Chapter 212 White-Eyed Wolf
"enough!"
A majestic voice interrupted Jia Zhang's words. Everyone turned around and saw an old lady standing behind the crowd with a sullen face.
When Jia Zhang saw the first lady, she felt as if her neck was strangled, and her voice suddenly stopped. She knew in her heart that although Yi Zhonghai was dead, the first lady was still alive, and her words still had a certain weight in the courtyard.
The first lady glanced coldly at Jia Zhang, then looked at Sha Zhu and said in a deep voice: "Sha Zhu, come in with me, I have something to tell you."
Sha Zhu was stunned for a moment, looked at Jia Zhang, then looked at the aunt, and finally nodded and followed the aunt into the house.
Jia Zhang looked at the two men's backs, with a gleam of resentment in her eyes. She knew that once Yi Zhonghai died, her position in the courtyard would probably plummet. And all this was caused by Sha Zhu!
She gritted her teeth secretly, thinking in her mind that she must find a way to get the money from Sha Zhu and not let this ungrateful bastard get it!
Inside the house, Sha Zhu stood uneasily in front of the aunt. He didn't know what the aunt wanted to say to him, and he didn't know what would be waiting for him.
A lady sat on a chair, looking at him solemnly. After a long while, she slowly spoke: "Shazhu, tell me honestly, how much do you know about Yi Zhonghai's death?"
Sha Zhu was shocked, raised his head in disbelief, and looked into the eyes of the aunt, as if he saw something he had never seen before...
Sha Zhu was stunned by the sudden question from Auntie. He opened his mouth and took a long time to find his voice: "Auntie, what are you talking about? Uncle passed away, and I feel sadder than anyone else. How could I..."
"Silly Zhu, stop pretending!" The old lady slammed the table and shouted, "Let me ask you, where did you go last night?"
Sha Zhu was startled and stammered, "I, I last night..."
"Did you go to Yi Zhonghai's house last night?" The aunt pressed on, her sharp eyes seeming to be able to see through Sha Zhu's heart.
Sha Zhu's heart sank suddenly. He pretended to be calm and said, "No, no, I was sleeping at home last night. If you don't believe me, ask other people in the courtyard."
"Do you think I will believe your lies?" The aunt sneered, "I have long seen that you have ill intentions towards Yi Zhonghai. You have been courting him all these years just for his little fortune, right? Now that he is dead, you can't wait to take it all for yourself, right?"
Sha Zhu was so wronged that his face turned red. He stiffened his neck and said in defense: "Auntie, how can you say that to me? You know best how I treated Uncle. How could I..."
"How dare you quibble!" The aunt was furious. "Do you think I don't know who you are? You are just a lazy scoundrel who only knows how to take advantage of others all day long! Yi Zhonghai must be blind to be deceived by someone like you!"
"That's enough!" Sha Zhu finally couldn't stand it anymore. He stood up suddenly, pointed at the aunt's nose and cursed, "You old hag, don't think that just because you are an aunt in the courtyard, you can slander people at will! I tell you, I am sincere to the uncle. I don't want his property, let alone harm him!"
The aunt was frightened by Sha Zhu's momentum. She was stunned for a moment before she reacted. She pointed at the door and yelled, "You, get out! I don't want to see you again!"
Sha Zhu turned around angrily and walked away. When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around, looked at the aunt, and said word by word: "Auntie, I tell you, one day, you will regret what you said!"
After saying that, Shazhu left without looking back.
The old lady looked at Sha Zhu's back and was shaking with anger. She never thought that Sha Zhu, who was always timid in front of her, would dare to talk to her like this.
"It's a rebellion, a rebellion! It's really outrageous!" An old lady was so angry that she sat down on a chair, her chest heaving violently.
At the same time, Jia Zhang hid outside the door and heard everything that happened in the house clearly. She showed a sinister smile on her face, and was secretly proud of herself: Silly Zhu, you have come to this day! Once Yi Zhonghai dies, I wonder what you can rely on!
Jia Zhang knew that Sha Zhu and the aunt had completely broken up, which was definitely great news for her. Without the protection of Yi Zhonghai and the aunt, she could deal with Sha Zhu without restraint!
"Silly Zhu, ah, Silly Zhu, just wait, I will make you pay the price!" Jia Zhang thought with gritted teeth.
The next morning, when Sha Zhu got up, he found that the people in the yard were looking at him strangely, and some people were even pointing at him and whispering.
"Hey, look, isn't that Shazhu? I heard that he had an argument with an auntie yesterday and was kicked out by her."
"Is this true? How dare Shazhu mess with an old lady?"
"Who said it wasn't true? But I heard that the reason why Sha Zhu quarreled with the aunt was because of Yi Zhonghai's inheritance..."
Listening to the discussions of people around him, Sha Zhu felt furious. He didn't know who was spreading rumors behind his back, but he knew that someone must have deliberately wanted to ruin his reputation!
Sha Zhu angrily walked to the door of Jia Zhang's house, kicked it open, and yelled, "Jia Zhang, get out of here!"
Jia Zhang was sitting at the table eating breakfast when she saw Sha Zhu rushing in aggressively. She was so scared that she dropped the steamed bread in her hand. She raised her head and asked innocently, "Sha Zhu, what are you doing? Why are you so crazy so early in the morning?"
"Are you still playing dumb with me?" Sha Zhu pointed at Jia Zhang's nose and cursed, "Are you the one spreading rumors everywhere, saying that I want to take all the inheritance from my uncle?"
"You, what are you talking about?" Jia Zhang avoided Sha Zhu's gaze guiltily, "When did I spread rumors? Don't slander me!"
"You still dare to quibble!" Sha Zhu grabbed Jia Zhang's collar and lifted her up from the chair. "I warn you, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart!"
"Help! Someone is killing me!" Jia Zhang screamed in fear.
When the people in the yard heard Jia Zhang's cry for help, they all ran over to watch what was happening.
"What's going on? Why are you making so much noise so early in the morning?" The third uncle Yan Bugui came over with his coat draped over his face, looking impatient.
"Old Yan, you came just in time!" When Jia Zhang saw Yan Bugui, she felt like she had grabbed a life-saving straw and immediately started crying, "Shazhu is crazy. He came to my house early in the morning to beat me and even tore my mouth. Tell me, is there still any law?"
Before Yan Bugui could speak, Sha Zhu couldn't help but say, "Jia Zhang, can you please have some shame? When did I hit you? I just..."
"You still dare to quibble!" Jia Zhang screamed, "You just clearly..."
"enough!"
A majestic voice interrupted Jia Zhang's words. Everyone turned around and saw an old lady standing behind the crowd with a sullen face...
