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

Xu Damao's face was flushed, his eyes were blurry, but he spoke very clearly. He whispered to Xu Fugui.

"Dad, I actually expected this to happen. There are only so many enemies in our family, but not many of them are capable of doing something like this."

"During this period, I didn't find him doing anything wrong in the factory. But in the yard, I found that he often went out. Unfortunately, I don't know what he was doing outside."

"I followed him twice, but lost him both times."

"I also asked her sister for information. The little girl was very cautious and didn't leak a word. I think it must be something bad. Maybe she is doing something illegal."

After thinking for a while, Xu Fugui shook his head and spoke steadily.

"Da Mao, we can't rush this. That guy is not a pushover. If we want to touch him, we must kill him in one blow and not give him any room to resist."

"Well, I'll ask two more experts to see if we can find out something. You have enough brains but not enough skills. If you follow him, he will easily find you. Let me do it!"

Xu Damao was a little drunk and nodded in response.

"That's fine, Dad, you can just find someone. I'll wash my face first and refresh myself. I just drank a lot of wine, and my stomach is empty."

Xu Damao staggered a little as he went into the house to wash his face. After coming out, he ran to the desk in the right corner.

This is where the kitchen helpers cut the ingredients. There are also two plates of steamed buns made from two-grain flour placed on top. Xu Damao picked up a steamed bun and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

After seeing this, Xu Fugui took a bowl of water from the dining table and handed it to Xu Damao. Fearing that he would choke, after eating two steamed buns, Xu Damao was obviously much more energetic and spoke in a low voice.

"Dad, I feel much better now that I have food in my stomach. Let that kid run wild. When I get promoted from the Propaganda Department and become a leader, you will see how I will deal with him then."

Xu Fugui stopped Xu Damao and looked around. There was no one in the corner, and the guests drinking at the table were quite far away from them and could not hear what Xu Damao said.

Xu Fugui's tense mood finally relaxed.

Xu Fugui has always been cautious and doesn't want the Xu family's secrets to be leaked out. If outsiders hear it, it will cause a lot of trouble. Xu Fugui scolded in a low voice.

"What are you talking about? Be careful with your words. There are many people in the courtyard who have ulterior motives. If they hear you, it will be bad for you."

Seeing Xu Fugui's cautious look, Xu Damao chuckled, put his arms around Xu Fugui's neck, and whispered.

"Dad, don't worry! There is no one here. I have recently contacted Director Li Huaide, and Director Li appreciates me very much."

"You told me more than once to work hard and achieve some results, and then you can use me."

Xu Fugui turned his head to look at Xu Damao, pondered for a moment, and asked in a low voice.

"Li Huaide, I don't know this person very well. Can you introduce him to me?"

Xu Damao told Xu Fugui everything about Li Huaide's situation in the past few years, and even mentioned that Li Huaide was a bit lustful and had some unclear relationships with several female workers in the factory.

Xu Fugui's eyes flashed, and when he heard about Li Huaide's situation, the corners of his mouth curled up and he opened his mouth to speak.

"Da Mao, since ancient times, money and beauty have been inseparable. If you say that Li Huaide is lustful, then he must like money very much. I have been with the Lou family for so long, and I have seen many such examples."

"If you want him to promote you, it's not enough to just achieve results. You also have to know how to behave and learn to pay tribute, you silly boy."

Xu Damao scratched his head and denied Xu Fugui's statement.

"Dad, this isn't right! I've given Director Li gifts several times, but he refused to accept them. Director Li is not that kind of person."

"Confiscated?"

Xu Fugui touched his chin, lowered his head in thought, and asked subconsciously.

"Let me hear what gift you gave him."

Xu Damao leaned on the table, recalling the scene of gift-giving and began to speak.

"I got some local specialties from the countryside and gave him a lot of them. I've given them to him several times, but Director Li never accepted them."

"boom!"

Xu Damao was hit hard on the back of his head. Before Xu Damao could react, Xu Fugui scolded him in a low voice.

"How can I have such a stupid son like you? Are local specialties considered gifts? You have to give something valuable."

Xu Damao had an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face and said in annoyance.

"Dad, I was stupid and didn't realize it. I thought Director Li was not greedy. I will give him a big gift after some time. This time, I will definitely let him promote me."

"It's okay, you're not that stupid. Don't feed him all at once, you have to feed him slowly over a long period of time so that he will remember you. Also, since you're relying on him, you must listen to him."

"What leaders hate most is people who are traitors."

Xu Fugui took the opportunity to teach Xu Damao a lesson and asked him to use his brain.

Hearing this, Xu Damao nodded repeatedly and began to fantasize. He spoke wildly.

"Dad, when I become a leader, don't worry. I will kill people like Liu Haizhong, Sha Zhu, Zhang Minghui, and others who have made enemies with our family."

"I won't let any of them go. I'll make them pay."

When the father and son were chatting enthusiastically, the guests who were drunk at the table shouted to them.

"Hey, what are you two talking about? You haven't come here for such a long time. Come over and have a drink. Today is your big day."

Hearing the guest's shout, the two men smiled bitterly and ran towards the wine table.

After the father and son left, the two children hiding behind the desk finally breathed a sigh of relief. As the old saying goes, walls have ears, and it's not said in vain.

While Xu Fugui was cautious, he only paid attention to the adults and ignored the children.

Banggeng and Yan Jiekuang heard the conversation between the father and son clearly. They were not children anymore when they were in their teens, so they understood everything they were supposed to understand.

Especially Banggeng, his little brain turned, his eyes lit up, and he talked to Yan Jiekuang.

"I have to tell Uncle Shazhu that if the Xu family wants to deal with him, Uncle Shazhu will definitely give me a reward. I have to think about what to ask Uncle Shazhu to reward me with."

Yan Jiekuang did not hesitate and spoke in a low voice.

"I have to talk to my dad. If the Xu family gets ahead of themselves, they might bully our family."

Before he finished speaking, Bang Geng quickly took out a cloth bag from his arms and put the steamed buns on the table into the bag, along with the remaining ingredients.

Yan Jiekuang was dumbfounded and asked carefully.

"Bang Geng, didn't you say we were coming over to play? Why did you sneak in?"

Banggeng rolled his eyes at Yan Jiekuang and spoke with dissatisfaction.

"Your whole family has eaten their fill, but my family didn't get any gifts, so we didn't get anything to eat. I'm still hungry!"

"What's wrong with me taking a few steamed buns from their house? The Xu family is getting married, so I just sent my blessings."
