Chapter 356

After more than half an hour of earnest and well-meaning cajoling.

The Deaf Old Lady was also on the side, speaking in a sarcastic and mocking tone.

One soft and one hard, they cooperated tacitly.

In the end, the aggrieved He Yushui was pushed to walk into the back courtyard once again.

After walking into the Xu family, she knelt on the ground with a thud, pleading with tears like rain:

"Brother Damao! You are a magnanimous person!"

"Please, forgive my brother!"

"I know it was my brother who let you down!"

"It was my brother who hurt you!"

"You can ask for as much compensation as you want!"

"I know you hate my brother in your heart!"

"But even if my brother dies of old age in prison, it won't make up for your losses."

"But if you can forgive my brother, my family will compensate you even if it means bankruptcy."

"I will do my utmost to atone! Please give my brother a chance!"

Xu Damao originally wanted to curse to vent his anger, but He Yushui's words suddenly made him silent.

Standing in the room with a gloomy face, Xu Damao couldn't help but weigh the pros and cons.

What He Yushui said made some sense.

Shazhu would just die of old age in prison.

Besides venting his anger, he wouldn't get any benefits.

Xu Damao was vengeful but also very greedy.

Instead of letting Shazhu waste his time in prison, it would be better to take this opportunity to make a profit.

Additionally, only if Shazhu was released early could he take his revenge early.

In his heart, Shazhu being in prison was letting him off too easily.

After learning that he couldn't have children because Shazhu beat him.

Xu Damao's first thought was to kill Shazhu.

But before killing Shazhu, he wanted to make Shazhu a eunuch!

After a silence, Xu Damao glared at He Yushui with red eyes:

"I can ask for as much compensation as I want; you said that yourself."

He Yushui nodded: "I said it."

Although it was He Yushui who said it, it was Yi Zhonghai's idea.

He Yushui had never considered compensation.

Because she knew there was no money at home.

But Yi Zhonghai told her he could help advance the money first, and she could pay it back when Shazhu had money.

Xu Damao extended a palm with a gloomy face: "I want five thousand yuan! As long as Shazhu compensates me five thousand yuan, I will write the letter of understanding."

"Five thousand!"

He Yushui widened her eyes in shock.

She had been mentally prepared for Xu Damao to ask for an exorbitant price.

But she didn't expect Xu Damao's appetite to be so big!

Her brother's salary wasn't low, but it was only thirty-seven yuan and fifty cents per month.

A year's salary was only four hundred and fifty yuan.

To earn five thousand yuan, at the current salary, it would take at least ten years or more.

Xu Damao sneered: "What? If you can't take it out, don't talk big."

He Yushui said weakly: "Brother Damao, this, five thousand yuan is too much."

Xu Damao looked at He Yushui kneeling on the ground, a flash of brilliance in his eyes.

He hadn't paid much attention before, but He Yushui was becoming more and more beautiful.

Xu Damao looked at He Yushui's face and figure uninhibitedly.

Although her figure was a bit thin, this girl had the advantage of being young.

The key was that she was also Shazhu's own sister.

If this were to...

Hehehe...

Shazhu would be angered to death!

Being able to enjoy himself and humiliate Shazhu... this was simply a beautiful thing that killed two birds with one stone!

Xu Damao smiled sinisterly: "Yushui, for your sake, I can ask for less compensation, but you also have to thank me."

He Yushui's face changed slightly: "Brother Damao, you are willing to reconcile; I am already very grateful to you now."

Xu Damao bent down with a wicked smile and reached out to touch He Yushui's face: "I don't want verbal thanks; I want you to thank me with your body."

"Slap!"

He Yushui gave Xu Damao a slap in shame and anger: "Xu Damao, you are shameless!"

"Good! Good!"

Xu Damao sneered with a face full of coldness: "He Yushui, you are high and mighty! Since that's the case, then take out the money; I won't agree to reconcile for even a cent less than five thousand yuan!"

He Yushui stood up in anger, glaring at Xu Damao hatefully: "Five thousand yuan, right! Just you wait!"

After leaving these words, He Yushui ran home in a huff.

She told Yi Zhonghai and the Deaf Old Lady about Xu Damao demanding five thousand yuan in compensation.

This left Yi Zhonghai in a bind on the spot, wishing he could kill Xu Damao.

This guy wasn't afraid of choking to death!

Five thousand yuan!

Even if he wanted to take out five thousand yuan, it would empty his family's savings.

Years of savings would vanish in an instant.

Yi Zhonghai felt heartache for the money, but the Deaf Old Lady didn't.

"Zhonghai!"

The Deaf Old Lady grabbed Yi Zhonghai's arm:

"Zhuzi is going to support you in your old age in the future!"

"You can't just stand by and watch him die!"

He Yushui also cried and pleaded: "Eldest Uncle! I know you are the most warm-hearted person in our courtyard; I beg you to save my brother!"

Yi Zhonghai sighed with a bitter face: "Old Lady, Yushui, I also want to save Zhuzi, but I can't take out that much money!"

The Deaf Old Lady stared straight at Yi Zhonghai: "Zhonghai, at this time, you can't drop the chain."

Yi Zhonghai could fool others, but he couldn't fool her, this old lady.

Although the Deaf Old Lady didn't go out often, those eyes of hers weren't idle.

She saw the affairs in the courtyard, especially Yi Zhonghai's affairs, very clearly.

Yi Zhonghai was the one who would support her in her old age.

How could she not care about Yi Zhonghai's money bag.

Yi Zhonghai's salary of ninety-nine yuan per month, plus various subsidies.

And the filial piety from his apprentices during holidays, his annual income was quite considerable.

Plus, Yi Zhonghai and the First Aunt had no children, and their daily life was frugal.

The savings accumulated over so many years were not a small amount; taking out five thousand yuan was definitely not a problem.

The Deaf Old Lady's calculations were correct; Yi Zhonghai could indeed take out the money.

But those were the retirement savings he had accumulated!

That was his lifeblood!

He had already invested a lot of money for Shazhu.

If he invested another five thousand yuan, he wouldn't have a chance to turn back in the future.

At this moment, he finally knew what it felt like to jump into a fire pit! ===== CHAPTER 358 =====
