Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

He Yuzhu felt a little ridiculous when he heard Yi Zhonghai's words implying him. This old scoundrel is always thinking about targeting him, so don't blame him for fighting back. He Yuzhu smiled first, then said with a grin, "Hey, Uncle Yi, are you talking about me? I just sent Jia Zhang to jail today, and you think it's wrong for me to send Jia Zhang to jail!"

Yi Zhonghai frowned. He felt that this idiot Zhu really didn't give him face. His face darkened, and he said without thinking, "We in our courtyard believe in respecting the old and loving the young. Although Jia Zhangshi did something wrong, she is still your elder. She is so old now, and you still want to send her to prison. Do you think you did the right thing?"

"Speaking of this, I have to say that what you did was absolutely wrong. What's the point of you writing a letter of apology? You asked Dongxu for 400 yuan for a letter of apology! Every household in our yard is a big family, and it is inevitable that family members will have conflicts. 400 yuan, He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu, you really hurt my heart."

Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath and pretended to be very sad and said, "Especially since you locked the door, do you know what you are doing? Locking the door means you are on guard against our neighbors. Do you think our neighbors are thieves?" It must be said that Yi Zhonghai's words are very likely to attract hatred. The other people in the courtyard looked at He Yuzhu with scrutiny.

Qin Huairu on the side became a little anxious. This old man was obviously trying to bully her husband! Her mind was working quickly, and she had to make this topic sound better. Treating these people in the yard as thieves, Yi Zhonghai's words were too vicious. Although he would not care about the people in the yard as long as he lived a good life with his man, if he offended everyone in the yard, then the couple would have a hard time in the future.

He Yuzhu was not panicked. He clapped his hands and said with a smile, "The uncle is indeed an uncle. His speech is very good. It made me, He Yuzhu, suddenly enlightened!" Hearing what He Yuzhu said, the people in the yard were stunned. They still wanted to hear He Yuzhu continue to contradict Yi Zhonghai? What's going on? Is he giving in?

Yi Zhonghai was very happy in his heart. Silly Zhu, Silly Zhu, this old ginger is still spicy. Yi Zhonghai was very proud in his heart and was ready to teach him a lesson and then continue to improve his prestige. But He Yuzhu's words made him feel like he was falling into an ice cave. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Well, uncle, you sign a contract for me that if anything in our house is stolen, you will compensate us in full."

Yi Zhonghai frowned, feeling very unhappy, and said, "No, why? Why should I compensate you if your things were stolen?" He Yuzhu smiled and said righteously, "It was you who said we can't lock the house. If we lock it, it will affect the evaluation of the excellent courtyard houses. I won't lock it now. If something is stolen, it is reasonable for me to hold you responsible."

He Yuzhu ignored Yi Zhonghai's ugly expression, but looked at the crowd watching the excitement on the side, and said with a smile, "Dear neighbors in the courtyard, since the manager of the courtyard doesn't allow us to hang padlocks, if it is stolen, someone has to be responsible. What do you think? I don't care. Anyway, I must let Uncle Yi sign a contract for us, otherwise, neighbors, I am really afraid that Jia Zhang will steal from our house again."

"We are lucky this time. The cabinet on the kang fell down and injured Jia Zhang's leg, so we caught her. If we hadn't locked the door and the house was stolen, if there was no evidence, we would have to blame ourselves. Our family is not that wealthy, so please write a written agreement!"

The neighbors around also started clamoring. Blacksmith Sun said in a hoarse voice, "Uncle Yi, you have to give me a written agreement. I think what Zhuzi said is very good. If you ask us not to lock the doors of each household, we will naturally agree. After all, it is for the excellent evaluation of the Siheyuan. But what Zhuzi said is also right. Jia Zhang and I have been neighbors for almost half my life. I naturally know what kind of person he is."

Sister Hua nodded. Although her family was not as rich as He Yuzhu's, she knew that a poor family was worth a fortune. She didn't want her family to become Jia Zhang's back garden, where they could come and go as they pleased and take whatever they wanted. If the old woman was at home every day and really stole something when no one was at home, she would definitely be heartbroken.

She then stood up and began to force the three managers above her. Seeing the indignation in the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai sighed and said, "Okay, shut up. If you don't agree with this matter, then lock the door of each household. But if it cannot be rated as an excellent courtyard, don't blame us three managers."

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly and was about to leave. He Yuzhu quickly stopped Yi Zhonghai and said, "Hey, wait a minute, everyone. Master Yi, what you said is a little wrong. The people in our yard didn't want to lock the door just now. As long as you three managers issue a contract to each of our households, stating that if anything is stolen, the three managers will compensate for it in full."

"If you really do this, I believe that the big guys in the yard will definitely not lock the door. Do you guys think it's right?" He Yuzhu's heart was really full of idiots! Listening to Yi Zhonghai's last sentence of moral kidnapping, he felt a little uncomfortable. He had to defeat Yi Zhonghai, otherwise he really thought that he, He Yuzhu, was easy to bully.

The smart people in the courtyard had just figured out Yi Zhonghai's last sentence. Wasn't this a threat? Xu Damao cheered from below, and said cheerfully, "I think what Zhuzi said is right. As long as the three gentlemen sign a written agreement, I believe that our courtyard will definitely listen to what the three stewards say and will not lock the door."

Blacksmith Sun nodded with a smile. If he could really sign such a document, he would be rich. He made a living by forging iron, and his family had a lot of iron ore. If he could sign a document, he could take the document to ask Yi Zhonghai for money every day. As for conscience, it was already very good to be alive in this era. Conscience, what the hell is that?
