Jia Laonian came to the He family again with the money. In fact, the noises in the Jia family could be heard clearly in the middle courtyard. When Jia Laonian entered the door, He Daqing couldn't help laughing out loud: "Laonian, did a cat scratch your face?"

Jia Laonian said awkwardly: "I accidentally rubbed it."

"Whose family got four seals?"

Jia Laonian's face darkened.

"Okay, Daqing, let's get down to business."

"Yes, let's get down to business. Here are the ten silver dollars that we agreed on, ma'am." Jia Laonian took out the silver dollars reluctantly.

"The Qing Dynasty will keep it."

"Yes, old lady." He Daqing stepped forward and took the silver dollar while Jia Laonian looked reluctant.

"Do you feel sad now? If you do, take good care of your wife and children." The old lady looked at Jia Laonian and said lightly.

"Yes, old lady, I will take good care of them."

"Okay, go back and put some medicine on your face."

"Then I'll go back first, old lady. I'm sorry, brother Daqing. I apologize to you on behalf of my mother and son." Jia Laonian clasped his fists and bowed.

He Daqing didn't say anything, just nodded.

After Jia Laonian stood up, he turned around and pushed the door open and left.

"Hey, luckily my eldest grandson has come to his senses now and stopped playing with that Jia family kid. Otherwise, who knows what kind of person he would become."

"Dongxu wasn't like that before. I've heard people say that Jia Zhang is not a clean hand, but I haven't seen her in the courtyard."

"Hmph, that's because you didn't see it and didn't discover it." The old lady said dissatisfiedly.

"Okay, take the old lady back, and call Zhuzi back."

"Okay, old lady."

"Lanxiang, old lady, I'm going back!"

"Okay, old lady, please go slowly. Daqing, please be careful, it's dark and slippery outside."

"Got it, wife!"

At this time, Yi Zhonghai was drinking alone at the Yi family. When he came back, Li Guihua told him what happened during the day, and then he heard the sound of fighting in the Jia family.

Doesn't he know who Jia Laonian is? He has never attacked Jia Zhang before. It seems that he is angry today. It also makes him realize that the He family cannot be offended. The old lady in the backyard will really take action.

He Daqing was not really afraid of the old lady, who was just a cook who knew some Kung Fu. What he was really afraid of was the old lady. How could she be a simple person if she owned such a big house and hadn't been robbed by someone in this day and age?

After Jia Laonian returned, Jia Dongxu said, "Dad, please make some food. I didn't have lunch."

"What to eat? We have no money. We won't die from skipping two meals." "Hiss"

Jia Zhang was still feeling sorry for the ten dollars, so she raised her hand and gave Jia Dongxu a big slap on the neck, saying, "It hurts."

"Have some cornmeal porridge. You can't fall asleep without eating anything!" Jia Laonian said unhappily, and walked to the stove to turn on the fire to boil water.

Jia Zhang didn't dare to talk back at this moment, for she was afraid of being beaten again. Her face was swollen now, and her facial features were squeezed together because she was already fat, making her look like a wrinkled bun.

He Yuzhu and Xu Damao stayed at his house for a while before Zhao Cuifeng came back. When she saw He Yuzhu there, she asked, "Zhuzi, was Damao obedient today?"

"Be good, Auntie, I've brought you a bowl of bird soup. You can heat it up and drink it later."

"Did you catch sparrows again? I've already eaten, so I'll save some for you to eat at noon tomorrow."

Xu Damao really wanted to show off and flaunt their achievements, but his mother gave him a glare that shut him up. The look in her eyes was full of resentment, but Zhao Cuifeng pretended not to see it.

"I did take some, a little more than yesterday. No need to keep it. Auntie, have it as a midnight snack. I'm going back first."

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Play with Damao for a while. Auntie will bring back some cakes. You two can have some together."

"Leave it for Damao. Pastries are so expensive nowadays." He Yuzhu stood up.

"Then take some back, sweetheart. Damao has been eating at your house these two days, and you even took him out to play. A little snack is not worth it." Zhao Cuifeng divided the snacks she brought back into two pieces. Xu Damao didn't feel reluctant at all. In the past, he would have taken them and ran away.

"Thank you, Auntie. I'll go back first."

"Watch your step when you go out."

"it is good."

"Goodbye, Brother Zhuzi. I'll come to see you tomorrow." Xu Damao finally got the chance to speak.

"it is good!"

When He Yuzhu returned home, he wanted to give the snack to his mother, but Chen Lanxiang said, "Eat it yourself. Mom doesn't like sweet food."

He Yuzhu rolled his eyes. Women don’t like sweet things. You must be kidding.

"What's that look in your eyes?"

"Nothing, nothing, Dad, does my mom like sweet food?"

"Of course I don't like it. You've asked me to make snacks and candies for you many times in the past." He Daqing said.

He Daqing

"Ah, did I say something wrong?" He Daqing pretended to be innocent.

"Hehe!" He Yuzhu smiled innocently.

The family laughed and joked for a while, and He Daqing wondered why He Yuzhu didn't ask about the Jia family.

He Yuzhu asked, "I didn't hear it. What happened to the Jia family?"

He Daqing first glanced at Chen Lanxiang, and Chen Lanxiang nodded.

He Daqing then told him that the Jia family came to compensate for the money and gifts, and that the Jia family had even fought a battle.

He Yuzhu was not surprised to have to pay compensation, but it was a bit surprising that Jia Zhang was beaten.

"Did he really hit me? Was he beaten hard?" He Yuzhu asked the question in his mind.

"You are quite gossipy, kid. I guess the fight was pretty intense. Zhang Ruhua screamed in pain." He Daqing said.

"Okay, okay, why are you two acting like old women?" Chen Lanxiang glared at the father and son, and they smiled at each other.

Then He Daqing asked He Yuzhu if it was dangerous for him to handle those things. He Yuzhu naturally said no. He Daqing naturally didn't believe it and asked if he needed to go with him. After all, he was an adult.

He Yuzhu refused, saying that people were not on guard because he was just a child. If He Daqing went there, people would definitely be on guard.

He Daqing knew that his son was stubborn, and He Yuzhu always went there during the day, and he had to go to work during the day, so he could only tell him not to go there if it was not necessary.

He Yuzhu certainly agreed verbally, and after chatting for a while, He Yuzhu returned to the ear room. Her mother was tired after coaxing the little girl all day, and was yawning at this moment.

After He Yuzhu left, He Daqing said, "Mother, please keep an eye on Zhu during the day and don't let him run around."

"Can I control him? I can't even leave the house now? Besides, I can't control your son if he grows up."

"Then you keep talking to him, and he'll listen to you."

"I've said everything I need to say. This kid has good ideas and knows his limits. I'll try my best to keep him from running away. He'll be fine once I'm out of confinement."

"Okay, we raised our son for ten years but he didn't get any filial piety. But Yushui got help from her brother."

"Don't say that. My son saved my life and my mother's life. How can he be helpless?"

"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing." He Daqing pretended to slap himself twice.

He Yuzhu returned to the ear room, washed up, and lay on the bed. Out of boredom, he called out the panel again. When he saw the task column, he almost collapsed.

[Mission: Host, please take away the large amount of national treasures, antiques, and gold hidden at Mitsui & Co., No. 1 Wangfujing Street. These items will be shipped in three days!]

(The above is all fiction. Readers should not dwell on the real historical scene. Why Wangfujing? Because it is difficult for a little kid to go to Dongjiaominxiang to conduct reconnaissance without arousing suspicion.)
