I became a poor little sophora japonica in the courtyard

Today is Sunday again, and Yan Bugui got up early to go out. He and his fishing friends had already agreed to go to Shichahai to fish in the ice hole.

He was holding a fishing rod and a bucket, but he found that his bicycle, which he had parked under the porch at the door last night, was missing.

He turned back to the room and said to Third Aunt Yang Ruihua, "The wife of our eldest son is actually plotting against us. She wanted to borrow my bicycle last night but I refused, and she rode away without telling me this morning."

"No way? Maybe the second brother rode his bike to the countryside to exchange for food!" Yang Ruihua also guessed.

Uncle Yan Bugui said nothing, he just took his fishing rod and bucket and left. Shichahai wasn't far away anyway, it would only take about 20 minutes to get there.

As soon as he stepped out of the courtyard gate, he suddenly saw a bicycle lying in the corner of the courtyard gate from the peripheral vision of his glasses. The two wheels were gone, so why did it look like his own bicycle?

He quickly took two steps forward to check it out. It was nothing! Wasn't this his second-hand car?

He put down the bucket in his hand and quickly ran to the yard, shouting as he ran: "Everyone, come out and see! There's another thief in our courtyard! This time it's a big thief! He stole two wheels from my bicycle."

This time he was really panicking! Last time his bricks were stolen, although he felt pain for a long time, it didn't cost him any money, it was just a waste of effort.

But this time it was different! He had bought this second-hand car for 120 dollars. If he couldn't find the thief, he would have to spend money to buy two more wheels.

When the neighbors in the courtyard heard Yan Bugui's broken cry, they were all frightened and went out to check what was going on.

Yan Bugui led everyone to the corner of the courtyard gate, pointed at the bicycle without wheels, and began to accuse at the top of his voice.

"Uncle, did you make an enemy with someone? This doesn't look like something a thief would have done. If it was a thief, he would have ridden away with your car long ago. Who would have taken the trouble to remove your two wheels?"

A nosy neighbor was analyzing the situation. At this time, an old man named Yi Zhonghai also came over, looked at the scene, and asked about the situation. He had the same opinion: Old Yan had offended someone!

"I don't have any conflicts with anyone. No! I'm going to report it to the police this time. Stealing bicycle wheels is no small crime!"

Yan Bugui was not interested in fishing even though he had fish! He hurried to Beixinqiao Police Station.

"There's a commotion outside! What happened in the yard?"

When Jia Zhang saw Qin Huairu coming back from watching the fun, she asked her daughter-in-law curiously.

"The two wheels on the third uncle's bicycle in the front yard were dismantled last night! The third uncle went to the police station to report the case!" Qin Huairu replied.

Huaihua, who was still lying in bed, thought, "Isn't this plot going too fast? It's already the part where Shazhu steals the wheel of Uncle Sanda's car."

I have to speed up the process. The weather is getting colder and colder. When it snows, I won't be able to go out.

So she also started to get dressed and get up. Just hold on for a few more days! If you endure a little hardship now, life will be easier in the future.

Sha Zhu was also awakened by the noisy noises in the yard. He opened the door and yawned as he went to the public pool to wash. At this time, Auntie Chen Shufen saw him coming out of the room and told him that there was a thief in the yard last night.

"Isn't it just two car wheels that were stolen? That's no big deal." Sha leaned on his sleepy eyes and answered subconsciously.

The old lady stared at him in amazement, her lips trembling, and she was so scared that she couldn't say a word.

Just then, Uncle Yi Zhonghai returned to the east wing, and Aunt Yi quickly pulled him into the inner room. She lowered her voice and said to her husband, "I think Sha Zhu did this! Just now he opened the door and I told him that there was a thief in the yard last night. Do you know what he said? He said it was just two wheels? Old Yi, how did he know about the wheels when he just woke up?"

Yi Zhonghai had a serious look on his face! Stealing two wheels was a crime. If the police found out, Sha Zhu's life would be over.

Without saying a word, he went to Sha Zhu's main room, locked the door, and kicked Sha Zhu, who had a puzzled look on his face.

"You bastard! Do you know what you have done? Once people find out, no one can save you! You can only go to jail." Yi Zhonghai lowered his voice and shouted angrily.

"You can't blame me for this! It was Yan Laokou who tricked me. He used the pretense of introducing me to a girl to trick me into giving him something. He made me lose face in front of Teacher Ran! I have never suffered such a big loss since I was a child. It's still a light punishment to take down two wheels of his car!"

Sha Zhu was full of indignation! In his mind, if he suffered a loss, he should pay it back double.

He told the whole story and asked the old man to do him justice.

"Do you know that your behavior has violated the law? Yan Bugui has already reported the case. If it is found out that you did it, do you know how serious the consequences will be?"

Yi Zhonghai was furious when he saw that he still looked unconvinced. This silly Zhu was completely ignorant of the law!

"Where are the two wheels?" Yi Zhonghai asked helplessly.

"I threw it into the river!"

Yi Zhonghai pointed at him, too angry to speak. He stamped his feet and walked away.

No matter what, Sha Zhu was the person he had chosen to take care of in his old age, so he had to clean up Sha Zhu's mess.

Yi Zhonghai went home to get some money, and then walked out of the courtyard toward Beixinqiao. He went to the Beixinqiao car repair shop and bought two second-hand wheels for 40 yuan.

"Old Yan, come out and have a look. Is this the wheel from your car? I found it in the corner of the alley outside."

As soon as Yi Zhonghai entered the front yard, he started shouting. He wanted all the neighbors in the yard to hear that the wheel of the Third Uncle's car had been found!

"Oh! What a nice touch. This is exactly my wheel! Thank you, Lao Yi. Once I install the wheel, I will go to the police station to close the case."

The third uncle took the two wheels from Yi Zhonghai and smiled so hard that his gums were exposed.

"Okay! Try installing it yourself!" Yi Zhonghai waved at him, then went back to the central courtyard with his hands behind his back.

Yan Bugui watched him leave thoughtfully, then went back into the house carrying the two wheel wheels.

He came back from the police station after reporting the case. He sat down and thought about it calmly, and found that there was something fishy about this matter. He had no grudge against anyone, unless it was Sha Zhu.

I accepted the gift but didn't do anything, so Sha Zhu must have found out. According to his vengeful character, he was taking revenge on me.

This was really not a decent thing for him to do, and it was not in line with his image as a people's teacher. He was too embarrassed to tell anyone and was prepared to swallow this loss in silence.

But he never expected that Yi Zhonghai would help Sha Zhu to cover up his lie. His bicycle was a Fei Ge brand, and Yi Zhonghai took two Phoenix brand wheels.

The wheel models are universal! Since Yi Zhonghai chose to conceal it from Sha Zhu, he has no loss now. It must be that both parties kept it a secret and everyone kept it to themselves.

Yi Zhonghai returned to his east wing with his hands behind his back. Seeing that he had not been seen for the whole morning, an aunt started to ask him about it.

Yi Zhonghai told the whole thing to an old lady. The old lady complained that Yan Bugui was dishonest. How could he deceive people with other people's marriage?

"I say, Zhuzi is not young anymore! He will be 31 next year. There is no elder to take care of him. Since we have chosen him to take care of us in our old age, we should find him a marriage partner." Aunt Chen Shufen began to nag.

"What do you think of Qin Huairu from the Jia family?" After thinking it over again and again, Yi Zhonghai asked his wife Chen Shufen.

"Not so good! She has a mother-in-law above her and three underage children below her. How can such a pillar of the family withstand this? Look at her mother-in-law, Jia Zhang, who does nothing at the age of forty. She is idle and cunning all day long. If you marry her, you will be unlucky for eight lifetimes."

When the Jia family was mentioned, Auntie pouted and looked like she was not blessed enough to enjoy it. Zhuzi was going to take care of them in their old age, but if he married Qin Huairu, it was unclear who would take care of whom in the future.

"Master Liu from the Metalworking Workshop 1 has a daughter. She is only 26 years old this year, but she is already a fifth-level fitter. She is hardworking and has excellent character. Tomorrow, I will go and talk to Master Liu."

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but feel deflated when he thought of Jia Zhang. With that troublemaker at home, it would be hard to say who would support whom in the future.

Qin Huairu is good in everything else! She respects the elderly and raises children, and works hard without complaint. She is the best person for him to take care of in his old age.

Unfortunately, there is a wicked mother-in-law at home. Not only is she lazy and greedy, but she also spreads gossip everywhere. It is better to stay away from such people!
