Siheyuan: Fighting against the beasts under the pressure of the system

"Come on if you want! Why are you bringing things here? Minghui, come in!"

The third aunt took the brown sugar from Zhang Minghui's hand.

After Zhang Minghui carried Doudou into the house, he saw Yan Fugui wearing a cotton hat and sitting on a chair in the living room with a gloomy look on his face.

The scars on the face have almost faded, but if you look closely, you can still see some residual marks.

Seeing Zhang Minghui enter the room, he forced a smile.

"Minghui, come here. Sit down!"

Zhang Minghui sat on the chair holding Doudou and spoke.

"Uncle, how are you? Are you okay? I heard that you came back from the hospital, so I came to see you. You must have suffered a lot!"

Yan Fugui couldn't help feeling upset. "He Daqing, you bastard, you broke my arm. How can I go to work and earn money? You are so immoral." He said with a sad face.

"It's OK. The doctor told me that I can just stay at home and take care of myself. There's no big problem."

Before the two of them had exchanged a few words, they heard a commotion in the middle courtyard. The sound of cursing could be faintly heard in the front yard.

When Zhang Minghui heard it, it seemed to be Jia Zhang's voice. Seeing Yan Fugui sitting motionless on the chair, he couldn't help but ask a question.

"Uncle, why don't you go over and take a look? It seems like Aunt Zhang is making a fuss again."

Yan Fugui had a gloomy face. He was beaten like this and people knew that he had written a letter of denunciation. He was so embarrassed.

Let alone Jia Zhang quarreling, even if Jia Zhang hanged herself, Yan Fugui would not go out to see. Fearing that people would point fingers at him, he spoke in a somewhat bleak tone.

"Minghui, I'm still feeling a little uncomfortable, so I won't go. You go over and take a look!"

When Zhang Minghui arrived at the middle courtyard, he saw Jia Zhang standing at the door of He Yuzhu's house, cursing loudly.

"He Daqing, you damned beast, you hired someone to break our Dongxu's arm, you are such a heartless person."

"My son can't go to work anymore. Get out of here and compensate my family for the losses."

At this time, people from every household came. This incident caused quite a stir and everyone was feeling resentful. Having broken arms and legs was a small matter to recover from.

The key is that I can't go to work for a few months. It's not good for the family to have no income! Isn't it like that?

So when Jia Zhang was making a fuss, the families of the neighbors who were involved in the accident all looked at He Daqing's family with hatred, hoping that Jia Zhang would take the lead in getting some compensation back.

So that I can supplement the family income.

He Daqing staggered out of the house, holding a large teacup in his hand. He took a sip of tea and started talking with a smile.

"Hey, everyone is here. Hey, isn't this the sister-in-law of the Jia family? I heard that you have been in class for several days at the street office. How come you didn't learn your lesson and still dare to be so arrogant?"

"What's the matter? The people from the street office can't deal with you anymore, right?"

When Jia Zhang heard this, she trembled a little in her heart, but she was not intolerant and started to curse.

"He Daqing, don't tell me this. My son asked you to find someone to beat me up like this, so you must compensate my family for the losses. You old beast, we live in the same courtyard, how could you have the heart to do that to me?"

"It's nothing."

"If you don't compensate my family for the damage today, I will hang myself at your doorstep."

He Daqing's face darkened, his eyes widened, and he spoke loudly.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, don't mess with me. If you have the guts, just hang yourself. Once you're dead, I'll buy you a coffin and leave you a whole body."

"I won't pay any compensation. I didn't hit him, so don't accuse a good person."

"Go find whoever beat your son. Why are you coming to me to make trouble? Don't force me to beat a woman."

When Jia Zhang saw He Daqing glaring at her, she felt a little scared. Then, when she saw Liu Haizhong coming towards her from the backyard, she hurriedly took a few steps forward and said something aggrieved.

"Uncle, you are the manager of our hospital. Look at what has happened. My Dongxu has been beaten up like this. He can't go to work at all. How can he live like this?"

After she finished speaking, she started to cry loudly. Her crying attracted several victims' families to start crying too.

The middle court was suddenly filled with cries, which was extremely heartbreaking. The neighbors were upset and started to talk about it.

When Liu Haizhong saw the situation at the scene, his chubby face became stern. What had happened during this period made him scared and feel that he had lost face in the hospital.

The neighborhood office has contacted him several times, asking him if he can handle the affairs of the hospital, and if he can't, he will hand it over to someone else.

This scared Liu Haizhong to death. He had spent a lot of money on this second uncle. If the street office removed him, he would be heartbroken.

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong put his hands behind his back and shouted loudly.

"He Daqing, we are neighbors living in the same courtyard, how could you be so harsh? Now they are lying at home unable to move, unable to go to work, how can they live like this?"

He Daqing said nonchalantly.

"Live your life the way you want. Even if you die in front of my house, I won't shed a single tear. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done such a mean thing!"

"Damn it, when you wrote the report letter, why didn't you think about how my family would live if I went to jail? Now you're talking to me about this? No way."

Liu Haizhong didn't know what to say. It was no wonder that He Daqing was so angry. What these companies did was not decent. Speculation was a serious crime. If they were caught, they would be ruined.

Seeing that Liu Haizhong didn't say anything, He Daqing couldn't help but say a few more words.

"Neighbors, ask yourselves, is it my fault? These thieves can't stand seeing others doing well, and because they saw that my family was eating better, they wrote letters of denunciation. They are so heartless."

"Everyone, be careful. Be careful that someone doesn't like your family and writes a report to send you to jail."

As soon as these words were spoken, the neighbors in the yard all stared at those families with strange eyes, which made them feel ashamed to stay in the middle yard and they hurriedly ran back home.

Seeing that He Daqing was so tough, Jia Zhang went home with a sad face.

Afterwards, the crowd slowly dispersed and the incident slowly passed.

The report letter is a double-edged sword. It would be fine if you didn't know about it, but after knowing it, everyone will feel disgusted and no one will stand up for it.

A few days later, New Year's Day arrived.

Early in the morning, Zhang Minghui brought Doudou to burn incense for his parents and placed some offerings. Doudou also leaned over to Zhang Minghui's ear and asked naively.

"Brother, brother, can we still eat the apples after they are placed there?"

Zhang Minghui pinched Doudou's little face and said with a smile.

"You little greedy cat, of course you can eat it, this is a blessing from our parents."

After holding Doudou and paying homage to his parents, Zhang Minghui looked at the scenery outside the window and couldn't help but think of a sentence: 1958 has passed, and I miss it very much.
