"Alright, I'll go back first. You should sleep early too. You still have to work tomorrow.”
After Qin Huiru thought about it carefully, Yi Zhonghai prepared to go home. However, he was dumbfounded.
The Jia family's door was closed, but the problem was that it was locked from the outside.
Yi Zhonghai's heart skipped a beat. He knew that he had been discovered.
"Who is it? He's too wicked." Yi Zhonghai cursed.
"First Uncle, what's wrong?" Qin Huairu looked on in confusion.
"The door is locked." Yi Zhonghai said helplessly.
"What?"
Qin Huairu was stunned. She hurriedly opened the door, but she couldn't open it no matter how hard she tried. Indeed, it was locked from the outside.
Obviously, someone had found out about it, but did not make a sound. Instead, they locked Yi Zhonghai in the Jia family's residence.
If everyone saw Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huiru, and Qin Jingru locked in the same room tomorrow morning, their reputations would be ruined.
As for Xiao Dang and Huai Hua, they were still young, so there was no need to worry.
Although Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huiru did not do anything, no one would believe that they were locked in the same room!
"What should we do?" Qin Huairu panicked.
Yi Zhonghai had no idea.
The window was too small to climb out.
Kicking down the door? The commotion was too great.
"Why don't you hide for now? I'll get someone to pick the lock. When they leave, you can find a chance to go home.”Qin Huairu thought of an idea.
"I'm afraid the person who locked the door will be troublesome.”Yi Zhonghai was worried.
"I'll act according to the situation!" Qin Huairu said.
"Alright then!" Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a moment before agreeing to Qin Huairu's suggestion.
The Jia family's house was not big, and there were not many places to hide. In the end, Yi Zhonghai hid in the cupboard.
When Yi Zhonghai hid, Qin Huairu started to call for help.
"Someone come!"
Qin Jingru, Xiao Dang, and Huai Hua were the first to wake up.
"Cousin, what's wrong?" Qin Jingru asked.
"I was going to the toilet, but some wicked person locked the door.”Qin Huairu said.
"What? This is too wicked!" Qin Jingru was also speechless.
It was a pity that Shazhu was in labor reform, and He Yushui lived and ate at the unit. He rarely came back, so he was not in the compound today.
As Qin Huairu called for help, the first person to arrive outside the Jia family's residence was a middle-aged woman.
"Why is it locked?"
When a middle-aged woman woke up and realized that Yi Zhonghai was not at home, she did not think too much about it and went to Qin Huiru's place first.
When she saw that the Jia family's door was locked and Qin Huiru was still locked inside, a middle-aged woman was shocked.
"I don't know which wicked person it is.”
"I got up to go to the toilet, but I can't get out.”
"Auntie, help me pick the lock first.”
Qin Huairu said from inside the house.
"Alright." A middle-aged woman quickly agreed.
Qin Huiru was also calculating in her heart when the middle-aged woman picked the lock.
Once a middle-aged woman picked the lock, she would create an opportunity for Yi Zhonghai to slip away. Then, she would hold a meeting to find the person who locked the door. If the person said that Yi Zhonghai was in the Jia family, Qin Huairu would deny it and Yi Zhonghai would definitely deny it.
Now, Qin Huairu was very angry.
The person who locked the door was too wicked.
If anyone found out, Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai would not be able to explain themselves.
Giving noodles to a widow in the middle of the night made people think too much. He even entered the widow's house. Even Silly Zhu wouldn't believe it.
However, the auntie did not know how to pick the lock. She tried for a long time but failed.
Liu Haizhong's family, Xu Damao, the Yan family, Wang Changgui and his wife, Zhao Dade, Aunt Liu…
Other than the deaf old lady, only a few children did not come.
It was bustling outside the Jia family's house.
"Eh? Why isn't Old Yi here? Don't tell me he's locked up in the Jia family!" Liu Haizhong said with a smile.
"Old Liu, don't slander my Old Yi. He wouldn't do such a thing.”A middle-aged woman was angry when she heard what Liu Haizhong said.
"Sister-in-law, don't be angry. I was wrong.”Liu Haizhong quickly apologized.
"Humph!" A middle-aged woman's face was cold.
However, it was indeed a little strange that Yi Zhonghai had yet to appear.
Some people went to the toilet to take a look, but Yi Zhonghai did not go.
Many people looked at the Jia family.
Now, it seemed that Yi Zhonghai was very likely to be in the Jia family.
She knew that Yi Zhonghai liked to send noodles to Qin Huiru in the middle of the night. However, if he was locked up in the Jia family's residence, only a fool would believe that he had not done anything. No, even a fool like Silly Zhu would not believe it.
"I think First Uncle might really be in the Jia family.”Xu Damao said as if he wanted the world to be in chaos.
"Xu Damao, I don't allow you to say that about Old Yi. Old Yi is a good person. He can help a little widow in the middle of the night.”Liu Haizhong said righteously.
A middle-aged woman really wanted to rip Liu Haizhong's mouth off. She thanked Liu Haizhong's entire family on behalf of Yi Zhonghai.
"Pick this lock first." Yan Jiecheng said.
"I'll do it." Liu Guangfu volunteered.
Liu Guangfu picked the lock in no time. No one would believe him if he said it was his first time doing it.
After the lock was picked, Qin Huairu opened the door.
Liu Haizhong wanted to search the Jia family's residence. How could Qin Huiru agree to it? She would not agree no matter what.
"Second Uncle, my cousin is also at home and has two children. How can First Uncle be at my house? You're bullying my widow and son.”As she spoke, Qin Huairu started crying, looking aggrieved.
"Sister Qin, there's a problem with your excuses!”Xu Damao laughed.
"Go away, you little acorn." Qin Huairu.
" You..." Xu Damao was about to explode. He hated the nickname Little Acorn so much that he could even call him Silly Mao.
With a cold expression, Xu Damao threw caution to the wind. He pushed Qin Huairu away and barged into the Jia residence.
The Jia family was not big, and there were even fewer places to hide.
After a while, Xu Damao opened the Jia family's cabinet and saw Yi Zhonghai hiding in it.
"First Uncle, why are you hiding in the Jia family's cabinet?”Xu Damao asked with a smile.
"It's over." Qin Huairu's face turned pale.
" Old Yi, you…" The middle-aged woman's eyes widened. She trusted her husband, but Yi Zhonghai had disappointed her.
Liu Haizhong was the happiest. He had long wanted to go from being the second boss to being the boss. Now that Yi Zhonghai had made a mistake, his chance had come.
Yi Zhonghai was not fit to be the steward of the courtyard. He had to be removed.
With Yi Zhonghai removed from his post, Liu Haizhong became the First Master, and the Third Master became the Second Master. As for whether there would be a new Third Master, that was another matter.
"Old Yi, oh Old Yi, since you've given me a chance, I won't let it go.”Liu Haizhong thought.
"Old Yi, did you really have an affair with Qin Huairu?”Yan Bugui looked at Yi Zhonghai in disbelief.
He did not expect Yi Zhonghai to be like this.
Yi Zhonghai's face darkened. What he feared came true.
Although he could not explain it clearly, Yi Zhonghai still tried his best to explain.
"Everyone, don't misunderstand. I'm just giving some noodles. I'm afraid it will cause a misunderstanding in the courtyard.”
"I don't know which wicked person locked the door, but it still caused everyone to misunderstand.”
"Everyone should know what kind of person I am.”
However, no matter how eloquent Yi Zhonghai was, no one believed him.
"Grandpa Yi, I don't think the person who locked the door is wicked. The person who entered the widow's house in the middle of the night is really wicked.”Liu Guangtian said.
Although he had offended Yi Zhonghai, Liu Guangtian was not afraid.
Liu Haizhong smiled. He wasn't angry at his son for saying that about Yi Zhonghai.
Since he wanted to remove Yi Zhonghai from his position as the manager, he had to put a label on Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai was too ashamed to be the boss. Even if Yi Zhonghai was thick-skinned, no one would agree.
"I believe in Old Yi." A middle-aged woman sighed and spoke up for Yi Zhonghai.
"Is everyone trying to force me to death? First Uncle treats me like his own daughter, and I promised to support him in his old age.”Qin Huairu cried.
Everyone knew that Yi Zhonghai's top priority was to retire. Now that Qin Huairu had said so, some people believed her.
However, Liu Haizhong did not want to let Yi Zhonghai off easily.
"According to what Qin Huairu said, it's not something shameful. Why do you secretly send Korean noodles in the middle of the night? Couldn't it be in broad daylight? You, Old Yi, taught Silly Zhu to help the Jia family. They did it openly, but you did it secretly. Don't you have any ulterior motives?”
"Who are you afraid of when you do good deeds? Why are you hiding in the widow's closet?”
"Old Yi, you're quite wild. Isn't it enough for Qin Huairu to be a widow?”
"This is a serious lifestyle problem.”
"If you ask me, I should report it."
……
Yi Zhonghai was scared out of his wits when he heard that someone wanted to report him. There was no way to explain this. Once he reported him, he would be in prison for at least ten years. He might even be in prison for the rest of his life.
Qin Jingru also shouted," I didn't sleep with Yi Zhonghai. I'm still innocent. I can go to the hospital to get a certificate."”
Qin Jingru had to speak up when it concerned her innocence.
"Cousin, I didn't expect you to have an affair with Yi Zhonghai. Disgusting.”
Qin Jingru backstabbed her cousin.
When she saw Yi Zhonghai hiding in the cabinet, Qin Jingru also thought that Yi Zhonghai and her cousin had an affair.
No matter how Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huiru explained, others might believe them, but Qin Jingru would never believe them.
If these two people were innocent, she, Qin Jingru, would be a fool, a fool even more foolish than Silly Zhu.
"Let's hold a full-court meeting!" Yan Bugui said.
"We have to hold a full-court meeting." Liu Haizhong was very enthusiastic.
"Should we tell the old lady too?" Yan Jiekuang asked.
"It's such a big matter. It's better to tell the old lady!”Liu Haizhong said.
"I'll go." Liu Guangtian ran to the backyard.
When everyone arrived at the front yard, Liu Guangtian also came with the old lady on his back.
Liu Guangtian also told the old lady what had happened. The old lady was also angry. She knew that Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu had not done anything bad, but since the two of them were locked in the room, it was hard to explain.
"You, what do you want me to say?”The old lady was furious when she saw Yi Zhonghai.
Grandmother Qi had asked Yi Zhonghai to deliver noodles to Qin Huairu more than once, but Yi Zhonghai liked to deliver them in the middle of the night.
Yi Zhonghai seemed to have forgotten the lesson from last time. This time, he actually entered the widow's house. Would he have to sleep with the widow next time?
"Old Madam, you must believe me.”Yi Zhonghai.
The auntie stopped talking. She was angry too.
In addition, everyone was also curious about who locked the door.
