Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

After Sha Zhu was taken away, those who were light sleepers in the central courtyard woke up and ran out one after another, wrapped in their clothes. Among them was Jia Dongxu.

He was very happy to see Sha Zhu being taken away, if for no other reason, he had long seen that Sha Zhu had evil intentions towards his wife and always peeked at her with lustful eyes. If Yi Zhonghai had not told him to pay attention to uniting with Sha Zhu, and if his family could occasionally get some benefits from Sha Zhu, he would have turned against Sha Zhu long ago.

After a little excitement, he held his waist and walked to Yan Fugui and asked, "Uncle, what happened? Why was Sha Zhu taken away?"

"Haha, Dongxu, you are in trouble. Do you know where that kid came from? He is the orphan of a martyr. Shazhu was taken away on the charge of beating the orphan of a martyr. You'd better be careful!" Yan Fugui said with a smile.

"Ah? What does this have to do with our family? He beat me and my mother! The orphan of a martyr cannot just beat people up, right?" Jia Dongxu retorted.

"Don't get excited, I'm not a police officer. What I mean is that you were plotting to buy someone else's house, and someone beat up your mom, but your mom scolded him first. You two are just doing this!"

After saying that, Yan Fugui left the central courtyard with a smile and went home to continue sleeping.

After hearing what Yan Fugui said, Jia Dongxu panicked. Indeed, this matter was caused by his family wanting someone else's house, so he hurried to Yi Zhonghai's door and knocked on it.

"Bang, bang, bang, Master, Master, it's bad, Shazhu has been captured." Jia Dongxu knocked on the door anxiously.

In the room, Yi Zhonghai heard the noise and got up. He turned on the light and then pushed Chen Fengjuan next to him. "Fengjuan, get up. Something seems to have happened. I heard Dongxu knocking on the door. Get up and open the door."

"What could possibly happen in the middle of the night?" Chen Fengjuan muttered as she stood up, put on her clothes, and went to open the door.

After opening the door, Jia Dongxu rushed in and said before Yi Zhonghai could speak, "Master, Sha Zhu has been taken away by the police!"

"What did you say?" Yi Zhonghai pressed the bed with both hands, almost falling off the bed in panic.

"Shazhu was taken away by the police." Jia Dongxu repeated.

"Do you know why?"

As he said that, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly climbed down from the bed, picked up his pants and put them on.

"I don't know the details. When I came out, Shazhu had already been taken out of the yard. But the third uncle was there. I asked him and he said that they were beating the orphans of martyrs. Master, do you think we will be okay?" Jia Dongxu said.

"Beat the orphans of martyrs? Do you mean that Xiao Li is the orphan of a martyr?" Yi Zhonghai asked in disbelief.

"I don't know the details, but this is what the third uncle said. Master, will we be okay?" Jia Dongxu said worriedly again.

"It definitely has nothing to do with you, otherwise why not arrest you as well? Tell me what's going on? Isn't it just a fight? Is it necessary to make a big deal out of it? This Xiao Li really doesn't care about unity. No, I have to go ask Old Yan." Yi Zhonghai said anxiously.

Without delay, Yi Zhonghai quickly arrived at Yan Fugui's house. At this time, Yan Fugui was waiting for Yi Zhonghai!

After telling Yi Zhonghai the half-truth, Yi Zhonghai said with some dissatisfaction, "Old Yan, why didn't you tell him earlier that he was the orphan of a martyr? It caused such a big mistake!"

"Old Yi, what you said means that I don't know what the Jia family is thinking! You can't blame me for this. You didn't ask me, and I was just guessing." Yan Fugui said unhappily.

"Oh! I was wrong. Am I not very anxious? Tell me, what should we do? Isn't it just to let him get to know the neighbors? Why did so many troubles arise?" Yi Zhonghai said with a bitter face.

"Hmph, I think Shazhu deserves it. He beats people all the time, and now he's hit a wall! He deserves it. We should teach him a lesson. Let's see if he dares to beat people again in the future." Yan Fugui said.

"Old Yan, what are you talking about? We are from the same courtyard. Is it necessary to hold a meeting and criticize each other? I won't talk to you anymore. I have to talk to the old lady quickly, otherwise the old lady will make a fuss and the whole thing will collapse."

After saying that, Yi Zhonghai turned around and went to the backyard to discuss with the old deaf man.

……

On the other hand, at the hospital, Xu Damao and Section Chief Ye came to the hospital after calling the police.

After making sure that Li Kangri was fine, Section Chief Ye used the hospital's phone to report to Li Renyi and then returned to the ward.

"Kang Ri, this idiot Zhu must be taught a lesson this time. He usually relies on his little skill to stir up trouble everywhere, and now he is bullying us. This time we must lock him up for a period of time to kill his arrogance." Section Chief Ye said.

"Uncle Ye, forget about the lock-up. You need money to enter the city! I just happened to meet a boy who brings money. Don't you think this is God's will?" Li Kangri said with a smile.

"You, you are..."

"Uncle Ye, I am nothing but the orphan of a martyr!" Li Kangri interrupted Section Chief Ye.

"Hey, I understand. What are you going to do?" said Section Chief Ye.

Seeing Li Kangri interrupting Section Chief Ye, Xu Damao immediately understood that Li Kangri did not want to reveal his identity in front of him, an outsider, so he became even more curious about Li Kangri's identity.

"Yes, Shazhu has probably been arrested now. Do you want me to go to the police station and offer him a price?" Xu Damao said happily.

At this moment, he wanted to ridicule Sha Zhu and vent the resentment that had been accumulating in his heart for so many years.

"Haha, don't worry. What's the rush? We just wait, and someone will come to talk naturally." Li Kangri said.

"Hey, brother, are you waiting for Yi Zhonghai to come to you?" Xu Damao guessed immediately.

"Haha, I don't know. It doesn't matter who comes. I don't want money. As for whether they give me money or not, that's none of my business. By the way, Brother Xu, you know Sha Zhu better. Can you calculate how much money he has?" Li Kangri asked with a smile.

"Okay, brother, you are still taller than him. Let me do the math! Shazhu has been working for almost ten years. He probably couldn't save any money in the first few years, but things have been better in recent years. He basically doesn't spend any money on food. He only has a sister, so I estimate she should have at least one thousand!" Xu Damao calculated.

"Are you sure it hasn't been borrowed by anyone else?" Li Kangri asked casually.

"Borrow?" Xu Damao thought for a moment, "Yes, Jia Dongxu's wife always asks him to borrow money, but I don't know how much she borrowed."

"Oh, forget it. If he is willing to give me 500 to appease me, I'll let it go this time." Li Kangri said.

"hiss!"

Hearing Li Kangri's tone, Xu Damao and Section Chief Ye showed shocked expressions at the same time, "This is too much of a rip-off, 500! With Shazhu's salary, he has to save it for two years without eating or drinking. Will they be willing to do that?"

"If you fight against the Japanese, you will be detained for half a month at most if you are beaten. Are you willing to do that, Sha Zhu?" asked Section Chief Ye.

"Haha, Uncle Ye, if Sha Zhu is locked up for half a month, will the factory still want him?" Li Kangri asked.

"Others will definitely be fired, but as for Shazhu, I'm afraid the leaders won't agree. After all, Shazhu is the only good chef in the factory."

"Then go find Director Li and tell him that I was beaten by Sha Zhu and see what he says?" Li Kangri said.

"That's right. I'll talk to Director Li tomorrow. Will your staying in the hospital delay your return home?" asked Section Chief Ye.

"No delay, I'll be back in three days at most."

"Okay, I'll go back first. I'm on duty tonight."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Ye, you go back first! Brother Xu is with me here!" Li Kangri said.

"Yes, I'll accompany my brother. Chief Ye, you go and do your work!" Xu Damao said with a smile.
