Siheyuan: Killing the gods against the will of heaven, causing great suffering to all living beings

Sure enough, not long after, new movements were heard in the courtyard. Xu Damao and He Yuzhu found one of their relatives, Xu Fuyin. Xu Fuyin was a powerful man. Although he did not work in the steel mill, he had complex social connections and could play a role at some critical moments. Xu Damao and He Yuzhu hoped to change the status quo with the help of Xu Fuyin, and even let Han Xiaodong be punished.

On this day, many people gathered in the courtyard. Xu Fuyin strode into the courtyard. He was tall and dressed in a well-tailored suit, looking very imposing. Xu Damao and He Yuzhu followed closely behind him, with a bit of pride on their faces.

Xu Fuyin walked to the center, looked around, and said coldly: "Everyone, I am Xu Fuyin, Xu Damao and He Yuzhu are my relatives. I heard recently that they encountered some troubles in the factory, so I came here today to understand the situation."

Han Xiaodong stood aside, staring at Xu Fuyin, and had a premonition in his heart. "Mr. Xu, welcome. What do you want to know today?"

Xu Fuyin sneered, "Han Xiaodong, I heard that you made some big moves in the factory, which embarrassed Xu Damao and He Yuzhu. I want to know, what evidence do you have to prove what big mistakes they made?"

Han Xiaodong said calmly: "Mr. Xu, I understand your concern. But Xu Damao took advantage of his position to privately send factory parts to foreigners, which is a serious violation of the law. Although He Yuzhu is just a chef on the surface, his behavior has also aroused our suspicion."

Xu Fuyin frowned, "Han Xiaodong, what you said is too vague. You know, what you did is not only unfair to my relatives, but also destroys the harmony of the entire courtyard. Do you have solid evidence?"

Han Xiaodong nodded, "Mr. Xu, we have solid evidence. This evidence has been submitted to the relevant departments of the factory, and they will handle it according to the law."

At this moment, the deaf old lady came forward tremblingly, holding a preferential card in her hand, and said excitedly: "Han Xiaodong, I know you are a good person, but Xu Damao and He Yuzhu are both honest people, they will not do anything illegal. I have a preferential card here, I hope you can let them go for my sake."

Han Xiaodong felt a complicated feeling in his heart, knowing that this preferential card represented the deaf old lady's past contributions and her expectations. He took a deep breath and said, "Deaf old lady, I understand your feelings, but the law cannot be easily violated. Xu Damao and He Yuzhu's actions have violated the law, and we cannot ignore these facts because of any personal emotions."

The deaf old lady's eyes flashed with tears and she shook her head, "Han Xiaodong, you will hurt everyone's feelings by doing this."

Han Xiaodong felt a pain in his heart, but he knew he couldn't back down. "Deaf old lady, I will do my best to protect everyone's interests, but there are some bottom lines that cannot be crossed. We must act in accordance with the law."

At this time, the deputy director also came over. He looked at Xu Fuyin and said in a serious tone: "Mr. Xu, I am the deputy director of the steel rolling mill. We have conducted a detailed investigation into the behavior of Xu Damao and He Yuzhu, and have obtained solid evidence. This is the consistent principle of our factory."

Xu Fuyin sneered, "Deputy Director, it seems that you have already made up your mind. I came here today just to give them a chance. After all, we are all neighbors in the same yard. Is there anything that cannot be discussed properly?"

The deputy factory director said firmly: "Mr. Xu, of course we hope that everyone can live in harmony, but there are some things that cannot be compromised. Laws and discipline are the bottom line of our factory. If we cannot stick to these bottom lines, the safety and stability of the entire factory will be out of the question."

Xu Fuyin's face darkened, and he turned to Xu Damao and He Yuzhu, "Did you hear that? It seems like you have quite a big problem."

Xu Damao and He Yuzhu looked pale. They had hoped that Xu Fuyin could change the situation, but now it seems that the situation is not optimistic. He Yuzhu hurriedly said, "Brother Xu, we really didn't do anything bad. We just hope that there will be a fair treatment."

Han Xiaodong looked at them with mixed feelings in his heart, but he knew that he could not waver. "Xu Damao, He Yuzhu, your actions have violated the law. We will handle it according to the law and will not change it because of any personal relationship."

Xu Fuyin said coldly: "Han Xiaodong, you must remember that everything you do today will be punished in the future."

Han Xiaodong looked directly at Xu Fuyin and said firmly: "Mr. Xu, I just hope to do the right thing. No matter what the result is, I will bear it."

The deputy factory director also stepped forward and said, "Mr. Xu, please understand our position. We will handle these matters in accordance with the law, and we hope you can understand and support us."

Xu Fuyin snorted coldly, turned and left. Xu Damao and He Yuzhu followed him, with helplessness and anger on their faces.

The deaf old lady looked at their departing backs, sighed, and said to Han Xiaodong: "Han Xiaodong, I hope you can remember that we are all neighbors in the same yard. If there is any problem, we can solve it properly and don't make it too awkward."

Han Xiaodong nodded, "Deaf old lady, I will try my best. Thank you for your understanding."

The neighbors gradually dispersed, and the courtyard returned to peace. Han Xiaodong returned home, feeling a little tired, but more determined about the future. He knew that everything he did was to uphold justice and the dignity of the law, and he would persist no matter how difficult it was.

Under the eaves of the courtyard, on a rainy afternoon, everyone gathered in Han Xiaodong's yard, the atmosphere was solemn and tense. Xu Damao and He Yuzhu looked pale, and behind them stood a uniformed policeman holding a stack of documents, with clear evidence.

Han Xiaodong stood in front of the crowd with a determined look. He had already found the subdistrict office and the police station and laid out all the evidence of Xu Damao and He Yuzhu's embezzlement of public property in front of everyone. He knew that this step had to be taken, and no matter what, he could not let the illegal behavior succeed.

Xu Damao and He Yuzhu were shocked by Han Xiaodong's actions. They didn't expect Han Xiaodong to be so decisive and directly report their crimes. Xu Damao gritted his teeth and said, "Han Xiaodong, why are you doing this? We are all from the same courtyard, why are you so cruel?"

Han Xiaodong looked at them deeply and said firmly: "Xu Damao, He Yuzhu, your actions have violated the law. I cannot condone your illegal behavior for the sake of personal feelings. I have handed the evidence to the relevant departments, and they will deal with you according to the law."

He Yuzhu couldn't help but yelled, "Han Xiaodong, you are committing this knowingly! If you really want to solve the problem, why don't you discuss it with us in private? You are blatantly framing me!"

"He Yuzhu, don't think we don't know what you're doing." The policeman behind him said, "We have sufficient evidence to prove your crimes. You can't escape the punishment of the law."

Xu Damao was furious, but he also knew that he was in a passive position. "Han Xiaodong, just wait and see, this matter will not end so easily!"

"Since you have made a mistake, you must be responsible for your actions." Han Xiaodong's voice was firm and calm. "I hope you can repent and make a new start."

The neighbors who were watching the scene were talking about the matter. Some expressed their support for Han Xiaodong, believing that his approach was correct. Others expressed their sympathy for Xu Damao and He Yuzhu, believing that Han Xiaodong's behavior was too harsh.

Yan Bugui walked up to Han Xiaodong and patted him on the shoulder. "Han Xiaodong, you did the right thing. We cannot tolerate illegal behavior because of personal feelings, otherwise the whole courtyard will be in crisis."

"Thank you for your support, Uncle Yan." Han Xiaodong smiled slightly, his gratitude was beyond words.

"There's nothing to be polite about. This is what we should do." Yan Bugui looked at Han Xiaodong deeply. "You are a good young man with a sense of justice. We support you."

At this time, Yi Zhonghai also came over, with a little worry on his face, "Han Xiaodong, you have to be careful, this is not a joke."

"Thank you for your reminder, Uncle Yi." Han Xiaodong secretly felt fortunate to have such neighbors. Their support was the source of his strength to persevere.

"We are all one family. If anything happens in the future, we must unite together." Yi Zhonghai looked deeply at the neighbors around him, "Only by uniting as one can we overcome all difficulties."

Liu Haizhong also came over. He looked at Xu Damao and He Yuzhu and sighed, "Why don't you two learn your lesson? Be a good person and do good things. Why do you do such things that hurt others?"

Xu Damao and He Yuzhu were speechless. They knew that their mistakes were irreparable and they could only accept the reality and the sanctions of the law.

While everyone was talking, a police car drove into the courtyard. After the police car stopped, several policemen got out, and one of them walked up to Han Xiaodong and handed him a document.

"Mr. Han Xiaodong, this is a court summons. Please come to the court to testify."

Han Xiaodong took the subpoena and was secretly glad that his decision was right. "Okay, I will testify according to the court's requirements."

Everyone watched the police car drive away with mixed feelings. This incident not only made them realize the seriousness of the law, but also made them cherish the unity and trust between each other even more.

A familiar sound of footsteps interrupted Han Xiaodong's thoughts. He looked up and saw Qin Huairu walking in with a basket of vegetables. Qin Huairu was a kind-hearted person in the courtyard. Although her family was ordinary, she was always willing to help others.

"Han Xiaodong, I bought some fresh vegetables today. Do you want to take some back?" Qin Huairu asked with a smile, a hint of concern in her eyes.

Han Xiaodong smiled and shook his head, "Thank you, Sister Qin, but no, I still have some dishes here."
