Siheyuan: You are forcing me to be reborn, right?

Chapter 103: Rat poison poisons stick stems to death

"I don't understand. I just had nothing to do and read ancient books." Mr. Cao came to He Yuzhu with dried persimmons in his hand.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but become curious when he saw that the dried persimmons in the old man's hand were almost the same size as the ones last time.

A piece of this kind of dried persimmon can be sold for 800 yuan at Wangfujing Jinye’s. He Yuzhu was very curious about where Mr. Cao got the dried persimmon.

When He Yuzhu thought of this, he actually had a lot of questions that he wanted to ask the old man. He Yuzhu was surprised by the recipe for the imperial dining room given by the old man last time.

The dried persimmons given to him last time were sold to Mr. Jin for 800 yuan. This time the old man took out another bunch of dried persimmons, which greatly aroused He Yuzhu's curiosity.

Thinking about it, the old man was so kind to him because he probably wanted someone to take care of him when he was old. This was an obvious problem. He Yuzhu didn't mind taking care of a super rich old man.

And this old man doesn't have much to do, and he gets straight to the point every time he appears.

In the entire courtyard, there are actually many elderly people, including elderly people living alone, including several without children at home. These people have signed corpse collection agreements with the street office.

In the end, all the family's assets and other assets will be handled by the street.

The old man is very kind to himself and gives himself a piece of dried persimmon every time.

A piece of dried persimmon can be exchanged for 800 yuan, in this era when the monthly income is about [-] yuan.

In fact, He Yuzhu believes that he will be kind to whoever treats him well. This is a very simple truth.

The old man usually doesn't have any hobbies. He likes to turn on the radio that He Yuzhu gave him and listen to operas on it.

Next, there are the things He Yuzhu brought out from the canteen, and He Yuzhu would also ask the old man to come over and eat them together.

The old man was also a down-to-earth person. He didn't do anything and was very generous. He directly pressed the dried persimmons into He Yuzhu's hands.

"The old lady is really pitiful. Get the money and ask them to send her to the hospital. If she continues, she will be gone."

Although He Yuzhu hated the old lady, since it was the old man who spoke and he didn't use his own money, He Yuzhu was quite happy to help.

With the help of Yi Zhonghai and the neighbors in the courtyard, the old lady got into the ambulance heading to the hospital.

After sending the old lady to the hospital, they did a simple examination and found that the old lady had a fracture and needed to rest.

After paying 200 yuan for the old lady's medical expenses in advance, He Yuzhu hurried to Wangfujing carrying dried persimmons.

But Jin Ye is no longer a saleswoman in the store, saying that Jin Ye is busy at Panjiayuan Antique Market today.

Panjiayuan antique market?
He Yuzhu did know that there was such a place that specialized in buying and selling antiques.

Touching the dried persimmons in his pocket, He Yuzhu thought that it was quite early in the afternoon.

After asking about the location along the way, He Yuzhu quickly arrived at the location provided by the salesperson on his bicycle.

What appeared in front of him was a very old sign. He Yuzhu saw at a glance that Lord Jin was holding a snuff bottle in his hand.

I was chatting with a pair of foreign friends and said that this is a special thing for Lafayette Cixi, so I don’t have to feel uncomfortable all day long.

"This snuff bottle is brilliant and has a gold rim. It was used by Lafayette for a long time and is completely patinated!"

Mr. Jin looked at the translator on the side, who was talking nonsense, as if he was a businessman who had been in business for three years.

The foreign friends were deceived by Mr. Jin's sharp tongue and nodded repeatedly, took out the money and left with the snuff bottles.

"Master Jin, your antique business is really great. This little snuff bottle was sold for 200 yuan."

"Hey, my grandpa, long time no see!"

As the name suggests, Mr. Jin has a tooth in his mouth that he said was broken off from an ancient corpse. He then broke off one of his own teeth and put a gold tooth in it.

What Jin Ye is doing is buying and selling antiques. In fact, when He Yuzhu appeared at the door of the antique shop just now, Jin Ye had already seen it.

"What brought Brother Zhuzi to my place today?" Mr. Jin grinned, and the gold tooth in his mouth shone with a hint of gold under the light.

Jin Ye squinted his eyes and actually saw the big thing in He Yuzhu's pocket.

"Brother Zhuzi, why don't you come to the backyard and let's talk while drinking tea?"

He Yuzhu naturally understood that with just a few words from Master Jin, the street stall goods costing a few cents per pound were bought by foreign friends.

This shows Jin Ye's cunning and merciless image.

He Yuzhu only came to sell dried persimmons, and Lord Jin also gave a high price.

So it doesn’t matter whether he is a profiteer or not, as long as the money given by Lord Jin is enough, that’s fine.

"Okay." Say it, He Yuzhu nodded and followed Lord Jin to the yard behind the store.

After Jin Ye asked the waiter to go out to look at the shop, He Yuzhu soon felt Jin Ye's strength.

It is very rare to have a shop with a shop in the most prosperous location of Sijiu City.

Visually, there was no one else around, except for three children at home, running in the yard.

"Serve tea." Lord Jin ordered, and invited He Yuzhu to come into the room to talk.

After Jin Ye invited He Yuzhu to sit down, he asked straight to the point: "Brother, let's open the skylight and tell the truth. Are you a country rat?" '

"Loose rat? What do you mean?" He Yuzhu didn't understand what it meant.

"But the thing you gave me last time obviously had an earthy smell on it!" Mr. Jin smiled and squinted his eyes with a cunning look, and He Yuzhu could see it.

"Since brother doesn't want to talk, then forget it, but let me tell you, you are here to sell dried persimmons this time, right?"

Hearing Master Jin's question, He Yuzhu nodded and took out the dried persimmons from his bag and put them on the table.

Mr. Jin had a happy look on his face when he saw it. He picked up the dried persimmon and played with it from side to side. He also put it up to his nose and smelled it. Then he picked up the bottom of the dried persimmon and looked at it.

"Brother, how many dried persimmons do you have? Sell them all to me and I'll take them!" After saying that, Mr. Jin got up and took out the scale from the cabinet and put the dried persimmons up.

"It's the same number of grams. So, brothers, our friends have agreed. I'll take all the money you have, 1000 yuan each. As long as you sell it to me, I can increase the price!"

Mr. Jin said with a smile and put the dried persimmon directly into his pocket: "Brother, wait for me, I will get the money."

When Jin Ye returned to his room, He Yuzhu began to doubt that a businessman like Jin Ye could not afford to be early.

Spending such a big price to collect the dried persimmons in your own hands.

Also, He Yuzhu didn't understand what "Turatzi" meant.

Now He Yuzhu can think that the value of this dried persimmon must be much higher than itself.

And He Yuzhu still didn't understand where Mr. Cao got so many dried persimmons.

Let me mention here that dried persimmons are solid large gold ingots.

After a while, Master Jin came out, and He Yuzhu asked directly: "Master Jin, what does it mean to be a local rat?"

"You idiot? Do you really don't understand?" Jin Ye held the money in his hand, and it was obvious that He Yuzhu really didn't understand.

"Tu Mo Zi is the name for people who rob tombs." Jin Ye mentioned this.

He Yuzhu seemed to understand something. Mr. Cao had so many dried persimmons. It was very possible that Mr. Cao was a tomb robber?
He Yuzhu was a little curious at this time. If Mr. Cao was really a tomb robber, then it would be no wonder that this old man had so much money.

"Brother, although I don't know where you got these dried persimmons from, I want to ask you, did you sell these dried persimmons to others?"

Hearing what Lord Jin said, He Yuzhu shook his head: "I just sold two of them, all to you." '

When Master Jin heard this, he said, "Do you have a lot more? Why don't you sell them all to me?" "That won't work, let's do this for today?" He Yuzhu took the money.

He Yuzhu counted the pile of great unity several times over and over again.

"Master Jin, don't worry, as long as I want to sell, I will come to you."

Lord Jin nodded understandingly and ordered his family to cook.

"No, I'll go home and eat." He Yuzhu said.

But Lord Jin must keep He Yuzhu down for a meal.

But He Yuzhu was a cook himself, so he simply showed his skills to Lord Jin.

It was not until evening that He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard.

Returning to the courtyard, He Yuzhu saw the door of his home open.

It’s raining and I’m doing my homework with the window open.

He Yuzhu was about to enter the main courtyard through the corridor.

Suddenly I saw a dark figure running out of the house quickly because the hallway was too dark.

This little black shadow slipped into Jia Zhang's house.

He Yuzhu saw clearly that it was the boy Banggan who was sneaking home from his own house in a hurry.

He Yuzhu originally wanted to yell and call the thief, but he didn't want to scare the snake at night.

When he returned home, He Yuzhu said to Yu Yu inside the house: "Yu Yu, when you are home at night, you should turn on the lights in the living room."

When He Yuzhu turned on the light, he realized that the food left for him by the rain on the table at home had been reduced by more than half.

"Brother, where have you been? By the way, I left it on the table for you."

When Yu Yu went out to take a look, he was startled and raised his head to look at He Yuzhu.

"Brother has already eaten. Look, this is how you lured the wolf into the house."

He Yuzhu pointed to the vegetables, and then pointed to the darkness outside the door.

"Brother, you mean someone came in and ate it?" Yuyu was speechless.

"It's okay. Brother has plenty of ways to solve this problem."

"Have you kept the food from the old man's place?"

"Brother, I always lead the old man to eat at home."

"Yeah." He Yuzhu was very satisfied that his sister was sensible.

"Yu Yu, I will cook two dishes tomorrow night, one with green pepper twice-cooked pork and one with fried chicken nuggets. You can't eat these dishes."

"Huh?" Yuyu didn't understand.

"I want to add something to these two dishes." He Yuzhu thought of a way to deal with people who showed up uninvited and sneaked into his house to eat.

"Brother, do you mean to add rat poison to kill the stick? Brother, don't scare me!" Yuyu looked at He Yuzhu with wide eyes.

Although she knew that her family and Jia's family were at odds, she would just close the door next time she was at home.

It's really unnecessary to poison the stick stems with rat poison. When Yu Yu said this, He Yuzhu laughed.

"My silly sister, poisoning the stick with rat poison, how is it possible? Don't worry, I guarantee that the poison will not kill you. It is very possible that you will faint."

"You have done your homework and throw away these dishes. I won't eat what Bangge has eaten."

After saying that, He Yuzhu took out a big unity card from his bag and gave it to Yu Yu: "This is pocket money." '

"Ah? Brother, I haven't used up the pocket money you gave me last time." However, Yu Yu still reached out and took the money.

"In the past, our family had no money and everything was tight. Now that we have money, we can live however we want."

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he went out to find the old man and wanted to ask him why he had so many dried persimmons.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai's voice rang out: "Zhuzi, you are at home. I just looked for you, but Yuyu said you were not at home." '

He Yuzhu didn't even know why this old man had the nerve to come to him.

But after all, I was living in a courtyard house. I stopped and turned around: 'Master, what do you want from me? '

Yi Zhonghai looked at He Yuzhu: 'I want to talk to you about the old lady's hospitalization. '

"Master, the money the old lady spent in the hospital was paid for by Mr. Cao, and it has nothing to do with me."

"No, I mean the old lady needs someone to take care of her."

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, He Yuzhu seemed to understand.

What do you mean? It means asking He Yuzhu to accompany him to the hospital.

"Master, if you don't ask the street office to accompany the old lady, why don't you ask me, a working person, to take care of her?"

"No." Yi Zhonghai said anxiously.

"What does that mean?" He Yuzhu didn't understand at all.

"This time the old lady fell, and since the old man in our courtyard cannot pay, we will arrange for three aunts in the courtyard to take care of the old lady for a day each."

When He Yuzhu heard this, he felt that this was finally a human matter.

But the next second, He Yuzhu immediately broke through the defense.

"Then take care of the old lady's food and drink money?"

"Master, how long will this old lady stay in the hospital? Go to the street office. The master's intention is very clear. He will pay for the treatment of the old lady. For other money, the three masters of the courtyard will find a way on their own."

Listening to He Yuzhu's words, Yi Zhonghai could only nod his head: "I heard that you have already paid two hundred for the medical expenses in advance, which is probably enough. By the way, Zhuzi, in fact, the uncle is not at odds with you, you know?" '

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, He Yuzhu smiled: "Master, you are not at odds with me, you are at odds with yourself. As long as you don't mess with me, we won't offend the river, do you know?"

Listening to He Yuzhu's words, the look on Yi Zhonghai's face could not even be seen by He Yuzhu.

It's all because the yard is pitch dark and there is no electric light for lighting, so we can only rely on a little moonlight.

However, in He Yuzhu's view, when night falls, the courtyard always feels eerie.

"Master, since you are here, let me tell you, when will street lights be installed in our courtyard."

Yi Zhonghai looked around: "Street lamp, you have to be kind. After all, this lamp costs money, and everyone in the hospital needs to pay for it." '

"I'm convinced, sir. I paid for the street lamp. Okay, that's it for today." After saying that, He Yuzhu turned around and walked towards the backyard.

In the dark backyard, only Liu Haizhong's house and Xu Damao's house had lights. The old man's house had a faint light swaying through the window.

"It's weird!" He Yuzhu mentioned, walked up and knocked on the door: "Old man, it's me, He Yuzhu." '
