Courtyard House: She got anxious when He Yushui wasn't licked.

At Wang Lin's door, Huaihua knocked on the door with her hand.

Boom boom boom!

The people inside didn't hear it, but Wang Lin had excellent hearing, so he got up to open the door.

Huaihua stood in front of Wang Lin and raised her hand to him, saying, "Uncle Wang Lin, Uncle Shazhu and the others are coming to teach you a lesson."

Wang Lin didn't expect Huaihua to come and tip him off. He reached out and pinched Huaihua's face, saying, "Okay, Uncle knows. Go back and wait for the next time you come to Uncle's house for meat."

Huaihua nodded, then turned and quietly left.

Why tip them off? It was all to curry favor with Wang Lin so that they could get something out of him later.

"Those are locust flowers, aren't they?"

He Yushui walked to Wang Lin's side. She didn't expect that Huaihua would secretly come to inform Wang Lin. This little girl is so clever for her age.

"Hmm, the deaf old lady isn't home. She probably went to your brother to complain." Wang Lin was able to make a rough calculation.

"I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this." He Yushui didn't expect the deaf old lady to go and complain. Her expression turned sour. She had always been kind to the deaf old lady, and she felt like she had been betrayed.

"It's alright. Even if you're not here, they'll still come after me. Jealousy is a disease." Wang Lin wasn't worried at all. He turned around, went back inside, sat down, and continued eating and drinking. As for He Yuzhu coming to cause him trouble, he wasn't afraid at all.

Now, let alone the courtyard's simp god of war, Sha Zhu, even if Xu Damao and Sha Zhu joined forces, they wouldn't be his match.

He Yushui sat down next to Wang Lin and said nervously, "Maybe I should go back first, otherwise my silly brother will definitely attack you again when he comes."

"Sister Yushui, don't worry, Brother Lin is very good at fighting. Your brother might not be a match for him." Fang Yue wasn't worried about Wang Lin's safety at all. After all, she had witnessed Wang Lin's strength. Even if Sha Zhu came, he would have no chance against Wang Lin.

"I..." He Yushui didn't know what to say. She was worried about Wang Lin and also worried that Sha Zhu couldn't beat him. She was really caught in the middle and it was a difficult situation.

"Eat, don't worry." Wang Lin picked up his chopsticks and continued eating the tripe, saying, "You might not be able to eat this again next time."

"Then I'll have to eat my fill." Upon hearing this, Fang Yue stopped dawdling and picked up a piece of beef with her chopsticks, putting it into the copper pot.

"Glug." He Yushui looked at the piping hot, cooked meat and thought that Wang Lin's words made sense. She decided to eat first.

Wang Lin's family continued to eat and drink, completely unaffected by Huaihua's tip-off.

On He Yuzhu's side, after returning to He Yuzhu's house, Huaihua continued to eat silently with her head down.

It must be said that Huaihua did the right thing in this respect: eat more, talk less, observe more, think more, and ponder more.

Half an hour later, Qin Huairu and her family finally put down their chopsticks.

There was almost no leftover food from the meal He Yuzhu prepared tonight, and that was only because Ran Qiuye was controlling her diet. If she hadn't been controlling her eating habits, there probably wouldn't have been enough food.

Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu both drank alcohol and ate vegetables, but didn't dare to eat rice.

Most of the meat ended up in the stomachs of Qin Huairu's family, and some went to Jia Zhangshi. Although she wasn't there, Qin Huairu didn't hold back and the meal was quite lavish.

"Let's go, old man! Let's make that kid Wang Lin pay a price."

He Yuzhu got up and was about to go to the backyard to cause trouble for Wang Lin.

"Alright, let's go. We need to properly persuade Yushui and not push her into the fire."

Yi Zhonghai had also had a few drinks, which emboldened him.

Seeing that He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai had both come out, the deaf old woman believed that the two of them, united as one, would surely be able to subdue Wang Lin.

Without Wang Lin's help, life in the backyard has become somewhat difficult, especially since they can't find anyone to serve them. The deaf old lady knows this all too well.

Qin Huairu called to Ran Qiuye, "Teacher Ran, since it's already this late, why don't you come with us to the backyard to cheer them on? After all, you're a teacher, and you know the道理 (principles/reasoning), so you can persuade that person in the backyard."

Ran Qiuye originally intended to refuse, as she couldn't meddle in the affairs of this courtyard, since she was an outsider. However, Qin Huairu had already said so, which was tantamount to putting her in a difficult position, so she had no choice but to nod and say, "Then I'll go and take a look."

As for Banggeng, Xiaodang, and Huaihua, there was no need for the three children to join in the fun. Qin Huairu sent them all back to their rooms to be looked after by Jia Zhangshi.

And so, He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai helped the deaf old lady to the backyard first, followed by Qin Huairu and Ran Qiuye.

Chapter 79 Wang Lin is looking for trouble; he doesn't know how to speak politely.

"Wang Lin! Get out here!"

As soon as He Yuzhu arrived in the backyard, he yelled at the top of his lungs. Anyone with eyes could see that this guy had drunk too much horse urine.

"rainwater!"

Yi Zhonghai then played a trick on He Yuzhu, calling out He Yushui's name instead of Wang Lin's.

Wang Lin and the others, who were lying inside after eating and drinking their fill, got up, opened the door, and came out when they heard the noise.

Wang Lin walked in front, followed by He Yushui, and then Fang Yue and Chen Amao. As for Wang Baobao and Wang Beibei, Wang Lin arranged for them to sleep in a room.

When He Yuzhu saw that his younger sister He Yushui was indeed at Wang Lin's house, and even standing with Wang Lin, his temper flared up, and he shouted, "Yushui, come here."

He Yushui looked at her silly brother and protested, "Silly brother! I don't agree to you coming to the backyard to cause trouble for Wang Lin. Wang Lin hasn't provoked you."

Yi Zhonghai was somewhat surprised to see He Yushui standing behind Wang Lin this time. He had been brainwashing He Yuzhu and his sister for so many years, and this was the first time he had seen He Yushui refute her brother Shazhu for Wang Lin's sake.

It must be said that Wang Lin is indeed quite capable; at least for now, it seems he has persuaded He Yushui.

He Yuzhu pointed at Wang Lin and cursed, "Wang Lin! You little bastard, what are you trying to do by still arguing with my sister? I, He Yuzhu, despise people like you."

Wang Lin looked at the clamoring He Yuzhu and didn't mince words, directly confronting him: "What? You think you're all that again after drinking some horse piss? Have you forgotten how many times you've suffered losses at my hands before?"

He Yuzhu still vividly remembered the scene of fighting with Wang Lin. It was because his strength and speed were no match for Wang Lin's!

Despite losing the argument, He Yuzhu, relying on his teammates, continued arrogantly: "I was letting you off the hook before! Wang Lin! I'll give you a chance to let He Yushui go, and from now on we'll be strangers."

Yi Zhonghai chimed in, "He Yushui is the pride of our compound. We can't let her be ruined in your hands. Wang Lin, let go."

This makes it sound as if Wang Lin is not good enough for He Yushui.

Looking at the fool and Yi Zhonghai tonight, He Yushui felt a sense of resistance for the first time. She said to He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai, "Fool, old man, I don't care if you've been drinking tonight or not, it's wrong of you to cause trouble here."

Before Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu could speak, Qin Huairu shouted, "Oh, Yushui, how can you not tell good people from bad people? We're doing this for your own good."

Seeing Qin Huairu's heartbroken expression, He Yushui felt a pang of guilt for saying those words. She changed her tune and said to Qin Huairu, "Sister Qin, please don't get involved. This is our family matter."

"Good heavens!" Qin Huairu immediately laughed and said, "We're all neighbors in the same courtyard, we see each other all the time. Besides, can't we interfere in your family affairs? We're doing this for your own good! Wang Lin is not someone you can entrust your life to."

Qin Huairu started speaking ill of Wang Lin, which displeased Fang Yue, who was standing behind Wang Lin. She glared at Qin Huairu, put her hands on her hips, and scolded, "You widow, you're spouting nonsense! My brother Lin is such an outstanding person, you have no right to speak ill of him."

Wang Lin looked at the group of people, stepped forward, and said domineeringly, "I don't care what you're here for in my yard. If you're here to cause trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless. I know a lot of your secrets."

To intimidate everyone, Wang Lin even scanned these beasts and emphasized the word "secret."

"How could Wang Lin resort to threatening people with secrets when he couldn't win an argument? He's despicable."

Qin Huairu was panicked. Wang Lin did indeed know many of his secrets, and she dared not act rashly again. So she placed her hopes on He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai. She did not believe that Wang Lin knew even their secrets.

"What a joke! I, He Yuzhu, am a man of integrity and honesty. There is no secret you can threaten." He Yuzhu is known for his fearlessness, especially in front of Ran Qiuye, where he absolutely has to act like a real man.

Wang Lin said with a smile, "Really! Who took apart Uncle San's bicycle last night?"

He Yuzhu sobered up instantly. He stared at Wang Lin with wide eyes. It was late last night, how could Wang Lin have stayed up and seen this?

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai realized something was wrong. Wang Lin had actually witnessed the entire process of He Yuzhu's crime. At the same time, he cursed He Yuzhu in his heart, thinking, "You want to take revenge, but you had to let someone see it."

The most surprised was He Yushui. She couldn't sleep last night and discovered that her silly brother had dismantled Uncle San's bicycle. And how did Wang Lin find out about this? Did he get up in the middle of the night? But the toilet wasn't near He Yuzhu's!

He Yuzhu denied it in a flustered manner: "Wang Lin, you're making false accusations!"

At this point, we absolutely cannot admit to it.

Wang Lin looked at Ran Qiuye next to Qin Huairu and continued to reveal, "Presumably, Teacher Ran ran into Sha Zhu when she went to the bicycle shop to change her bicycle wheels this morning. He was the one who went to the bicycle shop to buy Yan Bugui's bicycle wheels."

“Yes! I did change my bicycle wheel at the bicycle shop this morning.” Ran Qiuye, who was next to Qin Huairu, remembered this. No wonder He Yuzhu looked familiar when she saw him. She had just seen him at the bicycle shop that morning.

"That woman this morning was Teacher Ran!" He Yuzhu was also stunned.

He Yuzhu had covered himself up quite a bit before going to sell bicycle wheels, and Ran Qiuye, who was also there to buy bicycle wheels, was wearing a hat, so the two didn't recognize each other for a while.

Now that Wang Lin has exposed the truth, the two exchanged a glance, both showing shock in each other's eyes.

To keep the conversation flowing smoothly, Yi Zhonghai immediately changed the subject, saying, "Wang Lin, we're talking about He Yushui and your business right now, let's not bring up other things."

Wang Lin, however, wouldn't let Yi Zhonghai have his way, saying, "What, Yi Zhonghai, are you planning to take the blame for your retirement partner's wrongdoing?"

For those needing elderly care!

These four words pierced Yi Zhonghai's heart like needles.

"Wang Lin, stop talking nonsense!"

Yi Zhonghai pointed at Wang Lin. He never expected that Wang Lin could see through his secret. His secret was that he wanted to control He Yuzhu as a candidate for retirement. No one in the compound could see it. How could an eighteen-year-old boy like him see it?

Is it really true that those involved are often confused while bystanders see things clearly?

"This old man actually intends to take my brother into his retirement!"

Seeing Yi Zhonghai's expression, He Yushui felt extremely ashamed. She wasn't stupid; she had already discerned some clues from Yi Zhonghai's demeanor.

"He Yuzhu! I never expected you to be this kind of person!"

Ran Qiuye felt extremely ashamed. She hadn't expected that the person selling bicycle wheels she met that morning was Sha Zhu. The thought that the wheels on her bicycle belonged to Yan Bugui, a colleague from the same school, made her feel guilty.

He Yuzhu quickly explained, "Teacher Ran, don't listen to his nonsense. How could I do such a thing?"

Nothing else matters now; the most important thing for him is to explain things clearly to Ran Qiuye.

As for whether He Yushui and Wang Lin are entangled, that's not as important as his life's most important matter.

Qin Huairu couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him, "Grandpa! Sha Zhu! Don't let Wang Lin lead you by the nose."

"Qin Huairu, why don't you try to persuade He Yushui?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't want to be led by the nose by Wang Lin, but Wang Lin completely disregarded martial ethics and directly exposed his secret, doing so casually as if it weren't a big secret.

"I should advise against it?" Qin Huairu looked at He Yushui, about to speak, when Wang Lin suddenly warned, "Qin Huairu, think it over before you speak, or I'll have to spill the beans again."

"Forget it, it's her business if He Yushui wants to pester Wang Lin, I don't care." Qin Huairu immediately stated that she didn't want to be exposed by Wang Lin for helping Yi Zhonghai.

Even if Yi Zhonghai was foolish, he realized that Wang Lin knew many of their secrets. Now they were in a very passive position. If they wanted to control Wang Lin, they had to be prepared to lose their reputation at any time.

"Banggeng's mom, I have to go." Ran Qiuye didn't plan to stay in the yard any longer; her mind was in turmoil.

"Teacher Ran! I'll see you off." He Yuzhu immediately turned into a sycophant and took the initiative to greet her, wanting to explain things to Ran Qiuye.

"Silly Zhu!" Qin Huairu called out.

At this moment, He Yuzhu only had eyes for Ran Qiuye, and he completely forgot about Qin Huairu.

Ignored, Qin Huairu stomped her feet in anger, "You stupid Zhu! You only use people when you need them, and discard them when you don't."
