The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

The deaf old woman shamelessly asked;

"Grandma, I'm so old and I like peace and quiet. Could I stay at your place for a while?"

Don't worry, I'm too old for that, I won't touch your things!

He Yuzhu never expected the deaf old lady to be so shameless. He Yuzhu said:

"This might not be convenient. How about this, I'll ask the director of the subdistrict office tomorrow."

After all, you are the oldest person in our compound. We'll have Director Wang arrange a quiet place for you.

Although I live alone in that place, it's not peaceful at all.

There are many machines inside; it's where I do my experiments. It's constantly making a loud, rumbling noise!

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's refusal, they were about to go find the street director.

The deaf old lady refused to accept this, saying that Yi Zhonghai was there to take care of her in the compound.

If I move out and live alone, I could die in my own home and no one would find out.

So the deaf old lady quickly said:

"Then there's no need to trouble the neighborhood leaders. My problems are minor, and I've gotten used to it over the years."

Yi Zhonghai hadn't expected that this deaf old lady still cared about He Yuzhu. How could you possibly care about someone like that now?

Besides, even their own father has rushed back home. What right do you, an old woman, have to go and live with them?

Unbeknownst to the deaf old lady, it was because of this incident that Yi Zhonghai stopped taking good care of her after returning home.

This led to the elderly deaf woman's life becoming very unsatisfactory.

Of course, that's a story for later; for now, everyone continues to shower He Yuzhu with compliments.

He Yuzhu chatted with everyone for a while, then said he was too tired and that he hadn't yet toasted his master.

He left, and He Yuzhu took Yang Xiaodi to see his master.

Tian Zehua had just finished and changed his clothes; he was no longer wearing his chef's uniform.

He Yuzhu looked at Tian Zehua, and his master bowed to Tian Zehua with emotion:

"Master, thank you!"

Tian Zehua helped He Yuzhu up, then handed two red envelopes to He Yuzhu and Yang Xiaodi:

Congratulations to you both! I hope you two live a good life together!

He Yuzhu knew this was his master's gift, and he didn't look at the price, but he estimated it wouldn't be small.

He Yuzhu didn't even look, and said to Tian Zehua:

"Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't accept this, but today is a special day, so I'll accept it!"

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, Tian Zehua laughed and scolded:

"You little brat, what? You want to slap your master's face? You think it's not enough?"

He Yuzhu chuckled:

"How can that be possible?"

Tian Zehua looked at He Yuzhu and Yang Xiaodi, and asked He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, where is your father?"

He Yuzhu said with a smile:

"I'm outside, I don't dare come over, I don't dare see you!"

Tian Zehua cursed:

"Hmph, your unreliable father deserves to be scolded. What a good child, he just abandoned him like that."

If I were you, I wouldn't want him either; I'd cut ties with him completely!

He Yuzhu said:

"Never mind, Master, you're already back. Besides, I wouldn't have gone to pick you up if Yu hadn't wanted her father."

They didn't even realize they were being schemed against; they still thought the other person was a good person!

After hearing He Yuzhu's words, Tian Zehua asked:

"what happened?"

He Yuzhu briefly recounted how Yi Zhonghai and the White Widow plotted against He Daqing.

Tian Zehua said angrily:

"That's still your father's problem. If he could control his own behavior, would so many things have happened?"

He deserved it!

He Yuzhu said:

"Alright, Master, today is a joyous day for me, let's not talk about those unpleasant topics, they'll ruin my mood!"

Tian Zehua said:

"I knew today was your big day, otherwise I would have gone out and given him a piece of my mind!"

He Yuzhu then respectfully offered a toast to his master and mistress.

Tian Zehua and Yu Hui offered a few words of encouragement to the two, and then the party gradually ended.

However, Madam Jia didn't want to leave. Looking at the several tables of leftover food, she said with heartache:

"You're just going to throw away all that leftover food?"

Jia Dongxu's master's expression was unpleasant:

"Mom, let's go back. Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough today?"

The initial group number is 763480157.

Jia Zhangshi said angrily:

"How did I embarrass myself? Huh? Tell me, how did I embarrass myself?"

I also gave a gift!

Hearing Jia Zhangshi's angry roar, the filial Jia Dongxu was very frustrated, but he did not reprimand Jia Zhangshi. However, Xu Damao could not stand it any longer:

"You, you even gave a gift, but it was only 50 cents. Look at you, you finished eating and it wasn't enough, you wanted to eat and take some more?"

"What, you think you're invincible because you're shameless?"

Jia Zhangshi hadn't expected that, without anyone else speaking up, Xu Damao would jump out and say to him:

"Hmph! Why are you everywhere? I gave you 50 cents, how much did you give?"

Xu Damao said calmly:

"Fifty!"

Upon hearing Xu Damao's words, everyone gasped in shock.

I never expected Xu Damao to go to such lengths.

It should be noted that even Yi Zhonghai only gave five yuan.

Moreover, this five yuan is considered a great gift.

Yan Bugui only gave two yuan.

That's already quite a lot, and Xu Damao actually gave him almost two months' salary!

Jia Zhangshi scoffed and said:

"Are you stupid? With He Yuzhu being such an ungrateful person, what else would you be but a fool to give him so much money?"

From now on, I'll just call you "Idiot"!

Xu Damao looked at Jia Zhangshi as if she were a fool, and then said:

“Mrs. Jia, come here, tell me, when did Brother Zhu become ungrateful?”

Who in our compound has ever been kind to him? Now, Brother Zhu's skills are all earned through his own efforts.

What does this have to do with our compound? When Uncle He ran away, the whole compound was avoiding Brother Zhu, right?

Everyone was watching Zhu Ge make a fool of himself. Now that he's successful, and you didn't help him, are you all ungrateful?

"There are all sorts of birds in a big forest. And am I an idiot? We'll see!"

Xu Damao was very clever; he brought up the matter directly through an argument, which eventually reached the ears of the leaders.

Even if He Yuzhu doesn't say anything, it will still bring Xu Damao many benefits.

And all this only requires me to pay two months' salary.

This deal is very affordable.

Of course, no one knew Xu Damao's plans.

However, Yan Bugui knew this, because he soon learned of Xu Damao's scheme.
