Rebirth He Yuzhu I am a family man

Chapter 36: Hit with one punch

The afterglow of dusk sprinkled on the quaint courtyard, and He Yuzhu walked into the courtyard with two lunch boxes in his hands. Because Fengze Garden was not very busy today, He Yuzhu's master Luo Jianrong considered that he had been injured and had just recovered, and was worried that he would be tired and hurt his body, so he sent him off work early.

When He Yuzhu passed by the corridor in the front yard, he heard the aunties and grandmas in the courtyard talking about "Today, Qin Huairu and so on..." However, he had infinite hatred for the Jia family and Qin Huairu, and had no interest in the Jia family's troubles. Therefore, he quickened his pace back to the backyard to avoid bringing bad luck to the Jia family.

When He Yuzhu had just left the corridor in the middle courtyard and was about to reach the Moon Gate, a loud shout came from behind him, "He Yuzhu..."

He Yuzhu recognized that it was Jia Dongxu who was shouting. He frowned and thought, "No one in the Jia family is good. Don't bother me no matter what..." He went straight back to the backyard without stopping for a moment.

He Yuzhu handed the lunch box in his hand to Li Cuilan, and said jokingly to the deaf old lady who was taking a ventilated breath in the pavilion, "Old lady, I'm going to go back to the house to rest for a while. When the food is ready, please come and call me, old lady with agile legs and feet!"

"My dear grandson! I appreciate your good wishes. I also hope that my legs and feet will become more and more agile! Go and take a rest. The food will be served soon." The deaf old lady looked at He Yuzhu lovingly and spoke with a smile.

Jia Dongxu was waiting for He Yuzhu to come back. When he saw He Yuzhu coming back, he excitedly shouted "He Yuzhu". Unfortunately, it was like a stone sinking into the sea. He Yuzhu didn't react at all. In Jia Dongxu's opinion, this was He Yuzhu looking down on him and ignoring him.

Originally, Jia Dongxu wanted to have a good talk with He Yuzhu, and let He Yuzhu pay several million yuan, so that Qin Huairu's miscarriage would be over. But He Yuzhu's arrogant attitude just now completely hurt Jia Dongxu's fragile self-esteem. He walked into the Jia family kitchen with red eyes and picked up the kitchen knife.

"He Yuzhu, get out of here, I'm going to settle accounts with you..." Jia Dongxu shouted arrogantly towards the east wing with a kitchen knife in his hand. At this moment, Jia Dongxu had the kitchen knife in his hand, which gave him the illusion that the whole world was in his hands.

"Jia boy, stop shouting in front of my Da La Sun's door. It will disturb his rest. Go back quickly!" The deaf old lady was sitting in the pavilion and advised Jia Dongxu impolitely.

"You old woman, what have you got to do here? Not only am I going to argue with him, I'm also going to chop him into pieces later..." Jia Dongxu gestured a few times with the kitchen knife in his hand and said arrogantly.

"Really? I want to see how you chop me up." He Yuzhu just leaned against the bed when he heard Jia Dongxu shouting at the door. He didn't want to pay attention to him, but after hearing him yelling at the deaf old lady so recklessly, he wanted to see why Jia Dongxu was so arrogant.

He Yuzhu opened the door and looked at Jia Dongxu jokingly. He thought to himself, "As the saying goes, 'One punch is enough to prevent a hundred punches.' If you, Jia Dongxu, dare to make a move, I will beat you down to your father."

"He Yuzhu, the meat you gave my Huairu was poisonous. Do you admit it or not?" Jia Dongxu asked loudly, waving the kitchen knife in his hand.

"Get lost, you old clam..." He Yuzhu got angry when he heard Jia Dongxu's senseless questioning and blurted out swear words in disgust.

It's no wonder that Jia Dongxu talked nonsense. No matter whether it was Jia Zhangshi or Qin Huairu who talked to him, they both told him that "He Yushui accompanied Qin Huairu to He Yuzhu's room to get the ham." He thought that Qin Huairu could only take it at will with He Yuzhu's consent.

Jia Dongxu was five years older than He Yuzhu, and he was holding a kitchen knife. When he heard He Yuzhu's foul language and bad attitude, he was so angry that his mind went blank. In his anger, he lost his mind and chopped at He Yuzhu with the kitchen knife.

There is a saying that goes, "If Jia Dongxu doesn't take the road to heaven, he will go there. If the door of the east wing in the backyard is not opened, Jia Dongxu will come there." In a flash, He Yuzhu blocked Jia Dongxu's right hand holding the kitchen knife with his left hand, and he clenched his right hand into a fist and delivered a fatal punch to Jia Dongxu's jaw.

He Yuzhu was born in a family of cooks, so he would never lack food no matter how difficult the environment was. His body was the strongest among those in the courtyard. Although Jia Dongxu was already an adult and Jia Zhang doted on him, how much money could ordinary families have? Compared with He Yuzhu, his body was almost like an embroidered pillow.

Jia Dongxu was hit on the jaw and fell to the ground. He Yuzhu kicked the kitchen knife that fell to the ground into a corner. He Yuzhu saw Jia Dongxu's resentful eyes and instantly thought of the look on his face when Banggeng drove him out of the courtyard in his previous life. He thought, "There is really no good person in the Jia family." He couldn't help but get angry and stepped on Jia Dongxu's crotch.

When Jia Dongxu was kicked for the first time, he was speechless due to the pain. When he was kicked for the second time, he felt like he was going to die. In order to survive, Jia Dongxu used all his strength to shout, "Mom, come and save me, He Yuzhu is going to kill someone!"

Jia Dongxu's shout not only attracted Jia Zhangshi, but also attracted people who liked to join in the fun in the front and middle yards, including the yard masters Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong. However, they were not as fast as Jia Zhangshi.

Just as He Yuzhu was enjoying using his egg-crushing feet to entertain Jia Dongxu, a short and fat middle-aged woman came down from the Moon Gate. When she saw Jia Dongxu lying on the ground being tortured, she didn't care about anything else and rushed towards He Yuzhu like a meat ball.

He Yuzhu had noticed Jia Zhang coming to the backyard from the corner of his eye. When he saw her coming, he bent his left leg and pressed his left knee against Jia Zhang. He Yuzhu made a fist with his right hand and punched Jia Zhang fiercely in the face. Jia Zhang's nose bled and she fell to the ground in fear when she saw that she was bleeding. She rolled over and wailed.

"Jia Gui, please come back soon! The people in the courtyard are going to bully us, an orphan and a widow, to death. Jia Gui, please come back soon, at least I still have you, I want you to accompany me forever. Jia Gui, you are the only one I can rely on..."

Everything happened so fast. When He Daqing, Li Cuilan and He Yushui appeared, everyone in the courtyard rushed into the backyard. The deaf old lady sat in the pavilion calmly, continuing to breathe as if nothing had happened, as if she didn't see anything that happened before.

"Jia Zhang, Jia Dongxu, why are you howling like ghosts? Can you make this courtyard quieter?" The courtyard's uncle Liu Haizhong took the lead and scolded the Jia mother and son in an official tone.

Widow Zhang was a smart woman. She knew that talking to irrelevant people was a waste of her words. She looked at her old lover He Daqing and said sternly, "He Daqing, look at your good son. He almost crushed my Dongxu's little sparrow. Look at how swollen his crotch is. Look at how he beat me. Do I still look like a human being?"

"Are you going to take care of it today or not? If you want to settle it, just pay a few million for medical expenses..."

When the people in the courtyard heard Jia Zhang's huge request, they couldn't help but gasp. They knew that Jia Gui of the Jia family had died of a work-related injury in the steel mill, and the compensation was only 500 to 600 million yuan.

He Daqing stared with dead eyes and was about to speak. He Yuzhu took out 1 yuan from his pocket and held it in his hand. He said loudly: "Who is willing to report to the Security Management Committee? Just say that someone killed someone with a weapon here..."

Yan Bugui squeezed out of the crowd at lightning speed, took the money from He Yuzhu and ran out. He Daqing saw Yan Bugui running away, with no expression on his expressionless face, and looked at the deaf old lady in the pavilion with a pair of dead eyes. He immediately understood in his heart, so he took Li Cuilan back to the west wing in silence.

Just as the people in the courtyard were talking about the Jia family mother and son, Yan Bugui came with the "Security Management Committee" and the two sides talked about the matter. The "Security Management Committee" found the kitchen knife that Jia Dongxu brought from a corner and questioned He Yushui who was watching the excitement.

If the "Security Management Committee" had not come, He Yuzhu really would not have known why the food in his house was gone. After an investigation by the "Security Management Committee" personnel, the truth of the matter immediately surfaced: the Jia family stole the food first, and then something went wrong when he ate at home, so they came with a kitchen knife to retaliate.

During this period, there were many things bigger than neighborhood disputes that urgently needed to be handled by the "Security Management Committee". The "Security Management Committee" members adhered to the principle of "turning big things into small things and small things into nothing" among neighbors, and asked He Yuzhu whether he wanted to handle the matter publicly or privately.

He Yuzhu didn't want to let the Jia family off easily. He thought, "Actually, the public prosecution won't hurt the Jia family. It's just a minor pain for the Jia family." So, he came up with a plan and told the "Security Management Committee" staff, "The ham in our house was given by the famous Lou family. It may not be available on the market for 500 million. In addition, the rice, flour, bacon, etc. stolen by the Jia family, for the sake of the neighbors, the Jia family will just pay 500 million."

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, the "Security Management Committee" personnel left the courtyard alone and went to the Lou family to verify. The person left behind by the "Security Management Committee" advised the Jia family mother and son: "Even if you don't want to settle privately and want to handle it publicly, then you still need to pay for the value of those items."

The "security committee" staff member reported to Lou Tan through the Lou family's concierge and met her. The staff member explained the matter to her in detail. Lou Tan was also angry when she heard that "the ham she gave to He Yuzhu as a New Year gift was stolen by the evil neighbor." She was so angry that she said directly, "This ham was brought back from Italy by a businessman who cooperated with Lou's steel mill. It should not be bought abroad even if you have 1000 million."

After receiving the confirmation, the "Security Management Committee" personnel returned to the courtyard to continue handling the matter. Lou Tan loved He Yuzhu and thought, "He Yuzhu will be sad if his ham was stolen. We still have some in the Lou family's storeroom." So she arranged for a servant to take out a ham and told him to deliver it to He Yuzhu.

Once the "Security Management Committee" staff member returned to the courtyard, things became simple. After repeated persuasion from several elders and the "Security Management Committee" staff members, when Jia Zhang realized that if the case was handled publicly, her beloved son would go to jail, she returned home trembling, took out 500 million yuan, and reluctantly handed it over to the "Security Management Committee" staff member.

He Yuzhu got the money and shouted happily: "He Yushui, you have done a great job this time. Come here, brother will give you some pocket money!" Then he took out 5 yuan and handed it to He Yushui who came running over after hearing the noise.

Jia Zhang was holding Jia Dongxu and hadn't walked far when they heard what He Yuzhu said. They turned around and looked at He Yushui with resentment as she held the money in her little hand...
