Living in a Siheyuan

The happiest person who was happy about Sha Zhu being locked up was Xu Damao.

He sat in Li Ping'an's car bed and excitedly told Li Ping'an how he had just kicked Sha Zhu, and even cursed Sha Zhu a few times.

Li Pingan was speechless after hearing this and said, "Brother Damao, I think you should think about how to face Wu Tingting when you go back. Wu Tingting was the one who even Sha Zhu beat her so hard that she couldn't fight back. How many hits can you take from her with your small body?"

Xu Damao suddenly stopped talking and the smile on his face disappeared.

He was indeed a little afraid of Wu Tingting; that woman was a tough character.

"Oh, how could I forget about this! Ping'an, you have to save your brother!" Xu Damao said with a sad face.

Li Pingan secretly laughed in his heart, but on the surface he comforted him: "Brother Damao, don't worry too much. Maybe Wu Tingting is in a good mood today and won't care about it."

After hearing this, Xu Damao felt a little more at ease.

However, when they returned to the courtyard, they found Wu Tingting standing at the door, waiting for them aggressively.

Wu Tingting came from such a far place with the refugees, and brought her sister with her. Could she be someone who is easy to mess with?

I didn't see that Shazhu was completely obedient after being disciplined.

Today, she heard that Sha Zhu was beaten up by everyone because he and Xu Damao were causing trouble at the door. He was also locked up in the security department. So she came to find Xu Damao to get things clear.

By the way, I'm also venting my anger for Sha Zhu.

When Xu Damao saw Wu Tingting, he was so scared that he immediately hid behind Li Pingan.

"Brother Damao, don't be afraid." Li Pingan said while pretending to be calm.

Wu Tingting glared at Xu Damao and roared, "Xu Damao, how dare you bully Sha Zhu!"

Xu Damao shrank his neck and stammered, "I...I didn't do that. He stole the rice from the factory himself."

"Humph, do you think I will believe your lies?" Wu Tingting pointed at Xu Damao's nose and cursed, "Just wait and see how I deal with you!"

As she said that, Wu Tingting raised her fist and was about to hit Xu Damao.

Li Pingan quickly stopped her and advised: "Wu Tingting, calm down and talk nicely."

"No, I must teach him a lesson today!" Wu Tingting refused to give in.

Just then, He Daqing came over and stopped Wu Tingting.

"Okay, Tingting, stop making trouble. We are all neighbors, we will see each other sooner or later."

Although Wu Tingting was unhappy, she couldn't lose face for He Daqing, so she had to give up.

He Daqing also asked Xu Damao: "Da Mao, what happened? How is Sha Zhu now?"

Xu Damao had no choice, because there was strength in numbers. There was also Wu Tingting, who was staring at him covetously, as if she was really going to hit him.

So he said, "Uncle He, it really has nothing to do with me. We just had a quarrel at the door. It was Shazhu who stole the rice that the factory just bought today, and the leader found out and locked him up in the security department."

Li Pingan also said, "Uncle He, you should think of a way to go see Brother Zhuzi and bring him some food. Director Yang said we will discuss the specific punishment at the meeting tomorrow."

He Daqing nodded, "I understand, thank you Ping An." He turned and walked out of the yard.

Seeing this, Xu Damao breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, I escaped a disaster."

But what he didn't expect was that Wu Tingting had no intention of letting him go.

"Xu Damao, don't be too happy too soon!" Wu Tingting glared at him fiercely, "This matter is not over yet!"

After saying that, she turned and left.

Li Pingan shook his head helplessly, "Brother Damao, you're on your own."

Xu Damao made a bitter face, "Alas, I should not have provoked her."

Such a big commotion also alarmed everyone in the courtyard. Everyone knew that Sha Zhu had stolen rice from the factory and was locked up by the security department.

There were also discussions. Some expressed regret, some gloated over the misfortune. Of course, most people just watched the fun.

Only Yan Bugui came over quietly and said, "Ping An, do you think this incident involving Sha Zhu is serious?"

Li Pingan looked at the old gossip and said, "How would I know? Let's see how the factory punishes me tomorrow."

An old man named Liu Haizhong also came over with a bulging belly and said, "Shazhu has it all his own way. I've known for a long time that there's something fishy about the lunch boxes he brings every time. He must have made a mistake this time."

Li Ping'an looked at these people speechlessly, they were all wise after the event.

He responded with a few words and left.

I have two little babies at home that I need to visit.

During the meal, Yu Li also asked about this.

Li Pingan was really impressed by this woman's gossiping heart. So he pushed Xu Damao out and asked him to explain to Yu Li and Lou Xiaoe.

So Xu Damao happily told how he had beaten Sha Zhu in the afternoon, how he had kicked Sha Zhu when he had the chance, and how badly Sha Zhu had been beaten. He also told how he had been locked up in the security department.

That's talking about being in high spirits and dancing with joy.

Let’s talk about He Daqing.

He went to the security department, but they wouldn't let him see her.

He had no choice but to go home and get some food for Sha Zhu and send it over. The security department didn't make things difficult for him after taking a pack of cigarettes from him.

After returning home, He Daqing couldn't stand Wu Tingting's crying anymore. He took a few bottles of good wine and a few packs of good cigarettes and went to Director Yang's house overnight.

I just don't know what they talked about. Anyway, when he came back in the middle of the night, he looked pretty good.

The next day, Li Pingan was notified to attend a meeting as soon as he got to work.

There weren't many people attending the meeting this time.

Just a few factory directors, section chiefs, and workshop directors.

Director Yang saw that everyone was present and said, "I think everyone knows what happened yesterday. Today we will discuss the punishment for He Yuzhu. Let Li Ping'an talk about what happened first. He was at the scene."

Li Pingan had no choice but to stand up and objectively recount what happened.

Director Yang waited for Li Pingan to finish speaking, then said, "This matter is very serious. As we all know, food is hard to come by now. Such behavior must be dealt with properly. Otherwise, our factory may not be able to keep its food supply in the future."

Everyone started talking about it.

Someone suggested sending Sha Zhu to the public security bureau for sentencing.

Someone suggested firing Sha Zhu.

Finally, Li Huaide said: "We must resolutely put an end to cases like He Yuzhu's in the future. We will deal with him seriously this time. But this matter is not serious enough to be sent to the Public Security Bureau."

Li Huaide was afraid that if he sent Shazhu to the higher-ups, they would have a hard time explaining where the rice came from. So he thought of disposing of it at the factory.

Director Yang nodded, "I agree with Huaide's opinion. However, the specific punishment measures need to be discussed further."

After some discussion, it was finally decided to keep He Yuzhu in the factory for observation, deduct three months' salary, and make him clean toilets for one month.

After the meeting, Director Yang asked Li Ping'an to tell He Daqing the results first.

Li Ping'an came to the canteen kitchen and told He Daqing the results of the meeting.

He Daqing also said gratefully: "Thank you Ping An, as long as you don't fire him or send him to the police station, it's fine. Three months' salary is not much. As for cleaning the toilet, he deserves it."

"I've told him so many times, if there are leftovers, take some, if not, forget it. Look at what this brat has done? We don't need that little food at home."

Li Pingan also said: "Uncle He, forget it. I guess Brother Zhuzi will know his mistake in the future. I hope he can learn his lesson this time."

He Daqing also nodded. He planned to teach Sha Zhu a lesson this time. If he couldn't do it, he would let Wu Tingting teach him a lesson.

Because of this matter, he went to Director Yang's house and Li Huaide's house last night. Otherwise, he wouldn't have handled it so lightly.

Soon, it was noon and the radio started to sound.

"Hello, hello, hello! Hello, fellow workers. Regarding the incident of Comrade He Yuzhu stealing rice from our canteen yesterday afternoon, the factory held a meeting to study it. In view of Comrade He Yuzhu's initiative to admit his mistakes and actively compensate the factory for the losses, it was decided that He Yuzhu would be kept in the factory for observation and fined three months' salary. He will be required to clean toilets for one month. I hope Comrade He Yuzhu can correct his mistakes in the future, study hard, and correct his thoughts."

This content was broadcast three times in the factory.

Now everyone was discussing it excitedly.

Some people say that the punishment is too light and he should be sent to jail.

Some people say that this punishment is fair, after all, three months of work is not a small amount of time. They also have to clean the toilets.

At noon, when it was time for lunch and rest, everyone started discussing together.

Xu Damao curled his lips when he heard the news. He felt that someone must have spoken well of Sha Zhu. Otherwise, the lightest punishment for Sha Zhu would be expulsion.

But it's worth it to see Shazhu sweeping the toilet.

Sha Zhu also learned about the execution in the security department. He also felt a little regretful, but more of it was hatred towards Xu Damao.

I was already secretly thinking about how to deal with Xu Damao when I got out.

In the afternoon, Sha Zhu was taken to the cleaning department. The leader knew that Sha Zhu was going to clean the toilet, so he took Sha Zhu to the tool room and let him get a broom. Then he took him to the toilet behind the workshop.

Sha Zhu is in charge of the three men's toilets on the east side of the factory. They have to be cleaned every day.

Today's toilets are all squat type, which are difficult to clean.

In addition, there are many people in the factory, and if Shazhu wants to clean these three toilets, he basically has no rest time.

In the afternoon, Xu Damao arrived.

He saw Sha Zhu cleaning the toilet and shouted, "Hey, isn't this our silly chef? How did he become a chef in the toilet? Who will eat his food from now on?"

Sha Zhu was already thinking about how to deal with Xu Damao. Now this grandson came to his door.

He instinctively grabbed the broom and prepared to hit Xu Damao.

Xu Damao was also shocked. He didn't expect that Sha Zhu would dare to hit him now.

So he jumped aside and said, "Shazhu, you are staying in the factory for observation. If you dare to hit someone, you will be fired immediately. Have you thought it through?"

After hearing this, Sha Zhu was a little worried that he would really be fired, so he put down the broom in his hand.

Seeing that Sha Zhu had given in, Xu Damao immediately shouted, "Sha Zhu, be careful next time. If you dare to mess with your grandfather Damao again, I will report you and have you fired from the factory."

Sha Zhu was so angry that his teeth itched and he cursed, "Get lost, you little bastard. I'll show you how I'll deal with you later."

Xu Damao knew that Sha Zhu was scared. He said proudly: "Grandpa, I'm going to the toilet, what's wrong? Do you want to control me when I go to the toilet?"

After saying that, he went into the bathroom.

He just deliberately poured water outside the urinal, making it all over the place.

When Sha Zhu saw this, he couldn't bear it anymore.

Just outside the toilet, across the wall, he hit Xu Damao several times with a broom.

This broom is used to clean the toilet, I don’t know how much dirt is on it.

Sha Zhu ran away after shaking his head. Xu Damao was so anxious that he couldn't even fasten his pants properly. When he came out, Sha Zhu had already run away.

Xu Damao was so angry that he jumped up and down and yelled, "Silly Zhu, you wait for me!!"
