Siheyuan: a flat life

Chapter 199 Was it intentional or accidental?

"Sister Meng, which sister Meng?" Zhou Hei asked quickly.

Wang Ming said with a smile, "It's the sister Meng who has three children, and her family lives next door."

A tall man next to Zhou Hei said, "Is it Meng Xilian, the widow of Meng?"

"Tsk tsk, she is a famous beauty here."

"But I heard that she is a serious woman, and there is no way to hook up with her."

"She has been a widow for so long, and she has never heard of anything she had with any other man."

Zhou Guangming pondered secretly, and muttered: "I'm afraid this Yi Zhonghai approached him in the name of doing good deeds."

Wang Ming looked strange and asked, "Brother Zhou Hei, what are you talking about?"

"What's wrong with him?"

Zhou Hei put on a smiling face and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little surprised that I didn't expect to meet Comrade Yi Zhonghai here."

"By the way, do you know how he helped sister Meng?"

"How long have they been dating?"

"How is his relationship with your sister Meng?"

Wang Ming thought for a while and said, "I don't know when they met."

"I saw Sister Meng for the first time today."

"But the uncle is very kind to Sister Meng."

"He promised to give the 60 yuan he gave me every month, as well as those food stamps and meat stamps, to Sister Meng's family."

"In this way, Sister Meng's family will not have to live so hard."

"Although I was a little reluctant at first, but after the uncle criticized me, I admitted my mistake."

"I also think it's better to give the money to Sister Meng's family and let them use it instead of letting me eat a few good meals."

"And I plan to come over often in the future to help their family and send them some food."

"It's just that I may have fewer opportunities to eat roast duck in the future, and I won't be able to see you often, Brother Zhou Hei."

Zhou Hei's eyes lit up even more after hearing this.

In the name of helping Meng Xilian, Yi Zhonghai cut off the aid to Wang Ming.

Not only to save the money for Wang Ming, but also to use the money to support the widow.

Really killing two birds with one stone.

But this also fully proves his hypocrite nature.

Otherwise, why would you give 60 yuan a month to the widow's family.

If you really just want to do good deeds, you won't be able to give so much money every month.

After a while, he took this matter as an entry point and asked Yi Zhonghai what he wanted to do.

He quickly asked: "Xiao Ming, where is your uncle now?"

Wang Ming pointed to the yard, "He's still moving things inside, he should be coming out soon, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Zhonghai came out with a lot of things in his arms.

And when he saw Zhou Hei looking at him with a smile on his face, he became nervous for a moment.

Originally, he hadn't seen Zhou Hei for several months, thinking that this kid would never show up again.

Didn't expect to meet here again.

If Zhou Hei knew what he was doing now, he might find a way to slander him.

Thinking of this, he had a bad premonition.

At this time Zhou Hei greeted him with a smile, "Comrade Yi Zhonghai, long time no see."

"I really didn't expect to meet you here."

"What are you doing here?"

Yi Zhonghai greeted him with a smile, "It's nothing, just helping a friend move."

He said and put the things in his hand on the cart.

Zhou Hei asked with a smile, "What kind of friend?"

"Tell me, I might still know you."

Yi Zhonghai didn't want Zhou Hei to know about his relationship with Meng Xilian, and wanted to cover up the past.

He smiled and said, "Hi, it's a poor family I helped."

"His family doesn't have much labor and can't move things, so I brought Xiao Ming here."

"Male and female?" Zhou Hei continued to ask.

Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "A man."

"He's disabled and can't move things."

Zhou Hei and the two men beside him looked at each other and smiled badly.

"Haha, Comrade Yi Zhonghai, why are you lying to us?"

"I've heard from Xiao Ming that you helped Widow Meng in this street."

"Where is the disabled man?"

Zhou Hei's cousin, the tall and thin man from before said with a smile, "Heizi, I always hear you praise Yi Zhonghai as a good comrade."

"He's a gentleman."

"And he had a deep affection for his dead wife, and promised to keep a filial piety for six years."

"Why is he covering up after helping the widow now? What is he hiding?"

When he was drinking and chatting with Zhou Hei before, he often heard Zhou Hei talk about interesting things about dealing with Yi Zhonghai.

He also understood that Zhou Hei wanted to expose Yi Zhonghai, but he never succeeded.

Now, he naturally knew what Zhou Hei wanted to do, so he sang a double reed with Zhou Hei.

A trace of surprise flashed in Yi Zhonghai's eyes.

He didn't expect Zhou Hei to know that he was here to help Meng Xilian move.

Zhou Hei deliberately pretended not to ask, which was a trap for him.

He glanced at Wang Ming angrily, and gritted his teeth secretly.

Did Wang Ming do it on purpose or by accident?
Why did you tell Zhou Hei about Meng Xilian so quickly?

Wang Ming looked at him with a puzzled expression, and asked in puzzlement, "Master, aren't we here to help Sister Meng move?"

"Why are you lying to Brother Zhou Hei?"

Looking at Wang Ming's puzzled eyes, Yi Zhonghai also felt that Wang Ming couldn't do it on purpose.

Seeing that Wang Ming was here, Zhou Hei must have asked what Wang Ming was doing here.

Naturally, Wang Ming would not lie, so he could only explain everything in detail.

Naturally, Zhou Hei was able to follow the clues and ask questions.

He thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Hey, it's not that I want to hide this matter."

"After all, she is a widow, and her reputation is quite good."

"If I know what I did for her, I'm afraid people will misunderstand."

"If she wants to save face in the future, I'm afraid she will be embarrassed to accept my help."

"I lied to avoid that."

"But I didn't expect you to know already."

"Since this is the case, please don't talk nonsense."

"People like to speak ill of others behind their backs these days."

"Even if you do something good, it can still be called a bad thing."

"Furthermore, the more you say it, the more exaggerated it is."

"For example, I used to have a good reputation before, and I am quite famous in the four or nine cities."

"But just because my wife passed away, people outside spread rumors that I killed my wife."

"Later, it became more and more exaggerated, which made my reputation bad."

"Now my reputation is not very good. If others know about my helping widows, rumors will spread all over the sky."

"In this regard, I have suffered a lot, so I just want to do good deeds silently, and I don't want people to know what relationship I have with Xilian."

"Otherwise, not only will I, a kind-hearted person who helps others, be left behind, but even Xilian's family, a needy family that needs help, will not be able to get help."
