Siheyuan, the opening gun is aimed at Yi Zhonghai

Zhou Zheng had a playful and sarcastic expression on his face. His eyes slowly swept over Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Jia Zhangshi and others, and finally stopped at He Yuzhu's face. After staring at him for three seconds, he moved his gaze back to Wang Dongze.

He said calmly, "Uncle Wang, since you already know something about this matter, I will not elaborate on it. First of all, the financial losses caused to me by Yi Zhonghai and others must be accurately assessed and identified. Then, according to the law, those who should be fined must be fined, and those who should be sentenced must be sentenced. No form of reconciliation or interference from any force will be accepted. If other forces come to plead for mercy, you can let me know at any time. I will never let those snakes and rats stir up any waves."

Then, Zhou Zheng continued, "In addition, the cotton clothes and bedding in my room have been damaged to varying degrees. These items are of considerable value. Moreover, there are footprints of children on them. I seriously suspect that it was done by Jia Geng from the Jia family. Please investigate this matter in depth. If the situation is true, you must punish him severely. Isn't there a juvenile correctional facility? As long as you can ensure that he will not die, lock him up until he dies..."

Hearing this, Wang Dongze's mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times, thinking to himself: "Isn't this called not saying too much?"

But he also knew that the residents of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang might have really pissed Zhou Zheng off this time.

Although he still believed deep down that "it is better to resolve a feud than to create one", he had no choice but to arrange and handle the matter according to Zhou Zheng's wishes.

Who made Yi Zhonghai unlucky? Of course, this group of people only deserved it.

Not long after, all the people involved in the case were taken away quickly, and the target was very clear, as long as they were "pig heads", they would be taken away without exception. For a while, the entire No. 95 Nanluoguxiang courtyard became almost empty, and a feeling of deathly silence was vaguely revealed.

At the same time, Zhou Zheng also made an accurate statistics of his financial losses, which amounted to a total of 143 yuan, excluding tables and chairs.

He had no malicious intention to say how much money was lost, because there was no need to do so. 143.7 yuan was more than enough to pay off Yi Zhonghai and others.

After the matter was settled, Zhou Zheng and He Yushui returned to the East Courtyard.

Not long after that, He Yuzhu's wife Yang Xiaoman came to see him.

Zhou Zheng has always had a good impression of Yang Xiaoman, so he naturally wouldn't treat her with a cold face.

"Sister Xiaoman, what's the matter?" He asked even though he knew the answer.

Yang Xiaoman pursed her lips and pretended to be wronged and said, "It's all because of your brother Zhuzi. There were too many people just now, so we couldn't say much, but you really misunderstood your brother Zhuzi this time."

"Your brother Zhuzi and I just returned to the yard today, not much earlier than you and Yushui."

Yang Xiaoman sighed again: "We really didn't know what happened in the Jia family, so... your brother Zhuzi was beaten very unjustly this time."

Zhou Zheng was shocked, blinking non-stop, looking a little embarrassed: "Then why didn't you tell me earlier? You should have told me earlier! Why didn't you tell me earlier..."

He Yushui couldn't help but smile after hearing what Yang Xiaoman said. "It's okay, sister-in-law. My brother has been beaten a lot in the past two years, and he's in good shape! Besides, Director Wang knows him, and he will definitely release him after a while. When we have dinner tonight, let him drink some wine, and he will be full of energy immediately."

He Yuzhu had mentioned the matter of "healing wine" to Yang Xiaoman, so when he heard what He Yushui said, he was not so worried about He Yuzhu, but became curious about the "healing wine".

Zhou Zheng couldn't help laughing, but then he felt that it was inappropriate to laugh at this time, so he immediately restrained his smile and said seriously: "That... Sister-in-law, Yu Shui is right, it's really no big deal. If you don't believe it, you can ask Brother Zhuzi in person when he comes back."

Then, Zhou Zheng cleared his throat and added, "And Yu Shui and I have another good news to tell you all about this trip. Uncle Da Qing will be back in Sijiu City in two days."

When Yang Xiaoman heard the name, the expression on her face suddenly paused. "Master Daqing? You actually found him? Where did you find him?"

She asked several questions in succession, causing Zhou Zheng and He Yushui to smile at each other, and their eyes seemed to be communicating something with each other.

Yang Xiaoman continued, "My father once went to Baoding to look for Master Daqing himself, but in the end he found nothing. So when I heard you mention him, I was so surprised."

He Yushui recalled the scene when she saw He Daqing. She felt a blockage in her heart and pouted her lips. She complained, "It's normal that you can't find him! Brother Zhou and I took a lot of effort to find him."

Then, she frowned, her tone full of dissatisfaction: "Talking about this makes me angry! My father, that stupid guy, followed the White Widow to Baoding. Not long after, he was arranged by the ruthless poisonous widow to work in the coal mine. Every day he could only cook for the miners and had almost no chance to go home. In the blink of an eye, five or six years have passed."

"When Xiao Zhou and I went to look for him, we found that he had lost a lot of weight. If we hadn't brought the letter from the Ministry of Metallurgy with us, we probably wouldn't have been able to see him."

He Yushui's words revealed his heartache for his father's experience and his resentment towards the White Widow.

The reason is obvious. Back then, when He Daqing had not yet left Beijing, he was always keen on instilling some profound truths into He Yushui.

Over time, He Yushui has always believed that his father He Daqing is a very capable person.

Especially when He Daqing taught him how to survive in a slum full of all kinds of "beasts", he admired his father even more.

However, this reunion made He Yushui realize with shock that the image of the smart and capable father in his mind had disappeared, and was replaced by a slightly stupid man.

This huge contrast was really hard for him to bear.

At the same time, He Yushui was extremely angry that Bai Guafu had deceived such an honest and simple father, and secretly cursed Bai Guafu in his heart that she was not worthy of being a human being.

Although Zhou Zheng could understand He Yushui's feelings at the moment, he personally did not agree with this view.

After all, how smart can a person be if he can be easily defeated by Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old woman?

Perhaps all this is just He Yushui's wishful thinking.

This trip to Baoding to look for He Daqing, in addition to allowing He Daqing to return to Beijing after a while, was not without gain.

Most importantly, they successfully obtained He Daqing's recipe.

These recipes not only contain the essence of Tan's cuisine, but also include parts of Sichuan cuisine and Shandong cuisine.

For He Yushui, this was undoubtedly a great harvest.

Yang Xiaoman had not expected that He Daqing's experience would be so tortuous, and she could not help but think of a sentence her father Yang Zaixing often said:

"The sting of a wasp is as poisonous as the heart of a widow."

But she then thought of He Yuzhu's misunderstanding of He Daqing, and seemed to be extremely resentful.

I believe that if He Yuzhu knew his father's situation, he would feel some sympathy and forgive his father a little. After all, a few years ago, He Daqing still knew to send living expenses to Zhuzi and his sister even in such a difficult situation.

This alone should be forgiven.
