Chapter 415: He Yushui Changes Her Age
Upon seeing Zhang Lei, the police officer immediately reprimanded him, "Comrade, no matter what I say, you shouldn't have laid a hand on him. Be careful next time."
In fact, the police were also very disgusted by Jia Zhangshi's cursing behavior, but as a police officer, he could not openly favor Zhang Lei, so he could only say something to Zhang Lei.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lei quickly apologized, saying, "Yes, yes, it's my fault. I shouldn't have gotten angry and hit you."
As he spoke, he smiled at Madam Jia and said, "Madam Jia, I'm sorry."
Seeing Zhang Lei's lack of sincerity, Jia Zhangshi was furious and was about to fight him when the police stopped her, saying, "Alright, we understand the situation here, but the property certificate has already been issued. If you have any questions, you can go to the housing management bureau to inquire. This matter is already very clear."
As he spoke, the police officer was about to leave.
Madam Jia Zhang looked at He Yushui in exasperation and said, "You brat! Fine, you're really something."
Then she looked at Zhang Lei and said, "You two adulterers, neither of you is any good."
Seeing Jia Zhangshi, Zhang Lei immediately swung his fist at her, scaring her into hiding. He said, "Jia Zhangshi, if you keep talking so foully, I'll teach you a lesson for your foul mouth, won't I? I haven't laid a hand on you in a long time. Do you think I'm a pushover?"
Xu Damao suddenly stepped forward, looked at Zhang Lei, and said with a smile, "Zhang Lei, don't be anxious. No matter what, Jia Zhangshi is angry because of the house, which is understandable. Besides, what you did was a bit excessive. Bang Geng is Qin Huairu's son, and he definitely has the right to inherit Qin Huairu's house."
Looking at Xu Damao's treacherous smile, Zhang Lei said, "Xu Damao, I wonder if you're feeling better down there? Do you intend to adopt Bang Geng as your son?"
Hearing Zhang Lei's pointed remark, Xu Damao retorted angrily, "Zhang Lei, what the hell are you saying? What I do has nothing to do with you!"
Zhang Lei laughed and said, "Yeah, what does it have to do with me? But what does our business have to do with you? Why are you meddling in my affairs?"
Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, Xu Damao immediately retorted, "I just couldn't stand by and watch. Besides, what does He Yushui's matter have to do with you?"
At this moment, Zhang Lei looked at He Yushui, grabbed her, and hugged her, saying, "He Yushui is my woman, so what do you think our relationship is?"
Hearing Zhang Lei say this, the people around him were stunned.
He Yushui stood up frankly and said, "From now on, Brother Zhang Lei is my only family and lover, so my affairs are Brother Zhang Lei's affairs, and he has the right to make decisions for me on any matter."
Zhang Lei looked at Xu Damao and said with a smile, "See? Xu Damao, I hope you stop meddling in other people's business and mind your own business. Don't give advice on other people's affairs."
When Zhang Lei said this, Xu Damao was startled, thinking to himself: How did Zhang Lei know that he was up to something behind the scenes?
Zhang Lei looked at Xu Damao, then took He Yushui's hand and walked into the house.
The crowd looked at Xu Damao and Jia Zhangshi, who were standing to the side, and slowly left.
Zhang Lei put his arm around He Yushui and said, "Yushui, this No. 95 courtyard is too awful. Why don't you come and live in No. 90 courtyard?"
He Yushui nodded and said, "I understand, sir."
Upon hearing He Yushui's address, Zhang Lei was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, okay, okay."
At this moment, Zhang Lei looked at He Yushui and said with a smile, "Yushui, what are you planning to do with this house?"
He Yushui thought for a moment and said, "Let's rent it out. Since we're not living there anymore, it's just sitting there empty anyway."
Zhang Lei thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it for you."
At a rent of two yuan per room, these six rooms would cost 12 yuan per month. 12 yuan may seem like a small amount, but some adults don't even earn that much in a month doing odd jobs.
He Yushui, lying in Zhang Lei's arms, said, "Brother Zhang Lei, I want you to do something for me."
Zhang Lei put his arm around her and said with a smile, "What is it?"
He Yushui said, "I want to change my age."
Upon hearing about changing his age, Zhang Lei paused, then asked, "Why do you want to change your age?"
He Yushui looked at Zhang Lei and said, "I want to marry you as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Zhang Lei nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
Although changing one's age is against the rules, few people care about such things these days. After all, in the countryside, it's common for people to get married at fifteen or sixteen. Zhang Lei wanted to marry Yu Shui, but he just wanted to prevent He Yu Shui from getting pregnant so early.
Although He Yushui had changed the property deed to her own name, Jia Zhangshi was still unwilling to give up. However, she couldn't produce any favorable evidence, and the matter eventually had to be dropped. So she vented her anger by cursing in the streets of the Intermediate Court every day.
Zhang Lei saw this and immediately used the abilities of his personal space. Every time Jia Zhangshi scolded him, he would make her take something away from her house; every time she scolded him again, something else would be taken away.
Before long, Jia Zhangshi noticed that her house was becoming increasingly empty, with tables, chairs, benches, pots, and pans disappearing one after another. She became furious and insisted that people in the courtyard had stolen her things, demanding a full search of the entire courtyard.
Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui led the group to refuse on the spot. These days, who doesn't have some private things? If she really searched them one by one, wouldn't they all be found out?
Enraged, Jia Zhang called the police again. However, the police searched for a long time but couldn't find the so-called thief. Since the stolen items were all worthless junk, they didn't pay much attention to it.
Gradually, Jia Zhangshi figured out the pattern: whenever she cursed, something would inevitably go missing from the house. She was immediately terrified and never dared to curse in the yard again.
After dealing with Jia Zhangshi, Zhang Lei took gifts to Director Wang's house at the neighborhood office, bringing plenty of snacks for the children and some wild game he had collected from outside. Director Wang was all smiles and readily helped He Yushui change her age to eighteen.
Not long after, the two successfully obtained their marriage certificate, and He Yushui officially moved into the No. 90 courtyard house.
As soon as the news spread, Yu Haitang flew into a rage. She ran straight to courtyard house number 90 and pestered Zhang Lei, pleading, "Zhang Lei, Zhang Lei, I want to change my age too! I want to get a marriage certificate with you!"
Zhang Lei coaxed helplessly, "Rain is different from your situation, just wait a little longer."
Yu Haitang immediately shook her head: "I can't wait any longer! If we wait any longer, your and Yushui's child will be born soon!"
Zhang Lei was immediately overwhelmed.
Unable to bear it any longer, Yu Li grabbed Yu Haitang's ear and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? What child?"
Upon seeing her older sister's anger, Yu Haitang immediately wilted and muttered under her breath, "I finally managed to convince Mom and Dad, and I had to put on so many smiles to get them to agree to you marrying Zhang Lei. If they knew he was marrying someone else now, would they still approve? You better shut up and focus on your studies!"
Yu Haitang looked at Zhang Lei with a wronged expression, wanting comfort, but seeing Yu Li's unpleasant face, Zhang Lei could only stand silently to the side. Both of them were his children, so he could only pretend not to see.
In the end, Zhang Lei could only coax and deceive Yu Haitang into buying her a large amount of clothes and jewelry, thoroughly satisfying her vanity, before she finally gave up the idea of changing her age and getting married immediately.
In the evening, Zhang Lei first spent time with Yang Maixiang, then with He Wenhui, and finally came to He Yushui's room to quietly stay with her and give her a sense of security.
With Zhang Lei's attentive care, He Yushui gradually emerged from the grief of losing her father and brother.
