Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

When Yi Zhonghai returned home, Qin Huairu followed him in.

"Grandpa, why are you only just getting back?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't hide anything and told Qin Huairu what had happened that day.

Qin Huai asked doubtfully, "Could it be that Sha Zhu found you?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head hesitantly: "It shouldn't be possible. The two of us were very careful in our tracking."

Besides, given Sha Zhu's temper, if he knew we were following him, he would definitely make a scene.

Qin Huairu thought it made sense and began to blame Yi Zhonghai and the other man for being useless.

The two of them combined couldn't even track down an idiot; they're utterly useless.

"If only we knew Sha Zhu's secret. We could use it to negotiate with him."

Yi Zhonghai said, "That's what I thought too, so I borrowed a bicycle from Lao Yan and plan to continue the tracking tomorrow."

I refuse to believe that he can escape when I follow him with Lao Liu."

Qin Huai felt a pang of heartache when he thought about having to pay to borrow Yan Bugui's bicycle.

But she knew that this money had to be spent.

"Uncle, you should get some rest. Conserve your energy so that Sha Zhu doesn't get away tomorrow."

Yi Zhonghai wanted to rest, but he was exhausted from riding his bike with Liu Haizhong on the back, and he was already starving.

"Huai Ru, is there any food at home?"

Qin Huai subconsciously replied, "There's no food at home."

Yi Zhonghai frowned: "Didn't you make my dinner?"

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was unhappy, Qin Huairu quickly explained, "I cooked for you. But Sha Zhu was eating beef at home just now, and Bang Geng was really craving it."

I had no choice but to give your food to Bang Geng.

Upon hearing this reason, Yi Zhonghai felt an intense hatred for He Yuzhu.

If it weren't for He Yuzhu, he wouldn't be starving.

"Huai Ru, make me some more. I'm exhausted today."

Qin Huairu had no choice but to go home and pretend to cook, since he dared not refuse.

Back in the backyard, Liu Haizhong came home and beat up the Liu Guangtian brothers.

Once he calmed down, he sat back down at the table to eat.

His treatment was better than Yi Zhonghai's; his second aunt specially saved food for him and even fried an egg for him.

"Why did it take you so long to get back?"

Liu Haizhong ate a steamed bun before speaking: "Don't even mention it. Today, I went with Lao Yi to follow Sha Zhu, and it exhausted me."

"That damn idiot Zhu, why did he have to run off to Fengtai?"

Auntie Er asked curiously, "Why are you following him?"

Liu Haizhong said, "It's all because Lao Yi said that Sha Zhu is acting strangely."

He said that when Sha Zhu got off work, there was no bag in his car, but when he got back to the courtyard house, there would be an extra bag in his car.

He suspected that Sha Zhu was up to no good, so he decided to follow him.

Aunt Er's heart skipped a beat: "Could Sha Zhu be a spy?"

Liu Haizhong wasn't stupid this time: "He's someone we've watched grow up since he was a child, how could he be a spy?"
Besides, what spy hires an idiot? Alright, enough rambling, get me a bowl of water.

The next day, He Yuzhu went to work and made a point of observing the situation. He noticed that Yi Zhonghai was riding Yan Bugui's bicycle, and he immediately felt relieved.

Yi Zhonghai riding a bicycle meant that the two men were not giving up and would continue to follow him.

Yan Bugui happily pocketed the 50 cents and hummed a song all the way to work.

There's nothing more exciting than earning 50 cents without leaving home.

"Teacher Ran, you're here so early."

Ran Qiuye was punished six months ago; her teaching qualification was revoked, and she was assigned to cleaning.

Yan Bugui, for some unknown reason, would occasionally secretly chat with Ran Qiuye.

Ran Qiuye was used to seeing Yan Bugui, so she gave a simple reply and continued cleaning.

As Yan Bugui watched her retreating figure, he suddenly thought of Miao Jianye.

Miao Jianye always kept Ran Qiuye in his thoughts.

If he were to introduce Miao Jianye to someone, Miao Jianye would definitely be grateful.

Then he thought again, if he introduced Miao Jianye to someone, Yi Zhonghai would hate him. Right now, Yi Zhonghai was following Liu Haizhong, swaggering around the steel rolling mill.

If they knew he had introduced a woman to Miao Jianye, they would definitely have dealt with him.

On the one hand, they can earn benefits by introducing potential partners, and on the other hand, they lose a lot of money if they don't introduce potential partners.

Yan Bugui thought about it absentmindedly all day, but still couldn't make up his mind.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong continued to secretly keep an eye on He Yuzhu.

Liu Lan, having been reminded by He Yuzhu, paid special attention to the two of them.

Finding that the two were still persistent, they went to the cafeteria staff.

The people in the cafeteria, behind He Yuzhu's back, devised a plan to teach them a lesson.

At lunchtime, they deliberately made a bunch of lunchboxes so that Liu Haizhong's men could see them.

Upon receiving the news, Liu Haizhong became excited: "Are you telling the truth? The cafeteria staff really did get meat from the kitchen."

"Team Leader Liu, it's absolutely true. We saw it clearly: the canteen staff took a whole bunch of lunchboxes and hid them in the small warehouse outside the canteen."

They said that everyone in the cafeteria gets a share.

Liu Haizhong said, "Then what are we waiting for? Take me to that warehouse."

Yi Zhonghai sensed something was wrong and said, "Old Liu, don't worry. There might be a trap."

"How come I've never seen them hiding things before?"

Liu Haizhong said, "Why do you care so much? Let's go check it out, and we'll know."

I'm now the leader of the workers' disciplinary team; all the workers in the factory are under my jurisdiction.

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and realized that they were right. There were so many of them, and they represented the steel rolling mill, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"I'm just afraid that Sha Zhu will become suspicious."

Liu Haizhong said, "You're just worrying unnecessarily. Do you think his family will stop eating meat in the future?"

After saying that, he led his men to the small warehouse.

Yi Zhonghai couldn't stop them, so he had no choice but to follow.

A group of people stormed into the small warehouse, and someone shouted "hooligan!"

Then, a group of women rushed in.

"Beat the hooligans."

Cracking and popping.

In the end, it was Xu Damao's workers' picket team that learned of the situation, rushed in, and rescued Liu Haizhong and the others.

Xu Damao asked in a feigned manner, "What happened?"

Aunt Qian from the canteen kitchen stepped forward: "Sister Zhang and I were resting in the small storage room when they barged in."

We thought it was some kind of indecent assault, so we shouted.

Liu Lan continued, "We were studying quotations together when we heard Aunt Qian calling, so we came over."

When we arrived, we saw them making inappropriate advances towards Aunt Qian and Aunt Zhang.

Liu Haizhong said angrily, "You're talking nonsense."

Xu Damao completely ignored Liu Haizhong's explanation and directly convicted them: "Team Leader Liu, Yi Zhonghai, you guys are something else. Aunt Qian and Aunt Zhang are older than you, how could you do that?"

Liu Haizhong was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to step forward: "Xu Damao, you're talking nonsense. We received a tip that someone was hiding things in the warehouse."

Aunt Zhang said, "Master Yi, don't slander people. There's nothing in the warehouse."

Yi Zhonghai retorted, "What are you doing here when you're all perfectly fine?"

Aunt Zhang was prepared and took out the Little Red Book: "We're both old and our memories aren't good."

We were afraid of being laughed at, so we secretly hid here to study.

Does the factory not allow training?

Seeing these people, each with a copy of the Little Red Book, Yi Zhonghai knew he had been tricked, but dared not say anything.

Xu Damao knew that things would get out of hand if this matter escalated, so he forced several people from Liuhai to apologize.

There's nothing I can do about my bangs.

The people in front of me were a group of women, their social class was fine, and their reasons were quite legitimate.

Furthermore, given Xu Damao's deliberate bias, he feared escalating the situation and angering Li Huaide, so he had no choice but to apologize. (End of Chapter)
