Siheyuan: Eastern Qigong Master

"Are you stupid? Why didn't you fight back when they hit you?" Ning Xiaoming was very disappointed with the skinny monkey.

It's embarrassing to tell others that he is the apprentice of a coward.

"Are you Master Yi?" The old lady looked at Ning Xiaoming and asked in surprise.

Ning Xiaoming nodded.

"They two are Xiao Hou's parents, and those six are cousins, all beasts." The old lady said with tears in her eyes.

Ning Xiaoming looked at the skinny monkey.

The skinny monkey nodded.

"Why did your parents treat you so cruelly? What did you do that was so outrageous and rebellious that it angered God and man?" Ning Xiaoming was extremely confused.

"Xiao Hou was hit on the head by his parents and became stupid. Oh! What a sin! Why did I give birth to such a beast." The old lady pointed at Skinny Monkey's father and cried and cursed!

Ning Xiaoming looked at Shouhou's relatives with a cold gaze.

Skinny Monkey's mother said sternly.

"Mind your own business, beat me up!"

Skinny Monkey's father immediately rushed forward with everyone.

They all held wooden sticks and hit Ning Xiaoming and Shouhou.

“Bang bang!”

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

One by one, they were knocked away by Ning Xiaoming's punch, letting out shrill screams.

"If you are right, I will teach Skinny Monkey a lesson. If you are not right and want to bully my apprentice, you will have to bear my wrath." Ning Xiaoming said sternly.

"Who do you think you are? I'm going to beat you to death." The skinny monkey's mother looked at Ning Xiaoming with hatred, but did not dare to approach. Instead, she took a few steps back.

"Brother, if you kneel down and admit your mistake, maybe mom and dad will forgive you!" A 1.8-meter-tall young man got up, endured the severe pain, and said earnestly.

It seems like he really cares about the skinny guy.

"Family disgrace should not be made public, but I cannot let my grandson suffer injustice. I will tell you all about it today and ask for your opinions," the old lady said angrily.

"What nonsense are you talking about, you old man?" Skinny Monkey's father got up and said sternly.

Crack! Crack!

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Ning Xiaoming suddenly appeared next to Shouhou's father and slapped him wildly.

Skinny Monkey's father, with blood and teeth spitting out, looked at Ning Xiaoming in horror.

"Whoever dares to make trouble will be beaten to a pulp." Ning Xiaoming said coldly.

The skinny monkey's mother was so scared that she took several steps back.

Skinny Monkey's brother and cousin got up and took a few steps back, not daring to make a sound for fear of being slapped.

"Mother-in-law, you said, today I will do justice for you." Ning Xiaoming said softly to the old lady.

The old lady choked with sobs as she spoke incessantly.

Skinny Monkey’s grandfather was a royal craftsman who specialized in carving. The exquisite carvings in the palace were all the work of these craftsmen.

He has a skill and his family is well off.

The old lady had no children in her life. More than ten years ago, she saw a baby boy and adopted him.

Skinny Monkey's grandfather was still alive at the time and did not agree to take Skinny Monkey in.

The couple often quarreled.

When Shouhou was five years old, his adoptive father spoke for him in order to make him recognize him as his father.

Under pressure, the old lady had to agree.

In name, he is the adoptive father, but in reality he wants Skinny Monkey to work like a slave for them.

Not only did they not give the skinny monkey a single grain of food, they also often claimed to be the skinny monkey's parents and snatched food from the skinny monkey and the old grandmother.

They also asked Skinny Monkey to help them with housework and serve them.

The old lady was also a very smart person. She seized a recruitment opportunity and let Shouhou work at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

Today is the 15th, and it’s time for the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill to pay salaries.

When Shouhou's adoptive parents found out that it was time to get his salary, they demanded that he hand over his job, otherwise they would beat him to death.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but sigh.

They pointed fingers and scolded Skinny Monkey's parents.

"Shou Hou, we have worked hard to raise you for more than ten years. It is unjust that you are not filial to us. If you don't hand over your salary, I will go to your unit to make trouble tomorrow." Shou Hou's adoptive mother said sternly.

Ning Xiaoming sneered. He didn't expect Shouhou's adoptive parents to be so shameless.

Skinny Monkey doesn't owe them anything, they just owe Skinny Monkey.

"Please move aside." A loud and clear voice sounded.

Everyone quickly made way.

Ning Xiaoming looked over and showed a surprised expression.

"Xiaoming, why are you here?" Zhang Jun was surprised when he saw that it was Ning Xiaoming.

Ning Xiaoming walked over and told Zhang Jun about the skinny monkey.

Zhang Jun and a group of colleagues were all furious when they heard about Shouhou's situation.

"Take them all away."

"What are you doing?" the skinny monkey's adoptive mother said in panic.

"Take him away. If anyone resists, kill him without mercy!" Zhang Jun was also angry.

"A bunch of beasts, they should go to target practice!"

"Kill these beasts." The crowd was furious.

"This bunch of beasts, if they don't die it's a waste of food, beat them up!"

There are many people who are brave enough to do what is right these days.

Many people are ready to take action!

The adoptive parents of Shouhou originally wanted to resist, but when they saw the crowd preparing to fight, they were frightened and their faces turned pale. They obediently followed the police and left.

"Public security comrades, you can't arrest them, otherwise we, grandma and granddaughter, will have no place to live." The old lady said in panic.

Ning Xiaoming and Zhang Jun immediately understood what the old lady meant.

After all, the old lady has no children and cannot inherit the family inheritance.

Skinny Monkey was adopted, so he is naturally an outsider.

The skinny monkey's adoptive father was born to the craftsman's wife.

The old lady was the craftsman's concubine.

Today is the day when the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill pays wages.

But Shouhou and Ning Xiaoming went hunting in the suburbs and did not receive any wages.

He was beaten by his adoptive parents and their men, so he fled here carrying his grandmother on her back.

The purpose is to escape to the unit.

If it were in the past, the skinny monkey would not dare to run away because there was no place for him to stay.

It’s different now. After all, Shouhou has a backer and a very powerful master.

He is the deputy director at such a young age.

"Mother-in-law, you can live in my house for a while! They are a group of vampires. If you live with them, you and Skinny Monkey will suffer." Ning Xiaoming said softly.

"Okay! I know a little about sewing. When I was young, I was a nun in the palace. As long as I can sew, I can definitely support myself. Can I owe the rent?"

The old lady was very smart. She first told Ning Xiaoming about her expertise. Living in Ning Xiaoming's house would not be an advantage for nothing. They would pay rent, but just owe it first.

Skinny Monkey is an apprentice, earning 18 yuan a month.

Once you leave your original home, you have to buy everything and there are many places to spend money!

Eighteen dollars was far from enough for them to move, so they had to owe the rent.

"Shou Hou is my apprentice, how can he ask for rent? Mother-in-law, if you don't want to take advantage, just help us cook. My home is not far from here, come and have a look!"

"Good boy! Thank you!" The old lady looked grateful.

"Brother, are you free?" Ning Xiaoming asked Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun grinned.

"I was off work, but I heard there was a fight here, so I rushed over. I just happened to be free, what can I do for you?"

"To welcome my mother-in-law, drink two cups."

"Okay!" Zhang Jun has been busy until now. If he hadn't rushed over after receiving a report of a case, he would have been off work long ago.
