Siheyuan: I am the seventh uncle of Banggen

"It's very satisfying, spicy and numbing, and the fish tastes fresh, fragrant and tender. This is a dish that can be passed down," said He Yuzhu.

"Delicious, very delicious" is Jia Dongxu's evaluation.

"There are four more, make two more," Zhang Dabao said to He Yuzhu, and handed the kitchen to He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu.

"Da Biao, are you at home? Some relatives are coming to your house." The third aunt came with Qiao Yongqian and Huang Ruofan.

"Thank you, Auntie. I'm making a new dish with Dongxu and Zhuzi. I'll serve you a bowl and let Teacher Yan comment on it." Zhang Dabao served Yang Ruihua a bowl of boiled fish. Yang Ruihua went back happily and returned the bowl soon.

"Cousin, sister-in-law, how come you have time to come here today? It's just the right time for me to try a new dish." Without waiting for them to say anything, Zhang Dabao went to the kitchen, got two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks, and served each of them a bowl of boiled fish.

"Da Biao, what kind of dish is this?" Qiao Yongqian asked when he saw that there were vegetables, fish and peppers in it.

"Sister-in-law, the food is a bit spicy," Zhang Dabao reminded again, motioning his cousin to try it.

"Not bad, this is a new dish, made by your chef husband?" Qiao Yongqian ate a bowl and still felt unsatisfied.

"As long as it tastes good, it's fine. I'll try it today. There are four fish left. You can bring one back to your aunt later. Did you guys come to see me?" Zhang Dabao asked his cousin.

"Dabao, someone wants to investigate you today. My uncle told me," Huang Ruofan said. Zhang Dabao knew that his uncle was Zhang Weihua from the District Commission for Discipline Inspection.

"Investigate me? Haven't you already investigated me?" Zhang Dabao didn't quite understand what Huang Ruofan meant.

"Last time someone reported you, this time they want to punish you. They wanted to go to the steel mill, but were scolded by Director Yang and Director Li. They then went to the district disciplinary committee, but my uncle didn't agree," Huang Ruofan explained.

"Sister-in-law, I understand. I have offended someone, and they want to deal with me through official means? Is that what you mean?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"Yes, he is the second son of Director Cui of the District Planning Bureau. He stirs up trouble in the name of his father every day. Others feel embarrassed to scold him because of Director Cui Xin's face, but he just doesn't know his place," said Huang Ruofan.

"Director Cui Xin?" Zhang Dabiao thought for a moment and asked Huang Ruofan, "His second son is called Cui Zhong? He looks like a little pig, with pimples all over his face?"

"Do you know him?" Huang Ruofan asked.

"I know him, there's a small misunderstanding. I'll find time to explain it. How did you get here, cousin?" Zhang Dabao asked Qiao Yongqian.

"I drove here. Ruofan is looking for me, and it's your business. How can I not come quickly?" Qiao Yongqian said.

"Wait a minute, please give one more bowl to Uncle Weihua. You two can eat here today," said Zhang Dabao.

"How do we have time? We are going to go see a movie. Thank you Da Biao for the TV," said Qiao Yongqian.

"Okay then, you give this pot to your aunt, and the one inside to Uncle Weihua. When you get married, I'll ask them to come to your house and cook. They're professional Sichuan chefs," said Zhang Dabia.

"That's great, your sister-in-law's hometown is Chongqing," said Qiao Yongqian.

"This pot is ready," He Yuzhu brought out the dish.

"Brother Zhuzi, this is my cousin," Zhang Dabao introduced the two men to each other.

"I've met you once, when we were eating whole donkey. Cousin, please stay for dinner today," said He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, I have something to do today, so I want to take away two pots of the dishes you cooked. I'll come back in two days and we'll have a drink together," said Qiao Yongqian.

"I'll have another one. I've tasted this one," said He Yuzhu.

"We are all brothers, don't be polite." Qiao Yongqian held a basin and Zhang Dabao held another basin, put them in Qiao Yongqian's car, and sent the two away.

Cui Zhong, this bastard, wanted to cause trouble. I didn't want to be like him, but he just didn't know how to live or die. These people are the most ignorant. He only knows that his father is powerful. He has no respect for the law and others. His family can't control him, so he will keep doing it until he kills himself. And these people have no bottom line in doing things. For the sake of their so-called face, they can do anything. Zhang Dabao doesn't want to leave a hidden danger for himself and the people around him.

I am a Taoist, and what I am talking about is fighting against the heavens, the earth, and people. Isn't practicing Taoism about changing fate? If I can't follow my heart, what's the point of practicing Taoism? After figuring this out, Zhang Dabiao's aura suddenly burst out, and then quickly retracted.

Cui Zhong, you are dead.

When they returned to the backyard, He Yuzhu had already brought the basins from his house, because there were two basins in Zhang Dabao's kitchen that were taken away by Qiao Yongqian.

"I have new basins in my room. I went to get them." Zhang Dabao went to the inner room and took out four new enamel basins from the space.

"Seventh Uncle, why does your family prepare so many basins? Is it just for eating fish?" Jia Dongxu asked.

"This is a gift prepared for his wedding. I heard that Liu Guangqi is getting married soon. We are from the same courtyard. Wouldn't it be nice to give him two basins as a wedding gift? If he is lucky, give him two too," Zhang Dabao explained.

"Two basins are too many. One basin costs more than one yuan. When I got married, Lao Liu only gave me fifty cents. Liu Haizhong is not a decent person either. When we were eating donkey, he was still looking for trouble," said Jia Dongxu.

"Liu Haizhong is Liu Haizhong, and Liu Guangqi is Liu Guangqi. We can't treat them the same. If they are all the same as Liu Haizhong, will they still be friends? Then I'll listen to you. When Liu Guangqi gets married, Xin and I will give each of them a basin. If there is no basin, we will give one dollar. Call Guangtian and Guangfu later, and we will eat fish together," said Zhang Dabao.

"Guangtian and Guangfu are okay. When Uncle Xinsheng was injured, they remembered to send a big goose. But that bastard Liu Haizhong sent nothing. My master was hospitalized twice and he didn't send anything to visit him. He's even worse than Yan Laokou." Jia Dongxu is very dissatisfied with Liu Haizhong now.

"Seventh uncle, I don't know how my master is living there. It's been such a long time, but he hasn't written to me." Jia Dongxu said with a choked voice, probably because he was thinking of the days when he lived with Yi Zhonghai day and night.

Yi Zhonghai is now living a very good life in the southwest. He is an eighth-level worker, the only one in the factory. The factory director and employees all respect him very much. Even though he has a bad leg and has to go to work in a wheelchair every day, it does not affect the factory's welcome to him at all. Not only is his work going well, but his life is also going well. He has adopted two children. As soon as he gets home, the two children call him "Dad" and Yi Zhonghai's heart almost melts. He has never felt such family happiness before. Liu Cuiping is also very happy. She doesn't have to live in fear every day. She can look at the two children, and no one here knows their background. They all think that the two children are their own. Although she is not used to the diet, her life is happier.

Now Yi Zhonghai and the other person had no time to think about Jia Dongxu, nor did they want to contact anyone in the capital anymore, so it was impossible for them to write a letter to Jia Dongxu.

Chapter 216 Murder Case

The backyard of No. 95 Courtyard became lively again in the evening. In fact, people who are not used to spicy food should not eat too much boiled fish. It feels great when eating and even better when defecating.

"This is so delicious, I feel like I can eat another bowl," Bang Geng said after eating three big bowls in a row.

"Get lost! How can you bear to eat so much at night? What if you feel uncomfortable at night?" Jia Dongxu stopped Bang Geng who wanted to continue eating.

"Banggeng, your father is right. It's not good to eat too much. It makes you feel uncomfortable." It was rare for Zhang Cuihua to agree with her son.

"But it's so delicious," said Bang Geng.

"Even if it tastes good, you can't eat it. I've learned how to do it. The last pot was made by me. I'll make it for you when you want to eat it," Jia Dongxu said proudly.

"Dongxu, you are so awesome," Zhang Lianhua praised her nephew again.

"You can do it, but you can't catch fish?" Banggeng's words hurt Jia Dongxu again.

"Get out!" Jia Dongxu was angry.

Qin Jingru has broadened her horizons since coming to the capital. She didn't eat much fish at home. She had never heard of sweet and sour fish or boiled fish, let alone eating fish with rice. She ate three bowls of rice tonight and she felt the rice was stuck in her throat.

People say that after seeing prosperity, it is hard to stick to poverty. This is the fact. After eating all kinds of delicious food, it is always hard to swallow steamed bread again. Who would want to live a hard life again after enjoying a good life? So Qin Jingru now has only one wish in her heart, that is to stay in the capital, preferably to marry to No. 95 Courtyard, so that she can have delicious food every day as a relative of the Jia family.

But she is still too young, she is only fifteen years old this year.

Today, the No. 95 courtyard became lively again in the second half of the night. Banggeng went to the toilet three times in a row, Lou Xiaoe went twice, Xu Damao went once, Jia Dongxu also went twice, and Qin Jingru also went to the toilet three times.

The gate of Yard No. 95 had been closed by Yan Bugui, so Zhang Dabao was busy in the bathroom all night, causing the big goose raised by Huang Xinsheng to keep calling, which seriously affected Zhang Dabao's rest. If he had known that there would be such a result, he would definitely limit the amount for everyone, one bowl per person, so that everyone would not have to go to the bathroom.

"Banggeng, what's wrong?" After Zhang Dabao got up, he saw Banggeng sitting at the door, looking listless.

"Seventh Uncle, my butt hurts so much," said Banggeng.

"Who made you so useless? You can't eat spicy food. Why do you eat so much?" Jia Dongxu scolded his son loudly.

"Don't talk about the jokes. It seems that the food is a bit spicy. Dongxu, ask your aunt to cook some rice porridge and add more sugar. You will feel much better after eating a bowl of it," Zhang Dabao said to Jia Dongxu.

"Sister-in-law and brother Damao, come over and have some rice porridge. Second sister put sugar in it. It will help you feel better." Zhang Dabao saw Lou Xiaoe who was also sitting at the door.

"Dabao, this fish is really delicious, but I can't stand it," Xu Damao shouted, and then he came to Zhang Dabao's door and sat on a stool.

"This is Sichuan cuisine. We are not used to it. Please eat less next time you eat it," said Zhang Dabao.

"It's not easy. Once you start eating this dish, you can't stop," said Xu Damao with a wry smile.

"There's nothing we can do about it. If you like to eat it, you have to suffer. It will be fine once you get used to it." Zhang Dabao smiled, but Lou Xiaoe rolled her eyes at him.

After everyone ate the rice porridge with sugar, the burning sensation felt much better, and those who were working or going to school all left.

"Sister-in-law, can I give you a massage?" Zhang Dabao asked Lou Xiaoe who was still sitting at the door of Xu's house.

"Go to hell, what are you thinking? Do you think I don't know?" Lou Xiao'e was so scared that she hurried home. What a lovely guy.

Zhang Dabao also had something to do today, he was going to look for Cui Zhong. His two crows were arranged to stay at the district government staff quarters last night. Since they didn't know where Cui Zhong's home was, they arranged a crow at the south gate and the east gate of the staff quarters, and as long as they found Cui Zhong, they would tell Zhang Dabao.

After coming out of No. 95 Yard, Zhang Dabao parked his car in a space in a small forest, changed his clothes, and put on makeup. Now he has become a government worker in his forties, carrying a briefcase and walking on the road.

Cui Zhong left the family compound at nine in the morning and came to the Dongcheng District Supply and Marketing Cooperative. He should be working here. Cui Zhong sat here until twelve o'clock in the morning. He met two young men at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative and went to a small restaurant. After lunch, he went to stroll in the park until it was almost dark.

The three of them went to the restaurant again to eat and drink, and then they came to the entrance of the cinema, apparently to watch a movie.

Zhang Dabao also arrived at the cinema entrance at this time. It was seven o'clock in the evening and it was not too dark yet. The movie should not start yet. Many young people were waiting at the cinema entrance, both men and women, in groups of three or five, talking in a group.

Zhang Dabao suddenly saw an acquaintance, the young man who arranged for Gu Tao to scam Jia Dongxu. He was Liu Qingchao's nephew Lao Wu. At this time, Zhang Dabao had an idea.

Lao Wu was with the two young men. They had all appeared in Liu Qingchao's yard. None of those who plotted against Lin Hua were good people.

Among the three of them, one of them knew Cui Zhong and greeted him from a distance. At this time, Lao Wu and the other two walked towards the entrance of the cinema. When passing by Cui Zhong, Zhang Dabao swung the flying sword in his hand and threw three swords. Cui Zhong's hand was also moving forward. His two accomplices did not see Cui Zhong's movements clearly, but Lao Wu and the other two fell down with bleeding chests. At this time, the sword was already in Cui Zhong's hand, and blood was flowing down from the tip of the sword.

"Ah..." Someone discovered the blood on the ground and screamed in fright.

Cui Zhong didn't understand why these people were shouting, so he looked up quickly and the sword in his hand fell to the ground with a thud. "Brother Zhong, why is this happening?" one of his companions asked Cui Zhong.

"No reason, whose thing is this?" Cui Zhong pointed at the sword on the ground and picked it up again.

His two accomplices were terrified and didn't understand why Cui Zhong suddenly attacked and killed people, but he had a sword in his hand and they were very scared, fearing that he would stab them, so they ran away without looking back.

Cui Zhong thought something had happened, so he chased after the two men. The two men became even more frightened and ran faster.

At this time, the two security guards of the cinema also came over and saw Cui Zhong chasing someone with a sword. The two men took up their weapons and chased after him.

Cui Zhong was a fat man and was caught by the security guard after he ran a few steps. Since a murder had occurred, Cui Zhong was sent to the police station.

Chapter 217 Cui Zhong collapsed

"Why are you arresting me? Let me go immediately. Do you know who my father is?" Cui Zhong was knocked down by two people. His new clothes were all dirty. He was very angry.

"Who do we care who your father is? You're so brave, you dare to kill someone in public." A security guard suppressed Cui Zhong tightly, and another security guard hit Cui Zhong's hand holding the sword twice with the iron rod in his hand. After feeling the pain, Cui Zhong let go of the sword. The security guard knew that this was a murder weapon and did not dare to use his hand. He asked the cinema staff who followed behind to call the police quickly.

Killing three people in public at once is a major case no matter where it happens. The police quickly arrived at the scene, took away the physical evidence, and found the people in front of the cinema square for investigation. Cui Zhong's two companions also came back and were taken to the police station to take statements.

"Murder? Not me? I have never killed anyone." No matter how stupid Cui Zhong was, he knew that it was not okay to kill someone in public, so he simply denied the murder.

"Whose sword is it?" the police officer asked again.

"I picked it up from the ground," said Cui Zhong.

"I picked it up. There were so many people in the square and no one saw it, but you saw it. Who would believe it? Cui Zhong, no one can save you now, so tell the truth." The police officer persuaded Cui Zhong.

"It really wasn't me, I can swear to God." Cui Zhong now realized the seriousness of the matter.

"We, the police, focus on evidence when handling cases. We don't care about what God does." The police laughed out of anger. They didn't expect that Chief Cui Xin, such a smart man, would have such a stupid son.

Fifteen people were questioned at the scene and they could all prove that it was Cui Zhong who did it. His two companions could prove it even better. Of course, neither of them knew where he got the sword from.

"Why are we still chasing Wu Zhi and Pan Hui?" the police asked again.
