Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he immediately felt relieved. That's it, Xu Damao just needs to pay some money, and the problem will be solved perfectly. The reputation of the compound will also be saved. It's a win-win situation!

"This is a crime of hooliganism, uncle. Are you sure this is the right way to solve it? I think we should report it to the police." Li Dongfang interrupted lazily.

When they heard what Li Dongfang said, four or five people who were sitting stood up and ran out without saying a word.

Widow Liu was stunned. What was going on? Did I say something wrong? Why did these people run away?

Li Dongfang was speechless. This has become a conditioned reflex. I haven't even started using my money ability yet and they are already rushing to run errands. It seems that people in the hospital have adapted to my style of doing things. Not bad.

The three old men looked at each other in bewilderment when they saw this scene, and before they could even stop four or five young men from running away.

As soon as they saw someone went to report to the police, Widow Liu and Xu Damao on the scene were immediately panicked. Xu Damao was speechless now, and Widow Liu had just been questioned by the police when she got off work. Now she had to deal with the police again. Not to mention others, even the comrades in the police force would look at her. Her reputation was probably in tatters.

Xu Damao didn't care about Sha Zhu beating him anymore. He pulled Sha Zhu and Li Dongfang straight into the house and slammed the door shut. The people in the yard knew what was going on and it was obvious that they wanted to negotiate privately to resolve the problem.

As for why he didn't bring Widow Liu along, any discerning person could see clearly that Widow Li was not important at all. The root cause lay with Li Dongfang and Sha Zhu. As long as they didn't insist that they saw Xu Damao acting like a hooligan, they couldn't directly convict him even if the police came.

"Zhu Zi, I know I was wrong. What do you want me to do to let me go? Is it okay if I pay you money?" Xu Damao, a bachelor, admitted his mistake directly.

Sha Zhu tilted his mouth and said, "If I had known this would happen, why didn't I do it in the first place? Why didn't you think of letting me go when you falsely accused me?!"

Xu Damao watched Sha Zhu posing as a winner, and he was filled with hatred, but the situation was stronger than him, so he continued to admit his weakness and said, "Brothers, just let me go. I will explain to the police right away that Zhu is definitely not a person who has affairs with men and women. Is that okay with you?"

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu looked at Li Dongfang. Li Dongfang glanced at him and said, "You decide for yourself. Why are you looking at me?"

Sha Zhu thought for a moment and said, "How are you going to explain the scar on your face later?"

When Xu Damao heard that Sha Zhu was going to let him go, he quickly said, "I fell down. I fell down by myself."

"Bullshit, so many people saw me hitting you, there must be a reason." Sha Zhu said with his arms crossed.

"Well...I'm competing with you in boxing, but I'm not as skilled as you..." Xu Damao said hesitantly.

When Sha Zhu heard this, he slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, I misunderstood you as a hooligan. You wanted to beat me up under the pretext of a competition, but you ended up not being as skilled as me. That's it!"

Li Dongfang covered his face when he heard this. This is so obvious self-deception. Do you think the police are all vegetarians?

But after thinking about it, it doesn't matter. As long as there is an excuse, Xu Damao will not pursue the matter of Sha Zhu beating him, and the police will not keep pursuing him. After all, fighting is not uncommon.

"Okay, then it's settled." Xu Damao quickly settled the matter with words.

Sha Zhu thought for a moment and said, "That's what I said, but you still have to pay me. After all, it has affected my reputation. You should pay me fifty...fifty dollars!"

"Ah? Fifty? I really don't have that much. I compensated the Jia family so much two days ago, how can I have it left?" Xu Damao immediately cried poor. The money he had was not enough to get married, and if he had to compensate Sha Zhu fifty more, he would not be able to get married.

"I don't care, it has to be fifty." Sha Zhu looked as if it had nothing to do with him.

Xu Damao hesitated for a long time before he took out the money from his pocket and counted it. It was a total of twenty-one dollars and fifty cents. He said pitifully to Sha Zhu, "This is all I have."

Sha Zhu grabbed it and said, "Okay, okay, I won't make it difficult for you, let's just leave it like this."

This was considered as an agreement. Xu Damao then looked at the money in Sha Zhu's hand with heartache and opened the door to go out.

As soon as the door was opened, Widow Liu was seen standing at the door. From the look on her face, it was obvious that she was eavesdropping.

Let Xu Damao pass, and Widow Liu looked at the money in Sha Zhu's hand with sparkling eyes. She put on a smiling face and walked up to Sha Zhu, nudged him with her shoulder and said, "Zhuzi, you see... I'm not greedy, I just want seven yuan, and I don't need to share the fifty cents."

Sha Zhu looked at Widow Liu with a flattering smile on his face. Li Dongfang snatched the money from his hand with a look of dismay, took out the 1.5 yuan from it, handed it to Widow Liu and said, "You think too much. Was it not hard for Sha Zhu to beat people? This 1.5 yuan is for you, as it is your hard-earned money."

Widow Liu's face froze, and she stammered, "Deputy Director Li, this is not a good thing. If I hadn't helped you identify the person, it would have been difficult to handle Zhuzi's beating."

Li Dongfang raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, you want to settle it? Fine, borrow Zhuzi's meal money first."

"Ah? This... I..." Widow Liu was immediately crushed. She looked at the 1.5 yuan in her hand and said aggrievedly: "He gave it to me on his own initiative..."

"Huh?" Li Dongfang glared.

Widow Liu quickly changed her words and said, "One dollar and fifty cents is one dollar and fifty cents. It's better than nothing." Then she quickly put the money in her pocket.

"Well, since you've received the money, you know what to say. If you say the wrong thing, the consequences will be serious." Li Dongfang threatened.

At this time, the police also came over. Seeing so many people in the yard, they frowned and asked, "Come here, everyone else, go away, don't gather here anymore."

The police's tough style these days is still quite intimidating to ordinary people. After hearing what he said, the people in the yard immediately dispersed and stood far away to watch the excitement.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Xu Damao quickly stepped forward, took out a cigarette and said, "Comrade, come and have a cigarette first."

"No!" The police are still very principled.

Xu Damao put the cigarette back in a coy manner and said, "Comrade, this is what happened..."

"Hiss~~ So you are just joking? Then why report to the police?" After hearing what Xu Damao said, the police comrades immediately looked at him with a bad face, thinking, what's the point of playing with them?

"It's a misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding." Xu Damao quickly apologized.

"That female comrade... why is it you?!" The policeman's face suddenly turned dark when he saw Widow Liu standing nearby.

Widow Liu was also helpless. This was the man who had just gone to her house to ask about Sha Zhu's affair with her. She didn't expect to see him again when she turned around.

"Yes...it's me, comrade." Widow Liu's pretty face was twisted at this moment.
