Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Among the onlookers, Liu Haizhong's face gradually became serious, and he stared at Yi Zhonghai fiercely, as if he wanted to eat Yi Zhonghai alive.

He unbuttoned the Fengji button, crossed his arms and said coldly: "Okay, Yi Zhonghai, if you say so, tell me, if Silly Zhu didn't steal Xu Damao's meat, then who did?"

Yi Zhonghai rolled his eyes: "This is what you should investigate as the second uncle of the courtyard. What does it have to do with me, an ordinary resident?"

"What are you talking about!" Liu Haizhong didn't expect that Yi Zhonghai would cheat. He was so angry that he was trembling with anger. However, he had no choice but to say a word.

At this time, Xu Damao felt something was wrong next to him. Yi Zhonghai obviously wanted to help Shazhu.

In the past, the reason why Sha Zhu was able to bully Xu Damao was because of Yi Zhonghai's protection.

Every time Silly Zhu beat Xu Damao up, and then when Xu Damao wanted to go to the police station to report the crime, Yi Zhonghai would stand up and use the principles to restrain Xu Damao.

Xu Damao has suffered greatly over the years, and finally after Yi Zhonghai stepped down from the position of first master, and Sha Zhu broke up with Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao was finally able to stand up and confront Sha Zhu head-on.

It hadn't even been half a day, and Yi Zhonghai actually started to help Sha Zhu again. Although Xu Damao didn't know what happened, he knew that if Yi Zhonghai was allowed to continue like this, Sha Zhu would definitely escape this time.

Materials were scarce these days, and meat was only sold in the vegetable market in the early morning. The meat was bought by Xu Damao at a high price, and it was stolen in the blink of an eye.

And now the meat thief actually wants to escape, which Xu Damao can't bear.

Xu Damao took a deep breath, rushed out and yelled at Yi Zhonghai: "You old guy, you haven't come out to play for a long time, why can't you help it! Now we are investigating the matter of Silly Zhu stealing meat. Where is your turn to interject.

I understand, you want Silly Zhu to be your son again. "

Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly darkened. He was about to argue, but Xu Damao didn't give him a chance. He turned around and looked at the residents who were watching and said loudly: "Everyone, come and see. Yi Zhonghai can't find a caregiver for the elderly. What's more?" I want Shazhu to help him take care of him in his old age. Oops, you old guy is really shameless. Silly Zhu has obviously broken up with you, but you still don’t give up."

"you"

"What am I, am I right?" Xu Damao snorted and said, "You are the one who jumped out and said that Silly Zhu didn't steal the meat, then you have to provide evidence! Otherwise, you just want to deliberately protect Silly Zhu. "

It has to be said that Xu Damao is considered a smart person in the courtyard, and he immediately found Yi Zhonghai's flaw.

Liu Haizhong also understood after hearing this, and jumped to his feet and said: 'Yes, yes, you have to find evidence for the point you made! ’

Where does Yi Zhonghai have any evidence, but it is impossible for him to just sit back and watch Si Zhu being captured.

Yi Zhonghai's eyes rolled around, and he suddenly looked at Silly Zhu and asked: "Silly Zhu, where did you buy your meat?"

"Chaoyang wet market!" Silly Zhu replied.

Yi Zhonghai asked again: "When did I buy it? Can anyone certify it for you?"

"Uncle Yi, you also know that you must buy meat in the morning these days. I got up before six o'clock yesterday morning. When I went to buy meat, and when I came back from buying meat, everyone had not gotten up yet. Here!" Silly Zhu scratched his head depressedly.

Without witnesses, it would be difficult.

Yi Zhonghai asked: "Then nothing happened when you bought meat?"

These words reminded Silly Zhu.

"If you don't tell me, I really didn't think of it. Although I got up early that morning, when I came to the meat stall, there was already a long queue. When it was my turn, only the last two people were left. It’s a pound of meat, and I will buy back all those two pounds of meat without hesitation.

At this time, an aunt came out from behind me. She said that her family was having a wedding and she hoped that I could give her the piece of meat.

Tell me, there has to be a first-come, first-served basis when shopping. Besides, that aunt looks like a fat pig, not good-looking at all. Can I let her?

So I ignored her at all, picked up the meat and left.

The aunt called me "Si Zhu". She should know me, but I can't remember which compound she is from. "

"She looks like a fat pig. This feature is very obvious!" Yi Zhonghai frowned and thought for a while, then slapped his forehead and said, "Don't the women from the Zhang family in the compound next door look like a fat pig? ? It just so happened that her family had a wedding event yesterday, and the time was right."

"Silly Zhu, let's go to the Zhang family courtyard next door to find the old woman."

Yi Zhonghai also figured it out now. As long as he found the Zhang family's mother-in-law, he could clear Si Zhu's grievances.

After this incident, Shazhu will definitely be grateful to him. Then Shazhu may be able to return to his arms and continue to be his caregiver.

When Liu Haizhong heard this, his face suddenly turned pale. He never thought that Xu Damao's meat was not stolen by Sha Zhu.

Once the Zhang family's mother-in-law becomes a witness for Silly Zhu, not only will he be embarrassed in front of everyone, but he will also be overpowered by Yi Zhonghai.

So Liu Haizhong winked at Xu Damao desperately, hoping that Xu Damao would stand up and stop Yi Zhonghai.

But what can Xu Damao do? Yi Zhonghai is now looking for witnesses. If he blocks him, Yi Zhonghai will definitely take the opportunity to open fire on him.

That old guy Yi Zhonghai was very cunning, and Xu Damao thought he was no match for him.

Seeing this, the onlookers became energetic.

"Yes, yes, let's go confront the Zhang family."

"Hey, I didn't expect that we could eat melons in the courtyard next door."

"Our courtyard is going to be lively this time."

The compound next door has no name, but most of the residents live not far from the lumber factory, so it is also called the lumber factory compound.

The lumber mill compound used to be an official residence, but it was smaller in scale, with only two courtyards and a dozen households.

Today is a day off, and it is close to lunch time, so the residents are busy working by the pool in the compound.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai leading Sha Zhu in, followed by a group of residents of the courtyard, these people thought something had happened and were stunned.

A thin middle-aged man put down the water basin and stepped forward to greet him.

Because the lumber factory compound is small in size and the residents in the compound are relatively honest, there is only one steward.

His name is Liu Xingming, and he works in the logistics department of the lumber factory. Because of his relatively high position and his decent education level, he was appointed by the street office as the steward.

The courtyard house and the lumber factory compound live next to each other. The relationship between the two compounds is not good, and the residents often quarrel over trivial matters. Not long ago, the cat of Liu's family, the owner of the lumber factory, ran into the courtyard and ate fish from Yan Bugui's family, but was discovered by Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui was so distressed at that time that he went to beat the cat with a broom. The cat ran back to the lumber factory yard with the fish in its mouth, and the old Liu family just opened the door and came out.

Facing the aggressive Yan Bugui, the old Liu family was certainly not angry. At that time, they scolded Yan Bugui for being as knowledgeable as a beast.

This made Yan Bugui very angry. The old teacher who never cursed had a big quarrel with the old Liu family. Finally, the sub-district office was alerted. Director Wang personally came forward to do the work, and the matter was finally settled.

So when Liu Xingming saw so many residents of the courtyard rushing in, his heart suddenly jumped and he shouted loudly: "Steel pillar, Erhan, hurry up, maybe something will happen!"

Gangzhu and Erhan are both workers in the lumber factory. They are responsible for carrying logs in the factory on weekdays. It is a heavy manual job, so they are both tall and strong.

This is also the reason why although the number of people in the Timber Factory Compound is small, they never suffer when they make trouble with the Siheyuan.

When the two of them heard Liu Xingming's shout, they both stood up and followed Liu Xingming to greet him.

Liu Xingming blocked the way of several people and asked with a cold face: "Yi Zhonghai, I heard that you are no longer the steward of the courtyard. What do you want to do when you come to our courtyard today!"

This is purely a matter of which pot should not be opened.

Although Yi Zhonghai was dismissed from his position as the steward of the courtyard, he never publicized it to the outside world. When facing outsiders, he often regarded himself as the steward.

Now when he heard this, his face suddenly darkened.

He scolded Liu Xingming bloody in his heart.

Of course, there is hatred between the two. The lumber factory compound and the courtyard house have a competitive relationship, and they are always rivals for the civilized compound.

According to the regulations of the sub-district office, if a compound can win the title of civilized compound five times in a row, and the steward in the compound is interested in working in the sub-district office, he can be hired as a sub-district office officer.

As an eighth-level fitter, Yi Zhonghai certainly didn't like this position, but the aunt didn't have a job. She could just work as a temporary worker at the street office.

Therefore, Yi Zhonghai was bound to win Wenming Courtyard. At that time, Wang Weidong came to the capital. Under Yi Zhonghai's high-pressure measures, the internal conflicts of the courtyard were covered up, and the courtyard performed very well to the outside world. It was selected in the selection for four consecutive years. Win.

But in the fifth year, after Liu Xingming was elected as the steward of the lumber mill compound, he began to make every effort to renovate the lumber mill compound. The lumber mill compound far surpassed the courtyard house in terms of hygiene and residents' unity.

Although Yi Zhonghai tried his best and even asked the deaf old lady to come forward and made some connections, he felt that he didn't have much chance of winning.

He did not want to continue to improve the competitiveness of the courtyard, but quietly found Liu Xingming, hoping that Liu Xingming would make concessions in the competition so that he could win.

For this reason, Yi Zhonghai also bought two bottles of wine and two pounds of meat as gifts.

Who would have thought that Liu Xingming was also a talented person. After accepting Yi Zhonghai's gift and fully agreeing to Yi Zhonghai's offer, he reported the matter to Director Wang of the sub-district office.

This kind of thing is very serious. If everyone does what Yi Zhonghai does, wouldn't the selection be meaningless?

Therefore, Director Wang of the sub-district office immediately held a meeting, severely criticized Yi Zhonghai, and canceled the courtyard's qualification for selection that year.

Yi Zhonghai simply stole the chicken but lost the rice, so from then on he hated Liu Xingming.

He wanted to punish Liu Xingming several times, but Liu Xingming was the leader of the lumber factory and was not in the same system as him. In addition, there were several strong men in the lumber factory, so Yi Zhonghai was repeatedly frustrated and had to stop his activities.

The old enemies were extremely jealous when they met.

Yi Zhonghai rolled his eyes at Liu Xingming and said, "Liu Xingming, what am I doing here, and what does it have to do with you?"

"Hey, look at what you said, I am the manager of the lumber factory. When you enter the compound, you have something to do with me." Liu Xingming said with a cold face.

"You are the boss in charge, but you can't block the way." Yi Zhonghai was not angry.

Liu Xingming snorted and said: "Under normal circumstances, I really can't block the road, but I suspect that you have unknown origins. Yi Zhonghai, you have forgotten that the steward of our courtyard was originally set up to prevent unknown people from entering. This is my job and the power given to me by the sub-district office.”

What does it mean to look for trouble when nothing happens? This is it.

The residents of the two compounds often meet each other, how could Liu Xingming not know these people.

But Yi Zhonghai had no idea.

Because he himself had used this method before, but now that someone was turning it against him, it felt really uncomfortable.

If it weren't for Silly Zhu, Yi Zhonghai would definitely turn around and leave now.

Now, I can only suppress the anger in my heart.

He looked at Liu Xingming with a sneer and said: "Comrade Xingming, the thing is like this, Xu Damao's family in our compound lost meat."

Yi Zhonghai told the story again, and then said: "So now we want to confront the old Zhang family."

Liu Xingming frowned and looked at Shazhu, then at Yi Zhonghai, and said with a smile: "Oh, Yi Zhonghai, didn't I hear that Shazhu had already broken up with you? He even changed his last name. Yes, yes, yes, before. Silly Zhu’s name is Yi Yuzhu, and now He Yuzhu, what does he have to do with you?”

This remark caused a burst of laughter, and the matter of Silly Zhu changing his last name caused a big fuss around him.

Everyone had no objection to Sha Zhu providing Yi Zhonghai with old age care. After all, it was Sha Zhu's choice.

However, Si Zhu's father is still alive. Let Si Zhu change his surname and make Si Zhu his own son. This has gone beyond the boundaries of doing things for others.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned red as he laughed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Old Liu, even if Silly Zhu is not my son, after all, I watched him grow up, and I am also his elder. Now that Silly Zhu meets When it comes to things, I can't sit back and ignore them.

Besides, although I am not the steward of the courtyard, I am still a resident of the courtyard. I cannot watch an innocent resident being bullied by others. "

When Liu Xingming heard this, he almost applauded Yi Zhonghai. He was worthy of being a steward who had managed the courtyard for more than ten years, and his speech was very good.

He took a deep look at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Since you said that, it would seem a bit unreasonable for me to stop you again. But I want to warn you, you are here to find witnesses this time. If you dare to There is trouble in the compound of our lumber factory, so don’t blame me for not being a guest."
