Siheyuan: Game of Red Dust

Chapter 107 Stealing the chicken, idiot?
Li Weidong ignored him and planned to go to the steel mill first to see what was going on. He would then go to the courtyard to see if he could absorb some essence.

Li Weidong did not go to see the factory manager. He went straight to the workshop and asked a few familiar people. After confirming that the machine had been repaired, Li Weidong prepared to go back.

After leaving the steel mill, Li Weidong saw He Yuzhu standing next to the cement pipe with a lunch box. He Yuzhu was chatting with the thief who was playing PUBG!

Li Weidong drove over, got out of the car next to He Yuzhu, and said to He Yuzhu:
"He Yuzhu, what are you doing here?"

Li Weidong said this and looked behind He Yuzhu.

"Wow! Whose child is this? He even ate chicken?" Li Weidong said, pretending not to know him.

"Hi! The awesome guy from Qinhuai Rujia, he's eating here with his two sisters." Although He Yuzhu was puzzled as to why Li Weidong wanted to talk to him, he was carefree and didn't think much about it.

"The Qinhuai Ru family? The Jia family? Can they buy chickens? This chicken was stolen, right? A child this old is stealing chickens and dogs, how can this be tolerated? We need to ask the police to educate him, otherwise the child will grow up astray." Li Weidong said as he walked towards the car.

"Oh! Oh! Weidong, it's not that serious, it's not that serious. The child is just ignorant and greedy. I'll go back and see whose house it was lost in, compensate them and apologize, and that's all." He Yuzhu hurriedly grabbed Li Weidong and said to Li Lidong.

Li Weidong looked at He Yuzhu with a half-smile and said to him, "He Yuzhu, are you planning to help Qin Huairu?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I was just helping a neighbor in need." He Yuzhu said with a blushing face.

"Whether it is true or not, you know it in your heart, but let me tell you, Qin Huairu is not a good person." Li Weidong said to He Yuzhu with a smile.

"Weidong, I admit that what the Jia family did to your family was wrong, but the Jia family is the Jia family, and Sister Qin is Sister Qin. You can't have any opinions about Sister Qin just because of what Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu did to you. Sister Qin is a good person!" He Yuzhu said excitedly.

Li Weidong patted He Yuzhu's shoulder and took the opportunity to collect some of the world's origin. He said to He Yuzhu, "Don't get excited, don't get excited. I'm just talking about the facts. If Qin Huairu was really a good person, she wouldn't have pestered you. You all know that a widow's door is full of gossip and people's words are scary. Others call you Shazhu, but you can't treat yourself as a fool. Be careful."

Li Weidong said that without paying any attention. He Yuzhu, who was stunned on the spot, turned around, got into the car and left.

He Yuzhu stood there in a daze for a moment, watching Li Weidong's car gradually drive away. A complex look gradually appeared in his eyes, and then he walked towards the courtyard.

He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard and saw Qin Huairu washing clothes as soon as he entered the middle courtyard. He stood there and looked at Qin Huairu with complicated eyes for a while.

Knowing that Qin Huairu had discovered him, he walked up to her and asked:
"Zhu Zi, what's wrong?"

He Yuzhu finally came to his senses and saw Qin Huairu, who was smiling like a flower. He suppressed his chaotic thoughts and said to her, "I don't know where your Banggeng got a chicken from, but he roasted it in front of the steel mill. Li Weidong happened to see it when he came to the steel mill. He was about to ask the police to teach Banggen a lesson, but I stopped him. You can find out whose family lost the chicken. You can compensate them and apologize."

Qin Huairu looked anxious after hearing what He Yuzhu said. She grabbed He Yuzhu's hand and said, "Will Li Weidong report this to the police? Will Banggeng be okay?"

He Yuzhu felt the soft touch in his hand and unconsciously stroked it twice before saying to Qin Huairu:
"Probably not. I stopped him."

Qin Huairu felt He Yuzhu's touch on her hand. Looking at He Yuzhu's old face, a hint of disgust flashed across her eyes, which disappeared in an instant. Then she smiled and said to He Yuzhu:

"Thank you, Zhuzi. By the way, where are they? I'll go get them. They've been causing me trouble every day." There was no mention of compensation or apology.

He Yuzhu said, "It's right at the entrance of our factory, by the cement pipe. Hurry up and go, they probably haven't finished eating yet." Qin Huairu opened He Yuzhu's hand immediately after hearing what He Yuzhu said, and was about to go to the steel mill. However, she caught a glimpse of He Yuzhu's lunch box out of the corner of her eye, and habitually reached out to take it from him. When she was about to touch it, He Yuzhu stretched out his hand and pulled it away, and the lunch box left Qin Huairu's hand.

"Why? I can't give you today's lunch box. Today is Yu Shui's birthday, so I brought it back specially for her. Besides, isn't Bang Geng in your family eating chicken?" He Yuzhu said.

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at him, then turned around and went to look for Banggeng with her big butt twisted.

"Hey, this widow." He Yuzhu looked at Qin Huairu's receding figure, said "Hey", and prepared to turn around and go back to the house.

Turning around and about to go back to the house, he saw Jia Zhang sitting in front of his house, staring at him intently and mumbling to himself. No need to ask, it was definitely not good.

He Yuzhu didn't go forward to get scolded, but walked straight towards his home.

……

Li Weidong returned to the research institute from the steel rolling mill and got off work. He went home to have a meal first, and then hurried to the courtyard house No. 95.

"Brother Dong, where are you going? You look so anxious." Zhou Xiaolin asked.

The other women also looked at him curiously.

"I'm going to Yard No. 95 and will be back soon." Li Weidong said and ran away.

When Li Weidong arrived at Courtyard No. 95, a general meeting of the entire courtyard was just beginning.

Li Weidong walked over to Lou Xiao'e, who was watching the fun from the back, patted her on the butt, and asked, "What happened?"

The moment Lou Xiao'e was attacked from behind, she was about to punch the person behind her, but when she heard Li Weidong's voice, she relaxed her body, turned her head and gave Li Weidong a look, saying, "Brother Dong, you scared me. Was the chicken stolen from Xu Damao's house? It happened that Sha Zhu was stewing the chicken, and Xu Damao suspected that Sha Zhu stole it, so he called a general meeting.

You're late, it's over. Sha Zhu paid Xu Damao five dollars and was ready to leave.

As soon as Lou Xiao'e finished speaking, the people who were gathered around her dispersed. Those who saw Li Weidong greeted him, and Li Weidong responded one by one.

He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu also saw Li Weidong. Seeing that Li Weidong was talking to Lou Xiaoe, they did not go forward.

Li Weidong hurried but still arrived late. He chatted with Lou Xiaoe for a few more words and told her that he would come to see her in the evening and asked her to keep the door closed at night. Then Li Weidong left.

As soon as Li Weidong walked out of the door of No. 95 Courtyard, Qin Huairu caught up with him.

"Weidong, wait a minute."

When Li Weidong saw that it was Qin Huairu, he stopped and waited to see what Qin Huairu would say.
