Siheyuan: Married a female spy at the beginning of 1944

Chapter 196 4 The Beast in the Courtyard Emerges

In addition, even if you save enough money for retirement when you are young, life in old age without a family is still very difficult.

Many times, wealthy families cannot survive as well as poor families who make a living by picking up garbage.

No one cares about the poor and the childless, but the rich and the childless will be taken care of by their relatives.

This one needs retirement care, and that one needs retirement care.

After being brought home, he died inexplicably within a year or two.

Then the property went to the relatives.

When Ma Liu heard that his wife wanted him to find a surrogate mother outside, he subconsciously retorted.

"No, we can live just as well without children. I can't let you suffer any injustice."

When Ma Liu's wife heard what Ma Liu said, she felt much better.

"Sixth son, no matter what, we have to find someone to take care of us in our old age, if we hire someone from outside.

Maybe after he knows his own background, he will be mean to us.

If you find a woman outside and have a child with her, it is your own child no matter what.

Even if he is not filial, we will accept it. It is not a loss for him to give him the property we have saved.

After all, when we die, he will still burn paper for us every year."

Ma Liu's wife has come to terms with it.

Anyway, I just want children, not women.

She has been raising the child since he was young, and as long as no one talks too much about it, the child will not know his own life experience.

When Ma Liu saw that his wife was serious, he was also moved.

However, he also knew that he had no say in the matter.

"Let's discuss this matter with Big Brother. If Big Brother agrees, we'll do it. If he doesn't agree, we'll talk about it later.

But as for the house, I think we can start first. We can’t buy the Siheyuan, but we can still get a wing room in the Siheyuan.”

"Okay, I'll discuss it with my brother tomorrow.

Do you want to buy a house too? I think it’s good to buy a house. It’s safe to leave it there and it won’t get lost or run away.

Even if you don't live there yourself, you can still earn rental income by renting it out.

Which house do you like? I'll go take a look tomorrow."

“It’s the house that belonged to Abe before. It used to belong to Old Lady Tong, but now everyone says it’s a haunted house.

Old Mrs. Tong couldn’t rent out the house, so I might as well spend some money to buy it.

Then I'll find a Taoist priest to perform a ritual, and then I'll sublet the place."

Ma Liu had long been attracted by Old Lady Tong's courtyard house.

He already knew that Li Wanqiu had been taken away by the Imperial Army.

I also know that He Daqing had previously served as an officer in the Imperial Army.

With his clever mind, he knew that He Daqing must have been in trouble.

Now no one knows where He Daqing and his family have gone.

The only people left in the courtyard were a few elderly, weak, sick and disabled people.

He felt that as long as he put a little effort into it, he could slowly take over the entire courtyard.

If done right, we could even get He Daqing's two houses.

Now, all he needed was to get Old Lady Tong to agree to sell Abe's houses to him.

Old Mrs. Tong doesn't know yet that someone has already started to covet her house.

Ever since two Japanese families moved into her yard without paying rent, her life has been getting worse and worse.

Now the Jia family, the Yan family, the Xu family, and the Liu family pay her rent.

However, all of these companies are in arrears.

Look at her, she is just an old widow living alone and has no one to support her.

Rent should be delayed if possible.

When He Daqing was around, whenever the old lady encountered something like this, she would always ask He Daqing to come forward and help speak up.

As a wealthy man, He Daqing would naturally help an old widow to seek justice.

Therefore, the old lady was very kind to He Daqing, He Yuzhu, and Yu Shui.

Whenever the old lady has some snacks, she will think of these two little brothers.

As for Xu Damao, Jia Dongxu and other kids, they did not receive such treatment.

Now no one knows where He Daqing has gone, and the other families have started to delay paying their house payments with various excuses.

They just saw that the old lady was alone and couldn't do anything to them.

"Liu Haizhong, it's time to pay your rent. You've been in arrears for a month. Do you want me, an old woman, to starve to death?"

Liu Haizhong turned his head awkwardly, then pretended to apologize to Old Lady Tong and said

"Auntie, I don't have any money. Look at my family, we can barely make ends meet. Please wait a few more days. When the factory pays you, I will send it to you right away. Is that okay with you?"

Old Mrs. Tong looked at the cornmeal pancakes on the table and her teeth itched with anger.

"Your family can't even afford to eat, who else in the yard can afford to eat this? Liu Haizhong, if you don't pay me the rent today, then use these things to pay off the debt."

As Old Mrs. Tong spoke, she picked up the tortilla on the table and turned to leave.

Liu Haizhong didn't chase after her, but he gave his wife a look.

After receiving the look, Liu Haizhong's wife immediately stepped forward and snatched the lid of the tortilla from Old Lady Tong's hand.

"Shenzi, you are going too far. We are not not paying you rent. We are just letting you stay for two days. How can you steal things?

Have you been a neighbor for so many years in vain? Tell me, who doesn't have difficulties at some point?

If you do this, we won’t pay you rent in the future.

To put it bluntly, even if we don't pay the rent, what can you do to us?

What a mess the streets are in nowadays. If we don't help you take care of this yard, do you think this yard can still be yours?

Can you still live here honestly?

People, be content. "

The old lady was furious, but she couldn't snatch Liu Haizhong's wife away.

She let go of the curtain.

"You two, if you don't pay me the rent today, I will go to the police station to sue you tomorrow.

I tell you to pack up and get out."

Liu Haizhong's wife was a little scared.

She looked at Liu Haizhong hesitantly.

Liu Haizhong coughed.

"Auntie, look at what you said, what will happen even if you go to the police station?

You are so old, haven't you heard that sentence?

The gate of the yamen faces south. If you don't have money, don't come in. Do you think you can really get the rent back if you go to the police station?

By then, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your yard.

Besides, we just owe you rent, we didn’t say we wouldn’t pay you.

Couldn't you give us a few more days?

Don't worry, I will definitely give you the money. How about next month? I will send it to you as soon as I get my salary next month."

Old Mrs. Tong also knew that what Liu Haizhong said made sense.

If she did go to the police.

When those vampires found out that she was alone and childless, they might have done something even more cruel than Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong just wants to avoid paying the rent.

But there is a high probability that that group of people will take over Grandma Tong’s house for themselves.

After all, Old Lady Tong is alone. She is the kind of person that no one would care about even if she died.

It is entirely possible that this group of police officers could directly kill people and seize the house.
