Siheyuan: A journey of mountains and rivers

After dinner, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao sat in the yard, thinking about the next countermeasures. Xu Damao patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Yuzhu, you did a great job today. We must continue to work hard and solve Liu Guangfu's problem as soon as possible."

In the dead of night, He Yuzhu lay in bed, replaying what happened during the day in his mind. He knew that Liu Guangfu would not give up, and he had to take more proactive measures. He tossed and turned, thinking about how to completely defeat Liu Guangfu. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and He Yuzhu decided to take a more direct approach to deal with Liu Guangfu.

The next morning, He Yuzhu found Xu Damao and told him his idea. After listening to him, Xu Damao frowned and said after thinking for a moment: "Yuzhu, although this method has risks, if it succeeds, it can really solve the problem once and for all."

"I know the risk is great, but we can't just sit there and wait for death," He Yuzhu said firmly.

Therefore, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao began to plan a sophisticated plan. They decided to collect more evidence first and then find a suitable time to make Liu Guangfu's evil deeds public. They began to track Liu Guangfu's whereabouts every day, observe his daily activities, and use recording equipment to record some of his illegal behaviors.

A few days later, He Yuzhu finally found a perfect opportunity. That night, Liu Guangfu and several accomplices were drinking in a pub near the courtyard. He Yuzhu and Xu Damao quietly followed them, sat in a corner not far away, and listened carefully to their conversation.

"Brother Liu, why have you been keeping an eye on the He family recently?" asked an accomplice.

Liu Guangfu laughed and said proudly, "That kid doesn't know how to behave. I'm going to let him know how powerful I am. I've already found out that the He family has some property rights issues with their house. If I force them a little more, they'll have to move out."

He Yuzhu felt nervous when he heard this, because he knew this was a great opportunity. He exchanged glances with Xu Damao, quietly turned on the recording device, and continued to record Liu Guangfu's words and deeds.

Liu Guangfu drank a few glasses of wine and began to talk about some of his illegal acts without restraint, and also mentioned that he had some "special relationships" with people in several government departments. These words were undoubtedly fatal evidence, and He Yuzhu was secretly happy in his heart. He knew that these recordings would be the key to exposing Liu Guangfu.

Late at night, Liu Guangfu and his accomplices finally dispersed, and He Yuzhu and Xu Damao quietly followed them back to the courtyard. Along the way, He Yuzhu felt mixed emotions, both excited and nervous. He knew that if this move went well, Liu Guangfu would completely lose the threat to the He family.

The next day, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao found the lawyer friend and handed him the recording evidence. After listening to the recording, the lawyer looked solemn and said that the evidence was indeed enough to expose Liu Guangfu's illegal behavior, but he also reminded He Yuzhu to be fully prepared because Liu Guangfu had some forces behind him.

He Yuzhu nodded, and made up his mind that he was ready to face all difficulties. Next, the lawyer helped He Yuzhu to organize the evidence and reported Liu Guangfu's behavior to the relevant departments. He Yuzhu and Xu Damao continued to remain vigilant and ready to deal with Liu Guangfu's possible counterattack at any time.

A few days later, a group of government officials suddenly came to the courtyard to investigate and interrogate Liu Guangfu. Liu Guangfu obviously did not expect things to develop to this point. He turned pale and tried to defend himself in panic, but the recording evidence made it impossible for him to quibble. The investigators soon found more evidence of illegal activities and decided to deal with Liu Guangfu severely.

He Yuzhu stood in the yard, watching Liu Guangfu being taken away from a distance, with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that the struggle was not completely over, but at least Liu Guangfu's threat had been greatly reduced. He Dacheng and his mother also came out, and seeing this scene, their eyes were full of gratitude and relief.

"Yuzhu, you have really grown up." He Dacheng patted his son's shoulder, his voice choking, "Our whole family is proud of you."

He Yuzhu held his father's hand and said with a smile: "Dad, Mom, our family can finally live in peace. All this is the result of everyone's joint efforts."

However, He Yuzhu knew that there were still some forces behind Liu Guangfu, and the struggle was not completely over. He had to remain vigilant and protect his family and neighbors in the courtyard. He Yuzhu knew that he needed to work harder in the days ahead to truly restore the tranquility and harmony of this homeland.

Life in the courtyard returned to normal, and the neighbors praised He Yuzhu's brave action. He Yuzhu felt a sense of satisfaction he had never felt before. He knew that this was not only for his family, but also for the peace and tranquility of the entire courtyard.

In the following days, He Yuzhu continued to work hard in the factory, while also caring about the affairs of the courtyard. He became more closely connected with Xu Damao and other neighbors, and everyone worked together to maintain this small world. Although Liu Guangfu's shadow has not completely dissipated, He Yuzhu believes that as long as everyone unites, they will be able to overcome all difficulties.

A few days later, He Yuzhu's life seemed to have returned to normal, but he was still alert. He knew that although Liu Guangfu had been taken away, his influence might still be lurking in the courtyard. He Yuzhu decided to further consolidate his evidence, just in case.

One weekend afternoon, He Yuzhu was sorting documents at home when he heard a hurried knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Xu Damao standing at the door with a serious expression.

"Yuzhu, something bad has happened. Lou Xiao'e, an old lover of Liu Guangfu, is back, and she is asking around for you." Xu Damao said anxiously.

He Yuzhu frowned, and alarm bells immediately rang in his heart. He knew that Lou Xiao'e was an extraordinary woman, and had once been a big star in the courtyard. She came back most likely to help Liu Guangfu.

"What did Xiao'e come back for?" He Yuzhu asked calmly.

"She said she wanted to seek justice for Liu Guangfu and threatened to expose you." Xu Damao sighed, "We have to be careful."

He Yuzhu nodded and thought to himself. He knew that Lou Xiao'e would definitely find a way to cause trouble for him, so he had to be prepared in advance.

Sure enough, a few days later, Lou Xiao'e moved around the courtyard, constantly spreading rumors to the neighbors. She claimed that He Yuzhu had framed Liu Guangfu with despicable means, and even said that He Yuzhu's evidence was forged. After hearing this, the neighbors talked about it, some believed Lou Xiao'e, and some expressed support for He Yuzhu.
