Chapter 507 Stunned
With everyone's encouragement, Sha Zhu regained hope. In the following days, people in the courtyard began to offer suggestions for Sha Zhu's restaurant, with those who had money contributing money and those who had strength contributing strength.
The first uncle took out part of his savings over the years, and the second and third uncles also chipped in some money. Qin Huairu helped to find suitable stores. Chu Tian used his connections to contact some reliable food suppliers for Sha Zhu. After a period of preparation, Sha Zhu's restaurant finally opened. On the opening day, everyone in the courtyard came to support it, and the restaurant was very lively.
While Sha Zhu's restaurant was booming and the courtyard was immersed in a harmonious atmosphere, something unexpected happened in the courtyard. Recently, Liu Haizhong always went out early and came back late, and his whereabouts were very strange. Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui saw it and were puzzled. Liu Haizhong usually followed the routine, and suddenly he was so abnormal that it was really hard to figure out. After some discussion, the two decided to follow Liu Haizhong secretly to see what he was doing. In the early morning of that day, just after dawn, Liu Haizhong went out quietly. Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui followed from a distance, being cautious all the way, for fear of being discovered. They followed Liu Haizhong through several alleys and came to a busy street. What stunned the two was that Liu Haizhong walked straight to the trash can on the street, bent down, and began to search. He took out cardboard boxes from the trash can, sorted them carefully, and put them into the large sack he brought with him. Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui looked at each other, their faces full of disbelief. The dignified second uncle was actually rummaging through the trash can and picking up cardboard boxes in public. They followed all the way and saw this scene, and they felt mixed emotions. Thinking back to the time when Liu Haizhong always put on airs in the yard, and now he has to do this job for a living, it is really sad. However, after calming down and thinking about it, they gradually understood Liu Haizhong's difficulties. Liu Haizhong's two sons have already started their own families, but they don't care about their father. Liu Haizhong has no other source of income, and the pressure of life can be imagined. After Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui returned to the courtyard, they told other neighbors about this. Everyone felt very distressed after hearing it. "I didn't expect the second uncle to have such a hard life. We all live in the same courtyard. We can't just watch and do nothing." Qin Huairu said with a frown. "Yes, we have to help him." Sha Zhu also echoed on the side. Chu Tian pondered for a moment and said, "We can help Second Uncle think of a way to find a more suitable livelihood, which is better than going through the trash cans." Everyone nodded in agreement. So everyone began to make suggestions for Liu Haizhong. Sha Zhu thought that there would be a lot of discarded cartons and beverage bottles in his restaurant every day, so he said, "In the future, these things in my restaurant will be kept for Second Uncle, so he doesn't have to go through the trash cans outside." Qin Huairu also said that she could help Liu Haizhong contact some waste collectors and let them collect them directly in the courtyard, which would save some trouble. Chu Tian used his connections to find a job for Liu Haizhong to help sort goods in a nearby warehouse. Although the salary was not high, it was a stable income after all. When everyone told Liu Haizhong these ideas, his eyes instantly turned red. He never thought that he always liked to put on airs in the courtyard on weekdays, and his relationship with everyone was not close, but when he was in the most difficult time, everyone could lend a hand. "Thank you, thank you everyone..." Liu Haizhong was so excited that his voice trembled a little. Since then, Liu Haizhong no longer went out early and came back late to rummage through the trash cans. He worked seriously in the warehouse, and in his spare time, he sorted out the waste sent by Shazhu Restaurant. His life gradually got back on track, and a smile appeared on his face again. Through this incident, the neighborhood relationship in the Siheyuan became more harmonious. Everyone understood that in this courtyard, everyone will encounter difficulties, and only by supporting each other can life become better. And the story of the Siheyuan continues to write new chapters in this warm mutual assistance, witnessing everyone's growth and change.
On the edge of the town, there lived a young hunter named Chu Tian. He was agile and sharp-eyed, and knew every inch of the forest like the back of his hand. His friend Lin Feng, although not as experienced as Chu Tian, was passionate about hunting and had always been eager to show his skills in the forest. On this day, the sun shone through the mottled leaves and sprinkled on the path leading to the forest. Chu Tian and Lin Feng, carrying hunting rifles and sharp daggers on their waists, embarked on a hunting trip. Lin Feng looked around excitedly, his eyes full of expectations for the unknown, while Chu Tian looked calm and kept an eye on the surrounding movements. Not long after entering the forest, Chu Tian found a series of fresh footprints. He squatted down, observed carefully, and whispered to Lin Feng: "These are the footprints of a hare. It should have just passed by not long ago. Let's follow the footprints to look for it." The two carefully followed the footprints. Lin Feng's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, and the hunting rifle in his hand was held tighter. Suddenly, there was a slight movement in the grass ahead. Chu Tian immediately signaled Lin Feng to keep quiet, and the two slowly approached. They saw a fat hare eating grass, unaware of the approaching danger. Lin Feng was so excited that he was breathing rapidly. He raised his hunting rifle and was about to pull the trigger. Chu Tian quickly reached out and held down his gun, whispering, "Don't worry, the distance is too far, it's not easy to hit, wait until it gets closer." The hare seemed to have noticed something, raised its head and looked around vigilantly. At the moment it was about to escape, Chu Tian decisively pulled the trigger, and with a "bang", the hare fell down. Lin Feng ran over excitedly, picked up the hare, and exclaimed, "Brother Chu, your shooting skills are really amazing!" Chu Tian smiled slightly and said, "You can't be impatient when hunting, you have to seize the opportunity." The two continued to go deeper into the forest and unknowingly came to a more dense area. The trees here are tall, with intertwined branches and leaves, and the sun can hardly penetrate. Lin Feng felt a little uneasy in his heart, but seeing Chu Tian's calm expression, he also cheered himself up.
Suddenly, a deep roar came from the front, as if some large wild animal was roaring. Lin Feng's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on his hunting rifle. Chu Tian frowned and whispered, "From the sound, it sounds like a wild boar, and it doesn't look friendly." As soon as he finished speaking, a huge wild boar rushed out of the woods, its eyes were red, its fangs were exposed, and it rushed towards the two men aggressively.
