Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

People around praised He Yudong for his bravery, while Bang Geng was taken to the police station.

He Yudong carried the meat, hummed a little tune, and walked towards the courtyard in a happy mood.

When they returned to the courtyard, Jia Zhang was sitting at the door crying and shouting.

"My dear grandson! Why were you captured? How can I live with you?"

Seeing He Yudong, Jia Zhang immediately changed her expression and rushed over viciously: "He Yudong! You bastard! Why did you hurt my stick? Pay for my stick!"

He Yudong sneered, dodged Jia Zhang's attack, and said with disdain: "Jia Zhang, stop spitting bloody words here! Banggeng was caught stealing things, what does it have to do with me? I was just doing what was right!"

"You're talking nonsense! You did it on purpose! You just want to hurt my dick!" Jia Zhang rolled over and cried, throwing a tantrum.

He Yudong didn't bother to pay attention to her and went straight back to his room.

He put the meat into the pot, added spiritual spring water, and started stewing the meat.

The fragrance quickly spread, attracting the neighbors in the courtyard to look in.

"It smells so good! Shazhu is making something delicious again!"

“This taste is absolutely amazing!”

When Jia Zhang smelled the aroma of meat, her stomach began to growl.

Her eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind.

She ran to He Yudong's door, crying and begging, "Shazhu, I know you have a good heart, please have pity on me! Banggeng is still young and doesn't understand, please help him!"

He Yudong opened the door and looked at Jia Zhang's hypocritical appearance, feeling disgusted.

"Jia Zhang, don't try to play tricks on me! Bang Geng stole things, it's his own fault! Why should I help him?"

Seeing that soft tactics didn't work, Jia Zhang immediately resorted to hard tactics, pointing at He Yudong's nose and cursing, "He Yudong! You have no conscience! You will not have a good death! You..."

Before she could finish her words, He Yudong suddenly picked up a basin of hot water and poured it on Jia Zhang.

"Ah!" Jia Zhang let out a scream, her whole body was wet and she looked in a miserable state.

He Yudong looked at her coldly and said word by word: "Jia Zhang, if you dare to make trouble again, it won't be as simple as hot water next time!"

Jia Zhang was startled for a moment, then she started to curse again, but her voice was much quieter and she was less confident. He Yudong slammed the door shut and ignored the curses outside. He returned to the house and looked at the meat stewing in the pot with a sneer on his face. This is just the beginning...

"Next month, I will take the level 5 machinist exam!" He Yudong said with a firm tone, as if the level 5 machinist certificate was already in his pocket.

Yang Guofu laughed: "Good boy, you are ambitious! Work hard, I am optimistic about you!"

He Yudong was very happy to receive the director's praise and became more motivated.

After get off work, He Yudong went to the pigeon market as usual. Since he had the spiritual spring water, the pigeons he raised were fat and strong, with delicious meat, and they were in short supply in the pigeon market.

While selling pigeons, he kept an eye out for any good stuff.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up. In an inconspicuous corner, an old man was fiddling with some broken parts.

He Yudong recognized it at a glance. It was the core component of the old machine tool! Although it was worn out, it could be revitalized with a little repair!

He pretended to walk over casually, squatted down, picked up a part and looked at it carefully.

"Young man, you know what you are talking about!" The old man said with a smile, "This is a good thing, but unfortunately I am old and don't have the strength to repair it."

He Yudong asked calmly: "Uncle, how much is this?"

"It's not expensive, not expensive, ten dollars, take it all." The old man stretched out his wrinkled hand.

Ten dollars! This is a bargain! He Yudong was delighted, but pretended to be hesitant: "Uncle, this thing is too old, I'm afraid it's hard to repair it."

The old man sighed: "Alas, young people nowadays are just too ambitious and incompetent. This thing can be used after a little repair. If you think it's too expensive, eight dollars is fine."

He Yudong pretended to think for a while, and finally agreed "reluctantly": "Okay, eight dollars is eight dollars, I'll buy it."

After paying the money, He Yudong took the parts home happily.

With these parts, he can assemble a simple machine tool, which will make it much easier to process parts in the future.

When they returned to the courtyard, as expected, Jia Zhang was cursing in the yard again.

"Silly Zhu! You bastard! You stole my chicken drumstick again!"

He Yudong rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to her. This old hag would feel uncomfortable if she didn't curse people for a day.

He went straight back into the house and started tinkering with his machine tool.

Seeing that He Yudong ignored her, Jia Zhang became even more excited and her voice became louder and louder.

"Silly! Are you deaf? I'm talking to you!"

He Yudong opened the door impatiently and said coldly: "Jia Zhang, if you dare to slander me again, I will call the police!"

When Jia Zhang heard that they were going to call the police, she immediately became timid, muttered something, and went back to the house in shame.

He Yudong closed the door and continued to assemble the machine tool.

With the blessing of the spiritual spring water, his craftsmanship improved by leaps and bounds, and soon a simple machine tool was assembled.

He tried to process a part and found that the precision was even higher than that of the machine tools in the factory!

He Yudong clenched his fists excitedly. With this machine tool, he could manufacture more precision parts and make more money!

He seemed to see a bright future and his heart was filled with hope.

In the next few days, He Yudong worked during the day and hid in the house to process parts at night.

The parts he manufactured were of high precision and low price, and soon attracted a group of customers.

His income also increased rapidly. In just one month, he earned several hundred yuan!

This was a huge sum of money at the time!

He Yudong now had money and felt more confident.

He no longer swallowed his anger as he did before, but dared to resist the oppression of the Jia family.

Once, Jia Zhang came to blackmail him again, saying that he had stolen Banggeng's eggs.

He Yudong sneered: "Jia Zhang, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will take you to court!"

Jia Zhang was so frightened that her face turned pale and she dared not say a word.

He Yudong felt relieved when he saw Jia Zhang's miserable appearance.

He is finally no longer the fool who allows himself to be bullied!

However, the good times did not last long.

One night, He Yudong was processing parts when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.

He opened the door and saw a group of people gathered in the yard, pointing at a woman.

He Yudong walked over and found that the woman was Qin Huairu!

Qin Huairu's clothes were torn and her face was covered with scars, she looked extremely miserable.

"What's going on?" He Yudong asked.

A neighbor pointed at Qin Huairu and said, "She was caught stealing!"

"Stealing?" He Yudong was stunned. He couldn't believe that Qin Huairu would steal things.

At this time, a man came over, pointed at Qin Huairu and said, "That's her! I saw her steal my wallet with my own eyes!"

Qin Huairu cried and said, "I didn't! I didn't steal anything!"

But no one believed her.

Someone in the crowd began to shout: "Kill her! Kill this thief!"

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, He Yudong quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Qin Huairu.

"Everyone calm down! Things haven't been clarified yet, don't act rashly!"

The crowd quieted down and looked at He Yudong.

He Yudong looked at Qin Huairu, his heart full of doubts.

Did Qin Huairu really steal something?

If not, why would she admit it?

If she really stole it, why did she do that?

Just when He Yudong was puzzled, a voice suddenly came from the crowd:

"I know why she steals!"

"Next month, I will take the fifth-level fitter exam!" He Yudong said proudly.

"Okay, Xiao He, you're ambitious!" Yang Guofu gave a thumbs up and lowered his voice mysteriously, "Let me tell you, the factory is going to select a group of technical backbones to study in the Soviet Union. I heard that the number of places is limited. If you can get the fifth-level fitter certificate as soon as possible, you will have a great chance!"

The Soviet Union! He Yudong's heart skipped a beat. It was the socialist big brother, with highly developed industry and world-leading technology. If he could study there, wouldn't his technical level soar like a rocket?

After bidding farewell to Yang Guofu, He Yudong hummed a little tune all the way back to the courtyard. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw Jia Zhang sitting in the yard, gossiping with a few neighboring old ladies.

"Oh, let me tell you, that kid Shazhu is now really good, he's already a level 4 fitter! His monthly salary is almost fifty yuan! If he gets promoted to the next level, it will be heaven!"

"Who says it's not true? This Shazhu is lucky to have such a good job. Unlike my husband, he works so hard and only makes more than 30 yuan a month." The third aunt said sourly.

Jia Zhang shook her head proudly: "That's not the case. Look whose son he is! He's my son, how could he be any worse?"

He Yudong rolled his eyes, not wanting to bother with the old woman, and went straight back to the house. As soon as he sat down, he heard Banggeng crying outside.

"Grandma, I'm hungry! I want to eat meat!"

"My dear grandson, your mother and father have eaten up all the meat! Grandma will go and ask your Uncle Shazhu for some!" Jia Zhang's voice was flattering and sharp.

He Yudong sneered. This old witch is trying to get money again. He simply bolted the door and pretended not to hear anything.

The knocking on the door by Jia Zhang became more and more urgent, mixed with Bang Geng's crying, like a lullaby that penetrated the brain.

"Shazhu! Shazhu! Open the door! Banggeng is crying because of hunger!"

He Yudong covered his ears, feeling extremely irritated. When will this day end?

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and a bold plan took shape in his mind. He suddenly opened the door, scaring Jia Zhangshi.

"What are you doing? Are you crying?" He Yudong said in an unfriendly tone.

Jia Zhang put on a fake smile and said, "Silly Zhu, look, Bang Geng is crying from hunger, can you..."

"No!" He Yudong interrupted her, "Don't bother me again! Why should I spend my own money on you?"

The smile on Jia Zhang's face froze, and then turned into anger: "You have no conscience! You watched Banggeng grow up, and you don't even give him food?"

"Bullshit!" He Yudong retorted unceremoniously, "When did I see Banggeng grow up? He and I have no relationship at all, why should I care about him? If you really love him, go and earn money to support him!"

Jia Zhang was shocked by He Yudong's tough attitude and was speechless for a while. Banggeng's crying gradually became quieter, and his little eyes rolled around, and no one knew what he was thinking.

He Yudong was too lazy to bother with them anymore and slammed the door.

Back in the house, He Yudong began to implement his plan. He pulled out a box from under the bed, which contained all his savings, a total of more than 300 yuan.

He originally planned to use the money to marry a wife, but now he has changed his mind.

He decided to use the money to leave the suffocating courtyard and pursue a new life of his own.
