Courtyard House: He Daqing Forces Qin Huairu into Marrying at the Beginning

Xu Fugui sternly warned him.

"The job in the factory is one that I worked very hard to get for you."

Once you join the company, I will have to leave the steel rolling mill.

Leave the courtyard house with your mother and find a way to make a living elsewhere.

When that time comes, you'll be all alone in the yard, with no one to help you. Won't you be bullied to death?

Hold on tight to Yi Zhonghai, this great tree.

Although he was a good-for-nothing, he was an excellent fitter.

"Once you learn even a fraction of it, you won't have to worry about making a living anymore."

After the public-private partnership, the status of the steel rolling mill rose steadily.

Getting into the factory has become even more difficult.

If it weren't for Xu Damao's good education and his father's paving the way, he wouldn't have been able to get in at all.

"Dad, can't I work in the propaganda department?"

Working in the workshop is so tiring, why not go show a movie?

You know how good I am at projecting movies.

It would be a waste of talent for someone not to do this.

Xu Damao couldn't help but complain.

He studies so hard because he wants to find an easy job.

The kind of work done by steel mill workers clearly did not meet his expectations.

"Hi."

Xu Fugui sighed deeply and slowly spoke.

"If I hadn't been removed from my position as projectionist, I would definitely have been able to get you into the propaganda department."

But now, Dad really can't do anything about it.

"You should work hard at the factory for a few years first, and then we'll think of other ways later when the opportunity arises."

Xu Fugui was the one who cleaned the toilets at the factory.

The best that could be achieved was to advance the position to forging and then pass it on to his son.

After expressing their feelings, both father and son fell silent.

A moment later, Xu Fugui broke the silence.

"Let's go, take the gifts, and go visit He Daqing."

You'll be living in the courtyard from now on, so you can't afford to argue with him.

Otherwise, there will be absolutely no peace.

The person who was truly in charge of the courtyard was He Daqing.

Before Xu Fugui leaves, he must resolve the feud between the two families to prevent future troubles.

"Dad, our family and the He family have fallen out like that."

Would begging for mercy really do any good?

Xu Damao was young and impetuous, and unwilling to bow down to others.

Over the years, he has been repeatedly beaten to the ground by He Yuzhu. He has begged for mercy, but he has never stopped fighting.

He Daqing is not a stingy person.

He hasn't deliberately caused trouble for our family all this time.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The past is the past.

It's time to settle all the scores and grudges.

Xu Fugui is a petty person, but his greatest strength is that he knows how to be pragmatic.

If you can't beat He Daqing, just admit defeat and surrender.

I will never stubbornly endure being stabbed.

……

In the courtyard, He Daqing was about to start cooking when the Xu family father and son came to visit.

"Uncle, my son Damao is moving back to the courtyard starting today."

Our home is cramped, so my husband and I are planning to move out to make room.

"I'll be relying on you to take good care of Da Mao from now on."

Xu Fugui got straight to the point and explained his purpose.

"We were both confused about what happened before."

I apologize for any offense I may have caused, and I ask for your understanding.

Xu Fugui gestured to his son to present the gift.

Xu Damao reluctantly carried the bags and handed them to He Daqing.

"No reward without merit, so please waive the gifts."

We're all neighbors in the same courtyard, so we should all get along harmoniously.

What's past is past.

Let's not talk about it.

Xu Fugui was moving out, so He Daqing didn't want to argue with him.

As long as Xu Damao doesn't cause trouble, he won't make things difficult for him.

He Daqing had a grudge against Xu Fugui and his wife, but had nothing to do with Xu Damao.

He Daqing made a very clear distinction in this regard.

"This old man is very generous."

After I left, the spot where the third uncle sat in the courtyard became empty.

I would like to recommend Yi Zhonghai as the third uncle.

I wonder what you think.

Arranging a replacement for the third uncle was the last thing Xu Fugui could do for his son.

He Daqing is easygoing and doesn't hold grudges, but Liu Haizhong is a different story.

Given the chance, they'll definitely make trouble for Xu Damao.

Xu Fugui's act of helping Yi Zhonghai and showing goodwill towards him was paving the way for his son.

Ask Yi Zhonghai to help Xu Damao more in the factory and yard.

Chapter 115 Jia Dongxu

"The head of the household has to be chosen by all the neighbors in the courtyard; my opinion doesn't count."

It's getting late, I should start cooking.

You should go back.

He Daqing neither accepted the gift nor agreed to Xu Fugui's request.

In the current situation, whoever comes to power will not have a significant impact on He Daqing.

As long as the conflict between Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong remains unresolved, they will continue their feud.

The two will exhaust most of their energy in the fight and won't have time to cause trouble for He Daqing.

He Daqing has no need to get involved in this mess.

By remaining on the sidelines and sitting back, you'll win.

Unable to deliver the gifts, Xu Fugui and his son had no choice but to leave dejectedly.

Fortunately, He Daqing did not intend to make things difficult for the younger generation.

This trip wasn't entirely fruitless.

……

The next day, Xu Fugui and his wife began to move out of the courtyard house as planned, making room for their son to live in.

Xu Damao is not young anymore; in another two or three years, he will also be at the age to get married.

If you don't even have a house, it's hard to find a wife.

For the sake of their children's future, they have no choice but to compromise themselves.

On the same day, Xu Damao joined the steel rolling mill and worked as a fitter in the same workshop as Yi Zhonghai.

Xu Damao was quick-witted; he inwardly despised Yi Zhonghai, but outwardly he put on a respectful expression.

He offered cigarettes while saying nice things, trying his best to please Yi Zhonghai, hoping to become his apprentice.

Having been around for many years, Yi Zhonghai was well aware of Xu Damao's intentions.

With Jia Dongxu's failure as a precedent, Yi Zhonghai dared not easily accept disciples.

He only taught Xu Damao some routine skills, keeping his real expertise tightly under his control and refusing to share it.

When Xu Damao first arrived at the steel rolling mill, he was unfamiliar with the place and had no connections, so he dared not rebel against Yi Zhonghai.

The two, who were only superficially compatible, made do with each other at the factory.

With Xu Fugui gone, the position of the Third Uncle became vacant, and Liu Haizhong was the happiest person in the courtyard.
