Siheyuan: It’s so nice to be Lao Liu

Chapter 5: The Stick Stealer 2

Although Xu Damao appeared tough on the surface when facing the first uncle Yi Zhonghai, he was still weak inside. After hearing the first uncle's moral blackmail, he knew that he was alone and powerless, so he turned his gaze to the second uncle Liu Haizhong.

When the second uncle Liu Haizhong saw Xu Damao's pleading eyes, he immediately put on his official posture and said, "Let's deal with each matter one by one. First, Xu Damao's chicken was lost. Let's go and deal with his problem first. Qin Huairu, where is your child? Xu Damao said that he saw your child roasting a chicken outside the steel mill this afternoon."

Just when the second uncle Liu Haizhong began to ask Qin Huairu, Banggeng led his two sisters into the front yard.

Xu Damao was sharp-eyed and noticed the stick stem sneaking in at a glance. He didn't waste any words and walked over directly. Looking at the grease in Huaihua's little mouth and clothes and the smell of roasted chicken, Xu Damao felt relieved. This was evidence. Let's see what the Jia family will do.

Xu Damao squatted down, picked up Xiao Huaihua, and walked towards the three uncles.

"Three gentlemen, look at the grease on Xiao Huaihua's body and mouth, and the smell of roasted chicken on her body. Isn't the Jia family so poor that they can't even afford steamed bread? How can they buy chicken for three children?"

Xu Damao's words were well-reasoned, leaving the three uncles speechless. The first uncle Yi Zhonghai had a gloomy face, with hatred surging in his heart. He hated the Jia family for not living up to their expectations, and also hated Xu Damao for becoming a little strange, which was beyond the control of him, the first uncle.

Xu Damao laid the evidence clearly in front of everyone. For a moment, everyone fell silent and didn't know how to refute Xu Damao.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Xu Damao became unscrupulous and said to Qin Huairu: "I have both witnesses and evidence now. Qin Huairu, do you have anything else to quibble about?"

Qin Huairu did not answer Xu Damao's question. She walked quickly to Banggeng, hugged him, and slapped him on the butt with her hand, making Banggeng cry loudly.

Qin Huairu was crying as she beat him, mumbling, "You are a bad boy. You stole other people's things at such a young age. I will beat you to death!"

In He Yuzhu's eyes, Qin Huairu's aggrieved expression must have shown that she had suffered endless injustice!

He Yuzhu saw it all and felt pain in his heart, and he felt very sorry for his sister Qin.

Bang Geng who was beaten didn't realize his mistake. Seeing Sha Zhu standing beside him, he quickly shifted the blame and said, "Mom, I was wrong. Don't beat me. It was Sha Zhu who asked me to steal. If you want to blame someone, blame him!"

At this time, Jia Zhang, who was in the middle courtyard, vaguely heard her grandson's call and immediately got up and rushed to the front yard.

He Yuzhu, who was standing aside without doing anything wrong, was directly blamed by Banggeng. He Yuzhu was immediately unhappy and rolled up his sleeves as if he was going to hit Banggeng.

But this scene happened to be seen by Jia Zhang who had just entered the front yard. How could this be tolerated? You big fool actually wanted to hit my precious grandson.

Jia Zhang rushed directly towards He Yuzhu, cursing as she ran: "You damn fool, don't hit my grandson. You, the damned bastard, will not die a good death."

He Yuzhu was helpless and quickly hid behind the uncle Yi Zhonghai. Ever since his father He Daqing and the widow Bai ran away to Baoding, the uncle Yi Zhonghai had been brainwashing him and instilling in him the idea of ​​respecting and honoring the elderly. In He Yuzhu's subconscious mind, he should give in to Jia Zhangshi and respect her. It was his own fault that she, as an old lady, wanted to beat him.

Seeing that Jia Zhang was about to throw a tantrum again, the uncle Yi Zhonghai quickly scolded her: "Jia Zhang, don't be unreasonable. Your Bang Geng stole Xu Damao's chicken, and now Xu Damao is looking for Qin Huairu to settle the score!"

Although Yi Zhonghai, the eldest uncle, was scolding Jia Zhang, he was also sending a message to Jia Zhang, which was "Xu Damao is saying that your grandson stole the chicken, so you decide what to do!"

Jia Zhang immediately understood what Yi Zhonghai meant, and immediately turned her gun around, crying, "Old Jia, come up and take a look. Xu Damao, the damned one who bullied us orphans and widows, take him away!"

Seeing Jia Zhang's tantrum, the second uncle Liu Haizhong and the third uncle Yan Bugui became speechless. Jia Zhang's tantrum was quite unreasonable, and it was really difficult for ordinary people to deal with her.

But Yan Jiefang watched with great interest. He had thought Jia Zhang's performance was a bit exaggerated when he saw it on TV before, but he didn't expect that it would be like that in reality.

But after Yan Jiefang's "guidance", Xu Damao also figured out some things. No matter how much you explain it, I am the one who has the final say. Since you don't want to reason with me, then I won't talk to you either. I will go directly to the police.

Xu Damao turned around and walked out of the courtyard. The residents were also stunned and thought to themselves, "Xu Damao gave up after being summoned by Jia Zhangshi?"

Yan Jiefang was amused when he saw this scene. What a guy, Xu Damao is losing his moral principles.

It was He Yuzhu who reacted. Based on his understanding of Xu Damao, he would at least struggle for a while before being beaten into submission by me. Why was he so cowardly now?

"That's not right. Why is Xu Damao a little abnormal? Is he planning something bad?" He Yuzhu said in a low voice.

Seeing Xu Damao about to leave the yard, He Yuzhu shouted loudly: "Xu Damao, where are you going?"

"Call the police." Xu Damao said coldly without even turning his head.

The three words "report to the police" were extremely lethal, and they immediately raised the hearts of the residents who were watching the excitement in the yard. They were an excellent and civilized courtyard, and all problems were resolved in the courtyard. If Xu Damao reported to the police, that would be disastrous. How could they be selected for the title of excellent and civilized courtyard? Wouldn't the rewards they had won disappear without a trace?

For Uncle Yi Zhonghai, this was a bolt from the blue. If the police came to their courtyard to investigate, they would find out that this seemingly righteous uncle had done a lot of immoral things over the years.

"Xu Damao, come back. I will ask the Jia family to apologize to you." Yi Zhonghai, the eldest uncle, said to He Yuzhu and Yan Jiefang, "Silly Zhu, Jiefang, you two should quickly bring Xu Damao back. If there is any problem, we can solve it in our courtyard."

When Xu Damao heard what Yi Zhonghai said, he knew that he had compromised. He laughed in his heart and thought, "Yan Jiefang is really smart. He sees everything in the hospital clearly. How could I be so stupid? If I could see it clearly, how much money would Sha Zhu have to pay me!"

Xu Damao slowed down his pace and was soon caught up by He Yuzhu. Yan Jiefang was just following behind He Yuzhu for show and he had no intention of putting in any effort.

After being dragged back to the courtyard, Xu Damao said, "Uncle, compensate me 20 yuan and let this go. If it's one cent less, I'll call the police. It's up to you!"

Xu Damao looks tough and doesn't give you any chance to bargain.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai was also helpless. He looked at Qin Huairu and said, "Huairu, if you don't want Banggeng to go to the juvenile detention center, give Xu Damao twenty yuan!"

When Qin Huairu heard that she had to pay 20 yuan, her tears immediately flowed down again. She cried softly and said aggrievedly: "Uncle, you know that my monthly salary is 27.5 yuan, and I have to give my mother-in-law 3 yuan of pension every month, and I also have to buy medicine for her. 27.5 yuan is not enough for my family's expenses, how can I have 20 yuan!"

Looking at Qin Huairu's pitiful appearance with tears in her eyes, if Yan Jiefang had not watched the TV series "Love in the Courtyard" before, he would have been tempted to help Qin Huairu pay back the twenty yuan. After all, the young widow's appearance was too attractive.

Although Qin Huairu's performance did not impress Yan Jiefang, He Yuzhu, the victim, was deeply involved in it. He Yuzhu quickly stepped forward, stood in front of Qin Huairu, and said to Xu Damao: "Silly man, I will pay for Sister Qin's twenty yuan."

When Xu Damao heard He Yuzhu say that he would compensate the Jia family, he extended his hand.

"What?" He Yuzhu asked in surprise when he saw Xu Damao stretching out his hand in front of him before he could react.

"What? Give me money!"

Xu Damao didn't look at He Yuzhu well and said angrily.

He Yuzhu was suddenly put in an awkward situation. He was only thinking about showing off in front of Qin Huairu, but he forgot that all his money had been taken away by Qin Huairu.

Xu Damao saw He Yuzhu's expression change from surprise to embarrassment, and guessed that He Yuzhu must be out of money, so he deliberately mocked him: "Silly Zhu, you are not out of money, are you deliberately trying to show off?"

Hearing Xu Damao's ridicule, He Yuzhu, who was originally embarrassed, became gloomy, which also aroused Xu Damao's interest.

"Shazhu, as the chef of the steel rolling mill, you get a salary of 34.5 yuan a month. You eat at the factory and have no expenses. Yet you can't even come up with 20 yuan. Where did your money go? Did you support the widow Qin's family? My goodness, the Jia family only gets a salary of 65 yuan a month, and they still need donations from all of us?" Xu Damao said.

As soon as Xu Damao finished speaking, it immediately aroused discussion among the people around him. When He Yuzhu helped the Jia family, the residents were talking about it behind their backs. But now Xu Damao directly exposed the things that were happening behind their backs, which completely ignited He Yuzhu's anger.

"Xu Damao, I'm going to fuck your grandma."

He Yuzhu's face was full of anger, and he was about to rush towards Xu Damao with his fists waved.

Seeing He Yuzhu's angry look, Xu Damao, who was originally quite confident, immediately became timid and quickly ran behind the three uncles to hide.

The three uncles naturally couldn't treat He Yuzhu as a human being and hit people casually. The first uncle Yi Zhonghai shouted, "Okay, you two stop making trouble. He Yuzhu, give the money to Xu Damao, and let this matter pass.

Xu Damao, don't go out and talk nonsense. The Jia family is in trouble, and He Yuzhu is also trying to unite the neighbors and help the Jia family."

After Uncle Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, He Yuzhu said to Uncle Yi Zhonghai in a shy tone, "Uncle, lend me twenty yuan first, and I will pay you back when I get my salary."

Uncle Yi Zhonghai was almost fainted by He Yuzhu's anger, but Xu Damao's prediction came true. He Yuzhu gave all his money to the Jia family.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai thought about it, sighed, took out twenty yuan from his pocket and handed it to He Yuzhu, then shook his head helplessly.

He Yuzhu took the money from the old man Yi Zhonghai with a smile on his face, without noticing the helplessness on his face at all, and proudly threw the money to Xu Damao, as if he was giving alms.

Xu Damao didn't mind He Yuzhu's expression. After all, he exchanged an old hen for twenty yuan, so he could be said to have made a great bargain.
