Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 257: Fighting the Alley Neighbors

He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard at about four o'clock.

When he came back, Li Dagen and his family were chatting with others at the entrance of the alley. Xu Damao, that bastard, was talking to Li Zhenjiang. Xu Xiaoling and Li Pan, the two little sisters, were running and playing together with laughter.

When He Yushui saw it, he immediately ran over shouting their names.

He Yuzhu walked over and said, "Uncle Li, have you returned to the courtyard?"

Li Dagen shook his head: "We just came back. We don't know the situation in the hospital yet."

Xu Damao came over with a smug look on his face: "I know. Today our courtyard is really exciting..."

This bastard knew that there was a good show in the yard, so he naturally wouldn't miss it. He came back secretly and hid outside to eavesdrop.

When the neighbors heard this, they asked in surprise, "Are the Jia family's conditions really that bad?"

He Yuzhu said: "Whether it is miserable or not depends on how you look at it. If you compare it with those rich people, it must be miserable. But if you compare it with everyone, it is actually nothing. Don't forget, Jia Dongxu has a rich master."

Xu Damao almost laughed out loud. Yi Zhonghai didn't have much money in his pocket, but he didn't dare to let anyone know about this.

The man said, "Zhu Zi, do you think everyone can meet a good master like you?"

Obviously, he knew that there were few masters in the world who gave money to their apprentices like Wu Bangming did.

The person who was speaking was a nice guy and quite sensible. The only bad thing about him was that he married a wife who liked gossip.

He Yuzhu has such a bad reputation, and his wife is responsible for it.

"Look at what you said. My master is a hypocritical villain. He must have bad intentions in giving me money. How can he compare to Yi Zhonghai?"

The man obviously knew what this meant and smiled awkwardly: "Zhu Zi, uncle apologizes to you. It's all because of that woman in my family who talked nonsense. I have taught her a lesson several times."

He Yuzhu said, "It seems that this is useless. I heard people saying bad things about me yesterday after get off work, saying that I am unfilial and have no conscience. I don't understand. My father is not at home, who can I show my filial respect to?"

He Yuzhu asked the other people who were watching the fun, "And you. Come on, tell me, you all keep saying that I am ungrateful. Then I ask you, to whom am I ungrateful, and what favors do I owe you?"

Ask them to invent stories of ingratitude and they can write millions of words. Ask them to describe it in detail and no one dares to speak.

They really didn't know what He Yuzhu's so-called ungratefulness meant.

It’s just that Yi Zhonghai has such a good reputation that everyone subconsciously thinks it is true.

As for what the truth is, it has nothing to do with them. They are just there to satisfy their own desires.

He Yuzhu didn't expect to change anything. This time he just wanted to give these people a reminder. He didn't care whether it was useful or not.

"Don't just believe everything you hear. If anyone wants to be filial, I'll help you spread the word and say that you volunteer to be filial to the deaf old lady."

"Zhu Zi, misunderstanding."

"Zhu Zi, let's not talk about it anymore."

"Zhu Zi, it's our fault."

When they heard that He Yuzhu was going to push the deaf old lady's blame on them, they all hurriedly apologized to He Yuzhu.

In this life, the deaf old lady's plans did not go smoothly and she was unable to control the Siheyuan, resulting in news about the Siheyuan spreading everywhere.

People in the orphanage didn't dare to provoke the deaf old lady, so they chose to ruin her reputation outside. As a result, the news about her greed and picky nature spread everywhere.

Not to mention those unfilial people, even those who are filial are not willing to take care of a deaf old lady.

The reason they could eat the melons from Courtyard No. 95 so happily was not because the deaf old lady didn’t live in the same courtyard with them?

He Yuzhu and the others didn't stay outside for long and walked towards the courtyard together.

As you enter the yard, a sad atmosphere hits you in the face.

I met several people who all had sullen faces, as if they wanted to compare their faces with those of the Xu family's father and son.

Yan Bugui sighed while watering the flowers, and did not notice He Yuzhu and the others coming in. Xu Damao covered his mouth to hold back his laughter, and then called out to Yan Bugui: "Uncle, the flowers are almost drowned."

Yan Bugui finally came to his senses: "Zhu Zi, Lao Li, you are back. Lao Li, where did you and your family go?"

Li Dagen said: "I didn't go anywhere, I just took the kids out to play."

"There's a meeting in the hospital, did you know about it?"

"I don't know." Several people answered in unison.

Since you have gotten the advantage, don't show off.

Yan Bugui was a little skeptical, but when he thought about how Yi Zhonghai had deliberately concealed it from He Yuzhu, and that he only mentioned the meeting after these people had left, he did not doubt it.

"There was a meeting in the courtyard, and money was donated to the Jia family."

He Yuzhu said: "This is a good thing. With your help, the Jia family can eat meat every day. They no longer have to borrow meat from everywhere. Everyone no longer has to hide at home and eat secretly every day."

Yan Bugui said dissatisfiedly: "Zhu Zi, don't talk nonsense. What do you mean the Jia family can eat meat every day?"

He Yuzhu pointed to the middle courtyard and said, "Third Uncle, are you talking nonsense? Smell carefully. There is a smell of meat coming from the middle courtyard. There are only three houses in the middle courtyard, and Yushui and I just came back. Whose house do you think the smell is coming from?"

The fragrance was very faint, and He Yuzhu would not have been able to smell it if it weren't for the blessing of the spiritual spring water.

Yan Bugui sniffed it but didn't smell anything: "There's no smell of meat."

He Yushui said: "There is indeed a smell of meat. I smell it too."

He Yuzhu has a bad relationship with the Jia family and might lie and slander the Jia family, but He Yushui is a child and should not do that.

Yan Bugui walked towards the middle courtyard, muttering, "The Jia family really doesn't know how to live. They just donated money and now they're buying meat."

When we arrived at the central courtyard, we found that the doors and windows of the Jia family were closed. If we didn't smell carefully, we really couldn't detect the fragrance coming from the Jia family.

A neighbor passing by noticed the situation, stopped and smelled it, and his face turned ugly.

This is the Jia family that Yi Zhonghai mentioned could not make ends meet.

I begged everyone for donations in the morning, and secretly bought meat in the evening.

He Yuzhu took He Yushui home, and Xu Damao followed them all the way: "Why don't you go home? Where's Uncle Xu?"

Xu Damao found a place to sit down and said, "I don't know where my father went. Brother Zhuzi, I have no place to eat tonight, please cook more."

He Yuzhu didn't refuse: "See if you have anything delicious at home and bring some over."

Xu Damao said, "There is nothing left at home. There is only one bottle of good wine. I will go get it."

Outside, Yi Zhonghai discovered this problem and walked out of his house with a headache: "What are you all doing in the yard?"

Yan Bugui said angrily: "Old Yi, this is what you mean by the Jia family can't make ends meet."

Yi Zhonghai looked at Yan Bugui with dissatisfaction: "Old Yan, why are you still making trouble? The reason why Dongxu failed the assessment is because of malnutrition. He needs to supplement nutrition. Who doesn't buy some meat to supplement nutrition?

Isn't it that everyone donated money to the Jia family to help them live a better life? Okay, let's all go!"

He Yuzhu heard the people in the yard disperse from inside the house and cursed them as idiots. He didn't expect the people in the yard to make a fuss, but he didn't expect them to be fooled so easily.

These people deserved to be fooled by Yi Zhonghai.

Xu Damao returned to the backyard and soon brought Liu Guangtian over. Liu Guangtian was still thinking about the benefits promised by Xu Fugui and his son, so when he saw Xu Damao, he asked Xu Damao for them. Xu Damao brought him over.

He Yuzhu was really defeated by the shamelessness of the Xu family father and son. Especially Xu Fugui, who was fooling around somewhere and didn't even care about his son and daughter.

In the end, He Yuzhu sent the drunk Xu Damao back home, leaving Xu Xiaoling and He Yushui sleeping in the same bed.
