Siheyuan: Lou Xiao'e, Yu Li and the Savage Woman

Liu Hongchang pushed open the door of the east wing in the backyard. The dim room was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

He suddenly felt a chill on his back...

Liu Hongchang knew very well that in this room, his uncle Liu Haizhong and his family of four were hacked to death by the guy in the west wing opposite...

In fact, Liu Hongchang didn't want to live in Courtyard No. 95, but some time ago, his elder brother Liu Yunchang got married.

This suddenly made housing at home a tight situation.

Just at this time, his cousin Liu Guangqi came to him and said that he could help him find a job and there were two bright houses for him to live in.

Liu Hongchang came along, but he didn't expect it was Courtyard No. 95.

For the sake of his work, Liu Hongchang chose to agree.

The reason why he agreed so decisively was actually to avoid someone.

That is Yang Maixiang, his good friend since childhood.

Liu Hongchang gets a headache when talking about the girl Yang Maixiang.

Because he had always regarded Yang Maixiang as a good friend and a good buddy, but this woman wanted to marry him...

She has been pestering him since he was a child, and even now that he has grown up, she still refuses to let him go.

But Liu Hongchang only had friendship towards Yang Maixiang and no other feelings at all.

So now that he had moved out and had a job, he planned to avoid Yang Maixiang.

Afterwards, Liu Hongchang did a simple cleaning in the house.

The room was fully equipped with pots, pans, tables, chairs and benches, and there were even some clothes for him to wear in the closet.

As long as he handed over 20 yuan to his cousin Liu Guangqi every month, he could live in these spacious two-room houses, and most importantly, he had a job...

So Liu Hongchang thought this deal was a good deal.

However, since it is the end of the year and the Chinese New Year is just a few days away, the steel mill will soon be closed for holiday.

So he could only go to work after the Chinese New Year, when the steel mill started to operate...

Sitting on a stool in the room, thinking leisurely, Liu Hongchang was wondering what his future life would be like.

At this moment, he suddenly saw the photo of his family hanging on the wall in his uncle's bangs.

He suddenly felt panic in his heart...

"I have to say, uncle really has the demeanor of a leader..."

Liu Hongchang exclaimed in praise.

Then he brought a stool and took down all the photos hanging on the wall.

Afterwards, Liu Hongchang put all the photos in a drawer.

Turning around and leaving the east wing and locking the door, Liu Hongchang planned to go to the street to buy some incense and candles.

The deceased was also his relative. Light two incense sticks to show respect and ask him not to come out at night...

After walking a few steps, Liu Hongchang saw the door of the west wing opened from the inside.

Then, a girl of about seventeen or eighteen came out.

Liu Hongchang didn't look at it any further.

Because he heard from his cousin Liu Guangqi that his uncle Liu Haizhong and four others were hacked to death by a man named Xu Damao who lived opposite.

Although Xu Damao is dead, Liu Hongchang doesn't want to have too much involvement with the murderer's family, not even talking to them.

At this time, the girl frowned and asked, "Who are you? Why are you in this backyard?"

Liu Hongchang still ignored him and walked towards the central courtyard.

"Thief, you must be trying to steal something from this backyard..."

The girl caught up.

Ignoring him would not work anymore, after all, he was already suspected of being a thief.

Liu Hongchang turned around and said, "Listen carefully, I am a new resident who moved into the backyard. I will live in the east wing from now on."

The girl frowned even more.

She tilted her head and looked at Liu Hongchang.

"A new resident? What's your relationship with Liu Haizhong's family?"

Liu Hongchang answered truthfully: "Liu Haizhong is my uncle, and my cousin Liu Guangqi asked me to move in..."

Upon hearing this, the girl said angrily: "There is not a single good person in your uncle's family.

The person he introduced to my brother turned out to be a woman who had been raped and was pregnant..."

The girl's name is Xu Damei, and she is Xu Damao's biological sister.

Xu Damei originally lived with her parents, but she didn't want to listen to their nagging all day long, so she moved to No. 95 Courtyard.

Liu Hongchang immediately retorted: "How can you not distinguish right from wrong, girl?

I'm not aware of the fact that my uncle introduced a girl to your brother.

But even if they introduced her, your brother only married her after he saw her and was satisfied with her.

It’s not like my uncle tied your brother up with a rope and forced him to marry that pregnant girl.

Let’s take a step back and say that even if my uncle did something wrong, your brother killed my uncle’s family of four!”

Liu Hongchang didn't expect that Xu Damao's sister would be so unreasonable.

Xu Damei continued to argue: "It was your uncle's family of four who beat my brother first..."

Ever since her brother Xu Damao died, Xu Damei and her parents have been extremely miserable.

Especially when my brother was around, life at home was pretty good.

Now that her brother is gone, Xu Damei and her parents' food standards have dropped a lot...

As she was thinking, Xu Damei bent down and picked up the half brick placed next to the door.

"What's wrong? Do you still want to hit me?" Liu Hongchang glared at him...

"Why don't you go out and ask around? I, Liu Hongchang, have never been afraid of anyone in this city..."
