Siheyuan: Wang Bo's Happy Life

Banggeng treated the gangster to a meal before convincing him to take him to meet the leader.

The leader leaned on his walking stick, looked up and down at Bang Geng, whom he hadn't seen for six years, and asked curiously, "Jia Geng, you look so energetic after not seeing you for a long time. Where have you been these years?"

"Brother Hu, you are joking. Where can I go? I went to the countryside for the past few years and have been staying in the Northeast. I just came back this month and came to visit you right after that."

Looking at the grinning Bang Geng in front of him, Brother Hu nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, you still have some conscience. You came back to see me. Let's still follow the old rules. You can't tell others about the place. Go in and play."

"Don't worry, Brother Tiger!"

Sitting in front of the mahjong table, Banggeng could not hide his inner excitement. When he used his hands to build the Great Wall, he suddenly felt like he had become a general on the battlefield, ready to kill his opponent without leaving a single piece of armor.

Banggeng is indeed talented in these unorthodox ways. He can remember, count and guess cards expertly after just a few games. Most people can't beat him, and he won a lot in a short time.

"Bullshit!"

Banggeng pushed the mahjong tiles in front of him and said excitedly, "Give me money, give me money!"

Brother Hu, who was in control of the overall situation from a distance, turned his head and said to the younger brother next to him: "This kid is obviously a shady guy. Let him win for a few days, and then win back his money with interest in a few days, and then bring him into the industry."

Happy times always pass quickly. Before Banggeng had enough fun, it was already early morning. While it was still dark outside, Brother Hu told everyone to leave quickly.

Banggeng hummed a song proudly and walked slowly towards home. He calculated that he had earned more than ten yuan that night, which was more than his monthly salary at the forest farm.

If I can earn this much every day, I can become rich in a year, get married and buy a house in two years, and live an easy and comfortable life. Why should I go to work!

Banggeng didn't come home all night, and the anxious Qin Huairu didn't sleep much. When she heard someone knocking on the door, she hurried out to open the door for Banggeng.

Looking at Banggeng who looked excited, Qin Huairu asked anxiously: "Banggeng, what were you doing last night? You didn't come back all night!"

"I went to a classmate's house. We haven't seen each other for a while, so I played a little longer."

Banggeng lied casually, then lay down on his little bed in the outer room and closed his eyes.

Looking at Bang Geng who didn't care at all, Qin Huairu was anxious and angry, but Bang Geng was so big now that she couldn't control him, so she could only sigh helplessly.

The next afternoon, Qin Huairu and her family sat at the table to eat dinner. Looking at the absent-minded Bang Geng, Qin Huairu asked softly:

"Bang Geng, do you want to be a chef? If you want to learn, I will go and ask Sha Zhu to teach you how to cook."

Banggeng was imagining about killing everyone at night at this time, and he frowned when he heard Qin Huairu's words.

I have never seen Shazhu young since I was a child. This guy is always in front of the stove, smoking and burning, his face is almost as white as bacon, and even the wife he married is second-hand. I am so handsome and elegant, how can I become the second Shazhu?

"Mom, I don't want to be a cook. What's the point of hanging around the stove all day?"

Hearing Banggeng's refusal without hesitation, Qin Huairu frowned and asked, "Do you want to learn how to project a movie? If you do, I'll go ask Xu Damao to teach you."

Bang Geng laughed twice with disdain, "Mom, Xu Damao is buying tickets at the cinema entrance now. He can't even touch the machine, how can he teach me?"

Seeing Bang Geng who didn't care about anything, Qin Huairu couldn't help but raise her voice, "You don't want to do this and that, so what do you want to do? It's always good to learn a skill, which will be useful for any job in the future!"

Bang Geng got annoyed when he heard Qin Huairu nagging. He put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and said, "I'm going to play with my classmates. I won't be back tonight."

Seeing Bang Geng slamming the door and leaving, Qin Huairu became even more angry and her blood pressure soared, but she could do nothing.

Banggeng won for three consecutive nights. Just when he thought he was on top of the world and was like the God of Gamblers, he started losing money again.

Within a month, Banggeng not only lost all the money he had won, but also lost all the three hundred yuan he had earned in the forest farm.

How could Banggeng accept this? He asked Qin Huairu for money and borrowed money from Qin Jingru. Both of them could see that something was wrong with Banggeng, so they couldn't give him money and started arguing with Banggeng at home.

Qin Huairu's face turned red with anxiety. She shouted, "Bang Geng, tell me the truth. What do you want the money for? Where is the money you brought back from the countryside?"

"That's right, Bang Geng, what have you been doing recently? Why did you spend so much money? Tell your mom the truth!"

Qin Jingru on the side was also anxious. Even Xiaodang stared at her brother with resentment and stamped her feet in anxiety.

Bang Geng saw that no one was lending him money and questioning him like he was a thief, so he immediately turned his face away and said, "Forget it if you don't want to give me money, I'll go out and earn it myself!"

After saying this, Bang Geng broke free from the three women and ran away regardless of their shouts.

From then on, Banggeng stayed away from home even less, often for several days. Even when he came back, he would just quarrel with Qin Huairu and then lie down on the bed to sleep, refusing to pay any attention to her.

As the dust of the ten-year storm settled, a large number of people who were treated unfairly back then were rehabilitated, and a group of people who persecuted the masses were also brought to justice.

Liu Haizhong, who has already retired, was taken away. When he was the leader of the patrol team, he went crazy for several months and caused trouble for many people. Now they are starting to settle accounts with him.

When the public security comrades arrived at his home, Liu Haizhong was trembling and unable to stand up. Beads of sweat appeared on his pale face, and his face was full of despair.

When Liu Haizhong was escorted out of the courtyard and moved tremblingly to the gate, he turned his head to look at the courtyard where he had spent his whole life, his eyes full of reluctance and attachment, thinking that he would never be able to come back in this lifetime!

After several days of fear, Liu Haizhong was taken to the court along with a group of other prisoners.

At least Liu Haizhong didn't cause any death, and he was not the mastermind at the time. He was just a small leader, so he was only sentenced to five years.

This made Liu Haizhong, who was standing among a group of prisoners, breathe a sigh of relief. He thought he was dead during the days he was imprisoned, but he didn't expect that it was only five years. He suddenly felt that he was very lucky and had a good life, as if he had been reborn!

When Wang Bo heard the result later, he shook his head.

It's just that too many people were arrested and the sentences were not severe enough. Otherwise, Liu Haizhong should be fed peanuts because of the things he did, which destroyed so many good families.

As the year was coming to an end, the steel mill was not doing well, so they took a holiday early. Wang Bo was setting off firecrackers with the Nian family at the door of his house when he suddenly saw a woman walking in from the hanging flower gate.

Seeing Wang Bo staring at her, the woman walked over and asked with a smile: "Hello, I'm looking for Comrade He Yuzhu, is he still living here?"

"Are you Teacher Ran?"
