry that his face turned red.

For her, it was impossible to eat for free at Old Yan's house, let alone coming here uninvited.

He stood up and pointed his finger at Jia Zhang's nose and said.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, my family is having a wedding today, and I don't want to argue with you.

I didn't invite you to dinner. If you want to sit at the table, do you have to write a wedding bill?

If you don't want to do the accounting, get off the table right away and don't wait for me to kick you out."

Jia Zhang grinned and had no intention of paying any attention to Yang Ruihua.

She was smart and realized that the three aunts would not dare to do anything to her in this situation, and her family members were watching nearby.

Just as he was about to stretch out his black claws to pick up the dish of chicken stewed with mushrooms, unexpectedly, a Cheng Yaojin appeared to block his way. Zhao Shanhe smiled and did not stand up, but just stopped him with his hand.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, my buddy Jie Cheng is getting married today, are you sure you want to cause trouble?"

Seeing that it was Zhao Shanhe who stopped her, Jia Zhang replied with a grim expression.

"Zhao family boy, this has nothing to do with you, right?

I'm not eating your food. Aren't you meddling too much?"

Zhao Shanhe withdrew his hand, glanced at the old man, and seeing that he had no intention of intervening, he spoke to Jia Zhang again.

“It’s hard to say.

Think about it, if you don't do the accounts but still want to eat for free, Auntie Three will definitely not agree. Will you two then have a quarrel?

My classmate Jie Cheng is getting married today, and you are causing trouble at his wedding banquet. As the deputy chief of the Public Security Department, do I have to take care of it?

If it's just a quarrel, then I can only say a few words to you at most, but if you make trouble, it will be a public security issue, and I can only arrest you and take you back.

If it's more serious and you two start fighting, and you're the one who caused it, not only will you have to compensate the Third Uncle's family for all their losses, but I'll also have to send you to the police station.

Look, in the end, I still have to take care of it, don’t I? "

This set of talk seemed reasonable, but in fact it was obviously biased and nonsense, and it really frightened Jia Zhang.

After glaring at Zhao Shanhe without saying another tough word, Jia Zhang put the chopsticks back into her arms, stood up and went back to the central courtyard.

She also knew who she could and could not offend in the yard. The relationship between Zhao Shanhe and her family had always been very cold. If she fell into the hands of this kid, she would suffer.

People who came from the old society before liberation are most afraid of people who carry guns and those who are in charge. Zhao Shanhe, the deputy chief of the Public Security Department, happens to be both of them.

The third aunt was so relieved to see that Zhao Shanhe sent Jia Zhang away with just a few words. She picked up the bottle of wine and filled it for everyone at the table.

"Come on, come on, don't think about the unpleasantness just now, let's have a drink, and don't go home until you are drunk today.

Shanhe, you are Jie Cheng's best friend, so you have to drink more."

Zhao Shanhe picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Maybe because he was used to drinking Fenjiu, Taizi and Xifeng, this Sanlouzi was really unpalatable.

After the troublemaker Jia Zhang left, everyone felt relieved and started eating and drinking. Only Yi Zhonghai felt unhappy. Zhao Shanhe's power was growing stronger and stronger, and his hope of controlling the compound was becoming increasingly slim.

As the wedding banquet progressed, the guests from Yu Li's maiden's family also found out about Zhao Shanhe's identity and came forward to greet him and toast him. Yu Li's sister Yu Haitang's eyes sparkled when she saw Zhao Shanhe's handsome appearance.

However, Zhao Shanhe kept his distance from this woman. One reason was that he already had Chen Xueru, and having affairs with men and women these days would result in being shot.

Another reason is that this person is too mischievous and it would be very troublesome if you provoke him.

In the TV series, this guy even dumped Yang Liming's nephew.

Moreover, she was Yu Shui's classmate. The little girls at that time were different from those in later generations. Many girls who graduated from junior high school in the 21st century had figures similar to those of adults.

However, the junior high school girls of that era all had skinny figures, which really did not interest Zhao Shanhe. He liked plump girls, otherwise he would not have married Chen Xueru.

When the banquet was over, Zhao Shanhe didn't drink too much, mainly because there was only one bottle of Sanlou on the table, and each person only had two glasses.

In the afternoon, Chen Xueru was going to Niu Ye's house to look at old things. Zhao Shanhe had nothing to do, so he went with her.

Uncle Niu lives in a nice place, not far from Caijia Hutong to Meishi Street. When Chen Xueru brought Zhao Shanhe to the gate of the yard, Uncle Niu was already waiting at the door. Chen Xueru introduced Uncle Niu to them.

"Uncle Niu, this is my wife, she works in the steel mill."

Zhao Shanhe also bowed out of respect.

"Hello, Master Niu, my name is Zhao Shanhe."

Uncle Niu was an old bannerman from Sijiu City. Although his family had fallen on hard times, he had seen a lot of the world. After greeting Zhao Shanhe, they became close friends in just a few words.

Because there were many people at the door, they said a few words and then went into the yard together.

Some shadows of the cross-courtyard can still be vaguely seen in this yard, and it must have had a nice view in the past.

But now they have all been converted into residential houses. There is no other way. The housing situation in the old city is too tight, and it is impossible for these rich people to play with the rockery, strange rocks and so on of the past.

Following Uncle Niu along the gravel road in the yard for a short distance, Zhao Shanhe saw Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, in front of a wing room. It seemed that these two people were also here to buy old items.

I walked up to Cai Quanwu and said hello. As for Xu Huizhen, I wasn't familiar with her, so it was better for me to say less.
