Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

Chapter 6: Having nothing better to do.

"This won't work, that won't work either, so what do you think we should do?"

Jia Zhang was very dissatisfied. She thought that she had lived in the courtyard for so many years and had never suffered such a big loss. Her son was beaten and seriously injured, but she could do nothing about it. It would be strange for her to be happy.

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu looked at each other, and for a moment they had no good solution.

Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai thought of Sha Zhu who had come with him, and thought that more people could discuss it together, so he said, "Zhu Zi, do you have any ideas?"

"Yes, I have an idea."

Sha Zhu replied subconsciously, but his eyes were always on Qin Huairu who was busy in the kitchen.

Jia Dongxu also noticed it, and his face immediately turned black, "Silly Zhu!"

Yi Zhonghai also turned around and noticed Sha Zhu's little action, and was speechless for a moment.

You idiot, even if you have feelings for her, you shouldn't stare at her in front of her man, right? Her man is not dead yet!

As expected of Shazhu, there is no wrong nickname for him.

"Ah, what's wrong?"

Sha Zhu reluctantly withdrew his gaze and asked in confusion.

Seeing that Jia Dongxu was about to explode, Yi Zhonghai tried to smooth things over, "We are discussing how to deal with Cao Liang, the troublemaker. Zhuzi, do you have any ideas?"

"Oh, I thought it was something else, just a street thug, what's the big deal?"

Sha Zhu waved his hand nonchalantly and said casually: "That kid didn't respect you, an uncle, and even beat up Brother Dongxu. I'll find a chance to give him a beating and he'll behave himself."

Jia Dongxu rolled his eyes speechlessly and said unhappily, "Can you beat him?"

"Who are you looking down on!"

Sha Zhu got angry instantly, "I... I can't beat him head-on, can't I just knock him out?"

"Forget it."

Yi Zhonghai directly rejected it. He was worried that Sha Zhu would be beaten half to death instead of being able to hit him with a club. Cao Liang was not Xu Damao and was not that easy to deal with.

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and suddenly said, "By the way, doesn't Chen Huilan also work in the cafeteria? Zhuzi, don't you have a say in the cafeteria? You can help Chen Huilan with her responsibilities."

"Huh? Isn't this bad?"

Sha Zhu was somewhat reluctant. As a grown man, it was ok for him to target Cao Liang, but he felt it was a bit embarrassing for him to target a widow.

Jia Dongxu also felt it was not good, and once Cao Liang knew about this, he would definitely take revenge. But Yi Zhonghai was his master after all and was very good to him, so he didn't say anything.

Yi Zhonghai said: "It's just a little more burden, no need to overdo it."

If he can't make Cao Liang surrender, then he will have to take Cao Liang into consideration whenever he wants to do anything in the courtyard. Wouldn't he, as an old man, become a decoration?

This is definitely not possible.

"...Oh well!"

Thinking that Yi Zhonghai was usually nice to him, Sha Zhu hesitated for a while, but finally agreed.

...

Cao family.

Cao Liang was unaware of the plans of Yi Zhonghai and others. He was now having dinner with his family.

Only five steamed buns were made, two for Cao Liang and one for everyone else, plus a bowl of cornmeal porridge, and that was dinner.

"Mom, you work hard, I'll just eat one."

Cao Liang picked up a steamed bun and put it in Chen Huilan's bowl.

Perhaps it was because he had no relatives in his previous life, or perhaps it was the obsession left by his original body, but when Cao Liang called her "mother", there was no sense of incongruity at all, it was very natural.

Chen Huilan shook her head and put the steamed bread back into Cao Liang's bowl. "I eat in the cafeteria at noon. It's quite oily. You work hard outside, so you should eat more."

The two were trying to give in, but the two younger ones had already finished and were staring at the steamed bread in Cao Liang's bowl.

Cao Liang smiled when he saw this, picked up a steamed bread, broke it in two, and handed it to the two children, "Eat it!"

The two little ones did not eat immediately, but looked at Chen Huilan, very sensible.

Cao Liang said, "Mom, I've already eaten two at Gangzi's place, I'll just have one."

Chen Huilan nodded, and the two little ones happily grabbed the steamed bread and started eating.

Chen Huilan said, "Liangzi, no one has any surplus food now, so you can take a pound of corn flour to Gangzi someday."

"it is good."

Cao Liang did not refute, because in the end, Chen Huilan would always find reasons to convince him, which was meaningless.

Chen Huilan suddenly remembered something and said, "Liangzi, it's almost the end of the month. Bring some cornmeal back to your grandfather tomorrow."

"it is good."

...

Silent all night.

The next morning, Chen Huilan got up early and prepared breakfast.

After breakfast, Chen Huilan handed Cao Liang a bag and a dollar, and reminded him, "Liangzi, it's not peaceful outside now, be careful on the road."

Chen Huilan had no choice, she still had to go to work and Xiao Ming was still young, so the only one who could do the work was Cao Liang.

"Mom, I know."

Cao Liang nodded in agreement.

With his current physical condition, he could probably dodge even bullets, but it was always better to be careful.

"Brother, I miss grandpa and grandma too."

Cao Xiaoming and his sister came over and looked at Cao Liang eagerly. They also wanted to go back with him.

Yaya even hugged Cao Liang's thighs directly.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You still want to go to school, and Yaya wants to go to the red education class. I think you are itching for trouble."

Chen Huilan raised her hand as she spoke.

The two younger ones hurriedly let go of Cao Liang, who shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

Seeing the two children's grievances, Chen Huilan had no choice but to say, "Okay, when you have a holiday, I will take you back to my hometown to play."

The two little ones became happy then.

"Mom, I'm leaving now."

After Chen Huilan nodded, Cao Liang took the bag and went out.

"Liangzi, this."

As soon as he walked out the door, he heard someone calling him.

Turning his head, he saw two young boys walking towards him. Cao Liang asked in surprise, "Mosquito, Dongzi, why are you here?"

The one wearing glasses is called Gu Wen, and the one with rolling eyes is called Wang Dong, also his childhood friend. Together with Xiong Gang, the four of them have been very close since childhood.

Gu Wen nodded his chin towards Wang Dong, indicating that it was this guy's fault.

Wang Dong grabbed Cao Liang's hand and said anxiously: "Liangzi, brother, you have to help me this time."

Cao Liang shook off his dirty hands in disdain and said calmly, "Tell me! Who are you picking a fight with again?"

"Liangzi, how can you slander me? In your eyes, am I, Wang Dong, that kind of person?" Wang Dong shouted with a wronged look, which looked a little weird.

Gu Wen rolled his eyes, what a dramatic actor.

"Is not it?"

Cao Liang smiled and said, "But since you are fine, then fine, I have to hurry back to the countryside, so I will leave first."

Wang Dong was anxious when he heard this, "Brother, please don't! I have already made an appointment with others, and you are the only one missing."

"Didn't you say it was okay?" Cao Liang said with a smile.

"I have something to say, okay?" Wang Dong said helplessly, "It's just as you said, just tell me whether you will help or not!"

Cao Liang shook his head and sighed, "Dongzi! Have you eaten?"

Wang Dong was stunned, "Eat...eat!"

"Are you full then?"

"No."

"But I think you are too full."

Wang Dong asked Gu Wen in confusion: "Mosquito, what does Liangzi mean?"
