Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

The boss grinned and waved his hand dismissively: "It's nothing. I, Guo Dapao, can't stand these shady rats. Since you paid me, it's my responsibility to get your brother safely home. It's a pity your brother was still shot by the bandits."

"Young lady, there's nothing for me here. I'll go find some work first. I have a family to support, so I can't waste so much time here."

Seeing this, He Yushui quickly took out the last twenty yuan from her pocket and handed it to Guo Dapao.

"Uncle Guo, this is all the money I have on me right now. Please tell me your home address so I can take my brother to thank you when he recovers."

Guo Dapao really wanted to accept the twenty yuan. For him, that twenty yuan was the family's lifeline. The ration had been reduced by 20%, and his grandchildren were crying out for food every day. However, he had his principles, and he couldn't accept the money.

With a serious expression, he stuffed the money back into He Yushui's hand and said earnestly, "Young lady, I can't accept this money. You should use it to treat your brother's injuries. Here's what we agreed on: give me one yuan."

He Yushui was about to speak, trying to persuade Grandpa Guo to accept the twenty yuan, when Guo Dapao took out one yuan from the twenty yuan and preemptively said:

"Little girl, I'll take this one yuan. I, Guo Dapao, have my own principles. I definitely won't accept your money. However, I caught this thug this time, and the police and the joint defense team should give me a reward. I certainly won't refuse that. That's all. Take good care of your brother. I'll be going now."

After saying that, Guo Dapao turned and left.

"Uncle Guo, wait a minute."

Seeing that Grandpa Guo was such a principled person, He Yushui stopped trying to persuade him and quickly asked him:

"Uncle Guo, you haven't told me where you live yet. Once my brother's injury heals, I'll bring two bottles of wine over so he can have a good drink with you to repay your life-saving grace. Surely you won't refuse that."

"Haha, good, good, good."

Guo Dapao laughed heartily, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth. He really liked He Yushui's personality, and said with a loud laugh:

"Young lady, what's your name? I live at No. 82 Zhengyangmen Street. I'm just waiting for you to bring some wine so I can have a drink with you. It's settled then."

He Yushui smiled and said, "My name is He Yushui, and my brother's name is He Yuzhu. Once my brother's injury heals, we will definitely come over to have a drink with you."

"become."

Guo Dapao smiled and nodded in agreement, then turned and left Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

Watching Grandpa Guo's retreating figure, He Yushui secretly marveled at how amazing Grandpa Guo was, subduing an armed bandit with his bare hands.

Moreover, he is of such high moral character that he doesn't accept money from her, yet she works so hard to make a living. If it weren't for him, not to mention He Yuzhu, she might have been killed by the bandits.

After Guo Da-ye disappeared from sight, He Yu-shui paced back and forth outside the emergency room, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Although she had severed her sibling relationship with He Yuzhu, she still couldn't sever the blood ties when faced with a life-or-death situation.

After all, He Yuzhu had raised her from a young age. If it weren't for He Yuzhu after her father left Beijing, she wouldn't have survived to this day at the age of six.

He Yuzhu had just undergone kidney removal surgery not long ago, and the wound had not yet healed. Now he has been shot in the right lung. It is unknown whether He Yuzhu can survive this.

He Yushui waited outside the emergency room for two hours. Suddenly, the emergency room door opened, and a doctor in a white coat came out.

He Yushui rushed forward and asked, "Doctor, how is my brother?"

The doctor took off his mask and sighed deeply: "He Yuzhu was shot in the lung. His previous injuries have not healed, and he is very weak. In addition, he lost too much blood. Although our surgery was very successful and we successfully removed the bullet and gave him a blood transfusion in time, his body is still too weak. If he cannot wake up within 24 hours, he probably will not wake up again."

Upon hearing this, He Yushui's face turned deathly pale, and she hurriedly asked, "Doctor, is there really no other way?"

The doctor sighed and slowly shook his head: "I'm sorry, we've done our best. He Yuzhu will be transferred to the intensive care unit later. Take good care of him. Maybe he has a strong will to live and he might wake up."

Hearing the doctor's words, He Yushui still asked, unwilling to give up, "Doctor, what are the chances of my brother waking up?"

The doctor shook his head and sighed, "Judging from the severity of the injuries, He Yuzhu's chances of waking up are only five percent. If He Yuzhu's will to live is strong, then his chances of waking up can reach more than thirty percent."

"He Yuzhu is currently in a deep coma. Otherwise, if you talk to him or have someone close to him talk to him, it might greatly increase his will to live. But now he is in a deep coma and he can't hear what outsiders are saying. Now he can only rely on his own willpower."

Upon hearing this, He Yushui's heart skipped a beat, and her face turned deathly pale.

Taking a deep breath, He Yushui nodded to the doctor: "Doctor, thank you. I will take good care of him."

......

at the same time.

Dongcheng District Police Station.

After the joint defense team members handed the criminals over to the Dongcheng District Police Station, the police immediately interrogated them. In less than half an hour, the criminals couldn't take it anymore and confessed everything, including their current hideout.

The robber was a thin young man who had been working for Master Jiu for several years. His nickname was Lao Liu, and his full name was Qin Liu.

The police used all sorts of methods, and Lao Liu couldn't withstand them at all, so he had no choice but to confess.

Lao Liu really didn't expect that after staking out He Yuzhu at Xiehe Hospital for more than a week with a gun, he would fail.

What's more, the reason for the failure was actually a brothel owner. The plan, which was supposed to be foolproof, was disrupted by a brothel owner. Moreover, this brothel owner knocked his pistol away with his bare hands and even knocked him unconscious with a single punch, which is truly unbelievable.

If he had known this boss was so powerful, he would have preferred to wait for another opportunity rather than make a move in front of him. Now look what happened, he got caught and even dragged Ninth Master and the others into it.

If he hadn't been unable to bear it any longer and had no chance to commit suicide, he would have preferred to kill himself rather than implicate Ninth Master and the others.

Having obtained accurate information about the gang and their current hideout, the Dongcheng Police Station immediately dispatched twenty officers to a secluded courtyard near Zhengyangmen, where they surrounded the courtyard where Master Jiu was located.
