The Courtyard House: The story begins with He Yuzhu beating up the White Widow.

"Yes!" Wu Jiangyong echoed, then continued, "There were three major malignant tumors in Courtyard No. 95. Now all three have been completely removed."

Wang Xia asked curiously, "What are the three major cancers?!"

Wu Jiangyong said, "Jia Zhangshi, Yi Zhonghai, and the deaf old lady. To put it bluntly, the three of them are a group of interests. Jia Zhangshi is the one who charges into battle, Yi Zhonghai is the one who plays both sides and secretly favors the Jia family, and the deaf old lady is the one who stays behind the scenes."

Wang Xia asked thoughtfully, "Old Wu, who did you think delivered the whistleblower letter?!"

"That's hard to say," Wu Jiangyong replied casually, then said, "I'm going to see Yi Zhonghai tomorrow. Are you coming?!"

Wang Xia replied, "I won't go! You go by yourself! But I reckon Yi Zhonghai won't agree to divorce Zhao Shufen."

Wu Jiangyong asked, "He's already like this, why won't he agree?!"

Wang Xia said, "If I'm not mistaken, the rumors circulating outside that Zhao Shufen is infertile were most likely spread by Yi Zhonghai. Even if it wasn't Yi Zhonghai who spread them, it's still related to him. I estimate that Yi Zhonghai most likely knows he's infertile. You're a man too. If you knew you couldn't have children, what would you do?!"

Wu Jiangyong instinctively replied, "What else can we do?! We'll keep it a secret as long as we can. This is a matter of a man's pride." Then, Wu Jiangyong suddenly realized something and said, "I understand. If Yi Zhonghai doesn't want a divorce, I'll ask the Women's Federation for help."

At the same time, a jeep stopped at the entrance of the alley where No. 95 Nanluoguxiang is located. Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong got out of the car. "Old Zhao, that little brat, does he look like Zhang Dabiao?!"

Zhao Gang replied, "The two even look remarkably alike."

Li Yunlong then asked, "Old Zhao, is it appropriate for us to go like this?!"

"What's inappropriate?! Why have you become so fussy, Li Yunlong?!" Zhao Gang said impatiently, pulling Li Yunlong into the alley.

Not long after, Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong arrived at the entrance of courtyard number 95. Zhao Gang glanced at the doorplate and said, "This is it."

The plump aunt saw Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang and asked, "Who are you looking for?!"

Zhao Gang asked, "Comrade, does He Yuzhu live here?"

The plump aunt asked, "What do you want with him?!"

Zhao Gang said, "We are his relatives."

Aunt Pang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Come with me!" With that, Aunt Pang led Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong toward the Central Court.

"Pillar!" Aunt Pang's voice rang out as soon as I stepped into the courtyard.

"Auntie Pang, what's wrong?!" He Yuzhu ran out of the house upon hearing the shout. Seeing Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong following behind Auntie Pang, he asked in surprise, "Uncle Zhao, what brings you here?!" Then He Yuzhu said to Auntie Pang, "Auntie Pang, these two are my relatives."

"So it really is your relative?! Then I'm relieved!" With that, Aunt Pang turned and left. He Yuzhu invited the two into the house, and after gesturing for them to sit down, he quickly made two cups of tea and placed them in front of Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong, saying, "Uncle Zhao, you're so busy with work, yet you still came to see us. I'm really a little embarrassed."

Zhao Gang asked, "Where's your sister?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "She's playing with her friends in the backyard!"

"You know what, you really do look like that Zhang Dabiao." Just then, Li Yunlong blurted out. He Yuzhu pretended not to recognize him and asked, "Uncle Zhao, who is this?!"

Zhao Gang said, "He's your uncle's former boss."

He Yuzhu feigned embarrassment, "Oh! I'm so sorry! Please forgive me, sir! I didn't know you were my uncle's boss, please forgive me."

Li Yunlong sized up He Yuzhu and asked, "You're in good shape, kid. Want to join the army with me?"

He Yuzhu said, "Uncle, I want to join the army. But my family's situation doesn't allow it. My father was tricked by the people in our compound and ran off to Baocheng with a widow. My sister and I are all alone at home. If I leave, what will happen to my sister?!"

Li Yunlong sighed and asked, "What's wrong with you right now, kid?!"

"No problem!" He Yuzhu replied decisively, then continued, "The most difficult time for my brother and me is over. Now things are starting to get better every day." As he spoke, He Yuzhu stood up, walked to the cabinet, took out a pack of cigarettes from the cabinet, and put it on the table.

Li Yunlong laughed and said, "You're pretty good, kid! You have a good eye." With that, Li Yunlong picked up the cigarette pack on the table, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and casually stuffed it into his pocket. Then he asked, "Do you have a job now?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "Yes! Aunt Wang Xia found me a job at the Military Control Commission."

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were immediately relieved when they heard Wang Xia introduce a job to He Yuzhu. Zhao Gang hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Do you know about Wang Xia's relationship with your uncle?!"

He Yuzhu nodded and replied, "I know! Aunt Wang told me everything."

Li Yunlong took a deep drag on his cigarette and said, "If I hadn't been seriously injured back then, your uncle wouldn't have died."

He Yuzhu comforted him, saying, "Uncle, sacrifices are inevitable in war. Since my uncle has already sacrificed his life, those who are still alive should live their lives well. Only then will his sacrifice have meaning."

"Brother!" Just then, He Yushui ran in from outside. Seeing a stranger in the house, she cautiously walked to He Yuzhu's side, while secretly glancing at Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang.

He Yuzhu said, "They are Uncle's superiors. Quickly call them Uncle!"

He Yushui called out in a soft voice, "Uncle." Then she ran to He Yuzhu's side and hid in his arms, while secretly glancing at Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong.

He Yuzhu and the other two were amused by He Yushui's appearance. Zhao Gang raised his wrist to check the time on his watch and said, "Old Li, it's getting late, we should go."

Li Yunlong glanced at his watch and said, "It really is! We're leaving now. If you need anything in the future, feel free to come find us."

"Thank you, Uncle Li!" He Yuzhu led He Yushui out the door with Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong, escorting them all the way to the courtyard gate. As He Yuzhu watched them walk out of the alley and was about to take He Yushui home, Liu Haizhong appeared before them. Liu Haizhong said, "He Yuzhu, who were those two people just now?!"

"My relative!" He Yuzhu replied, then said to He Yushui, "Yushui, let's go home!"

Liu Haizhong watched He Yuzhu and his sister's retreating figures, a displeased look on his face. He huffed and puffed, "They have absolutely no manners!"
