Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

When he turned around... Sha Zhu was looking at him with a silly grin on his face.

Li Chaoyang looked at him with some curiosity and asked, "Master He, is this... something you need?"

Sha Zhu still had a simple smile on his face and said, "Oh... I'm fine, Section Chief Li."

"I... am taking a walk..."

"Why don't you just say you were taking a stroll?" Li Chaoyang rolled his eyes and said irritably, "I was saying, Master He..."

"I'd believe you even if you said you were just going to chat with an old lady..."

"But you insist you were taking a walk..."

"Go through this door and you'll be at my house. Would you like to come in and have a look around...?"

Sha Zhu's honest smile instantly turned into embarrassment.

Even so, he remained rooted to the spot, not moving an inch...

Seeing his ridiculous expression, Li Chaoyang was at a loss...

I thought to myself, why does Sha Zhu seem a bit silly?

I clearly remember... this guy was full of bad ideas...!

wrong!

Is this guy just faking me?

Could it be... that there's some kind of scheme going on?

Li Chaoyang, who always assumed the worst of others, instantly became more vigilant.

Li Chaoyang frowned and said directly, "Master He, just say what you need to say."

"If you don't have anything to do, don't stand in my doorway and block my way home..."

"You saw what happened to Aunt Jia when she tried to stop me..."

Li Chaoyang's words carried a warning tone, reminding Sha Zhu of the scene in the Central Courtyard earlier.

Instantly, his face turned pale, and he quickly explained to Li Chaoyang, "No, no, Section Chief Li!"

"I just saw that you gave Uncle San a lot of candy and snacks, so I came over to ask if you had any more?"

"If you have any, I'd like to exchange some with you..."

Upon hearing this, Li Chaoyang glared at Sha Zhu, feeling both amused and exasperated.

"You didn't tell me earlier!"

"You're just wandering around behind me, stammering and making excuses!"

"I thought you were trying to scheme against me!"

"Come in and we'll talk!" With that, Li Chaoyang pushed the cart into the courtyard.

Seeing that Li Chaoyang let him in, Sha Zhu breathed a sigh of relief....

Actually, before he came, he had planned to first curry favor with Li Chaoyang.

Once we get to know each other better, I can exchange some candy or snacks with him.

However, the lingering influence of Li Chaoyang's angry rebuke of those three was still present.

Plus, since Sha Zhutou was so eager to curry favor this time, he got nervous and things turned out like this.

Upon entering, Sha Zhu, having already stated his purpose, decided to get straight to the point: "Section Chief Li, do you have a good supply of candy left...?"

"If I had the means... I'd like to trade some with you..."

But then Li Chaoyang asked with a strange look on his face, "Master He, you're supposed to be a chef, after all."

"Why do you still like to eat these things?"

"Besides, you probably traded it with Uncle San before, right?"

"Why do you want to switch with me now?"

When Sha Zhu heard Li Chaoyang ask this question, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

"Section Chief Li, it's my sister He Yushui who's been asking for this."

"Besides, I've been trading with Uncle San all along, but he's too stingy and calculating!"

"These past two days, when I proactively tried to exchange candy with him, he actually raised the price!"

"It used to be five candies for a box of rice, but today I can only get three..."

"To be honest, if it weren't for the rainwater in our house!"

"I would never do something as childish as trading food for candy!"

Sha Zhu spoke with a hint of resentment, but just as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered...

It seems that in the beginning, it was the third uncle who gave out the rainwater candies...

Seeing Sha Zhu's increasingly strained expression, Li Chaoyang couldn't help but laugh...

Indeed... that Third Uncle is a man who's always been cunning!

Moreover, judging from the resentful look on Sha Zhu's face, it's clear that Third Uncle must have schemed against this kid quite a bit in the past.

But it's not like they're plotting against me.

Li Chaoyang naturally wouldn't judge whether what the Third Uncle did was right or wrong.

......

...

Seeing that Li Chaoyang was just smiling and not saying anything, Sha Zhu asked somewhat nervously, "Section Chief Li, is this alright?"

Li Chaoyang looked at him and thought to himself that the kid was honest and straightforward enough.

In this courtyard full of birds, there are too many people like Jia Zhangshi, who think of scheming as soon as they see something good!

Sha Zhu's willingness to go directly to Li Chaoyang's door to ask if he could exchange candy for it did indeed impress Li Chaoyang...

To be honest, he had no interest in trading candy with Sha Zhu.

Because Sha Zhu didn't have anything that he could be interested in.

Moreover, Sha Zhu himself said before that he traded his food for the candy from the Third Uncle...

Just by listening to it, you can tell it must be leftovers that were secretly packed up from the cafeteria!

Thinking of this, Li Chaoyang asked with some disdain, "Master He, you wouldn't be thinking of trading those dishes for sugar with me, would you?"

When Sha Zhu heard Li Chaoyang ask that question, he thought there was hope for the matter and started to think about it seriously...

He thought to himself that Li Chaoyang was living the most comfortable life in the entire hospital.

And every now and then, they would go to the small canteen for a good meal.

So she definitely wouldn't look down on the leftovers he brought back...

However, besides this, he really didn't have anything else to offer...

For a moment, Sha Zhu fell into deep thought, and even the big-faced man seemed conflicted...

Seeing that Sha Zhu had become somewhat silly again, Li Chaoyang couldn't help but laugh.

This guy... I really don't know what to say.

It came running over excitedly, wanting to trade for candy, but hadn't even decided what to offer in return.

Seeing Sha Zhu deep in thought, Li Chaoyang teased, "Master He, please don't tell me..."

"You want to trade chicken feathers for sugar?!"

"Huh... chicken feathers?" Sha Zhu asked with a puzzled look.

But then, he suddenly exclaimed with delight, "That's right! How come I didn't think of that!"

"Section Chief Li, I can cook chicken!"

"How about I cook chicken for you in exchange for sugar, Section Chief Li!"

"You definitely love it..." Sha Zhu said excitedly....

Upon hearing this, Li Chaoyang almost coughed up a mouthful of blood!

He stared at Sha Zhu in shock and immediately burst out cursing, "Sha Zhu! You son of a bitch..."

But as soon as he uttered the curse, Li Chaoyang suddenly realized...

I must have misunderstood...

.....

Putting away the menacing look on his face, Li Chaoyang asked quietly, "Master He, you mean to say...?"

"You're going to cook for me and then trade the sugar, right?"

"Um...yes..." Sha Zhu said timidly.
