Chapter 118 Abandoning Personal Morals and Enjoying a Life of Depravity
This house was converted from the east wing of the large courtyard next door, but it was small yet complete.
It has a kitchen, a toilet, and its own septic tank.
East and west wing rooms!
There's even a well in the small courtyard behind the main house!
I just don't know if this is a sweet water well or a bitter water well!
"This is a sweet water well!"
Wang Chenggong directly explained the situation to Shen Zhishou.
"However, the kitchen here was originally connected to tap water. Once you move in, you can go to the waterworks to have it activated, and then you can use tap water directly. The water from this well is perfect for watering vegetables!"
"Section Chief, this yard is absolutely wonderful!"
Shen Zhishou glanced at Wang Chenggong.
Wang Chenggong rolled his eyes and said, "You don't need to tell me, this house is definitely very nice, it's just that we've been stuck with terrible neighbors. Let me tell you, most people couldn't live here!"
"Even without evidence, I always feel that that bunch of bastards next door are deliberately causing trouble!"
Unfortunately, as I said before, there's no evidence!
Shen Zhishou just smiled and thought to himself, the police need evidence to investigate cases, what evidence does an ordinary citizen like him need?
Besides, he had Zhang Liang's plan, and he himself had his own ways of getting over the wall!
After walking around the courtyard with Wang Chenggong, inside and out, Shen Zhishou really fell in love with it. It was located at the very end of the alley, with only one neighboring family living outside.
I don't know how many people live there, but Wang Chenggong said that the neighbors next door are often noisy, so it's estimated that several generations have lived there, and it's inevitable that there will be some friction.
After wandering around the courtyard, Wang Chenggong left, but Shen Zhishou stayed behind. Since there was nothing to do in the transportation department, Wang Chenggong gave Shen Zhishou half a day off. Since he was going to stay for a few days to experience the place, he should clean the room a bit!
Zhao Meng's bicycle was taken back by Wang Chenggong.
People these days really have some amazing skills.
Wang Chenggong rode his own bicycle with one hand and held Zhao Meng's bicycle with the other, yet it did not affect the bicycles' speed at all.
Cattle!
Shen Zhishou was very convinced.
He felt that he would probably need to practice to achieve this.
After leaving the courtyard, Shen Zhishou strolled back to his own courtyard house.
He found a few rags and went out again.
Coincidentally, as I walked out of the alley of the courtyard house, I ran into Lou Xiao'e, who was returning from outside.
"Sister-in-law Xiao'e, are you busy right now?"
When Shen Zhishou saw Lou Xiao'e, he thought he might as well have a good talk with her.
Lou Xiao'e glanced at Shen Zhishou and said, "It's nothing. Is something wrong?"
"There's something I need to talk about, let's talk as we walk!"
If we're going to talk business, we definitely can't go back to the courtyard house.
Shen Zhishou simply took Lou Xiao'e to the courtyard where he was about to move.
Lou Xiao'e thought about it for a while, and finally followed Shen Zhishou.
She wanted to explain what happened last night to Shen Zhishou. It was a misunderstanding, and they should act as if nothing had happened.
After walking forward for a short while, they turned into an alley and walked all the way to the end of the alley. Shen Zhishou then unlocked the door with his key.
Lou Xiao'e stared blankly at Shen Zhishou's actions, a little uneasy in her heart.
How did Shen Zhishou get the key to this place?
Does he intend to keep a mistress hidden away?
Once inside the courtyard, Shen Zhishou smiled and said, "Because of Yu Li's situation with the Yan family, we felt a bit awkward living there, so we applied to the factory for a room change!"
"This courtyard hasn't been allocated yet because of the eccentric family next door. I'll stay here for a few days to see if I can handle it!"
Shen Zhishou briefly explained the situation to Lou Xiao'e.
After hearing Shen Zhishou's words, Lou Xiao'e's face, which had been flushed with suspicion that Shen Zhishou wanted to keep a mistress, turned cold, and she felt inexplicably angry and agitated.
She didn't think Shen Zhishou changed rooms because of the Yan family, but rather to avoid her.
"Sister Xiao'e, I'm here to talk to you about what happened last night!"
"you say!"
Lou Xiao'e had a cold face.
Shen Zhishou frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled by Lou Xiao'e's emotional change.
But what happened yesterday was indeed a misunderstanding on his part.
"Sister Xiao'e, I know it was my fault yesterday."
"I must have mistaken you for someone else!"
"Mistook me for someone else?"
Lou Xiao'e suddenly looked up at Shen Zhishou, her eyes flashing with a sharp light.
She may seem naive and innocent when it comes to interpersonal relationships, but that doesn't mean she's not smart.
In just a short time, Lou Xiao'e guessed a truth she had never thought of before.
"So, you and Qin Huairu—"
"Well----"
Shen Zhishou really didn't expect that Lou Xiao'e could immediately seize the loophole in his words.
However, now that things have come to this, there's no point in hiding it anymore!
"Sister Xiao'e, it's just what you think!"
Shen Zhishou simply reached out and hugged Lou Xiao'e.
Lou Xiao'e already knows his secret, so the best way to avoid killing her to silence her is to completely turn Lou Xiao'e into one of his own!
"Now that you know my biggest secret, we can only be together forever!"
Lou Xiao'e remained silent for a long time after hearing Shen Zhishou's words.
She's been reliving the feelings from the past few nights all day.
Yesterday, she was half asleep and thought she was dreaming, but the feeling was so real that she had never experienced anything like it before.
Then she woke up.
She also remembered that she wasn't sleeping at home, but with Yu Li.
Realizing what had happened, she chose not to call out, but instead pretended to be asleep.
Lou Xiao'e was thinking about what happened last night when Shen Zhishou saw that she didn't react, so he simply stopped talking and took action.
Shen Zhishou didn't know how to persuade Lou Xiao'e, so he had no choice but to sleep with her!
Lou Xiao'e gave her answer with a bite mark.
Shen Zhishou just chuckled.
Well, he's getting more and more shameless these days!
But how should I put it?
Really fragrant!
No wonder he abandoned his personal integrity and indulged in a life of immorality!
He wasn't actually that bad.
At least, he didn't intentionally harm anyone's interests.
Lou Xiao'e lay in bed, her big eyes fixed on Shen Zhishou, her hands gently touching his body.
Shen Zhishou has a very standard physique, with eight-pack abs and bronze skin, which is very attractive to the opposite sex.
"Sister Xiao'e, you'll be working with me from now on!"
Shen Zhishou held Lou Xiao'e in his arms and spoke as gently as possible.
"Um!"
Lou Xiao'e looked at Shen Zhishou, somewhat mesmerized.
She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she just found Shen Zhishou particularly charming.
Shen Zhishou was secretly delighted.
Great, problem solved!
"Sister Xiao'e, you rest for a while, I'll tidy up the house!"
His space contained a lot of furniture collected from Sun Hu's yard, and now he could take some out and use it.
Even the bedding that was just laid on the kang (a heated brick bed) was something he got from there.
Of course, they were all brand new and unused.
As for the bedding that Sun Hu and his men had used, Shen Zhishou put it away, but he didn't plan to use it. He planned to sell it on the black market when he drove to another city.
While Shen Zhishou was busy tidying up the house, Lou Xiao'e quickly fell asleep.
She hadn't slept much last night and had been overthinking during the day, but now that she had some time to rest and her worries were finally over, she slept very soundly.
Shen Zhishou tidied the room quietly, mainly because he had enough strength.
Then, he heard the melodious singing of opera again.
However, once Shen Zhishou came out of the house, the sound of opera singing could no longer be heard.
But once inside the house, the soft, mournful singing becomes clearer, like weeping and lamenting.
"Trying to pull this on me!"
At this moment, Shen Zhishou was certain that the sound of this scene was indeed deliberately created by the neighbors next door. They must have done something to make the sound exceptionally clear in this room, and it sounded like weeping and lamenting.
Shen Zhishou came out of the house and looked at the architectural structure of the main house.
The west wall of the main house here is the same wall as the one next door, so if the other party wants to tamper with things, they can only do so on the wall.
Shen Zhishou returned to the house, found a small hammer, and began to tap and hammer on the wall, starting from the bottom and slowly moving upwards until he reached the crossbeam.
Then, Shen Zhishou discovered the problem.
There is a small hole where the beam meets the wall, and the sound of opera singing comes from this small hole.
Shen Zhishou took some flour from his spatial storage, added water to make dough, and used it to plug the small hole.
The sound of opera singing has disappeared!
However, what Shen Zhishou didn't understand was when exactly this family started doing this?
Why did they do that?
After all, the people living here have no impact on their family at all.
As the old saying goes, something unusual must be going on.
This family's behavior is completely illogical.
Purely self-destructive and harmful to others?
Are there really such bored people in this world?
The answer is, yes!
However, Shen Zhishou did not think that the family next door were such boring people.
According to Comrade Wang, none of the family members have jobs; they just hang around on the streets, doing odd jobs and living off their savings.
capital?
They even sold off their own east wing; how could they possibly still have any savings?
In theory, they can't possibly still have any savings left!
But that's only in theory!
Shen Zhishou blocked the sound of the opera singing, so if the neighbors wanted to drive them away, they could only argue every day.
Next, we just need to see if they argue every day. If they do, then there must be some secret in this east courtyard, and this secret must be the fundamental reason why they are trying so hard to make this place empty!
Hidden treasure?
It seems like this is the only possibility!
After all, there had been wars before, and those smart families would hide some of their wealth in case they were robbed by soldiers or bandits.
Even if they suffer hardship, they can rely on their hidden wealth to rebuild their lives once peace is restored.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhishou came out of the house again to carefully observe the courtyard.
However, there was nothing unusual about the place.
Despite finding nothing, Shen Zhishou was not discouraged. If someone really had hidden their wealth here, how could it be discovered so easily?
But if there really is treasure hidden here, then as long as he lives here, he will eventually find it.
The initiative is in your own hands!
Back in the house, Shen Zhishou looked at Lou Xiao'e, who was still fast asleep, and at the room that he had tidied up quite a bit, so he stopped working.
Instead, he crawled into bed and slept with Lou Xiao'e in his arms. After about an hour and a half, Shen Zhishou woke up and checked his watch on Lou Xiao'e's wrist.
There wasn't much time left before Yu Li got off work!
Shen Zhishou immediately woke Lou Xiao'e up.
We're going back for seafood tonight!
When Lou Xiao'e woke up, she was met with Shen Zhishou's burning gaze and immediately kicked him out of the house.
After waiting for a while, Lou Xiao'e came out of the house with a rosy complexion and her beautiful eyes looking at Shen Zhishou with tenderness, making Shen Zhishou's heart itch.
He felt like he was becoming more and more lewd!
Damn it, I must have overdoed it with supplements before!
"When people are well-fed and warm, they think about other things." Our ancestors were absolutely right.
The two quickly left the courtyard and locked the gate.
As they passed the grand gate of the front courtyard, Shen Zhishou glanced meaningfully at the imposing gate before leaving with Lou Xiao'e.
After leaving the alley, the two walked around the courtyard house one after the other.
Lou Xiao'e returned to the courtyard house first, while Shen Zhishou went to the public toilet first to relieve himself before returning to the courtyard house, thus keeping their schedules separate.
At the entrance of the courtyard house, Yan Bugui was once again acting as a door god.
Shen Zhishou greeted Yan Bugui and walked into the courtyard. Yan Bugui saw that Shen Zhishou's hands were empty, so he didn't say anything more to him.
Back in the back room, Shen Zhishou took out the seafood from the space.
Scallops and clams can be thrown directly into the pot to cook.
In the other pot were two large steamed yellow croakers!
For the main course, Li will make some hand-pulled noodles when she comes back, and braised scallops with eggs and diced pork. That would be absolutely delicious.
Of course, Shen Zhishou's space has more than just this much seafood, but it's not suitable to eat too much of this stuff in one meal; eating it over several meals is the right thing to do.
When Li and Qin Huairu returned, the aroma of seafood wafted from the back room.
After Yu Li asked Qin Huairu to bring Xiao Dang over, she ran to the backyard to find Lou Xiao'e.
Before long, the back room became lively.
Qin Huairu looked at Shen Zhishou and said softly, "Could you send some to that old lady to try? She's been helping me take care of Xiaodang!"
"no problem!"
Shen Zhishou readily agreed.
They're all my women, so I should still fulfill their little requests.
When Qin Huairu carried a bowl of noodles with scallops and clams to the Central Courtyard, Yan Bugui saw it at his doorstep and sighed repeatedly. If he had gotten along better with Shen Zhishou back then, his family would probably have received a share of this benefit as well!
Then, to Yan Bugui's surprise, Shen Zhishou actually sent a portion to their family.
Not only the Yan family, but also Sha Zhu's family and Liu Haizhong's family in the backyard, Shen Zhishou sent a portion to them all.
He's already preparing to move out, so it's a good way to part ways with these people amicably!
After all, he bought enough, and these things were really worthless at this time!
It costs only a few cents, and it's just something to eat for the novelty!
Of course, these people may not necessarily be used to the food.
Regardless of whether they were used to the food, Shen Zhishou sent some scallops and clams to the families he had frequented.
As for the large yellow croaker, we'll have to keep it for our own family.
Yellow croaker is a real delicacy!
When Shen Zhishou returned with the gifts, Yu Li and Qin Huairu had already prepared the hand-pulled noodles, but hadn't cooked them yet.
Eat seafood first, then eat noodles.
Little Dang is still too young to eat too much, but he can eat more yellow croaker. However, he is small and can't eat much. He gets full quickly and starts playing with his little feet on the side.
During the meal, Shen Zhishou told Yu Li and Qin Zhunru about his plans to move.
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu's expression changed slightly.
Shen Zhishou and Yu Li moved away, so what will she do living alone in this courtyard house?
"Why are you moving?"
'
Yu Li didn't really want to move out; she felt that living here was quite nice.
