Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 516 Pungent Smell

A trace of guilt flashed in Yi Zhonghai's eyes. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say "I'm sorry", but he couldn't say it clearly. Chu Tian looked at him, and his anger subsided a little, but he continued: "You see, you are sick now, and you should be able to feel everyone's attitude towards you. You used to be bad to everyone, and now everyone treats you like this, do you feel good? Between people, it's mutual. If you respect others, others will respect you." Yi Zhonghai lowered his head silently, tears welling up in his eyes. He seemed to have finally realized his past mistakes. Chu Tian felt a little sorry for him when he saw his appearance, and his tone softened: "Uncle Yi, I am not telling you this today to add insult to injury, but I hope you can understand this truth. We will all live in the same yard in the future, so we still have to get along well." Yi Zhonghai raised his head, wiped his tears with his not very flexible hands, and said vaguely: "Chu...Tian, ​​I'm...sorry..." Chu Tian smiled slightly and said: "Uncle Yi, don't say that. Let the past be the past, and we will all change in the future. You take good care of yourself, and when you recover, we will make this yard more harmonious together." Since then, Chu Tian often visited Yi Zhonghai and helped him do things within his ability. Under the leadership of Chu Tian, ​​other people in the yard gradually changed their attitude towards Yi Zhonghai, no longer laughed at him, but gave him some help and care. After this incident, Yi Zhonghai also completely changed his character and became humble and kind.

As the chef of the canteen, he has superb cooking skills, but his living habits are really not commendable. Especially since he has not taken a bath for a long time, the smell on his body can easily drive away people on half the street. On this day, the sun was shining, and Qin Huairu was sitting in the yard picking vegetables, preparing to make a delicious meal for the children. At this time, Sha Zhu hummed a little tune and came out of the house in a swagger. The pungent smell on his body instantly spread. Qin Huairu frowned, covered her nose with her hands, and said with disgust: "Sha Zhu, can you go take a shower? You stink so badly that it's unbearable to smell." Sha Zhu grinned nonchalantly and said: "Qin Huairu, what do you know, this is called manliness. Those who take a bath every day are not as manly as us men." After that, he deliberately straightened his chest with a smug look. Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at him and said, "You call yourself a man? You stink. Look, no one in this yard can stand your smell. The children always stay away from you when they see you." Sha Zhu smiled disapprovingly and said, "What do they know? When they grow up, they will know that this is the smell of a real man." At this moment, Qin Jingru came back from outside and smelled the unpleasant smell as she entered the yard. She wrinkled her nose and said exaggeratedly: "Oh, what's that smell? Brother Shazhu, you haven't taken a shower for a long time again, have you?" Shazhu smiled and said: "Jingru, your sister can't control me, so don't worry about it. A man has to have a little smell, otherwise he's like a woman." Qin Jingru covered her nose, shook her head repeatedly, and said: "Brother Shazhu, don't deceive yourself. The smell of you is not a man's smell, it's really stinky. If you continue like this, I'm afraid you won't even be able to find a partner in the future." Shazhu got a little anxious when he heard it, and said: "Jingru, don't talk nonsense. With my skills and looks, how can I not find a partner? Besides, people who really understand me will not dislike my smell." Qin Huairu couldn't help but sigh. She kept saying, "Shazhu, stop being stubborn. Look at you, you're so sloppy all day long. Which girl would be interested in you? If you really want to find a good wife, clean yourself up." Shazhu scratched his head and said, "I think I'm fine the way I am. Why do I have to change? Besides, taking a shower is so troublesome. I'm so busy in the cafeteria every day. How can I have the time to spare?" Qin Jingru curled her lips and said, "Brother Shazhu, you're just lazy. How long does it take to take a shower? If you continue like this, I think you'll be single in the future." Shazhu was a little annoyed and said, "Stop nagging here, both of you. Whether I take a shower or not is my business. It's none of your business." After that, he turned around and was about to go back to the house. Qin Huairu looked at his back, sighed helplessly, and said, "This Sha Zhu is really stubborn." Qin Jingru also said, "Sister, if he keeps being like this, what can we do in the future?" Qin Huairu shook her head and said, "Who knows, I hope he can get it one day." From then on, whenever Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru saw Sha Zhu, they would talk about his bathing. Sha Zhu would refute a few words at first, but later he simply pretended not to hear and did his own thing. Until one day, a new neighbor came to the yard, a young and beautiful girl. Sha Zhu was attracted at once, thinking that it would be great if he could chase this girl. He began to show himself in front of the girl intentionally or unintentionally, showing his cooking skills and helping to move things. But every time the girl saw him, she covered her nose and looked disgusted. Sha Zhu wondered in his heart, he performed well, why didn't the girl like him? Qin Jingru saw Sha Zhu's look and couldn't help but said with a smile: "Brother Sha Zhu, don't you understand why the girl doesn't like you? With the smell on your body, anyone would have to stay away from you." Sha Zhu suddenly realized that the smell on his body might indeed be a big obstacle to pursuing the girl. So, he finally made up his mind and took a bath. When Sha Zhu appeared in the yard cleanly, everyone was surprised. Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Oh, Sha Zhu, you finally took a bath? You look pretty energetic after washing it." Sha Zhu scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said: "There is no way. For my lifelong event, I have to change this bad habit." Qin Jingru also joked: "Brother Sha Zhu, it would be great if you did this earlier. Maybe the girl will look at you differently now." Since then, Sha Zhu has developed a good habit of taking a bath regularly, and there is no unpleasant smell on his body anymore. The minor friction between him and Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru because of this incident also disappeared, and the courtyard returned to its former harmony and joy. And because of his change, Sha Zhu's pursuit of the girl seemed to have a glimmer of hope.

Everyone worked together to clean up, mediate neighborhood conflicts, and organize various cultural activities. Sha Zhu was even more devoted to it. He used his cooking skills to prepare food for various activities for everyone, and took the initiative to take on many dirty and tiring tasks. Finally, the day of the selection arrived. When the judges walked into the courtyard, they saw a clean and tidy courtyard full of laughter.
