Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

Chapter 106 Self-deception

Yi Zhonghai was silent for a moment, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.

"Old Yan, actually, only the two of us know about this matter now. If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who else would know about it?"

Perhaps because he was afraid that Yan Bugui was timid, he quickly added,

"Besides, if we take it, we can also take care of Sha Zhu. He is now at the right age to get married. When the time comes, you can introduce him to a good family, and you won't feel guilty."

The third uncle Yan Bugui's mouth twitched. If Ye Wenwu and Sha Zhu were not in the room hiding inside, he might have really agreed to this condition.

Just like Yi Zhonghai said, at worst the worst could happen to him: treat him better in the future, find a good family to marry Sha Zhu to, and let the He family continue the family line. Thinking of this, Third Uncle Yan Bugui felt a little regretful, but he quickly suppressed it deep in his heart.

Ye Wenwu and Sha Zhu kissed for a long time in the room. Especially because of Yi Zhonghai's aggressive words, Sha Zhu wanted to rush out and confront Yi Zhonghai face to face.

However, he was stopped by Ye Wenwu, who wanted to see what other ideas Yi Zhonghai could come up with.

"How's it going, Old Yan?"

Yi Zhonghai pressed forward step by step, and his deep eyes had already noticed some unusual movements on Yan Bugui's part.

"Lao Yi, for all the years we've been together, you should explain this matter to Sha Zhu yourself. I won't tell anyone else and just pretend I didn't see it. If Sha Zhu still doesn't know about this, I will definitely tell him."

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, shook his head, his face falling.

Seeing that he was not attracted by Yan Bugui at all, Yi Zhonghai felt a little frustrated.

Yi Zhonghai was still not willing to let Sha Zhu hand over several thousand dollars like this, but now that Yan Bugui already knew about it, he could only calm Yan Bugui down first. He wanted to see if Sha Zhu had any way to get away with it. When Yan Bugui asked, Sha Zhu would just say that he had given it to him. Anyway, Yan Bugui didn't dare to say anything about the problem and could only eavesdrop.

"Okay, since you are like this, Old Yan, then I will listen to you. I will talk to Sha Zhu about this matter, but you have to wait until I have explained it to Sha Zhu clearly."

The third uncle Yan Bugui didn't think much about it. He thought that Yi Zhonghai realized that what he did was wrong after listening to his persuasion.

"Then I..."

Yi Zhonghai pointed to the newly-unpacked building on the table.

"Old Yi, explain the matter clearly to Sha Zhu and the other guy, and I will naturally hand over the letter to you when the time comes."

The third uncle Yan Bugui shook his head, stuffed the letters on the table into his pocket, and then put them in his arms.

Yi Zhonghai didn't get the letter and could only sigh helplessly.

"Old Yan, I won't eat this dinner. I have to talk to Sha Zhu about this matter later. I'll leave first."

After saying this, he opened the door and left in a hurry without waiting for Yan Bugui to speak.

The third uncle Yan Bugui stared at Yi Zhonghai's back thoughtfully.

"Uncle, this Yi Zhonghai is quite shrewd."

When Ye Wenwu and Sha Zhu heard that Yi Donghai had left, they hurriedly opened the door.

Sha Zhu looked confused.

"Third Uncle, First Uncle just said that he would talk to me about this matter later, but why did he do this in the end?"

Sha Zhu originally hated Uncle Yi Zhonghai, after all, he had hidden the letters his father sent to him for more than ten years.

But when Yi Zhonghai finally said that he would talk it over with him, he remembered the scene when an old man helped him and his sister after his father passed away. To be honest, he felt very conflicted at that moment.

"I believe in Lao Yi's character. He will definitely explain this matter to Sha Zhu in person. Wenwu, I still don't believe Lao Yi would do such a thing."

The third uncle Yan Bugui spoke up to defend Yi Zhonghai.

"Silly Zhu, Lao Yi just said that he would explain everything to you, so don't rush to the uncle's house and ask him by yourself."

Sha Zhu nodded. One of them was his biological father, but he had abandoned them for more than ten years.

One is the godfather or godmother who raised them after being abandoned by their biological father.

At this time, Sha Zhu was also certain that Yi Donghai would not covet the money his father sent him, and said to Ye Wenwu with a firm face:

"Ye Wenwu, although there are some grievances between you and me, I still trust the master in this matter. Unfortunately, your instigation is useless."

The corner of Shazhu's mouth showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

Ye Wenwu rolled his eyes at him. He had seen stupid people, but he had never seen two people as stupid as these two.

It's so obvious, but I still don't believe it and I'm still deceiving myself.

"Haha, whether you believe it or not is up to you. Anyway, I, Ye Wenwu, did not interfere in this matter. It's up to you what you want to do."

"I'm just hungry, so I'll go back for dinner. Bye, both of you."

After hearing what Ye Wenwu said, the third uncle Yan Bugui always felt that something was wrong. He could only suppress his doubts and patted Sha Zhu's arm.

"Your uncle can still be trusted. I guess Lao Yi will talk to you personally about this matter tonight. In fact, no matter how you do this, after all, it was your uncle who raised you."

Sha Zhu nodded heavily. Ever since his father abandoned them, only the uncle and aunt, and the deaf old lady in the whole compound treated them better.

Moreover, decades have passed, and they still don't have very deep feelings for their fathers, and they still feel a little resentful towards their fathers in their hearts.

"How about it?"

Seeing Ye Wenwu coming back, cousin Zhang Xingbang asked.

Ye Wenwu shook his head.

"These people still count on Yi Zhonghai's character."

"What?"

A hundred thousand questions popped up in cousin Zhang Xingbang’s mind?

It's so obvious, and at this time, you still believe in Yi Zhonghai's character. What kind of character does Yi Zhonghai have? I was speechless for a moment.

"Are they so stupid? Aren't they curious at all? Why did Yi Zhonghai hide it? If I knew that someone never gave me the envelope that my father had sent to me for more than ten years, I would want to kill him."

Ye Wenwu touched his nose.

"Cousin, you also said it was you. Since they are so willing to believe it, then let them believe it. They will regret it later."

"After all, they believed in Yi Zhonghai's character and gave him a chance to breathe. Since they are so willing to believe in self-deception, we should stay away from them."

Cousin Zhang Xingbang nodded in agreement.
