Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

He Yuzhu chatted with Liu Haizhong at his house for about an hour, then he got up and said goodbye.

"Uncle, it's almost time. I still have to visit other neighbors. I'll leave first."

Seeing this, Liu Haizhong immediately stood up and sent He Yuzhu to the door of his house.

"Zhu Zi, how about this? After you visit other households, come back to our house for lunch."

Facing Liu Haizhong's warm hospitality, He Yuzhu waved his hand and politely declined.

"Second uncle, I appreciate your kindness, but I won't eat. I'll come to see you again when I have the chance."

Liu Haizhong knew He Yuzhu's temper very well. Once a decision was made, it was difficult to change it. Since he had said so, he could only do as he wished.

"Zhu Zi, since you have already made your plans, I won't say much. Remember to come often when you are free."

After saying that, he sent He Yuzhu out of the house.

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

After leaving his second uncle Liu Haizhong's house, He Yuzhu went straight to his third uncle Yan Bugui's house.

After He Yuzhu left, Liu Haizhong returned to the house and immediately checked the gifts that He Yuzhu had given him.

When he picked up the gift bag containing the bottle of Moutai, he found that the gift bag was extremely heavy. From the feel of it, it seemed as if there was something hidden inside.

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong immediately took out the two bottles of Moutai.

He was surprised to find that there was something at the bottom of the gift bag, so he turned the entire gift bag upside down on the table.

I saw stacks of food coupons and banknotes falling out.

Liu Haizhong roughly counted it and found that there were about 3000 yuan in cash alone, and there were exactly 5 food coupons worth 200 kilograms.

This is a huge sum of money.

For this, he called his wife with a look of shock,

"My dear, come out quickly, come out quickly."

Hearing Liu Haizhong's call, the second aunt hurried out from the inner room.

"What's wrong, Haizhong, what happened?"

When she saw the table full of banknotes and food coupons, she was completely stunned. To be honest, it was the first time she had seen so much money in her life.

"Haizhong, what's going on? Why are there so many money and food coupons? Where did they come from? Could it be that you..."

Faced with his wife's questioning, Liu Haizhong hurriedly explained,

"My dear, what are you thinking about? These are all given to us by Zhuzi. They are all in the gift bag containing Moutai."

After hearing Liu Haizhong's explanation, Second Aunt Chen Mei understood.

"Hainan, so that's how it is. But maybe Zhuzi made a mistake. Why did he give us so much money? He must have made a mistake. Let's go find him and clarify. Otherwise, if there's a misunderstanding later, it'll be troublesome."

Before Chen Mei could get up and leave, she was stopped by Liu Haizhong.

"My dear, don't go. I believe Zhuzi will not make a mistake. These money and food coupons are the gifts he gave to us old couple."

Hearing Liu Haizhong's words, Chen Mei looked suspicious.

"Hainaka, why are you so sure?"

Seeing that his wife still didn't quite believe him, Liu Haizhong continued to explain.

"My dear, when I was chatting with Zhuzi in the room just now, I could feel that he seemed to be coming to see us this time with a farewell intention. Maybe he was going to do something again.

Also, as far as I know, with Zhuzi's current financial resources, this money is just a drop in the bucket for him. It seems that he really wants to repay us, so we should just accept it."

After hearing Liu Haizhong's explanation, the honest Chen Mei did not insist and agreed with it.

"Okay, Haizhong, I'll listen to you."

In fact, in Liu Haizhong's opinion, He Yuzhu's generosity was obviously a way of repaying him for his help in his early years.

Thinking about it now, I feel that it was the right thing to do to help He Yuzhu and show goodwill to him.

If it weren't for my good deeds in the past, how could I have been rewarded today?

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

He Yuzhu had already arrived at the home of his third uncle Yan Bugui.

When Yan Bugui saw He Yuzhu's sudden visit, the expression on his face was even more surprised and shocked than before.

You have to know that He Yuzhu rarely visits their family every time he comes back.

Moreover, their family didn't have a very good relationship with the He family and they had almost no dealings with each other, which was why Yan Bugui reacted so strongly.

"Zhu Zi, why are you back? It's been more than 10 years since we last saw each other."

Hearing Yan Bugui's words, He Yuzhu nodded repeatedly.

"Uncle, you are right, we haven't seen each other for a long time.

So, this time I came back specially to visit you, my old neighbors.

Now, these are some of the gifts I brought to your house."

When Auntie Yang Ruihua heard that He Yuzhu brought a gift, she immediately came out of the house and took the gift from him with a smile on her face.

"Zhu Zi, you're here now, why are you being so polite?

Just treat our home as your own, it's okay if you don't give us gifts."

When He Yuzhu heard Yang Ruihua's slightly polite words, he took the gifts back from Yang Ruihua without saying anything, and left a bland remark,

"Third Aunt, since you said so, I will keep this gift. Your family doesn't need it anyway."

Hearing what He Yuzhu said, Yang Ruihua and Yan Bugui were completely dumbfounded. Only now did they remember that the person standing in front of them was the Shazhu from the Siheyuan, a man who did not play by the rules at all.

He Yuzhu looked at the expressions of the two and couldn't help cursing in his heart.

"It's okay, why are you pretending?"

Seeing He Yuzhu taking the gift back, Yan Bugui immediately gave Yang Ruihua a wink.

The latter immediately understood what he meant, and said again with a smile: "Zhu Zi, you misunderstood, I didn't say I don't want your gift, I just don't want you to spend too much."

When He Yuzhu heard this, he was immediately happy.

"Spend money? Oh, I get it. Next time I come to your house, I don't need to bring anything. I can just go empty-handed."

Seeing that his wife was making things worse, Yan Bugui immediately started to explain.

"Zhu Zi, you misunderstood. Your Third Aunt didn't mean that. We like your gift very much and want it very much."

He Yuzhu was quite satisfied when he heard Yan Bugui's answer and immediately stuffed the gift into his arms.

He likes this kind of straightforward villain rather than the hypocrite who talks about benevolence and morality.

"Uncle, I'm just kidding. How can I visit someone without bringing a gift?"
