Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

"I knew that Yan Jiefang was not a good person..." Yu Li agreed after listening to Tang Dashan's introduction.

"My father also said that good people would not easily speak ill of others behind their backs. People like Yan Jiefang who slander others behind their backs are definitely not good people."

Seeing Yu Li's indignant expression, Tang Dashan quickly asked, "Do you know Yan Jiefang?"

"What do you mean by saying bad things about people behind their backs? I don't quite understand."

Yu Li did not hide anything and quickly told her about how Yan Jiefang stopped her on the road, slandered Tang Dashan, boasted about himself, and made Yu Li his girlfriend.

Although Tang Dashan is honest, it doesn't mean he has no temper.

I got angry after hearing that.

He put down the unwashed dishes in his hands and walked out, cursing as he walked: "You are so good, Yan Fugui, you actually used your eldest son to steal the girl of my fellow villager Tang Dashan, you are so honest."

He went straight to Yan Fugui's house, and when he got to the door, he knocked on it angrily: "Yan Jiefang...get out of here..."

"Dashan, what are you doing madly in my house?" When Yan Fugui opened the door, he saw Tang Dashan standing at the door with an angry face, while Yu Li was standing behind Tang Dashan with a worried face. He instantly realized that his act of letting Yan Jiecheng intercept Tang Dashan's blind date had been exposed.

But this matter definitely cannot involve me, so I pretended to be confused and asked back.

"I'm going crazy..."

"Yan Fugui, I respect you as the third uncle of our courtyard. Usually, everyone who sees you will respectfully call you Uncle Yan."

"I didn't expect you to be so shameless..."

"The whole front yard of the courtyard knows that Comrade Yu Li is my blind date. As a teacher, you actually instigated your Yan Jiefang to slander me on the way home and say bad things about me, so that Yu Li could be Yan Jiefang's blind date."

"Why...you don't want to admit it after you've done it."

"Hurry up and call your boss over. If you don't believe me, let's confront each other face to face."

"If I'm wrong, I apologize to you now."

"If this matter is the responsibility of your Yan family, apologize to me and Comrade Yu Li immediately."

"It's not that I look down on your boss."

"Although Yan Jiefang graduated from high school and is more educated than me, he doesn't even have a formal employee status. He is just an apprentice in the steel mill workshop. He has the same stingy personality as you. How can he compare with me, a level 10 chef?"

"He also slandered me and said bad things about me in front of Comrade Yu Li. Does he have the ability to do that?"

Seeing that Tang Dashan was getting angrier and angrier as he spoke, more and more neighbors gathered around to watch the fun, and Yan Fugui also began to get anxious.

But he was not afraid of the cook Tang Dashan at all.

He is an elementary school teacher, and the steel mill has no control over him. In addition, the shortage of materials in the old city has been greatly alleviated, and it is unlikely that the previous shortage will occur at home.

Yan Fugui, who claims to be a cultured person, doesn't take Yi Zhonghai, the second uncle in the yard, or Wang Dong, the deputy director of the steel mill's kitchen, seriously.

He refuted on the spot: "Tang Dashan..."

"What nonsense are you talking about."

"How is it possible that a teacher like me would use my own son to steal your blind date?"

"It is illegal to slander someone without evidence."

"I'm telling you Tang Dashan..."

"Get out of my house right now, or I'll go to the police and tell them you're slandering me."

Yan Jiefang and Yan Fugui are family members. Even if Yan Fugui is the mastermind behind this matter, Yan Jiefang will not betray Yan Fugui as long as Yan Fugui gives him a look, even if the two of them confront each other. After all, Yan Jiefang's future work, finding a wife, buying a house... all depend on Yan Fugui's support.

Moreover, this is just a moral issue and does not involve any violation of the law for the time being. If the two sides continue to be deadlocked like this, I won't be able to gain much advantage.

Plus Yu Li was standing right next to him.

After all, she hasn't married me yet, and it would definitely not be good for her if I made a big deal out of it now.

He clenched his fist and answered angrily: "Okay... Yan Fugui..."

"Today, I will not trouble you for Comrade Yu Li's sake, but we are not done with this matter... You can ask Yan Jiefang to wait..."

After saying that, he hurriedly took Yu Li back to his home.

Wang Dong happened to hear the sound and rushed over. He chased Tang Dashan and asked, "Dashan? What's going on?"

"I remember that there seemed to be nothing wrong between you and Yan Fugui, why did you suddenly start arguing?"

Tang Dashan quickly explained: "Master..."

"This Yan Fugui is going too far."

"He knew that Comrade Yu Li was my blind date, but he still persuaded Yan Jiefang to intercept Yu Li on her way home, and said bad things about me behind my back, so that Yu Li would be his date."

"I am a man, I will not stand this kind of grievance. I will teach Yan Fugui and Yan Jiefang a lesson no matter what."

"We must also force them to apologize to Comrade Yu Li."

"This incident was caused by me, and I absolutely cannot let Yu Li suffer because of me."

After hearing this, Wang Dong couldn't help but glared at Tang Dashan and asked, "Is that all? There's nothing else."

Seeing Tang Dashan shaking his head, Wang Dong cursed with a look of disappointment: "You too..."

"You forgot what your master does. Why did you go straight to that old fox Yan Fugui instead of looking for your master when something happened?"

"Since he dared to let Yan Jiefang steal your blind date, he must not be afraid that you will cause trouble."

"After all, you and Comrade Yu Li are not married yet."

"As long as the two parties are not married, it is not against the law for him to pursue Yu Li. This is also true if the matter is brought to the streets."

"Isn't Yan Jiefang an apprentice in a workshop at the steel mill?"

"Your master is at least the deputy director of the kitchen at the steel mill. Although I am young, I am also a cadre and know many leaders. I can't deal with a senior fitter like Yi Zhonghai, but I can easily deal with an apprentice."

"It just so happens that I know a workshop director. I'll ask him to find a new job for Yan Jiefang tomorrow."

"You are so good, Yan Jiefang and Yan Fugui, don't you know that Tang Dashan is my apprentice? You bully me now."

"Also, in order to prevent a scoundrel like Yan Jiefang from continuing to slander you on Comrade Yu Li's way home, as someone recognized by the Yu family, shouldn't you protect Comrade Yu Li on her way home?"

"Come to my house later and get a cured chicken as a gift from Master to congratulate you on becoming a couple."

"Go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy a bottle of wine later. If you don't have a wine ticket, come get one from me. When you send Yu Li home, go visit her parents and get to know them."

"Since they have agreed to your relationship, as their future son-in-law, you should express your gratitude. Do you understand?"

"Remember next time, when you are a person and do things, you must learn to use your brain, stand up more, watch more, think more, talk less, and don't rush forward at every turn." (End of this chapter)
