The Courtyard House: Xu Damao's Aunt is the Queen of Women

"Fuck your mother, Yi Zhonghai! You're a despicable bastard, I wish I could kill you!!!"

He Daqing's eyes widened in anger, and he wanted to rush over and hit Yi Zhonghai, but he was stopped by the police standing behind him.

Zhang Sheng stood up and handed the sealed agreement, which was yellowed but had clear handwriting, to the deaf old woman, Yi Zhonghai.

Their pupils constricted sharply, and their hearts sank!

Thirteen years have passed, and He Daqing still keeps this agreement!

Zhang Sheng asked in a low voice, "Yi Zhonghai, Long Ziqing, I'll ask you one more time, do you still deny extorting He Daqing?"

"I...I..."

The deaf old woman opened her mouth, forcing herself to calm down, and argued, "It wasn't us extorting He Daqing! It was He Daqing who was afraid we would expose his secret sale of assets and falsification of his background, so he gave us the money voluntarily..."

"Bullshit!"

He Daqing glared at the deaf old woman and said angrily, "On June 2nd, 1951, you old beast called me to the back room and threatened me to hand over 40 million yuan, saying you would report me if I didn't. I accepted it and gave you the money, but you still shamelessly forced me to leave Beijing!"

"You deserve to be childless, you old bastard! You've done too many wicked things, this is your retribution!"

The deaf old woman, her face grim, tried to continue her sophistry, but Zhang Sheng waved her hand to interrupt her.

"It's no use in you refusing to plead guilty. This hush money agreement and He Daqing's confession are enough to convict you."

"If he has a good attitude in admitting his guilt, takes the initiative to return the 4000 million yuan he obtained through extortion... well, that is, 4000 yuan, and also returns the intercepted and fraudulently obtained letters and money, the court will consider giving him a lighter sentence. Otherwise, it will start at ten years, and it is possible that he will be sentenced to twenty years."

As soon as he finished speaking, the deaf old woman Yi Zhonghai shivered, her legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground.

Yi Zhonghai stammered, "I... this... I really was just keeping the rainwater safe for Sha Zhu..."

"custody?"

Last night, Sha Zhu and his sister were brought back by Xie Dabiao to give statements. Wang Yue saw how thin He Yushui was, how much she hated He Daqing, and also heard about the kind of life He Yushui had lived since she was seven years old.

With no parents and an older brother who was a scoundrel, no one cared about him or paid him any attention. He was helpless and his cries for help went unanswered.

The worst years were the difficult ones; people were so hungry they had to scavenge for food.

Yi Zhonghai, that deaf old woman, is truly despicable; her insidious and vicious nature is extreme!

"Yi Zhonghai, do you even believe what you're saying? Or do you think we're fools?"

"You mean by 'safekeeping'? You mean just watching He Yushui starve to the point of scavenging for food? Starving to the point of severe malnutrition, unable to even afford menstrual belts?"

Upon hearing this, He Daqing flew into a rage, and several police officers clenched their fists, wanting to beat these two beasts to death.

Yi Zhonghai shrank back, cold sweat beading on his forehead, unsure how to defend himself.

The deaf old woman was ashen-faced and slumped on the ground as if she had lost her soul.

She knew that all her painstaking planning over the years, hoping to live out her old age in peace and comfort, had come to naught.

He will lose his reputation in his later years, suffer disgrace and ruin, and even face imprisonment!

Zhang Sheng had lost patience with arguing with these two beasts and said in a deep voice, "Yi Zhonghai, deaf old woman, I'll ask you one last time, do you plead guilty or not?"

Yi Zhonghai's composure crumbled, and he slumped down, head bowed in despair.

"I confess! I confess!! I'll tell you everything!"

The deaf old woman closed her eyes in despair, tears streaming down her face.

She didn't regret blackmailing and driving He Daqing away; what she regretted was why she signed the hush agreement, and even more so why she wasn't more ruthless and just killed He Yushui.

He Yushui, who was seven or eight years old, was often so hungry that he had trouble walking. He was casually thrown into the cesspool of a public toilet and drowned. Who would suspect them?

One wrong step leads to another! It's too late for regrets!

Zhang Sheng waved his hand and said to Li Yuanlang, "Take him to the interrogation room next door for questioning. Prepare the materials today and transfer them to the procuratorate for prosecution."

"By the way, the post office also sent people to investigate!"

"Yes, Chief."

Li Yuanlang nodded in agreement and led the deaf old woman, Yi Zhonghai, to the interrogation room next door.

……

Courtyard No. 95.

In the west courtyard, at 9:30 in the morning, the little queen got up, yawning as she opened the door and walked out.

Seeing Liu Hao busy in the kitchen, she went up and hugged him from behind, asking sweetly, "Honey, what are we having for lunch today?"

Liu Hao paused for a moment with the cleaver in his hand, then continued chopping the meat.

"Pork dumplings! How many do you want?"

"Just grab something, thirty will do!"

"..."

How did the thirty people come together with the idea of ​​eating something casually?

Liu Hao smiled and said, "Ordinary families really can't afford to raise a little queen!"

"Okay, go wash up, then come help me make dumplings."

"Mmm, give me a kiss, brother!"

Ye Juan used a cutesy, high-pitched voice to coax Liu Hao, a technique she had just learned. She discovered that when she spoke in this tone, which sounded like she was speaking with a cloth shoe between her fingers, Liu Hao would become very gentle and look at her with utter doting eyes.

Liu Hao put down the kitchen knife, turned around and kissed her on the lips, saying softly, "My wife is so good. I'll cook you a big meal tonight."

"Okay, okay, brother is the best in the world, hee hee."

Ye Juan giggled, tiptoed and kissed Liu Hao a few times, then turned and skipped off to wash up.

Looking at Ye Juan's retreating figure, Liu Hao felt a little restless again.

Never mind, let the little queen rest, or she'll break.

Shaking his head to clear his mind, he continued chopping meat.

About ten minutes later, the little queen ran in, excitedly asking, "Honey, was the deaf old lady Yi Zhonghai arrested this morning?"

"Yes, I'll tell you..."

Liu Hao told the little queen everything that Kong Chenghui had told him, plus everything he knew.

The little queen's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief as she exclaimed, "My goodness! Those two old bastards are so despicable!"

"Thirteen years! A full thirteen years! For thirteen years, Sha Zhu and He Yushui hated He Daqing. Is this something a human being would do?"

"He Daqing is no good either. He can't even fake his own background. He could have made himself a working-class person and no one would have suspected anything. Instead, he changed himself to a third-generation farmer."

"And Grandpa Shazhu is a capitalist? Hahaha, Shazhu is so lucky, he actually has a capitalist grandfather!"

The little queen was deeply shocked; the demons and monsters in the courtyard were even more evil, insidious, and vicious than she had imagined.

Will Yi Zhonghai, the deaf elderly woman, be sentenced to prison?

"Absolutely! Extortion, fraud, embezzlement... multiple crimes combined, Yi Zhonghai will face at least seven years in prison. The deaf old woman, due to her advanced age, will be given leniency, but it will still be at least three years!"

Liu Hao thinks the laws of this era are pretty good. Elderly scumbags over seventy years old who commit crimes will be sentenced according to the law. There is no age exemption. The sentencing may be lenient due to their advanced age, but it does not necessarily exempt them from punishment.

Yi Zhonghai, the deaf old lady, can go to jail to live out her retirement. The state will take care of them, and someone will cook two meals a day for them!

How wonderful!
