Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

The old deaf man saw that something was not right and quickly advised: "Let's go! There's nothing to see."

Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed. When passing by He Yuzhu, they unconsciously took a detour for fear of attracting his attention.

Although the old deaf man was the most senior at that time, he had no prestige in the courtyard, especially since she didn't have the pair of shoes. The old lady didn't hate He Daqing and his son too much, she just wanted to protect Yi Zhonghai and told him not to provoke the He family again.

If Yi Zhonghai was really ruined by He Yuzhu, she might be secretly happy in her heart, at least there would be one less person who made her uncomfortable. However, at that time, the old lady had not thought that there would be a five-guarantee household in this courtyard in the future, and the story about her giving shoes would gradually change in everyone's mouth, and even she herself could not remember clearly whether she gave two or three pairs of shoes.

As for the story of the ** shoes that became widely circulated later, it was the result of a wrong version that was transmitted at some unknown time.

Perhaps, all this is just the result of misunderstanding and misinformation.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to this place anymore, He Yuzhu didn't want to continue to tangle with Yi Zhonghai, so he simply found a stone to sit down. Seeing He Yuzhu's actions, Yi Zhonghai also felt it was inconvenient to stand, so he also found a stone to sit down.

"He Yuzhu, do you really want to do this? This will ruin your reputation." Yi Zhonghai saw that He Yuzhu looked indifferent and spoke with some anxiety.

"Haha, reputation? I haven't had a good reputation in this yard for a long time, and it doesn't matter if it's a little worse. Even if I go to the street office and make a big fuss, at most I'll be criticized and educated, but they won't arrest and sentence me, right?" He Yuzhu said lightly.

"You guy..." Yi Zhonghai was speechless after hearing this. He didn't expect that He Yuzhu had already considered all the consequences.

"Yi Zhonghai, do you think I was too impulsive? If I had waited until He Daqing ran away before taking action, it would have been perfect." He Yuzhu suddenly showed a trace of regret.

"..." Yi Zhonghai was silent for a moment, realizing that this young man also knew that doing so might not be the best option, but he still did it, which made people feel helpless and emotional.

The election in the front yard seemed much duller than that in the middle yard, mainly because most of the people living in the front yard were elderly residents and most of them had children. Therefore, when Yan Bugui proposed that the family of the elected dean must ensure the safety of their children's learning and commuting to school, it was quickly and unanimously approved.

As for the situation in the Intermediate Court, it is much more complicated.

"Zhuzi, you performed very well today!" Xu Damao's father, Lao Xu, an elder who usually does not attract much attention, patted He Yuzhu's shoulder with a lively look.

He Yuzhu smiled slightly, "Uncle Xu, I just expressed some fair opinions. People like Yi Zhonghai are really not suitable to be the master of our courtyard."

Old Xu nodded in agreement, "You are right, we do need a fair and upright leader here. Alas, Yi Zhonghai is too shrewd and calculating, he is not suitable."

Xu Damao, who was standing aside, listened to the conversation between his father and He Yuzhu, and his heart couldn't help but be touched. He used to think that He Yuzhu was just a reckless young man, but today he realized that he was actually a smart person.

"Zhu Zi, you have offended a lot of people today." Lao Xu suddenly changed the subject and reminded.

He Yuzhu smiled disapprovingly: "It's okay to offend them, but I'm not counting on them to take care of me. Uncle Xu, don't worry, I know how to handle things properly."

After hearing these words, Xu Damao couldn't help but think more highly of He Yuzhu. He used to think that he was a reckless guy, but now he found that he was very courageous.

At the same time, other residents in the yard were also talking about it:

"He Yuzhu is really in the limelight today, but he has offended many residents in the courtyard."

"Yes, especially for families with poor living conditions. They originally hoped to elect a wealthy uncle to provide them with help in their future lives, but now they have chosen a frugal Lao Xu and an unreliable Liu Haizhong. They will definitely be resentful."

"Even if they are dissatisfied, what can they do? Can they do anything to He Yuzhu? After revealing Yi Zhonghai's problems today, many people have begun to re-understand Yi Zhonghai as a person."

Having said that, He Yuzhu's actions are indeed a little hard to accept. I'm afraid he will face more challenges in this courtyard in the future.

Although these gossips were not loud, they reached He Yuzhu's ears. After listening to them, he just smiled and didn't take it to heart. He knew that these people's comments were just due to their unfulfilled expectations.

At this time, He Yuzhu already had a clear idea. He knew that the complicated situation in the courtyard was not just caused by Yi Zhonghai or Qin Huairu. Everyone here, including himself, was responsible. But he also firmly believed that as long as everyone dared to stand up and express their opinions like today, this courtyard would become better one day.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu is full of confidence in the future. He knows that the road ahead is not easy, but he is still prepared for everything. No matter how many difficulties he faces, he will continue to move forward unswervingly.

Then, He Daqing continued to explain: Even after he was elected, he had to act with caution. Casually making enemies with others will lead to being targeted, and one must be careful in what he says and does to avoid unnecessary trouble. He also reminded He Yuzhu to beware of Liu Haizhong, because offending him might lead to problems. But at the same time, he explained that as long as he did not take the initiative to offend the other party, Liu Haizhong should not act rashly. Compared with Liu Haizhong, Xiao Yan, who lives opposite the courtyard, is a more difficult character. Xiao Yan knows how to calculate people behind their backs. Therefore, it is recommended that children learn to be humble, not to make enemies with others at will, and of course, to stick to their bottom line.

He Yuzhu nodded in understanding, and said that he would keep his father's teachings in mind and work hard to grow into a person who can shoulder the responsibilities of the family.

When talking about the future, the father and son also talked about Liu Ping. He Yuzhu frankly praised her as a kind, hardworking girl who was very good to them. He Daqing also agreed with his point of view and said, "This girl is good and a reliable person." He also joked that such a woman will definitely be a good wife in the future.

When the afterglow of the setting sun had not yet completely faded, the atmosphere in the courtyard had already begun to become tense. An old lady from the neighboring house stood in front of the door and pointed excitedly, her voice piercing: "Hey! What's going on? You usually ask for help from others, eat and drink from us, but now you hide when you have problems?" These words caused a commotion around them, and the courtyard was instantly filled with noise and disputes.

He Yuzhu had just come back from outside, and when he heard the noise, his brows knitted slightly. He approached, but before he could speak, the neighbor lady saw his face and suddenly became hesitant, unable to speak clearly: "You...you're back." She then turned around and hurried away, leaving a group of neighbors who were watching the excitement looking at each other in bewilderment.

He Yuzhu shook his head and walked into the house. His father, He Daqing, was sitting at the table reading a newspaper. He put down the newspaper and asked, "What happened again?"

He Yuzhu sighed and repeated what happened in the front yard. He Daqing sneered and responded, "This Yan Bugui is really smart. It seems that he wants everyone to think that his family is living in difficulty, so that no one will disturb or make things difficult for them again."

He Yuzhu frowned and asked, "Dad, do you think he will resign?"

He Daqing shook his head and said, "No... He is the representative here now. If you want to shake his position, you have to think twice."

As the two were talking, there was another noise outside the door. This time, a shrill voice came from the backyard, cursing, "Liu Haizhong, you heartless thing. I've been eating and drinking in your house for so many years, and today you're so reluctant to buy a piece of meat when I ask you to?"

The daughter-in-law in Liu Haizhong was not a pushover either. She responded loudly, "Mom, it's not right for you to say that! When has our family ever treated you unfairly? But you can't bully people like this!"

The old lady was obviously touched and raised her voice to retort: ​​"I am so old, can't I say a few more words?"

He Daqing sighed and said, "This old lady in the backyard is really troublesome. She eats at Liu Haizhong's house every day and always makes various requests. His wife has had enough of it, but she can do nothing about it."

He Yuzhu asked in confusion: "Dad, do you think this old lady has a special relationship with Yi Zhonghai's family? Why is she so concerned about their family's affairs?"

He Daqing looked at his son meaningfully and said, "You don't understand this. Although this old lady is a headache, she is a key figure. Look at those front and back yards, which family is not closely related to Yi Zhonghai? They have already laid out this chess game, and they want to use this old lady and Yan Bugui to involve our family."

He Yuzhu was silent for a moment and then said, "Then what should we do?"

He Daqing shook his head helplessly and said, "There is nothing we can do. The position of liaison officer was originally one of the targets they were fighting for. No matter who is elected, as long as Yi Zhonghai comes back, the position will definitely be his. We can only wait and see."

As night fell quietly, the dispute in the courtyard seemed to be heating up. He Yuzhu stood in front of the window, watching the busy figures outside, and felt a deep sense of helplessness in his heart. He knew that this battle without gunpowder had just begun.

The morning sun shone through the branches and dappled onto the ground of the courtyard. He Yuzhu stood at the gate of the courtyard, holding a cigarette in his hand. He smiled and handed it to Uncle Qian, then carefully lit the cigarette for him.

"Uncle Qian, please have a cigarette." He said softly.

Uncle Qian took the cigarette, took a deep puff, and nodded with satisfaction: "Xiao He, why did you come so early today? Is there something happy?"

He Yuzhu smiled bitterly and replied, "Uncle Qian, please don't make fun of me. I came here specifically to ask you for advice."

Uncle Qian smiled and looked at He Yuzhu jokingly: "Xiaoyu, have you heard any new news? Your ears are sharper than a rabbit's."
