When Sha Zhu saw Yi Zhonghai asking back with confidence, he thought about it carefully and it seemed that this was really the case.

His momentum suddenly weakened by three points, but he still complained:

"But you didn't tell us that you sent us living expenses, so how can this be the same?

And why haven't you mentioned it in all these years? The total amount of money is over a thousand. Where is the money?"

Yi Zhonghai concealed his upturned mouth corners and explained in a serious tone:

"You were so angry at the time and had such deep resentment towards your father, what else could I say?

And I thought about it carefully at the time, and for the sake of your family, it would be better to keep it a secret for the time being.

With your impatience, if you lose your temper and reveal all your family secrets, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get a job in a steel mill, right?"

Sha Zhu was quite indignant and snorted, "So you mean it's for my own good? Besides, am I that stupid to just reveal my past?"

Maybe Sha Zhu had a filter for Yi Zhonghai, or maybe he knew that he was not very reliable, and Yi Zhonghai's few words actually calmed down most of his anger.

Although the lady didn't quite understand the whole story, she was definitely on Yi Zhonghai's side, so she chimed in:

"Yes, Zhuzi, the neighbors have been watching how we treated you over the years. Keeping something secret doesn't necessarily mean there is bad intention."

When He Yushui saw this scene, she felt a little disappointed. Her brother was so stupid, yet he wanted to take charge of the matter and not let her say anything.

She couldn't stand it any longer, so she stood up and asked angrily, "No matter what your original purpose was, was it necessary to hide it for so many years?

National food coupons are time-limited. Do you dare to say that you have never used them?

I once fainted from hunger when I was a child. Is this what you always say is for our own good?

When you occasionally gave me food, I always remembered your kindness. So you are giving me something that should belong to me, right? "

After hearing what his sister said, Sha Zhu's anger flared up again. He grabbed Yi Zhonghai by the collar, lifted him up from the stool, and glared at him and cursed:

"Yeah, you guys are too shameless, hand over the money quickly, and don't try to fool around with the food coupons!"

Yi Zhonghai's heart skipped a beat. He was really worried that Sha Zhu, this young man, would not take things seriously, so he quickly said something nice to calm him down:

"Zhu Zi, don't worry. I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation. If this matter gets out of hand, it won't be good for our two families."

These words were both a plea for mercy and a threat.

At the same time, he glanced at He Yushui and thought with some resentment in his heart: "You are a money-loser that even He Daqing doesn't want. I should be grateful for giving you two meals, but you dare to ruin my business!"

It's really hard to fool educated people. I should have persuaded Sha Zhu not to let this girl go to school. The whole family is full of idiots, but there is a smart person among them.

He Daqing is also a fool. When his identity was checked, he could have fooled people by telling half-truths like me, but he even dared to make up a story saying that he was a poor peasant for three generations.

Just wait for me, little girl. Even if you get into a good school, I will ruin your chance!'

Sha Zhu was still angry, his other hand clenched into a fist, and urged: "Just tell me what you want to say!"

"Let me go first. Do you still have any respect for the elderly and love for the young?" Yi Zhonghai said as he tried to pry Sha Zhu's hands apart.

It turned out that the strength of this experienced fitter's hand was completely useless against the hand that was flipping the ladle.

He Yushui was also a little worried that her brother would not be able to control his strength and really beat Yi Zhonghai to death, so she could only persuade him:

"Brother, don't be impulsive. Let's see what he says first. If he's not satisfied, we'll report him to the police."

Today, Sha Zhu rarely listened to his sister and let Yi Zhonghai go, but he still looked angry.

Yi Zhonghai straightened his clothes, a gloomy look flashing in his eyes.

Even if everyone in the courtyard knew about this, he could still make sense of it. After all, He Daqing's letter was sent directly to him. As long as the other party didn't come back from Baoding to confront him in person, there was nothing to be afraid of.

But what Yi Zhonghai was most worried about was that the He family would report the matter to the police, because he himself was not sure whether his behavior violated the law.

After all, he had no intention of embezzling the money from the beginning to the end. He just wanted to better benefit Sha Zhu and destroy the relationship between Sha Zhu and He Daqing.

The ultimate goal is just to train Sha Zhu to be his backup for his old age.

Yi Zhonghai temporarily put aside his dislike for He Yushui and explained with some disdain: "I am a seventh-level worker, do I need to embezzle your ten yuan per month?

I've saved them all for you. Although the food coupons have all been exchanged for food to support you and the Jia family, I've converted them into cash for you to keep in mind.

I will give it to you when you get married, Shazhu, or I will give it to you as a dowry when you get married, Yushui."

Seeing Yi Zhonghai's righteous look, Sha Zhu's momentum weakened a little. He was a little skeptical that Yi Zhonghai was really just after money.

Although Yi Zhonghai is usually very frugal, he is not a greedy person. If there is something that can be settled with money, he is always very willing to do it.

Of course, most of the impressions here are illusions caused by spending money on the Jia family.

Seeing that he had calmed Sha Zhu down again, Yi Zhonghai took the opportunity to play the emotional card:

"I treat you as my own children. I have given you all my best efforts, but you came to my house without asking any questions. It really makes me feel disappointed!

"Okay, okay! I'll take out the money now, you can come in and see, I kept all that money separately, I didn't spend a cent, if I really had any bad intentions, how could I do this?"

After hearing this, Sha Zhu was actually moved, while He Yushui frowned. She subconsciously felt that this matter would not be that simple, but she couldn't figure out the logic behind it.

After all, apart from Cao Anping, no one would have thought that Yi Zhonghai's plan was so deep that he actually planned to train Sha Zhu as a spare tire for the elderly.

As everyone knows, Jia Dongxu is the legitimate sponsor for his retirement.
