……
Early the next morning, Sha Zhu was kicked out of the house by He Daqing, who asked him to call He Yushui back.
Who knew that as soon as Sha Zhu went out, he ran into He Yushui who was walking to the gate of the courtyard.
"Yushui, why are you back so early?"
"I want to ask you for some living expenses before you start working. Silly brother, please give me five dollars this month. Three dollars is not enough. I need to buy some study materials."
He Yushui said weakly that every time she asked for money, she felt guilty and she never had the confidence to speak.
Moreover, she didn't know whether Sha Zhu had any money, because before, if Sha Zhu had given the money to the Jia family, he would have no money for her, and she would have to borrow money from her classmates.
"Yushui, Dad is back!"
Sha Zhu didn't give the money directly, but talked about another thing.
"Who, who are you talking about?" He Yushui asked in disbelief.
"Our father, He Daqing, he..."
Before Sha Zhu could finish his words, He Yushui had already rushed in.
"Dad, are you back?"
As soon as He Yushui rushed into the middle courtyard, he found He Daqing standing in the middle of the courtyard washing.
"rainwater!"
He Daqing's eyes were filled with tears when he saw He Yushui, and he felt even more distressed when he saw how thin she looked.
"dad!"
He Yushui ran to He Daqing and hugged her father tightly, fearing that this was just a dream.
"Yu Shui, you have suffered, but it's okay. I'm back. I'm here for you and I won't let you suffer any grievances again!" He Daqing patted He Yu Shui's back to comfort her.
Sha Zhu, who followed in, felt like an outsider. The father and daughter had a deep relationship, so why did he become redundant?
"Dad, you are so cruel. You have been gone for more than ten years. You are not at home, and my brother doesn't care about me. You don't know how I have been living these years!"
Seeing He Daqing, He Yushui couldn't help but vent his inner grievances.
"Hey, Yushui, I raised you up, and you are slandering me. When did I stop caring about you? Aren't all your food, clothing and daily expenses paid for by me?"
Sha Zhu was not convinced. He felt that maybe what he did was not perfect, but he was definitely kind enough to his sister.
"Shut up, if Yi Zhonghai didn't want to support you in your old age, why would he hide the money I sent to Yushui?"
He Daqing loudly scolded Sha Zhu, saying that Yi Zhonghai concealed the money he sent to Yu Shui, not because he wanted Sha Zhu to be disappointed with his biological father, so that Sha Zhu could provide for him in the future? Yu Shui was just suffering from an unprovoked disaster.
Chapter 226 He Yushui Returns to the Courtyard 2
"This, I..."
Sha Zhu had nothing to say. Even if he was a fool he could see that Yi Zhonghai concealed all the money given by He Daqing in order to make him break off his relationship with He Daqing. Besides, he was not a fool.
"Dad, did you send me money?" He Yushui asked confusedly.
"Five dollars a month, never stopped, for more than ten years!"
"But I didn't get a penny. My brother doesn't care about me at all. I can only eat coarse food at school and sometimes I have to rely on my classmates for help!" He Yushui said dejectedly.
"It's all Dad's fault. I trusted Yi Zhonghai too much, so I sent the money to him and asked him to pass it on to you. Who would have thought that he would hide everything!"
He Daqing blamed himself for not seeing through Yi Zhonghai's character, causing Yu Shui to suffer.
"Well, Lao He, didn't I explain yesterday that it was reserved for Yu Shui as a dowry? Why are you talking nonsense again?"
Yi Zhonghai came out and complained about He Daqing.
"You're keeping it for my dowry? You've cared a lot for my brother over the years, but have you ever cared for me even once? You're keeping it for my dowry, don't you feel guilty about it?"
He Yushui suddenly said to Yi Zhonghai in a heart-wrenching voice: "I eat only coarse food at school every day. I would starve to death without my classmates' help. Why did you take the money my father sent me without telling me?"
He Yushui's words left Yi Zhonghai speechless. He indeed only cared about Sha Zhu and had never cared about He Yushui.
Lin Fan and Fang Meng watched the fun from the sidelines with great interest.
"Yushui, the uncle has good intentions. Isn't he afraid that you will spend money lavishly? Don't misunderstand him!"
Hearing He Yushui's loud crying, everyone in the yard came over to watch the fun, and Jia Zhang was no exception.
As Jia Zhang's current master, of course Jia Zhang has to speak for Yi Zhonghai.
She could also guess that Yi Zhonghai did this out of selfish motives, but she had to speak up for Yi Zhonghai.
Otherwise, if Yi Zhonghai became disgraced and hid at home, too embarrassed to see anyone, what would she do? Who would she find to teach her locksmithing?
"Mrs. Jia Zhang? You are such a shameless old hag, how dare you butt in? All the money my brother brought back went into your family, and all his money was used to subsidize your family. Your Jia family has owed me the same injustice as Yi Zhonghai. I haven't even scolded you yet, and you still have the nerve to come up and speak for Yi Zhonghai?"
Maybe it was He Daqing's return that gave He Yushui the confidence, or maybe it was because He Yushui had been accumulating resentment for too long that he could no longer suppress it.
After He Yushui scolded Yi Zhonghai, he scolded Jia Zhangshi and went crazy.
"Brother Lin Fan, do you know this He Yushui? She sounds quite pitiful!"
"I just moved here not long ago, and He Yushui rarely comes back. She basically lives on campus, so I haven't seen her yet. Meng'er, are you being too sympathetic again? Although she is indeed quite pitiful, it has nothing to do with us. She still has her father and her brother!"
Lin Fan touched Fang Meng's little head and knew that her sympathy was overflowing again.
Fortunately, she was very obedient. Even if she felt sympathetic occasionally, she would not say anything as long as Lin Fan disagreed.
"You're right, but this idiot doesn't even care about his own sister. It's really abominable!"
Fang Meng nodded. Didn’t He Yushui’s father come back to help her?
But when she thought of Sha Zhu, she was a little speechless. Not only did he try to please the Jia family, but he even ignored his own sister. It was really weird.
"So what do you want? Do you want me to pay you money?" Yi Zhonghai said helplessly.
"Money, money, money, is all you care about money? Is the money my father sent me just the living expenses? That is the love my father gave me for more than ten years, but you destroyed it. I have always misunderstood that my father is heartless and doesn't care about me!" He Yushui said angrily.
"Here we go again, what's going on?"
Yan Bugui rushed over upon hearing the noise, but he didn't know how to deal with the matter.
"He Daqing, tell me, what do you want? What do you want Lao Yi to do so that you can forgive him!"
Yan Bugui couldn't figure out how to solve the problem himself, so he could only hand it over to He Daqing.
"I don't want to do anything. Now that I'm back, I'll naturally take care of my child. Just treat it as if I was blind and made the wrong choice. Let's just forget about it. However, I don't agree with Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu becoming godparents, so we can't have the family celebration that was originally scheduled for Sunday!"
He Daqing glanced at the embarrassed Yi Zhonghai and did not make any requests. He only approved of Sha Zhu's recognition as his godchild.
"Lao He, you can't do this. I really treat Zhuzi as my own child. I have been very sincere to him over the years. We have feelings for each other. Why don't you agree to our recognition as godchildren?"
Yi Zhonghai's face changed drastically. Although he had been mentally prepared, when He Daqing really brought up this matter, he still found it difficult to accept it.
"My dad is right about this matter, let's just leave it at that!"
Before He Daqing could say anything, Sha Zhu stood up and spoke to Yi Zhonghai, and returned all the money and bills that the old lady had given her.
"Zhuzi, you..."
Yi Zhonghai's doing such a thing made Auntie feel a little ashamed. Seeing Sha Zhu becoming estranged from them, Auntie also felt very uncomfortable. She was not as purposeful as Yi Zhonghai. She really treated Sha Zhu as her own child.
But now that things have turned out like this, it's too late for her to say anything.
As Sha Zhu returned the money for the family reunion banquet to the aunt, the relationship between the two families reached a freezing point, and they probably won't have much interaction in the future.
Yan Bugui quickly winked at Xu Damao who had come running over, and said that the family recognition banquet was over, so you should hurry up and let He Daqing set the wine.
"Uncle He, the neighbors in the compound have been waiting for this family reunion banquet for a long time. If it is cancelled, everyone will be disappointed. Besides, your return to the courtyard to reunite with your family is also a happy event. How about you hold a banquet and treat everyone to a feast?"
Xu Damao had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand up to persuade He Daqing.
"What you said makes sense. So let's do this. When I come back on Sunday, I'll treat all the men in the hospital to a meal. Let's have fun together!"
He Daqing thought about it and nodded. He hadn't been back for so many years, so it was necessary to get closer to the neighbors. It wouldn't be a big deal to treat them to a banquet.
"Old He, you are still the best. You are so generous. You haven't changed in all these years!"
He Daqing agreed to hold a banquet. Everyone in the compound was smiling, and Yan Bugui was even more happy to flatter him.
In fact, Yan Bugui was talking nonsense. He Daqing was smarter than a ghost. He was very stingy when he was in Siheyuan. This was the first time they could take advantage of He Daqing.
He Daqing didn't take it seriously. It was just a banquet. Now that he was back, he had a long life ahead of him and he had plenty of opportunities to take advantage of the situation.
Chapter 227 He Yushui's Transformation
He Daqing no longer pursued the past, which meant that the matter was settled.
Yi Zhonghai felt both relieved and lost, which made him feel empty inside.
He stood there in silence for a long time, and finally left with a sigh.
Afterwards, everyone in the yard dispersed, some went to wash up, and some went to work.
Lin Fan and Fang Meng washed up and returned home. Fang Meng went to make breakfast while Lin Fan checked the emotional value he gained yesterday.
Because Lin Fan has been less active recently, he only gained 59863 emotion points yesterday.
But Lin Fan didn't mind. He didn't have anything he wanted to buy for the time being, and he couldn't afford what he really wanted to buy, so he didn't need to worry too much.
Then Lin Fan checked the five items that were refreshed today.
The first item was the Pangu Axe which I hadn’t seen for a long time. It was worth one and had an unknown number of zeros after it. The system didn’t even want me to buy it. Even if I did nothing every day and just tried my best to collect emotion points, I would not be able to collect all these emotion points by the time I died.
The second item is Shenbao, which is worth 100 emotional points. Isn't this the thing that Lv Ziqiao said, one bottle can refresh your mind, two bottles can make you never tired, and three bottles can make you immortal? System, you are still selling fake medicine, which is a bit too much.
The third item is the same suit as Lu Ziqiao, which is worth 100 emotional points. Isn't this just a suit? But Lu Ziqiao's suit is really colorful, so I bought it.
The fourth item is Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals, which is worth one point of emotion. Haha, does the system look down on Lü Buwei so much? What? Or Lü Ziqiao's? Then I can understand why it is only sold for one point of emotion.
The fifth item is fireworks, one ton is worth one thousand emotion points. OK, I'll buy it, but if I just wait until the New Year to set off the fireworks, how many years will it take me to do that?
It’s another day without any gain. Never mind. The system is just used to assist your life. There’s no need to ask for too much. Enjoying life is what you should do.
After figuring it out, Lin Fan went to the kitchen to help Fang Meng make breakfast.
When Lin Fan and Fang Meng finished breakfast and were about to go to work, He Yushui came running over.
"Are you the new neighbors who moved into the yard? Your name is Lin Fan, and your uncle is Lin Dongliang?"
