With Jia Zhang's demonstration, several other less particular women also started to pick up the plates and pour the vegetables into the bag.

This stirred up a hornet's nest. Everyone present stopped eating quietly and started scrambling for food.

Just as the scene was in chaos, an old boy with a horse face broke into the courtyard, shouting, "Oh no! He Yuzhu is in trouble! The police are coming to arrest him soon!"

The crowd who were originally happily grabbing the food were suddenly in an uproar. Even the police came. It seemed that He Yuzhu's crime was definitely not a small one.

"Xu Damao! What are you yelling about? Be careful or I'll beat you to death!" The deaf old lady got angry when she heard Xu Damao's words. She took a piece of firewood from the kitchen and was about to beat Xu Damao with it.

"No, old lady, calm down first, let's talk it over." After stopping the furious deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai turned to Xu Damao and shouted, "Xu Damao, quickly explain the matter. What trouble did Zhuzi get into? Tell me now!"

"Uncle, I just came back from my hometown with my parents, and I saw a pair of policemen asking people where He Yuzhu lives. My parents are holding them back, so they asked me to come back and report the news first.

You don't know, uncle, they have weapons in their hands. If He Yuzhu hadn't committed a crime, why would they go looking for him?"

After hearing what Xu Damao said, Yi Zhonghai quickly called He Yuzhu and asked, "Zhuzi, tell me the truth. Did you get into trouble outside? Tell us so that we can help you."

Although Yi Zhonghai said nice things, if He Yuzhu really did something wrong, he would immediately distance himself from him.

He even began to be thankful that He Yuzhu was indifferent to him, otherwise he might have been implicated.

"Uncle, don't listen to his nonsense. How come I don't know what trouble I've gotten into?" He Yuzhu said lightly.

"Just pretend, you'll cry someday."

After hearing Xu Damao's sarcastic remarks, He Yuzhu observed his mortal enemy, who was still a child, up close for the first time.

Xu Damao is only twelve years old now, and his young face does not yet have the shrewdness and calculation that he will have when he grows up.

In his previous life, Xu Damao could be said to have fought with him for most of his life, and had a miserable life. In the end, he got what he wanted, his family was broken up, and he almost froze to death on the street.

In the end, he helped the impoverished Xu Damao, taught him some cooking skills, and enabled him to find a job to make a living.

Because of this friendship, the two of them in their later years were no longer at odds with each other as they used to be, and they even became good friends.

Unfortunately, two years before He Yuzhu became paralyzed, Xu Damao was dissatisfied with his current life and decided to go to the south to make a living. After that, he left the city and never came back.

I wonder if Xu Damao would go to the cemetery with a bottle of wine to have a drink with him after he knew he had frozen to death?

But no matter what happens in the future, Xu Damao is still his mortal enemy, and he does not intend to reconcile with Xu Damao like he did in his previous life. Anyway, his life trajectory in the future will probably have little intersection with Xu Damao, so it is better to just stay away from him.

At this time, a group of people walked into the compound. They were wearing dark green uniforms and holding steel guns in their hands. They looked as if they had just come down from the battlefield, and they exuded a strong smell of blood.

Seeing this team of murderous policemen, everyone in the compound stood up from their seats and moved back inconspicuously.

Although Yi Zhonghai was a little timid, as the master of the courtyard house, he could only go up to meet them with Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui.

"Comrade, I am the manager of this courtyard. What do you want to do?" Yi Zhonghai said tremblingly.

"Does He Yuzhu live here? We have something to look for him." The leader said expressionlessly.

Seeing the leader's expression, Yi Zhonghai's heart skipped a beat. It didn't seem like a good thing.

Yi Zhonghai collapsed, and Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, the second and third uncles, were even more incompetent. One looked up at the sky to count the clouds, and the other looked at the ground. It seemed as if the ordinary floor tiles had magic for a moment and caught Yan Bugui's attention.

Not only did the three old men act as if they didn't know He Yuzhu, the others were not much better.

The people who had been surrounding He Yuzhu and praising her cooking skills immediately backed away from her, leaving a large space around her, as if she had some infectious disease.

However, only one of them still stayed with He Yuzhu, and that was the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady looked at the steel guns in their hands, stepped forward and asked, "Hello comrade, what do you want to see He Yuzhu about?"

"Excuse me, who are you?" The person in front asked curiously, looking at the old lady whose legs were shaking but still standing in front of them.

"I am He Yuzhu's grandmother. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me. Zhuzi is still a child. Please don't make things difficult for him." For the first time, there was a hint of pleading in the deaf old lady's voice.

But what the deaf old lady didn't expect was that the other party not only didn't do anything, but also said to her kindly: "Old lady, you misunderstood. We didn't come here to arrest him this time, but to praise Comrade He Yuzhu."

"Captain Wang, I remember that I didn't do anything worthy of praise." He Yuzhu stepped forward and patted the deaf old lady on the shoulder, pulled her behind, and said familiarly to the leading captain.

The moment the police pair came in, He Yuzhu discovered that the leader was Captain Wang, whom he had known before.

The reason why he hid behind and didn't show up was that he wanted to see the reactions of the people in the courtyard. As expected, everyone avoided him as if he were the plague god.

Instead of feeling disappointed, He Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief.

He Yuzhu knew very well what the other people in the courtyard were like. If they all spoke up for him, that would be real trouble.

After this incident, He Yuzhu can now legitimately distance himself from the beasts in this compound. After all, when they were in trouble, you didn't step forward to help and speak up, but instead avoided them as if they were the plague.

Do you still have the nerve to continue dating him? Even if someone shameless wants to pester He Yuzhu in the future, he will just break up with her, and no one can say he is wrong.

It can be said that from today on, He Yuzhu officially severed ties with everyone in the courtyard except the deaf old lady. This is the biggest gain today.

Hearing He Yuzhu's familiar tone, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that He Yuzhu, at such a young age, actually knew the police, and it seemed that he had a high status.

As soon as Captain Wang saw He Yuzhu, his originally somewhat forgotten memories immediately became clear, because the impression was so deep.
