The next morning, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
Zhang An yawned and opened his eyes in satisfaction.
Zhang An could not help but laugh out loud as he recalled the trip to the Jia family last night.
"After giving the Jia family such a big gift, the Jia family is probably still sleeping! Especially Jia Dongxu, put on your hat!”
Zhang An muttered to himself as he lifted the blanket and opened the system interface.
When it was time for the rewards for the Fishing Sign In, Zhang An immediately muttered,""Start fishing!"
Congratulations to the host for fishing successfully! Temperament 10!
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the prank reward: A Loving and Affectful Talisman!] A sleepwalking talisman! One Bad Luck Talisman! He used a talisman!
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the basic resource: 80 Great Unity Cards!] A big carp in the Yellow River! 300 catties of grain ticket each!
The rewards he had obtained today quickly caught Zhang An's attention.
"Love Talisman? A sleepwalking talisman? What a strange name!"
Zhang An casually opened the description of these two talismans.
Soon, he was shocked by the explanation.
[Love and Affection Talisman: There are two charms, Love and Affection. The target selected by the Love and Affection Talisman will fall hopelessly in love with the target selected by the Love and Affection Talisman. The effective time is one month!]
[Dreamwalking Talisman: After selecting a target, the target will be haunted by nightmares and will act according to the dream!]
"If that's the case, if we use this Love and Affection Talisman, wouldn't Silly Zhu fall in love with Jia Zhangshi?”
Zhang An revealed an evil smile and quickly put away today's reward.
"This is going to be fun!"
.......
At the same time, in the Jia family's house.
Jia Zhangshi, Jia Dongxu, and the stick guy, who had passed out drunk, also woke up in a daze.
"I feel dizzy!"
Jia Zhang-shi held her head, frowning as she slowly sat up.
"Where is Zhang An? Didn't he come to our house as a guest? Why don't I see him?"
"The sky is already bright. He must have left long ago!”
Jia Dongxu heard Jia Zhangshi's question and noticed the sunlight outside the window. He explained.
"Grandma, I'm so hungry!"
"I'm a little hungry too. Didn't Zhang An bring chicken soup yesterday? It shouldn't be!"
Jia Zhang-shi licked her lips. The fat on the corner of her mouth that had been stained by the chicken butt had now formed a lump.
The moment it touched her saliva, it melted.
Jia Zhang-shi seriously savoured the delicious taste of the chicken.
She looked up and saw the table full of chicken bones that she hadn't cleaned up yet.
She immediately thought that it was leftovers.
Jia Zhangshi looked at the stick with a smile and then said,"My good grandson, you ate so much chicken yesterday. Why are you still hungry?”
The stick also licked its lips, and the tip of its tongue was stained with the taste of the chicken.
However, he was not satisfied and said to Jia Zhangshi,""Grandma, I still want to eat chicken! I'm not full yet!"
"Next time we look for Zhang An, we'll ask him for more! He's a prodigal, and he's been controlled by me. Wouldn't it be easy for him to get chicken dinner in the future?”
"Qin Huairu, take these chicken bones and make some soup for the stick!”
Jia Zhangshi ordered Qin Huiru as she explained to the stick.
Hearing Jia Zhangshi's shout, Qin Huiru was shocked.
She slowly stood up, but she seemed to be unable to stand steadily as she staggered back a few steps.
Jia Zhang-shi saw her like this and sneered,"You can't even walk properly? I think you're just too full. You need to exercise!”
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu's heart immediately started to mutter.
I did eat quite a lot yesterday, but if you say that I didn't exercise, then you're wrong!
That amount of exercise is enough for me to digest for a while.
..........
The sky gradually brightened, and the beasts in the courtyard woke up one after another.
With dark circles under his eyes, Yi Zhonghai yawned a few times listlessly.
Last night, he did not sleep at all.
His mind was filled with memories of what Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong had told him in the afternoon.
Now, Silly Zhu was arrested for stealing.
Ever since the Deaf Old Lady was arrested by the police, she had no idea what was going on.
He had been running around for the past few days, but the police station refused to reveal any information at all.
He was just being perfunctory with Yi Zhonghai. The case of the deaf old lady's fake five-guarantee household was still in the interrogation stage, so he had to wait for the results.
This period of torment felt like years to Yi Zhonghai.
What if the Deaf Old Lady was really found out?
The next unlucky person would definitely be him, Yi Zhonghai!
Yi Zhonghai finally understood that even if the Deaf Old Lady did not betray him, the police would find out about him sooner or later.
After all, she had no one to rely on in the city back then. She did not even know anyone.
If there was no help from others, how could he get the status of a household guaranteed by the Five Elements?
Yi Zhonghai regretted his stupidity back then.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was in a hurry to stabilize his position in the Siheyuan, he would have helped the Deaf Old Lady to become a five-guarantee household.
It was impossible for him to be involved.
But now, he was alone.
If the Deaf Old Lady really fell, the police officers would definitely not believe his explanation.
Moreover, he did not have any evidence at all!
It was even more impossible for the Deaf Old Lady to explain for him!
She could not even save herself, so how could she have the time to speak up for Yi Zhonghai?
Now, the only breakthrough point was Zhang An!
As a true descendant of a martyr, he was the only one who helped him put in a good word in front of the police.
Only then could this matter be dealt with leniently!
After all, this matter had happened a long time ago, and these police officers just had to fall for it!
Zhang An was now a big shot in the rolling mill, and he was the descendant of a martyr.
As long as he could speak up for them, wouldn't the trouble be resolved with a nod from the police officers?
The matter with Silly Zhu could only be put aside for now!
After all, if he was arrested, why would he need to consider the issue of retirement?
Aunt Yi woke up as well. She yawned and saw Yi Zhonghai's tired face.
"Old Yi, what's wrong? Didn't you rest well last night?"
"Don't disturb me. I'm annoyed now!”
Yi Zhonghai lifted the blanket and didn't answer Aunt Yi's question.
Seeing his impatient look, Aunt Yi's heart was filled with anger.
"Why are you angry at me? If it wasn't for you making a mistake back then and sucking up to the Deaf Old Lady, would you have ended up like this today? I warned you long ago not to get involved in this muddy water! You refused to listen. You've made yourself look like chicken feathers!"
"Don't talk about it after the fact. If it weren't for the care of the deaf old lady all these years, how could we have stood firm in the courtyard house? Let's not talk about others. Just that bangs alone would have definitely climbed onto my head long ago!”
Yi Zhonghai glared at Aunt Yi and scolded her.
As soon as she said this, Aunt Yi was so angry that her head went dizzy.
She raised her hand and pointed at Yi Zhonghai's nose.""You still have the nerve to say that? All these years, apart from helping you to fight and kidnapping you, what benefits has the deaf old lady given us? I'm the one who goes to the backyard to take care of her all the time, and you've taken all the advantages. Now that something has happened to her, don't even think about distancing yourself from it!”
Yi Zhonghai was not in the mood to argue with Aunt Yi anymore.
He flung his sleeves, put on his clothes, and slammed the door.
"You only know how to throw a tantrum at me. If you're really reasonable, go and talk to the police!”
Aunt Yi shouted at the door.
She was so angry that she covered herself with the blanket and turned around to sleep again.
...........
Yi Zhonghai walked out of the house in a huff and squatted at the door to smoke.
At this juncture, even Aunt Yi was quarreling with him.
Yi Zhonghai's mind was in a mess, and the anger in his heart was getting heavier and heavier.
However, if he wanted to get away with it now, he could only ask Zhang An for help.
However, he had almost fallen out with Zhang An in the workshop yesterday. If he went to beg him now, would he agree?
Yi Zhonghai was thinking about it.
She suddenly looked up and saw Zhang An pushing his bicycle to work.
Yi Zhonghai rolled his eyes. He felt that this was a good opportunity to plead with him.
Begging him in the yard was better than begging him in the rolling mill, right?
Moreover, she was now the deputy director of the workshop.
If he didn't agree and accused him of slacking off at work, it would be a huge loss.
Yi Zhonghai quickly threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground and stepped on it.
She composed herself and put on a sincere expression as she quickly walked up to Zhang An.
"An, An! Wait!"
Seeing Yi Zhonghai blocking the road, Zhang An did not need to guess to know that he was definitely here for the Deaf Old Lady.
However, he had already made up his mind. It was impossible for him to put in a good word for him.
Zhang An glanced at Yi Zhonghai coldly.
"Yi Zhonghai, what's the matter?"
Seeing Zhang An's cold attitude, Yi Zhonghai's heart instantly turned cold.
He didn't even need to say anything. Just by looking at her like this, she had already rejected him.
Yi Zhonghai knew that if he were to speak so bluntly again, the result would be the same as yesterday.
He had to think of a way!
Otherwise, if she was rejected by Zhang An twice in a row, there would be no turning back for the Deaf Old Lady!
Cold sweat broke out on Yi Zhonghai's forehead.
After some thought, he quickly came up with an idea.
Yi Zhonghai was prepared to use Silly Zhu as a cover to criticize him and gain Zhang An's favor.
Anyway, if he was caught, Silly Zhu would have no value to him.
Raising a stupid pillar for a thousand days, using a stupid pillar for a moment!
When it was time to betray, he should be decisive!
When Yi Zhonghai regained his innocence, it would not be too late to consider the issue of retirement!
Therefore, Yi Zhonghai pretended to be righteous.
He said to Zhang An pretentiously,"An…No, Director Zhang! I want to apologize to you first!"
"Apologize? Yi Zhonghai, what are you doing?”
Zhang An was a little surprised to hear Yi Zhonghai's irrelevant words.
Seeing that Zhang An was not in a hurry to chase him away, Yi Zhonghai quickly shook his head and began his performance again.
"Director Zhang, as the number one boss in the courtyard, I didn't do my duty well. There was a thief like Silly Zhu in the courtyard.”
Hearing this, Zhang An couldn't help but smile.""Yi Zhonghai, I didn't know you had such a high level of awareness.”
"Director Zhang, you must be joking! No matter if it was in the courtyard or the rolling mill, I was always such an upright person! Silly Zhu's hands and feet were dirty, he had to be severely punished!”
Yi Zhonghai did not hear Zhang An's sarcasm and continued to stomp on the silly pillar.
"Don't worry, when Silly Zhu returns, I will definitely teach him a lesson! Let him reflect on himself in the courtyard. We can't let this kind of person ruin the atmosphere of our courtyard!”
"Alright, Yi Zhonghai, since you've said so, I'll tell Silly Zhu the truth!”
Zhang An smiled. Then, he pushed his bicycle and planned to leave.
Zhang An did not play by the rules, which confused Yi Zhonghai.
According to his script, since he had already said so much, shouldn't Zhang An praise him properly?
Then, he would take the opportunity to tactfully tell her about the deaf old lady again.
Zhang An had been kidnapped by such a moral threat, so he definitely had to relent.
But now?
He actually said he wanted to tell Silly Zhu the truth?
Yi Zhonghai was a little flustered. He quickly went up and stopped Zhang An.
However, before he could speak, Zhang An frowned and rolled his eyes at him.
"Yi Zhonghai, are you done?"
"Director Zhang, I actually…"
Yi Zhonghai was nervous and didn't know how to continue.
Seeing his conflicted look, Zhang An guessed that this old man had ulterior motives.
He had stopped her again and again, so she was definitely here to help him get away with his crime.
Yi Zhonghai hesitated.
The tactic of using Silly Pillar as a cover had failed. He did not know how to continue the topic.
She was thinking about how to lead the topic to the fake identity.
However, at this moment, Xu Damao appeared at the wrong time.
Xu Damao was also preparing to go to work.
She saw Yi Zhonghai talking to Zhang An as soon as she stepped out of the door.
He felt that it was new, so he went up to talk to her.
"An, Yi Zhonghai, what are you two talking about?”
Seeing that Xu Damao had come, Zhang An beat him at his own game.
Didn't Yi Zhonghai want to use Silly Pillar to gain sympathy?
Then I'll help you publicize it!
Zhang An smiled at Xu Damao and immediately explained,""Brother Damao, Yi Zhonghai apologized to me just now! He felt that it was because he didn't educate Silly Zhu well, which led to a thief like Silly Zhu appearing in the courtyard. He planned to wait for Silly Zhu to return and let her reflect on herself in front of the entire academy!”
"Is there anything wrong with my ears? How could Yi Zhonghai say that?”
Zhang An's explanation stunned Xu Damao.
Yi Zhonghai, the person who was counting on Silly Zhu to help him in his old age, actually stepped on Silly Zhu?
Xu Damao felt that it was new.
He smiled at Yi Zhonghai and asked,""Yi Zhonghai, did you really say that? Do you really want Silly Zhu to reflect on himself in front of the entire academy?”
Yi Zhonghai was now being held up by Zhang An on a bonfire. He could not get down no matter what.
He still had to beg Zhang An for help. After being asked by Xu Damao, he could only bite the bullet and nod.
"Not bad, Yi Zhonghai. I didn't expect even you to become so selfless! Criminals like Silly Zhu who stole resources from the steel mill should be punished severely! I'll be the first to support you!"
Xu Damao smiled and patted Yi Zhonghai's shoulder, affirming his decision.
Liu Haizhong happened to see Xu Damao praising Yi Zhonghai.
He was still puzzled. When did their relationship become so good?
When he got closer to ask, he found out that Yi Zhonghai had threatened to punish Silly Zhu severely.
Liu Haizhong's expression changed as he sized up Yi Zhonghai.
"Yi Zhonghai, did you take the wrong medicine? You want to punish Silly Zhu? Why? Is Aunt Yi pregnant or something? Don't you expect Silly Zhu to help you in your old age?!”
Yi Zhonghai's face darkened when he heard Liu Haizhong's words.
He was already annoyed by this matter.
However, Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong, these two idiots, came to join in.
With the two of them stirring up trouble, the matter of asking Zhang An for help would be delayed again!
Yi Zhonghai didn't want to bother with these two anymore.
He turned around and was about to leave.
However, at this moment, the other beasts in the courtyard heard the commotion.
These people surrounded Yi Zhonghai and pointed at him with surprised expressions.
"Yi Zhonghai, did the sun rise from the west? Did I hear wrongly? You want to punish Silly Zhu?"
"Didn't you expect Silly Zhu to help you in your old age? Why? Do you want to die?"
"I have to say, Yi Zhonghai is being fair for once! We have to support him!"
“.........”
Yi Zhonghai listened to everyone's mocking and praising words. He was angry but did not dare to show it.
While everyone was discussing with Yi Zhonghai, Zhang An had already pushed his bicycle to work.
Seeing Zhang An leave, Yi Zhonghai finally understood that he had been played by him again!
He was so angry that his entire body trembled."Damn it! Zhang An tricked me again!"
