~8 min read 1,413 words

Red Star Courtyard

The Eldest Aunt grabbed Sha Zhuzhu's arm and asked anxiously: "Zhuzi, what's going on? Why doesn't Xu Damao manage your Eldest Uncle anymore? He said it's because you didn't keep your promise. What's going on? Zhuzi, hurry and say it."

The Deaf Old Lady frowned: "Good grandson, tell the truth, what is it because of?"

Sha Zhuzhu said with a stutter: "Old Lady, Eldest Aunt, it's Xu Damao who is looking for trouble himself. He just wants to take money and not do things, so he used me as an excuse. This matter has nothing to do with me."

The Eldest Aunt shed tears, grabbed Sha Zhuzhu's arm tightly and said anxiously: "Zhuzi! You! You! This relates to your Eldest Uncle's life! You can't be stupid! Tell me the truth, what happened? Tell me, so we can think of a way to solve it."

Sha Zhuzhu said depressedly: "I caught Xu Damao messing around with Widow Liu. He was afraid I would poke it out, so he gave me one thousand yuan hush money. Then today he looked for trouble in the toilet, I fought with him. After the leader arrived, I reported him..."

"Confused! Confused! Zhuzi, how could you do this!"

The Deaf Old Lady knocked on the table with her crutch: "Zhuzi! No matter what! You can't be untrustworthy! Since you took Xu Damao's hush money, you can't talk about the matter outside. Otherwise, don't take the money. If you take the money, you have to keep your promise. This is the bottom line of being a person. No wonder Xu Damao is so righteous, it turns out the root is here! You took the money and didn't do things, he followed your example, and in the end, we are the ones who suffer!"

The Eldest Aunt begged with tears streaming down her face: "Zhuzi! Zhuzi! I beg you! Return the money to Xu Damao! Go and apologize to him! Let him save your Eldest Uncle! I can't live without your Eldest Uncle!"

Sha Zhuzhu said resentfully: "I won't go, I don't want to bow to Xu Damao."

The Eldest Aunt knelt down with a thud, begging bitterly with tears: "Zhuzi, I knelt down to you. I know this makes you suffer, but your Eldest Uncle must be saved. If your Eldest Uncle is gone, I don't want to live alone either."

The Deaf Old Lady beat Sha Zhuzhu's back with her crutch: "Zhuzi, how could you be so mixed up! You want to kill your Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt! You can't be so heartless! Go! Go and return the money now! If Xu Damao doesn't save your Eldest Uncle, then I and your Eldest Aunt will die in front of you!"

Sha Zhuzhu's eye sockets turned red, and he was as aggrieved as a child: "Old Lady! Eldest Aunt! Why are you all forcing me! You want me to bow to Xu Damao, that's better than killing me!"

The Deaf Old Lady said angrily: "Zhuzi! A great man can bend and stretch, what's wrong with bowing your head? Besides, your Eldest Uncle has worried and worked hard for you before. When you made a mistake, he risked his old face to beg people everywhere, and he didn't bow to Cao Weiguo and Xu Damao less. Why? Now that your Eldest Uncle is in trouble, you don't care because of face? Zhuzi! If you are like this, then this old lady is blind and looked at the wrong person. You are a heartless white-eyed wolf."

The Eldest Aunt grabbed Sha Zhuzhu's hand and begged: "Zhuzi! Eldest Aunt begs you! Save your Eldest Uncle!"

Facing the coercion of the Deaf Old Lady and the Eldest Aunt, Sha Zhuzhu had no way out even if he had an iron heart.

He didn't want to bow his head, and he was even more reluctant to part with that one thousand yuan.

He originally wanted to use this one thousand yuan to buy a house, and use this one thousand yuan to marry Qin Huairu.

Now it's all gone!

Sha Zhuzhu said with tears in his eyes: "I'll go! I'll go, okay! No one cares about me, no one cares about me!"

The Deaf Old Lady was trembling with anger, and the Eldest Aunt was streaming with tears.

In the end, Sha Zhuzhu couldn't resist, took the money and found Xu Damao.

Xu Damao sneered with alcohol: "Sha Zhuzhu! Aren't you tough! Didn't you not return the money? How about it? Now you know who is the real Grandpa! Why do you fight with me, a fool!"

Sha Zhuzhu smashed the envelope on Xu Damao: "Xu Damao! This time you are powerful! I admit I lost faith first, I return this hush money in full, but if you dare to take the money and not do things, if Eldest Uncle doesn't come back, don't blame me for fighting you to the death. Anyway, I, Sha Zhuzhu, have a rotten life. If you force me, I'll die with you."

Xu Damao caught the envelope, opened it and looked at the big unity inside, and sneered with a vicious face: "Sha Zhuzhu, what kind of thing are you? You are a fool, a stinking thing on the street, what qualifications do you have to die with me? I tell you, you ruined my future, this matter is not finished. I will manage Yi Zhonghai's matter, but you won't have a good time in the future. I will definitely make you live worse than death and regret it."

Sha Zhuzhu clenched his fists quietly, wishing he could punch Xu Damao's dog head.

But under the eaves, one has to bow one's head!

Now the Deaf Old Lady and the Eldest Aunt are both concerned about the Eldest Uncle, looking forward to Xu Damao fishing the Eldest Uncle out. Even if he hates Xu Damao again, he can only endure this anger.

"Xu Damao, don't be proud too early. I, He Yuzhu, am not someone you can manipulate? If you want to take revenge on me, just come, if I, He Yuzhu, am afraid of you, I'll count you as born!"

Sha Zhuzhu left a harsh word and turned away gloomily.

Xu Damao put the envelope into his arms, sneered and spat on the ground: "Pah! Dog thing! Still playing tough with me! Let's wait and see! I'll crush you like crushing an ant!"

Asking for the hush money back was just a small relief. Next, he wanted to launch a crazy revenge on Sha Zhuzhu.

The old saying is good, money can make ghosts push the mill!

After eating and drinking with Cao Weiguo and others in the room, Xu Damao first went to the bathhouse to take a bath, removing the bad luck and alcohol from his body, and then rode his bicycle to Director Deng's residence.

First, he wanted to ask Director Deng to plead for mercy and strive to reduce the punishment.

Second, he wanted to inquire about Yi Zhonghai's matter and use Yi Zhonghai's matter to take revenge on Sha Zhuzhu.

Director Deng took the benefits and was quite kind to Xu Damao, saying that Xu Damao's matter was not big or small, and he would help mediate in a while, which would not affect his future.

As for Yi Zhonghai's matter, because of "insufficient evidence," and Yi Zhonghai refused to admit that he had a relationship with that side, refused to admit that those things were his, plus after layer-by-layer investigation, Yi Zhonghai's relationship network was simple, and it was indeed impossible to find any connection between him and that side... Yi Zhonghai's final handling result would not be too serious, at least his little life was saved, but even if Yi Zhonghai could be released in the future, the outcome would not be too good...

After coming out of Director Deng's house, Xu Damao's mood improved a lot. He rode his bike to Shichahai and found Li Shangyou, who was drinking stuffy wine.

Xu Damao stated his intention directly. Hearing that there was money delivered to his door, Li Shangyou naturally wouldn't refuse.

Li Shangyou counted the money and smiled: "Brother, rest assured, we are professional in cleaning people up."

Xu Damao: "This matter is not urgent, you can wait a few more days, but the matter must be done cleanly, and it cannot involve me."

Li Shangyou: "Rest assured when we handle things." ===== CHAPTER 1456 =====
