Siheyuan: Dongfang Bubai is in his arms, and all the beasts are eliminated

However, things were not that simple. Although the rules were set, Zhang Daqiang still did what he wanted and ignored them. Yang Limin tried to persuade him several times but to no avail, and he gradually became angry. He decided to take some tougher measures to solve the problem.

One night, Yang Limin quietly came to Zhang Daqiang's door and knocked. Zhang Daqiang opened the door and saw that it was Yang Limin. He said impatiently: "What are you doing here again?"

Yang Limin said coldly: "Zhang Daqiang, I am not here to persuade you today, but to tell you that if you don't follow the rules, we will take measures."

Zhang Daqiang laughed: "What can you do to me? I want to see what measures you can take."

Yang Limin said nothing more and turned to leave Zhang Daqiang's house. He knew that in order to make Zhang Daqiang understand the seriousness of the matter, he had to take action.

The next morning, Yang Limin called together several representatives from the courtyard to discuss countermeasures. After some discussion, everyone decided to temporarily stop the water and electricity supply to Zhang Daqiang as a warning. Zhang Daqiang didn't take it seriously at first, but when he found that there was really no water and electricity at home, he finally panicked. He ran to Yang Limin's house and said angrily: "Yang Limin, what do you mean by this?"

Yang Limin said calmly: "This is just a warning. If you don't follow the rules again, we will take more severe measures."

Zhang Daqiang finally realized the seriousness of the matter, lowered his head and said: "I know I was wrong, I will abide by the rules in the future."

Seeing this, Yang Limin softened his tone: "Zhang Daqiang, we are not targeting you personally, but we hope that everyone can live in harmony. As long as you abide by the rules, everyone will respect you."

Zhang Daqiang nodded and turned away. Yang Limin looked at his back and felt relieved. He knew that the struggle was far from over, but at least he had taken a successful step.

In the following days, the atmosphere in the courtyard gradually improved. Although conflicts still existed, with the efforts of Yang Limin and several representatives, everyone gradually learned to respect each other.

Lou Xiao'e tells Qin Jingru about Yang Limin's situation

In the courtyard of the quadrangle, the sun shines through the lush leaves, casting a mottled light and shadow. Lou Xiao'e sits on a wooden chair, holding a cup of tea in her hand, with a warm smile on her face. She looks up at Qin Jingru opposite her, takes a deep breath, and seems to be thinking about how to speak.

"Jingru, you've seen what happened in the yard recently." Lou Xiao'e said softly, with a hint of worry in her tone.

Qin Jingru nodded, her eyes revealing curiosity: "Yes, Sister Xiao'e, Yang Limin seems to be very busy recently, and there are more conflicts in the courtyard. Is he okay?"

Lou Xiao'e sighed, put the teacup on the table, crossed her hands on her knees, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes: "Limin has been very hard during this period. He is a responsible person and always wants to handle things in the yard. However, some things are not something he can solve alone."

Qin Jingru frowned slightly and asked with concern: "Sister Xiao'e, please tell me the details. I always think Yang Limin is a very reliable person, but there are so many conflicts in the courtyard. How can he handle it alone?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded and began to talk about Yang Limin's situation: "Limin grew up in this courtyard and has a deep affection for it. After his father passed away, he took over the management of the courtyard. However, the residents in this courtyard have different personalities and conflicts. Especially Zhang Daqiang, he is always causing trouble and causing a lot of trouble for Limin."

Qin Jingru frowned, thought for a moment and said, "I've heard of that scoundrel Zhang Daqiang, and he's really a tough guy. How should Yang Limin deal with him?"

Lou Xiao'e shook her head slightly and said in a low voice: "Limin always tries to solve problems in a peaceful way. He doesn't like to use tough measures. But sometimes, peaceful means cannot solve all problems. A few days ago, Limin and several representatives discussed and temporarily stopped the water and electricity supply to Zhang Daqiang. Although Zhang Daqiang finally bowed his head, Limin was very uneasy. He didn't want things to become so stiff."

Qin Jingru sighed and said, "It's not easy for Limin. He has to maintain the order of the courtyard and consider everyone's feelings. He is really amazing."

Lou Xiao'e smiled with relief and continued, "Yes, although Limin sometimes seems a little strict, he is kind-hearted. He hopes that everyone in the courtyard can live in harmony and lead a peaceful life. In fact, he also has a lot of troubles and pressures, but he just doesn't want others to see them."

Qin Jingru was silent for a moment, as if she was thinking about something. Then she raised her head, looked at Lou Xiao'e, and said firmly: "Sister Xiao'e, I understand. Since Limin works so hard, we should also try our best to help him. I will pay more attention to the affairs in the yard, try to reduce conflicts, and let Limin worry less."

Lou Xiao'e smiled gratefully, gently held Qin Jingru's hand, and said softly: "Jingru, thank you. Limin is so lucky to have a friend like you. I believe that as long as we all unite, life in the courtyard will get better and better."

At this time, a burst of laughter came from afar. Several children were chasing and playing in the yard. The sun shone on them, which seemed particularly warm. Lou Xiao'e and Qin Jingru smiled at each other, as if they saw a beautiful hope for the future. Although life in the yard is not easy, as long as everyone works together, they can always usher in a harmonious and peaceful day.

Yang Limin came out of the room and saw the two talking. He walked over with a smile and said, "Xiao'e, Jingru, what are you talking about?"

Lou Xiao'e responded with a smile: "We are talking about you, Limin. Jingru said that she would help you pay more attention to the things in the yard so that you don't have to worry about it."

Yang Limin listened and nodded gratefully: "Thank you for your concern. Things in the yard are indeed a bit complicated, but as long as we work together, we can definitely solve it."

Qin Jingru smiled and said, "Limin, we are all family. If there are any difficulties, we will face them together. You don't have to carry it alone, we are here for you."

Yang Limin felt warm in his heart and nodded: "Thank you, I feel more at ease with your support. Let's work together to make life in the courtyard better and better."

In this ancient courtyard, although conflicts continue, everyone's hearts are slowly getting closer. As Lou Xiao'e said, as long as we are united, we can always usher in a harmonious and peaceful day. Yang Limin looked at the courtyard in front of him, his heart full of hope and confidence.
