She would buy a roast duck for the Deaf Old Lady tomorrow, and then she could obtain the will for the house.

However, the money to buy the roast duck had to come from Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu saw Qin Huairu and only then came back to his senses: "Sister Qin, do you have something to find me for?"

It was very obvious.

Sha Zhu's attitude toward Qin Huairu was not as warm as it had been before.

His mind was very chaotic right now.

Having seen the cloth bundle that the Deaf Old Lady had brought over, he felt that his entire worldview had shattered.

Because Qin Huairu was too happy, she did not notice it.

"Zhuzi, the Deaf Old Lady came to find me just now. She said she wants to eat roast duck tomorrow morning."

"As long as she eats the roast duck, she is willing to write the will and leave the house to you!"

Qin Huairu had specifically changed her wording.

Whether the house was left to Sha Zhu or to Bang Geng, it was all the same.

In this way, she could also make Sha Zhu even more devoted to her.

It could also ease his relationship with the Deaf Old Lady.

Sha Zhu was stunned.

He asked: "Did the Deaf Old Lady really say that?"

Qin Huairu nodded repeatedly: "Yes."

"I think the old lady has had a change of heart; in this courtyard, the person closest to her is still you."

"I bring her meals, that is also out of respect for you."

The words were spoken very beautifully.

Sha Zhu felt a bit dizzy, and his mind became even more chaotic.

Which one was the truth, after all?

Sha Zhu did not speak anymore.

Qin Huairu said directly: "Sha Zhu, tomorrow morning, go buy the roast duck for the old lady."

"When the time comes, we will send it over together; once the old lady is happy, she can write the will right then and there."

"Your current situation isn't great either; with the old lady's house, it will be easier for you to find a partner in the future."

Find a partner?

Sha Zhu was still feeling dizzy.

Today, Yi Zhonghai had sought him out for a talk, saying he wanted to introduce a partner to him.

But Sha Zhu couldn't feel happy at all right now.

He agreed in a daze, and then Qin Huairu left.

As long as the goal was achieved, there was no need to think about anything else.

The back courtyard.

When Liu Hai Zhong returned and saw the old lady's will, he was also overjoyed at the time.

"As expected of that old immortal, she's easy to fool with a few meals." Liu Hai Zhong hid the will away, intending to bring it out once the old lady died.

Yi Dama asked: "Then will we still send her good food in the future?"

Since the item had already been obtained, it would be better to just let her starve to death.

This way, they could get the house sooner and let Liu Guangqi move in to live there.

Liu Hai Zhong thought the same: "No need, just send a few potatoes will do."

Lu Jianye had also returned.

He was specifically carrying an old hen.

The people in the courtyard watched, and every single one of them was green with envy.

"Lu Jianye's wife is pregnant, so they've started nourishing her."

"No wonder we haven't seen Bai Lu Si all day; it turns out she's resting for the pregnancy."

"Bai Lu Si really married a good man; I've given birth to three children and never even eaten a meal of chicken."

Lu Jianye listened, the corners of his mouth curling upward.

In an era of material scarcity, pregnant women couldn't even eat a meal of chicken.

But that was not a problem for Lu Jianye.

He had plenty of things in his house.

Bai Lu Si was still studying, but she was studying parenting knowledge.

The young couple had finished their meal and were preparing to study together.

Just at this moment, the courtyard became lively.

"The Deaf Old Lady is inviting everyone to hold an assembly."

"It seems there is something like that to be announced, come quickly to watch the excitement."

"Come quickly, come quickly, if you come late, there won't be any excitement left."

Xu Damao started broadcasting.

Lu Jianye went out to take a look, and Bai Lu Si went too.

"Such an old witch is rare to see, I must broaden our child's horizons!"

Lu Jianye could not refuse her reason.

Very quickly.

The people in the courtyard had all gathered.

The Deaf Old Lady sat in the middle; this was the seat Liu Dama had prepared for her.

"Old Lady, what is it that you want to announce?" Liu Hai Zhong said this deliberately.

He thought the Deaf Old Lady was going to announce the will, and his whole person appeared particularly confident.

The Deaf Old Lady scanned the circle and discovered that everyone had arrived.

She looked toward Sha Zhu and said: "Sha Zhu, you went to inquire about it just now, right."

What?

Yi Zhonghai was the first to look at Sha Zhu.

What did Sha Zhu go to inquire about?

His right eyelid twitched even more violently.

Could it be...

Sha Zhu nodded, yet he did not speak.

Everything the Deaf Old Lady said was true; regarding the events of that year, Yi Zhonghai had started it, and only then did he find the Deaf Old Lady to be his scapegoat.

However.

Sha Zhu still would not forgive the Deaf Old Lady; no matter what, the two of them were in the same gang.

Everyone was very confused.

"Old Lady, what are you two talking about?"

"If this is still your family business, then we won't participate."

"Deaf Old Lady, if you have something to say, just say it directly."

Seeing everyone so curious, a strange smile appeared on the Deaf Old Lady's face.

Since she wasn't going to live much longer anyway, she might as well have a life-and-death struggle with Yi Zhonghai.

Lu Jianye looked at the Deaf Old Lady, then looked at Sha Zhu.

It seemed this old woman was about to stir up trouble.

Good, good, good!

Before dying, have a life-and-death showdown!

Deaf Old Lady, go for it!

Seeing that the atmosphere was just about right, the Deaf Old Lady finally said: "Today, I am going to expose Yi Zhonghai's true face."
