When Shen Lang returned to the courtyard house, it was already close to 10 pm.
In this era where entertainment was extremely scarce.
Moreover, it was in the capital during the cold winter. Most people were asleep.
Shen Lang carefully placed the sleeping girl on the bed.
In this era, there were only a few single-family courtyards and villas.
Most of the commoners lived in large courtyards, and most of the people in the north slept on clay beds.
Especially in the cold winter, it was very warm to have a stove in the room.
As for the heating pipe, it would have to be delayed for several years.
After all, the country was extremely short of steel now. Why would it be used to produce heating pipes and the like?
Shen Lang was not short of money and had a lot of tickets, so he did not need to be as thrifty as the other families in the courtyard house.
His house was very warm, and there were several layers of cotton mattresses on the kang.
As for the thick quilts, he also bought a few.
It was very cold outside, but it was warm and comfortable inside.
The delicate little girl was sleeping very comfortably. No one knew what she was dreaming about, but her little face was still smiling.
Because of the hospital's assembly and the police's investigation, he came back late.
Shen Lang wanted to use hot water to wash the little girl's face and soak her feet to warm them up.
However, seeing that Xiaoxue was sleeping soundly, Shen Lang did not wake her up.
Shen Lang covered her with a blanket and went to the living room to get a cup of hot water.
He was going to drink a cup of hot water to warm up his body and carefully check the functions of the system.
At this moment.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock ~"
It was so cold at night, who would knock on the door?
"Who is it?" Shen Lang asked curiously.”
"I am Yi Zhonghai!" Yi Zhonghai answered from outside the door.
Yi Zhonghai's house was right next to Shen Lang's. He must have something to do if he came over at night.
Although Shen Lang did not want to interact with these beasts, he did not refuse to open the door.
For the sake of his lovely daughter, Snowy, he did not have to suffer the disdain and criticism of the courtyard house.
The little girl was simple-minded and did not have the schemes of the adults.
She couldn't help but let her imagination run wild when it came to the words of the beasts.
Therefore, before Shen Lang moved out of the courtyard house, he tried his best not to have any conflicts with the beasts for the sake of the little girl.
However, if they came to provoke them, they would have to ruthlessly return the favor.
Shen Lang kept a distance from the people in the courtyard house. He still had the basic etiquette of greeting them.
"It's so late. What's the matter, Master Yi?”
After Shen Lang opened the door, he went straight to the point.
He would not believe that this old beast would come back to chat with him in the middle of the night.
Seeing Shen Lang's cold expression, Yi Zhonghai's anger flared up.
However…
For the sake of the meme, he tried his best to restrain himself.
Yi Zhonghai didn't beat around the bush and said in a commanding tone,""Tomorrow, go to the police station and tear out your Xiaoxue's testimony.”
"She's just a four-year-old girl. What she says doesn't count.”
"Even if the pedophile threatened Snowy, it was just a fight between children.”
"You're just a university student. Don't be too calculative. Be more magnanimous to that child.”
Shen Lang could not help but laugh when he heard such a ridiculous and immoral statement.
Immediately after.
His expression turned cold as he stared at Yi Zhonghai and said angrily,""Why? What if I don't go?"
Yi Zhonghai had been suppressing his anger for a long time, but he finally could not help but fly into a rage.
"You're simply unreasonable. Why are you so petty and selfish?" he said angrily.”
Shen Lang's face darkened as he continued to fire,""Am I being petty and selfish? Grandpa One, are you old and muddle-headed?"
"You stole Xu Damao's old hen and even threatened my Xiaoxue.”
"You want me not to argue with him? But what did Jia Zhang-shi do during the assembly?”
"At that time, did Qin Huairu and your First Uncle also speak out to dissuade that old hag?”
Yi Zhonghai's face turned red and white from Shen Lang. He wanted to retort, but he realized that it was true.
Shen Lang did not let him in. He questioned coldly,""Is it wrong for my Little Xue not to lie and tell the truth?”
"That ingrate is full of lies. How dare he steal Xu Damao's chicken now?”
"My daughter's words don't count? Your lies and manipulation of right and wrong are the real ones, right?”
"As the master of the Siheyuan, why are you biased towards Silly Zhu and Qin Huairu's family?”
"Before you persuade me to be magnanimous, you should go and teach a good joke not to steal.”
Yi Zhonghai knew that there was nothing wrong with Shen Lang's question.
However, as the eldest master of the Siheyuan, he was very unhappy to be scolded by a young boy like this.
In his eyes, respecting the old and loving the young was to ask the younger generation to obey their will unconditionally.
As for cherishing children, he was biased towards them for selfish reasons.
This old beast was just like Silly Zhu, a double standard dog!
If not for the fact that they still had to stay in the courtyard house, Shen Lang did not want Snowy to fall into an atmosphere of rolling her eyes and criticizing her.
He couldn't even be bothered to talk to this old beast, let alone open the door for him to talk.
Yi Zhonghai's face was as dark as water, and he questioned in an unfriendly tone,""Are you determined to argue with a child? Aren't you afraid that people will say you're stingy?”
Reputation was indeed very important in this era where food and clothing were scarce.
However, Shen Lang firmly believed that if he did his best, all the rumors would fall apart.
Shen Lang said coldly,""I won't let off anyone who bullied my daughter just now!”
"He stole it himself, so why did he ask my daughter to fake it?”
"If you're so determined, you might as well not be a master.”
"Tomorrow, I'll go to the street office and ask Director Wang for feedback. I'll find someone who can distinguish right from wrong to be the manager.”
When Yi Zhonghai heard that Shen Lang was going to give feedback, he did not dare to continue making things difficult.
He glared at Shen Lang angrily before turning around and leaving.
He even wanted to let that ingrate escape. What was this old beast thinking?
