Break out of the courtyard

"Boy!" He Yuzhu came out with two plates of mutton rolls and sat next to Lou Xiaoe. He said to Zhang Xin, who had already started eating, "Did your father die in the south?"

"Bullshit!" Zhang Xin was furious. He stood beside the table, pointed at Sha Zhu with his chopsticks, and angrily said, "Say it again if you dare!"

"What?" Sha Zhu placed a plate of mutton rolls in front of himself, and another plate of mutton rolls in front of He Xiao who was opposite Zhang Xin.

"You..." Zhang Xin was about to say something when he saw Sha Zhu pick up half a plate of mutton rolls and put them into the copper hot pot with one chopstick, so he hurriedly reached out his chopsticks to grab it.

Snapped!
Sha Zhu stretched out his left hand, slapped Zhang Xin's chopsticks away, and said with a glare: "If you want to eat mutton, go to the kitchen and cut it yourself."

"Damn you! You can't even do the math, and you just hide behind the cash register all day long waiting for free food!"

Lou Xiao'e, as Zhang Xin's mother, bent her elbow and bumped into Sha Zhu, "What's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xin felt uncomfortable being stared at by three waiters and four kitchen staff, plus the ambiguous actions between his mother and Sha Zhu, and thinking back to what happened in the afternoon, he was simply burning with rage.

However, just when others thought Zhang Xin was going to overturn the table, he sat down and sneered, "Silly Zhu, when Qin Huairu and her daughter Huaihua came into the store this afternoon, their stomachs were both flat. Why were their stomachs bulging like pregnant women when they left through the back door?"

"Could it be that you got Qin Huairu and Huaihua pregnant in the kitchen this afternoon?"

Poof...

Several restaurant employees almost burst out laughing, but Lou Xiao'e frowned and glanced at the dish on the table.

Sha Zhu raised the chopsticks that were holding the mutton, pointed at Zhang Xin and said fiercely, "Hey! You bastard, if you dare to say something nonsense again, do you believe I will break your legs?"

"Silly Zhu, it's only natural for me to eat for free in my mother's shop." Zhang Xin sneered, "You're a thief in the kitchen. It's fine if you steal meat yourself, but now you let Qin Huairu and Huaihua, mother and daughter, come to my mother's shop to steal meat. Humph..."

Zhang Xin had actually told Lou Xiao'e about Qin Huairu and her daughter stealing meat in the afternoon, but Lou Xiao'e did not react at all.

Therefore, Zhang Xin didn't wait for others, and ate the mutton slices that were served first and the pork that was served as filler, like a starving ghost.

It was because of Zhang Xin's behavior that Sha Zhu asked whether Zhang Xin's father died in the south, implying that Zhang Xin was uneducated.

He Yuzhu was offended by Zhang Xin's words. Facing his adopted son He Xiao's seemingly innocent inquiring eyes, he threw away his chopsticks, stopped eating the meat, glared at Zhang Xin, and walked out of the store with his hands behind his back.

However, after Sha Zhu walked out of the store, he waited for five or six seconds, but when Lou Xiao'e and He Xiao didn't come out to keep him, he walked away with his hands in his sleeves.

When Sha Zhu came out of the front gate, crossed the big square and walked onto Chang'an Avenue, he happened to see the Zhang family's group walking towards the lake.

He cursed inwardly, shrank his neck and pretended to be a passerby, brushed past them, went to Nanchizi Street, and then headed north back to Nanluoguxiang.

As a result, at the gate of No. 95 Courtyard, he encountered the Zhou family blocking the door again, and his mood was terrible!

"A good dog doesn't block the road!" Sha Zhu still had some rationality. He knew the relationship between the Zhang family and the Zhou family, so his curse was quite civilized.

However, Zhou Laoer made some money last year, and Zhang Heping invited him to dinner tonight. How could he tolerate being scolded?

The key point is, it was his mother and sister-in-law who were blocking the door!
Zhou Laoer also got angry. "Which bastard didn't tie his belt properly and gave birth to you in the toilet? You have such a stinky mouth!"

"Grandson, watch your mouth! Believe it or not, grandpa will beat you so hard that you won't even recognize your mother!" Seeing the woman blocking the door move aside, Sha Zhu stepped into the room. It was pitch dark so he couldn't even see the person clearly, but he started scolding her!
Yan Laokou's family in the front yard and the people at the gates on both sides were alarmed and came out to watch the fun.

"Come on, hit me!" Zhou Laoer showed his face and sneered, "Don't blame grandpa for not reminding you. My brother Ping just invited our family to dinner. Try to hit me!"

When Sha Zhu came back just now, he saw the Zhang family. When he heard Zhou Laoer say this, his breathing could not help but stagnate. He put his hands behind his back and was about to walk towards the middle courtyard, but Zhou Laoer spread his hands and said, "Hey..."

"Just try to hit me!"

Zhou Laoer stood in front of Sha Zhu and said with a fake smile: "Grandpa just wants to take a rest recently. If you dare to hit me, I will lie on the ground and go to the hospital to rest for a few days."

"Don't worry, your medical expenses, nutrition expenses, and lost wages will not be undercharged!"

This waste of money reminded Sha Zhu of the time when he was blackmailed by the Zhang family. He became angry again. He stared at the Zhou family kid standing at the door of the east wing and walked around Zhou Laoer.

Zhou Laoer had not yet had enough fun, but the look Sha Zhu gave his son made his heart suddenly tighten, and he stopped provoking him.

At this moment, his mother Chen Liqin also spoke up, "Second brother, stop talking nonsense!"

As the Zhou family entered the east wing, Yan Laokou's family and the gatehouse neighbor returned home reluctantly.

Sha Zhu was sulking. He pulled aside the quilt curtain of the main room in the middle courtyard and pushed the door open. He saw Yi Zhonghai, Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu, Banggeng and his wife, Xiaodang and his wife, Huaihua and his wife, and three little kids sitting around the table. They looked so happy, just like a family.

"Wow! You guys have eaten all of this!" Sha Zhu forced a smile, trying to hide his recent worries.

Qin Huairu stood up and asked with a hint of confusion: "He Yuzhu, why did you come back so early today?"

"Hey, don't mention it!" Sha Zhu glanced around the room, trying to find a set of bowls and chopsticks to put on the table, and he didn't forget to blame, "You and Huaihua were seen by that bastard Zhang Xin when you took the meat this afternoon!"

"Just now when we were having dinner, that bastard complained about me in front of Lou Xiaoe and other employees, so I couldn't even eat."

Yi Zhonghai didn't consider himself an outsider. He waved to He Yuzhu and said, "Silly Zhu, come and sit next to me!"

While they were talking, and while Qin Huairu went out to get the dishes and chopsticks, several pairs of chopsticks on the table kept reaching into the soup pot, picking up slices of mutton and putting them into their respective bowls.

Sha Zhu pretended not to see it, lifted the curtain and went out to find Qin Huairu to vent his sexual desire.

...

That night, in the second floor hall of the Zhang family.

Just as Ma Xiuzhen and Lao Zhang were checking Zhang Heping's "consultant" letter of appointment and credentials, Zhou Chengwen ran into the yard in a hurry.

"Peace! Peace!"

Zhang Heping poked his head out of the second-floor lobby, looked at Zhou Chengwen who was standing by the patio below, and frowned, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Chengwen looked up, then hurried up the stairs next to him, ran to Zhang Heping, and whispered, "There are two foreigners in Courtyard 95, who are paying to get information about you. We suspect..."

"Jizai, Ayang, follow me!" Zhang Heping shouted, then jumped down from the railing on the second floor.

"Okay, Master!" The two male bodyguards who were playing billiards on the second floor immediately dropped their cues and ran down the stairs on the side.

"Xiao Li, Xiao Tang, hold your guns and guard the door!" Zhang Heping had already walked to the door when he gave the order to the two guards.

A moment later, he started the electric SUV and drove towards Nanluoguxiang with two male bodyguards.

After the three of them left, Ma Xiuzhen and the others finally reacted, "Boss Zhou, what did you just say to Heping?"

Seeing that everyone on the second floor was staring at him, Zhou Chengwen couldn't help but explain, "Just now, we were at the second brother's place..." Zhang Heping had been wary of the magnesium guy recently, and the "consultant" contract he suddenly received this morning made him even more sensitive.

After Mr. Hua gave the "consultant" the contract, he said, "If the Taiwanese dare to do anything bad to you again, we will have a legitimate reason to fight back against them!"
It can be inferred from this that the magnesium guys may have taken actions that are unfavorable to Zhang Heping, and the clues have been discovered in advance by the higher-ups!
Why was he so sure that it was the Taiwanese and not the Japanese or the Japanese?

Mainly because the GATT incident came at such a coincidence that it is difficult to exclude the involvement of the Americans.

The electric off-road vehicle passed through the narrow alley and brought Zhang Heping to No. 95 Nanluoguxiang, where he had not been for many years.

"Cousin!" Ma Lili, the eldest cousin, was standing guard at the door. When she saw Zhang Heping getting out of the car, she hurried over, "Those two foreigners are in the backyard!"

"Got it!" Zhang Heping replied, and then he quickly walked into Yard 95 with two bodyguards.

Zhang Heping's senses were fully activated, and he discovered that most of the people in the yard were in the backyard, and were now moving towards the middle yard.

"Zhang Heping is here!" Yan Jiekuang shouted.

Then, the people in the yard suddenly separated to the left and right, making way between Zhang Heping and the two foreigners.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang! We are MB..."

They are here to investigate Zhang Heping's whereabouts. How could Zhang Heping tolerate these foreigners!

While the white-skinned foreigner in his 50s was speaking, Zhang Heping rushed up to him in three or two steps and patted him on the back of his neck to shut him up.

Just when Zhang Heping's second palm strike knocked out the 20-something blonde woman, Yi Zhonghai got the confidence from nowhere and dared to stand in front of Zhang Heping and the two male bodyguards.

"Zhang Heping, what do you want to do to our international friends?" Yi Zhonghai shouted, "This is the capital, not the Hong Kong Island you fled to, you..."

Zhang Heping lifted a foreigner by the neck with one hand and lifted both of them off the ground. Such great strength reminded Yi Zhonghai of some bad memories.

"Go on!" Zhang Heping held the two foreigners in his hands as if they were two stuffed dolls, and scanned the crowd with cold eyes, "You'd better pray that you didn't say anything you shouldn't have just said!"

"Get out of here!" The bodyguard named Jizai stretched out his hand and pushed away the cowardly Yi Zhonghai.

As a result, Yi Zhonghai bumped into Jia Zhangshi, Xiaodang and others while retreating.

Yi Zhonghai felt very guilty at this time, and was afraid that Zhang Heping would bring up old scores with him!
What if Zhang Heping lets his bodyguards break his legs? Then Zhang Heping will be fine and at most the two bodyguards will be punished.

The key point is that Yi Zhonghai is old, and it is a question whether his broken leg can recover. Can the Jia family take care of his food and daily life after the broken leg?
"There will be no filial son by the bed of a patient who has been ill for a long time!" Yi Zhonghai sighed in his heart and dared not to go against Zhang Heping anymore.

Just when the people in the courtyard went to the middle courtyard and the front yard to watch the subsequent excitement, Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu, who were having an affair in the deaf old lady's room in the backyard, slipped out.

However, before they could understand what had just happened, a group of police officers blocked the gate of the courtyard!
At the same time, many policemen gathered at Zhang's house on the north bank of Houhai.

Half an hour later, Director Wang Sumei got out of the car in front of Zhang's house and ran into the Zhang family's courtyard in a hurry.

Director Wang saw Ma Xiuzhen and others as soon as he entered the room, and asked anxiously, "Has Heping not returned yet?"

"Director Wang, has something happened?" Ma Xiuzhen quickly approached Wang Sumei and asked anxiously, "What do those two foreigners do?"

"Auntie Wang, are you hiding something from us?" Chen Shuting took out the certificate and asked seriously, "You just sent my husband a consultant's letter of appointment and certificate this morning, and in the evening a foreigner came to Nanluoguxiang. There must be some connection between them!"

Wang Sumei glanced at the classmates around Zhang Bei and the two nephews behind Ma Xiuzhen, and said softly: "Two years ago, a traitor fled to the country of Magnesium. He may have leaked Heping's identity. In addition, you usually come back without covering it up..."

"This is also the reason why I asked you before whether you want to let Xiaofeng, Xiaolong and the others study in China."

In fact, Director Wang also doesn’t know many things.

The reasons that made the Magnesian guys determined to come to the mainland to investigate Zhang Heping's whereabouts were, first, the two Magnesian fighter planes that exploded on Japanese islands, second, the memory and processors newly launched by Tingmei Trading, and third, the stock market crash in Magnesium!

Of course, the Chinese were not stupid enough to send two spies to openly conduct a background check on Zhang Heping.

Look, in a Chinese medicine store, Zhang Heping, who had already used silver to force confessions from two foreigners, was now frowning and thinking about how to deal with the manager and secretary of the two MBI companies.

What Zhang Heping could confirm was that neither the man nor the woman had received any spy training.

However, these two foreigners went to conduct background checks on Zhang Heping in secret, but they were instructed by someone!

In other words, they are not spies, but they are helping spies conduct some investigations that are not illegal.

Bodyguard Ayang was guarding behind the wooden door of the Chinese medicine store, and bodyguard Jizai was beside Zhang Heping, witnessing the entire process of the interrogation.

Seeing that Zhang Heping had not spoken for a long time, the bodyguard Jizai thought that he was hesitating whether to kill the two people on the ground, so he asked, "Master, do you want me to kill them?"

"Killing them is useless!" Zhang Heping shook his head and said coldly: "I tricked them into looking for my man, hiding him in the embassy. I need to know who his superior is, so that I can eliminate the root of the problem!"

The bodyguard Jizai looked at the two foreigners lying on the ground with their eyes wide open, unable to move, and asked, "What should we do with these two people?"

Many thoughts flashed through Zhang Heping's mind...

If you cripple these two people, it will lead to foreign affairs disputes!
Turn them into vegetables. So many people in Yard 95 saw him kidnapping foreigners. He must not do that this time.

Giving them chronic poison was Zhang Heping's original intention of coming to the Chinese pharmacy.

But after Zhang Heping interrogated the two men, he couldn't help but be tempted by MBI's cooperation plan!
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Heping squatted between the two magnesium guys, waved his left and right hands, pulled out the silver needles from their bodies, and threw them on the ground.

As soon as the silver needle was taken out, the expressions of the two magnesium guys twisted!

Their bodies were stiff and they were suffering from numbness and itching all over, as if countless ants were biting them.

This feeling was similar to the numbness in the legs after squatting for a long time, except that Zhang Heping made their legs feel more sore.

This Chinese medicine store was not far from Houhai. When Zhang Heping drove them to the door of Zhang's house, the two foreigners were still enduring the numbness and itching all over their bodies.

"Heping!" Director Wang, who was guarding the door of Zhang's house, hurried over as soon as he saw Zhang Heping get out of the car.

However, the police on duty nearby were faster and had already surrounded the black electric SUV!
"Are those two foreigners okay?" Wang Sumei was not worried about Zhang Heping, mainly because this guy was such a good fighter!
"Jizai, Ayang, go back to the house first and leave the person to the police!" After Zhang Heping said this, he pulled Wang Sumei to the shore.

Zhang Heping raised his chin towards the two foreigners who had just been helped out of the car, and said softly to Director Wang:

"The two foreigners said that if MBI can't cooperate with us in chip production, the missile chips of the Magnesium Country can only be purchased from the Japanese!"
