Siheyuan: After I moved in, the compound became a mess

Hearing the sound of the yard gate closing, Wang Dabao slowly opened his eyes.

It wasn't that he wanted to pretend to be unconscious, he just had to do it after seeing that it was Zhao Damaozi's wife who helped him home.

Wang Dabao picked up the cold water on the edge of the kang and gulped down a few big gulps. Only then did he feel his mind become clearer.

Thinking back to what Zhao Da Maozi's wife said, my goodness, can I raise my arms and shout to ascend the throne just because I marry your cousin? !

Wang Dabao didn't dare go back to the island farm to rest that night. He was really afraid that someone would come over early the next morning, and it would be difficult for him to explain why he was not at home.

Sure enough, the next morning, Wang Dabao was still in bed when he heard a noise coming from the courtyard gate.

It was Wang Tiangao who brought a bowl of millet porridge and leftover meat and vegetables from last night to Wang Dabao.

"Dabao, hurry up and eat it while it's hot."

"Fuck..."

After Wang Tiangao came in and put down the food, he was about to lift Wang Dabao's quilt, but when he saw the big black star next to the pillow, he was so shocked that he stuttered, "I... Dabao, where did you get the gun?!"

It's not that he hasn't seen guns before. He had touched a Type 54 pistol when he was in the army. Yesterday, he was patrolling with Uncle Li and others while holding the brigade's hunting rifle.

He was just surprised why Wang Dabao carried a gun with him.

"Why can't I have a gun?!"

Wang Dabao lifted the quilt as if no one was around and started to put on his clothes. "I forgot to tell you, I am also the deputy director of the police station. Do you think I can carry a gun?"

Wang Tiangao nodded continuously beside him.

After breakfast, Wang Dabao went to Wang Tiangao’s house to meet his third uncle Wang Tiemin and prepared to go back.

Originally he was planning to wander around the nearby mountains. After all, he had a good bow in his hand, and he would be itching to try it out.

But after yesterday's incident where aunts and grandmas took turns introducing him to potential partners, Wang Dabao decided to slip away first, and would go hunting and try out the bow next time he came back.

When Wang Dabao walked into Wang Tiangao's yard and saw the motorcycle, he was stunned.

The sidecar was piled with items. When I got closer, I saw vegetables such as beans, potatoes, eggs and a live old hen.

Hearing the noise, the third master Wang Tiemin came out.

"Are you full? If not, there's still some hot food in the pot."

"I'm full, Master San."

Wang Dabao took out a cigarette and lit it for Wang Tiemin, then looked at the things on the motorcycle sidecar and smiled bitterly, "Third Master, I don't need any of these in the city, why are you giving me so many!"

"I didn't give this to you myself. It was brought to you by the villagers."

Wang Tiemin laughed and said, "Just take it. It's a token of our gratitude."

Wang Dabao felt bitter because his fellow villagers were reluctant to eat the food themselves but gave it to him. Maybe they saw that he spent too much money on rice, flour, meat and other items yesterday and were afraid that he would be short of money in the days to come.

"Work hard outside so you don't have to buy anything when you come back. Save your money and don't spend it recklessly."

Wang Tiemin began to lecture him, "Don't spend money lavishly after entering the city. These vegetables are grown by the villagers themselves. Just take them if I ask you to."

Wang Tiemin didn't say much. He had watched Wang Dabao grow up since he was a child and knew that the child had his own thoughts.

After bidding farewell to Wang Tiemin and his son Wang Tiangao, Wang Dabao rode his motorcycle and left Wangjialou Village.

When he was bored on the road, he let the two puppies out again. They sang and barked along the way, making the place very joyful.

It was already noon when Wang Dabao returned the motorcycle to the steel rolling mill and rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.

Pushing his bicycle into the compound, he was already prepared for the scene of meeting Yan Bugui after turning into the hanging flower gate.

Yan Bugui had indeed been seen, but so were Sha Zhu, Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao, and Yan Jiecheng.

When Wang Dabao saw these people gathered together, he stopped immediately. When would Xu Damao be able to stay with Sha Zhu and chat for a while? It was really like a butterfly flying out of a sparrow's nest. It was so strange.

Could it be that the wind direction in this compound changed when I was away for a day? !

Wang Dabao pushed his bicycle back two steps and decided to listen to what these people were talking about.

"Xu Damao, I swear, at that time I told Banggeng that I was just going to pee on your bed. Who knew that the little bastard would steal your money." Shazhu had his arms crossed and there were bruises on his face. He looked very unhappy. The only thing that remained unchanged was that his mouth was still as hard.

"Silly Zhu, you don't have to play tricks on me. No one will believe your oath!"

Xu Damao stood beside Yan Bugui with his arms folded. "You dare to say it wasn't your idea to break into my house and do some damage? Banggeng was slamming bowls inside and even broke my bed. Didn't you hear anything from outside?"

"After all, you are the root cause of the theft, so it is not unfair for you to pay that much money. You still have the nerve to argue with Jia Dongxu."

"Okay, just say a few words."

Yan Bugui stepped forward to smooth things over, "Shazhu, it's not the Third Uncle who is criticizing you. Banggeng is still a child. You said you teamed up with him to deal with Damao, and then someone pushed the responsibility onto you. What can you do?"

"Can you say that what Jia Dongxu said is unreasonable?"

"The cause of the incident was that you instigated Bang Geng to pick the lock and sneak into Damao's house. Just like Damao said, Bang Geng was smashing things, and you were watching outside, why didn't you go in and stop him?"

Yan Bugui pounded his hands together and kept scolding Shazhu: "What does this mean? It means that you agree with Banggeng's behavior. You two are accomplices, don't you know?"

Liu Haizhong agreed with Yan Bugui's words.

"The word 'accomplice' that Old Yan used is very good. You, Sha Zhu, still bear a lot of responsibility, but you, on the other hand, are bent on clearing yourself of all charges. You refuse to give in when Old Yi says a few words to you."

"Pooh!" Sha Zhu tilted his head and spat a mouthful of phlegm on the ground.

Yan Bugui's face turned green at that moment, because this happened right in front of his home.

"Is that just a few words? He is a big shot in the courtyard. Just because Jia Dongxu is his apprentice, he is so blatantly taking sides?!"

Thinking of Yi Zhonghai's biased behavior just now, Sha Zhu was so angry that he trembled all over. He looked at Yan Bugui with a gasp, "Third Uncle, I, Sha Zhu, have been a bit of a jerk in the courtyard, but I have never cheated anyone. I came here just to borrow some money from you to pay off the debt I owe Yi Zhonghai."

Yan Bugui's face was already bad, and now it looked even uglier.

"Zhu Zi, you also know that Jie Kuang needs to go to the hospital for checkups regularly, and I really can't afford it."

After Yan Bugui finished speaking, he lowered his head and sighed, as if he was unable to help Sha Zhu, which made him feel very sorry.

Sha Zhu nodded and glanced at Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong.

He had a feud with both of them, so there was no way he would lend him money, no matter how hard he tried.

"Okay, then I'll go back first." Sha Zhu's eyelids drooped, and he turned around and walked towards the central courtyard.

At this time, Wang Dabao came out pushing his bicycle.

"Who did I just hear wanting to borrow money?"

"It's you, right? How much do you want to borrow?"
