Siheyuan: Kill Han Qingkui, Tian Zao is entangled with me

Chapter 154 Zong Xiangfang's Decision
"no no no"

Zheng Chaoshan suddenly wrapped the iron chain in his hand around Zong Xiangfang's neck and tightly grasped the chain with both hands, thinking of executing the traitor in this way.

"Xiang Fang, Xiang Fang? Are you in there? Xiang Fang, I'm coming in!"

Zheng Chaoyang's voice was heard from outside.

In fact, Zheng Chaoyang had arrived a long time ago. He witnessed his elder brother entering Zong Xiangfang's yard and knew that he was still late.

Combined with the previous events, Zheng Chaoshan came here to secretly execute Zong Xiangfang. This is the best time for him to win over Zong Xiangfang and bring him back to the right path.

Seeing a figure approaching outside the house, Zheng Chaoshan knew that he could not escape, so he could only loosen the chain helplessly and looked at Zong Xiangfang who was coughing non-stop with cold eyes, "Your old illness has relapsed again. Has it been a long time since it happened? Don't you take care of your health? I'll write you a prescription later. You can go to the pharmacy and drink a few doses and you will feel better."

"Brother? Why are you here? Xiang Fang, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? Why are you coughing? I shouldn't have let you go to Tianjin, blame me, blame me! Sit down, sit down quickly, and have a glass of water!"

The neck was red and there were scratches from fingernails. How could Zheng Chaoyang not see that?

"Ahem, Dr. Zheng, please come in person. Chaoyang, count out the money in my coat pocket for Dr. Zheng."

The consultation fee for home visits is relatively more expensive than that for office visits.

"You are Chaoyang's classmate and you saved his life before. This is just a small favor. If this prescription doesn't work, you can come to the hospital to see me again. Chaoyang, I'm going back to the hospital first!"

"Okay, brother, take care! Xiang Fang, why don't you go back to the bureau when you come back?"

"I thought that Chinese New Year was coming and I didn't have time to clean the house. Thank you!"

From the last word "thank you", Zheng Chaoyang could tell that Zong Xiangfang was truly grateful.

"Isn't this the chain for locking your front door? Why did you just throw it away? Give me the prescription and I'll get the medicine for you!"

Your brother came here specifically to kill me, where did he get the prescription?

"Oh, wait for me a moment."

Standing up with difficulty, Zong Xiangfang tightened his collar, trying his best not to expose the marks to Zheng Chaoyang.

"By the way, Xiang Fang, do you know which pharmacy in Sijiu City sells medicine for treating asthma?"

"Asthma treatment? Who has an asthma attack?"

Zong Xiangfang paused, and thought of Duan Feipeng mentioned by Zheng Chaoshan just now. Could it be such a coincidence?
"There are so many treatments for asthma, your brother should know!"

"Look at me, I forgot about it in my busy life. I'll go home and ask him later!"

The two chatted casually, and Zong Xiangfang found an old prescription issued by Tzu Chi Hospital and handed it to Zheng Chaoyang.

Zheng Chaoyang put one hand on his forehead and compared it with his own forehead. "Luckily you don't have a fever. You should take a rest! I'll go to the bureau to ask for leave for you. You should stay at home and recuperate for the next few days!"

"Chaoyang!"

"how?"

"Thank you!"

"Do we need to talk about this? We have become estranged! Are you blaming me for sending you to Tianjin and causing your old illness to relapse? When you get better, I will treat you to roast duck!"

"Okay, I remember it!"

Zong Xiangfang felt very uncomfortable now. He wanted to confront Zheng Chaoyang several times and tell him his true identity and the real purpose of entering the Public Security Bureau, and also that Zheng Chaoyang came to kill him instead of seeing a doctor.

But after thinking it over, he finally got away with it.

While Zheng Chaoyang was somewhat disappointed, he also planted the seeds of separation in Zong Xiangfang's heart.

[Zongxiangfang Old House Line 3 has been debugged]

To be on the safe side, it is better to arrange it, at least it can provide an extra layer of protection.

Not every premonition is so strong.

Of course, Zheng Chaoyang was also worried that Zong Xiangfang would make up his mind to escape from Sijiu City.

In fact, this is what Zong Xiangfang was thinking just now.

But if he really left Beijing, where could he go?
He has his career and his life in the city, and he will have to start all over again if he goes outside.

Besides, he has no money.

Now, if you sell the items in your home, not only will you not get the money quickly, but you may also be noticed.

Zheng Chaoyang took the cough medicine handed to him by the pharmacy clerk and went back to Zong Xiangfang's house.

When he saw that the courtyard gate was not locked, he felt certain. Then he saw that the lights were still on in the house, and he became a little worried. It was not until he saw Zong Xiangfang sitting in the house in a daze that he felt relieved.

"Why are you back again?"

"Didn't I go buy you some medicine? What's wrong with you? It's a little red!"

"It's okay. I just applied some safflower oil."

This was the excuse he had prepared beforehand, and he deliberately stained his hands with safflower oil just to avoid causing misunderstanding.

"Safflower oil can also treat coughs? You really have some tricks up your sleeve!"

There was some ambiguity in these words. Zong Xiangfang lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Zheng Chaoyang. He took the medicine handed to him and was about to stand up to pour him some water.

"You haven't been home for how many days? Is the water still drinkable? I'm going back to the bureau first. Call me anytime if you need anything!"

Seeing Zheng Chaoyang leave again, Zong Xiangfang felt his nose sour and tears couldn't stop flowing.

In the past, in the police academy run by the Japanese, the two of them did not have much interaction. Zong Xiangfang had always been very independent, and it was the same after he joined the Fifth District Police Station. He never made close friends with anyone, and he didn't even have much contact with his classmate Zheng Chaoyang.

Now that I’m in trouble, he treats me like this. It’s really worth it to have such a brother!

"Oh, I forgot to tell you because I was so busy. Why are you crying? Are you okay?"

"It's okay. I suddenly thought of my mother. The old lady was strong all her life, but she never saw me get married. I suddenly felt a little sorry for her."

"You should think about your personal problems. After the New Year, we will hold a commendation and award ceremony for you retained police officers, and we will also change your police uniforms! Well, the notice has arrived, and I have to convey the spirit to San'er and Duoye!"

Zheng Chaoyang really left this time.

He wanted to use this method to gradually let Zong Xiangfang feel which side treated him more as a human being and which side was just trying to buy him off with money.

Zong Xiangfang put away the medicine package on the table. He was not sick at all, but he would keep this medicine forever.

Being able to escape death was partly due to luck, but it also allowed Zong Xiangfang to see the true face of the Taoyuan gang.

Since Zheng Chaoshan has taken action against him, he will not stop. He can't continue to live here and must move to another place.

The Public Security Bureau’s dormitory is the best place.

On the way back, I passed by Bian Yi Fang and bought some roast duck and some offal. I also took some noodles with soybean paste back to Bai Ling.

"Where have you been? Hey, did you buy roast duck? Is my cooking so bad?"

"Be more confident. I'm the only one who can eat your stuff. Don't give it away to others."

Seeing Zheng Chaoyang and Bai Ling bickering with each other, Daya and Erya both laughed.

"I think they should just live here!"

"How can we live in such a small place?"

"Didn't you say before that Tian Zao's courtyard was not far from here?"

"Yes, I plan to rent a house for her and her sister there. Aunt Li and her friends are nice people and can take care of them from time to time."

"That's fine! You can come here to find me at any time, and I'll teach you about intelligence."

"Eat it first! It won't taste good if it's cold. I'll send it to Master Duo."

"Don't send me off. I can smell it from far away. Is it noodles with soybean paste? I can do it myself!"

He took out five or six bowls of noodles with soybean paste from the lunch box and ate one bowl in two or three bites, making Erya cry with greed.

"Eat if you want! I bought a lot."

"Let me mix it for you two! This is how you eat noodles with soybean paste!"

Daya and Erya quickly fell in love with this magical taste.

"Eat quickly! Each of you take a duck leg. Your sister Bai Ling doesn't like to eat this because she's afraid of getting fat!"

"Comrade Zheng Chaoyang, I may be familiar with you, but if you slander me, I will still arrest you!"

"How did I slander you? The bureau always sees you only eating vegetables and nothing else."

"There should be meat for me to eat in the canteen of the bureau! By the way, where is the beef you said? Don't tell me it's from Daxing again, right?"

"Kai Daxing? Shanghainese? What does it mean?"

"You can go if you want! I don't want to bother with you!"

"I'll get you the beef before I get off work today. Who are you looking down on?"

In the Lou Mansion, Lou Zhenxing was being scolded in the study.

"Look at you, you're not a child anymore, why are you still like this? If Zheng Chaoyang and the others hadn't searched for you with all their might, would you have confessed? How can I, as the eldest brother, explain this to my parents in the future?"

"Brother, I was really wrong this time. I know I was wrong. You can hit me and scold me, I accept it! Can you take those two girls back?"

"The twins? Zheng Chaoyang has already taken them away. You'd better give up on this idea as soon as possible!"

"It's not what you think. When I took Xiao'e to the Red Lotus Society to watch a performance, Xiao'e told me that she felt sorry for the two girls and wanted me to redeem them."

"You took a child to that kind of place? I'm really pissed! If something happened to Xiao'e, wouldn't your sister-in-law be crying?"

"No, no, I won't do that next time. I just wanted to redeem them. Since Zheng Chaoyang has taken them away, I won't care about it anymore. Even if you want us to go south as soon as possible, why not wait until after the New Year? At least let Xiao'e spend her last New Year in Sijiu City."

"What do you mean by last New Year? It's not like I can't come back in the future! Okay, I'll listen to you this time. I'll have a few parties at home and you have to thank Zheng Chaoyang properly. If your legs were really sawed off, living would be more painful than dying!"

Thinking of this, Lou Zhenxing was scared to death.

"By the way, many people on the road have contributed this time. Go back and thank each family, so that others won't say that our Lou family doesn't know how to do things."

"I see. Brother, this shoe transmitter is really useful. I think we can try to mass-produce it."

"The transmitter can be mass-produced, but what about the transceiver? Will it be interfered with? How far can it be transmitted? We can't install an antenna."

"Sure enough, every invention has its flaws. But how did he happen to receive my distress signal?"

Lou Zhenxing knew that he had been calling for help through his leather shoes for several days, but no one came to save him. Just when he was feeling discouraged, Zheng Chaoyang suddenly came.

"Dad, don't blame Second Uncle, it's Xiao'e's fault!"

"Dad didn't blame your second uncle, Xiao'e. It's true that you are kind-hearted, but you have to distinguish between people. If someone with ulterior motives approaches you, you still have to be able to distinguish them."

"Okay, got it, Dad. Second Uncle, can we leave after the New Year?"

"Got it! Come on, let Uncle take you to buy things for the New Year!"

"Let's go tomorrow! It's almost dark, you're not afraid at all!"

When several people came out of the study, Tan Yali came to greet them for dinner, "Auntie Xu, Auntie Zhao, the dishes are ready!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

Lou Xiao'e always felt that the new Xu Ma looked at her in a strange way, as if she wanted to eat her. "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law!"

"Zhenxing, your eldest brother told me everything about you. It's too dangerous."

"What kind of wine are you drinking? It can help Zhenxing calm down!"

"My sister-in-law still cares about me. Do you have any sweet wine?"

"You are already an adult, you need to start a family and a career. You can only start a career after you have a family!"

"What do you two have to recommend? Let him go on a blind date as soon as possible and settle the matter."

After finishing his meal, Zheng Chaoyang went to the bureau first, where he saw Zong Xiangfang carrying a lot of bags.

"Why are you here at the bureau instead of staying at home to recuperate?"

"It's a bit too lonely to live in such a big house by myself, so I thought of changing the environment to the dormitory in the bureau, so that no one would know if I got sick."

"What kind of Versailles statement is this? Isn't it good to have a big place? Why don't you just rent your house to me?"

"What are you going to use it for?"

He can't harm Zheng Chaoyang because of this. What if those people in Taoyuan want to kill him, wouldn't he become a scapegoat?
"We solved a case before, where there were a group of orphans who were kidnapped and controlled by drugs, so I thought about setting up an orphanage or something."

"Opening an orphanage in my house? You are amazing!"

"That's right. Opening an orphanage is a long-term thing. It's really not appropriate. Let me help you! You have a lot of stuff, and the dormitory in the bureau is small. I don't think you can put so many things in it, right?"

"Just a quilt and some change of clothes."

"Brother Zheng, these are the Goubuli steamed buns and donkey rolls that Zong Xun asked me to bring you! Zong Xun, why are you moving into the dormitory? I'm here to help too!"

"I don't have time to go home when I'm working on cases, so it's easier to live in the dormitory."

Zheng Chaoyang thanked him after taking the buns and donkey rolls.

"Don't just thank me! I haven't been reimbursed yet! I paid for it all myself!"

"Stingy! Here, here, here you go!"

When Zheng Chaoyang saw a 50,000 yuan bill, he was a little confused and took the wrong one out of nervousness.

"I've got the change for you. You took the wrong one! Here you go!"

Zheng Chaoyang stuffed a handful of banknotes into Zong Xiangfang's hand, and hurriedly put away the large-denomination bill.

"What are you doing? You've never seen a 50,000 yuan ticket before, but now you've seen one."

"You said you would treat us, don't forget it!"

"I can't forget. Isn't your old illness coming back? Can you eat spicy food?"

"Let's do it another day! I'm almost well now after taking the medicine!"

"That's Chinese medicine, not a magic pill. By the way, why didn't you bring your medicine jar when you came to live in the dormitory?"

Zong Xiangfang was so frightened that he almost dropped the quilt in his hands.

"This is the Public Security Bureau. How can you have the nerve to boil Chinese medicine here? I'd better go back and get the medicine myself."

Boy, you are very adaptable!

"Zongxun, are you sick?"

"It's an old problem. Just take a few doses of medicine and it will be fine."

"Brother Zheng, do we count this as meritorious service?"

"Well, it's still a great achievement. Director Luo has reported it to you. You will be commended after the new year. Just wait!"

"Great, I'll go back to Sister Zao first!"

"Wait a minute, then ask Aunt Li if there are any empty houses in the yard. I want to rent one!"

Dayong responded and ran away.

"Do you really want to rent a house? Then why don't you move in with me?"

"Your house is too big, remote and unsafe!"

At least your brother won’t kill you!
After Tian Zao returned, the yard suddenly became lively.

"This kid, you're out on business, why are you buying buns? Are they raw? I'll go steam them for you!"

"Sister Zao, it's great that you're back. Is this donkey rolls? It's delicious! Coal Core, come here quickly!"

Kong Jianguo also came out. Looking at the donkey rolling on the stone table, his mouth started drooling. However, he still looked at Tong Xiaoting who came out behind him.

"Eat it, but eat less. Eating too much sweets is bad for your throat."

Tong Xiaoting is quite understanding.

"Fourth brother, Meihe'er, Sister Xiulan is here too!"

"Why are you back? Did you give the things to him?"

"Give it to him! Aunt Li, Brother Zheng asked me to ask you, is there any vacant house in your yard?"

"Yes! Comrade Zheng wants to rent a house in our courtyard? How many people?"

Suo Qian lifted the door curtain and walked out.

"I didn't ask. How about I go back and ask now?"

"Don't run away. The buns are steaming. We'll eat soon. Why hasn't your dad come back today?"

"Uncle Gui has several tables of guests tonight, so he will be back later."

"Then why did you come back as a manager? Did you quit your job?"

"It's New Year's Day, auntie, how can you curse me?"

In the next door courtyard No. 95, the old lady came to see Yi Zhonghai again.

"Zhu Zi? He's fine."

"How do you know he's fine? Chinese New Year is coming soon, and you didn't ask if he could go home after the New Year?"

"Old lady, isn't reform the same as being in prison? Can you come back halfway? At worst, I can ask my wife to bring him some dumplings. Is that ok?"

"Did you ask how long it would take for me to come back? If I keep being locked up like this, when will it end?"

"Old lady, Zhuzi was a fool and beat up a policeman. It's a blessing in disguise that he was sent to a reformatory. Did you know that a group of spies were executed in the suburbs of Beijing not long ago?"

Yi Zhonghai's half-true and half-false words successfully fooled the old lady.

"But it just so happened that on my way back just now, I saw the boy who was taken to the police station with Zhuzi last time, sneaking past here."

"Since he beat up the police, why should he be released? No, I have to go to the police station to ask. You come with me!"

Yi Zhonghai instinctively resisted going to the Public Security Bureau.

Isn't this just walking into a trap?
If Zheng Qiang's people saw me and thought I was turning myself in, would I still be alive?

"Madam, let's do it another day! I still have some things to deal with in the factory!"

The old lady rolled her eyes at him and said, "Are you trying to fool the ghosts by burning newspapers on the grave?"
It's time to get off work, why are you going back?

Are you the factory manager or the workshop director?
Since Yi Zhonghai didn't accompany her, she didn't dare to go alone, for fear that those people would ask her something else.

Ever since Bai Yulan came to see her last time, she felt a little soft-hearted and continued to let He Yushui be raised by Yi Zhonghai, which she always felt was not right.

But if it really is handed over to Bai Yulan, that woman has such a bad reputation.
He shook his head and went to the backyard.

There was a lot of laughter coming from the next yard. The old lady snorted loudly and turned away.

Jia Zhang blocked Xu Fugui at the entrance of the alley again as he was leaving get off work.

"Sister Xiaohua, why are you here again?"

"How long do you want to hide from me? You promised me Dongxu's job, how come there's no news in all these days?"

"I didn't meet the boss, did I? How can I arrange for your Dongxu to join the team when the boss is not here? I am the only one who can handle this matter right now. Isn't Yi Zhonghai a level 4 fitter? Ask him and see if he can help you."

"I don't mean to blame you, I just want you to hold on a little tighter!"

Fortunately, it’s just grabbing the little hands, there are no other steps.

Xu Fugui had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his wife coming back from a distance. "Jia Zhang, I remember what you said. I will discuss it with Second Master Yan Bugui later. You can go back first!"

Just now she was calling her Sister Xiaohua, and in the blink of an eye she is calling her Mrs. Jia Zhang.

Just as he was about to say something sarcastic, he caught sight of Xu's mother approaching and cursed inwardly.

"What are you talking about here?"

"Nothing much. Jia Zhang told me about some of the conditions in the hospital. As the hospital's manager, I have an obligation to help them overcome their difficulties, right?"

Jia Zhang curled her lips and said, "You were helping me overcome it, you were suppressing me."

With a cold snort, he walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

"Go back with me!"

Mother Xu walked back to the yard with her head held high, like a victorious hen.

Just got back home, Xu Damao was fiddling with something.

"My little ancestor, put it down, put it down quickly!"

"Dad, can you teach me how to use this?"

"What a bullshit! You haven't even understood the book yet, and you want to learn how to use a projector?"

"Ignore your dad, Damao, do you want to go to work?"

"How old is he? What kind of job is he doing? He should just study now!"

"Do you think you will have a bright future if you study hard? You haven't read many books yourself, but you still work as a projectionist in a movie theater? My son is so smart, how come he can't learn? Go wash your hands, it's time to eat!"

Xu Damao's eyes fell directly from the projector to the lunch boxes.

"What leftovers did you bring back?"

"No matter how good the food is, it won't stop your greed. The leftovers from the capitalists' homes are better than what we eat. Why are you so dissatisfied?"

"Don't bring it home too much in the future, don't you think it's dirty!"

"Dirty? When I had nothing to eat, I drank stale water and chewed tree bark and roots, and yet I still complain about this and that!"

After being retorted by his wife, Xu Fugui went into the inner room and didn't want to eat anymore.

As the food came out of the stove, the aroma spread and I couldn't help swallowing my saliva.
