Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

"Wuwu...Mom, you had such a fight with someone this morning, how could I have the face to go to their house to pick up the meat, wuwu..." Qin Huairu cried and defended herself.

Under normal circumstances, Sha Zhu would have jumped out to defend his sister Qin, but today he was worried about not being able to find his father. He looked everywhere, even to Bai Guafu's house, but there was no one there. When he got home, he only saw a note on the table, but he was 80% illiterate and could not understand it at all. He was waiting for his sister to come home from school and give it to her.

"Are you going or not? If not, I will beat you to death right now! You slut, you just want to seduce men every day. If you dare to do anything to let down our Dongxu, I will tear you apart."

"Okay, Jia Zhang, stop cursing here and go home to eat. Then have a meeting. Your work is not over yet." Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand it anymore. After all, he had to take the reputation of the courtyard into consideration. Otherwise, the sign of Civilized Courtyard would be gone, and he, as a rich man, would lose face.

Although Li Dongfang wanted to defend Qin Huairu, he had no position to do so. He was thinking about holding a general meeting...

After a while, Qin Huairu was forced to come over by Jia Zhang. Looking at Qin Huairu, who still had traces of tears and another slap mark on her face, he couldn't help but feel depressed.

Qin Huairu saw Li Dongfang's distressed look and couldn't help but shed tears again, but she still said:

"Dongfang, can you lend me some meat? When my family has money..."

Li Dongfang raised his hand to interrupt her, turned around and took out a piece of bread from the cabinet and said:

"Don't say anything, just eat something first."

As he said this, he sprinkled some salt on the fried crispy crumbs and placed them in front of her.

"East......"

"Eat first, then talk after you finish."

Li Dongfang lit a cigarette and sat in front of Qin Huairu, watching her eat.

At this time, Qin Huairu no longer cared about the bread that she had never eaten before. She just stuffed it into her mouth with tears in her eyes.

Li Dongfang threw the cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it fiercely, then said to Qin Huairu:

"Sister Qin, let me be honest with you. The Jia family is a bunch of ungrateful people. They don't want anything from me. But for your own good, take some of this oil residue back with you. Come to my place for your meals from now on. Seeing you like this makes me...I feel uncomfortable."

Qin Huairu's tears flowed faster when she heard this, but she bit her lip and didn't make a sound. Li Dongfang took a deep breath and said:

"Sister Qin...I will take care of you from now on."

Qin Huairu could no longer hold back her tears after hearing this, and she sobbed softly, nodding and shaking her head, and no one knew what she meant.

Li Dongfang didn't say anything, he just smoked one cigarette after another. Although he was attracted by Qin Huairu's beauty, he felt really distressed when he saw Qin Huairu's pitiful appearance.

After crying for a while, Qin Huairu felt much better. She wiped her face, finished the bread in her hand, looked up and smiled at Li Dongfang:

"Dongfang, I'm fine. I'm almost used to it. Thank you. I won't stay."

As he was about to get up and go back, Li Dongfang held him back and poured half of the oil residue to her, "Take some back, or that old hag will beat you again."

Qin Huairu's tears, which she had managed to stop, were about to flow again. Li Dongfang reached out and wiped away her tears with his thumb, saying:

"Believe me, things will get better. Feel free to come to me if you have any difficulties."

This time Qin Huairu did not hide. Instead, she rubbed her face on Li Dongfang's thumb, then raised her head and took a deep breath and said:

"I'm fine, thank you."

After saying that, he took the bowl and went back. Li Dongfang sighed secretly, thinking about how to punish Jia Zhang at the whole courtyard meeting later.

Three old men were sitting at a table in the middle courtyard, each holding a large ceramic teacup in their hands.

Yi Zhonghai blew away the tea foam, took a sip, and said:

"The purpose of today's meeting is to discuss how Jia's sister-in-law was afraid that Li Dongfang might get into trouble after drinking too much, so she went to his house to check on him, but was misunderstood as stealing something. Everyone should have seen the details. Although a lot of things were found on Jia's sister-in-law, they were all taken when she was preparing to help Li Dongfang clean up the house."

"Uncle, if you say so, then don't say anything and report it to the police directly. I believe the police will investigate it thoroughly."

Li Dongfang stood up and said to Yi Zhonghai.

"Li Dongfang, what are you yelling about? If you have any opinions, wait until I finish speaking. Do you still respect us three uncles? Sit down first." Yi Zhonghai was determined to turn black into white no matter what.

"Uncle, if you say so, then I'll go to your house in the middle of the night and put your things on my body. You don't mind, do you?"

Li Dongfang ignored him and continued the conversation directly.

"That's right. We have found something, and we can still say that."

"Yes, Jia Zhang is not a clean person."

Immediately, people in the courtyard started to talk. Obviously, anyone with a discerning eye could see what was going on. This was the first time in all these years that Yi Zhonghai had blatantly confused right and wrong.
