"Let's go. Let's send the old lady back to her room before going home.”
He Yuzhu was about to squat down and carry her on his back when He Yuheng stopped him and said,"Brother, let me do it."
Then, he came to the old lady's side and said,"Grandma, I'll carry you back to the house!"
"Hey! Alright, my good grandson!"
Seeing He Yuheng take the initiative to carry her, the old lady smiled so widely that her teeth could not be seen.
"Slow down." He Yuzhu reminded him.
He Yuheng carefully carried the old lady on his back and walked towards the old lady's house.
"Come, come, sit slowly."
............................................................
He Yuheng carefully placed the old heaven on the brick bed. This was a living ancestor. The old lady's father and husband were brave and fearless anti-Japanese soldiers who protected their country and sacrificed themselves on the battlefield. As the widow of a martyr, the old lady was highly respected by the people in the courtyard. No one dared to provoke her. When Qin Huairu's mother-in-law was still a young lady, the old lady was already the ancestor of the courtyard.
"Brother, tell me the truth. You know very well who stole this chicken, right?”
As soon as he put down the old lady, He Yuheng asked He Yuzhu. He knew that Qin Huairu's eldest son had stolen it, so he deliberately said it for Qin Huairu, who had followed him in.
Qin Huairu's expression turned unnatural when she heard that. She subconsciously rubbed her hands together, revealing the uneasiness in her heart.
"Of course I don't know! If I knew, I would have been framed by that grandson Xu Damao.”
"Brother, don't be so agitated. Did you see that? The ancestor is laughing. Your personality hasn't changed even after so many years. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that you're lying. Hurry up, this matter was a moral issue, but it was illegal to steal other people's property. If Xu Damao reported it to the police, he would go to jail.”
He Yuheng deliberately emphasized the words " police " and " prison ". Of course, he was only scaring his elder brother and Qin Huiru.
Qin Huairu's face turned pale the moment she heard that. She did not dare to face the security department or the police station.
"Then I stole it!"
"Get lost. Brother, if you stole some leftovers from the canteen, I'll believe you. However, I won't believe that you stole someone else's chicken. Let me tell you, you better tell me everything you know about this matter quickly. Otherwise, I'll call the police.”
"Hey, hey, hey, are you my biological brother? Why are you helping him find a chicken?"
My dear brother, of course I'm helping you. This is a good opportunity to solve Qin Huiru's problem in one go.
However, with Qin Huairu standing at the side, even if my brother wanted to speak the truth, he couldn't. Hence, He Yuheng turned around and said to Qin Huiru,"
"Sister Qin, look, I'm talking to my brother about some private matters. It's getting late…"
Qin Huairu knew that he was sending her away. He meant that the rest of his words were not suitable for her.
"Ah, alright, you guys chat first." I'll go back first."
Then, he left with a heavy heart.

"My good grandson is smart!"
The old lady heard the whole story and smiled at He Yuheng.
He Yuheng deliberately said to please the old lady,"Of course! Otherwise, why would he be your good grandson?”
Was He Yuzhu not smart? He was deliberately sending Qin Huairu away and was also saying something about whether she was smart or not. Naturally, he understood the reason behind it.
"You already knew, didn't you?”
"Do you think I'm stupid? You're not willing to say it. It's obvious that the person who really stole the chicken is someone you know and are close to. Looking at Sister Qin's guilty look, he could guess that it was about right. It must be that punk who stole from your house. As time passed, bad habits came out.”
He Yuzhu said,"You're right."”
"Of course! Unlike you, who was so stupid as to be a scapegoat.”
Grandmother Qi complained to He Yuzhu.
"I'm just…You know, Qin Huairu is a widow. It's quite difficult for her to take care of three children and a mother-in-law…I'll help if I can.”
"Brother, we can help people, but we can't do that with our scoring method. Moreover, you're allowing the meme to make a mistake. Don't do it because it's a small crime."
He Yuzhu was a reasonable person. He nodded and said,"I only understood the first half of the sentence. Alright, I understand. Thinking about this matter further, I did indeed do something wrong.”
"That's right. You saved others and sacrificed yourself.”He Yuheng teased.
He Yuzhu smiled and didn't say anything.
"Brother, it's not that I want to criticize you, but conniving at a crime is the same as committing a crime. If you find out that you didn't report it, you're an accomplice. If you indulge him in making mistakes today, he might not think much of it. In the future, he might continue to do things with a clear conscience. What if he went to the factory to steal in the future?”
He Yuzhu pondered silently and waited for him to continue.
"If he's caught, he'll have to be locked up in the juvenile detention center for proper discipline.”
As He Yuheng spoke, he craned his neck and stole a glance outside. He knew that Qin Huairu must be eavesdropping outside.
This courtyard was made of wooden doors and was not soundproof. The slightest movement could alarm the entire courtyard. These words were said for her to hear. He was afraid that she would not eavesdrop.
"It can't be!"
"How could it not be? Let me tell you, when I was in the countryside, I personally saw a child who was about the size of a stick stealing. After he was caught by the community, he was directly sent to the juvenile detention center. What kind of place was a juvenile detention center? That was a place for reform through labor. It was equivalent to a prison for young people. The people locked up inside were all hooligans who did not learn well. Other than fighting, there was nothing else. In serious cases, they even caused a life!”
The word " human life " carried too much weight. Qin Huairu, who was outside the door, felt a lingering fear in her heart as her body trembled non-stop.
"No, then who would know if you don't tell me?”
"You don't have to say it this time, but it won't happen again. If I find out about this again, I'll put justice above family and personally send him to the juvenile detention center. By disciplining this stick, it could be considered as doing a good deed for Brother Jia in the netherworld. What a cute child. Why did he not learn well at such a young age and do such sneaky things! He wondered how Sister Qin usually disciplined her children.”
Qin Huairu heard every word that he said and felt a deep pain in her heart.
When her husband passed away, the little locust flower was still in her stomach. She was also pushed by fate to take up the burden of the family alone. Qin Huiru believed that although she was busy working to earn money to support the family, she did not neglect her child's education.
