The courtyard house, without the script of Sha Zhu.
Chapter 24: Realizing the Theft, Wailing and Howling
Unfortunately, this experience taught Cao Wei a lesson.
He even suspected that even if they became poor, these people would still be dishonest.
It is imperative to ensure that Yi Zhonghai is no longer eligible for the eighth-grade worker designation.
Even better, you might as well clean a toilet; perhaps that's the only way.
Only then can the other party obediently follow the script he designed for them, resulting in an ending even more tragic than that of the foolish Zhu.
As for killing Yi Zhonghai, he has no such idea for the time being. After all, sometimes living is worse than being dead.
And to be honest, even though Cao Wei was a time traveler, this experience of directly killing people still left him with some considerable trauma.
I haven't completely let go of it yet.
He just wanted to live, and incidentally kill these beasts.
He has no reason to let these beasts affect him in the slightest.
The next morning, Yi Zhonghai came out with a dark expression the whole time.
There was nothing he could do; in his view, it was obvious that the deaf old woman was taking the money and not doing the job.
Just as he was preparing to question the other party before going to work.
A heart-wrenching scream erupted from his home.
"ah!!"
This really caught Yi Zhonghai off guard.
He recognized the voice as his wife Li Mei's, and went inside, puzzled.
He was shocked to see Li Mei and almost fainted. But what caught his attention even more was where they hid their money.
In that small tin box, where there should have been a large stack of ten-yuan notes, some small yellow croakers, and silver dollars, there was a place where it should have been placed.
At this moment, nothing remains, not a single thing.
Upon witnessing this scene, Yi Zhonghai felt his blood rush to his head, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
He couldn't help but rush to Li Mei's side, his expression even somewhat ferocious and agitated, and couldn't help but question her.
"Xiaomei, did you put the money somewhere else?"
At the same time, somewhat lost in thought, Li Mei simply shook her head helplessly and even gave a self-deprecating laugh.
Some even mechanically recounted what had just happened.
"We don't have much flour left at home. I was thinking of taking some money out today to buy some more."
"As a result, when I opened the lid, I found that everything had vanished."
Yi Zhonghai's eyes were fixed on Li Mei's somewhat numb face.
There was nothing he could do; his savings hadn't arrived yet, which even made him wary of his bedmate. But seeing the genuine expression on the other person's face, he was certain.
Their own money was truly robbed.
This was the savings he had painstakingly accumulated for his retirement.
Upon realizing this, Yi Zhonghai collapsed and sat on the ground.
He couldn't help but mutter it frantically to himself.
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
Although Yi Zhonghai's mood has stabilized a lot after his previous experience, who could remain calm when faced with the theft of all their family's assets?
Meanwhile, a number of beastly neighbors had already gathered in front of their house.
After all, Li Mei's screams just now, coupled with her current state of sitting on the ground, show that one is a somewhat dazed and numb Li Mei, while the other is Yi Zhonghai, whose expression is almost ferocious and insane.
Who wouldn't want to watch such a spectacular show?
However, after realizing what had happened, Li Mei cried her heart out while cursing.
"Who the hell stole all our money?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the beastly neighbors outside reacted with various expressions.
Although many people outwardly expressed sympathy, almost everyone inwardly gloated.
There's nothing we can do; in this courtyard, only a handful of families are truly living well.
Seeing someone else get robbed naturally makes one happy.
At the same time, another person suddenly yelled and fell to the ground, also cursing.
And this person was none other than Jia Zhangshi.
Unfortunately, upon hearing this news, he was equally unable to be happy. In Jia Zhangshi's view, the money of Yi Zhonghai, who had no heir, was already the future wealth of the Jia family.
As a result, Yi Zhonghai's family's money just disappeared like that?
Doesn't this mean the Jia family's money is gone?
This news came as a surprise to Jia Zhangshi, who had previously given Cao Wei a large sum of money.
It would be strange if someone could remain calm.
"Oh! Li Mei, you useless thing, how could you lose the money? That was my..."
This time, before the words were even finished, Jia Dongxu forcefully covered his mother Jia Zhangshi's mouth with his own.
He's not stupid; he wouldn't reveal his mother's thoughts in front of others at this time.
Will my master still treat me well in the future?
After all, Yi Zhonghai's attitude towards him had changed since he gave him the three million.
Yi Zhonghai spent ten million yuan on the Jia family, and was still scolded like that. It would be strange if he didn't hold a grudge.
Jia Dongxu could understand, so he had been putting on an act all this time, behaving like a complete coward, and it took him a lot of effort to finally calm Yi Zhonghai down.
He dared not let his mother add fuel to the fire at this moment.
Furthermore, Jia Dongxu deliberately squatted down and spoke into his mother's ear.
"Mother, although the money was lost, no matter what, my master is still an intermediate-level craftsman. He can still help us save money in the future. I also need his guidance."
Upon hearing this, although Jia Zhangshi was inwardly dissatisfied, she could only offer a forced laugh on the surface.
However, these beastly neighbors weren't stupid; they naturally understood the unspoken meaning behind the other party's words.
At that moment, someone said something.
"Old Yi's house was robbed, what about ours?"
Almost the instant those words were spoken, all of these beasts stopped watching and headed home.
Since the thief has already come, there's a high probability that he won't only steal from one house.
Not long after, three more screams rang out in the courtyard.
"what!"
"what!"
"what!"
These three raids naturally came from the Jia family, the Liu family, and the Yan family.
Inside the Jia family home, Jia Zhangshi was crying in utter despair, calling out to Old Jia while screaming at the top of her lungs.
"Old Jia, hurry up and come up here. Take that damned little bastard away. He actually stole our house!"
However, although Jia Dongxu felt sorry for him, he remained quite calm overall.
The reason for this is that they understand that after emptying their own coffers to give Cao Wei so much money last time.
Their family was practically bankrupt, and in the last couple of days, Jia Zhangshi had even started making him cornbread.
After all, in Jia Zhangshi's view, with such a large sum of money lost, what would happen to her retirement savings? So she could only temporarily make do with what her son had to do.
On the other side, at the Liu family home, Liu Haizhong was looking at his two sons with a gaze that seemed capable of killing.
Indeed, after discovering that all his possessions had been stolen, he couldn't help but look at Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian.
"Did you little beasts take it?"
Upon witnessing this scene, the two brothers, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, shook their heads frantically, but at this moment, all Liu Haizhong needed was an outlet for his pent-up frustration.
At that moment, a sound like ghosts wailing and wolves howling came from the Liu family.
Zhou Xiuying, on the other hand, started yelling, after all, her family's savings had been completely wiped out.
However, the Yan family naturally received the strongest reaction...
