Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

After leaving the police station, Li Huaide said to Li Kangri with a smile, "Little Li, are you living in a den of wolves? You scared me in the middle of the night. I was so anxious when Xu Damao came to find me. If it doesn't work, I'll try to find a new yard for you."

"Brother Li, no need, really no need. These days, every family has some schemes. Thank you, Brother Li, for what happened today! I'll ask my apprentice to cook you a meal some other day, and we'll have a good gathering together." Li Kangri said politely.

"Haha, it's too formal for you and I to talk about this as brothers. If you need anything in the future, just come to me. And your two apprentices are good. One cooks and the other shows movies. They are both very good. I will find opportunities to promote them in the future, especially Sha Zhu. He is under my command. I will study him someday."

"Zhuzi, why don't you thank your Uncle Li quickly? Didn't you hear that you will be promoted?" Li Kangri said after kicking the silly Zhuzi.

"Ah! Promotion? This is going to be a promotion?" Sha Zhu said in confusion. He really didn't expect that he could get a promotion after going back to the police station.

"Hurry up, why are you in a daze? From now on, my Brother Li is your Uncle Li. The seniority cannot be messed up. When you meet him in the future, treat him as you meet me. Be polite." Li Kangri taught.

"Oh, okay,"

After realizing what was happening, Sha Zhu immediately smiled and said to Li Huaide, "Uncle Li, thank you. Just let me know if you need anything in the future."

"Hahaha, Shazhu, if you had done this earlier, I would have promoted you a long time ago. My brother Li is really awesome." Li Huaide smiled meaningfully.

"Hehe, it's because I didn't get it before. It's because my master taught me well." Sha Zhu said embarrassedly.

"Okay, Brother Li, I'm going home first. See you tomorrow." Li Huaide said goodbye.

After separating from Li Huaide, the three of them walked all the way back to the courtyard. As soon as they entered, they saw Yi Zhonghai standing at the door, glaring at them.

"What are you looking at? Go to the Jia family to see your child." Xu Damao said arrogantly.

Hearing Xu Damao's provocation, Yi Zhonghai was furious, but he suppressed his anger and said to Sha Zhu, "Zhu, come here. I have something to tell you."

"Yi Zhonghai, I have nothing to say to you. If you have anything to say, just say it here." Sha Zhu said.

"Zhu Zi, do you really not want to have anything to do with me in the future?" Yi Zhonghai said angrily.

"Yi Zhonghai, you are right. I don't want to have anything to do with you in the future. It would be better if we never have any contact at all. I still want to get married. If I have any contact with you for too long, I will be left with no family." Sha Zhu said bluntly.

He thought about it for a long time yesterday, and slowly he figured out some things.

"Let's go Zhuzi. What's there to talk about with this old bastard? In the end it's all about the widow." Li Kangri said in a gloomy tone.

After saying this, he left Yi Zhonghai, who was extremely angry, and the people in the yard who were watching him make fun of him, and went home in a leisurely manner.

After returning home, Qinghe and Lou Xiaoe had already prepared dinner, so they sat down and prepared to eat.

"Brother, I was so worried. I was afraid you couldn't get out. You should be more careful in the future. After all, we are outsiders." Qinghe said.

"Hehe, don't be afraid, Auntie. Master has connections everywhere. He wouldn't be afraid of that old bastard. Nothing will happen to him." Xu Damao explained quickly.

"It's okay. I'm not the one looking for trouble. It's that old bastard who took the initiative to cause trouble. No matter how much you talk to him, there's no point in doing that. Don't be afraid. If you're afraid, they will ride on your neck and shit on you, just like when I first entered the yard. If I had been a little softer, the Jia family would be living in my yard now." Li Kangri analyzed.

"Well, nothing can happen to you, otherwise mom will be worried to death." Li Qinghe said.

"Okay, let's eat."

While eating, Li Kangri thought about it and felt uncomfortable, especially about Yi Zhonghai. If he didn't teach him a lesson, he wouldn't know who he was.

"It seems like he's going to use He Daqing's money to cause some trouble." Li Kangri thought.

"Master, what are you thinking about?" Xu Damao asked.

"It's nothing. I noticed that Zhuzi has been looking very lucky recently, and it seems that good fortune is coming." Li Kangri said.

"Hey, Master, you are not talking about our junior brother's promotion, are you? Uncle Li just said that he would give him a promotion. Wouldn't money come with the promotion?" Xu Damao said after looking at Sha Zhu with envy.

"Yes, haha, I didn't expect that such a good thing would happen after going to the police station!" Sha Zhu said happily.

"Your character, it's all because of Master. If it weren't for Master, Uncle Li would have killed you." Xu Damao said.

"I'm not talking about promotion. It seems that Zhuzi is about to make a fortune. Zhuzi, write a word and I will test your fortune." Li Kangri said.

"Divining? Haha, this is good, this is good," Sha Zhu shouted, "What word should I write? How about the word He, then He."

As he said that, Sha Zhu put his fingers in his mouth and wrote the word "He" on the table.

"Shazhu, this is so disgusting! Can't you find a pen and paper to write it down?" Lou Xiao'e said with disdain.

"Haha, that's how rough people are. You are a young lady and you don't understand us rough people. Master, please explain it to us quickly." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"The word 'He' means 'ren', 'ding' and 'kou', which means three people. Do you think there are three people alive in your family now?"

"Yes, He Daqing, me, and Yu Shui, aren't there three people? Do we have money?" Sha Zhu asked casually.

"Well, you are seeking wealth. This wealth all comes from people. There are three people in the word "He". Wealth comes from people. Your sister has no money, and you are the one seeking wealth. Does it mean that your father wants to give you money? Or he has already given you money, but you don't know it?" Li Kangri tempted.

Hearing Li Kangri's words, Sha Zhu was full of disbelief. "Master, if you say anything else, I would believe it. Even if you say I will pick up a hundred dollars when I go out tomorrow, I will believe it. But if you say He Daqing will give me money, I don't believe it."

"Why?" Li Kangri asked.

"Master, you didn't know that since you weren't in the courtyard before, He Daqing was so ruthless when he abandoned us. He didn't leave a penny in the house and took everything. Later, Yu Shui and I went to look for him, but he actually avoided us. Do you think he would give me money?"

"Zhu Zi, you can't just look at things superficially. Indeed, I can see from this character that He Daqing gave you money. The character "He" represents wood in the five elements. Wood gives birth to fire, fire gives birth to earth, and earth gives birth to gold. It is very difficult to make money. The difficulty may lie in the two people next to it. You see, these two people tightly surround the character "kou" (mouth) that represents gold. What's the problem?" Li Kangri pretended to be puzzled and asked.

"Where is it?" the four people surrounding him asked in unison.

"I've been analyzing it too. Look at the word 'He'. This person and Ding are guarding the middle mouth tightly. It seems to mean that two people are holding the golden mouth and not giving it to you. Who could it be? Two people? Who in the yard has only two people?" Li Kangri asked.

"Whose family has two people?" Xu Damao pondered, "Hey, in the whole courtyard, besides Yi Zhonghai's family, my family is the only one with two people, but I'm not guarding the wealth of my junior brother's family."

"No, there are four people in your family, but your parents are not here." Li Kangri explained.
