The Courtyard House: Xu Damao's Aunt is the Queen of Women

As soon as Ye Juan said this, the onlookers burst into laughter.

Yan Fugui's face turned bright red, and he wished he could disappear into the ground.

"You... Ye Juan, you've gone too far... Liu Hao, what do you want to do?"

Yan Fugui caught a glimpse of Liu Hao putting on gloves out of the corner of his eye, and a chill ran down his spine; he had a bad feeling.

When Liu Hao slapped the deaf old lady in the face last time, he also wore gloves before he started slapping her.

"What do I want to do? Of course, I want to teach you how to be a person."

Liu Hao strode forward, bent down, picked up Yan Fugui, and began to beat him repeatedly.

A crisp and rhythmic slap rang out, and the onlookers stared wide-eyed, completely dumbfounded.

Accountant Liu's hand speed is really fast! He even left afterimages as he swung his hand. Poor Yan Fugui, even his glasses, which were missing a leg, were blown off by the slap.

Yang Ruihua, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang, Yu Li and the others were so frightened that they took two steps back, afraid that if they got too close, Liu Hao would grab them and slap them.

Ye Zhen was dumbfounded. Was her third brother-in-law really that ruthless?

He thought he was arrogant and domineering, but compared to his third sister and brother-in-law, he was actually quite gentle and refined.

Liu Haizhong, who had just returned from get off work, stood at the back of the crowd and saw his two sons with bruises and swelling on their faces. He immediately flew into a rage.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?"

Liu Haizhong's deliberately deep voice came through, and Liu Hao's hand did not stop. He continued to slap Yan Fugui, that old beast who was no less than Yi Zhonghai, the fool, the deaf old woman.

"Stop right there!"

With his hands behind his back, Liu Haizhong strode out of the crowd, his brows furrowed into a deep frown, his face displaying the dignified air of an elder.

He stopped three steps away from Liu Hao, cleared his throat, and deliberately lowered his voice to a deep, authoritative tone.

"Liu Hao! Let go of your third uncle! Don't you have any respect for hierarchy or seniority? Don't you know any of the rules of this courtyard?"

"You old codger, are you asking for a beating? It's none of your business, get lost."

Ye Juan glared at him, raised her long leg to kick him, and Liu Haizhong was so frightened that he stumbled backward.

Liu Haizhong's face darkened, and he shouted, "I'm the second oldest in the courtyard, so naturally I have to meddle in other people's business! Even if Yan Fugui has a thousand faults, it should be me, his second oldest, who judges him. Who gave you the right to lay a hand on him? This is disrespectful to elders and a disgrace to the family!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the residents in the courtyard, trying to garner their approval.

"Everyone, tell me, what kind of logic is this, resorting to violence at the drop of a hat? If word gets out, what will become of our courtyard's reputation? What will our neighbors think of us?"

No one paid attention to Liu Haizhong; instead, they thought Liu Hao did a good job.

The three old men in the courtyard had been suffering for a long time and had long disliked these three old beasts.

With the arrest and sentencing of Yi Zhonghai, the deaf old woman, Director Wang announced the complete abolition of the position of the steward of the No. 95 courtyard. The residents of the courtyard were all overjoyed and exclaimed that heaven had eyes!

Besides, although Liu Hao and Ye Juan are indeed a bit fierce, they only deal with the scoundrels like Yi, Yan, Liu, He, Jia, and Long who cause trouble and bully the good people in the yard. They are gentle and polite to the other neighbors.

So why should we listen to you, you idiot, and offend Liu Hao and Ye Juan?

A mouse licking up cat coins—is it looking for a thrill?

Liu Haizhong was furious. No one respected him as their second uncle. It was outrageous!

"Great! Excellent!"

He stamped his foot and shouted angrily, "You're all blind! You can't tell right from wrong! Liu Hao is blatantly lawless, and you're all tolerating him!"

Ye Juan said coldly, "Liu Haizhong, please find out what happened first. It was Yan Fugui who robbed us on the road..."

"What do you, a mere woman, know about manners!"

Liu Haizhong glared at Ye Juan, his face stern as he reprimanded, "Men have the right to speak here, you have no right to interrupt. Liu Hao, I order you to apologize to Yan Fugui right now and hand this matter over to me, your second uncle, or don't blame me for disowning you as a junior in this courtyard!"

"You son of a bitch, you think you're so great?"

Enraged, Ye Juan kicked Liu Haizhong in the stomach, sending him flying and crashing to the ground. He rolled twice, clutching his stomach and screaming like a pig being slaughtered.

The onlookers were dumbfounded. Ye Juan looked like a fairy, had a bad temper, and was incredibly strong. She must weigh at least 160 or 170 pounds, yet she managed to kick him away.

Ye Juan reached out and took a broom made of bamboo branches from a middle-aged woman next to her. She pulled out a thin bamboo strip, stepped forward, and swung it at Liu Haizhong.

Anyone who has been hit by a bamboo stick knows how painful it is.

Because it was the dead of winter and Liu Hai was wearing thick clothes, Ye Juan specifically targeted his ankles and wrists.

"Ah!!! Ye Juan, you're outrageous! I'm your second uncle! How dare you hit me!"

"Go to hell with your second uncle! My second uncle was a martyr! He died in the Nanchang Uprising. My third uncle was also a martyr, he died on the Long March. You two old beasts dare to call yourselves my second and third uncles?"

Ye Juan hit and cursed at the same time, causing Liu Haizhong to writhe in pain and scream.

The residents of No. 95 Courtyard were used to it, having witnessed Ye Juan's violent temper and knowing about her family background.

The onlookers in other courtyards were quite different. They stared in astonishment, realizing that Ye Juan's second and third uncles were actually veteran revolutionaries.

"Haha, you guys don't know, do you? Ye Juan's grandfather used to be the commander of the Baoding Military Sub-district, and her father is the deputy director of the Xicheng District Public Security Bureau! By the way, the one who accepted bribes to falsify the family background of Sha Zhu was the director of the Xicheng District Public Security Bureau. Accountant Liu's father-in-law has already been promoted to director."

"Wow... that powerful?"

"Wait a minute, isn't Ye Juan Xu Damao's aunt?"

"Ye Juan was adopted by the Ye family when she was just a month old. To be honest, she only became related to Xu Damao's mother, Zheng Sulan, last year."

"Tsk tsk, Xu Damao's found a powerful backer!"

"What a load of crap. Ye Juan and Liu Hao don't really pay any attention to Xu Damao. I guess the Xu family is trying to curry favor and has angered them."

"It looks painful! Has that good-for-nothing Liu Haizhong been kicked in the head by a donkey? How dare he put on airs in front of Ye Juan?"

Ye Juan became more and more skilled at hitting him, leaving red marks on Liu Haizhong's hands and ankles, causing Liu Haizhong to cry out in pain.

"Tell me, whose second uncle are you?"

"You...you...waaaah...you're my second uncle! You're my second uncle!"

Liu Haizhong is a typical bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. After being beaten, he immediately backed down.

Ye Juan took a few more puffs and asked in a sweet voice, "Where's Liu Hao?"

"Grandpa!! Grandpa! Liu Hao is my grandpa!! Second grandpa, please stop hitting me, I was wrong!! I really know I was wrong!"

Liu Haizhong cried and begged for mercy, refusing to kneel before Ye Juan; this was his last act of defiance.

Liu Hao, meanwhile, slapped Yan Fugui hard across the face, leaving the cunning man with a bruised and swollen face, before finally stopping.

Yang Ruihua and Yu Li hurriedly stepped forward and dragged the dazed Yan Fugui backward.

"This is your last warning, Yan Fugui. If you dare to rob me again, I'll report you to the school!"
