The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

Looking at the scrambling and stumbling old lady Hu, He Yuzhu snorted disdainfully.

Then they closed the door and went back inside. The others, seeing that Old Lady Hu and He Yuzhu had left, started gossiping about it.

"Old Mrs. Hu has really messed up!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect them to have guns!"

"Judging from what that old lady did, this matter is probably not over yet!"

"Yeah, but what can we do?"

"Exactly! Although their house has two courtyards, it's just their family living there! Their status must be extraordinary!"

"Yes, I wonder what that old lady Hu will do!"

……

He Yuzhu heard the discussion from inside the house, but he wasn't afraid, since he hadn't fired a shot.

With all these things I own, there's no way anyone could investigate, even if someone did come.

If he showed his ID, it would be Old Lady Hu who would suffer, and the girl who was bullied by Old Lady Hu would have nothing to do with him.

After all, she is someone else's daughter, and no matter how powerful you are, you can't interfere in someone else's family affairs.

After all, such things happen all the time in this era, and there's simply no way to manage them.

He Yuzhu returned home and then said:

"We taught that old woman Hu a lesson, she won't dare to cause trouble at our house again. Let's eat!"

He Daqing asked:

"You hit him?"

He Yuzhu said:

“When I refused to give her food, she tried to scratch me. I was already being lenient by not killing her.”

"Know that I have the right to kill anyone who attacks me on the spot!"

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, he remembered the identity He Yuzhu had told him before.

He Daqing nodded:

"As long as I don't cause you any trouble!"

He Yuzhu waved his hand:

"Nothing like this could possibly cause me any trouble! Let's eat!"

Now that the food was ready, He Yuzhu decided to have dinner with his family.

He Yuqing said happily:

"Dinner's ready! Dinner's ready!"

The four of them started eating, and just as they were about to finish, there was a rapid knocking on the door.

He Yuzhu said:

"Dad, Aunt Song, you two eat first, I'll go see what's wrong?"

He Daqing knew that He Yuzhu could handle these matters, and then nodded:

"Go ahead, but don't make a big deal out of it!"

He Yuzhu nodded, then went out and opened the door. Seeing a policeman, He Yuzhu asked curiously:

"Hello comrade, how can I help you?"

The police asked:

"Someone just called the police, saying someone in your house has a gun. I came over to check if that's true."

He Yuzhu nodded:

“That’s right, this is my identification, this is my gun license, and this is our gun!”

After saying that, He Yuzhu took out all the items, including the gun, which was still in its holster.

The police officer looked at He Yuzhu's identification and the weapon's serial number, then said:

"No problem, but even if you have a gun license, you can't point a gun at ordinary people, can you?"

He Yuzhu explained:

"My profession is special, so I won't tell you. It's because of the special nature of my work."

So the country rewarded me with a lot of things. My father, stepmother, and my half-sister live here.

I came here today because I brought some meat and planned to show my respect to my father.

I had just finished cooking when that old lady Hu came over, saying that since we were neighbors, we had to give her the meat we cooked.

You know, although I cooked meat, there wasn't much, and my father, aunt, and sister didn't eat any.

Comrade, you know how difficult it is to get meat these days, right?

Why should we give it to others? We're just having a small treat, it's not even a real treat.

With such a shortage of supplies right now, let alone meat, even food is a matter of life and death. Can we give them to them?

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, the police knew they couldn't give it to him, since food is so precious these days.

You can't buy it even if you have money. You finally managed to get a little bit, how could you possibly be willing to give it to someone else?

Even if I had food, I'd give it to my wife and kids first!

The police officer nodded, and He Yuzhu continued:

"Then I didn't give it to him, and he tried to attack me. You saw my gun license; it's not the kind that allows you to shoot in a crisis, but rather the right to fire freely."

In other words, if I had just killed him, I wouldn't have had to take any responsibility. I thought, he's just an old lady from the countryside, a lesson is enough, I wouldn't kill him.

He didn't use a gun, he just slapped her to teach her a lesson.

But to my surprise, this old lady was so ungrateful that she started cursing in the street.

If I had known, I would have killed him as soon as he started attacking me, since I work for a classified unit.

I don't get many chances to come back, and this is the first time I've managed to come back to reunite with my parents and family. I never expected this to happen. I don't want to have any more time to get entangled with this old lady Hu.

I scared him away with a gun, but unexpectedly, she accused me first!

After hearing He Yuzhu's words, the police returned all the items to He Yuzhu and then said:

"Hello, Comrade He Yuzhu, I understand what happened and I will verify it with other witnesses."

If it's their fault, we will punish them severely!

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Thank you for your help. Is there anything else?"

The police shook their heads:

"That's all. Go back and stay with your parents!"

He Yuzhu nodded and went back. The police investigated the surrounding witnesses and found that what He Yuzhu said was true.

He said to Old Lady Hu:

"Grandma Hu, this was your mistake to begin with, how dare you call the police?"

Upon hearing what the police said, Old Lady Hu immediately became indignant:

"No matter what, he hit me. If he doesn't want to give it to me, he doesn't want to give it to me. Why should he, an adult, give it to me? Is there any justice in this world?"

The police officer said coldly:

"Shut up. If you hadn't made a move, would they have hit you? You were the one who started it. They didn't kill you because you're an old man."

Even if they beat you to death, they won't take any responsibility; your death will be for nothing!

Upon hearing the police's words, Old Mrs. Hu immediately became enraged, sitting on the ground and howling:

"Is there no justice left? You officials are protecting each other! You're bullying ordinary people!"

Seeing the old lady wailing, the police did not indulge her.

Click!

They handcuffed Old Lady Hu and then said:

"Spreading rumors, making false accusations, and interfering with law enforcement—take them away!"

The police didn't want to say a word to Old Lady Hu, even though they had originally intended to explain things to her.

However, after inquiring with people around her, it became clear that this old woman, Hu, was not a good person at all.

While this old woman is causing trouble, we plan to arrest her and teach this arrogant old woman a lesson.

Old Mrs. Hu was known for her tantrums and shrewishness in the village, but here, in the capital city...

I won't tolerate your tantrums and silliness.

You should know how many criminals, when caught, act out and make a scene.
