Siheyuan: Starting from Building a Village

Hope Village Office

"Brother Zheng, I heard from Xiao'e that you are really generous. You took out 7,500 yuan at once. Where did you get the money from?"

After breakfast, Dabao and Damao went to find their respective partners, saying they were going to see a movie together. Only Liu Guozheng, Lou Xiao'e, Lao San, and Chen Xiaolan were left in the office, sitting in the living room and chatting. Chen Xiaolan naturally heard from Lou Xiao'e that Liu Guozheng brought back more than 7,000 yuan last night. Chen Xiaolan was curious and asked about it.

"Oh, by the way, if Xiaolan hadn't asked, I would have almost forgotten. Brother Zheng, where did you say the money came from?"

Liu Guozheng discovered that as long as Chen Xiaolan was around, nothing good would happen.

"Xu Fang brought it back."

As for the money issue, let's just blame Xu Fang and his team. There is no difference between Xu Fang and his team and Liu Guozheng's own.

"Where did Xu Fang get the money from? Didn't he say he had borrowed fifteen thousand last time? Now the total is nine thousand."

Chen Xiaolan seemed to want to get to the bottom of the matter, and Lou Xiao'e was also looking at Liu Guozheng, waiting for his explanation.

"You know Xu Fang, Zhang Long, and Zhao Hu and they can hunt, right?"

"Know"

“That’s the money they make from hunting.”

"Then why would they give it to you, Brother Zheng?"

"This is their retirement money. We hope the fund will cover all their retirement expenses in the future."

"is it?"

"Of course. So, the two of you should take good care of this Hope Fund. Don't be so kind. Don't let Xu Fang and his friends get old and there's no money left in the Hope Fund."

Liu Guozheng reminded Lou Xiao'e and Chen Xiaolan again.

"No, definitely not. Xiao'e and I are so smart that we will never spend all our money."

"Xiao Lan is right. We will strictly review every expenditure."

"I hope you two can keep your word. Okay, I'm going to take a look at Yard 95. Do you want to come?"

In an era without television and games, it would definitely be boring to stay in the house all the time.

"Okay, I don't have anything to do right now anyway, as long as it doesn't delay opening for business at noon."

Liu Guozheng put some candies in his pocket and took out a few boxes of cigarettes from the storage room in front of Lou Xiaoe and the others.

When the four entered the central courtyard of No. 95 Yard, they found a group of people gathered in front of the Jia family's gate, with quarrels and shouting coming one after another.

"Brother Zheng, we came at the right time. There will be something exciting to watch."

"Let's watch it."

Watching the fun is the favorite of the Xia people, especially in this era when there are almost no entertainment options. Most people rely on gossip about other people's private lives to enrich their spare time.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, your Jia Dongxu has lost his conscience. He took our money and refused to acknowledge it."

After breakfast, Yan Bugui went to work. The more Yang Ruihua thought about it, the more upset he felt. He was a very calculating person, but he had been cheated out of 250 yuan by others.

"Mrs. Yang, stop talking nonsense to your grandmother. My Dongxu is a good boy and he never borrows money from outside."

Being scolded at the door of her house, could Jia Zhang tolerate it? Of course she couldn't tolerate it. In the Siheyuan, it was always Jia Zhang who blocked other people's doors to scold, and she had never seen anyone dare to block her Jia family's door.

"Good kids can go to jail, ugh."

"You...my Dongxu was wronged by that villain Liu Guozheng."

However, Jia Zhang did not notice Liu Guozheng standing outside and started cursing.

"Brother Zheng, that shorty called you a villain."

Chen Xiaolan has always been a fan of watching the fun, no matter how big the event.

Liu Guozheng's face was filled with black lines, and he glared at Chen Xiaolan unhappily.

"Jia Zhang apologizes."

"I know your grandma..."

When she saw Liu Guozheng behind the crowd, Jia Zhang was stuck and held back the second half of the sentence.

"Yeah...sorry."

"Ms. Jia Zhang, come here, tell me, how did I wrongly accuse Jia Dongxu?"

"I.."

"I can't tell you. I'll send Jia Dongxu in again."

"Liu Guozheng, you bully people, why do you always bully our Jia family? Does our Jia family have a grudge against you?"

"Old lady, why did Jia Dongxu go in?"

"because of you."

"Really? How about we go to the Jingxi Mining District Court and ask?"

"I dont go."

"If you don't go, I'll break your legs."

"Old Jia..."

"Jia Zhang has been promoting feudal superstition in public and has refused to change despite repeated admonitions. You have sentenced him enough."

"I...I won't live any longer. I'll crash into the door of your office and die. Who will you sell your stuff to?"

"Jia Zhang, this is a threat. I can sentence you to two more years."

"Uh..."

Jia Zhang almost fainted.

"Tsk tsk tsk. This Liu Guozheng is amazing."

"You know what, he's worthy of being the one who sent Jia Dongxu in."

"How many days can Jia Zhang stay in this time?"

"No way? Can Liu Guozheng really send Jia Zhang in?"

"If he can be sent in, the Jia family's reputation will be completely ruined."

"Huh, does the Jia family have a good reputation?"

"That's right. The reputation of our compound is ruined by the Jia family, as well as those three beasts Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui."

This is a powerful move that causes group damage. With one move, the Yan family in the front yard, the Yi family and the Jia family in the middle yard, and the Liu family in the back yard were all hit.

Tan Guihua and Wu Airong went home with gloomy faces. Yang Ruihua was too embarrassed to argue with Jia Zhang anymore, so he went back to the front yard in dejection.

Jia Zhang took advantage of the chaos to run back home and slammed the door shut from inside.

Chen Xiaolan hurriedly said, "Brother Zheng, that old hag has gone back to her room."

"Just go back to your room. Why, Chen Xiaolan, are you still thinking about me kicking the old widow's door?"

"Hahaha, Brother Zheng, go and kick it, go and kick it."

"Third brother, you should take care of your wife."

"Brother Zheng, I can't control you."

"Third brother, I didn't expect that a guy like you with thick eyebrows and big eyes would be afraid of your wife."

"Brother Zheng, I'm not afraid, I respect you, I love you."

"Old Three, that's great. Who did you learn this from?"

"Brother Zheng, I learned this from you. You forgot last time."

"Okay, we can't afford to offend you two, Xiao'e, let's go."

"Hahaha"

Amid the laughter of Lou Xiao'e and Chen Xiaolan, the four of them came to the backyard.
