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

After entering the room and sitting on a chair, Yan Fugui was still analyzing and judging. After talking with Zhang Minghui just now, he saw that Zhang Minghui's eyes were calm and his tone was calm.

It seemed as if nothing had happened. Yan Fugui concluded that Zhang Minghui must have made a lot of progress and knew who was plotting against him. Otherwise, his reaction would not be so calm.

Yan Fugui felt that Yi Zhonghai was the primary suspect, and that Cheng Lide and his wife in the backyard were definitely smart enough to come up with such a scheme, but the Cheng family had a very good relationship with Zhang Minghui.

I haven't heard that they had a falling out!

As for the rest, Yan Fugui curled his lips in disdain. They were all a bunch of brave but foolish people, not worth having as advisors.

Yan Fugui considers himself a cultured person and likes to show off his literary talent. His favorite famous work is Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Especially the half set of the 1957 edition of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that he treasured.

The 1957 edition of the comic strip Romance of the Three Kingdoms was created shortly after the founding of New China, and brought together more than painters such as Cheng Shifa, Liu Danzhai, Liu Xiyong, Zhao Sandao, Chen Guangyi, and Xu Zhengping.

They were all well-known Chinese painting masters and comic strip masters in Shanghai. The titles of all the books were written by Chinese painting master He Tianjian, who was paid 3 yuan at the time.

Moreover, each comic book has a seal that is different from other comic books, and these seals are made by the seal engraver Du Rubing.

Such a large creative team made the 6941 edition of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" comic book, which included 60 pictures in 1957 volumes, an insurmountable monumental work and a masterpiece among out-of-print works.

This was bought by Yan Fugui from a colleague. Yan Fugui, who was usually very frugal, saved up nearly 10 yuan and bought this half set of Romance of the Three Kingdoms comic book.

Yan Fugui would often read this set of comic books, which he regarded as a treasure. The plots in it made him feel very excited, and he often recalled the plots in it.

Besides, when Zhang Minghui passed by the Central Courtyard, he saw that many people had turned off the lights and went to bed. He glanced at Yi Zhonghai's house and saw that all the lights were turned off.

The Wang Lizhu brothers had not returned home yet, and there was no trace of them in the house.

Zhang Minghui didn't pause. Now was not the time to explore. He had to go home and check.

After arriving home, unexpectedly, Cheng Siying was also there. She was chatting casually with Cheng Siyu on the kang when she saw Zhang Minghui enter the room.

Cheng Siying opened her eyes wide, stood up from the kang, looked Zhang Minghui up and down for a long time, and made mocking sounds.

"Oh, someone like you is molesting you. Is that woman blind? She came out without her glasses."

Cheng Siyu pulled Cheng Siying's sleeve, signaling her sister to speak less harshly. She bit her lips and spoke in a mosquito-like voice.

"Sister, weren't you worried about Brother Minghui just now, afraid that he would be upset and something would happen?"

Cheng Siying's thoughts were exposed, and her expression changed. Her slender hand went straight to Cheng Siyu's ear, pulled Cheng Siyu's ear, and pouted angrily.

"You stupid girl, you were obviously worried about your brother Minghui, so you had to drag me here, and you even dared to frame me."

Cheng Siyu's ears were torn and she couldn't help but beg for mercy.

"Sister, I said something wrong, please forgive me!"

Cheng Siying snorted coldly, tilted her neck back, let go of her hands, and spoke proudly.

"Siyu, you stupid girl, you should know what's best for you."

Unexpectedly, Doudou poked his little head out of Cheng Siyu's arms, wrinkled his nose, and spoke softly.

"Sister Siying bullied people. I heard everything just now. You came to check because you were worried that something might happen to my brother."

Hearing Doudou's voice, Cheng Siying screamed "Ah!", her face flushed with shame. She stomped the ground with her right foot, and ran towards Doudou with both hands, ready to catch this little brat.

Zhang Minghui came into the room without saying a word!

Looking at Cheng Siying who kept screaming, Doudou who was dodging back and forth on the kang, and Cheng Siyu who kept trying to stop her sister, the laughter of several people echoed in the small room.

The depressed mood dissipated as they played and played.

It was not until bursts of coughing were heard from next door that the laughter and joy gradually died down, and Cheng Siyu greeted Zhang Minghui.

"Brother Minghui, I hope you're okay. I'll go back first."

Without waiting for Zhang Minghui to reply, Cheng Siyu ran to the threshold, turned around, waved her little fist at Cheng Siying, and snorted.

"Sister, you just bully people. Doudou is right. You have been complaining about it for a long time just now."

"Cheng Siyu, you want to die?"

Cheng Siying blushed in anger, stamped her feet in dissatisfaction, chased her sister, and ran out of Zhang Minghui's house.

Looking at the two sisters running away one after the other, Zhang Minghui sat down on the kang and let Doudou's little body lie in his arms. Doudou has grown a lot taller now and has gained weight.

Lying in Zhang Minghui's arms, Doudou couldn't help but ask.

"Brother, they said you were bullied, is that true?"

Zhang Minghui couldn't help but burst into laughter. Seeing his brother's smile, he knew that his brother was not bullied. Doudou showed a bright smile on his face.

In Doudou's heart, his brother is the most powerful, how could he let anyone bully him!

It’s always my brother who bullies others.

So Doudou is really not worried, she has absolute confidence in her brother.

After a while, Doudou, who had been playing all day, fell asleep. I helped Doudou take off his coat, spread the bedding, and covered him with the quilt.

He patted the quilt gently, his body swayed constantly, and he hummed softly. "Youth Friendship Waltz" was Doudou's favorite song.

After Zhang Minghui changed his clothes and pushed the door open, he found that all the lights in the yard were off and everyone in the household had fallen into a deep sleep.

I came to the central courtyard, to the corner of Wang Lizhu's house, and listened quietly for a while. The two brothers had not returned yet.

Then, he went to the backyard, climbed over the wall, and went straight to the entrance of the alley to see if he could eavesdrop on anything.

The street was completely silent, not a single person was in sight. Zhang Minghui was not in a hurry, he hid in the shadows and sat quietly, waiting for the two brothers to return.

It was not until after 23 p.m. that two figures staggered towards him from a distance. Zhang Minghui didn't even need to look carefully to know that they were definitely the Wang Lizhu brothers.

I walked slowly from the shadows, got closer, and finally heard the conversation of two people.

The two brothers talked as they walked.

"Brother, this wine is really good. I didn't expect that Wang Dapao had some good wine hidden in his hand. If I hadn't found it, this guy would not have been willing to take it out."

Then, Wang Lizhu lowered his voice and spoke in a low voice.

"Brother, do you think Zhang Minghui can find out what we did? I think the situation is not good. The closer we get to our home, the more I feel bad."
