Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

Sha Zhu was in no mood to wash up at this moment, so he quickly picked up the washbasin and ran to the old man's house.

"Uncle, uncle, I have no money left."

Seeing an old man named Yi Zhonghai sitting at the table eating breakfast, Sha Zhu hurriedly called out.

Smelling the smell of alcohol on Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai subconsciously frowned.

"Silly Zhu, what's the matter? Don't worry."

Seeing that Uncle Yi Zhonghai was still at home, Sha Zhu's anxious heart was instantly calmed down a little.

"Uncle, they all said you took 400 yuan from me and gave it to that guy to eat. When I was getting ready to wash up in the morning, I took it out and found that I only had 1000 yuan. You know, that thick stack of money was yuan."

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai stood up immediately. He took the 400 yuan in front of everyone in the hospital, and there was no doubt about that.

But now the other 600 yuan from Sha Zhu is gone, so Yi Zhonghai, the old man who just searched Sha Zhu's body, is the prime suspect.

But Yi Zhonghai knew his own situation. He had clearly helped Sha Zhu to bed and had a sleep before sending him back to Old Lady Long. How could he have the time to steal Sha Zhu's money? Besides, the money Sha Zhu saved was not even as much as his daily salary.

"Silly Zhu, I only took 400 yuan from you in front of everyone in the hospital, and I put the rest of the money in your pocket. You should trust your uncle, right? There is no need for me to steal for these few hundred yuan."

Yi Zhonghai started explaining right from the start, for he was afraid that it would appear that he doubted himself.

The difference between this and when Yi Zhonghai gave Jia Zhangshi 400 yuan from his own pocket is that now that the 600 yuan is gone, it’s a big deal.

Although their compound was a bit chaotic, such a large amount of money had never been lost there.

You have to know that if such a huge amount of money is lost, even the people from JD.com’s security department will have no problem with it.

Even though Yi Zhonghai only had to work hard for 6 months to get the money, for those families whose total monthly salary is less than 30 yuan, this amount of money can be earned without eating or drinking for nearly two years.

"Silly Zhu, think about it again. Don't miss any place that looks wrong. Did you go to the bathroom at night?"

Sha Zhu shook his head. He couldn't remember what happened last night at all. Moreover, the tumor on his head was obviously caused by someone knocking him to the ground with a brick.

"Silly Zhu, don't be in a hurry. Just do this for now. Go wash yourself first, and then go to work quietly. After all, if someone steals the 600 yuan, someone will definitely spend it lavishly. We will come back at night after get off work to see who it is. After all, we are from the Central Courtyard, so the thief must be someone from our courtyard."

After thinking about it, Yi Zhonghai comforted Sha Zhu and went to work first.

For a moment, he couldn't figure out who had the motive to steal the remaining 600 yuan.

He took it out in front of everyone last night, so those who were present at the time are all suspects.

But we can't investigate them one by one. If we are discovered by the other party, they may just do nothing and hide.

Sha Zhu could only return to his home feeling aggrieved. He had thought that at least he wouldn't have to worry about money anymore, because Ye Wenwu had exposed the secrets of his father He Daqing, and he got a full 1500 yuan from an uncle named Yi Donghai.

But he gave his sister He Yushui a full 200 yuan when he split the bill, then spent several dozen yuan on buying wine, and his sister Qin borrowed nearly 200 yuan from him.

And last night, an old man from Zhonghai gave another 400 yuan of his own to Jia Zhangshi. What's more important is that his last 600 yuan disappeared. At this time, Silly Pig felt that he was really tragic.

Sha Zhu felt very aggrieved. He found that anything that had to do with Ye Wenwu was very aggrieved.

. . . . . .

Ye Wenwu also woke up early. Thanks to his good physique, he got enough sleep.

The first thing I did in the morning was to get up and take a look at the corn seedlings. If they were three centimeters last time, they were already six centimeters this time, showing obvious growth.

"Cousin, you're awake."

When Zhang Xingbang saw his cousin Ye Wenwu woke up, he quickly told Ye Wenwu what happened this morning.

"What? Shazhu's 600 yuan is gone."

Cousin Zhang Xingbang nodded.

"When I was washing up this morning, I heard what they said. It was as if they didn't know who stole his 600 yuan. They didn't even wash up and ran straight to Yi Zhonghai's house."

Ye Wenwu held his chin and began to think. If a normal person thought that the 600 yuan was lost, the first person he would think of was Yi Zhonghai.

But Ye Wenwu knew that Yi Zhonghai still looked down upon the 600 yuan.

What's more, so many eyes were watching last night. If Yi Zhonghai really stole the 600 yuan, he would definitely not be able to explain it the next day.

But at this time, Ye Wenwu remembered the Thief Saint of Red Star Courtyard.

During the month since Ye Wenwu came here, he has not had any contact with the little guy Banggeng. If there is really someone in Hongxing Siheyuan who is brave enough to invest 600 yuan, it seems that there is no one else except this guy.

After all, a normal person would not be so reckless as to steal 600 yuan. If the police station knew about it, they would be able to investigate it quickly.

There is only this little guy Banggeng. I wonder how much 600 yuan is?

However, Ye Wenwu did not tell his cousin Zhang Xingbang about this groundless suspicion.

After all, I only knew this from TV dramas in my previous life, and I can’t explain this to my cousin.

"Okay, cousin, this matter has nothing to do with us. I still need to wash up. I need to go out and buy some breakfast if we don't have it at home."

After saying that, Ye Wenwu took the basin and went out to wash up.

Since all the washing areas were concentrated in the central courtyard, Ye Wenwu also passed by Sha Zhu's door and saw that the Jia family's door was also closed, but he didn't see Sha Zhu, which made things less fun.

Otherwise, I could have mocked Shazhu in the morning.

Unfortunately, because of the loss of the 600 yuan and the 400 yuan that was cheated out of him last night, Sha Zhu is in no mood to care about these things now, otherwise Sha Zhu and Jia Zhang would definitely have another cross-field battle.

"This idiot Zhu is really calm. He didn't make a fuss when he lost 600 yuan. I guess Yi Zhonghai gave him the idea again. I want to see. If the investigation shows that it was Banggeng who stole it, how will you solve it?"

Ye Wenwu glanced at the locations of the three stores and hurried to work.
