The courtyard house, without the script of Sha Zhu.

Chapter 11: Reactions within the Courtyard, Cao Wei's Preparation for Blackmail

Upon hearing this, the military control commission members nodded in agreement.

One of them headed towards compound number 95.

On the other side, after the military control committee took away the three elderly men and the Jia family mother and son.

Cao Wei simply took out 30,000 yuan and gave the man the money.

After that, she stepped into her own room without hesitation and began a cleaning session.

They ruthlessly threw all the belongings of the Jia family, the Yan family, and even the Liu family near their own doorstep.

Then, looking at the three families without any mercy, he said, "You either take this garbage back, or I'll just call a scrap metal collector."

After saying that, Cao Wei picked up his bundle and stepped back into the He family home, then closed the door behind him.

At that moment, the other beastly neighbors couldn't help but discuss among themselves, but they all reached a consensus.

Cao Wei, who recently moved in, is not someone to be trifled with.

At the same time, the faces of the Liu family, the Yan family, and the Yi family all turned extremely grim, but soon...

Yang Ruihua and Zhou Xiuying looked at Li Mei with eyes that seemed capable of killing.

That is, what is commonly referred to as an "old lady".

The two stepped forward, and Zhou Xiuying, who was even more impatient, looked directly at Li Mei and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

"Zhonghai's wife, you have to take responsibility for what happened today. If Yi Zhonghai hadn't said what he did, would we have paid for it and let them move into that house? My husband, Lao Liu, was arrested just like that, and you have to pay for the loss of all this furniture."

At the same time, Yang Ruihua, who was standing to the side, first looked at the furniture that belonged to her family scattered on the ground with some heartache, and then looked at Li Mei with the same unfriendly expression and echoed her.

"That's right. If Yi Zhonghai hadn't said that, how could my family have paid the money? Besides, I, Lao Yan, was beaten and had to go to the military control committee. You also have to give me an explanation for the loss of those glasses and the loss of not being able to go to work."

Faced with their imposing presence, the two seemingly intimidating individuals joined forces.

Li Mei, however, just sneered. After all, she shared a bed with Yi Zhonghai, so how could she really be a spineless coward or a good person?

She merely glanced at the two of them coldly and spoke slowly.

"If it weren't for your two families plotting to seize the He family's house, even if my old man Yi bragged all sorts of nonsense, he wouldn't have been able to harm you. In the end, isn't it just your own greed?"

"Instead of saying so much, we should hurry up and go to the military control commission, or ask around for advice on what to do."

After saying that, Li Mei ignored the two of them and went straight to Old Mrs. Long's room in the backyard, intending to discuss a solution with the deaf old lady.

This made Zhou Xiuying and Yang Ruihua's faces turn extremely ugly.

However, there's simply no way to refute it.

Even when faced with the mocking looks from her neighbors, she couldn't help but feel incredibly humiliated.

To be honest, were these other neighbors good people? No.

If this opportunity were given to them, most people would probably fall for it too.

However, the reason why they were at the forefront, and even the most greedy and stingy Yang Ruihua, did not stop Li Mei, was because they knew the background of the deaf old lady and might actually be able to help the three families.

In the backyard, inside the deaf old lady's house, Li Mei was crying her eyes out, sobbing uncontrollably.

Please make sure the deaf old lady helps Yi Zhonghai.

However, the deaf old lady herself was also very troubled.

To be honest, if Yi Zhonghai himself didn't want to, it would have been very easy for him to extricate himself from this matter.

However, when he thought of Cao Wei's disrespectful attitude, his killing intent was undisguised. But at this moment, he calmed down and said slowly.

"Old Yi is like this because of that unlucky apprentice of the Jia family. Now that Sha Zhu is gone, the Jia family is ultimately unreliable. Why not adopt a child instead?"

"After all, with that troublemaker Jia Zhangshi around, who knows how much trouble she'll cause in the future."

Li Mei was indeed tempted by the former, after all, she was so old and didn't have a child of her own.

At the same time, Li Mei seemed to remember something, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but speak out bitterly.

"It's all because of that new little bastard. He hit someone and then went to report it to the military control commission. And he changed his tune so quickly."

Afterwards, Li Mei also recounted how Cao Wei's attitude changed when he met the people from the Military Control Commission.

The deaf old lady also fell silent. To be honest, she had lost the silly Zhu Zi she wanted, but gained a ruthless character like Cao Wei.

Most importantly, Cao Wei's change of expression shows that he is definitely not just a brute who only knows how to fight, which is troublesome.

Although he was dissatisfied with Cao Wei's public humiliation and even wanted to find someone to deal with him, Cao Wei's skills were such that even if seven or eight strong men joined forces, something unexpected would probably happen.

Moreover, a plan is needed, so we can only put it on hold for now.

On the other side, after returning to his room, Cao Wei couldn't help but chuckle as he reflected on everything that had happened that day.

To be honest, the reason he was willing to come to this courtyard house full of birds was twofold. First, he really didn't want to live in that small, dilapidated house. Second, He Daqing was also teaching his master cooking skills, so he was repaying his master's kindness in a roundabout way.

Third, as a time traveler, he was genuinely a bit unsettled.

Moreover, the people in this courtyard are a bunch of self-righteous fools, but with a little scheming, they're all a group that can rake in gold coins.

This is also something he desperately needs, given his current financial difficulties.

Moreover, he also found the events within this compound amusing.

Why not have some fun? I'll play with these beasts for a few years and then take over this courtyard house.

After all, he knew the true value of this courtyard house in the future.

Just as he had rested for a night, he saw that the military control officers had already arrived at the gate.

Yang Ruihua and Zhou Xiuying were both desperately trying to explain or inquire about what kind of punishment their husbands would face.

He turned pale when he heard he was going to jail, but the military control officers ignored him and went to Li Mei's residence instead.

He stated it bluntly.

"Auntie, your husband said he asked me to come and inform you that if you can't get his forgiveness, you might have to go to jail. The house issue is worth more than a million yuan per person, and during a crackdown, it's even enough to eat peanuts."

After learning the seriousness of the situation, Li Mei was momentarily at a loss.

Afterwards, before the military control committee members were about to leave, Cao Wei approached them and couldn't help but ask them questions.

"Brother, how will this be judged?"

The military control officer couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and said slowly.

"If you can forgive them, each of them will probably only get a month or two in prison at most. It's for embezzling the house, but you found out right away, and you didn't suffer any real loss. Although they did fight back, you beat them up badly. If you don't forgive them, then we'll go through the normal legal process. It'll probably start at a year, but at most three years."

After listening to what the military control committee member said, Cao Wei thoughtfully stroked his chin.

While thanking the people from the military control commission, he was also calculating how much money he should ask from them.

Upon returning to his room, he heard a knock at the door and saw Li Mei appear there; the instant his mind went blank, a plan formed in his mind…
