Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

At this time, He Yuzhu finally calmed down from his anger, and then he became panic-stricken.

An old man paid a huge price and accepted himself as the godfather in order to keep his job in the steel rolling mill.

It would be a great loss if I were sent to a labor camp and lose my job at the steel mill because of an impulsive beating.

The moment I calmed down, my heart was in my throat, fearing that Xu Damao would really go to the street to find me.

He really wanted to beg Xu Damao for mercy, but he couldn't do it for the sake of face. He could only place his hope on Yi Zhonghai, hoping that he could stop Xu Damao.

When I heard Xu Damao agreed to pay 20 yuan to settle the matter, I immediately felt relieved.

Subconsciously, I wanted to give money to Xu Damao.

I reached into my pocket and realized I had no money.

Although he borrowed ten yuan from Wang Dong today, he had already lent nine yuan of it to Qin Huairu, and only had a few cents left.

Moreover, Yi Zhonghai couldn't know that he was asking Wang Dong to borrow money, so he couldn't take out the few cents in his pocket.

He immediately transferred his anger to Yi Zhonghai and said helplessly, "Godfather..."

"I don't have any money..."

Yi Zhonghai didn't expect He Yuzhu to take the money himself.

He now helps to collect his own salary, so he definitely has no money on hand, so he decisively took out twenty yuan from his own pocket and handed it to Xu Damao.

I feel very depressed.

He originally wanted to use the incident of finding the chicken thief to re-establish his prestige in Siheyuan, but in the end, instead of establishing his prestige, he lost twenty yuan and embarrassed himself in Siheyuan again.

I subconsciously wanted to adjourn the meeting.

Before he could finish his words, Xu Damao spoke first: "It seems that the three of you can't find out who stole the chicken..."

"In this case, I'll give you one night..."

"If someone comes to me to pay me back, I will just pretend nothing happened..."

"If no one comes to me tonight and offers to compensate me..."

"I'm sorry, I'll go find the police early tomorrow morning."

"After all, the three uncles are not police officers, so they don't know how to find the chicken thief. But the police are professionals, and they will definitely be able to find the chicken thief if they take action."

"By then, it won't be as simple as compensation."

"An old hen is worth five yuan. If we are caught by the police, three months of forced labor would be the lightest punishment..."

After saying that, he walked home without looking back, not giving Yi Zhonghai any face at all.

…………

The east wing of the front yard.

Wang Dong returned home and said to Chen Dehui: "Uncle Chen...Xu Damao's move today was powerful, and he hit Yi Zhonghai's weak spot directly."

"After what happened today, Yi Zhonghai will be very dissatisfied with Xu Damao and will definitely find a way to deal with him. Then he will have no time to deal with me, a troublemaker."

Uncle Chen smiled and continued, "If you encounter difficulties, go to the street office or the police... Xu Damao learned this from you."

"But it's good this way. Once everyone gets used to looking for the street, the title of a great uncle will only exist in name in the yard. In the future, if he wants to show off in the yard, no one will give him face."

"As for Old Yi looking for trouble with Xu Damao..."

"Xu Damao is not a vegetarian either."

"After what happened today, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yi Zhonghai is afraid of the streets and the police."

"As long as Xu Damao sticks to his principles and goes to the street office when he has problems, Lao Yi really has no good way to deal with him." "The only thing he can do is to target his wife, after all, Lou Xiao'e is still a capitalist."

"But Lao Yi doesn't dare to act rashly."

"Although the Lou family is a capitalist and a target of attack, they are well-rooted. The name Lou Bancheng is not for nothing. They still have a lot of power in the city. If Yi Zhonghai attacks Lou Xiaoe and the Lou family finds out, he will not get any good results."

"Anyway... this is good news for you!"

"The more fiercely Lao Yi and Xu Damao quarrel, the less time they will pay attention to you, and the fewer opportunities they will have to do something bad to you. Maybe they can even reap the benefits!"

"In case……"

"You can give Xu Damao some advice at the critical moment!"

"Didn't he want to win you over to fight against Xu Damao and He Yuzhu?"

“As the old saying goes: The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

"Help Xu Damao appropriately so that Yi Zhonghai can't easily deal with him. It would be best if Yi Zhonghai could suffer two more losses. Then the hatred between Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao will become deeper and deeper, and he will be even less able to care about you in the future!"

When Wang Dong was thinking about how to further intensify the conflict between Xu Damao and Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu suddenly stuck her head out of the house.

After making sure that there was no one in the yard, he ran to Xu Damao's house in the dark.

"Da Mao... Is Damao at home? I'm your sister Qin, I have something to talk to you about..."

"Qin Huairu...what are you doing here? Could it be that someone stole my old hen?" Xu Damao asked with a frown as he opened the door.

Qin Huairu immediately retorted: "Da Mao, please don't talk nonsense..."

"My dog ​​is a good boy and he will definitely not steal your hen!"

Seeing Lou Xiao'e sticking her head out from the inner room to eavesdrop on her conversation with Xu Damao, Qin Huairu continued, "Da Mao, don't you often go to the countryside to show movies? You must go to Qinjia Village... I want you to bring some things back to my mother's house for me..."

"Can you come out and talk?"

Lou Xiao'e was afraid that Xu Damao would have an affair with the widow Qin Huairu. When she heard that Qin Huairu just wanted her husband to bring some things to the countryside, her vigilance instantly disappeared.

I no longer had the desire to continue listening and just closed the door and went to sleep!
Xu Damao was also very envious of Qin Huairu, but Qin Huairu never wanted to have anything to do with him, so he had no chance to take advantage of her.

Now that Qin Huairu asked him for help, Xu Damao suddenly felt that his chance had come.

Without thinking much, he walked directly to a corner of the yard with Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu quickly glanced around and made sure that there was no one in the yard before speaking: "Da Mao..."

"Can we just forget about stealing the chicken..."

"Don't call the police tomorrow, I beg you!"

After hearing this, if Xu Damao still didn't understand Qin Huairu's real purpose in looking for him, then he would have lived in vain for more than 20 years.

He snorted coldly and asked back: "Okay..."

"I didn't expect that my old hen was really stolen by Bang Geng... No wonder Sha Zhu just provoked me with words and asked me to give up looking for the chicken thief..."

"You don't want me to call the police..."

"Just pay me twenty bucks and I won't tell anyone!"

Qin Huairu immediately revealed a tearful expression and pretended to be in pain!

"Da Mao... didn't they say a chicken was only six yuan? How come it suddenly increased to twenty yuan? This is too much!"

"You also know that my family's money is in the hands of my mother-in-law. How can I get so much money? Can you pity Sister Qin and ask for less?" (End of this chapter)
