The ups and downs of life in the Siheyuan

Chapter 64 Your uncle is still your uncle

To be honest, this is the first time Li Yuan has experienced this kind of occasion.

Normally everyone laughs and laughs, and occasionally has conflicts, but when facing outsiders, the compound is surprisingly united.

"Old Suntou, how many times has this happened to you? There is something that cannot be discussed between husband and wife. Isn't it very shameful for a grown man to hit a woman?!"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Lao Suntou, whose true identity was revealed, and scolded him. Lao Suntou lowered his head and did not dare to refute.

Yi Zhonghai was also helpless. He had already experienced the sharp words of the other party, so he had no choice but to operate on Lao Sun's head first.

"I was also temporarily confused after drinking...".

"Confused?! I see you are very sober!" Liu Haizhong was really annoyed with this person, always causing him trouble.

Lao Suntou didn't dare to refute, he just bowed his head and responded.

"Let me make a suggestion. Let's see if it's feasible?" Yi Zhonghai paused and looked around.

"Lao Yi, don't feel any psychological burden. Speak out and we will listen." Liu Haizhong said this out of nowhere.

Yi Zhonghai kept slandering in his heart.

"Okay. Old Liu Tou, if you beat your wife and children again for no reason in the future, we will treat you as if you are no longer in our compound. If they come to you again in the future, we will not come forward."

"I think it's okay." He held his hands behind his bangs and nodded.

"I agree." Yan Fugui then spoke in agreement.

Others also agreed, but those who had different opinions did not dare to speak out in such an occasion.

"Sun Wang, do you accept it or not?" Yi Zhonghai stared at Old Sun Tou with a sense of oppression.

At this time, the eighth-level fitters are a national treasure. Many current equipments lack processing accuracy. In order to improve the quality of products, more reliance is placed on the touch of the eighth-level workers for finishing.

In the entire Kyoto, there are not more than a hundred level 8 workers, and there are only six or seven people in the steel rolling mill of a key enterprise.

Nowadays, for level 8 workers, the factory director has to take the initiative to say hello when he sees them, which shows that they are precious and have a high social status.

Even in the 80s, most of the children in many courtyards were not the children of factory leaders, but the children of Grade 8 workers.

Lao Suntou raised his head and looked around. Most of the people in the courtyard looked with contempt, so he had no choice but to agree in a low voice.

"Louder!" Liu Haizhong's temper rose again.

"I agree!" Old Liu raised his head an octave, but he never raised his head.

"You guys, let's see if it's feasible." Yi Zhonghai turned to a few young people.

"It works!", then turned to Lao Suntou, "Sun Wang, I hope you will do what you say, otherwise we will no longer be relatives next time."

Lao Suntou looked helplessly at his brothers-in-law and nodded slightly.

At this time, suppressed cries could be heard in the room, and the three aunts who had already entered were comforting the Sun family's wife.

The people in the courtyard were all arrogant when they saw that they had gained a lot of dignity.

Li Yuan also had to admire the abilities of several uncles, especially Yi Zhonghai, who had repeatedly cut and beaten, and invisibly established his prestige again.

This kind of prestige is not established in a day or two, but is accumulated over time and is constantly rooted in people's hearts. Let everyone instinctively think of a few uncles when encountering something.

Even in later generations, many village chiefs and party secretaries are the authorities in the village. Not to mention that now, everyone has just experienced the mass movement before liberation.

Not to mention that after liberation, the mass movement was in full swing.

This invisibly gives these grassroots leaders the cloak of representing the government. This concept cannot be changed overnight.

"This matter is over, let's talk about compensation," Yi Zhonghai said.

When Lao Suntou heard the word compensation, he raised his head and looked at Yi Zhonghai gratefully.

"Look, since we are all relatives, but you trashed his house, should you pay for the repair costs?"

Yi Zhonghai deserves to be able to secure the throne of the first master in the courtyard. Just now he was criticizing Lao Suntou righteously, but now he is thinking about fighting for Lao Suntou's interests.

"This..." Sun's wife's two younger brothers looked at each other, but several other relatives looked away.

"Okay, as long as Sun Wang lives a good life with my sister, I will take over this account." The leader looked at everyone and knew that this kind of thing could only happen to their brothers.

"Okay, like a man!" Liu Haizhong was the first to express his opinion.

Yan Fugui stood there without speaking, but the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

Yi Zhonghai looked calm and said to He Yuzhu: "Zhuzhu, I want to send a few friends."

He Yuzhu stepped forward and made a gesture of invitation, "Please!"

The leading young man shouted into the room: "Sister, we are leaving. Remember to come to us if you need anything in the future."

Another one also shouted with a tearful tone: "Sister, we are going back." After saying that, he shed big tears and strode out first.

The leader nodded to the uncles, turned around and followed everyone out of the compound.

"Wait a minute, Sun Wang," Yi Zhonghai called out to Lao Suntou.

"The old and young men in the courtyard will help you settle the matter. It depends on what you do from now on. Things can be done once, twice, and not repeated, you know."

Sun Wang had to face everyone and said, "Thank you, let's see how I perform in the future."

Although he escaped tonight, he was embarrassed in the courtyard, and was repeatedly threatened by several uncles. He was angry in his heart, but he did not dare to act out.

Now that he can't even beat his wife and children, he suddenly feels that life is boring.

Yi Zhonghai took a few steps closer to Lao Sun and said, "If a child makes a mistake, he must be supervised, but he must have a legitimate reason and pay attention to the methods."

Although Yi Zhonghai's voice was low, to Li Yuan, it was like a shout in his ear. Hearing his subtle reminder, Li Yuan couldn't help shouting in his heart, "You old man! You are very bad!"

He did both good guys and bad guys, but in the end he left Lao Suntou with the character of a good guy.

Old Suntou looked at Yi Zhonghai in surprise as he turned to leave, with complicated meanings in his eyes. Finally, he shook his head, turned around and walked home without saying a word, silently starting to clean up the broken home.

Li Yuan couldn't help it. The superiority of men to women has long been tampered with, and it has become a powerful custom that restrains women.

The archways and imperial edicts of the past dynasties have strengthened this custom and raised it to the cultural level.

Some people with ulterior motives have tampered with Confucius's ideas, saying that men are inherently noble and women are inherently humble. In fact, this is a misunderstanding of Confucius's thought of "men are superior to women".

The idea that men are superior to women first comes from the Book of Changes, in which "Qian" represents heaven, men, fathers, kings, etc., and "Kun" represents earth, women, mothers, concubines, etc.

Tianzun means that the sky is high and far away, and it is fair and selfless. It’s not that God himself is noble. The humble earth means that the earth is down-to-earth and friendly, and does not distinguish between pure and dirty, high or low.

There is a saying in the Book of Changes: "The terrain is good, and a gentleman carries things with great virtue."

A few more words here.

Some thoughtful people in the past defined "Bagua" as a fortune-telling book and classified it into the ranks of superstition.

In fact, the "Book of Changes" is the foundation of Chinese philosophical theory, including astronomy, geography, physics, mathematics, and various thoughts that we are familiar with, etc., all have the shadow of the "Book of Changes".

In particular, traditional Chinese medicine is the discipline most closely integrated with the Book of Changes.

Now there is a saying: the 200 years of modern world history is the history of the Chinese people being fooled. Huawei's strong rise is a powerful counterattack against the West's history of plagiarism.
