Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Argumentation erupted from the doorway; it was Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao. The two were arguing again about who should enter first.

Ever since Xu Damao became the leader of the workers' picket team, the two of them would argue about this whenever they came back together.

The people in the courtyard have gotten used to it.

In the end, Xu Damao cleverly gained the upper hand and entered the courtyard triumphantly.

Liu Haizhong could only stand there angrily, glaring fiercely at Xu Damao's back.

When Xu Damao passed by He Yuzhu's house, he smelled the aroma coming from inside, so he stopped his bicycle and went inside.

"Who cooked today? It smells so good."

He Yuzhu asked, "Why are you only getting back now?"

Xu Damao sat down with a smile: "Isn't this the song committee meeting? This is the food you made today, right? You've rarely cooked at home since graduating from Yushui."

He Yuzhu briefly explained Yan Bugui's situation: "Isn't this a cause for celebration?"

Xu Damao said with a smile, "We should be happy. Bring the wine, let's have a good drink."

He Yuzhu wanted to discuss something with him, so he agreed: "Go home and put your things down first, I'll go cook a dish."

Xu Damao glanced at himself and said, "Okay, I'll see what food I have at home and bring some over."

He Yuzhu went to the kitchen, fried a peanut, and then stir-fried a plate of eggs.

Xu Damao felt embarrassed to come empty-handed, so he brought a bottle of wine.

After the two had a couple of drinks, He Yuzhu revealed his purpose: "Tomorrow is my day off, so you'll act out a scene with me."

Xu Damao asked curiously, "What kind of play are you acting in?"

He Yuzhu said, "I'm planning to trick Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai. You'll have to cooperate with me."

Xu Damao said, "That's no problem. You haven't told us how you're going to scam them yet."

He Yuzhu said, "I've been followed by someone for the past two days. I suspect it's someone sent by Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong."

So I plan to test the waters tomorrow.

I'll be leaving at nine tomorrow morning. Your task is to stop me and ask where I'm going.

After listening to He Yuzhu's plan, Xu Damao said, "Do you think they'll fall for it?"

He Yuzhu shook his head: "I'm not too sure. But we should still give it a try."

Anyway, if they don't follow me, I'll be back soon.

Xu Damao thought it made sense and agreed. The two had things to do the next day, so they didn't drink much.

After he left, Lin Jinghan asked, "They haven't given up yet."

He Yuzhu said, "They won't give up. This time I'm going to teach them a lesson."

"You can visit the sanatorium tomorrow after I leave."

Lin Jinghan said, "That's the only way. Tell Li Huaide to get his bangs down as soon as possible."

No one can stand this kind of constant torment.

He Yuzhu smiled and agreed.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to turn on the washing machine.

After He Yuzhu got up, he deliberately bought meat buns and provoked Yan Bugui in the front yard, and then went to the middle yard to provoke Qin Huairu.

After the family finished eating, Xu Xiaoling came to his house. He Yuzhu told him to go back and tell Xu Damao.

Then he pushed his bicycle and prepared to go out.

Xu Damao happened to come out from the backyard: "Brother Zhu, where are you going? Let's have a drink together at noon."

He Yuzhu said, "Next time. I have something to do at noon today."

Xu Damao deliberately blocked He Yuzhu's way: "What could possibly happen to you?"

"I really have something to do. Don't take up my time."

"I won't let you leave until you tell me."

He Yuzhu feigned helplessness and said, "I'm going to Wangfujing to buy some things now. After I buy them, I'm going to see my father-in-law."

Xu Damao said, "Isn't it usually your sister-in-law who goes? Why are you going this time?"

He Yuzhu said, "I'm free today, aren't I? Let's have a drink together when I get back."

I went to Wangfujing to buy some things first.

Xu Damao let go of He Yuzhu's hand, and He Yuzhu pushed the bicycle away.

Before leaving, He Yuzhu glanced around and noticed that Yan Bugui, Qin Huairu, and Yi Zhonghai's eyes were gleaming with ill intent. Xu Damao shook his head and went to Li Dagen's house. He wanted to see if Yi Zhonghai would follow them.

Qin Huai jogged into Yi Zhonghai's house: "Uncle, did you hear that?"

Yi Zhonghai naturally heard this, and his eyes were filled with a calculating glint.

"Huai Ru, what are your thoughts?"

Qin Huairu whispered, "Shazhu has never told us about his father-in-law's situation. I think there must be something wrong with him."

I think you should tell your second uncle to go and follow Sha Zhu.

Yi Zhonghai had this in mind. He had recently arranged for someone to follow He Yuzhu.

It had no effect whatsoever.

He Yuzhu easily shook off those people and brought back delicious food every day.

Yi Zhonghai was very curious about He Yuzhu's secret. Today was very good news for him.

He immediately went to the backyard and told Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong agreed without hesitation: "Old Yi, I'll pack up, you go and borrow a bicycle from Old Yan. We'll go with you."

Yi Zhonghai didn't waste any time and got up to go to the front yard.

"Old Yan, can I borrow your bicycle?"

He knew that if he wanted Yan Bugui's bicycle, he would have to pay. So he came with five cents in his pocket.

Yan Bugui didn't take his five cents. Instead, he pulled him into the house and whispered, "Old Yi, tell me the truth, are you going to follow Sha Zhu?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't hide anything and said directly, "I've already talked to Lao Liu. You'd better hurry up, or you'll fall behind Sha Zhu."

Yan Bugui said, "I'll go too."

This was something he had thought about carefully.

In the courtyard, who was the most curious about He Yuzhu's situation?

It must be Yan Bugui.

He was particularly interested in knowing the identity of He Yuzhu's father-in-law so that he could use this secret to get He Yuzhu to treat him to a meal.

He had always suspected that He Yuzhu's father-in-law's identity was not simple.

Otherwise, why would an ordinary person travel all the way to Beijing for medical treatment and stay for so long?

Keep in mind, it's been almost a year already.

If you don't earn a single penny this year and still have to spend money on medical treatment, who can stand it?

Seeing that he was serious, Yi Zhonghai didn't refuse. He and Liu Haizhong followed He Yuzhu several times, but He Yuzhu managed to escape each time.

It's good to have one more person this time.

"Okay, get ready, I'll go outside and borrow a bicycle."

Liu Haizhong quickly came out pushing his bicycle, and when he learned that Yan Bugui wanted to come along, he did not refuse.

"You two must follow my instructions and not let Sha Zhu find out."

Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui rolled their eyes. The dumbest one here was Liu Haizhong, who actually tried to boss them around.

However, Liu Haizhong held the highest official position and was the best candidate to take the blame, so the two of them didn't argue with him.

Seeing the three of them leave together, Xu Damao couldn't sit still any longer.

He thought for a moment, then turned around and went home to get his bicycle. He decided to follow the three men and see how they made a fool of themselves.

Seeing this, Li Zhenjiang stopped him: "Where are you going?"

Xu Damao thought for a moment and did not tell Li Zhenjiang the truth.

The main problem is that Yu Li and Hao Min have been getting very close lately. I'm afraid that if I tell him about this, he'll tell Yu Li.

"I'm bored at home, so I'm going out for a walk. Do you want to come?"

Li Zhenjiang shook his head: "I won't go."

Xu Damao immediately pushed his bicycle out the door, leaving Li Zhenjiang stunned.

He hadn't even finished speaking.

Xu Damao was afraid that Li Zhenjiang would keep talking and delay his tracking.

Fortunately, there were many people on the street, so Yi Zhonghai and his two companions didn't walk very fast. (End of Chapter)
