Chapter 402: Been Targeted
Hearing Yan Bu Gui's words, Shazhu smiled and said:
Can't.
I especially welcome you to watch TV at our home.
Watching TV at our place saves you on your electricity bill.
Everyone laughed when they heard that.
Yan Bu Gui got angry, stood up, and spat out two words: "Get lost!"
Then.
With his hands behind his back, he walked out.
San Da Ma glanced at Yan Bu Gui's back, stood up, and looked at Shazhu, saying:
Then I'm leaving too.
Shazhu, I'm telling you, don't mess with your Third Uncle and Third Aunt from now on, got it?
Shazhu grinned and said, "I'm just joking with him, just joking."
Don't pretend you don't get the joke.
After Yan Bu Gui and San Da Ma left, Shazhu waved at Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai and whispered:
Eldest Uncle, Second Elder, you two.
Recently, help me keep an eye on Third Uncle.
I'm going to take action against Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang.
Hearing that, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong furrowed their brows.
Liu Haizhong whispered to Yi Zhonghai:
The way Shazhu put it makes it sound like there's really something going on.
Yi Zhonghai furrowed his brows even tighter, thought for a moment, looked at Shazhu, and asked:
What's going on?
Be more specific.
Shazhu thought for a moment and said, "Well, I've only heard rumors."
I can't say anything either.
I've thought it over; I need you two to see it yourselves before you'll believe.
This time, if I don't straighten out Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang so they call me dad, then I'm not me.
Saying this, he raised a thumb.
Yi Zhonghai's brows furrowed again.
Shazhu: "I didn't say anything about Eldest Uncle."
I, I'm not someone whose word counts in this courtyard.
Liu Haizhong: "Then, what do you mean?"
The more I listen, the more confused I get.
Shazhu laughed and said, "So you just can't be a leader."
Like this, you and Eldest Uncle, starting tomorrow, follow Third Uncle and see what he's up to.
Yi Zhonghai: "I get it, you suspect Old Yan hasn't been up to any good?"
Shazhu: "You can't put it that way."
Anyway, just help me keep an eye on him a bit.
The next day.
Yan Bu Gui went out.
He was very careful.
But Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong tailed him secretly, and he didn't notice.
When they saw Yan Bu Gui enter a dead-end alley.
Liu Haizhong whispered, "He didn't just go into a dead-end alley, did he?"
What is he trying to do?
What should we do now?
Yi Zhonghai: "Shh, keep it down."
We don't need to follow him in.
We'll just wait here for him.
Liu Haizhong nodded, and he and Yi Zhonghai hid to the side.
Soon after, Yan Bu Gui changed into some dirty, tattered clothes, came out, and was holding a big bag.
They didn't make a sound; after Yan Bu Gui walked far away, they then came out.
Yi Zhonghai: "Looks like what Zhuzi said is this place."
Liu Haizhong looked around, nodded, and said, "I know what he's up to."
Come on, let's go check it out.
Yi Zhonghai: "Right, let's follow and take a look."
Walking onto the main street, when they saw Yan Bu Gui rummaging through a trash bin for garbage, Liu Haizhong grabbed Yi Zhonghai and said indignantly:
Do we even need to look?
His behavior alone is enough for Shazhu to teach his kids a lesson.
Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the hutong, to his nest."
Liu Haizhong nodded and said, "Right, let's go destroy his hideout."
After more than half an hour.
Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong sat in Yan Bu Gui's hideout, sighing heavily.
After a while.
Yi Zhonghai stood up and said, "Let me say this about the matter."
"We can't let Zhuzi offend people all by himself."
"How about this: let's just join forces and take care of this old Yan."
Liu Haizhong let out a long sigh and said, "You say I've lived over eighty years."
"Now I finally understand."
"Lately, me and my old spouse keep bringing up this Shazhu."
"You say this Shazhu, he's not just sharp-tongued but soft-hearted."
"His kindness is something others find hard to achieve."
"His personality—just spend money if you have it."
"Right?"
"Anyway, spending money never hurts."
"His kindness is the same as Qin Huairu's kindness."
"Old Yi, running into those two is our good fortune."
Yi Zhonghai smiled and said nothing.
He did not agree with Liu Haizhong's words.
Of course.
He also thought Shazhu was kind, but Qin Huairu not necessarily.
Liu Haizhong continued, "We, we didn't understand at first, Old Yi, you, you must have figured it out long ago, right?"
"Old Yi, he, when they were young you already saw it clearly, right?"
Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "If you want to scold me, just say it straight."
Liu Haizhong: "Me, how am I scolding you?"
"Yes, it's me and Old Yan; our positions are different from yours."
"You say you have no sons or daughters, huh."
"Right, you, you must have already planned how to support yourself in old age."
Yi Zhonghai: "You say that, I can actually admit it."
"There's nothing wrong with admitting that."
"You say over these years, Zhuzi's conduct toward the Deaf Old Lady—I've long seen what kind of person he is."
"If it weren't for Shengli suddenly appearing, I really would have wanted Zhuzi to support me in my old age."
Liu Haizhong: "Yeah, you're all set now."
"You've got such a promising nephew."
"Sigh, me and Old Yan, we have so many children, yet they're useless."
Yi Zhonghai: "Forget it, let's not talk about that."
"I'm just asking you, do you agree or not?"
Liu Haizhong stood up and said, "I agree."
"We can't let Shazhu alone do the offending."
"I'll handle this myself."
Yi Zhonghai: "No."
"Or else, let's both do it together."
Liu Haizhong nodded and said, "Let's go now, we'll make a phone call and summon that old Yan's son."
Saying this, he pointed at the junk and continued:
"Let him take a good look, really embarrass him."
Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "Right, that's what we should do."
Just as the two were about to leave, Yan Bu Gui walked in carrying a bag of junk.
Upon seeing them, Yan Bu Gui couldn't help but stare, then turned around intending to leave.
But in the end, he still didn't step out.
After thinking, he slowly turned his body around and smiled at Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong.
Liu Haizhong gave a cold snort and said, "You, you still have the face to laugh?"
"Are you embarrassing yourself or not?"
Yan Bu Gui's smile froze, and he said, "Not embarrassing."
"Not at all embarrassing."
"What's there to be embarrassed about?"
"I don't steal or rob, what's there to be embarrassed about, you tell me?"
