Siheyuan Shangpeng

Shang Peng climbed over the wall and entered the yard, and found that it was a small courtyard. There was no one in the side rooms on the left or right, and only the sound of talking could be heard from the main room.

Shang Peng quietly walked along the wall to the back of the main room and listened carefully to the conversation in the room. Shang Peng couldn't help but be thankful for his strengthened body last night, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to hear any sound in the room.

Then I heard the voice of the deaf old lady coming from inside, "Daozi, old lady, I'm here to ask you for a favor."

A man's voice came from inside, "Madam, what are you talking about? If it weren't for you, Dao would not be alive today. If you have something to say, just ask someone to tell me. Why bother to come here in person?"

"Okay, Daozi, this is the last time. After this, neither of us will know each other. I won't look for you in the future, and you won't know me. Is this okay?"

"Madam, please don't say that. I am not the kind of ungrateful person. It's just that you see my wife is pregnant now, and I want to have my own child in two years, so... hehe!"

"I understand, I understand, that's why I won't look for you again. Just do me one last favor, take these, and when you have children in the future, they will be my advance gift to you."

"That won't do...that won't do...Okay! Then I'll thank you for the reward on behalf of my unborn child! Madam, what do you want this time? I'll make the knife look beautiful for you."

"Daozi, we are not strangers, so I will tell you the truth. A stranger came to the courtyard where I live. They just came from Fengtian yesterday. Can you help me make his family disappear? We have to let the police find out that it was done by spies. Is that okay? Don't worry, it's not difficult for you. As long as the person shuts up, I, the old lady, will find a way to make it appear that it was done by spies."

"Madam, if you say so, I can do it. Don't worry. Do you want me to do it that day?"

"This matter cannot be delayed. I will find someone to take them out this afternoon. You find someone to do it."

"We're a bit pressed for time, ma'am. Tell me the place and I'll get it done for you!"

"Okay, I'll find someone to take them to XX place at 2 pm. You should ambush them in advance. Once this is done, you and I will have nothing to do with each other anymore."

"Okay, Madam, you go first, I'll go find someone later, don't worry, they will shut up as soon as someone shows up!"

Then there was the sound of a door opening, and footsteps faded away. After a while, people returned to the main house, and the woman's voice was heard, "Boss, do you really have to work for that damn old lady? Can't we just live a good life?"

"Alas, you don't understand. That damn old woman has more than one backup plan for me. Only if she lets go can we live in peace. Don't worry, she won't come looking for us after this time! After this time, we will move away to a place where they can't find us. Just wait for me at home. I'll be back for dinner in the evening."

Then there was the sound of a door opening and footsteps fading away. Shang Peng realized that he could not hear any more news and climbed over the back wall to get out.

After going out, Shang Peng was dumbfounded. Where is this? He followed Yi Zhonghai at that time, and now he is lost! There is no way. If there is anything, he will find the police. Fortunately, he has his ID with him, otherwise he will have to explain himself before he can go home.

Shang Peng hurriedly ran two streets before he saw a group of patrolling police officers. He took out his certificate and explained the situation. Under the suspicious gaze of the police officers, he was taken to the Nanluoguxiang Street Office. Fortunately, Director Wang was there. He explained everything to the police officers and thanked them before he was let go. Now he knew how to get home, so Shang Peng hurried home.

The family was anxiously waiting for him at the door. Shang Peng closed the door quickly and told them what had happened along the way before their father and mother got angry.

Both Mr. Shang and his mother were silent. Mr. Shang raised his head and said to his mother, "Mother, it seems that we have really touched their sore spot. They are going to catch us all in one fell swoop. Haha... Do you really think that I, Shang Yun, am easy to bully? So, you two will accompany your mother and Zhuzi to the street office to explain the situation. I will go to look for old friends."

"Dad, is this possible? If not, let's report it to the police."

"No, didn't you hear what Xiaopeng said? The old lady should have someone in the government. You don't have to worry about it. Leave it to me. More than ten years have passed. It's time for me, Shang Yunlong, to show up. I wonder if my old friends are still around?"

"Okay, you better be careful, dad! We'll go to the street office and tell them about our relationship with Zhuzi."

"Go ahead, but remember not to mention that someone is doing something bad to us. I'm afraid the Street Office has their people as well."

"Okay, I'll listen to you and we'll set off now."

Here, Shang's mother took a few people to the street office, while Shang's father went out and walked towards Shichahai.

Shang's father came to an alley on the shore of Luosha Lake and walked according to the location he remembered. After a while, he came to the entrance of a courtyard. After hesitating for a moment, he went forward and knocked on the door.

Knock, knock, knock… Following the knock on the door, a woman’s voice came from inside, “Who is it? I’m here!”

The door was opened, and a woman poked her head out. After seeing Mr. Shang, she rubbed her eyes, then excitedly jumped on Mr. Shang and shouted, "Brother, it's really you, Brother, where have you been all these years? We all missed you so much!"

"Come down quickly, you are already an adult, why are you still acting like a child when you see your senior brother?"

"Haha... I'm so happy, senior brother, come in quickly!" The woman got off Shang Fu embarrassedly.

At this time, an old man's voice came from the courtyard, "Juanzi, your senior brother is here, you are so happy!"

When Shang's father heard the voice, tears appeared in his eyes. He looked blankly towards the yard. An old man in the yard was also looking at Shang's father.

Suddenly the old man smiled and said to Shang's father: "Hey, who is this? Isn't this Shang Yunlong? Why are you willing to come back?"

Mr. Shang took two quick steps, knelt down in front of the old man, kowtowed three times and said, "Master, Xiaoyun is back. I am an unfilial disciple. I have not been filial to you in the past few years. Please forgive me. I will not leave and will come to see you often in the future. I hope you will not find me annoying in the future."

The old man was also very pleased and said to Mr. Shang: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back! Why did you come alone? Didn't you say in your letter that you were married? What about your wife and children?"

"Master, I originally wanted to settle down and then bring my wife and children to pay my respects to you, but something has gone wrong and I can only ask you to help me. After all, I have been away for so many years, and I don't know where many of my old friends have gone. I have no choice but to trouble you brothers."

"Oh? What's the matter? You're causing trouble just after coming back? Come into the house and talk to me first." After saying that, he led Shang's father into the living room and sat down on a chair.
