Chapter 786 House
He Yuzhu lingered at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau for a long time, wondering whether he should go in and ask for clarification. After much hesitation, he mustered up the courage to go back, looked at the people from the Public Security Bureau carefully, and said with a flattering smile on his face, "Comrade, can I ask you something?"
The police looked him up and down. Seeing that he didn't seem to have any bad intentions and hadn't committed any crime, they relaxed their expressions and looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Go ahead, what's the matter?"
He Yuzhu rubbed his hands, hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to ask this deaf old man... Oh, no, it's Zhang Ying's house, what should I do next?"
When the police officer heard this, he frowned slightly, looked at He Yuzhu in confusion and asked, "Zhang Ying's house is now owned by the state. What does this have to do with you?"
When He Yuzhu was asked this question, he was suddenly speechless and his face turned red and white. Knowing that he had failed, he could only turn around and leave in shame.
Back at the courtyard, the whole courtyard was talking about the deaf old lady. Everyone was talking about all sorts of things, but no one really knew what had happened. Everyone's face was filled with curiosity and confusion.
The next morning, it was a rare weekend, and everyone was still asleep, when suddenly a loud noise broke the tranquility of the courtyard. It turned out that the police had come. This time, their actions were more thorough. They searched the deaf old lady's house thoroughly, leaving no corner untouched. After the search, they prepared to seal it.
After hearing the noise, Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu also walked over. Yi Zhonghai had actually been eyeing this house for a long time, and had been thinking about finding an opportunity to occupy it. When he saw the people from the Public Security Bureau, his eyes suddenly lit up. He came forward with a flattering smile on his face, looked at the people from the Public Security Bureau and said, "Comrade, Zhang Ying has been sentenced, so shouldn't this house also have a clear destination?"
Liu Haizhong heard Yi Zhonghai's words and immediately understood his idea. He also wanted to own the house. After all, he was the nominal master of the courtyard house, and when Liu Guangtian came out, he would also need a house to start a family, so he had to fight for the house no matter what.
After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, the people from the Public Security Bureau looked at him sharply and asked seriously, "Zhang Ying is a reactionary. What's the matter? Are you related to Zhang Ying?"
When He Yuzhu heard this, he was about to explain, but Yi Zhonghai was not a fool, and he realized instantly that this was a trap. If he admitted that he had a relationship with Zhang Ying, he might be arrested the next second. So, he hurriedly shook his head vigorously and said sincerely: "We are just neighbors, and we don't usually have any contact. Apart from that, there is really no relationship. Comrade, please don't misunderstand."
The people from the Public Security Bureau looked at Yi Zhonghai, then at He Yuzhu, and seeing that the two men looked nervous and did not seem to be lying, they said nothing more and turned around to leave the courtyard.
He Yuzhu didn't have much idea about this house. He felt that he had nothing to do with it. Seeing that the police had left, he had nothing to do here, so he turned around and went back, leaving Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong still staring at the house that was about to be sealed.
Liu Haizhong was about to mention the house, but he swallowed it back. He was nervous. After all, this matter involved the reactionaries, and it was no joke. He thought to himself that if he was still thinking about the deaf old lady's house, he would be accused of colluding with the reactionaries, which would be a big trouble. But he was unwilling to let go of such a good opportunity to laugh at Yi Zhonghai.
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Haizhong quickly stepped forward and stopped Yi Zhonghai who was about to leave. With a half-smile on his face, he deliberately asked, "Old Yi, what's going on? We all thought it was a deaf old lady, but now it's Zhang Ying. How did she become a reactionary?"
Yi Zhonghai was upset by Liu Haizhong's sudden question. He glared at him unhappily and said, "How should I know? I can only say that she hid it too deeply. After so many years, who would have thought that she would be such a person." Yi Zhonghai was very depressed at the moment and had no mood to explain this to Liu Haizhong.
Seeing Yi Zhonghai being humiliated, Liu Haizhong was secretly delighted and could not help but continue teasing: "Old Yi, you and Zhang Ying have a special relationship. Are you also a reactionary?" After saying that, he deliberately winked and looked playful.
This was no ordinary joke. In the environment at that time, being accused of being a reactionary was a serious crime. Yi Zhonghai turned pale instantly when he heard it. He looked at Liu Haizhong in horror and waved his hands and said, "Old Liu, please don't talk nonsense! This hat is too big for me to bear. You can't joke about this kind of thing. It will cause a big disaster." Yi Zhonghai knew the seriousness of this crime and was angry and afraid.
Liu Haizhong looked at Yi Zhonghai's panic-stricken look, and he was so proud of himself. He thought, with this information, he could control Yi Zhonghai for the rest of his life, and see how he could put on airs in front of him. It would be easy to deal with Yi Zhonghai in the future.
Liu Haizhong was thinking about how to further control Yi Zhonghai and was about to say something when Yi Zhonghai was already shaking with anger. He could no longer hold back and left in a huff. He really didn't expect that the deaf old lady he had always regarded as a backer was actually the hidden reactionary Zhang Ying. This was great. He had no one to rely on in the courtyard anymore. He felt so aggrieved.
Yi Zhonghai returned to the middle courtyard angrily. As soon as he stood firm, Qin Huairu came over like a cat smelling blood. She asked anxiously, "Uncle Yi, what's going on? I heard that the deaf old lady in the backyard was taken away? What happened?" Qin Huairu's eyes revealed an unconcealed curiosity and a hint of expectation.
Yi Zhonghai was already in a terrible mood, and seeing Qin Huairu like this, he became even more impatient and said unhappily: "Okay, don't ask about this matter anymore. It has nothing to do with you. Stay out of it and don't cause trouble for yourself." Yi Zhonghai didn't have the heart to explain these messy things to Qin Huairu.
