Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Wang Shufen was returning home from shopping when she saw Liu Haizhong and his two sons being taken away by the police. She immediately panicked and said anxiously:

"Comrade Public Security, why did you take my husband and son away? They are both good people!"

Fu Xinhan said calmly, "Liu Haizhong and his two sons broke into a private residence and seriously injured someone. We are taking them back for investigation."

Wang Shufen blurted out, "Impossible! My husband and son are both law-abiding citizens and would never commit a crime."

Fu Xinhan said coldly, "Are you saying that our police are wrongly accusing innocent people?"

Wang Shufen's face froze, and she immediately said, "That's not what I meant. I meant there must be a misunderstanding."

Fu Xinhan said in a deep voice: "There is no misunderstanding. Everyone in the hospital saw what Liu Haizhong and his three sons did. If you don't believe it, you can ask them."

Wang Shufen paused and continued, "Even if what you said is true, it was the Yan family who made the mistake first. My husband and son are both members of the patrol team. They would not break into the Yan family for no reason."

Liu Haizhong said impatiently, "Wang Shufen, stop talking. Go to the steel mill and find Director Li immediately and tell him about my situation."

Fu Xinhan said with a look of surprise: "Liu Haizhong, as long as you have committed a crime, it's useless to look for anyone else. Get out of here!"

Liu Haizhong glanced at Fu Xinhan with contempt and walked into the yard.

When Wang Shufen saw Liu Haizhong, his father and his son being taken away, she hurriedly asked what had happened.

Sun Jinfeng said sarcastically, "Didn't Director Fu say it all? Your man brought a group of people and barged into Yan Bugui's house without any reason. Without a word, they rummaged through everything. Not only did they find nothing, but they also beat Yang Ruihua so badly that he had to be hospitalized."

Wang Shufen shouted, "Impossible! My husband is not crazy. He wouldn't search Yan Bugui's house without knowing the truth, and he wouldn't beat Yang Ruihua for no reason."

Yang Cuihua scoffed coldly, "How is that impossible? Ever since your man became the captain of the patrol team, he's been tyrannical and lawless, raiding homes and arresting people at random. Countless people have been persecuted by your man, and it has long aroused public outrage."

Wang Shufen said angrily, "You're talking nonsense. My husband is the captain of the patrol team. Arresting people and ransacking homes is his job. And he doesn't do it randomly. He arrests people based on evidence. He arrests those who are anti-revolutionary, saboteurs, and rightists."

"Since my husband brought people to search Yan Bugui's home, it must be that Yan Bugui or his family has committed a crime."

Sun Jinfeng said disdainfully, "Wang Shufen, don't make your man sound so great. Everyone knows that your Liu family and the Yan family have a feud. Liu Haizhong led people to search Yan Bugui's house. It's clearly a personal vendetta."

Wang Shufen was speechless after being rebuked. After a while, she stammered:

"Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

Yang Cuihua said firmly, "Nothing is impossible. Liu Haizhong slandered Yan Bugui for possessing banned books and led his men to search the Yan family's house, but found nothing. This is clearly an attempt to use his position to settle a personal grudge."

Wang Shufen was furious and said, "Sun Jinfeng, Yang Cuihua, you two bitches, you used to try to please me in every way, but now that my man has been arrested, you're kicking him when he's down. You're both two-faced and sinister villains."

"Snapped!"

The hot-tempered Sun Jinfeng raised her hand and gave Wang Shufen a big slap, cursing:

"Wang Shufen, you old whore, I did try to please you before, but that was because I was forced by your damned man and your short-lived son. Do you know how disgusting it was for me to be forced to say those insincere compliments to you?"

"Now that your husband and son have been arrested, I don't have to be afraid of you anymore."

"Sisters, the time for revenge has come..."

As soon as Sun Jinfeng finished speaking, Yang Cuihua raised her hand and slapped Wang Shufen again. Seeing this, the other old women rushed forward to beat Wang Shufen, and Wang Shufen immediately screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

These old ladies in the hospital have long been dissatisfied with Wang Shufen who has been showing off in front of them every day. Now that they have this opportunity, they naturally want to beat Wang Shufen to death.

Xu Damao looked at Wang Shufen who was being beaten by a group of people, and a happy smile appeared on his face, because he saw an opportunity to bring Liu Haizhong down.

Xu Damao had long been fed up with the simple-minded Liu Haizhong suppressing him. He had been looking for an opportunity to pull Liu Haizhong down from the position of patrol team captain so that he could take his place. Now he finally found the opportunity.

Wang Shufen was beaten by the group for about ten minutes, and was finally pulled away by Li Debiao, who could not stand it any longer.

Wang Shufen was beaten black and blue. She struggled to get up, said a few harsh words, and then limped home in shame.

After Wang Shufen left, the others also dispersed.

Xu Damao restrained his smile and immediately found Sun Jinfeng and Yang Cuihua.

"Aunt Sun, Aunt Yang, you've caused a big disaster. When Liu Haizhong gets out, he will definitely take revenge on you."

Sun Jinfeng said nonchalantly, "Xu Damao, stop trying to scare us. There are so many of us, we're not afraid of Liu Haizhong's revenge at all."

Xu Damao pretended to be anxious and said, "Aunt Sun, Aunt Yang, don't forget Liu Haizhong's position. He is now the captain of the patrol team. He can deal with you at any opportunity."

Yang Cuihua said in a panic, "Liu Haizhong has been taken to the police station. Can he still keep his position as patrol captain?"

Xu Damao said seriously, "You're overthinking this. As long as Director Li is willing to protect Liu Haizhong, he'll come out of the police station unharmed."

Sun Jinfeng said in a trembling voice, "What should I do?"

Xu Damao grinned and said, "I have a way to dethrone Liu Haizhong. It depends on whether you are willing to adopt it."

Yang Cuihua blurted out: "What method?"

Xu Damao smiled and said calmly, "If this gets out of hand, the factory will have no choice but to deal with Liu Haizhong."

"Ever since Liu Haizhong became the patrol captain, he's been raiding homes and arresting people everywhere. He's offended at least eighty, if not a hundred. If you unite the people in the hospital and then unite those who were persecuted by Liu Haizhong, and go to the police station and the steel mill together to cause trouble, the public outrage will be hard to resist, and no one will dare to protect Liu Haizhong."

Hearing this, Yang Cuihua said with joy, "That's a good idea. Let's do it."

Sun Jinfeng narrowed her eyes slightly, her face gloomy as she said:

"Xu Damao, you're using someone else's knife to kill someone. If we take down Liu Haizhong, you can reap the benefits and take over his position, right?"

Yang Cuihua reacted instantly after hearing this and said angrily:

"Xu Damao, you actually want to use us as pawns."

Xu Damao's expression froze. He didn't expect that the old woman Sun Jinfeng would be so smart and immediately saw through his purpose.
