A chandelier hung above the cellar, emitting a dark yellow light.

Liu Haizhong stood in a daze at the place where the vegetables were placed. He panted heavily.

This sound was so clear in the almost enclosed space!

After a while, Liu Hai's voice rang in Ma Hua's ears."

"Ma Hua, I have a favor to ask of you!”

When Ma Hua heard this, he said firmly,"

"Mr. Liu, this matter is indeed too much!”

Liu Haizhong looked at Hua Ma's expression of sharing a common hatred and felt that Hua Ma respected him.

The depression in his heart suddenly dissipated a little as he said,

"Go and inform First Uncle and Third Uncle that we must get to the bottom of this matter today!”

Ma Hua heard this, and his face revealed a look of embarrassment. He said to Liu Haizhong,"

"Master Liu, my wife is still waiting for me, so I'll go inform Teacher Yan later.

Master Yi, I think it's better for you to inform him personally. After all, the two of you are both stewards.

If there's anything, it's better to have an equal dialogue. What do you think?”

Liu Haizhong felt that this was reasonable and said,"

"Alright, then you can go and inform Third Master!”

Liu Hai, who was still fuming, did not realize that Ma Hua had been calling Yi Zhonghai "Master Yi".

And Yan Fugui was "Teacher Yan".

Ma Hua and Lu Ge had never addressed him as "Third Master" or "First Master"!

Ma Hua nodded and left the vegetable cellar, not forgetting to take two cabbages.

After all, his purpose was to get the cabbage.

He couldn't forget his original intentions!

Walking up the ancient stairs, Ma Hua pushed open the ajar wooden door.

As soon as he left the vegetable cellar, Ma Hua felt a cold wind blowing down the back of his head.

This made him instantly feel that it was a mistake not to wear a scarf!

Ma Hua's face no longer had the look of a common enemy. Instead, he slowly took a step forward.

Listen carefully to the melody interwoven between the soles of the shoes and the snow.

He looked extremely relaxed!

Ma Hua didn't care if what happened in the vegetable cellar was caused by a stick or not. He wouldn't get too involved.

After all, from the looks of it, it was most likely a child!

This was because the adults of this era had all come from the old era. It was impossible for them to choose the fresh and juicy heart of cabbage.

If they really found out which family's child did it, it would be fine if it was a reasonable person.

If it wasn't for that, he would have said," He's still a child!”If he refuted it, he might very well become a person inside and outside.

This was because many people in this era agreed with this saying. Anyway, children would always be easily forgiven!

Most importantly, Ma Hua's family had not been harmed, so he was too lazy to find trouble!

After passing through the arch again, Ma Hua went straight to Yan Fugui's house.

Looking at the lit window, she knocked on his door and waited for someone to open it.

"Who is it?" The one who spoke was Third Aunt!

When Ma Hua heard this, he said,"

"I'm Ma Hua. I met Liu Haizhong in the backyard just now. He asked me to call Teacher Yan.

He said he had something to discuss!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Hua saw a thin and tall shadow walk out of the room to where Ma Hua was standing. Then, the door opened.

It was Yan Fugui who came out. He was chewing something in his mouth.

Seeing that it was Ma Hua, Yan Fugui instantly put down his right hand that was holding the door handle. He smiled and said,"

"My family was eating when you spoke just now, but your family's conditions are good.

I won't invite you in!"

Ma Hua didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It turned out that Yan Fugui was afraid that someone would come to his house to freeload, so he had been holding the handle with one hand.

Get ready to close the door at any time!

Seeing this, Ma Hua wanted to tease him and said,"

"Teacher Yan, it's fine. I don't mind your poor food.

Moreover, my family didn't cook enough just now. Since you have the intention to treat me to a meal,

Then it would be impolite of me to refuse!"

After saying that, Ma Hua pretended to go in.

Yan Fugui's face turned green when he saw this. He quickly grabbed Ma Hua's sleeves and said seriously,"

"Next time, Third Uncle will definitely treat you to a meal next time!

"Oh right, didn't you say that Second Master wanted to invite me to a meeting just now? Let's hurry up and leave."

Otherwise, it won't be good to let Old Liu wait!"

After saying this, Yan Fugui closed the door when Ma Hua wasn't paying attention!

After doing all this, Yan Fugui walked to the back!

Ma Hua saw this and shouted at Yan Fugui,"

"Teacher Yan, Master Liu is in the vegetable cellar. Don't go to the wrong place!”

Yan Fugui, who was about to pass through the arched door, paused.

He then turned around and walked up to Ma Hua, asking in confusion,"

"Ma Hua, why did Second Uncle inform me to discuss the matter in the vegetable cellar? What happened?”

Ma Hua told him everything that had happened.

There was absolutely no trace of his own guesses or private goods!

When Yan Fugui heard that, he rubbed his stubbled chin and spun back and forth on the spot, his eyes rolling.

After a while, Yan Fugui came to Ma Hua's side and said,"

"This is probably done by a child from some family in the courtyard. It's not easy to handle!”

Seeing that Ma Hua was about to leave, Yan Fugui went to the direction where Ma Hua was heading home and asked in confusion,"

"Where are you going?"

Ma Hua looked natural when he heard that. He showed Yan Fugui the two cabbages in his hands and said,"

"Teacher Yan, I don't know much anyway. When I'm asked, I'll just say what I should say!

Moreover, I still have to take these two cabbages to my wife. If you stop me and cause the cabbages to be broken or have any other accidents,

Then you have to compensate us the same amount!”

When Old Yan heard that, he quickly made way and pointed at Ma Hua, saying,"

"Why do I have to accompany you when your cabbage spoils?

You still say I'm smart, but I think you're even smarter than me!

Alright, go back and put it down. See if you can get over later!”

After saying this, Yan Fugui left without looking back.

Ma Hua saw this and went home!

February 10th, 1962, the 10th day of the first lunar month, evening.

The location was the vegetable cellar of the courtyard house!

At this moment, the lights in the vegetable cellar were brighter. The flashlight that Yi Zhonghai brought made the originally dark place brighter.

When Yan Fugui arrived, he saw Liu Haizheng gesturing excitedly at Yi Zhonghai.

Seeing Yan Fugui, Yi Zhonghai smiled and said,"

"Old Yan, you're here too?"

Yan Fugui pursed his lips when he heard that. He raised his head towards the direction of his fringe and said,"

"Didn't Old Liu ask me to come here?”

Liu Haizhong saw that Yan Fugui was alone and asked curiously,"

"Where's Ma Hua? Why isn't he here?"

When Yan Fugui heard this, he adjusted his glasses and stood with his hands down.

"Ma Hua basically told me about the situation. He said that he only knew this much and that he wanted to help his wife pickled vegetables.

So he didn't come!

"However, it's not appropriate for him to come. After all, it's the three of us who are in charge of the meeting now."

A young man like him was not qualified to come and listen!”

Looking at Yan Fugui's matter-of-fact expression, Liu Haizhong felt that Old Yan was right.

The authority of the three masters in the courtyard was not allowed to be touched by others, so they said,

"Old Yan, you're indeed a language teacher. What you said was really good. Actually, I thought so too.

I didn't expect you to say it!"

Yi Zhonghai, who was standing at the side, looked at his bangs and thought,

The corners of her eyes twitched a few times.

He glanced at Yan Fugui who was trying to hold back his laughter, then coughed dryly and said,

"Alright, let's get down to business!"

Seeing that the two of them were focused, Yi Zhonghai's eyes flashed and he said,"

"This matter cannot be spread out. Otherwise, how will the streets look at us three stewards?

Moreover, the one who was stolen was you, the second uncle. What do you think the streets will think of you?”

Liu Haizhong was a little angry when he heard that. He said excitedly,

"Old Yi, I'm the victim. The streets will definitely understand me!”

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said,"

"Old Liu, do you think others will guess that when you handled the matters in the quad in the past,

Was it because he was hated by the people in the hospital that he suffered revenge?”

When Liu Haizhong heard that, he was like an old hen whose neck had been strangled. He was speechless!

Yan Fugui, who was watching coldly from the side, felt that what Yi Zhonghai said made sense.

However, he felt that it was not as simple as he had imagined, but he still told her his guess.

When Liu Haizhong heard this, he frowned and began to think about the children in the courtyard who had the ability to do this.

However, Yi Zhonghai looked at Yan Fugui with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He then pretended to be thinking.

Liu Haizhong said to the two of them,

"If he's really a child from the quad, as long as he admits his mistake, as the second uncle, I won't hold it against him.

After all, he was still a child!

But if I can't find it or find it, I'll have to report it to the police!”

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, the slightly solemn look in his eyes dissipated. He said seriously to Liu Haizhong,"

"How about this, you and Old Yan stay here and look for other clues.

I'll go up and ask every door to see if anyone admits it.”

Liu Haizhong nodded in agreement.

When Yan Fugui heard this, the strange feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.

He felt that Yi Zhonghai knew something!

After a while, Yi Zhonghai came to tell Liu Haizhong that he had found it and that it was the work of the Jia family!

Liu Haizhong originally wanted to make things difficult, but when he thought of Jia Zhangshi's slap,

He immediately expressed that he would not pursue the matter, but he would have to compensate for the losses!

When Yan Fugui heard the answer, he glanced at Yi Zhonghai but did not say anything…
