Siheyuan: Starting to work in the street office

After Wang Jingrui left, Xie Pingan put away the smile on his face and looked at Wang Jingrui's back with a complicated expression.

Zhong Shan was observing the two of them from a distance. Unexpectedly, Wang Jingrui, this old fox, was so well hidden. After seeing the scene just now, Zhong Shan, who had watched countless TV dramas in his previous life, also knew the reason why Wang Jingrui stayed in Sijiu City.

You said you want to stay with the child, then stay with the child. But on the other hand, you can't let go of your concubine. There must be a fire in the backyard.

People should never be too fickle, otherwise it would be great if Wang Jingrui could still be contentedly serving as his son's uncle.

Although Zhong Shan couldn't bear to see Wang Jinrui and his son and grandson separated forever, there were some things beyond his control. It was all Ma Xianhai and Yang Xiaochun's fault. Well, he, Zhong Shan, just gave them a little push.

After Zhong Shan figured it out, he quickly found Hou Saner.

"San'er, you have to lead Ma Xianhai to Wang Jingrui's hiding place as soon as possible. I suspect Yang Xiaochun is just a smokescreen released by Wang Jingrui. He won't take Yang Xiaochun away at all."

Hou Saner was shocked when he heard this. No wonder Wang Jingrui never came again after that day.

"Okay, I got it, I'll go right away."

After Zhong Shan gave instructions to Hou Saner, he returned to Wang Jingrui's hiding place and kept an eye on him.

After seeing the child, I should be able to leave with peace of mind. It seems that Wang Jingrui will take action in the next two days.

Not long after, Zhongshan "saw" Hou Saner running in front, and a man chasing him from behind, who was Ma Xianhai.

After running to the abandoned courtyard where Wang Jingrui was hiding, Hou Saner hid in the shadows and disappeared. Ma Xianhai was about to curse and continue chasing him when he saw Wang Jingrui calling one of the two men in the courtyard. His eyes widened immediately and he swallowed back the words in his mouth.

He knew this person. They had stayed here together with Adjutant Wang.

After seeing the acquaintance, Ma Xianhai did not say anything, hid himself, and observed the yard.

At this moment, Ma Xianhai was puzzled. Now that he thought about it, that person deliberately led him here. Who was that person? What was their purpose?

But now there was no time to think about anything else. What was that man doing in the yard? If Wang Jingrui had called him here, then things would be complicated. Maybe they had all been fooled by the big-headed old fox!

Sure enough, Ma Xianhai found Wang Jingrui in the yard.

Originally, Ma Xianhai wanted to work together with Yang Xiaochun to steal the funds that had escaped from the old man, so as to lead to the whereabouts of Wang Jingrui's treasure.

But now all hope was dashed, and it was obvious that he and Yang Xiaochun had been abandoned.

Looking at the people in the yard, Ma Xianhai made up his mind.

Since I can't do anything, I'll just cause you some trouble.

Thinking of this, Ma Xianhai observed the yard. There were still a lot of dry weeds and discarded wood in it. Ma Xianhai was ready outside, waiting for an opportunity.

People have three urgent things to do. I don’t believe that you, Wang Jingrui, won’t go out.

Not long after, he finally got the chance. After Wang Jinrui had eaten and drunk his fill, he went out to relieve himself before going to bed.

As the leader of the two people in the yard, Wang Jingrui certainly couldn't get too close to them, as it would damage his dignity.

Wang Jingrui walked out of the yard and prepared to start in a wasteland.

Ma Xianhai found an opportunity and set fire to the yard. There were a lot of hay in the yard that had been there for many years. Once a fire broke out, it was out of control. By the time the people in the house noticed it, the fire had already started and could not be controlled.

The two men hurriedly ran out of the yard. Wang Jingrui had only untied half of it when he was frightened by the fire behind him. Without bothering to wipe it off, he ran back to the yard and met the two men in the yard head-on.

"Erhu, what happened? Why did the fire suddenly start?"

The people coming out of the yard were also confused.

"I don't know either. The grass outside caught fire first, and then it was led to the house. I thought you lit it by smoking."

"Where am I? Oh no, the money is all in the room. Erhu, go get the money. It's in a small package under the bed."

It was so dangerous that Wang Jingrui certainly couldn't go, so he quickly instructed Erhu to go in and get the things.

After hearing this, Erhu hurried to the yard. Fortunately, the fire only burned the old window and had not entered the house.

Erhu rushed into the house with smoke in his mouth, and searched under the bed, but in his panic he found nothing.

The search had to continue, but the fire had already spread to the house.

There was no choice, Erhu had to run out of the house empty-handed again.

"Erhu, how is it?"

"I didn't find anything. I searched for a long time but nothing was found. Then the fire got into the house. I had no choice but to retreat."

Zhong Shan in the dark looked at the small package in the space. There was a box inside. The box was full of small yellow croakers. There was no time to count them now. Maybe for convenience, there were no big yellow croakers in it. There were only full of small yellow croakers, probably hundreds of them. In addition, there was a stack of money. Zhong Shan didn't have time to look at how much, but there were still several thousand.

This package is not light. If there are 100 gold bars, and each bar is worth three or four hundred yuan, the gold bars in this package will be worth thirty or forty thousand yuan, which is enough for them to live after they escape.

Of course, Zhong Shan definitely didn’t do this for money. He just wanted to help Ma Xianhai. If these small yellow croakers were found by that person, wouldn’t Ma Xianhai’s anger be in vain?

Wang Jingrui heard that Erhu was not found. How could it be possible? In order to make it easier to take the things when escaping, he did not hide them. He put them under the bed and could see them at a glance.

And how come he was fine in the house, but just as he came out, there was a fire and his things were missing? Thinking of this, Wang Jinrui no longer trusted Erhu and the others so much.

"Okay, I get it, let's find another place."

Fortunately, this place is too remote, outside the city, and there are not many people around.

He would try to look for him after the fire was out tomorrow morning. However, Wang Jingrui no longer held out much hope. At this moment, he had already begun to suspect the two tiger brothers. The fire was too strange, and apart from the three of them, no one else knew he was here.

After the fire, Wang Jingrui and the other two lost their desire to sleep, and Wang Jingrui was also on guard against Erhu and his companions.

It was another sleepless night. No one knew how the people outside Yang Xiaochun's yard got through it, but on Wang Jingrui's side, Wang Jingrui and his three companions, plus Zhong Shan and Ma Xianhai who were watching secretly, all stayed awake all night.

After finally making it to the next day, Wang Jingrui and the other two returned to the courtyard. The house was almost burned down. Normally, no one came here. The three of them observed for a while and only came to the ruins when they saw that there was really no one else.

The wall was still there, and the three of them found where the bed was and searched around.

As expected, nothing was found.

Wang Jingrui looked at Erhu and the other man. They didn't look like they knew anything. Based on Wang Jingrui's understanding of the two men, they couldn't possibly pretend to be so similar.
