Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 64
In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao continued to stay at home and read.

I have to say that Yan Fugui really knows how to calculate, and the few books he sent are all miscellaneous books that have no content and are forgotten after reading.

Although only ten credits were contributed for one book, it can be regarded as a harvest.

"Tomorrow is Monday again, I hope to refresh some good things."

Speaking of the exchange column, the past few weeks have passed, but it has brought me a lot of good things.

Now Yang Xiaotao's storage space is full of things from later generations, most of which are for food and a few for use.

There are many kinds of food, such as fast food such as instant noodles and ham sausage, as well as raw materials such as flour and pork.

It has also appeared several times.

It's just that most of the time they are toothbrushes, nail clippers and other small items. After Yang Xiaotao exchanged for a water bottle, he only exchanged for a multifunctional fruit knife and a military satchel.

Speaking of which, this army bag is also a rare thing, loved by many young people.

Ever since he had a satchel, Yang Xiaotao always reaped the enthusiasm of the little girls every time he went to the library.

If it weren't for the fact that there were too many beasts in the courtyard, he would have wanted to find one quickly so that he would have something to do at night.

It was a bit cloudy in the afternoon, after watching for a while, Yang Xiaotao went back to the house.

Xiaowei is still cheerful, and now she has settled down in the yard, and as long as Yang Xiaotao is at home, she will stay there.

From time to time, there were rustling sounds in the yard, and the wind blew past, making it green.

The courtyard was not peaceful either, and it immediately became a strange thing that the third master got something from Yang Xiaotao.

The three big moms are not conservative, and talking about the matter in the front yard with a few big moms immediately made many people think.

So before the sun set, someone came to Yang Xiaotao's house.

Wang Xiaohu rushed in with two pork kidneys in his arms, and then ran back home with a bundle of leeks and a bagful of tomatoes.

Then, a few more people came in one after another with some things in the yard, and Yang Xiaotao also politely returned their salutes.

Of course, some were rejected by Yang Xiaotao.

The entire yard was filled with a harmonious atmosphere, and the old man stomped his feet.

"No, Yang Xiaotao is buying people's hearts."

The uncle sat at the table with a mug in his hand and mumbled.

The first mother was cleaning up at home. Although she wanted to change something, but seeing her wife's expression, she didn't touch this bad luck.

What's more, they don't lack such things at home.

"Old Yi, I think this is very good."

"This child is considered sensible, and he will help his neighbors in need. His heart is not so heartless."

The first mother lowered her head and was busy, but she didn't see Yi Zhonghai's complexion getting worse and worse.

砰

"Women, what do you know?"

The first mother was taken aback, but she was a responsible person, her husband was her god at home, and when she heard Yi Zhonghai was angry, she didn't dare to speak.

Yi Zhonghai's face was unwilling, "What you see is only his deliberate performance. This kind of petty gain will only make those who have no principle lose their judgment."

"Our compound has always been amicable, and there has never been a blushing incident."

"But think about it, since Lao Yang left, which of these incidents has nothing to do with Yang Xiaotao?"

"Now he has taken advantage of it and bought people's hearts. That is to prepare for the future. This is buying people's hearts and hiding evil intentions."

"In the long run, who will listen to my uncle? Who will we rely on for the elderly in the future?"

The more Yi Zhonghai talked, the more excited he became, and the first mother felt a sudden shock when she heard this, and hurried forward to comfort him.

"Old man, are you thinking too much?"

"This Yang Xiaotao is not easy to get along with, maybe we will cause a lot of trouble."

"Didn't you tell me a few times before that you wouldn't provoke him?"

The aunt also asked about Yi Zhonghai vomiting blood several times, and she didn't want Yi Zhonghai to get involved in Yang Xiaotao's affairs from the bottom of her heart, for fear of causing any accidents and making her lose her support.

"One moment, another moment!"

As if thinking of something, Yi Zhonghai squinted his eyes and looked at a woman who came out of the small courtyard. The corner of the woman's mouth was pulled to the back of her head, and she was very proud of the pile of peppers in her hand.

Yi Zhonghai looked at it for a while, three or four people had already gone to Yang Xiaotao's place, but no one came out empty-handed.

Of course, Yi Zhonghai also saw that a few people who went in had something on their hands, just like the old lady Huang just now, who carried a small bag of peanuts when she went in.

"Do you need to exchange things for doing good deeds? Huh! This ideological awareness needs to be improved."

Yi Zhonghai had an idea in his mind, so he got up and walked out.

"Old man, where are you going?"

"I'm going to talk about it. You can't be too selfish. They are all in the same courtyard. What else do you want?"

The voice fell, and the person had already walked out of the door.

In the Jia family, Qin Huairu was reprimanded by Jia Zhang after she came back, and Jia Dongxu who was at the side also made sarcastic remarks, constantly saying that Qin Huairu was useless.

Qin Huairu couldn't speak out because of his suffering, Yang Xiaotao only said two words from the beginning to the end.

Still the same word.

"Mom, look quickly, the uncle is gone."

Sitting at the door, Jia Dongxu saw the direction the uncle was walking, and immediately yelled.

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongxu's voice in the room, he jumped down immediately, and he didn't care about talking about Qin Huairu, so he looked at the old man, thinking that he must be going to benefit the compound.

The whole family showed joyful expressions, waiting for the good news.

At the same time, the second uncle Liu Haizhong in the backyard lost his expression, and the second aunt beside him lowered her head, holding a bag of broken tea leaves in her hand.

"That little bastard really said that?"

The second aunt nodded immediately, her expression a little aggrieved.

Think of him as a woman, the second aunt in the yard, who went to ask for some leeks in person, and came back to make scrambled eggs for the second uncle, but was rejected.

After knocking on the door, he wanted to exchange tea, but Yang Xiaotao flatly refused, and also said that their family does not lack this, and the second uncle has so much money a month, so don't take advantage of it.

The second aunt came back angrily, and explained the matter emphatically.

"Yes, I don't give you any face."

"How can I go out in this courtyard?"

As the second aunt said, she could think of the person who was holding her back and chewing her tongue, and her whole heart was depressed.

"Little bastard, I hammered him."

The violent Liu Haizhong was about to talk with a hammer in his hand, but he was dragged back by his eldest son Liu Guangqi just as he left the house.

"Father, you'd better not go."

Liu Guangtian at the side also came over to persuade him, "Yes, father. Yang Xiaotao is amazing, you can't beat him!"

"Yeah, I couldn't fight last time."

Liu Guangfu also whispered behind.

Liu Haizhong only felt distressed and dizzy, "You, you two get lost!"

Liu Guangqi also cast his eyes at his two younger brothers.

"You two stop talking sarcasticly, don't you know that dad is angry?"

"Get out of here."

Liu Guangtian pulled Liu Guangfu down, glanced at Liu Guangqi's back unkindly, and then hurried to the house.

"Father, we don't have to get ahead of ourselves in this matter. Many people in the yard haven't had the benefit of it. Those people are more anxious than us."

Liu Guangqi snatched the hammer from Liu Haizhong's hand and said aside.

Liu Haizhong understood the meaning of Liu Guangqi's words, and then looked towards the middle court.

Silent for a long time, thinking of Yang Xiaotao's recent dominance, it's really hard to say who will beat who.

"Then wait, this account is endless!"

Yi Zhonghai approached Yang Xiaotao's compound under the expectant eyes of many people.

Yang Xiaotao was sitting on the stool, thinking about something.

Just now the second aunt brought some things and wanted to exchange leeks, but Yang Xiaotao flatly refused.

He didn't deliberately target the second uncle, of course there was part of the reason for this.

Most importantly, if everyone in the courtyard comes to exchange, what is the difference between that and speculation?
If it is only aimed at a certain type of person, then you can use help to explain the past, and others can see that he can also explain the past.

Of course, to plan ahead, Yang Xiaotao has experienced a lot in the workplace in his previous life. Although the folk customs are simple in this era, there are a few beasts if they are not kept together, let alone in this quadrangle full of birds.

Thump thump

A knock on the door interrupted Yang Xiaotao's thoughts.

"Who?"

Subconsciously said something, Yi Zhonghai's voice came from the door immediately.

Yang Xiaotao lowered his head and thought about it, and guessed Yi Zhonghai's intention.

"Just to clarify things, save trouble."

Standing up to open the door, Yi Zhonghai was about to enter with a smile all over his face.

Yang Xiaotao stood at the door, "My lord, what are you doing here?"

Seeing that Yang Xiaotao didn't let him in, Yi Zhonghai frowned, but he quickly recovered and said with a smile.

"Xiaotao, I see that you are willing to help the people in the courtyard. As the elder in charge of the courtyard, I am very happy and gratified."

"When your father was still around, he was an enthusiastic person. If the neighbors had any difficulties, they shouldn't just ask to help."

"Seeing you like this now, doesn't disappoint your father's upbringing."

Yi Zhonghai seemed to be recalling and said with emotion, but he didn't notice the disgust on Yang Xiaotao's face.

He doesn't care who the father of his body is, he is the one who is alive now, not to mention that he knows from his predecessor that Yang's father has been lying in bed for more than two months, except for Uncle Chen's house, a few workers in the factory often help, Anyone from here come over to take a look?
Not to mention donations, in their eyes, the compensation that Father Yang is holding is already enough to envy.

So Yi Zhonghai used Yang's father as an example, not only did not arouse Yang Xiaotao's favor, but he was somewhat disgusted.

"These people in our courtyard are all kind people who are understanding, united and friendly. We can help each other, and life will definitely be better in the future!"

Yi Zhonghai was full of smiles and talked freely.

At this moment, Yang Xiaotao couldn't listen anymore, and said directly, "Master, just say what you want."

"My father has been lying in bed for so long, and he hasn't seen many people come to visit, let alone donate money."

"You know in your heart that this matter is not authentic. Let's not talk about our ancestors. I'm going to cook. If you have something to say, just say it."

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he felt uncomfortable, and he said his feelings, but this kid didn't listen at all.

But thinking of the time when Lao Yang was there, he also felt a little timid.

But he is the kind of person who keeps things in his heart, his face is still calm, his eyes are squinted, but he continues to preach to Yang Xiaotao.

"Xiaotao, since you are willing to help the people in the yard, you must treat them equally. Also, these people are selfless, how can they ask for things from others?"

"So, let me tell you, you must open up the situation. It is such a noble thing to help others, and you must not tarnish the simplicity of the people."

Yi Zhonghai spoke earnestly, but Yang Xiaotao laughed.

"Master, Yi Zhonghai. Have you finished talking?"

Yi Zhonghai was angry, this is the first time Yang Xiaotao called him by name?

"Yang Xiaotao, don't be self-righteous."

"Haha, I'm self righteous, it's alright, Yi Zhonghai, don't give me too much credit."

Yang Xiaotao spoke loudly, the entire middle courtyard could hear clearly, many people walked out the door and looked here.

This is exactly what Yang Xiaotao wanted. Only when there are many people can he explain things clearly.

"You said to help the people in the compound, then I will tell you, I will help some people in our compound, but I will not give to some people even if they are killed."

"You, Yi Zhonghai, cost 99 yuan a month. Are you ashamed to come here to ask for things?"

"There are more than 70 bangs, which one is not better than the people in the courtyard?"

"There's also Jia's family, that old woman is eating fat, is she a person who can't eat?"

"Don't say that people are treated equally, you should straighten your ass first, help those in need, and don't think about calculating others all day long."

砰

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he closed the door without giving Yi Zhonghai a chance to speak.

Yi Zhonghai's face was livid, he looked at the door and the discussions around him, he raised his head and snorted coldly, then turned and left.
