Siheyuan: The Qing Dynasty is back

The outcome of this incident was beyond everyone's expectations.

Many people thought that Yi Zhonghai would be imprisoned for a few years at most and would be able to come back, but they never thought that he would just disappear like that.

At the same time, it also severely stimulated some people who usually acted arrogantly and were unreasonable.

Among them was the shrew Jia Zhang.

After returning to the Jia family, Jia Zhang kept patting her chest and said with lingering fear: "Oh my god, Yi Zhonghai is so unlucky this time. He was actually dragged to the target shooting. It's so scary!"

Qin Huairu glanced at her and said with some gloating: "Mom, you have to be more careful in the future. Now is different from before. The eldest uncle is gone and there is no one to protect our family. If you offend everyone in the yard again, no one will help us."

Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu and scolded, "Do I need a damned girl like you to teach me a lesson? Just take care of yourself! Don't think I don't know about the shit you did? If it weren't for the fact that you did it for the sake of stick, I would have kicked you out long ago."

"You better be careful in the future. If you ruin the reputation of my Jia family, I will definitely drive you back to your village to farm. My Banggeng will never recognize a shameless mother like you!"

After cursing, Jia Zhang turned around angrily and lay down on the kang.

Do you really think she is stupid? With Qin Huairu's salary, where did she get so many food coupons and meat coupons? The family has been getting more and more food recently, and the previous mixed grains have been slowly replaced with coarse grains.

If it weren't for the fact that Qin Huairu could bring food and meat to the family, she would have kicked Qin Huairu out long ago.

Qin Huairu was speechless after being scolded by Jia Zhang. She thought what she did was very secret, but she didn't expect that Jia Zhang had already had suspicions.

This made Qin Huairu feel like she was caught stealing.

I think I should be more careful in the future and never bring things home so blatantly again. Otherwise, if the neighbors find out, how will I live?

At night, the old lady woke up slowly under the care of the deaf old lady.

Although the deaf old lady could not hear, she was very smart. Through her observations over the past few days, she was able to guess what was going on.

She said to the haggard aunt, "Old Yi's family, although Old Yi can't come back, you still have to cheer up. You still have Xiao Huaihua to take care of, you can't let this matter tire you out."

After hearing this, the old lady hugged the deaf old lady and burst into tears.

The deaf old lady patted her on the shoulder and said, "If you ask me, let's leave here and start a new life somewhere where no one knows us. You will never be able to hold your head up high facing all those rumors here every day, and Xiao Huaihua will also be bullied and looked down upon in the future."

"We, orphans and widows, can no longer stay in this courtyard. Old Yi has offended many people before, and there is no place for us to stay here."

When the aunt heard this, she immediately looked at the deaf old lady in surprise, wondering why she could say such a thing?

The deaf old lady looked at the surprised aunt and continued, "Let's find a rural village and build a few mud houses. When Xiao Huaihua grows up, we can find her a live-in son-in-law, so that we can continue to provide for Old Yi."

"But here, we have no one to rely on and no job. We can't survive on my subsidy. It's better to go to the countryside now, where we can always have food to eat. Then you can sell my houses and we can save some money."

The more the deaf old lady spoke, the more surprised the aunt became.

You know, many people are trying their best to move to the city now, and I have never seen anyone give up their city household registration and move to the countryside.

Just like Jia Zhangshi, she is shameless and refuses to go back to the city. If anyone dares to ask her to go back to the countryside, it would be more painful than killing her.

But what the deaf old lady said made sense. Without Yi Zhonghai, the three orphans and widows, old and young, really had no way to survive in the courtyard.

Besides, after this incident, no one knows how others will look at them. When Xiao Huaihua grows up and knows that she has a grandfather who was shot, no one knows whether she will still recognize them.

After all, Qin Huairu lives right next to them. What if they don't recognize them and go back to Qin Huairu, then wouldn't all her efforts be in vain?

It just so happened that Auntie's hometown was not far from Sijiu City, but she had been following Yi Zhonghai for all these years and had hardly any contact with that place. If she could go back to her hometown, she still had relatives there, which should be much better than here.

The old lady, who was moved by what the deaf old lady said, turned around and looked at the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady understood the look in the aunt's eyes. She nodded, turned around and went back to the house to get the title deed of the house. She said, "Don't make this public for now. Go ask Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui. They are the only ones in the courtyard who are in short supply of houses. See how much they can offer. If it's suitable, we'll sell it to them."

The old lady took the house deed and nodded with mixed feelings.

The next day, the aunt went next door to discuss with Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong was recently taken over by his son Liu Guangqi. Decades of family assets were taken away by Liu Guangqi. Where would he get the money to buy a house?

Besides, he only has those two sons who have no future. Liu Haizhong doesn't want to take care of them at all. How could he borrow money to buy a house for them?

So at Liu Haizhong's house, the aunt was frustrated and the other party didn't even bother to discuss the matter with him.

There was no choice but for the aunt to go to Yan Bugui's house again.

Yan Bugui was very eager to buy it. After all, his eldest son Yan Jiechengdu was already in his twenties and had not yet married.

If he could have a house, it would be easier for his son to find a wife.

But due to his stingy personality, he offered a price that even the aunt herself could hardly accept: only two hundred yuan for three houses.

Logically speaking, although houses are not valuable at this time, they should still cost at least 200 yuan per room.

The deaf old lady's house is the best house in the entire courtyard, except for the three main rooms of Sha Zhu's house.

Three rooms would cost at least 600 yuan. Even if it were a little cheaper, the lowest price that an old lady and a deaf woman would think of would not be less than 500 yuan.

But Yan Bugui saw that they had to leave and insisted on the price without negotiation.

The aunt turned around and left Yan Bugui's house angrily.

They haven't even left yet, but these people are already trying to take advantage of them. If they continue to live here, who knows how they will be bullied in the end?

At this time, the aunt finally made up her mind to leave here and never come back.

The helpless aunt returned home. The deaf old lady looked at her miserable appearance and knew that she had not done her job.

Over the years, she knew the temperaments of these neighbors too well. How many good people were there in the courtyard?

She sighed helplessly and said, "Go find He Daqing. Even though we don't get along with him, he's better than those beasts. He's the only one in this yard who has some humanity. I believe he won't make things difficult for you."
