Xu Damao had no mood to go out and have fun these days. He just stayed at home day after day waiting for the people in the yard to come to him to place orders.

However, no matter how long he waited, no one came to see him.

Just tonight, when Xu Damao was on his way back from peeing, he saw Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui tiptoeing towards Yi Zhonghai's room in the middle courtyard.

Xu Damao, who felt something was wrong, hid himself. After the door of the room was closed, Xu Damao secretly came to the door and eavesdropped.

"Xu Damao has been at home these days, so it's a bit inconvenient for us!"

"Yes, Xu Damao has rarely been to the yard since his divorce. What happened recently?"

"Qin Jingru is such a good girl! Xu Damao is such a bad guy, he just said no and left her."

"If you had married Guang Tian from our family, would you have ended up like this?" Liu Haizhong took a sip of wine and said indignantly.

"Hey, this can't all be blamed on Xu Damao. The couple has been childless for so many years. It's not surprising that they have come to this point."

At this point, Yi Zhonghai defended Xu Damao with a guilty conscience. In fact, he was just feeling guilty and was making excuses for himself. To be honest, the situations of these two families were somewhat similar.

It's just that Xu Damao is unaware of it at the moment. Yi Zhonghai is the one who foresaw it and let his wife take the blame for him for so many years.

"Yes, not everyone can be as loyal to his or her significant other as Lao Yi," said Yan Bugui.

Hearing Yan Bugui say this, Yi Zhonghai blushed immediately. He didn't know if it was because he drank too much or because he was embarrassed by Yan Bugui's praise. He hurriedly said, "Hey, hey, hey, it's all in the past, let's not talk about it."

However, Liu Haizhong, who was not very tactful, said inappropriately: "Qin Jingru is Qin Huairu's sister, they are all family. Big ass, she is easy to give birth to."

"Maybe the truth is that Xu Damao is not capable?"

"Back then, when this guy was in the steel mill, I heard people in the workshop say that when he was showing movies in the countryside, he had a lot of romantic debts."

"It is said that he was set up by someone and was framed once."

"But you know what to ask? In all these years, not a single widow has come to visit us?"

When Liu Haizhong said this, Yan Bugui also became interested. He did not work in the steel mill, and he had heard about Xu Damao's romantic deeds, but not in such detail.

"Why? Lao Liu, you're leaving me in suspense by leaving my words halfway."

"Have you ever thought that the reason why crops don't grow in this land is because of the seeds?" Liu Haizhong said, then picked up the wine in front of him and drank it all.

Then he continued, "Old Yi, tell me, isn't this the truth?"

Yi Zhonghai's face turned from red to black when he heard this. What the hell do you mean by this? I suspect you are implying something to me, right in front of me, without any evidence.

Yan Bugui thought about it and felt that what Liu Haizhong said made sense, so he raised his head and wanted to agree with Liu Haizhong. However, sitting opposite Yi Zhonghai, he saw that Yi Zhonghai's face was not very good at the moment.

Suddenly, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his throat. Then, he changed the subject and said, "I've already connected the TV over there."

"At first, they were reluctant to send it, until I mentioned Xu Damao, and then they felt relieved."

"This time, there are 500 TV sets. The total cost is yuan. It's the same place as last time. The money is exchanged for the goods."

"It's just that Xu Damao has been staying at home these days, so we can't let him off the hook and collect the money!"

At this point, Liu Haizhong slammed his wine glass and said, "Xu Damao is just a nobody. Don't worry, I'll treat him to a couple of drinks tomorrow night."

"Old Yan, take this opportunity to collect the payment for the goods."

"That kid can drink less than two ounces of alcohol, but he keeps bragging about three big and three small, three three equals nine. Just wait and see whether I can get him drunk tomorrow."

At this moment, Xu Damao, who was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping on the conversation, almost laughed out loud out of anger.

When did these old guys get the phone number of the group of people who were transporting the TV sets? Xu Damao thought about it carefully and immediately understood that it was when he and his group picked up the goods last time. Everyone was busy moving the TV sets, but Yan Bugui was shouting that he was too old to move them, and kept chatting with the driver.

Fortunately, I didn't go to work these few days, and I was still waiting foolishly for people to send money to my door, begging me to lead them to do business. I didn't expect that the truth would be like this in the end.

Old man, is this how you play it? Just wait and see if Master Mao fires your cannon this time.

After finding out the whole story, Xu Damao quietly went home. Fortunately, there was no toilet in the compound, so he had to go out in the middle of the night to find out the whole story.

At this moment, the lights were on in Shazhu's house in the middle courtyard. The three main rooms in the middle courtyard of the quadrangle were five or six meters high, with blue brick walls and a usable area of ​​more than 100 square meters, not the kind of public corruption. Moreover, it was in the most prosperous Nanluoguxiang in the inner city.

Fifty or sixty years later, most people who come to Beijing from the old city would not even dare to think about this kind of house.

Today, Shazhu's sister Yushui came back to visit. To be honest, if her silly brother didn't still live in this courtyard, she wouldn't want to come back even once. It really fits the saying that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled, and she will belong to someone else's family in the future.

However, there was one thing that Liu Ping'an did not understand. That was that when the deaf old lady in the backyard died, she left the three main rooms in her backyard to He Yuzhu.

To be honest, ever since Sha Zhu dreamed about his second half of life, he has hardly taken care of the deaf old lady in the backyard. It has always been Yi Zhonghai's wife who has taken care of her.

Logically speaking, this house is the most valuable property of the deaf old lady in the backyard. I don't know what valuable things the old lady left for Yi Zhonghai and his wife, which is why Yi Zhonghai didn't come out to make trouble.

When He Yuzhu was called to the backyard that day, he was also confused about the deaf old lady's dying gift. At first, he was unwilling to accept the legacy. However, the old lady died in front of the street office and everyone in the courtyard after saying this.

He Yuzhu was not given any chance to show up. In this way, the three houses in the backyard were also in the name of He Yuzhu.
