Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

Anyway, Mr. Yang Sanye and his group are about to leave, so there is no need to explain the specific relationship between them to Yi Zhonghai clearly.

However, Yi Zhonghai did not let go of this topic easily. He continued to ask:

"What kid? He looks like a bodyguard! And just now someone told me that this morning, they took away two unidentified strangers from the yard where you live. What's going on?"

"I don't know what happened. Two thieves suddenly broke into my house! But these two thieves were unlucky. They were caught by Xiaoyue's uncle."

As he was speaking, Xu Changping glanced at the corner of the wall next to him, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up before he continued with a relaxed look: "When he left, he helped send those two guys to the police station."

After hearing Xu Changping's explanation, Yi Zhonghai said with a serious face: "Humph, I will check what you said. If I find out that you lied or made some mess in this yard, don't blame me for being rude! I will keep a close eye on your every move!"

At this time, Yi Zhonghai had already regarded Xu Changping as a spy. He was thinking that he had to calm him down first and then go to the police station to report the case.

"Whatever you want." Faced with Yi Zhonghai's aggressive attitude, Xu Changping felt helpless and speechless.

He couldn't understand how someone of his age could show his thoughts on his face.

Xu Changping was too lazy to waste any more words with Yi Zhonghai and prepared to close the door, not wanting to bother with this troublesome old man anymore.

However, just as Xu Changping was about to close the door, a clear voice rang out: "Wait, Brother Xu!"

It turned out that Yang Xiaoyue was walking over. As soon as she left the house, she saw Yi Zhonghai standing there talking to Xu Changping. Considering that it might involve other people's privacy, Yang Xiaoyue was very tactful and did not immediately go forward to join in the fun.

But seeing that the conversation between the two of them had completely broken down, Xu Changping was about to close the door with a gloomy face. She then came out from the corner and hurriedly called out to him.

"Come in." Xu Changping glanced at Yang Xiaoyue, who had a flattering smile on her face, and said unhappily.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai, who tried to take the opportunity to follow him into the house, was ruthlessly rejected by Xu Changping.

He slammed the door hard, and it closed tightly with a loud bang, ruthlessly blocking Yi Zhonghai outside.

Yi Zhonghai opened his eyes wide, as if his eyeballs were about to pop out, and stared at the closed door with an angry face.

Unable to take the opportunity to follow in and investigate, he was so angry that his whole body was shaking and his lips quivered. After a long while, he squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "You brat!" Then he turned around angrily and hurriedly left the east wing.

Inside the room, Xu Changping, standing behind the door, listened quietly to the footsteps gradually fading away outside the door. Only after he was sure that Yi Zhonghai had left did he slowly walk to the sofa and slowly sit down.

Yang Xiaoyue had already sat on the sofa, holding the tea that Xu Changping had prepared for her. She took a sip, then raised her head and asked curiously with a smile, "What happened? Why would an old man be so angry for no reason?"

Xu Changping picked up the somewhat cold tea, took a sip and said unhappily, "It's because he came to ask about your third uncle. I have explained everything I should have explained, but he just didn't believe it and kept pestering me. He is such an unreasonable old man."

It's just inconvenient to live in a courtyard. If he lived alone, how could there be so many troubles? It's a pity that the system doesn't allow him to leave the courtyard. Thinking of this, Xu Changping couldn't help feeling depressed.

"Well, now that it's been explained clearly, let's leave it at that! After all, the uncle might also be worried that some malicious people will sneak into the yard and bring potential threats and harm to other residents."

Although she felt that Yi Zhonghai was sometimes a little too nosy, the kind-hearted and considerate Yang Xiaoyue still chose to stand in his shoes to understand and sympathize with his behavior.

"Okay, let's not mention him anymore. I should go to the factory to work in a while." Xu Changping leaned back leisurely, leaning lazily on the soft sofa, and said this casually.

Yang Xiaoyue looked at the leisurely man in front of her with a smile, and suddenly changed the subject: "By the way, guess how much money did my third uncle give me?"

Hearing this, Xu Changping raised his head slightly and glanced at Yang Xiaoyue with a hint of joking: "I can't guess, but if the amount is too small, I can accompany you to find him and get the jade pendant back."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaoyue's smile became even brighter. She waved the passbook in her hand and said with a sweet smile, "Hehehe, a full ten thousand yuan!"

However, facing such a huge sum of money, Xu Changping seemed unusually calm, and he didn't even raise his eyelids. He just said slowly and calmly:

"Well, it's not bad. After all, you gave up the treasure without hesitation. If he didn't give more money as compensation, it would be really heartless."

"It's a lot. Don't you know what the situation is with that jade pendant?" Yang Xiaoyue frowned slightly, glared at Xu Changping with her bright eyes like autumn water, and said unhappily.

In the face of Yang Xiaoyue's anger, Xu Changping didn't care. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

He leaned back on the sofa and said casually, "Don't underestimate that jade pendant. There is a secret hidden inside it. The treasure map that your uncle and his friends are looking for is inside it."

Xu Changping's sudden words were like a thunderclap in Yang Xiaoyue's ears.

She had been calm and composed, but now she suddenly raised her head with a look of astonishment on her face, and cried out in surprise, "What!"

No one would complain about having too much wealth. Although Yang Xiaoyue seemed quite calm and composed about the treasure before, when she really learned that the jade pendant in her hand was actually related to the treasure map, her calm heart began to beat violently.

"You can try it later. Just hold the jade pendant under the sun and carefully observe the shadow cast on the ground. You will naturally understand the mystery."

Xu Changping became more and more excited as he spoke, and his body, which had been lazily leaning in the chair, unconsciously sat up straight.
