Siheyuan, Rainwater is the master, Shazhu wins

When He Yuzhu saw his sister coming in, he was excited. The lunch he had at noon was not enough to fill his stomach, and he was already growling with hunger.

He hurriedly urged his sister to hand him the lunch box, and then he couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and gobble up the food.

Yu Shui couldn't help laughing out loud when she saw her brother eating so generously.

"What are you laughing at? I'm almost starving to death, and you're still laughing!"

He Yuzhu felt a little embarrassed by his sister's laughter. After all, his current image of eating was not very elegant.

"Brother, I want to tell you something. Director Wang just told me that Xu Damao wants you to pay 110 yuan and the medical expenses of the father and son. Otherwise, he will report you for stealing lunch boxes from the steel mill since 1958."

When He Yuzhu heard this, the steamed bun he was about to swallow got stuck in his throat.

He kept beating his chest, and it took him a long time to catch his breath.

He quickly drank some water, took a deep breath, and then said.

"You just said Xu Damao was going to report me for bringing a lunch box?"

He Yuzhu asked with a frown.

"Yes, what do you say about this?"

He Yushui looked at her brother anxiously.

"I don't want to give money. What do you think is the solution?" He Yushui continued.

He Yushui hurriedly asked He Yuzhu what to do about this matter, otherwise he would suffer a huge loss if he really spent the money.

"Well, let's do this. You tell Chief Wang of the police station this... then this... and finally this. Then you see what Chief Wang will do."

He Yuzhu told his sister about his plan.

"okay, I get it."

He Yushui laughed when she heard what her brother said. Her brother was so smart. She looked at him with admiration.

"By the way, brother, it's very lively outside. I see a lot of supplies. Which black market is the police station cracking down on?" He Yushui asked curiously.

He Yuzhu rolled his eyes and said in a proud tone.

"I gave them that and asked them to give it to the needy people on the street. I was doing a good deed. The supplies were not mine anyway. Of course, I did it secretly."

"I also gave some supplies to the largest orphanage, which is nothing."

The expression on his face when he spoke was so proud and proud, as if he was a savior, speaking for the suffering people in the world.

He Yushui came out after staying for ten minutes and went straight to find Director Wang who was working.

"Director Wang, how about I talk to you about my brother?"

Seeing that she was willing to talk, Chief Wang put down his work and called Director Wang to his office to talk.

He Yushui only saw Director Wang at this time, and she said a little excitedly.

"Director Wang, you are here too. What are you doing?"

She asked this deliberately, pretending to be curious. After all, this was a matter of personal curiosity.

"Well, let's go and listen to what you have to say."

The three of them came to Director Wang's office. He poured them a glass of water before sitting down.

"Have you thought about what to say or what to do?"

This is a very sophisticated question. It depends on whether He Yushui wants to explain the lunch box issue or agree or disagree with the other party's request.

"Well, I don't think I can give the other party that money. I'm not afraid that they will report my brother because my brother is innocent."

He Yushui said with a firm look in her eyes. Her eyes were full of trust and support for her brother, which moved people.

"I was still in junior high school at the time, and I usually came back on Friday nights. But I was hungry every day. The lunch boxes my brother brought back were not for me, nor did he eat them."

He Yushui continued to recall the past, her voice filled with a hint of sadness and helplessness.

When Director Wang heard this, he felt curious.

She couldn't help but ask, "Then your brother brought the lunch box back and didn't give it to you or eat it, so who did he give it to?"

He Yushui shook her head, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes, and she spoke slowly.

"All the lunch boxes my brother brought back were given to the Jia family. You can tell from their three children that they never lacked food when they were young."

Director Wang widened his eyes, looked at He Yushui in disbelief, and muttered to himself.

"I didn't expect He Yushui's brother would do such a thing! It's really shocking!"

He Yushui continued, "Bang Geng was spoiled by Jia Zhang. When he had nothing, he would come to my house to get it. My brother didn't tell him, which led to the tragedy that followed."

Director Wang frowned and thought.

"This is really too much! But why did He Yuzhu do this?"

He Yushui seemed to see through Director Wang's thoughts and explained.

"My brother did this because of a whole-school meeting. This is also an old tradition in our school."

"Uncle Yi Zhonghai said at the meeting that the Jia family in our courtyard is in a difficult situation. At the beginning, they said that Jia Dongxu's salary was not high and he could not support his family. After Jia Dongxu died, the family became orphans and widows, and it was not easy. Everyone with ability in the courtyard should give a hand." He Yushui said helplessly.

"So our yard came to donate every one or two months, until one day the meeting decided to let my brother bring leftovers from the factory to the Jia family."

"You know, that was my brother and I's dinner, and we gave it to the Jia family. I was often hungry during those years, and my brother just drank a little wine and ate a few peanuts to fill his stomach."

He Yushui continued to recall the past days.

"Then you can't refuse?"

When Director Wang heard this, he had doubts and asked them.

"Haha, the consequences of refusing are more serious than bringing them lunch boxes." Xu Damao shook his head with a wry smile.

"My father passed away. I don't know why he didn't want us anymore. As a result, everyone in the hospital wanted to bully us. They didn't help us when we were in trouble."

He Yushui became more and more excited as he spoke, and his eyes became moist.

"An uncle said that we should have a conscience. Everyone has watched us grow up. If we have the ability, we should help others, especially the elderly and children." He Yushui said with a look of grievance.

"Also, our courtyard is a civilized courtyard. If you don't do good things, it means you are not a civilized person. Then please leave the courtyard and find another place to live."

"The three uncles unanimously agreed on the decision, so my brother couldn't object. And that's how the deaf old lady got close to my brother. They said that the elderly should be cared for, so my brother started taking care of the old lady."

"Until my brother got into trouble, the old lady didn't even come to see me. But when I started working in the cafeteria and my cooking skills were good, she came instead."

After He Yushui finished speaking, he sat down weakly in the chair, his eyes were empty and lifeless. His tired expression made people feel extremely heartbroken.

The whole room was filled with a depressing atmosphere, as if time had stood still.

He Yushui's voice echoed in the air, and every word was like a sharp sword, piercing people's hearts.

The two fell into silence, with complicated expressions on their faces.

They couldn't imagine what He Yuzhu had been through.
