Chapter 69 When the city gate catches fire, the innocent bystanders suffer.
Rest day.
Shen Zhishou and Yu Li brought gifts and went to the Yu family early in the morning.
When Yu's parents saw that their son-in-law had been replaced, it took them a long time to come to their senses.
"Mom and Dad, the Yan family tricked me into this marriage!"
"The wedding house they prepared didn't belong to the Yan family at all. They didn't even bother to get a rental contract from the neighborhood committee; they just forcibly occupied the neighborhood committee's property!"
Yu Li was still very angry when she talked about this.
The parents never expected things to turn out this way; they were both angry and relieved.
If Shen Zhishou hadn't appeared just in time, my daughter would have really fallen into a fire pit.
Therefore, the two were naturally quite satisfied with Shen Zhishou, their new son-in-law.
We had lunch at home.
Father Yu even called all his brothers from the same clan over, since the new son-in-law had come to visit, they had to meet him.
As a guest of the Yu family, Shen Zhishou naturally received special attention. He was offered drinks and greetings by everyone, and he accepted them all.
He single-handedly took down all the men of the Yu family, young and old, leaving Yu Li completely dumbfounded.
Overall, this trip back to Yu Li's parents' home was very harmonious between the father-in-law and son-in-law, which was great!
After the meal, Yu Li and Shen Zhishou did not stay long and hurriedly returned to the courtyard house.
After sending Yu Li back to the courtyard house, Shen Zhishou rushed to the train station.
Because Shen Zhishou dealt with Sun Hu and his gang, there were far fewer pickpockets at the train station. However, Shen Zhishou felt that after some time, the number of pickpockets would increase again.
As for why?
With Sun Hu gone, no one is poaching from his territory in the short term, simply because everyone is watching to see if the people behind Sun Hu will support someone else to take over.
If nothing happens, then the others will simply take action and divide up Sun Hu's territory.
However, none of this has anything to do with Shen Zhishou.
He's full now.
Upon entering the freight depot, Shen Zhishou first found Wang Weigong, chatted with him for a while, left two bottles of good wine, and then slipped away.
Shen Zhishou is not short of a few coins these days.
But if he has the time and energy, Shen Zhishou will still come over to earn some money.
His money must have a source.
Otherwise, something bad will happen sooner or later.
After leaving Wang Weigong's side, Shen Zhishou went to the stationmaster's office and chatted with Yang Zhenhua about the steel rolling mill, especially about Jia Dongxu.
"Xiao Shen, are you saying that your factory director, Yang, made the decision back then?"
"Yes, the man was taken back for questioning by the security department, but he was released that same evening. It was Jia Dongxu's mentor who went to see Director Yang!"
Upon hearing Shen Zhishou's words, Yang Zhenhua slammed his fist on the table in anger, exclaiming, "I knew it! This idiot can't do anything smart!"
"Station Chief Yang, you can't really blame yourself for this. Jia Dongxu's mentor is an eighth-grade fitter at the steel rolling mill, a pillar of the company!"
China has always been a country that values human relationships.
With a skilled fitter like Yi Zhonghai intervening on behalf of the factory, how could Director Yang not respond?
Unfortunately, Yi Zhonghai thought too highly of Jia Dongxu and never dreamed that Jia Dongxu would betray him.
"Xiao Shen, I owe you a favor for this!"
Yang Zhenhua looked bitter and waved his hand, "I have things to do today, so I won't keep you any longer. Let's have a good drink together later!"
"Okay, you're busy!"
The reason Shen Zhishou went to the train station in the middle of the afternoon was to talk to Yang Zhenhua about the steel rolling mill.
This matter concerning Jia Dongxu is very unfavorable to Director Yang.
Factory Director Yang and Station Chief Yang are related.
As the saying goes, when the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer. If Director Yang gets into trouble, Shen Zhishou, like a fish in the moat, might very well be affected as well.
Now that Yang Zhenhua knows about this, Shen Zhishou only needs to watch the show from the sidelines as things unfold!
We returned to the courtyard house once again.
Shen Zhishou, carrying the two grass carp he had just managed to buy, happily entered the courtyard.
As a result, as soon as I entered the house, I saw my sister-in-law, Yu Haitang, again.
"Brother-in-law!"
Yu Haitang greeted Shen Zhishou with a smile when she saw him return.
Shen Zhishou blinked and said, "Huh? Why didn't you go home?"
Why did Yu Haitang come to my house instead of going home on her day off?
When he was at home before, Shen Zhishou was wondering why his sister-in-law wasn't home.
"Brother-in-law, are you not welcoming me?"
Yu Haitang instantly put on a wronged expression.
Shen Zhishou rolled his eyes speechlessly. This sister-in-law is such a drama queen!
"How could I dare?"
"By the way, where's your sister?"
Shen Zhishou spoke with Yu Li for a while, but Yu Li did not appear, which can only mean one thing: Yu Li is not in the house.
"My sister went to the supply and marketing cooperative and left me to look after the house!"
"Alright, you stay home and watch the house. I'll go to the Intermediate People's Court to deal with these two fish!"
"We're having fish for dinner tonight!"
The two large grass carp weighed about six or seven pounds together.
After three years of famine, it's incredible that someone could catch such a big grass carp. Shen Zhishou could only say that this person's luck was truly outrageous.
"Okay, I promise I'll keep a close eye on the house!"
Yu Haitang hurriedly made her promise.
Shen Zhishou ignored her and found a basin, took some scissors, and two fish, heading straight for the water tap in the middle courtyard.
When Shen Zhishou arrived at the Intermediate People's Court, he saw Sha Zhu busy at the water tap, with He Yushui standing next to him.
"Master He, Miss Yushui, what are you busy with?"
Shen Zhishou greeted him with a smile.
Sha Zhu grinned and said, "I bought a chicken to help Yu Shui recover!"
"good!"
Shen Zhishou gave a thumbs up.
Although Sha Zhu has a lot of flaws, he's still quite good to his younger sister, He Yushui.
Of course, as a grown man, he wasn't very meticulous, and since no one had taught him many things, he took care of He Yushui rather carelessly.
But it cannot be denied that Sha Zhu still has the demeanor of an older brother.
Many people say that Sha Zhu treated He Yushui badly, but that's a bit far-fetched.
He Yushui's thinness is not necessarily due to poor diet; some people are naturally thin.
If Sha Zhu really treated He Yushui badly, then what about He Yushui's reaction when Sha Zhu was wrongly accused of stealing chickens?
The brother and sister seem to have a good relationship.
As for why He Yushui rarely returns to the courtyard house after getting married?
With parents gone, how often do married daughters visit their parents' home?
"Wow, you're in luck! Two such big fish, did you catch them yourself?"
After Sha Zhu finished answering Shen Zhishou, he also saw the two grass carp in Shen Zhishou's basin and gave him a thumbs up as well.
Shen Zhishou smiled and said, "I saw someone selling them on the road, so I bought some!"
"I went to my father-in-law's house this morning, how could I have time to go fishing!"
"How was it? Your father-in-law didn't give you any trouble, did he?"
Upon hearing that Shen Zhishou had gone to Yu Li's mother's house, Sha Zhu's gossipy nature was immediately piqued, and his gossipy spirit burned brightly.
Why are you making things difficult for me?
"I've been so good to Li, how could my father-in-law possibly make things difficult for me?"
Shen Zhishou rolled his eyes at Sha Zhu.
Sha Zhu was instantly dumbfounded.
Yu Li married Shen Zhishou so quickly that she didn't even visit her future father-in-law's house. This was a case of acting first and informing later. Why wasn't she made things difficult for him?
