Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 131 Humiliation
"Before, I was away and no one was watching over him, so his temper became wild. Now that I'm back, I have plenty of time. I can teach him a little bit every day and eventually he will be able to be brought up."

He Daqing dusted off his clothes and then smiled easily.

You have to control your temper towards Sha Zhu next time. This is your last chance, and you have to beat him until he lowers his head.

"That's true. You'll eventually learn it if you teach it slowly. Uncle He, we'll go back first. I'll come and call you when I go to look for Nan Yi tomorrow."

Zhou Weimin nodded in agreement, looked with some pity at Sha Zhu who was standing stupidly behind He Daqing, then turned and left with his wife and brother.

He Daqing watched the rain enter the house before closing the door. The smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a sneer that made Sha Zhu shudder.

Sha Zhu knew that he would be beaten again tonight.

More than half an hour later, the sound of percussion music came from He Daqing's house, sometimes dull and sometimes crisp.

……

The next morning, Zhou Weimin got out of bed feeling refreshed.

After these days of adjustment, Jiang Qiuna was finally able to adapt to the time of more than an hour and made rapid progress.

I can only describe the energy I felt last night as being refreshed both physically and mentally.

Considering Jiang Qiuna’s hard work last night, Zhou Weimin made breakfast for once.

After Jiang Qiuna woke up, she went to the Central Courtyard to find He Daqing.

Perhaps because today was a rest day at the factory, everyone got up much later than usual.

When Zhou Weimin arrived at the central courtyard, he saw Yi Zhonghai standing next to the faucet. He wanted to squat down but looked at He Daqing in front of him with hesitation.

"Yi Zhonghai, is this how you usually behave in the yard? You squat when you need to, but you've been standing by the faucet for ten minutes. Do you want me to use the water?"

He Daqing put his hands in his sleeves, standing only two meters away from Yi Zhonghai, his eyes full of mockery.

"He Daqing, I don't want to argue with you this early in the morning. I've agreed to everything you asked for. Caifeng has also been to the hospital and walked around underground. What else do you want?"

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth, unable to express his pain, with deep anxiety and fear in his eyes.

"Yi Zhonghai, what are you talking about? Don't make it sound like I owe you something. It's not up to you to decide whether we are even. Even if we are even, do you still expect me to be nice to you? Who will give you that?"

He Daqing looked at Yi Zhonghai with contempt, with no intention of moving away.

The two families are now enemies, and he will not miss the opportunity to humiliate Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned pale and blue when he heard what was said.

Zhou Weimin glanced at Yi Zhonghai with some regret, then stood by the hallway and asked with a smile, "Uncle He, we are ready to go. Have you packed up yet?"

He Daqing turned around, dusted off his clothes and said cheerfully, "I'm done. I'll go back and put the washbasin down and come out soon."

Zhou Weimin nodded, casually glanced at He Yuzhu who walked out of the house as usual, and looked at He Daqing's back with a strange expression.

He Daqing really meant to kill his son when he taught him a lesson.

When he left He Daqing's house yesterday, he knew that he would inevitably be beaten by He Yuzhu.

I just didn't expect that He Daqing would be so cruel to his own son. He really avoided the vital parts and the face without showing any mercy.

When He Yuzhu saw Zhou Weimin, he subconsciously rolled up his sleeves, didn't say anything bad, quickly washed up and went back to the house.

When He Daqing came out of the house, he didn't say hello to Sha Zhu, but instead had two bottles of wine in his hands.

"Wei Min, let's go." "Uncle He, what are you doing?"

Zhou Weimin asked casually and turned to walk forward.

"Although Yi Zhonghai was responsible for what happened to Master Nan Yi, it was ultimately caused by Sha Zhu. I have to go over and apologize anyway."

He Daqing narrowed his eyes as usual, but his tone was very helpless.

Zhou Weimin grinned and said lightly, "That's right. Master Nan Yi is not unreasonable. He will definitely not embarrass you."

He Daqing wasn't trying to apologize to Nan Yi at all. He was clearly apologizing to him on behalf of Sha Zhu. But the way he did it was really comforting.

Just as the two were about to walk out the door, hurried footsteps were heard behind them.

Liu Guangtian trotted over to the two men and asked nervously, "Brother Weimin, are you going to look for Master Nanyi? Can I go with you? I can help you a little."

Zhou Weimin and He Daqing looked at each other, then stopped and said with a smile: "Guangtian, we are just visiting. Can you tell me what's going on? There's no rush."

"Brother Weimin, I just want to follow you and do things. Can you lead me?"

When Liu Guangtian saw Zhou Weimin stop, he didn't say any polite words and directly expressed his thoughts.

Just like Yan Jiecheng, he went to work as a temporary worker in a factory after graduating from junior high school. Ever since his eldest brother got married and the family fortune was drained, he had to pay for whatever he wanted to eat.

When his father Liu Haizhong was in a bad mood, he would beat him and Guangfu. He dreamed of leaving home.

After Yi Zhonghai stepped down yesterday, Liu Haizhong's authority in the family became even greater than before. He was beaten up just for talking back. He really couldn't stay in this family anymore.

Now the only person who can give him hope of escaping from that home is Zhou Weimin, so he wants to give it a try no matter what.

Zhou Weimin smiled at the burly and fierce-looking Liu Guangtian in front of him, and said with interest: "Work with me? Guangtian, I'm just the deputy director of the factory cafeteria, I can't help you get a permanent job."

"I know that if I help Brother Weimin, he will definitely not let me down, even if I don't get a permanent job."

Liu Guangtian was young and frivolous at that time, full of edges and corners, and his words and actions were somewhat youthful.

Looking at his determined eyes, Zhou Weimin nodded without comment, and walked out of the yard without saying a word.

Liu Guangtian stared blankly, not knowing whether he should follow.

"Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Follow me."

He Daqing patted him on the shoulder, said something with a smile, and followed Zhou Weimin.

Lao Liu's second son is smarter than his eldest brother and knows how to find opportunities.

But looking at this, the second child will probably have to leave the yard in the future, and when Liu Haizhong gets old, there may be no children to take care of him.

"Thank you, thank you Uncle He."

Upon hearing this, Liu Guangtian immediately followed and did not forget to express his gratitude.

Zhou Weimin listened to the noise behind him, smiled silently, and quickened his pace.

Soon, the three of them entered the yard where Nan Yi was.

But before entering the yard, I heard a strange yet familiar curse.

"Nan, you will not live a good life. What grudge does Shunming have against you? You hired someone to beat him up like this! If you don't give me an explanation today, I will hit my head and die in front of your house!"
