The Great Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 361 It’s a big deal

When Sha Zhu heard that Xu Damao was going to the police station to report the case again, he didn't care. So what if he did it? Do you have evidence? But he still said it toughly.

"Go ahead. I'm not afraid if you report it to the police. I didn't take it."

The two sides were once again in a stalemate, and the atmosphere in the yard was extremely tense.

Qin Huairu was extremely anxious, as she knew very well that once the matter was reported to the police station, Sha Zhu would likely face serious consequences.

Just when everyone was at a loss, an old man named Yi Zhonghai stood up.

"Xu Damao, don't be impulsive. Even if Zhuzi really took your money, we can still solve the matter in the yard, right? There's no need to go to the police station. Otherwise, why don't we search Zhuzi's house and find out? Don't you think so?"

Yi Zhonghai said loudly. He could tell from Sha Zhu's expression that it was Sha Zhu who did it, but he had already cleaned up all the mess.

Xu Damao refused to give in.

"Yi Zhonghai, you are biased towards Sha Zhu, right? I wanted to search his house earlier, but you stopped me. Now you say you can search it. So the money shouldn't be here, right?"

Xu Damao is a smart man. He figured out the trick quickly.

"If he doesn't give me the money today, I will never give up."

Xu Damao said viciously.

Sha Zhu also stuck out his neck.

"I didn't take it, so I didn't take it. You can do whatever you want."

The deaf old lady banged her cane hard as she watched the situation grow increasingly chaotic.

"Stop arguing. Xu Damao, calm down first. My eldest grandson said that this matter has nothing to do with him. Think carefully about whether there are other solutions."

Yan Bugui also echoed.

"Yes, Xu Damao, going to the police station will not be good for anyone. Let's discuss it. Shazhu, stop quibbling and take out the money quickly. This matter will be over."

Sha Zhu grinned and said sarcastically.

"Third uncle, I call you Third uncle for our sakes in the past, but you are far worse than First uncle! What kind of person are you? You have no brains, right? Which ear did you hear me taking money? You can't even teach your own son well, and you want to be a teacher! Don't mislead the students!"

"You~you, you are simply unreasonable!"

The third uncle pointed at Shazhu and said tremblingly.

"Boss, calm down, don't get too angry!"

The three aunts were wiping their tears.

Li Wenqiang and his wife sat at the door eating melons and enjoying the show very much.

"Your yard is such a mess!"

Liu Yuhua, who is always gentle and quiet, couldn't help but complain when she saw this scene.

"It's okay, you'll get used to it, that's how it is in our yard! You can deposit the money in the bank later, and just keep some for pocket money, so as not to attract thieves!"

Li Wenqiang said with a smile.

"Well, I'll save all the money tomorrow!"

Liu Yuhua nodded vigorously. This scene of Xu Damao gave her a great shock. It would take so many years to save so much money, and it was gone in an instant. She must be furious.

"What do you mean this yard of my house? It should be our home!"

While the two were chatting, a quarrel broke out on the other side.

"It's just a few hundred dollars! I discussed it with Lao Liu, how about I give you the money as compensation?"

It turned out that Yan Bugui saw that Sha Zhu refused to admit it, so he had no choice but to discuss it with Liu Haizhong and they each paid half of the money and settled the matter.

It was all the fault of those two idiots. They had the guts to steal, but were exposed when they were scared. He was so angry that he wanted to beat them to death. If he had kept silent and refused to admit it, he wouldn't have been in such an awkward and passive situation.

Liu Haizhong glared at Liu Guangtian.

You bastard, hurry up and think of a solution."

Liu Guangtian had a sad face.

"What can I do? I really didn't lie."

Yan Jiecheng also quickly said: "We really only stole a few hundred yuan. The rest of the money was not taken by us."

Everyone discussed it at once, but there was still no good solution.

At this time, Qin Huairu walked up to Sha Zhu and whispered, "Sha Zhu, if you really took the money, return it to Xu Damao. Let's not make a big deal out of it."

Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu, feeling a little shaken, but still said stubbornly: "I didn't take it, why should I give it back to him?"

As time passed, Xu Damao's patience gradually wore out.

"Okay, since you don't admit it, I'll go to the police station to report the case, and we'll see."

Having said that, Xu Damao turned around and was about to leave.

Yi Zhonghai quickly stopped him.

"Xu Damao, wait a minute, let's talk it over. It's just a few hundred dollars! Your uncle and I can compensate you, right? Why do we have to make a scene outside? Don't you think so?"

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly, feeling that he had lost all face.

"Old Yan is right, Damao, just tell me the amount and we'll give you the money right now, how about that?"

Liu Haizhong also said embarrassedly.

"Have you finished talking? If you have, get out of the way! You are really bullshitting me. You stole thousands of dollars from me and now you want to compensate me with hundreds of dollars. I think you two have some serious brain disease. I'll keep that little money for your brain treatment!"

After saying this, Xu Damao pushed Yan Bugui away and ran out. He was already impatient to make these thieves who stole his money pay the price.

"Xu Damao, don't go, stop!"

"Da Mao, wait a minute!"

The second and third aunts were chasing after him, and when they reached the door, Xu Damao had already disappeared without a trace.

"What should we do now?"

The third uncle asked tremblingly. Although he looked like a decent guy in the yard, he was actually just a middle-aged man who liked to brag and care about his reputation. He had no idea what to do when faced with this situation.

"What should I do? Leave it alone! Get here, you little bastard!"

After Liu Haizhong finished speaking, he started beating Liu Guangtian.

"Ah, stop hitting me, I was wrong! I was wrong! We really didn't take that much money!"

Liu Guangtian was beaten and rolled on the ground, wailing non-stop. The screams made Yan Jiecheng close his eyes and regret his actions.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at the few people silently. Today's scene was really eye-opening. First, the sons of the two uncles were thieves, and second, Xu Damao was so rich that he was probably not worse than the uncle!

Qin Huairu looked left and right. Since she was betting on both sides, she would not lose no matter who won.

The police arrived soon, and after checking the crime scene at Xu Damao's house, they asked Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiecheng to identify the crime scene. They also entered Sha Zhu's house to search under everyone's eyes.

But there was nothing except the couple of thousand dollars Shazhu had saved over the years. Shazhu had evidence to prove that the money belonged to him, which made perfect sense, but the clues ended there.

"All of you come with me to the police station!"

The police pointed at Xu Damao, Sha Zhu and the duo who committed the crime and said.

After the people were taken away, everyone immediately started discussing.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui's faces turned pale, as if their mother had died. They felt embarrassed and lost points.

The deaf old lady felt a sense of pleasure of revenge, and was worried about Sha Zhu at first, but when she searched Sha Zhu's house and found nothing, the case was actually already closed.

Because there was no evidence to prove that he took it, but they both admitted to the fact of theft. In the end, in order to gain merit and save trouble, they both took all the charges.

At night, Li Wenqiang left the yard after being intimate with his wife. When he was walking on the steps at the door, he suddenly felt something was wrong. The steps he usually walked on seemed a little loose.

Li Wenqiang took a closer look and suddenly discovered that the stone slab had been moved. Thinking of what happened today, he suddenly tried to lift the stone slab, and suddenly a small package wrapped in oil paper appeared in front of him.

“Haha, is this pie in the sky?”

Li Wenqiang laughed, not even bothering to take a look at it, and threw it into the space.
