Siheyuan: After I moved in, the compound became a mess

Xu Damao rolled his eyes at Liu Guangtian and thought to himself, you kid, you forgot your benefactor just after eating the roasted sweet potatoes, right?

"I'm telling you, Guangtian. It's not Old Yan who's saying anything bad to you, but you really need to improve your awareness. Aren't we all doing this for the sake of harmony in the compound?"

Xu Damao patted Liu Guangtian on the shoulder and said, "Come on, don't just stand there in this cold weather. Help with some work. Come with me to move some bricks and find some thicker bamboo poles."

When the two went to look for the bamboo pole, Sha Zhu hurried out of the deaf old lady's room.

He had heard the noise just now, but he didn't hear it clearly. It was not until he arrived at the door that he recognized Qin Huairu's voice, mixed with the boasting of Xu Damao and Liu Guangtian.

When I opened the door, I saw Qin Huairu's eyes were red and tears were falling.

Sha Zhu quickly closed the door and ran over.

"Oh, Sister Qin, what's wrong with you? It's winter now, if you cry any more, your face will be frozen."

Yan Bugui's wife just complained a few words, but she never expected Qin Huairu to cry. She was dumbfounded, "Oh Huairu, it's not necessary, it's really not necessary."

"I wonder what's going on with Second Aunt? I just heard the voices of Xu Damao and Liu Guangtian. Did they bully Sister Qin?"

As he said that, Sha Zhu glared fiercely and said, "It really has to be repaired one day. I will go find them right away."

Yan Bugui's wife was stunned for a moment, and quickly grabbed Shazhu's sleeve: "It's not what you think, Shazhu, I came here to hang clothes......"

When Yan Bugui's wife told the story, Xu Damao's face turned disgusted.

"I say, Second Aunt, you are the same. Where is your third son? If it doesn't work, just ask Second Uncle to come forward and build another rack. Why are you fighting with Sister Qin for the clothes drying rack?"

While Sha Zhu was talking, he kept winking at Yan Bugui's wife behind Qin Huairu's back.

Yan Bugui's wife is such a smart person. Besides, even if a fool had lived with Yan Bugui for decades, he would become smart after sleeping in the same bed with him.

"Shazhu, you're right. This is not my fault."

Yan Bugui's wife really didn't dare to offend Qin Huairu at this critical juncture. Her husband had just collapsed on the kang, and you were bullying him. Don't say that you have a second uncle in your family, even if you have ten uncles, it wouldn't be okay.

If this matter gets out in the courtyard, I won’t be able to live like this.

After so many years of being neighbors, the Jia family is really in trouble this time. Even if everyone helps, we must not add insult to injury, otherwise we will get criticized.

"Huai Ru, don't bother with Second Aunt. I was anxious too. It was all a misunderstanding. Second Aunt just muttered a few words. She definitely didn't mean to bully you."

"It's been so many years. Huairu, you've been married into this courtyard for more than ten years. Don't you know what Second Aunt is like? She definitely doesn't have bad intentions."

"Be obedient and stop crying. After Xu Damao and Liu Guangtian have finished setting up the stage, Second Aunt will leave a place for you."

Seeing Qin Huairu crying so sadly, Yan Bugui's wife was also anxious. What was going on? She just muttered a few words, but who would have thought that Qin Huairu would cry again. This was really embarrassing for her.

But there is really no other way at the moment, we can only coax her into taking one path.

"Second Aunt, I'm not crying because of this. I just remembered something painful."

Qin Huairu wiped her tears and choked up, "I know it's not your fault, Second Auntie. Maybe I've just had too many things weighing on my mind recently, and now I think of them all at once. I don't want to cry, but I just can't help it."

As she spoke, Qin Huairu cried even harder.

A string of tears fell down that fair little face. Oh my god, Shazhu stomped his feet, feeling very upset.

When Sha Zhu and Yan Bugui's wife were at a loss, Liu Haizhong lifted the door curtain and walked out.

"You guys, what's going on?"

Liu Haizhong thought that the problem just now was solved, but a new problem arose. "Silly Zhu, what are you doing here? What does this have to do with you? Go do what you need to do."

Seeing Sha Zhu standing next to Qin Huairu, Liu Haizhong frowned and scolded him immediately.

Sha Zhu stiffened his neck and said, "Uncle, I respect you for working hard for the compound and call you uncle, but you can't just scold me without knowing the truth."

"I won't mention it before. If nothing happened, you couldn't see me here just now. Didn't something happen? You are not here. As a member of the hospital, can I just do nothing?"

"Did you solve it?"

Liu Haizhong pointed at the crying Qin Huairu and said, "She was fine when I left just now, how come she's crying in the blink of an eye? Where are Xu Damao and my second son? Do they care about setting up the clothes drying rack? Have they given up?!"

Hearing Liu Haizhong's tone becoming increasingly aggressive, Yan Bugui's wife hurried over to explain.

"That's what happened."

Liu Haizhong tightened his coat and said thoughtfully, "Huai Ru, since it has happened, we have to take it on. As long as people are alive, we can still live. Don't worry, as long as I am in power, I will not let you starve."

Sha Zhu nodded beside him, this sounded like a normal thing to say.

"Alright, Huairu, stop crying. It's cold and your face will get frozen soon. His second aunt also said that he was just grumbling because he was anxious. He definitely didn't mean anything against you. You two have lived together in the courtyard for so many years and you have never had a quarrel. There is no need to take it to heart."

While Liu Haizhong was speaking, Xu Damao and Liu Guangtian came over from the Moon Gate, one carrying a bamboo pole and the other carrying bricks.

"Hey, why are you crying again?"

Xu Damao walked closer and threw the bamboo pole to the ground, "Silly Zhu, you must have said something unnecessary, right? I knew you were a worthless person."

"Okay Xu Damao, stop talking nonsense and tell the truth. This matter has nothing to do with Sha Zhu."

Before Sha Zhu could start cursing, Liu Haizhong spoke.

Xu Damao glared and really wanted to point at Liu Haizhong's nose and curse, "Did you eat that sweet potato into a dog's stomach just now?"

He ate my sweet potato and then turned around and scolded me. What a piece of shit!

"Okay, let's put up the shelf quickly. Jin Damao, you deserve praise. You have a keen eye for work. It's not easy for you to think about your neighbors in such a cold weather."

Liu Haizhong seemed to think that what he said just now was a bit harsh. No matter what, Xu Damao was also a mediator, and he shouldn't have leaned over to help Sha Zhu speak.

Xu Damao looked at the complacent Sha Zhu and felt extremely angry.

"Shazhu, don't just stand there. Hurry up and get busy. Get the job done quickly." Liu Haizhong instructed from the side.

Sha Zhu's eyelids drooped: "No, uncle, I have to go home and take a nap. I have to get up later and sweep the front yard with a broom, otherwise I think someone will come to me soon."

Liu Haizhong really had no idea what to do about Sha Zhu not moving his head.

If Xu Damao had not been greedy for the position of mediator, he would not have been able to order Xu Damao around. The only person he could order around was Liu Guangtian, who was carrying bricks.

Liu Haizhong sighed and waved goodbye to Sha Zhu.

Before leaving, Sha Zhu gave Xu Damao a look, asking him to do a good job.
