~9 min read 1,630 words

"Jiecheng, here's another two cents. Go watch the entrance of the Rolling Mill. If Yi Zhonghai and the others come out, run back and tell me the first time," He Yuzhu said.

Yan Jiecheng took the money and ran to the entrance of the Rolling Mill, staring from afar.

He Yuzhu felt it still wasn't lively enough, so he went to the Eighty-seven Courtyard. Before entering the Siheyuan, He Yuzhu took out eight eggs from the Consciousness Space and entered the Eighty-seven Courtyard holding them.

"Zhuzi, you're here," Hu Shen discovered He Yuzhu first and immediately ran over with a flattering look.

"Hu Shen is here. Where is Huang Shen?" He Yuzhu asked.

"Zhuzi, no need to look for her. What's the matter? Auntie can handle it for you alone..." Hu Shen said immediately, her eyes staring tightly at the eggs in He Yuzhu's hands.

"Fox-sweeping, you shameless bitch, you dare to snatch the work from me? I'll beat you to death, you stinking bitch," before Hu Shen finished speaking, Huang Shen, who heard the voice, rushed out like a weasel, grabbed Hu Shen's hair, and roared while preparing to tear at her.

Hu Shen naturally didn't show weakness, and the two were about to fight.

"Stop! Stop your hands! Both of you go, two eggs each. After the matter is done, another two eggs each. If you don't stop, I'll find someone else," He Yuzhu shouted loudly.

Huang Shen and Hu Shen immediately stopped their hands. At the same time, their faces changed like Sichuan opera face-changing. Just a moment ago, they were in a life-and-death struggle, wishing they could kill each other, but instantly they became "sisters."

He Yuzhu rolled his eyes and casually handed the eggs to them.

"Same matter as last time, curse Jia Zhangshi. Don't take action if you can avoid it. Even if you take action, you must be in the right before taking action. Understand?" He Yuzhu said in a deep voice.

"Understand. Isn't it just disciplining that stinking bitch Jia Zhangshi? Don't worry, leave it to us sisters," Huang Shen said dismissively.

"Watch my eyes for a while. I'll let you go, then you go. If I don't let you move, don't move at all. Don't worry, whether you go or not, the remaining eggs will be given to you," He Yuzhu said.

"No problem!" the two said.

After the two put the eggs away at home, they followed He Yuzhu, full of spirit, toward the Ninety-five Courtyard.

On the way, He Yuzhu bumped into Daniu, Erhu, and the others who were leaving school.

"Sha Niu, come here. Do you want to eat candy? If you want to eat candy, call your little friends, just like last time, go to the Siheyuan and sing; Sha Hu, you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy candy." He Yuzhu didn't wait for Daniu to answer, but stuffed five cents into Erhu's hand.

Erhu took the money and ran straight to the supply and marketing cooperative. Daniu opened his mouth, wanting to tell

After Erhu bought the candy and ran back, Daniu also called the people over. He Yuzhu first distributed a piece of Cuban candy to each child, and Huang Shen and Hu Shen also received one each, then he led the crowd in a grand procession straight to the Siheyuan.

"Sha... Zhuzi, why are you bringing so many people to the Courtyard?" Yan Bugui, who was guarding the gate, saw He Yuzhu bringing so many people to the Courtyard, especially with those two great immortals, Aunt Huang and Aunt Hu, among the crowd, and Yan Bugui's legs went weak.

Yan Bugui had naturally heard of the great names of these two, and upon seeing them, Yan Bugui felt an instinctive dread in his heart.

"Jia Zhangshi is coming back," He Yuzhu said.

Yan Bugui looked at He Yuzhu, not understanding. So what if Jia Zhangshi comes back? What does that have to do with you bringing these people into the courtyard?

"Qin Huairu's mother not only took all of Jia Dongxu's pension to the countryside, but she also wants to take Jia Zhangshi's retirement money. Once Jia Zhangshi returns, it is bound to cause a scene. I'm afraid someone will bully me, so I invited Huang Shen and Hu Shen to protect me. After all, a grown man like me can't go around making things difficult for an old hag, right?" He Yuzhu sneered, baring his teeth.

Yan Bugui's eyes widened instantly, and he thought to himself, "This won't just be a scene, it's going to be a fight."

"By the way, I was the one who told Jia Zhangshi about Qin Huairu's mother taking the money, and I was also the one who asked Station Chief Zhang to release Jia Zhangshi," He Yuzhu said again.

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he ignored the stunned Yan Bugui and led everyone into the Siheyuan.

After He Yuzhu arrived home, he had Hu Shen and Huang Shen stand at his doorway like two great guardians, while Daniu, Erhu, and the other children were divided into two rows, extending from his doorway all the way to the Siheyuan gate, in a posture of warm welcome.

After He Yuzhu made the arrangements, he shouted loudly toward the direction of the Jia family: "Aunt Qin, I have handled the matter you asked me to call Qin Family Village about. I called early on, and I reckon it won't be long before Uncle Qin arrives at the courtyard."

"Thank you, Master He, what is the meaning of this formation you've set up?" Qin Mu asked after walking out of the room. "It's nothing, I just invited these children to sing some songs for everyone to liven things up," He Yuzhu said calmly.

Qin Mu looked at He Yuzhu suspiciously, instinctively having a bad premonition. However, as soon as Qin Mu thought that the head of her household was coming soon, she felt a sense of backbone and did not think too deeply about it.

Qin Mu was not in a hurry, and He Yuzhu did not argue, but Yan Bugui was anxious.

"It's ruined, it's ruined, something big is going to happen!" Yan Bugui couldn't help but feel anxious upon hearing this, inwardly hating He Yuzhu for watching the excitement without fearing that things wouldn't be big enough; not only did he not think about how to settle the matter, but he also wanted to escalate it.

Yan Bugui wanted to find Liu Haizhong to discuss it, but Liu Haizhong was not like Yan Bugui, who could leave early at any time; at this moment, Liu Haizhong was still at the factory.

Yi Zhonghai and the others were also not in the Siheyuan, and Yan Bugui didn't even have anyone to discuss it with, so he couldn't help but break into a sweat from anxiety.

Yan Bugui naturally knew what kind of character Jia Zhangshi had, and Qin Mu was not a kind soul either. Added to the instigation by He Yuzhu, the two were bound to fight.

It would be fine if nothing happened, but if someone was beaten to death, then the matter would be huge. If a real disaster occurred, his time as the Third Great Master would be over.

Yan Bugui suddenly discovered that he didn't even have anyone to discuss it with, and he couldn't help but feel as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"Jiekuang, hurry, go to the Rolling Mill and call your Second Great Uncle Liu Haizhong back. Tell him something big has happened in the courtyard," Yan Bugui said urgently.

"Two mao," Yan Jiekuang said gloomily, taking the opportunity to make a lion's share demand.

In Yan Jiekuang's view, asking for two mao to run to the Rolling Mill was a lion's share demand.

Yan Bugui thought so too.

"You little brat, you dare to ask me for money? Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and go!" Yan Bugui shouted sternly.

Yan Bugui would never give Yan Jiekuang money.

Seeing that he couldn't get the money, Yan Jiekuang ran out of the Siheyuan.

However, as soon as he left the Siheyuan, Yan Jiekuang slowed down. Running out of the Siheyuan was for Yan Bugui to see; now that Yan Bugui couldn't see him and wasn't giving him money, Yan Jiekuang naturally stopped running and walked slowly toward the Rolling Mill.

When Yan Jiekuang was about to reach the Rolling Mill, he saw his eldest brother Yan Jiecheng running toward him quickly.

"Eldest brother..." Yan Jiekuang had just opened his mouth when Yan Jiecheng ran past him, having no time at all to greet him.

Yan Jiekuang was dumbfounded. Before Yan Jiecheng could catch his breath, Yi Zhonghai and his party came out of the Rolling Mill, rushing toward the Siheyuan in a menacing manner.

"Yan Jiekuang, what are you doing here?" Yi Zhonghai asked with a frown.

"My dad asked me to find the Second Great Uncle, saying something big happened in the courtyard," Yan Jiekuang said.

Yi Zhonghai immediately understood what was about to happen in the courtyard.

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and felt that he still couldn't do without Liu Haizhong if there was trouble in the courtyard; if necessary, he could use Liu Haizhong as a blade, so he took out one mao and told Yan Jiekuang to hurry and find Liu Haizhong.

With the money, Yan Jiekuang became spirited and quickly went to find Liu Haizhong.

At the same time, Jia Zhangshi, who had come out of the police station, reached the entrance of the hutong where the Ninety-five Courtyard was located.

She is here, she is here, she is walking with a gait that recognizes no kin...
