Chapter 1178
Not for Calculation, Just to Repay a Favor
"Did no one ask her how she knew where the Yi family hid the money?" He Yuzhu asked mischievously.
He Yuzhu's words were a bit murderous. The whole alley knew about the mess between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, but everyone was not blind. Many things were like lice on the monk's head, and they were all obvious.
To be honest, when He Yuzhu knew that Yi Zhonghai was involved in selling stolen goods, he had already anticipated the fate of the Yi family.
What he didn't expect was that the originally inconspicuous Tian Ya could be so scheming.
This is an unexpected surprise.
The affairs of the Yi family definitely have nothing to do with He Yuzhu. Now that he is in his current position, he cannot interfere in many things.
When reading biographies of famous officials in ancient times, you will always see some small stories. No matter how high the official position is, he still treats his neighbors with courtesy.
For example, when a neighbor's child gets married and invites guests to dinner, even if the neighbor is just an ordinary person, the prime minister has to give gifts like other ordinary neighbors, and then sit at the table with the ordinary neighbors to eat, drink and brag.
Examples in this regard include Fan Zhongyan and Bao Zheng.
Regardless of whether the story is true or false, it at least shows that this is how society perceives good officials and bad officials.
Specifically for He Yuzhu, he can no longer fight to the death with ordinary people like Yi Zhonghai. It is a loss of face whether he wins or loses.
Now that Tian Ya has done this, she has cut off Yi Zhonghai's retreat.
This woman is unwilling to pay money to atone for Yi Zhonghai's sins now. When Yi Zhonghai comes out, she will naturally be even more unwilling to get involved with him.
This is why He Yuzhu is happy.
He was abandoned by his friends and relatives and had no money left. When Yi Zhonghai came out, he was just a lame old man with no money and no family. His future fate was predictable.
He Yuzhu did not get involved in these key matters at all. He could just grab a handful of melon seeds and stand on the sidelines to watch the fun with a clear conscience.
However, this matter was also thrilling for Tian Ya.
She knew what had happened on the day Yi Zhonghai was arrested.
Although Tian Ya was prepared, she still felt like the sky was falling.
Tian Ya collapsed at the door, not even having the strength to get up and go to the office to ask.
The neighbors in the courtyard were also divided into two factions. For example, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Jia family, who had been trying to please Yi Zhonghai for a long time but had not gained any benefits, laughed loudly and said a lot of bad things. They said all kinds of things like "this is retribution" and "God has eyes" and so on.
The others didn't know how deeply involved Yi Zhonghai was, so out of caution, they didn't dare to have anything to do with the Yi family at this time.
Only Yang Ruihua helped Tian Ya sit on the chair, while the other neighbors just watched from the side.
If there is one person with a conscience in the whole courtyard, it has to be Liu Haizhong. After returning from get off work that day, he dragged Yan Bugui to take care of the Yi family.
Yan Bugui said with a sad face at that time: "Lao Liu, how can we help with this matter? How dare we help?
If you are not afraid, go ahead. I don’t have the courage.”
After saying that, Yan Bugui was about to sneak back home, but Liu Haizhong grabbed him by the back of the collar.
Liu Haizhong rarely talked to Yan Bugui about reason this time, but he stood in the middle courtyard and said to everyone: "Everyone knows that Yi Zhonghai and I parted ways unhappily some time ago.
I don't want to be the nice guy.
But since everyone lives in the same yard, Yi Zhonghai deserves the punishment and this matter will be handled by the government.
We don't get involved.
But we have to help organize the Yi family's shop and see how much of it was earned by the couple through their work, and it has nothing to do with that.
As for Cao'er and her daughter's food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, and how they will make a living in the future, should we also go to the street office to help inquire?
People are all made of flesh and blood, and everyone's family may have disasters. If we stand aside today, you can guarantee that nothing will happen to your family in the future. Also, Lao Yan, it's understandable that others don't help, but you are embarrassed? Yi Zhonghai has the best relationship with you in the whole courtyard."
Yan Bugui was named, but he felt embarrassed and said in a vague way: "It's not that I won't help. Don't we have to wait until the matter is clear before we know how to help and where to help?"
“What Lao Liu said makes sense. We can’t give money, nor can we save people, but we can help the Yi family with chores and find out about the follow-up.
I support this, I will go to the neighborhood committee tomorrow to ask for help." The speaker was old man Guo.
After the Chinese New Year, the couple both aged a lot.
Since Guo Shumiao left, the old couple have repented, but it is too late.
They didn't even know where Guo Shumiao had gone. They wanted to apologize to Guo Shumiao and restore their relationship, but they couldn't find him.
Guo Shumiao had sent letters, but due to her special status, each of her letters had to go to Lao Lu first and be checked before it could be handed over to the Guo family.
In the letter, no mention of Guo Shumiao's current situation can be made.
This is quite necessary for Lao Lu and others.
After all, Guo Shumiao is now taking on the identity of He Yushui.
And Guo Shumiao will go to Xiaorizi to do some business soon. Lou Xiao'e said to the public that as Xiaorizi is the fastest growing economy in Asia, it must carry out business layout.
But only Lou Xiao'e herself knows the specific reason.
This change immediately elevated Guo Shumiao's status on Lao Lu's side.
You know, Guo Shumiao is able to take care of his own life, and his importance is rising rapidly.
Specifically speaking of the Guo family, Guo Lei was talked to by the relevant departments. That is to say, if someone inquires about Guo Shumiao's news, Guo Lei must take it seriously and not leak it.
The old couple of the Guo family didn't know about it, and no one cared about them.
But the impact this caused was that the old couple felt that Guo Shumiao was really heartbroken by them and was unwilling to tell them where she had been.
Anyway, it's just sadness.
In life, we only regret after we lose something.
The few families in the yard who were capable of doing well were all forcibly assigned tasks by Liu Haizhong.
After Liu Haizhong finished some things, such as the Yi family's auto repair shop, he helped to take care of some of them.
I helped put away some things that were left outside and then locked the door.
Only then did Liu Haizhong move his fat body and return home.
His wife had been impatient for a long time. Today, Liu Haizhong's reaction was not normal, but extremely abnormal.
Not to mention the falling out between him and Yi Zhonghai some time ago, Liu Haizhong's temper is not that kind either.
Most of the time when neighbors in the yard have problems, Liu Haizhong will only go to help after being asked repeatedly.
This was the first time that Liu Haizhong took the initiative to help.
Liu Haizhong saw his wife standing aside with a strange expression on her face, and he knew what his wife was thinking.
He said directly and unhappily: “Don’t let your imagination run wild, I will repay you.
If Yi Zhonghai hadn't rejected me at the beginning, Guangfu might have been involved in this matter." (End of this chapter)
