1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Xu Damao smiled and shook his head after hearing this: "This Jia Zhang is also a shrew and unreasonable. But what does this have to do with us? We just need to live our own lives."

Lou Xiao'e frowned. "That's what I said, but I always feel that there's more to it than meets the eye. Think about it, the Jia family seems to be doing well recently, and that Banggeng can even eat chicken legs. The origin of these chicken legs is very intriguing."

When Xu Damao heard this, he paused, turned to look at Lou Xiao'e, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

He put down the shovel, pulled Lou Xiao'e out of the kitchen, and sat down in the living room.

Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiao'e's cute and lovely appearance, and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch her cheek, and said with a smile: "Xiao'e, you are quite good at thinking about things. Since you are so curious, I will tell you about it. I have heard a lot of rumors about this matter in the factory."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes lit up, and she came forward curiously: "Tell me quickly, what did you hear?"

Xu Damao deliberately cleared his throat and lowered his voice to say, "You know Deputy Director Li Huaide, right? I heard that someone sent two roasted chickens to Deputy Director Li the day before yesterday. The chicken legs of the Jia family must have come from there. Besides, there is something fishy going on between Qin Huairu and Deputy Director Li."

Lou Xiao'e covered her mouth in surprise: "Ah? Really? Don't make this up."

Xu Damao raised his eyebrows and said proudly, "When have I ever lied to you? I heard that the two of them were in the office and the noise was so loud that Qin Huairu's humming and hawing could be heard by others. Many male workers in the factory were spreading the news."

Lou Xiao'e's face instantly turned red, and she said with some embarrassment: "Oh, Damao, how could you say that? This is so embarrassing."

Xu Damao hugged Lou Xiao'e in his arms and said with a smile: "Xiao'e, I just see that you are curious. It's enough for us to know it, but don't tell anyone else."

Lou Xiao'e leaned in Xu Damao's arms and nodded gently: "I know, I'm not the kind of person who talks too much. But Qin Huairu is too shameless, how could she do such a thing?"

Xu Damao patted Lou Xiao'e's back gently: "We should just listen to this kind of thing for fun. We are living a sweet life, which is better than anything else."

As he was speaking, a burning smell suddenly came from the kitchen.

Xu Damao slapped his head and said, "Oh, I was so busy chatting with you, my braised pork!" Then he quickly got up and rushed to the kitchen.

Lou Xiao'e laughed and shouted from behind: "I told you to get carried away with success, now you're done for."

The second uncle next door, Liu Haizhong, was sitting at home. After listening to the second aunt's vivid description of what Banggeng had done today, he immediately became so angry that his face turned blue.

He slammed the enamel pot in his hand hard on the table. The loud noise of the enamel pot hitting the table echoed in the silent room.

"Shame on you, really shameless! You did such a shameful thing and you still don't know how to cover it up. Our Guangfu can't even hide from Banggeng. I will definitely give him a good talk at the whole hospital meeting tonight. It's really shameful!"

After saying that, he turned to look at his younger son Liu Guangfu who was shivering in the corner, and his tone softened a little.

"Guangfu, you did the right thing today. You should stay away from Banggeng in the future. That kid is a bad boy. Don't play with him. Got it?"

Liu Guangfu lowered his head, tugging at the corner of his clothes nervously with both hands, and replied in a low voice: "Dad, I know, I always listen to you and only play with Yang Liangliang and Yan Jiekuang."

After hearing this, Liu Haizhong nodded with satisfaction: "Well, you performed very well. Dad will serve you some scrambled eggs later."

When Liu Guangfu heard this, he raised his head suddenly, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and said loudly: "Thank you, Dad! I will definitely do as you say in the future."

After dinner, Jia Zhang pulled Qin Huairu aside, her face as gloomy as the sky before a storm.

She lowered her voice and told Qin Huairu everything about Bang Geng's trouble in the courtyard and the upcoming courtyard meeting.

Qin Huairu suddenly realized what was going on. No wonder she felt so uncomfortable with the strange looks given to her by everyone when she entered the yard.

Her heart sank suddenly, as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss. Her mind was instantly in a mess, and she was anxiously thinking about how to deal with the situation.

At this time, Li Weiguo, who had just returned to the east wing, folded his arms and quietly told Li Weimin about the meeting of the whole hospital that would be held in a while.

Li Weiguo participated in the family affairs, grudges and disputes in this courtyard with the mentality of watching the fun.

In his opinion, this is like a real-life drama. Although it is trivial and complicated, it is also interesting in its own way, allowing him to find some fun in this dull life.

"Wei Min, tell Uncle Xin Chuang later that we should go and join in the fun today!"

"Okay, I'll go right away!" After saying that, Li Weimin turned around and went out to the back house to find Li Xinchuang.

Li Weiguo thought to himself, "Interpersonal relationships in the Siheyuan are complicated. A small matter can make the whole courtyard know about it. I wonder what kind of exciting plot will be staged in today's play."

To be honest, Li Weiguo is still a little bit expectant now.

Soon, someone came to notify everyone to hold a general meeting in the front yard.

As the news spread, residents of the courtyard house came out of their houses and gathered in the front yard.

Yan Bugui's family of six walked out of the house in an orderly manner.

Yan Bugui straightened his back, cleared his throat, and sat in a more conspicuous position among the crowd, his eyes revealing a self-righteous majesty.

The three aunts were talking in low voices with the neighbors, nodding from time to time.

Yan Jiekuang followed behind with a hint of anticipation and excitement on his face.

He knew that he was one of the "protagonists" of today's conference, and was wondering how he could get a satisfactory result.

The two brothers Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang stood side by side, whispering their views on the matter.

The youngest daughter of the Yan family, Yan Jiedi, looked around curiously and pulled at her mother's clothes.

Li Weiguo, Li Weimin and their cousin Li Xinchuang stood together.

Li Weimin was a little excited. He whispered to Li Weiguo, "Brother, there have been a lot of things going on in the Jia family recently. I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with the situation today."

Li Weiguo nodded slightly, looking at the crowd with deep eyes, thinking in his heart: "This Jia family is always restless, but it is precisely because of this that this courtyard is not too dull."

Uncle Li Xinchuang stroked his chin and said softly, "I'm afraid the Jia family is to blame for this matter. It depends on how the three uncles deal with it."

Sha Zhu’s family of five also arrived.

Sha Zhu walked with his hands in his pockets, swaggering, humming an unknown tune, looking as if the fall of the sky had nothing to do with him.

His wife Chen Lanxiang followed behind him, holding a palm-leaf fan in her hand and shaking her head helplessly.

He Daqing held Sha Zhu's son in his arms. The little guy twisted restlessly in his arms, but He Daqing couldn't stop smiling and kept muttering, "Hey, this kid is just like his dad when he was a child. So smart!"

He Yushui walked quietly and greeted the neighbors next to her with a smile.

When he arrived at the front yard, Sha Zhu found a pillar to lean against, looked at everyone with a smile, and waited for the show to begin.
