The night swallowed up the last ray of the setting sun.
The night is like a velvet blanket in a theater, wrapping the courtyard tightly.
The ground has been scorching all day, and the heat is evaporating, making people feel upset and angry.
Considering that a meeting will be held in the courtyard in the evening to discuss He Yuyu's severing of relations with Shazhu.
Plus, the weather is hot, and I’m not in the mood to cook delicious food.
Li Aiguo simply makes a bowl of egg noodles.
Pull open the coal stove stopper.
A jet-black stainless steel pot sat on the coal stove.
Boil a pot of water.
Stir in seven or eight eggs.
Add wet noodles.
Add bok choy.
A humble bowl of egg noodles is ready.
After the meal, the dishes and chopsticks were washed.
Li Aiguo picked up a copy of "How Steel Was Tempered" and read it.
This book is in vertical traditional Chinese characters.
There are also illustrations in the middle, with more than 600 pages, and it feels like a brick in your hand.
"Steel is made by burning in fire and being highly cooled, so it is very strong. Our generation has also been tempered through struggle and hard tests..."
Just as I was seeing the wonderful place, there was a sudden noise outside.
"Something happened! It's not good! Someone come quickly!"
problem occurs?
Li Aiguo stood up, opened the door, and saw several neighbors standing at the door, all looking in the direction of Crescent Gate with doubts on their faces.
Zhang Gangzhu hurried in from outside carrying a hanging pig intestine.
While running, he shouted: "It's not good, He Yuyu hanged himself."
boom!
The thick voice sounded like muffled thunder in everyone's ears.
Heavy footsteps stepped on the heart, and the faces of the residents all showed a bit of surprise.
"What are you doing here, hurry up and save people."
Li Aiguo roared and ran towards Shazhu's house in the middle courtyard.
The door of Shazhu's house was closed, and He Yuyu's classmate Wang Ruxin stood at the door, standing on tiptoes and looking over.
See Li Aiguo.
Wang Ruxin's eyes flashed with joy. He pretended to be panicked and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Brother Patriot, it's not good. He Yuyu hanged himself. The door is stuck inside and I can't open it. Please help her."
Li Aiguo: "......"
Fake, it’s so fake.
With your acting skills, even if you were placed in the Yuhong class, the teacher wouldn't be able to select you.
I could only sit on the small bench and look at the other children eagerly, holding red tassel guns and looking majestic on the stage.
Wang Ruxin also felt that his acting skills were outstanding, so he wanted to pull Li Aiguo's arm: "Quickly, help me..."
"cry!"
"Ah?" Wang Ruxin looked confused.
"Don't you kid cry?"
Li Aiguo could see it now.
What He Yuyu hangs himself is actually a play performed by He Yuyu.
Starring He Yuyu, supporting roles Wang Ruxin and Wang Gangzhu.
The purpose is to gain the initiative in the battle when facing the attack of the deaf old lady Yi Zhonghai at the 'Convention to Sever Ties'.
Li Aiguo had already figured it out when he ran out of the Crescent Gate.
If He Yuyu really hanged himself, would Wang Gangzhu not hurry to save the person, but instead think about taking the pig intestines home?
"Yes, I will cry..."
Wang Ruxin received the advice, nodded, and made an aggrieved expression, but his face turned red and he did not squeeze out a single tear.
He raised his head and said pitifully: "Brother Patriot, I can't cry..."
"Think about it, the night after your father found out that you and He Yuyu were skipping school and going to the park... what did he use to teach you a lesson, a brass buckle belt or a leather whip and handcuffs?"
"The copper buckle belt...hangs from the beam..."
A flash of fear flashed across Wang Ruxin's eyes, panic appeared on his face, his nose twitched twice, and snot bubbles bulged underneath. After the emotions were brewing, I cried with a cry of "ah".
"It's not good, He Yuyu hanged himself, wuwuwu, hurry up and save someone!"
Wang Ruxin burst into tears, as if she was greatly frightened.
The cry was not loud, but it was very penetrating and made people's hearts tremble.
"Good boy, he's quite decent." Li Aiguo gave a thumbs up.
"Speak louder, they're coming."
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and several other residents rushing towards him from behind.
Li Aiguo pretended to be anxious and knocked open the door of Shazhu's house.
Entering the house, there was a thick hemp rope hanging from the beam.
He Yuyu squatted on the Eight Immortals table, swinging his feet back and forth, munching the cake leisurely.
He Yuyu looked at the cake, then at Li Aiguo, and said aggrievedly: "Brother Aiguo, I've been waiting for a long time, but you didn't come. The cake Wang Ruxin brought was so delicious that I couldn't hold it back."
"I didn't think you were hungry because you didn't eat at noon." Wang Ruxin explained while crying: "I secretly brought this piece of cake from home."
He Yuyu nodded: "This is red date flavored. What I like to eat is osmanthus flavored."
Wang Ruxin: "Don't worry, there's still a big box at home. I'll go back and bring you some sweet-scented osmanthus flavor later."
...
Li Aiguo:......
Is it acting or just playing house?
The two of them really don't live in the same family.
The idea he came up with was good, but when he got it done, it was out of tune.
"Quick, Yi Zhonghai is here!"
"Ah...I'm not ready yet!"
He Yuyu was in a hurry, threw away the cake, stood on the chair, and wanted to pull the thick hemp rope, but found that he was short and the rope was too high to reach.
She looked at Li Aiguo pitifully: "Brother Aiguo, can you help me move a stool?"
Li Aiguo called him a good guy in his heart. He even omitted the steps of practice before performing.
Do you still expect to get applause from the audience?
Li Aiguo rushed over quickly, put the stool on the table, and helped He Yuyu stand up.
"You are clumsy in doing things, so there is no need to put a collar on your neck. When Yi Zhonghai and the others rush in, we will pretend that we have just rescued you."
Li Aiguo saw that He Yuyu was so out of tune.
I'm a little afraid that this girl will accidentally act really fake.
Then you will be blinded.
Seeing Wang Ruxin still standing there, he quickly urged: "Come here too and start crying loudly."
"Okay, I'm so good at crying now..." Wang Ruxin raised her little face and nodded vigorously.
Li Aiguo frowned when he saw He Yuyu's neck was smooth and white: "There is no trace at all, how can this be done?"
"Rainwater, do you have red ink?"
"Yes, yes, I am the study committee member of the class, responsible for helping the teacher correct homework."
He Yuyu brought the red ink bottle.
Li Aiguo dipped a thin rope in it. The rope was wrapped around He Yuyu's neck. He tightened the rope and gently loosened it with his fingers.
Snapped.
A red mark appeared on He Yuyu's neck.
Then I wiped it evenly with my fingers. There was a red mark on the inside and a blush on the outside. It looked exactly like being strangled by a rope.
Wang Ruxin applauded: "It's so similar. Brother Patriot, you are so awesome."
"Keep crying!"
"Ah...wuwuwu..."
Li Aiguo looked at He Yuyu, who was holding the rope with both hands, and Wang Ruxin, who was hugging He Yuyu's legs and crying bitterly.
Oh, it feels like playing games with children.
....
"Lao Yi, are we pushing too hard?"
"This girl He Yuyu actually hanged herself."
"Hey, Lao Yi, please slow down, I can't keep up."
It was a hot summer day, and after running a few steps, I felt out of breath.
"Slower?"
Yi Zhonghai lowered his voice and said angrily: "Everyone in the courtyard is watching now. If we wait too long, something will happen to He Yuyu, and neither of us will be able to escape our involvement."
He secretly cursed Liu Haizhong.
If you hadn't insisted on accepting He Yueyue as your goddaughter in order to prevent He Yueyue from breaking off the relationship with Silly Zhu, how could that girl be so scared?
Liu Haizhong saw the residents running towards He's house, and realized the seriousness of the problem, so he stepped a little faster.
