The Beginning of Siheyuan Blackmailing Yi Zhonghai

However, the matter still needs to be investigated further.

Just as the old policeman was about to speak, the young policeman ran over excitedly with two pairs of trousers.

"Master, the pants were thrown behind the wall. They are all here."

"Well, put them on quickly and take them back to the station to record their statements. I'll go find Wang Tiedan."

"Okay, Master."

Yi Zhonghai was a little reluctant, but there was really nothing he could do now.

……

The Siheyuan was about to explode at this time.

Even though it is in the old city, many families still stick to the old tradition and only eat two meals a day, breakfast and lunch, and skip dinner or just have a small meal to fill up.

Hunger can make the sense of smell extremely sensitive, not to mention the strong smell of chicken soup.

How can I sleep like this?

Many families in the yard have come to the window with bowls in their hands, breathing in the air to their heart's content while waiting quietly.

In this situation, the Jia family usually acts as the vanguard, with Bang Geng blowing the whistle, Qin Huairu taking action, and Jia Zhang waving the flag. If the food is not given, Yi Zhonghai will take over, and after a lecture, at least one family from the Jia family and the deaf old lady will get a bowl.

After that, everyone rushed in.

Depending on how much chicken soup is left, one bowl is never too much, and half a bowl is never too little, you can always have a bite.

Sure enough, after a while, Banggeng's crying and wailing were heard in the middle courtyard.

"Grandma, I want to drink chicken soup and eat chicken! Mom, go get it for me quickly. I don't care. I want to eat it. I want to eat it."

Then it was Jia Zhang's turn to show off her evil mother-in-law. If you don't give it to me, don't blame me for coming to your house and scolding you.

"Qin Huairu, look who has no sense of public morality, making chicken soup in the middle of the night and not letting people sleep. Go get a bowl for my grandson, go quickly!"

"Mom, life is not easy for everyone. It's so late now, why don't we just forget it."

Qin Huairu picked up the bowl and stood at the door, refusing out of habit.

This is called setting up a persona. I didn't want to go there, but I had no choice but to go because my mother-in-law and children were making a fuss at home.

"Just go when I tell you to. Why are you wasting your time? What's wrong with asking for food for the child? How can you be a mother? You don't care when the child is so hungry. Do you want to starve us to death and remarry yourself?"

"Mom, please stop talking. I'll go. Isn't it okay for me to go?"

After the performance, Qin Huairu hurried out of the door. She looked around first and then walked decisively towards the backyard.

The closer you get to the Moon Gate, the stronger the smell of chicken becomes.

Just after passing the window of Wang Tiedan's house, I was sure that the smell was coming from the house of the little man in the yard.

I pushed the door slightly and it opened automatically.

The fire flickered under the stove, but no one was in the room.

No matter how greedy Qin Huairu was, she could not go into the house to get it. That would be called stealing, and the nature of the matter would change.

"Brother Tiedan, Brother Tiedan, are you there?"

At this time, Wang Tiedan was at Grandma Yang's house. He also heard the noise and deliberately did not go out.

"Brother Tiedan, someone is calling you outside." Dazhuang said while gnawing on the chicken skin. Now only the chicken skin is cooked, and the rest still needs to be cooked.

"I understand." Wang Tiedan rubbed Dazhuang and Erzhuang's heads, then walked out with a bowl.

Qin Huairu was still deliberately stretching her neck to look into the room, as if she didn't know.

"Brother Tiedan, Brother Tiedan, are you there?"

"Hey, sister-in-law of the Jia family, what do you want to talk to me about?" Wang Tiedan walked up and asked deliberately.

Qin Huairu pretended to be startled.

"Brother Tiedan, you are not at home. I thought you were asleep."

"Oh, I sent a bowl of chicken soup to Grandma Yang's house." Wang Tiedan didn't reveal it.

Qin Huairu was delighted. It seemed that if she came today, it would be unreasonable to give it to Grandma Yang's family but not to herself.

"Brother Tiedan, my child is crying because of your chicken soup. Can you give me a bowl of it, too? Just a small bowl will do."

"That's not right, Jia's sister-in-law, aren't you celebrating Banggeng's birthday tonight? I smell spicy chicken and twice-cooked pork. Your family can also do well with these, right?"

Qin Huairu didn't blush either.

"Brother Tiedan, I won't hide it from you. It was just two taels of meat and a chicken drumstick. It was bought by an old man out of pity for our family. You also know our situation. There are many people and children in our family. Even the old man and Shazhu couldn't even take a bite each. I just tried it for the taste."

No matter how much meat there is, no one will know anyway.

Wang Tiedan didn't dwell on this matter. He knew exactly what kind of people this family was.

"Okay, then I'll serve you a bowl. However, the chicken is not cooked yet and needs to be cooked further. I can only serve you some soup."

As he said this, he was about to take the bowl from Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu was not willing to miss the opportunity to eat chicken and quickly took the bowl back.

"Then I'll wait a little longer. It's a good opportunity to chat with Brother Tiedan."

Wang Tiedan almost laughed out loud and continued chatting. Since he entered this courtyard, which was almost four years ago, he had spoken no more than ten times.

Sometimes, when Qin Huairu was washing clothes, she would deliberately turn her head away when she saw him coming.

The number of words I said today is more than all the words I said before combined.

"Well, I'll add some more firewood. It will only take five or six minutes."

"Brother Tiedan, I haven't seen you for several days. What have you been doing recently?" Qin Huairu asked for the sake of conversation.

"I got sick and had no money to treat my illness, so I went out of town to look for herbs myself."

"Brother Tiedan is really capable. He can even treat illnesses."

"There's nothing I can do about it. If I ask you to lend me money, you have to give it to me."

Qin Huairu was choked. She knew that Wang Tiedan had gone to the Jia family before to borrow money and grain, but he was not even allowed to enter and was scolded by Jia Zhang. Since then, he never came again.

"That's because I'm not at home. If we were well-off, we would definitely lend it to you."

"Okay, then I'll thank Sister-in-law Jia first."

The two chatted intermittently and five minutes passed quickly.

Wang Tiedan was not stingy and served Qin Huairu a bowl of rice with meat.

"Sister-in-law Jia, it's dark and I can't see. Just take whatever you can get. Please don't be disgusted."

"No, no, thank you, Brother Tiedan." Qin Huairu took the bowl and saw the protruding bone. Her face was full of joy. She was about to leave when Wang Tiedan added another sentence from behind.

"Sister-in-law Jia, I have never eaten chicken before. I just rinsed it once, so it may not be cleaned very well. Please don't mind."

"It's okay, it's okay. It's good to have some meat at this time. Brother Tiedan, you are busy, I will go back first."

At this time, Qin Huairu had already seen Yan Bugui coming over with his second son.

Yan Bugui glanced at Qin Huairu's three bowls. No, they were not big; no, they were not white; their bones were all showing. He simply greeted her and hurried to Wang Tiedan's door.

"Tiedan, why bother stewing a chicken? Just ask your third aunt to make it for you. I guarantee it will be done cleanly. It won't be that troublesome." Yan Bugui meant something, but few people dared to go to his house to ask for food.

"Uncle, you came at the right time. Could you please help me taste the chicken soup and see how it is cooked?"

Wang Tiedan didn't want to waste his time. He was very hungry and had to finish the pot of soup quickly so that he could go eat.
