Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

"Xu Damao, how the hell are you talking?" Sha Zhu said dissatisfiedly.

"Shut up."

Captain Xing shouted angrily, then looked at Xu Damao and said, "Xu Damao, you said it wasn't you who did it, do you have any evidence to prove it?"

"Yan Fengyu can prove it to me..."

"Old Xu, you are a pig-head." Lin Shaowen laughed and scolded, "Qin Jingru can also prove that I can fly, do you believe it?"

Puff!

Everyone laughed.

Gu Huaiwei looked at Lin Shaowen with a rather angry look.

It's time now, and this guy is still joking.

"Old Lin, I was really framed." Xu Damao said angrily.

"I believe you, but Liu Guangfu won't believe you." Lin Shaowen spread his hands and said, "Now there are two choices, either you and Liu Guangfu go to the Joint Defense Office together to thoroughly investigate this matter... or you compensate him with a quilt."

"Lin Shaowen, there is still money?" Liu Haizhong reminded.

"Second uncle, to be honest, Liu Guangfu didn't see Xu Damao smash his glass, right? Now Xu Damao was hit by a brick, and he probably has to go to the hospital... It's not right to ask him to pay for it." Lin Shaowen sighed.

"Lin Shaowen, you are taking sides." Second aunt said unhappily.

"Well, then I don't care, okay?"

Lin Shaowen stepped aside.

Seeing this, Xu Damao immediately yelled, "Captain Xing, I am willing to go to the Joint Defense Office to investigate this matter... If it is proved that it was not me, then Liu Guangfu, you have to pay for my medical expenses."

"This..."

Liu Haizhong and Second aunt were stunned.

Liu Guangfu was also a little annoyed. In this cold winter, going to the Joint Defense Office to stay for a night? Isn't that asking for trouble?

The Joint Defense Office is not a charity organization, and it will not make a fire for you or something.

"Xu Damao, don't play tricks..." Yi Zhonghai scolded.

"Uncle, I am willing to cooperate with the investigation, is that considered playing tricks?" Xu Damao glared.

"You..."

Yi Zhonghai was speechless for a moment.

"In that case, let's all go back to the joint defense office." Captain Xing said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry."

Liu Guangfu couldn't hold it anymore and immediately said, "Xu Damao is willing to compensate me with a quilt, and I won't hold him responsible."

"You are willing, but I am not." Xu Damao snorted coldly.

"Xu Damao, don't push your luck." Liu Guangfu was also angry.

"Shut up, everyone."

Gu Huaiwei shouted, and the two of them immediately shut up.

She walked to Lin Shaowen and whispered, "Lin Shaowen, go and do Xu Damao's work and get this done. It's cold out here, don't let him get sick."

"Director Gu, don't worry." Lin Shaowen pouted, "I have no official position in the courtyard, and I came here to mediate with good intentions... but some people said I was biased, I don't care about this."

"Uncle, look at what you've done." Liu Haizhong complained.

"That's right, Lin Shaowen has made things clear..." Second Aunt also chimed in.

"You..."

Yi Zhonghai was almost pissed to death.

This bunch of beasts actually said such words.

"Lin Shaowen, look, the person in charge has said so, hurry up..." Gu Huaiwei scolded, "Everyone has to go to work tomorrow, and the weather is so cold, don't catch a cold."

"Okay, I'll give Director Gu a favor."

Lin Shaowen chuckled and approached Xu Damao and said a few words.

Xu Damao's face suddenly changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll give Lao Lin a favor today, and I'll compensate for the quilt... I'll ask Yan Fengyu to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a new set for you tomorrow, but this is my bad luck, not my fault."

"Okay."

Liu Guangfu agreed immediately, and was even a little happy.

Although this quilt was splashed with manure, it can still be used after washing, right?

Although it took a night of trouble, it's still good to get a quilt for free.

"Humph."

Xu Damao snorted coldly, and just as he was about to go back, he was stopped by Lin Shaowen.

"Old Xu, you still need to bandage your head, otherwise it will be over if it gets infected."

"Well, I have to pay for the medical expenses myself."

After Xu Damao cursed, he took out five yuan from his pocket and handed it to Lin Shaowen, "Old Lin, brothers should settle accounts clearly. My medical expenses..."

"No problem."

Lin Shaowen was about to reach out to take it, but was snatched away by Yu Haitang.

"Lin Shaowen, it's living expenses."

"Okay."

Lin Shaowen sighed and followed Xu Damao home.

He came out in less than three minutes, but found that Gu Huaiwei and Captain Xing had not left, and the people watching the excitement had not dispersed.

"Captain Xing, accompany me to Lin Shaowen's house, I have something to tell him." Gu Huaiwei whispered.

"No problem."

Captain Xing nodded with a smile.

"Hey, Director Gu, it's late at night, if you don't rest, I have to rest." Lin Shaowen said helplessly.

"Just ask you a few questions, it won't take up much of your time." Gu Huaiwei glared at him.

"Okay."

Lin Shaowen sighed and walked towards the west courtyard.

Everyone looked at his back and immediately started talking.

"Do you think Director Gu is interested in my uncle?" Yan Jiecheng said, stroking his chin.

"What you said is true. They are childhood sweethearts, so of course they are interested in him." Liu Guangqi pouted.

"You know nothing." Yan Bugui laughed and scolded, "If Director Gu really has an interest in Lin Shaowen, would he call Captain Xing to go with him? I think it's probably official business."

"I think so too. "Yi Zhonghai said in a deep voice, "Don't look at Lin Shaowen's status at home. Don't you see that Yu Haitang, a divorced woman, has suppressed him?"

"That's right, this Lin Shaowen is really useless..." Liu Haizhong said disdainfully.

...

West Wing Courtyard.

Study.

Qin Jingru poured a cup of sugar water for Captain Xing and Gu Huaiwei, and poured a cup of hot tea for Lin Shaowen, and then went out.

"Lin Shaowen, do you know who did this?" Gu Huaiwei said in a deep voice.

"Don't mention Lao Lin, I know it wasn't Xu Damao who did it." Captain Xing curled his lips.

"If I come to see, it's probably Sha Zhu who did it." Lin Shaowen shook his head and laughed.

"Why Sha Zhu?" Gu Huaiwei asked curiously.

"Captain Xing, you have handled so many things in our yard. When Xu Damao was in trouble, did Sha Zhu come out to laugh at him? But today he was particularly quiet..."

"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed." Captain Xing suddenly realized.

He has worked in Nanluoguxiang for more than ten years. Xu Damao and Sha Zhu have been fighting since they were young. Today Xu Damao is in trouble, but Sha Zhu didn't jump out to add insult to injury. It's really a bit strange.

"Today when we were having dinner..."

Lin Shaowen told him what happened in the afternoon again.

Gu Huaiwei and Captain Xing are even more certain that it was Sha Zhu who did it. Although Sha Zhu looks careless, he has a lot of tricks.
