Panicked, Qin Huairu quickly looked up at Sha Zhu for help.
Her eyes, which were already sparkling with starlight, now seemed to be the entire Milky Way crashing down on Sha Zhu.
Make him feel hot-blooded and excited, so that he can't help but stand up and say, "Alright! I stole Xu Damao's chicken, I roasted it, and I treated Sister Qin's three kids to it!"
"Finally admitting it?" Yan Bugui said to Shazhu with a sinister look, "That's not right. You said you roasted it, so what's with the chicken stewing on your stove?"
"You four-eyed bastard, one of your glasses is even crippled! Go get your glasses! Can't you even tell the difference between a whole chicken and half a chicken?!"
Yan Bugui was so angry he almost choked, pointing at Sha Zhu like he had Parkinson's: "You! You, Sha Zhu! I'll never forgive you!"
"Stand up if you want, go play somewhere else!"
Listen to this, go play. Oh dear, what was Yi Zhonghai saying about Sha Zhu again? His greatest virtue is his filial piety and respect for his elders; Yan Bugui is the third uncle in this courtyard, is he considered his elder?
Liu Haizhong slammed his teacup onto the table: "Shazhu! It's good that you admitted it. Everyone heard it, right? There's a thief in our courtyard, a big thief. What should we do?"
The courtyard, which had previously resembled a vegetable market, instantly fell silent again.
Sha Zhu glanced disdainfully at Liu Haizhong, then scanned the others in the yard with his dead fish eyes.
When they got to Fatty's place, the two of them went head-to-head, neither willing to give an inch.
The fat man shouted, "We have to deal with either Sha Zhu or Bang Geng, right? What, is stealing chickens legal now?!"
The fat man's shout completely woke up Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e.
He pointed at Sha Zhu and said, "Pay up!" Lou Xiao'e chimed in, "That's right, Sha Zhu, you owe us our chickens!"
These two teammates are such terrible! They made the fat guy suddenly feel like leaving the group chat...
Yan Bugui asked Xu Damao, "How much do you plan to make him compensate you?"
Lou Xiao'e blurted out, "Two pieces!"
Two pieces! This silly moth! Not only is Xu Damao anxious, but even Fatty wants to give her a couple of hard slaps on the butt!
After working so hard for so long, all I got was two pieces? That's it?
He didn't want to listen to Sha Zhu spewing nonsense, saying that Lou Xiao'e couldn't lay eggs; and Lou Xiao'e really couldn't curse, so when pushed to the limit, all she could say was, "Sha Zhu, you bastard!"
The fat man simply led Yu Li and Chen Yan back home.
As soon as they got back inside, Chen Yan grabbed Yu Li and said, "My God, you're so brave!"
Yu Li was terrified at this point, but she seemed more embarrassed, her face flushed and she was trembling like a leaf.
The fat man pulled her down to sit, poured her a glass of water, and then said to Yu Li and Chen Yan, "Look at how Sha Zhu looked just now, didn't he look like a dog?"
Chen Yan chuckled: "It's that kind of 'simp' you were talking about!"
Yu Li laughed so hard she almost fell over, and then she saw the fat man give her a meaningful look.
Yu Li suddenly panicked again, stood up and stammered, "I'll go boil water for us to wash our feet."
Chen Yan pressed her back down: "I'll go instead, you keep your little brother company."
Once outside, she snorted angrily, "They were flirting with each other right in front of me, how annoying!"
"..."
As soon as Chen Yan stepped out, the fat man grabbed Yu Li, even sounding somewhat exasperated: "No! Did you hear me!"
"What do you mean you can't?"
The fat man, panting, said, "You're not allowed to block my way!"
Yu Li kissed him on the initiative and said deliberately, "Didn't you say that when you marry a wife, you should find someone who is completely devoted to you, someone who would be willing to keep watch for you even if you committed a crime? Was my performance today satisfactory?"
Excellent, absolutely excellent!
The fat man picked up Yu Li in a princess carry and carried her into the inner room.
Yu Li hurriedly patted the door: "I haven't washed up yet, it'll be so awkward if Chen Yan comes in!"
"I can't worry about anything else, we're in deep trouble!"
Yu Li kicked her legs wildly: "No way, she can use this joke to make fun of me for a year..."
In the end, the fat man couldn't insist on going his own way, so he could only vent his anger before letting Yu Li go.
That night, the fat man's eyes once again gleamed with the light of a wise man. He pondered some details of the "chicken-stealing contest."
Sha Zhu ultimately compensated Xu Damao 5 yuan, plus half a chicken.
Because of the fish-selling incident last time, the third uncle hated Sha Zhu so much that he was practically trying to kill him.
But this silly Zhu deserves it. He had nothing to do with it, but he had to jump out and be shameless.
Liu Haizhong has won a victory this time. Look at him, hands behind his back, belly sticking out, strutting around like he doesn't even know who he is anymore.
As for the "iron triangle" in the courtyard, they are now all gathered at Yi Zhonghai's home.
Sha Zhu was cursing loudly: "That son of a bitch! He grabbed a child and strangled him to death, is that something a human being would do?"
Yi Zhonghai glared at him: "If Banggeng hadn't gone to steal Xu Damao's chickens, would this have happened?"
After scolding Sha Zhu, he turned to Qin Huairu with a look of exasperation and said, "You need to discipline your child!"
Qin Huairu couldn't stand anyone saying anything bad about her son, Banggeng, and she got anxious: "What do you mean? I already asked, and Banggeng said he found the chicken in the front yard!"
In his haste, he even stopped calling me "Grandpa".
Yi Zhonghai said meaningfully, "He's too good at picking up trash. If he picks up trash from the wrong people tomorrow, I wonder if he'll still be as easy to talk to as Xu Damao."
Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat, and she gritted her teeth, wishing she could curse the fat man's ancestors for eight generations.
She was seething inside, not daring to vent her anger on Yi Zhonghai, but she dared to vent it on Sha Zhu: "Look at the good apprentice you've taught! Even in this state, he's still thinking about marrying that other woman!"
After saying that, he slammed the door and left, leaving Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu staring at each other in bewilderment.
Sha Zhu was still babbling on and on: "Grandpa, think of something! How can we let him be so wronged like this?"
"Did he steal too little from you? Did he steal too little from the other houses in this yard?"
Shazhu exclaimed, as if someone had stepped on his tail: "No way! Bang Geng only steals from me!"
Yi Zhonghai waved his hand wearily, telling him to get lost. Why did Jia Dongxu die so young? This guy is driving him crazy...
Qin Huairu returned to the room, and Jia Zhangshi immediately put down her needlework: "What do you mean?"
"What can I say? You should discipline your grandson!"
Madam Jia slammed her hand on the table: "What nonsense are you talking about? Is our Banggeng that kind of child?"
Qin Huairu laughed and spoke to her mother-in-law in a tone that seemed to say, "Is that so? What do you mean? If it weren't for Sha Zhu taking the blame for her, Fatty would already be leading people to the grove to dig up the leftover chicken heads, feet, and butts!"
