Chapter 397: A Little Jealous of Chu Tian
Chapter 397: A Little Jealous of Chu Tian
One day, Chu Tian met Bang Geng in the yard. When Bang Geng saw Chu Tian, a hint of hostility flashed in his eyes, but he quickly lowered his head and hurried past. Chu Tian looked at Bang Geng's back and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew that it would take time and patience for Bang Geng to truly realize his mistakes.
At the same time, Jia Zhang was also looking for an opportunity to take revenge. She found that Chu Tian often studied some records brought back from the tomb at night recently, so she decided to create some trouble at this time. One night, when Chu Tian was concentrating on studying the records, Jia Zhang quietly came to Chu Tian's window.
She deliberately made some noises to try to disturb Chu Tian. Chu Tian raised his head alertly after hearing the noises. He saw the dark shadow outside the window and immediately realized that it was Jia Zhang who was making trouble. He opened the door and walked out.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, what are you doing?" Chu Tian asked with a frown.
Jia Zhang pretended to be innocent, "I didn't do anything. I just passed by here and accidentally made a little noise."
Chu Tian knew that Jia Zhang was lying, but he didn't want to get entangled with her. "Jia Zhang, I hope you won't do these boring things again. We are all neighbors and should live in harmony."
Jia Zhang disagreed, "Humph, who wants to get along with you? You made us lose face at the whole hospital meeting, I won't let you go."
After saying that, Jia Zhang turned around and left. Chu Tian looked at her back, feeling helpless. He knew that Jia Zhang would not give up easily and might bring him more trouble in the future.
In the following days, Jia Zhang continued to cause trouble for Chu Tian. She would put some garbage at Chu Tian's door or spread some rumors about Chu Tian in the yard. Although Chu Tian was very angry, he didn't want to argue with her, so he could only avoid her as much as possible.
Yi Zhonghai also noticed Jia Zhang's behavior, and he knew that this was not a solution, so he decided to talk to Jia Zhang again, hoping that she would stop this unreasonable behavior.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, please stop causing trouble for Chu Tian. Doing so will not only destroy the harmony in the courtyard, but will also make everyone more dissatisfied with you." Yi Zhonghai said seriously.
Jia Zhang refused to listen to the advice, "Master, why do you always speak for Chu Tian? What's so good about him? He is just targeting our family on purpose."
Yi Zhonghai sighed, "Jia Zhang, you can't think like that. Chu Tian didn't target you, he just did what he should do. You should reflect on your own behavior instead of blindly retaliating against others."
Although Jia Zhang was dissatisfied, she did not dare to openly refute Yi Zhonghai. She could only restrain herself temporarily, but the resentment in her heart did not decrease.
Chu Tian also began to think about how to deal with the constant harassment from Jia Zhang. He knew that he couldn't just keep on being a passive victim and had to find a way to solve this problem. He decided to find some reasonable neighbors in the yard, hoping that they could help mediate.
After some efforts, Chu Tian finally found several neighbors who were willing to help. Together, they found Jia Zhang and patiently persuaded her to let go of her resentment and reconcile with Chu Tian. With everyone's persuasion, Jia Zhang's attitude finally softened.
"Okay, since everyone says so, I won't bother Chu Tian for the time being. But if he annoys me again, I won't be polite." Jia Zhang said.
Chu Tian also expressed his willingness to reconcile with Jia Zhangshi, "Jia Zhangshi, I don't want to have conflicts with you either. Let's get along well in the future."
After this mediation, the atmosphere in the courtyard finally eased. Everyone hoped that such things would not happen again in the future and that they could jointly maintain the harmony and stability in the courtyard. Chu Tian also learned from this incident how to better handle neighborhood relations. He knew that only by mutual understanding and tolerance in this courtyard could they live a peaceful life.
During the days in the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai looked at the fame Chu Tian had gained because of his adventures, and gradually he began to scheme.
Yi Zhonghai knew that although all the cultural relics Chu Tian brought back from the tomb had been handed over to the state, he felt that Chu Tian must have some private money. Especially when he saw that Chu Tian's life did not seem to become embarrassed because of handing over the cultural relics, he became more convinced of his guess.
One day, Yi Zhonghai found Sha Zhu and whispered to him, "Sha Zhu, look at Chu Tian, he has been doing very well recently. He must have gained a lot from the tomb, we can't let him take it all by himself."
Sha Zhu looked at Yi Zhonghai with some confusion, "Uncle, what do you mean by this? Didn't Chu Tian hand over all the cultural relics?"
Yi Zhonghai sneered, "Humph, after handing over the cultural relics, couldn't he leave something else? I see he lives a very comfortable life, and he must have hidden a lot of money. We have to find a way to get him to take out some of the money."
Sha Zhu hesitated for a moment, "This is not good, uncle. Chu Tian didn't provoke us, why should we count his money?"
Yi Zhonghai glared at Sha Zhu and said, "What do you know? Everyone in this courtyard has to help each other. If he has money, he should share it with everyone. Besides, we don't want his money for nothing. We will return it to him when we have the chance."
Under Yi Zhonghai's persuasion, Sha Zhu was gradually persuaded. So Yi Zhonghai began to plan how to take Chu Tian's money.
He first spread some rumors in the yard, saying that Chu Tian was actually very rich, but was just pretending to be poor and unwilling to help everyone. These rumors soon caused dissatisfaction among some people, and everyone began to have some opinions about Chu Tian.
Then, Yi Zhonghai found Qin Huairu again and said to her: "Qin Huairu, your family is living such a hard life, but Chu Tian has so much money but is unwilling to help everyone. You should talk to him and ask him to give some money to help your family."
Qin Huairu was originally a little jealous of Chu Tian, and after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, she also had some thoughts in her mind. She felt that what Yi Zhonghai said made sense, and since Chu Tian had money, he should help his neighbors.
So, Qin Huairu found Chu Tian and tactfully expressed her difficulties, hoping that Chu Tian could give her some money to help her. Chu Tian immediately understood that it was Yi Zhonghai who was behind this.
"Sister Qin, I really don't have any money. Those rumors are all false. I didn't get any money after handing over the cultural relics, and I support my own life through my own efforts." Chu Tian said firmly.
Qin Huairu didn't believe it, "Chu Tian, don't hide it from me. Everyone says you are rich, so please help our family. We are in such a difficult situation."
Chu Tian looked at Qin Huairu helplessly, knowing that no matter how he explained, she would not believe him. He decided to find Yi Zhonghai and ask him face to face why he was plotting against him.
Chu Tian came to Yi Zhonghai's house and said angrily: "Uncle, why are you spreading rumors in the yard and calculating my money?"
Yi Zhonghai pretended to be innocent, "Chu Tian, what are you talking about? How could I count on your money? I don't know where those rumors came from."
