After Yi Zhonghai joined forces with the deaf old lady, he used these grand principles to seek personal gain.

If you look at his words in isolation, they make some sense.

Especially for older people, Yi Zhonghai's words are a powerful tool for self-defense.

Therefore, Yi Zhonghai's supporters have been continuous.

Even knowing his purpose, those people didn't care.

Because Yi Zhonghai wouldn't scheme against them.

What does Yi Zhonghai's scheming against others have to do with them?

The people in courtyard number 95 were the most deeply poisoned by Yi Zhonghai's ideology.

They showed their agreement after hearing Yi Zhonghai's words.

Yi Zhonghai was finally satisfied after seeing this.

If someone supports him, it proves that what he did was right.

Unfortunately, these people were not from the Jia family.

The men in the Jia family aren't very good, but the women are extremely shrewd.

Under the leadership of Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu, the Jia family was not harmed by Yi Zhonghai.

Jia Zhangshi spat at Yi Zhonghai's retreating figure, "Easier said than done."

Turning her head to glance at the group of people who had been fooled, Jia Zhangshi sneered.

If we compare the courtyard houses to a food chain, the Jia family would be at the very top.

The more people Yi Zhonghai harms, the more the Jia family profits.

She wished Yi Zhonghai would deceive more people.

As for reminding the people in the courtyard, that's Old Jia's job.

What they had to do was send these people to see Lao Jia.

Once things quieted down in the courtyard, Qin Huairu finally spoke: "Did you hear what they were saying outside?"

You think I want to offend the people in the hospital?

I had no choice in the matter.

Back then, the three old men, together with the deaf old woman, acted like tyrants in the courtyard, and no one dared to disobey them.

In the entire courtyard, only that simpleton Sha Zhu dared to stand up to them.

Xu Damao, Li Dagen, and their ilk are at most outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant towards them.

If our family doesn't listen to them, we won't be able to survive in the courtyard house.

I had no choice.

These words did not win Tang Yanling's empathy.

When faced with self-interest, emotions are nothing more than a worthless piece of paper.

Tang Yanling didn't care how hard Qin Huairu had lived in the past; all she knew was that because of Qin Huairu, she had also suffered.

Qin Huairu tried to appeal to Tang Yanling's emotions while keeping a close eye on her.

Seeing Tang Yanling's nonchalant expression, she wasn't angry.

Tang Yanling's behavior at this moment reassured her a lot.

The path she chose was destined to be full of temptations. Most people simply couldn't walk it.

You need a resolute heart to keep going.

Qin Huairu continued, "Don't assume that Xu Damao is a good person."

Others may not know, but we, the old neighbors in this courtyard house, know it very well.

Xu Damao has never been a good person since he was a child…

Tang Yanling interrupted Qin Huairu with some annoyance.

"Stop saying all this, okay?"

Isn't it for the sake of our family that I'm on good terms with Uncle Xu?

Even if I say a hundred nice things to him, it doesn't necessarily change his opinion of me.

Your one sentence, "He's a villain," negates everything I've done.

You all keep calling him a scoundrel, but what wicked things has he actually done?

Qin Huairu wasn't angry and slowly said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Let me finish telling you.

"Go ahead," Tang Yanling said, wanting to see what Qin Huairu could say.

Qin Huairu said, "You don't understand Xu Damao."

He seems like a good person now, but do you know what he used to be like?
When Xu Damao was fourteen, he was already messing around outside.

Because of her promiscuity, she ruined her health and has been married for several years without having children.

Later, I went to Peking Union Medical College Hospital and took medication for several years before I finally had a daughter.

Tang Yanling had heard these rumors, but they weren't as complete as Qin Huairu had described.

"How do you know he was messing around outside when he was fourteen?" Qin Huairu's face flushed slightly, but the blush quickly disappeared.

She automatically ignored her relationship with Xu Damao and didn't think that being with Xu Damao was fooling around.

"Of course, someone saw it. At that time, BJ had just abolished brothels."

Many prostitutes have reformed, but they can't get used to a life of hardship.

In order to live a better life, many people secretly return to their old professions.

Tang Yanling happened to have heard about this. There was a woman like that living near her home.

Tang Yanling had no evidence and couldn't refute Qin Huairu's words.

She didn't dwell on the issue.

"Even if what you're saying is true, it's not a big problem."

Qin Huai thought to herself, "Isn't this a big problem?"

This is a huge problem.

How much was taken advantage of by Xu Damao?

In the future, Tang Yanling will also be taken advantage of.

It was difficult to tell Tang Yanling this directly; she could only hint at it so that Tang Yanling would understand on her own.

"Isn't this a big problem?"

Besides these, there was also his time as a projectionist.

Back then, the workers at the steel rolling mill were all whispering among themselves that Xu Damao had a mother-in-law in every village.

Don't you understand what this means?

Tang Yanling seemed thoughtful, feeling that there was an opportunity for her in this.

However, she hadn't yet figured out what kind of opportunity it would be.

"Mom, what you're saying was indeed a problem in the past."

But it is different now.

Social attitudes have changed.

If you're going to just say this much, then don't bother talking to me anymore.

It's not appropriate for you, as a mother-in-law, to discuss this with me, your daughter-in-law.

Anyway, from what you've said, I haven't found anything wrong with Uncle Xu.

Qin Huai's words were meant to subtly hint at Tang Yanling's intentions.

As a mother-in-law, she couldn't possibly tell her daughter-in-law, "Go and use your beauty to seduce other men."

She could only hint at Tang Yanling's character through Xu Damao's personality.

After saying what she wanted to say, Qin Huairu gave a few examples to prove that Xu Damao was a despicable person.

"Besides those, Xu Damao has done too many bad things, such as reporting on others behind their backs and flattering leaders. I could talk about them for three days and three nights without finishing."

His most infamous act was using a elaborate scheme of "one big, three small, two five, one ten" to curry favor with his superiors.

Tang Yanling had never heard of such a trick when it came to drinking.

Since Xu Damao likes it, if she learns it, wouldn't she be able to please him?

Tang Yanling asked with sparkling eyes, "What does 'one big and three small, two fives and ten' mean?"

Qin Huairu said with a disdainful tone, "The 'Big One' means the leader is the biggest."

If the leader drinks one cup, he has to drink three with him.

Tang Yanling said admiringly, "Uncle Xu has such a high alcohol tolerance?"

Qin Huai spat, "What's so great about him? His alcohol tolerance isn't even as good as mine."

He went to drink with the factory leaders, and before the hot dishes were even served, he blacked out.

Several times, he crawled directly under the table.

It was Sha Zhu who carried him home on his bicycle in the end.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yanling immediately felt it was pointless.

What she wanted to know was what Xu Damao liked, not his embarrassing moments.

Given Xu Damao's current status, how many people would dare to talk about those embarrassing things in front of him?

"Mom, stop talking nonsense. Just tell me what Uncle Xu likes."

When we ask someone for a favor, we should cater to their preferences; this way, we can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Qin Huairu said, "In his life, what he likes most is women, and the more beautiful a woman is, the more he likes her."

Yanling, I'm warning you. You're Banggeng's wife, you'd better have as little contact with him as possible.

Do you know what people in our department are saying about you behind your back?

Also, about the IUD, talk to Bang Geng about it when he gets back.

Qin Huairu gave Tang Yanling one last reminder. (End of Chapter)
