Chapter 1108 Make it up to you
"Erdong, I know you're still mad at me, but..."
"What do you want to say?" He Yudong interrupted her impatiently.
Qin Huairu bit her lip and said, "Erdong, I know I did a lot of things to let you down in the past, but now I really know I was wrong. I beg you to give me another chance and let me make it up to you..."
As she spoke, Qin Huairu began to cry.
She walked up to He Yudong and reached out to grab his hand.
He Yudong took a step back suddenly and avoided her hand.
"Qin Huairu, stop acting!" He Yudong said coldly, "Do you think I will still believe you?"
Qin Huairu was stunned. She didn't expect He Yudong to say that.
"Erdong, you..."
"Go away, I don't want to see you again." He Yudong said mercilessly.
Qin Huairu's face turned ugly.
She didn't expect He Yudong to be so heartless.
"He Yudong, are you really going to do this to me?" Qin Huairu's voice trembled.
"You know how I treat you." He Yudong said coldly, "Go away and don't come to me again."
Qin Huairu's tears fell like pearls from a broken string.
She stood there, motionless.
He Yudong looked at her without a trace of pity in his heart.
This woman doesn't deserve his sympathy at all.
"Why aren't you leaving?" He Yudong's tone became even colder.
Qin Huairu took a deep breath, then turned and left.
Looking at Qin Huairu's departing back, He Yudong showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
This woman finally left.
He can finally have some peace and quiet.
However, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
This feeling is very complicated.
He didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong.
Just then, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the door.
He walked to the door, opened it and saw a large group of people gathered in the yard. It seemed that something had happened.
He walked out curiously to see what was going on.
Standing in the middle of the crowd were Sha Zhu and Xu Damao.
There were bruises all over Sha Zhu's face, obviously he had been beaten.
Xu Damao stood aside, looking at Sha Zhu smugly.
"What's going on?" He Yudong asked.
"He Yudong, you're just in time!" Xu Damao said immediately when he saw He Yudong, "Look, that bastard Sha Zhu actually dared to hit me!"
He Yudong looked at Sha Zhu and asked, "Sha Zhu, why did you hit him?"
Sha Zhu covered his face and said, "He deserves to be beaten!"
"Should he be beaten? What did he do?" He Yudong asked puzzledly.
Sha Zhu glanced at Xu Damao and said, "He...he..."
Sha Zhu stammered and couldn't speak.
"He said I stole his chickens!" Xu Damao said, "He Yudong, do you think I look like someone who would steal chickens?"
He Yudong looked at Xu Damao, then at Sha Zhu, and for a moment he didn't know who to believe.
Just then, a voice came from the crowd.
"I know what's going on!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a short man walking out from the crowd.
This man was none other than the third uncle Yan Bugui.
"Uncle, do you know what's going on?" He Yudong asked.
Yan Bugui nodded and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. It was Sha Zhu who stole the chicken from Xu Damao's house!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
"Shazhu, do you have anything else to say?" He Yudong looked at Shazhu and asked coldly.
Sha Zhu's face turned ugly.
He didn't expect that Yan Bugui would actually stand up and testify against him.
"I..." Sha Zhu opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
He felt like he had fallen into a trap and couldn't climb out.
And all of this was designed by Xu Damao!
"Comrade police, I have evidence!" A shrill voice came from the crowd.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a thin man squeezing in with a wallet in his hand. It was He Yudong's.
"This is what I just picked up. It should be this comrade's wallet." said the thin man, handing the wallet to the police.
The police took the wallet, opened it, and sure enough, found He Yudong’s ID card and some money inside.
"Your name is He Yudong?" the police asked.
"Yes." He Yudong nodded.
The policeman looked at the shadow on the ground again, "Do you have anything else to say?"
The black shadow's face turned pale, knowing that he was in trouble this time.
"Comrade police, I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again next time." The black shadow said with a sad face.
"Next time? Do you think there will be a next time?" The policeman snorted coldly, "Come back to the station with me!"
After saying that, the police took the black figure away.
He Yudong took the wallet from the policeman and said to the thin man gratefully: "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I would never have found my wallet."
"You're welcome. It's just a small favor." The thin man smiled and said, "My name is Yan Bugui, and I'm the third uncle in this courtyard."
"Third uncle?" He Yudong was stunned, then he remembered, wasn't Yan Bugui the calculating cunning man in Love in Courtyard?
I didn't expect that he would help me.
"Uncle, thank you so much today." He Yudong thanked him again.
"It's okay, it's okay. We're all neighbors, it's only natural." Yan Bugui waved his hand. "By the way, I see you don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm fine. I just got robbed and I'm a little angry," said He Yudong.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Yan Bugui nodded, "Then you should go back and have a rest."
"Okay, Third Uncle, I'll leave first." He Yudong said, turned around and left.
Yan Bugui looked at He Yudong's back, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
He Yudong returned to the courtyard, still thinking about what had just happened.
He didn't expect that he would be robbed on the first day he came here.
It seems that public security in this era is indeed not very good.
However, he was also glad that he met Yan Bugui, otherwise, he would never have been able to find his wallet again.
After returning home, He Yudong lay on the bed, thinking about what to do in the future.
His top priority now is to make money.
Without money, you can't get anywhere in this era.
He remembered that antique calligraphy and paintings of that era were very cheap.
And he happened to be quite knowledgeable about antique calligraphy and paintings.
In his previous life, he studied with an old expert for several years and was considered half an expert.
He decided to go to Panjiayuan tomorrow to see if he could find some treasures.
The next morning, He Yudong got up early.
He simply washed up and went out.
He first went to a breakfast stall, bought two, and ate while walking.
When he reached the entrance of the alley, he saw Yan Bugui again.
Yan Bugui was squatting on the ground, not knowing what he was doing.
"Uncle, what are you doing?" He Yudong asked curiously.
Yan Bugui raised his head and saw that it was He Yudong, and quickly stood up.
"Erdong, I'm just about to pick up some waste." Yan Bugui said.
"Picking up waste?" He Yudong was stunned. "Uncle, you are a cadre, why are you picking up waste?"
"Alas, there is nothing I can do. My family is poor." Yan Bugui sighed, "My salary is not enough to support my family."
He Yudong then remembered that Yan Bugui's family conditions were indeed not very good.
His wife is a housewife and does not have a job. His three sons are all in school. The family's income depends on Yan Bugui's salary alone.
"Uncle, if you are short of money, you can tell me." He Yudong said, "Although I don't have much money, I can still help you a little."
"How can this be so embarrassing?" Yan Bugui said quickly.
"It's okay, we are all neighbors, and we should help each other," said He Yudong.
"Well...thank you, Erdong." Yan Bugui said gratefully.
"You're welcome, Third Uncle." He Yudong smiled, "By the way, Third Uncle, do you know how to get to Panjiayuan?"
"Panjiayuan?" Yan Bugui was stunned. "What are you going to do in Panjiayuan?"
"I want to see if there is anything good." He Yudong said.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Yan Bugui nodded, "I know how to get to Panjiayuan. I'll take you there."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle Three." He Yudong said.
"No trouble, no trouble." Yan Bugui waved his hand, "Let's go."
After saying that, Yan Bugui took He Yudong and walked towards Panjiayuan.
Along the way, Yan Bugui kept talking to He Yudong about the situation in Panjiayuan.
"Erdong, let me tell you, Panjiayuan is a place where all kinds of people mix together." Yan Bugui said, "You must be careful when you go there, don't get cheated."
"I know, Third Uncle." He Yudong nodded.
"Also, if you see anything good, be sure to ask me first." Yan Bugui said, "Although I don't understand antiques, calligraphy and paintings, I know a few friends in this field who can help you identify them."
"Okay, I understand, Third Uncle." He Yudong said.
When they reached the entrance of a secluded alley, Yan Bugui suddenly stopped and a strange smile appeared on his face.
He took out a dagger from his arms and put it against He Yudong's waist.
"Erdong, do you know why I brought you here?" Yan Bugui said sinisterly.
"Erdong, do you know why I brought you here?" Yan Bugui smiled sinisterly, and that smile was particularly creepy in the dim light of the early morning, like a poisonous snake crawling out of the crack in the ground, spitting out its tongue and staring at its prey greedily.
He Yudong's heart skipped a beat, and a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He pretended to be calm and said with a casual smile: "Uncle, what are you talking about? I'm timid, please don't scare me."
"To scare you?" Yan Bugui sneered, "Don't play dumb with me, kid! Do you really think I don't know your little tricks? You've made a fortune recently, eating and drinking delicious food every day, do you think I can't see it with my dim eyes?"
He Yudong cursed in his heart, this old man, his nose is really sharp! But he remained calm on the surface and continued to play dumb: "Uncle, what are you talking about? How can I be rich? I am just an ordinary worker, with such a small salary every month, barely making ends meet."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Yan Bugui emphasized his tone and pushed the dagger towards He Yudong's waist again, "Have you been to Panjiayuan to buy antiques recently? I heard that you are lucky and found a lot of good things!"
He Yudong understood now that this old man had set his sights on his treasure. He sneered in his heart, thinking that Yan Bugui was really an old fox, and he even knew about his trip to Panjiayuan.
"Uncle, you misunderstood. I just went to Panjiayuan to stroll around and didn't find anything." He Yudong continued to play dumb.
