It can be seen that Xu Damao is still very optimistic and has a strong will despite his disability.

Although one of his testicles was removed, making him half a eunuch, he still didn't change his bad habits. He liked to talk nonsense and flirt with decent women. He was indeed something.

Xu Fugui knew what kind of person his son was, so naturally he wouldn't say anything more about him.

"Da Mao, you have to build a good relationship with Cao Wei. This guy is already a deputy section chief at such a young age. His future is limitless."

Xu Fugui said very cautiously.

Xu Damao said to Xu Fugui in a carefree manner: "Dad, don't worry. Cao Wei is my good buddy. We have a very good relationship. You don't need to say anything more."

Xu Damao was able to become a deputy director after the storm. Besides being good at flattery, he was also a man with good eyesight, which is why he was able to thrive in the company.

He had long noticed Cao Wei's extraordinaryness and had invited Cao Wei to dinner every now and then.

Xu Damao wanted to get closer to Cao Wei, and also to get Cao Wei to help him deal with Sha Zhu. Before Cao Wei, it was purely for Lou Xiaoe.

Now the situation also leads to Xu Damao being very grateful to Cao Wei, but Cao Wei makes him wear a hat on his head, the kind that glows green.

Xu Fugui nodded and said nothing more.

Xu Damao continued to talk to Xu Fugui. Although Sha Zhu was not castrated, Xu Damao was very satisfied that he was taken to the police station.

"Dad, how long can Shazhu and the others stay in there after being arrested?"

Xu Damao asked curiously.

If you stay in there for a long time, that's fine, but if you come out after two days, isn't it the same as not having been in there at all?

I just heard Shazhu go in. I was so happy that I forgot to ask how long it had been.

Xu Fugui shook his head: "I don't know the exact time yet, but I'm sure he won't be released in one or two days. It will take at least ten days or half a month, right? I'll find time to go to the police station tomorrow to ask how long he will be detained."

"Then the uncle will definitely find a way to save them, right?"

Xu Fugui smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. I asked Cao Wei when I came here. He said that Yi Zhonghai might be taken away by the street. He didn't say it clearly at the time. I think this is probably true, so don't worry about Yi Zhonghai for the time being."

Suddenly, Xu Damao felt relieved. If Yi Zhonghai had not been arrested, he could still find a way to save Sha Zhu and the deaf old lady. But Yi Zhonghai could not even save himself now. His position as a uncle was removed, and he was also going to be taken away by the street. How could he save Sha Zhu and the others?

............

The arrest of Yi Zhonghai, Sha Zhu and the deaf old lady did not have much impact on the people in the courtyard.

Only two people were worried.

When He Yushui received the news that her brother had been arrested at home, she was very angry and worried.

What made her angry was that her silly brother was so stubborn and refused to listen to her. If he had discussed everything with her before taking any action, or if he had listened to her, he could have gone to the hospital to buy some gifts, visited Xu Damao, and apologized to Xu Damao's family, things wouldn't have come to this.

The worry is that Shazhu won't have a good life in there. After all, everyone's stereotype of prison is that people suffer in there, don't eat well, and don't have a good life.

But it's too late now. There's no point in being angry or worried.

Because Sha Zhu was in jail for beating someone up, and beating the person so badly, he will definitely not be able to get out in a day or two, at least not before the New Year.

He Yushui can only celebrate the New Year alone.

If he were to celebrate the New Year alone, He Yushui started to worry again. How would he spend the New Year?

In the past, Sha Zhu, who had a source of income, bought groceries and various things. He Yushui, however, had no source of income. She only had some subsidies from the school and some scholarships. However, because Sha Zhu had not cared much about her sister during this period and seldom gave her money, she used her small savings on food, and now there is not much left.

His brother Sha Zhu hadn't prepared anything for the New Year yet, so He Yushui didn't have much money or tickets left.

For a moment, He Yushui was also a little troubled.

I'd better go to the police station tomorrow to inquire about the situation.

An old lady was in a similar situation.

But she was not worried about money, after all, Yi Zhonghai had accumulated a lot of savings over the years.

Based on their normal food and living needs, this money can last them for more than ten years, or even longer.

Of course, this is the case without any surprises.

What worries the aunt is that her house is now empty and very quiet.

Usually she does housework at home, cleans up the deaf old lady's house, and takes care of their husband Mr. Yi. That's all she does.

Now, the deaf old lady was taken away by the police station, and the head of the family was taken away by the street. Suddenly, two people were missing. The aunt lost her two backbones. She had no appetite at home.

She was also reluctant to go out. After all, every family outside was reunited and gathered together, which only made her feel sad.

When will their old Yi come back?

The aunt sighed.

I don’t know if their old Yi will suffer any hardship on the other side of the street.

......

After Yan Bugui returned home, he felt relaxed again.

The eldest uncle was dismissed, the second uncle was automatically promoted to the eldest uncle, and he, the third uncle, was also promoted to the second uncle.

Therefore, Yan Bugui decided to increase his writing fee a little this year.

After all, he is a wealthy man now. If he were to send off a small fee like he did in previous years, it would be so degrading.

After returning from the street, Yan Bugui was a little depressed, but soon, he returned to being the third uncle who was the reincarnation of the abacus expert, oh no, now he is the second uncle.

Since he failed to get the advantage of the writing fee from Cao Wei, Yan Bugui decided to get it back from other families.

In previous years, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui were responsible for posting couplets in the courtyard, or someone would ask Yan Bugui to write them and then post them themselves.

Yan Bugui relied on this writing fee, and hardly ever bought peanuts or melon seeds during the Chinese New Year.

This year, Yan Bugui is alone, so he plans to harvest more so that his family can have more to eat.

Or if that doesn't work, the extra peanuts and melon seeds can be taken to the Pigeon Market to sell. Peanuts and melon seeds are always in short supply during the Chinese New Year, and everyone likes to eat them.
