Chapter 520: The Deaf Old Lady Has a Lot of Yellow Croakers

After this incident in the courtyard, everyone became quiet for a while.

Although Liu Haizhong was looking for evidence and tried his best to prove his innocence, unfortunately he found nothing and could only suffer the consequences in the end.

In the blink of an eye, it was 1955 and the Spring Festival was approaching.

The entire courtyard was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Although everyone lives a very poor life, we still have to find joy in hardship, especially since the Chinese New Year is a festival for everyone.

Even the poorest families would buy some fat meat, cook some lard, and have some dumplings.

That day, Sha Zhu stole two pounds of beef from the factory and brought it to He Yushui to eat.

The first thing He Yushui thought of was to send it to Han Weimin. For the past six months, he had been taking tutoring lessons with Ran Qiuye at Han Weimin's house, and he often ate there for free.

Although Sha Zhu gave him 5 yuan every month, that amount of money was just enough for an ordinary person's food. According to Han Weimin's family's food standards, one person would need at least to yuan a month, and they would often eat meat and all kinds of delicious food.

Of course, this is something that ordinary people cannot afford, so He Yushui picked up all the things and went to Han Weimin's house.

Sha Zhu immediately stopped him and said, "Yu Shui, what are you doing?"

"Does Brother Han's family need this little bit of beef? Aren't you making fun of him?"

"Look at Li Ping's family. They have elderly parents and young children. Send half of it to them."

"And this deaf old lady has been kind to me and helped me, so I gave her some."

"Eat the remaining half pound yourself, don't give it away."

"Oh, no, no, no."

"It's not appropriate for me to go to Yi Zhonghai empty-handed during the New Year. After all, I am his son now."

"So the two pounds of beef will be divided into four portions, one for Li Ping, one for the deaf old lady, one for you, and one for Yi Zhonghai. That's the happy decision."

"But Brother Han is still very good to you. So, after I get my salary, I'll give Brother Han an extra five dollars."

He Yushui curled her lips, obviously a little unhappy, especially because it was going to be given to Li Ping.

"Brother, can you please be more careful and stop getting involved with Li Ping, okay?"

"It's not like I can't find a partner. I just get annoyed by seeing their family members."

After the rain had soaked the beef, Sha Zhu took two portions to Yi Zhonghai.

"Mom and Dad, look what I brought you. This is the best beef. I brought it back from the factory."

"How is it? It smells good, right?"

"Don't tell me I haven't been filial to you, old couple."

The aunt was quite content, even though she had lost a lot of money before.

However, Sha Zhu worked in the factory canteen and was able to send some food back home every month, which saved the family a lot.

It was not in vain that I adopted this son, as he gets some delicious food during festivals.

"Silly Zhu, you'd better be careful when stealing public property. It will be bad if someone finds out."

Sha Zhu is now considered a habitual offender, and he has never failed.

"Okay, just eat without worry. Oh, it's okay. I, Shazhu, know my limits. No one will know."

Yi Zhonghai stared at Sha Zhu's hand with sharp eyes.

"What's the matter? You sent a copy to someone else's house. Who was it? It was Han Weimin."

"How could Han Weimin's family be short of food? How could they be short of your beef? They usually have plenty of meat and fish, so they don't need this bite at all."

When Yi Zhonghai heard that it was given to a deaf old lady, he suddenly became a little reluctant.

Yi Zhonghai would help the deaf old lady from time to time, but he would only give her steamed buns mixed with corn flour, and he never gave her anything good.

"Old woman, quickly bring a basin over here and dig out some more. The deaf old lady has no teeth left, how can she eat this? Besides, it would be a waste to eat so much. Just give her one or two pieces to try."

Yi Zhonghai pulled it out without saying a word, leaving a little broth and two pieces of beef, and then put his own steamed buns in.

"This steamed bun is also very fragrant after being soaked in the broth. It is just the right softness for her to digest. This is also for her own good. If she eats beef and gets upset in her stomach, she will blame you. I am doing this for your own good, Shazhu."

In this courtyard, the people who have a good relationship with the deaf old lady, who is a five-guarantee household, are Yi Zhonghai, Sha Zhu and Han Weimin.

"Old lady, wait at home for us to come back and eat together. Don't eat all the beef by yourself."

"Come on, Shazhu, let's deliver the beef to the deaf old lady's house, and then go to Han Weimin's house to pay New Year's greetings."

"Han Weimin usually doesn't let us in, and even if we do, he never gives us anything to eat. He should at least give us something good during the New Year, right?"

Sha Zhu chuckled. He also wanted to go to Han Weimin's house for a meal. Every time he did, he envied his sister He Yushui very much.

The fragrance wafting from Han Weimin's house every day makes other neighbors in the courtyard extremely envious.

As the two people walked out of the door, Yi Zhonghai came closer and spoke in a low voice.

"Silly Zhu, you should have discovered it, right? The deaf old lady actually has quite a few treasures at home."

"I know there's a small box under her bed, and it seems to be full of small yellow croakers."

"In order to prevent any more trouble, we should visit the deaf old lady more often during the New Year and try to trick her into giving us all her yellow croakers."

The reason why Yi Zhonghai was so kind to the deaf old lady was because of her yellow croaker.

Sha Zhu also knew that the deaf old lady had a box, which might contain some change, but he was not sure about the small yellow croaker.

But since Yi Zhonghai said it, it is most likely true, so Sha Zhu can't admit that he didn't know.

"Yes, we must deal with this matter as soon as possible."

"Dad, I found that Liu Haizhong often goes to the deaf old lady's place, right? Does he also know the deaf old lady's secret?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head.

"Shouldn't it?"

"Liu Haizhong did this mainly to win everyone's favor and make himself the boss."

"The deaf old lady still has a certain weight in our courtyard...but now that you put it that way, it is really possible."

"No, let's go quickly. We must not let this old guy intercept us."

The father and son hurried over to the deaf old lady and heard her cursing inside.

"Liu Haizhong, take all this dog food back and let your family eat it."

"Han Weimin brought me some mutton, it was frozen soft and delicious, who wants something that even dogs wouldn't eat?"

"Besides, I don't have any small yellow fish. I'm just an old lady with five protections, so stop throwing dirty water at me."
