Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

When He Yuzhu and his wife returned home, it was already completely dark.

He Yuzhu rushed into the kitchen without saying a word and started cooking.

After dinner, He Yuzhu picked up his lunch box and prepared to go back to the courtyard to deliver the meal to the deaf old lady.

Chen Xueru couldn't help but complain, "Zhu Zi, when will the old lady die? You run back and forth like this, aren't you tired? It makes me sad just watching you."

He Yuzhu remembered that the deaf old lady in his previous life died in 1970, and said angrily:

"That old guy is in very good health. It will probably take another four or five years for him to die."

Chen Xueru said coldly: "Good people don't live long, but evil people live for thousands of years!"

"Hubby, why don't you bring her to my house? It's not a good idea for you to run back and forth every day like this."

He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "No, you can't let her dirty your house."

"I'll go back and discuss with her to see if we can send her to a nursing home."

Chen Xueru's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said excitedly:

"That's a good idea. Go back and tell her."

"Okay, I'll go back and tell her."

He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard and gave the lunch box to the deaf old lady. The deaf old lady opened the lunch box impatiently and began to eat it voraciously.

After the deaf old lady finished her dinner, He Yuzhu wanted to suggest sending her to a nursing home, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

After all, the deaf old lady had transferred the house to his name and gave him all the food coupons and food stamps. He had also promised to take care of her in her old age and see her to the end of her life, but now he had gone back on his word and proposed to send her to a nursing home. She would most likely not agree.

If the deaf old lady told this matter to others, he would be criticized by everyone and be regarded as a mean man who did not keep his word.

The deaf old lady was very experienced and immediately saw that He Yuzhu had something to say. She said kindly:

"Zhu Zi, you seem to have something to say to me?"

He Yuzhu smiled calmly: "Old lady, I do have something to tell you. Chen Xueru gave birth to twin sons for me."

The deaf old lady was overjoyed when she heard this and said, "This is a great happy event. Why were you so sad just now?"

He Yuzhu evaded the question by saying, "This is indeed a great thing, but I have four sons at once, and the pressure in the future will definitely be great."

When the deaf old lady heard this, her expression kept changing. Finally, she gritted her teeth, took out an iron box from under the bed and placed it in front of He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, this is all my property, and now I'm giving it all to you!"

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, "Old lady, did you misunderstand something? I'm not telling you this to ask you for money."

The deaf old lady smiled and said, "Zhu Zi, don't get excited. I am an old lady with no children. It is useless to keep this money in my hands. It is better to improve your life."

"To be honest, old lady, meeting you is my greatest luck in this life. You take care of me without regrets and give me delicious meals every day. I have nothing else to ask for in this life."

The deaf old lady's words were half true and half false. The biggest reason why she wanted to give all her savings to He Yuzhu was that she noticed that He Yuzhu was getting a little impatient with him bringing her meals every day.

The world is bustling with people seeking profit, and the world is bustling with people seeking profit. She believed that as long as she gave the money to He Yuzhu, she could eliminate He Yuzhu's dissatisfaction.

In addition, she was not afraid that He Yuzhu would go back on his word. After all, He Yuzhu was now the deputy director of the logistics department of the steel rolling mill. He was in a high position and would care more about his reputation.

Also, she knew He Yuzhu very well and knew that he was a man who kept his promises. As long as he promised something, he would grit his teeth and do it no matter how reluctant he was.

He Yuzhu thought for two seconds, then pushed the iron box back and said seriously:

"Old lady, you should take the iron box back. I earn 150 yuan a month now, so I have no shortage of money."

The deaf old lady pushed the iron box back again and said in a deep voice:

"Zhu Zi, I know you don't need money now, but this is a token of my love. If you don't want to accept it, it means you don't want to support me in my old age."

He Yuzhu's eyes flickered when he heard this. After a moment, he smiled bitterly and said:

"Old lady, I have to accept all these things from you."

The deaf old lady's eyes narrowed into a line of smile and she said softly:

"Zhu Zi, I will give you my savings sooner or later. It makes no difference whether you receive it now or later."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Thank you, old lady!"

"You're welcome. If anyone is going to thank you, it should be me who should thank you."

"By the way, when are you going to bring your two sons back to me? You said you would bring your first two sons back to me, but not long after, you got divorced, and I didn't see them!"

"Chen Xueru is still in confinement after giving birth. I will bring her back to you after a while."

"Then I'll wait."

He Yuzhu chatted with Chen Xueru for a few more words and then said goodbye.

After He Yuzhu left the deaf old lady's house, he did not go to Chen Xueru's house immediately, but returned to his own home because he wanted to check how much money was in the box that the deaf old lady gave her.

When the iron box was opened, the golden light almost blinded his eyes.

It turned out that there were a total of twenty-five small yellow croakers in the iron box. In addition to the small yellow croakers, there were also five bracelets and two pearl necklaces, and their quality was not ordinary.

According to a rough estimate, the value of these things would not be less than three thousand yuan.

He Yuzhu's face was full of smiles, but then the smile disappeared and turned into anger.

Because he had never seen these gold and silver jewelry in his previous life. After the deaf old lady died, he was busy preparing for the funeral of old lady Long, and Qin Huairu was the one who packed up the deaf old lady's belongings.

After the deaf old lady was buried, he asked Qin Huairu whether the deaf old lady left any property.

Qin Huairu said no. It was obvious that the bitch lied and she had embezzled all the gold and silver jewelry.

He Yuzhu cursed inwardly, threw the iron box into the space, closed the door, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.

He Yuzhu returned to the small western-style building, and Chen Xueru couldn't wait to ask:

"Honey, does the deaf old lady agree to go to the nursing home?"

He Yuzhu didn't say anything, just shook his head.

Seeing this, Chen Xueru cursed: "Why does this old thing disagree? She is not your mother. She has no right to ask you to take care of her in her old age."

"It's not that she disagrees, but I didn't tell the deaf old lady about this." He Yuzhu explained.

Chen Xueru was puzzled and asked, "Why didn't you say it? Are you really willing to take care of her until the end of her life?"

He Yuzhu said angrily, "Only a bastard would be willing to take care of her until the end of her life. The reason I didn't tell her is because I know she would never agree to go to a nursing home. After all, I serve her with good food and wine every day. She would be crazy to go to a nursing home."

"I knew she wouldn't agree, but I still brought it up. It would only make our relationship worse. If the deaf old lady spreads this, people will criticize me for not keeping my word. After all, I promised to take care of you until the end of your life."

"Besides, I am now the deputy director of the logistics department. I have to pay attention to my reputation and not lose the big picture because of small things."
