Siheyuan: Starting from the Old Society

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai hurried forward to stop Xu Damao. If Xu Damao was allowed to rush into Sha Zhu's house, wouldn't he blow the roof off?

"Uncle, please don't stop me. I have to teach this bastard a lesson today!"

Xu Damao was held tightly by Yi Zhonghai. He struggled, but his eyes were fixed on Sha Zhu's house. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sha Zhu, you are such a heartless guy. I was really blind to treat you as a brother!"

"Xu Damao, stop spitting bloody words at me!"

When Sha Zhu heard the noise, he also came out of the house. He was already furious because of reporting Qin Huairu. Now seeing Xu Damao's cannibalistic look, he was immediately furious. "I've always been upright. When have I ever let you down?"

"You still dare to say that you haven't done me any wrong?! You......"

Xu Damao was about to speak when he was glared back at by Yi Zhonghai.

"Xu Damao, if you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being rude!"

Yi Zhonghai's voice was low but full of majesty, which made Xu Damao shiver.

Although Xu Damao was usually arrogant and domineering, he was still a little scared in front of Yi Zhonghai. He could only glare at Sha Zhu hatefully, then shook off Yi Zhonghai's hand, turned around and went back home, closing the door with a bang.

"Silly Zhu, what on earth is going on? Why would you report Qin Huairu?"

Yi Zhonghai pulled Sha Zhu aside and asked in a low voice. He had a feeling that this matter might not be simple.

Sha Zhu hesitated for a moment, but finally sighed and told Yi Zhonghai the whole story.

It turned out that night, when Sha Zhu was passing by the cafeteria on his way home from get off work, he happened to see Qin Huairu sneaking out with a bulging bag in her hand.

Sha Zhu felt strange at the time. How could Qin Huairu, a widow, go to the cafeteria? And even take something out?

Out of curiosity, he secretly followed her, wanting to see what Qin Huairu was doing.

As a result, Sha Zhu followed Qin Huairu all the way to a remote corner and saw with his own eyes Qin Huairu take out a bag of flour from the bag and then hand it to another man!

Sha Zhu was stunned. He never thought that Qin Huairu would secretly meet with another man behind his back and even steal things from the factory to give to this strange man!

Anger, disappointment, sadness...all kinds of emotions intertwined together, making Shazhu almost lose his mind.

He rushed forward, grabbed the man by the collar, and roared, "Who are you? What is your relationship with Qin Huairu?!"

The man was obviously frightened by the sudden appearance of Sha Zhu. He explained in a panic: "I... I am Qin Huairu's distant cousin. I came to the city to find a job, and Qin Huairu kindly took me in..."

"Take you in? If I take you in, I'll use the things in the factory to entertain you?!"

Sha Zhu didn't believe the man's lies at all. He pushed the man to the ground, then turned around angrily to settle the score with Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu listened to Sha Zhu's questioning, but there was no panic on her face. Instead, she sneered: "Sha Zhu, what do you mean by this? When did I have a secret meeting with another man? Don't slander me!"

"I'm slandering you? I saw with my own eyes that you handed a bag of flour to him, and you still want to deny it?!" Sha Zhu pointed at the man and said angrily.

"Shazhu, don't talk nonsense! He is my distant cousin. He came to the city to find a job and was penniless. I felt sorry for him, so I gave him some flour. How could you..." When Qin Huairu said this, her eyes turned red and tears fell down, looking like she had suffered a great injustice.

Sha Zhu was stunned. He looked at Qin Huairu who was crying and felt a little overwhelmed for a moment. Could it be that he really misunderstood Qin Huairu?

Yi Zhonghai saw that Sha Zhu's expression had relaxed a little, so he quickly struck while the iron was hot and said, "Sha Zhu, I believe Huai Ru is not that kind of person. There must be some misunderstanding here. Calm down first and don't be impulsive."

Sha Zhu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Okay, Qin Huairu, I will believe you again. You said he is your cousin, so what's his name? Where is he from? How long has he been in the city? You should know all this, right?" Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu and asked word by word.

Qin Huairu's eyes flickered when she heard this, and she hesitantly said, "He...his name is Jia Hao, he is my third aunt's cousin, he came from the countryside and came to the city...a while ago."

"How long has it been? Be more specific!" Sha Zhu pressed on step by step, not giving Qin Huairu any chance to breathe.

"I...I..." Qin Huairu was speechless after being questioned by Sha Zhu, and a layer of fine beads of sweat oozed out of her forehead.

"What? You can't tell it?" Sha Zhu sneered, "Qin Huairu, how long are you going to lie?!"

"I didn't lie! He is really my cousin!" Qin Huairu saw that she couldn't hide it anymore, so she just gave up and shouted loudly.

"Haha, cousin? I think it's your wild man!" Jia Hao, who had been hiding behind Qin Huairu, suddenly spoke.

Qin Huairu's face changed drastically. She turned her head and looked at Jia Hao, shouting angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"I'm talking nonsense? Qin Huairu, don't think I don't know what's in your mind! You just covet my money and want me to be your long-term meal ticket, so you deliberately made up the lie about being your cousin to deceive that idiot Sha Zhu!" Jia Hao said with a sneer, looking at Sha Zhu with eyes full of contempt and ridicule.

"You..." Qin Huairu was so angry that she was shaking all over, but she was unable to refute.

When Sha Zhu heard Jia Hao's words, he was struck by lightning and froze in his place. He never thought that Qin Huairu, whom he had always treated sincerely, would be such a fickle woman!

He just felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if he was stabbed hard, and the pain was so severe that he could hardly breathe.

"Qin Huairu, do you have anything else to say?!" Sha Zhu's eyes were red. He stared at Qin Huairu and asked word by word.

Qin Huairu saw that the truth was revealed, so she simply stopped pretending. She pushed Sha Zhu away and said with a sneer, "Yes, what Jia Hao said is true. I just like his money, so what? You, Sha Zhu, are just a poor cook. With that little salary every month, you can't even support yourself, let alone me and my three children. If I follow you, I will never be able to turn things around in this life!"

"You..." Sha Zhu was deeply hurt by Qin Huairu's words. He never thought that Qin Huairu, who had always been kind and pitiful in his heart, would actually say such heartless words.

"Qin Huairu, you stinky bitch, I must be blind to fall for you!" Sha Zhu roared, rushed forward and grabbed Qin Huairu's neck...

Qin Huairu was startled by Sha Zhu's roar. She turned around and saw Sha Zhu with his eyes wide open and his "cousin" lying on the ground with a panicked look on his face. She immediately realized that she was exposed.

"Shazhu, you...why are you here?" Qin Huairu pretended to be calm, but there was a hint of panic in her eyes.

"I was just about to ask you something! Qin Huairu, I treat you as a brother, and this is how you treat me?!" Sha Zhu pointed at the man on the ground and shouted, "Who is he?! Tell me!"

"He...he is really my cousin..."

"Cousin? Cousin needs you to entertain him with things from the factory?!" Sha Zhu grabbed Qin Huairu's arm and said angrily, "Qin Huairu, are you taking me for a fool?!"

"Sha Zhu, let go! You're hurting me!" Qin Huairu struggled, but Sha Zhu's hand was like an iron clamp, preventing her from moving.

"I have to teach you a lesson today!"

As Sha Zhu said this, he raised his hand and was about to hit him.

"stop!"

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded.

Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu were both stunned. They looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man standing not far away, looking at them coldly.

This young man was none other than the time traveler Lin Feng who had just moved into the courtyard.

Lin Feng was reading a book at home when he was disturbed by the noise from Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu outside. He didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but when he heard that Sha Zhu was going to hit Qin Huairu, he couldn't help but stand up.

It’s not that he has a strong sense of justice, but he really can’t stand the behavior of a coward like Sha Zhu.

"Who are you? You don't need to care about what happens in our hospital!"

When Sha Zhu saw Lin Feng, he immediately got angry. He was already very angry, and now someone meddled in his affairs, which made him even more annoyed.

"That's right, who do you think you are? Why do you think you can care about our family's affairs?!" Qin Huairu also shouted.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I can't just watch you bully a woman." Lin Feng said lightly, with a hint of unquestionable majesty in his tone.

"Bullying a woman? Which eye of yours saw me bullying a woman?" Sha Zhu said with his neck stiff, "I'm teaching my sister a lesson, what does it have to do with you?!"

"Sister? You call a man who steals men your sister?" Lin Feng sneered, "Silly Zhu, I think you are really stupid. You were sold and still help others count the money!"

"you......"

Sha Zhu was choked by Lin Feng's words and was speechless. He pointed at Lin Feng and kept saying "you" for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

"What do you mean?! What's the matter? Are you angry because I said it right?" Lin Feng pressed on, his tone full of sarcasm, "Silly Zhu, I'm telling you, people like you deserve to be cheated and bullied!"

"you you......"

Sha Zhu was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Lin Feng and said "you" for a long time. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something. He pointed at Lin Feng's nose and cursed, "I know! You must have also taken a fancy to Qin Huairu, so you deliberately stir up trouble here, wanting me and Qin Huairu to become enemies, so that you can take advantage of the situation, right?!"

“Silly Zhu, stop spitting blood at me!” Qin Huairu also pointed at Lin Feng and said loudly, “How long have I known you? How could I possibly like you?!”
