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

Zhang Minghui never expected that these families would start fighting each other. First, Cheng Lide spent almost the same price as Zhang Minghui to buy a bicycle.

Let my eldest daughter ride a bike to work so she doesn’t have to walk for such a long time every day.

All the neighbors in the compound came to watch that day. Cheng Lide was very generous and let everyone watch freely. He was very polite and smiling. Cheng Lide's smile could be seen through his bangs.

It's like I've eaten some Shanxi aged vinegar, I'm so jealous.

He felt that Cheng Lide was making fun of him for not being able to afford a bicycle. It was the same thing. When you look down on someone, everything he does is wrong.

Ever since Cheng Lide came into the hospital, Liu Haizhong has looked down on the Cheng family and felt jealous. After all, Cheng Lide's wife is pretty and there are three people working at home.

Compared to myself.

Liu Haizhong, who always had a good-looking face, couldn't hold his face anymore. He hated the Cheng family and wanted to compare with them in everything. He was even surprised when he saw that the Cheng family bought a bicycle.

Liu Haizhong didn't hesitate. After get off work the next day, he went to the commission bank with Liu Guangqi and bought a bicycle. As for showing off his wealth, Liu Haizhong no longer had this concept in his mind.

He knew that he could not be outdone by the Cheng family.

Liu Guangqi, with a big smile on his face, carried Liu Haizhong into the courtyard, attracting the neighbors to come and watch. Why was Liu Guangqi smiling? Because Liu Haizhong didn't know how to ride a bicycle at all.

He was too short and not tall enough to fit on the pedals. In order to compete with the Cheng family, he bought an unnecessary bicycle, which was equivalent to the one provided for Liu Guangqi. How could he not be happy?

Liu Haizhong looked at the Cheng family in the distance with pride, his big head held high, pushing his bicycle around the backyard. He wanted to provoke the old Cheng family, but unfortunately the old Cheng family was not stimulated.

The third uncle, Yan Fugui, was stimulated. Seeing that several families had bought bicycles, Yan Fugui suddenly became anxious. He had been thinking about the bicycle for a long time and had wanted to buy one.

I just can’t bear to spend so much money, and I’m afraid my neighbors will be jealous.

After Liu Haizhong bought the bicycle, many people began to tease Yan Fugui and say evil things about him.

"Uncle, Old Liu in the backyard has already bought it. What's your plan?"

Yan Fugui thought about it for a long time, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. At noon, he went to the commission bank and picked out a women's bicycle that was about 70% new.

Much cheaper than other bikes.

After buying it, when Yan Fugui heard someone making fun of his car, he didn't get angry, but instead spoke confidently.

"The bike is too big, I can't ride it. I'm not used to riding big bikes. I like riding this light one."

After several families bought cars, the neighbors in the courtyard became extremely jealous, especially Jia Zhang, who stood in the middle courtyard with a big mouth and kept cursing.

"You bunch of damn people, you have money but you won't help our Jia family, you will just buy useless things, you bastards, when I ask you to borrow money, none of you will lend it to me."

"You pay so much money to buy a bicycle, you are a beast!"

Jia Zhang stared at the backyard with her triangular eyes coldly, and the idea of ​​letting Bang Geng steal came to her mind again. These days, Jia Zhang has been thinking about this matter, but she was hesitant.

Whether to go to Zhang Minghui's house to steal or not, nowadays many families appear to be rich, but those few families have people at home every day, so they don't even have the opportunity to steal.

Only Zhang Minghui's home in the backyard and the newly moved Cheng Lide's home were empty. After all, the old Cheng family had a man at home, and Jia Zhang was afraid that something might happen and it would end badly.

In the past two years, although Zhang Minghui didn't talk much in the courtyard, Jia Zhang was still quite afraid of this kid, knowing that he was cruel and cunning.

He is not someone you can easily mess with.

At night, while eating a steamed bun, Jia Zhang choked and rolled her eyes. After swallowing the food with water, Jia Zhang did not hesitate and made up her mind to let Bang Geng take action.

I have to get some delicious food or money from Zhang Minghui's house to supplement the family expenses. Anyway, the kid is not at home, and I don't know who did it if the house was robbed.

If Banggeng is discovered, all he can do is make amends and apologize, and then say that the child was young and ignorant and was just joking.

Jia Zhang made up her mind, and after dinner she went outside with the stick in her arms and started to explain things to her eldest grandson.

"Bang Geng, how's your lock picking practice going these days?"

Hearing his grandmother's question, Bang Geng raised his neck proudly and spoke with full confidence.

"Grandma, I'm really good at unlocking things now. It only takes me a few seconds to open a lock. Uncle Shazhu even praised me for my talent and said I'm a genius."

Jia Zhang excitedly showed her big yellow teeth, hugged Bang Geng's chubby face and kissed him madly, until Bang Geng's face was covered with Jia Zhang's saliva.

Jia Zhang glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention, so she spoke in a low voice.

"Grandson, if you say you have a headache tomorrow morning, don't go to school. Go to Old Zhang's house in the backyard. They have a lot of delicious food. Bring some back."

"Grandma will buy you some candy."

When Banggeng heard that he didn't have to go to school and could eat candy, he was so happy. He didn't want to go to school, but he immediately nodded excitedly.

Zhang Minghui didn't know that Banggeng was going to take action. Every day when he passed by the Central Courtyard, Zhang Minghui would stare at the Jia family, and he wanted to run to Banggeng and tell him.

"Bang Geng, come to my house and steal! I have a lot of money, just waiting for you to take it!"

Unfortunately, I waited and waited, and all the flowers withered, but he still didn't come.

Just in case, I communicated with Doudou in advance and told him that if he came home from school at night and saw the door open, he must not go in.

Just stay at the Cheng family next door.

At that time, Doudou frowned, his little face twitched, and he spoke with melancholy.

"Brother, is our house going to be robbed?"

Zhang Minghui looked at Doudou in surprise. Before he could say anything, Doudou whispered.

"Brother, don't look at my young age, I know whether it is Banggeng who wants to come to our house to steal things."

Zhang Minghui stood up and looked at Doudou in panic, wondering if Doudou had been possessed by someone.

When the little girl saw her brother's actions, she waved Zhang Minghui with her little hand and spoke softly.

"Brother, all the kids in the yard know that Banggeng is a thief. We often talk about it. They also heard from adults that the next family to be robbed will definitely be ours or Old Cheng's."

Zhang Minghui breathed a sigh of relief, feeling good that Doudou was not possessed. He walked forward, took Doudou's little hand, and asked in a low voice.

"Doudou, these are all kids. Did they tell you that?"

Doudou nodded, leaned in Zhang Minghui's arms, and sighed like an adult.

"Brother, Bang Geng is so mean. He always bullies others. His grandmother often scolds us. We all don't like his family."

"The teacher told us not to steal. Bang Geng is a thief and we need to catch him."
