Knowing He Yushui's identity, the postman did not hide anything from her.
"Your father sent you child support for several years, but the money was all collected by Yi Zhonghai and his wife. Yi Zhonghai came to our post office to collect the money with a certificate from the neighborhood committee. He's been collecting it for six or seven years."
"The certificate seems to say that you went to another place and that Yi Zhonghai is your relative. So Yi Zhonghai will lead you there and then hand the money to you. As for the specifics, we'll have to go back to the bureau to find out. Usually, they keep a copy of these kinds of things."
"The reason I remember it so clearly is that the money wasn't received by you personally. We have to remember these things clearly, otherwise it's easy to make a mess of things."
Upon hearing the postman's words, He Yushui plopped down on the ground. He Yushui wasn't a child anymore; she naturally knew there were many things she didn't know. For example, where did Yi Zhonghai's certificate come from? And who wrote the certificate for Yi Zhonghai?
"Comrade, may I ask where you live? I'd like to bring my brother to visit you later. We haven't left Beijing all these years. If it weren't for our neighbor discovering this today, we'd probably be kept in the dark our whole lives."
“Miss, I usually get off work around 5:30. I’m at the post office during working hours, and I only go home after get off work. You can come to the post office to find me during working hours. If you’ve finished work, come to No. 31, Guaizi Hutong, Chaoyang Street to find me.”
He Yushui memorized the address and immediately pushed her bicycle to find Sha Zhu. As soon as she saw Sha Zhu, she hugged him and started crying.
Sha Zhu thought his sister had been bullied. He immediately put down what he was holding.
"Rain, tell me right now who bullied you, and I'll beat them up right now."
"Brother, we were wrong, we were all wrong! I feel like we were being played like fools."
Sha Zhu was completely confused by He Yushui's words.
"Rain, tell me quickly what happened? You're talking nonsense, it's confusing me."
Hearing her brother's words, He Yushui wiped away her tears. With an angry expression, she recounted the events of the day to Sha Zhu.
“Brother, Dad didn’t abandon us. He sends us child support every month. It’s just that Yi Zhonghai, that bastard, embezzled all of it.”
"I don't know what methods that bastard Yi Zhonghai used? He actually got a fake certificate from the neighborhood office, saying that we went to another place and that he embezzled all our child support."
"Even those five cornbread buns from back then were a lie. We were originally supposed to have five steamed buns, but Qin Huairu replaced them with five cornbread buns. The grain wasn't given to us by Qin Huairu either, but by Uncle Wei and Aunt Wei."
"Back then, Qin Huairu asked the Wei family for half a steamer of steamed buns because she didn't have enough breast milk. Uncle Wei saw how pitiful we were and told Qin Huairu to take five steamed buns to us. But who knew that Qin Huairu would replace the steamed buns with cornbread?"
Upon hearing his sister's words, Shazhu was stunned, as if struck by lightning, and stood there unable to accept the fact.
Sha Zhu wasn't stupid; it was just that Yi Zhonghai and his men were more shrewd. The essence of the honey trap wasn't the beauty herself, and what made a hero unable to resist the allure of a beautiful woman was the camaraderie of the past. It was that care shown to you when everyone else avoided you.
Qin Huairu's plan wasn't particularly clever. It was just that Sha Zhu couldn't bear to expose her, because Qin Huairu had always been the object of his affections.
Sha Zhu now had a direct understanding of Yi Zhonghai's character.
“Rain, how did you find out about this? Tell me the whole story from beginning to end.”
"Isn't there a blind date for you tomorrow? So I went out early this morning and bought a lot of things. As soon as I got back, Brother Weihua stopped me."
“At first I thought he had something else to talk to me about. But who knew that when he found me he saw the postman delivering our mail today. But our mail was taken by Huang Xiaojuan. And Yi Zhonghai and Huang Xiaojuan have been taking it for many years.”
"During the conversation, I learned that back then, Uncle Wei and the others saw that we were starving. They had Qin Huairu bring us five steamed buns. In order to investigate whether what Brother Wei Hua said was true, I spent a lot of time looking for that postman."
"I only found out the whole story from the postman. Dad not only sent us child support, but also wrote us a lot of letters. If you don't believe me, you can find that postman now; I've already written down his address."
Hearing He Yushui's words, Sha Zhu lost all interest in doing anything else. After exchanging a few words with the others, he left with He Yushui. To investigate the matter thoroughly, Sha Zhu took his sister to the post office and found the postman. They also found the original document at the post office.
Since the child support issue is true, then Qin Huairu's matter should also be true. But to prove it's true, Sha Zhu returned to the courtyard house with tears in his eyes.
Upon returning to the courtyard house, he took He Yushui to Wei Hua's house.
"Weihua, thank you for letting me know about the child support issue. Could you please tell me again about the five cornbread buns you gave me back then? It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this matter is too important to me."
“I understand how you feel. But you might not believe what I say. You can have Qin Huairu tell you the truth.”
“You must know the relationship between the Jia family and Yi Zhonghai. I don’t believe that Yi Zhonghai isn’t involved in this matter. You can threaten Yi Zhonghai and the others with the issue of child support to force them to confess everything.”
"Furthermore, I have several questions in my mind, which you can ask Yi Zhonghai to answer for you. Who would abandon their child for a widow? He Daqing actually sent you child support, so why is he avoiding you?"
"If you want to know the specifics, you might as well try to trick Yi Zhonghai. As for how you want to deal with Yi Zhonghai, that's a matter for you and your brother."
Hearing Wei Hua's words, Sha Zhu completely believed him. The thought of the four years of misery Yi Zhonghai had caused him drove Sha Zhu straight to the Central Court. Upon arriving at Yi Zhonghai's house, he kicked open the door.
Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to lose his temper, Sha Zhu's fist landed on Yi Zhonghai's head. After a few punches, Sha Zhu grabbed Yi Zhonghai's clothes and slammed him to the ground.
Seeing that Sha Zhu dared to hit her husband, Huang Xiaojuan immediately rushed over. Sha Zhu, still furious, showed no mercy. Dodging her claws, he slapped her more than a dozen times. Then he kicked her into the yard.
Thinking of Yi Zhonghai's actions, Sha Zhu grabbed a stool and smashed it directly at Yi Zhonghai. Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was still trying to run away, Sha Zhu immediately hit Yi Zhonghai's legs several times.
If it weren't for wanting Yi Zhonghai to reveal what happened back then, Sha Zhu would have beaten Yi Zhonghai to death on the spot. He dragged the constantly vomiting blood Yi Zhonghai and threw him next to Huang Xiaojuan.
Such a big thing happened in the courtyard. The people from the courtyard had already gathered around. Everyone wanted to know what had happened.
Qin Huairu knew how important Yi Zhonghai was to the Jia family. She immediately went to stand in front of Sha Zhu and protected Yi Zhonghai.
"Zhu Zi, what's wrong with you? Why did you beat Grandpa Yi like this? Do you know you're breaking the law? Kneel down and apologize to Grandpa Yi right now. Then Sister Qin will plead for you."
But Qin Huairu was met with several slaps in return. After slapping her a few times, Sha Zhu was still not satisfied and kicked Qin Huairu a meter or two away.
This sudden turn of events not only stunned Qin Huairu, but also left Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu somewhat bewildered. Even the people in the courtyard didn't know why Sha Zhu would attack Qin Huairu.
In the past, no matter what Qin Huairu said, Sha Zhu would never argue back. Even if Qin Huairu's words were a bit excessive, Sha Zhu would usually do as she said.
"Qin Huairu, you're incredibly cunning! I never imagined you'd scheme against me for five whole years. I've suffered quite a bit because of you these past five years."
"Today I demand an explanation from you. If you don't clarify what happened back then, I'll kill Yi Zhonghai today. Even if the law can't bring Yi Zhonghai to justice, I'll still beat him to a pulp today."
"Yi Zhonghai, tell me everything that happened back then. If you dare to hide anything, I'll have no choice but to call the police."
"Why did He Daqing leave back then? Why didn't he see us when I, He Yushui, went to Baoding? How much child support have you received from us in the past six years? Why did you, the Jia family, and Qin Huairu scheme against me? If you dare to hide anything, I will definitely report you to the police."
Hearing Sha Zhu's words, everyone in the courtyard became completely interested. Even though Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were no longer the elders, they immediately brought over several tables. Everyone sat on stools and watched Yi Zhonghai. They all wanted to know what Sha Zhu was talking about.
