Chapter 543 People from the same family stick together!

The deaf old lady ate a few mouthfuls of food with relish, then she put down her chopsticks and said to Sha Zhu kindly, "Grandma's grandson, I just heard about what your uncle did from your aunt, and I scolded her severely just now."

"Although your uncle did something unkind, he is still an elder who has watched you grow up. He has helped you a lot in the courtyard over the years. Can you please let your uncle go for the sake of the old lady?"

When Sha Zhu heard what the deaf old lady said, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank the wine in the glass. Then he said to the deaf old lady, "Old lady! To be honest, when the police came to find me today, my first thought was that all this was fake. It was not until the police showed me the evidence from their investigation that I finally understood that the reason why I had such a hard life in those years was entirely because of Yi Zhonghai."

"After I returned to the cafeteria the following afternoon, I kept thinking, Yi Zhonghai is so good to me, why did he embezzle my money? As a result, I thought about it for the whole afternoon, and then I realized that Yi Zhonghai's kindness to me was all just lip service, except for a few steamed buns!"

"Old lady! If Yi Zhonghai hadn't embezzled the money and workstation left by He Daqing, I wouldn't have to make a living by picking up garbage. If he hadn't sold my workstation, I wouldn't have to work as a temporary worker in the steel mill for three years?"

"Now you want me to let Yi Zhonghai go because we live in the same courtyard and because Yi Zhonghai has helped me a lot over the years. Do you think this is possible?"

The deaf old lady heard Sha Zhu's bitter words, but she did not make any comments against him. Instead, she smiled and persuaded him, "Zhu Zi! It is better to make enemies than to make enemies! I will make the decision to let your uncle return the money to you, and then compensate you with 300 yuan. Do you think this is okay?"

In the aunt's subconscious mind, although they withheld the living expenses of Sha Zhu's brothers and sisters, they had been saving it for Sha Zhu, so as long as they returned the money to Sha Zhu, nothing would be a problem.

Now the old lady not only asked her to return the money, but also wanted her family to compensate Sha Zhu with three hundred yuan. This made the old lady, who valued money more than her life, immediately anxious. She wanted to speak out to refute, but before she could say anything, she was glared back by the deaf old lady.

If Jia Dongming had not analyzed the situation for Sha Zhu at noon, Sha Zhu would definitely have agreed to the compensation plan proposed by the deaf old lady.

When Sha Zhu heard what the deaf old lady said and saw the reaction of the aunt, he smiled and said to her, "Old lady! When the police came to see me today, they told me that based on what the uncle did, he would be sentenced to 20 years in prison at the lightest, or eating peanuts at the worst."

"Thinking about the life I lived with Yu Shui, do you think I would be interested in the three hundred dollars?"

"It's getting late, please go back! If you have anything to say, we can talk about it after the police have the result."

The deaf old lady watched Sha Zhu grow up, so she knew Sha Zhu's character very well. So after hearing Sha Zhu's answer, she immediately realized that Yi Zhonghai might suffer a heavy loss this time.

With this thought in mind, the deaf old lady kindly asked Sha Zhu, "Zhu Zi! Then tell me, how much money do you need to let your uncle go?"

When Sha Zhu heard what the deaf old lady said and thought of what Jia Dongming had said, he laughed and said, "Grandma! I'm in a state of confusion right now. I think we should wait a few days before we talk about this matter!" When the deaf old lady heard Sha Zhu's answer, she guessed that he was unwilling to give in, so she stood up from the dining table and said with a smile, "Okay! Okay! Okay, then grandma will come to see you in two days."

When Auntie saw that even the old lady had shown up, she still couldn't convince Sha Zhu, she immediately got anxious and yelled at Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu! Our Lao Yi has helped you a lot over the years, how can you do such a thing of repaying kindness with enmity now? You are an ungrateful person, what are you?"

When the aunt went to look for Sha Zhu, everyone in the yard turned their attention to Sha Zhu's house, so the neighbors in the yard all heard the conversation between the three people clearly, and they also understood that the person who was taken advantage of by Yi Zhonghai was actually Sha Zhu.

All of a sudden, all the neighbors in the yard were whispering to each other about how Sha Zhu was wiped out by Yi Zhonghai.

When Sha Zhu heard Auntie's scolding, a mocking expression appeared on his face. He asked Auntie in a very cold tone: "Auntie! You just said that Yi Zhonghai has helped my brother and me a lot over the years. So tell me, besides occasionally giving us a pair of steamed buns, how else has Yi Zhonghai helped us?"

When the aunt heard the question raised by Sha Zhu, she wanted to refute Sha Zhu, but when she was about to speak, she found that she could not find any examples.

The deaf old lady could never have imagined that after Sha Zhu had said so much, an old lady would actually use moral kidnapping to force Sha Zhu to give in. This made her speechless, and she could only say that they are not from the same family and will not enter the same door!

The deaf old lady looked at the neighbors gathered in the yard, stood up from the dining table with a cane, and said to the aunt, "Old Yi! I'm tired, take me home!"

The deaf old lady's behavior finally gave the aunt a chance to breathe a sigh of relief. She quickly took advantage of the situation and replied, "Old lady! I'll help you get back."

After Yan Bugui and the other aunt helped the deaf old lady leave, he immediately walked into Sha Zhu's house. When he saw the dishes on Sha Zhu's table, he swallowed without leaving a trace, then sat down next to Sha Zhu and asked Sha Zhu curiously, "Sha Zhu! I heard that Yi Zhonghai was arrested by the police for eating human blood buns. Does this have anything to do with you?"

If it were an ordinary day, when Sha Zhu saw Yan Bugui coming uninvited, he would definitely drive Yan Bugui out without hesitation. However, the moral blackmail of the aunt just now had completely angered Sha Zhu, so Sha Zhu did not intend to hide the fact that Yi Zhonghai embezzled the child support for their siblings and told the neighbors in the yard.

After listening to Sha Zhu's introduction and learning about Yi Zhonghai's actions, everyone showed an expression of disbelief on their faces.

Yan Bugui looked at the dishes on the table and said to Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu! Old Yi is usually willing to help others and neighbors, but I didn't expect that he would be such a person?"

Yan Bugui picked up the bottle and said to Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu! Don't think about these unhappy things. I'll drink a few glasses with you, and then you can have a good sleep. When you wake up tomorrow, all your troubles will disappear without a trace."
