Chapter 114 Three Masters Fight for the Inheritance
Chapter 114 Three Masters Fight for the Inheritance
Yi Zhonghai and the aunt walked quickly on the way back to the courtyard, with mixed feelings in their hearts. Looking at the crowd behind them gradually dispersing, Yi Zhonghai suddenly stopped and said to Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui beside him: "The old lady's life was not easy. We have been neighbors. Why don't we go to the old lady's house together later to help her pack up her belongings so that she can rest in peace."
When Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui heard this, their faces suddenly changed.
Waving his hands to refuse, Yan Bugui said in horror: "This... this is not possible, Lao Yi! Now the old lady has been convicted of being an enemy spy. If we go to collect her belongings, we might also be accused of this. Then we will be in trouble. Who can protect us?"
Liu Haizhong also nodded repeatedly in agreement: "That's right, that's right! I think we should stay away from the old lady to avoid getting into trouble and getting ourselves into trouble!"
After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai sneered secretly and thought, what two extremely stupid people!
I just wanted to test them by saying this!
Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai pretended to be sad on the surface, sighed and said: "Well, since both of you don't want to go, then forget it, I will go and pack it myself, which is also a duty as a neighbor."
After saying this, without waiting for Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to respond, he quickly pulled the middle-aged woman away.
Looking at the receding backs of Yi Zhonghai and his wife, Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong looked at each other, with a gleam of doubt in their eyes.
Suddenly, Yan Bugui's eyes lit up.
He curled his lips and whispered to Liu Haizhong: "How could Old Yi be so kind? He avoided the deaf old lady last time. Now he is taking the initiative to help the old lady pack up her belongings. She must have left behind something valuable!"
Liu Haizhong suddenly realized, slapped his thigh and said: "Yes, yes! Think about it carefully, with Old Yi's character, how could he care about the dead? He looks so attentive, most likely he is going for the old lady's inheritance!"
The more they thought about it, the more it made sense to them, so they decided to follow him quietly to see what Yi Zhonghai was up to.
Yan Bugui smiled and said with a wink: "Let's go to the old lady's house and take a look. If there is really something valuable, we can't let Old Yi take it for free!"
Liu Haizhong responded and quickly chased after him.
Little did they know that their every move was seen by Li Yang who was not far away.
Li Yang rode on his bicycle with a playful smile on his face. He had long seen that Yi Zhonghai's attentive face was trying to take advantage of the old lady.
But I didn't expect that Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong, two idiots, actually saw the clues.
Can you guys take that?
Thinking of this, Li Yang snorted, turned the bike around, and rode towards the street office.
……
After returning to the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai and his wife went straight to the deaf old lady's room and began to search everywhere.
They first turned the bed upside down, then opened the cupboards one by one, and even checked every inch of the floor carefully.
Just when the two were about to give up, Yi Zhonghai suddenly caught a glimpse of a piece of bluestone slab at the foot of the bed that seemed a little abrupt.
He quickly leaned over and carefully lifted the stone slab, only to see a vermilion wooden box hidden underneath!
Yi Zhonghai's eyes suddenly glowed green, and he took out the wooden box with trembling hands.
Look at the style of the wooden box. It is very exquisitely made. The red wood carvings and brass corners make it very valuable.
Yi Zhonghai was just about to open the box to find out what was inside when he suddenly heard a loud noise behind him.
He quickly hid the box behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong had barged in!
Yi Zhonghai suppressed his inner panic, put on a smile, and said, "Oh, didn't you two say you couldn't come? Why are you here again now..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yan Bugui.
"Stop pretending, Old Yi! You must have found the old lady's treasure. Take it out and let us share it!" Yan Bugui said with a grin, but his eyes were fixed on the mahogany box behind Yi Zhonghai.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Yi Zhonghai's forehead. He didn't expect that these two guys would follow him here.
You know, he was also planning to conceal the truth and take the old lady's belongings for himself, but he never expected that two Cheng Yaojins would appear halfway!
Yi Zhonghai was so anxious that he scratched his head and his brain raced, trying to find a solution that would satisfy both parties.
"You two are such jokers! What's the point of talking about precious things? I'm just here to help the old lady clean up the mess and fulfill my duty as a neighbor!"
Yi Zhonghai tried to remain calm and hid the wooden box behind him as he spoke.
Liu Haizhong sneered and said bluntly: "Don't try to be so rude! We all live on the same street. Who doesn't know your little tricks? Usually your family takes care of the old lady more. You must know what's going on, but you can't leave us alone, right?"
Yan Bugui also followed suit: "That's right! No matter how precious it is, if there is anything good, take it out and share it with everyone! We are all neighbors, no one should think of monopolizing it!"
Yi Zhonghai's face became more and more ugly, and the anger in his heart almost burst out.
These two bastards usually ignore the deaf old lady, but now they come to ask for a share of the pie?
This is really unreasonable!
"How dare you two say that? When the old lady was alive, we were always the ones to take care of her. Now that she's gone, you're here to divide up her estate! Why? Is it because you're so thick-skinned?"
Yi Zhonghai said with gritted teeth, and started cursing at Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong.
The two men were not to be outdone and kept shouting.
"Stop giving me face, Lao Yi! You usually take care of the old lady more, but we also help her a lot, right? For example, didn't I give her a few eggs once?"
"That's right! In our compound, the old lady lives alone. Who hasn't brought her some food and clothes? Are you the only one who contributed?"
The two of them argued back and forth, determined to get a piece of the pie.
Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he was shaking all over and wanted to rush up and beat up the two men.
But he knew in his heart that he might not be a match for the two of them together. For now, it was better to calm things down and send them away.
Just when Yi Zhonghai was at a loss, Liu Haizhong suddenly sneered, came up to him and said: "Old Yi, if you don't take out the treasure and share it, don't blame us for being rude. When the time comes, we will go to the street office and complain that you kept the deaf old lady's things. How can you deny it?"
Yi Zhonghai was stunned when he heard this, and then he became furious!
This Liu Haizhong is simply a rogue!
Not to mention that he can't be the boss, he is still like this now.
Not only does he want a piece of the pie, he also wants to file a complaint against himself at the street office!
"You...you guys..." Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he was incoherent. He glared at the two bastards in front of him, wishing he could eat them alive.
"Humph, it's not your turn to share my things!"
Yi Zhonghai gnashed his teeth and said, holding the mahogany box behind him in his arms, thinking, if these guys dare to go to the street office to make trouble, I will take the things in the box for myself even if I risk my life!
When Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui saw this, a smug look flashed in their eyes.
They knew that Yi Zhonghai had been hooked, and with the mahogany box incident, he couldn't deny it anyway.
As long as we file a complaint with the street office, even if this old man makes a scene, he will still be confiscated!
Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui looked at each other and couldn't help but smile triumphantly.
The two men decided to report Yi Zhonghai and wait for the old man to get into trouble, then they would divide up his "spoils"
Just as the three were on the verge of a fight, there was a sudden noise in the yard.
"Look, look, the people from the Street Office are here!" Someone outside was shouting, "And the Public Security Bureau, they seem to be here to search or something!"
