Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1498: When you succeed, you become rampant

The car slowly left the machinery factory. There was thick snow on the road, which made a crunching sound!

After passing the alley entrance, Yang Xiaotao parked the car, got out of the car and walked towards the house!

This is the first time Yang Xiaotao has returned to the yard since what happened to Lao Yang last time.

Ran Qiuye didn't come back before, and all the children were at Ran's house.

I don’t know what happened today, but Ran Qiuye said that we haven’t gotten together for a long time and wanted to call Ran’s father and mother over to have a meal together.

Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment and then agreed.

He knew that maybe Ran Qiuye had noticed something.

The gate of the courtyard is closed, usually not so early.

crunch
Yang Xiaotao opened the door and walked in.

Instantly, I felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the yard.

Deserted, decadent.

It's like being sick, without the energy of the past.

If it were before, no matter how cold the weather was, you would still see people at the door and even children playing in the yard.

But now, let alone children, not even adults can be seen.

Every door was closed tightly, and the sounds in the house were muted.

Passing by the door of Yan's house, Yan Fugui heard the movement at the door. He lay on the window and saw Yang Xiaotao, and wanted to say hello.

As a result, the voice of the third aunt came from the room, and the figure disappeared quickly in a flash.

So did the people in the other rooms.

When Yang Xiaotao saw this, he pretended not to see it.

People know how to avoid advantages and disadvantages, especially in the current situation. What the people in the courtyard saw was that Yang Xiaotao was weak!

Some people even reported that Yang Xiaotao was going to be in trouble!
As Yang Xiaotao kept a low profile and some people in the courtyard became noisy, this view became more and more recognized.

Otherwise, would he not come back for so long?
Otherwise, is there any movement in the machinery factory?

Otherwise, how could Xu Damao be so rampant?

But they didn't know clearly that although Yang Xiaotao kept a low profile, he knew everything about what was going on in the courtyard.

He even knew that Xu Damao and Qin Huairu got involved when they met.

However, Yang Xiaotao did not make any sound or take any action.

All he had to do was pay attention silently and wait quietly.

When the right time comes, it's time to prescribe medicine to cure the disease.

Severe cases require strong medication.

The carrion must be eradicated!

Even if it takes innocent flesh and blood!
After passing the Weeping Flower Gate, Yang Xiaotao came to the middle courtyard.

I saw several children playing together in my yard.

"Tao...Brother Tao!"

Zhou Kui, who was looking at the child, saw Yang Xiaotao and shouted in surprise.

Duanwu, who was playing in the snow with Xiao Yu, immediately ran over with his footsteps.

"dad…"

Yang Xiaotao picked up his son and held him in his arms.

"Dad, I miss you!"

Yang Xiaotao patted the snow on his son's hat and said with a smile, "Dad misses you too!"

Speaking, he came to Zhou Kui's side.

"Brother Tao!"

Zhou Kui's slightly excited and worried expression was noticed by Yang Xiaotao.

During this period, Yang Xiaotao also worked in the factory and tried to reduce his presence as much as possible.

Lou Xiaoe would always help convey anything, or just make a phone call.

Not only him, but also several senior executives of the machinery factory, as well as Ding Xiang, military manager of the branch, and Zhiyong, a few others!
Even Wang Fache, Wenwei and others were warned by Yang Xiaotao to work honestly and not to get involved in other things.

This may have been a common behavior in the past, but at this time, it made the workers feel bad.

Zhou Kui could naturally feel that many workers around him were spreading various opinions and conspiracy theories in private.

"fine!"

Yang Xiaotao patted Zhou Kui on the shoulder and gave him a reassuring look.

Zhou Kui nodded vigorously. In his impression, Brother Tao could do whatever he said.

Since he said it was okay, it must be okay.

This is what the simple-minded Zhou Kui thinks.

She was holding her daughter who ran over, smiling very happily.

"Xiao Tao!"

Not far away, Wang Dashan walked out of the house, with Wang Jun supporting him!

The usually strong man now looked decadent.

"Brother Tao."

The two of them had just taken two steps when Yang Xiaotao came forward with the child in his arms.

"I…"

Seeing Yang Xiaotao, Wang Dashan felt extremely aggrieved.

Because of what happened last time, not only was he sent out to educate him, but he was also examined in the slaughterhouse.

He gritted his teeth and endured this humiliating thing, but now looking at Yang Xiaotao, he wanted to ask, what is going on in this world!
"Uncle Dashan!"

"Auntie, how are you?"

Yang Xiaotao held Wang Dashan's arm and asked about the situation.

Wang Dashan lowered his head and said nothing, but Wang Jun gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Tao, my mother was so angry that she was lying on the bed. She was just sent to the hospital yesterday."

"The doctor said it's a disease caused by anger!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, then looked at the people coming out around him, and then focused on Wang Dashan.

"Uncle Dashan, do you believe me?"

Wang Dashan raised his head suddenly, then widened his eyes, "Believe!"

"Trust me and live well!"

"Only by living can you have the last laugh!"

"Understand?"

Wang Dashan took a deep breath and nodded vigorously.

"Understand!"

Yang Xiaotao smiled, patted Wang Dashan's arm, and then said to Wang Jun, "Xiaojun, help your father go back. Also, watch your father, your brother and the others."

"It's time to eat, it's time to sleep, and tell my aunt that if you can't get used to being in the hospital, come back!"

Wang Jun's eyes widened after hearing this, and then he nodded heavily.

Yang Xiaotao looked back and saw Xiao Liu and others walking out of the house. These were all people with whom they usually had good relations.

Yang Xiaotao didn't say much, just nodded to everyone, and then walked home.

But when everyone saw Yang Xiaotao's confident look, they immediately felt confident.

Hearing the noise in the room, Ran Hongbing ran out immediately, followed by Ran Xinrui and Ran Qiuye.

"came back!"

"came back!"

Ran Qiuye looked at Yang Xiaotao with tenderness on his face.

When everyone entered the room, Ran's father was sitting with Lao Dao at the table.

"Mom and Dad!" Yang Xiaotao said hello, took off his coat and sat at the table, asking softly.

Ran's father saw Yang Xiaotao and nodded with satisfaction.

"What have you been up to lately?"

Yang Xiaotao poured water for Ran and his father, and Ran's father asked.

"You don't know, it's a machine tool!"

Yang Xiaotao smiled, then looked at the old Taoist, "If you don't believe me, ask the old Taoist."

The old man stroked his beard and smiled, "Why are you asking me? I'm not in the machinery factory."

"I would also like to ask you, when are you going to the research institute? You have left me to be the boss, and I will be the one doing the co-writing!"

Yang Xiaotao chuckled after hearing this, "It's okay if I straighten you out."

"Go away, old man, I still want to enjoy a happy life."

Several people were chatting and laughing, waiting for the food to be served.

Jia family.

Qin Huairu had just brought food to Jia Zhang. The old Qian woman got up to go to the toilet yesterday, but when she came back she caught a cold and said she couldn't get out of bed.

I have no choice but to come over and serve.

"Take the medicine and go to bed early. I'll go back and look after the child first."

As Qin Huairu spoke, Mrs. Jia Zhang screamed, "Huairu, do you smell the smell of meat?"

"Why do I smell that this courtyard is filled with meat?"

Qin Huairu glanced angrily, "Are you greedy? Your nose is stuffed with snot, but you can still smell it?"

Mrs. Jia Zhang was not embarrassed and kept talking about eating meat.

Qin Huairu snorted coldly, "If you want to eat it, go to the Yang family and ask for it yourself. See if they give it to you."

After saying that, he turned around and went out.

Jia Zhang cursed loudly and looked out the window.

A look of ferocity appeared on her face. As long as something happened to the Yang family, her headache would feel lighter.

"Xu Damao, this bad guy, finally did something!"

After going out, Qin Huairu glanced in the direction of Yang's house. The gray smoke from the chimney quickly dissipated among the snowflakes, but it was extremely lively.

Thinking of what Xu Damao told him, Qin Huairu sneered, "Be proud, after tonight, you will suffer it!"

Back home, Shazhu was sitting at the table rubbing his thighs, and behind him Xiaodang was guarding the pot on the stove.

The eldest mother is sitting in the room, and little Sophora japonica is sitting beside her, leaning against her eldest mother.

"Let's eat! What are you doing standing around!"

Qin Huairu came in and saw that several people were silent, so she hurriedly spoke.

Silly Zhu curled his lips, "Huai Ru, do you really listen to Xu Damao?"

Qin Huairu frowned, and then said impatiently, "Didn't I say this several times?"

"But that's Xu Damao. He's full of bad intentions. He's looking for a job for you. That's not a weasel giving New Year's greetings to a chicken. He's not doing well!"

Silly Zhu stood up reluctantly.

"I don't care if he is a weasel or not. Anyway, with a job, our family will have a stable source of income. By then I will have an identity in the city, and Bangge may be able to come back."

Qin Huairu said nonchalantly, as for what Sha Zhu was worried about, what was she afraid of?

I never gave less in the past.

"you…"

Silly Zhu was furious, but he thought of his identity, and finally sat helplessly at the table and sulked.

"OK OK!"

The eldest mother came out to smooth things over, "Zhuzi, Huairu is also here for this family."

"Besides, if Xu Damao has evil thoughts, you will still be here!"

One sentence made Silly Zhu wake up from a dream.

"You're right. If Xu Damao dares to mess around, I'll beat the shit out of him!"

After Si Zhu finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room relaxed a lot.

Qin Huairu was about to serve the meal, "Zhuzhu, have you found Liu Lan?"

Silly Zhu shook his head, "No."

"People are living a good life now, so why do they have to drag down this muddy water?"

"Hey, why doesn't it make sense to you? Is this muddy water? This is justice for the people!"

"When we overturn the mountain in the courtyard, we don't have to look at other people's eyes to live our lives. Why don't you understand?"

Qin Huairu said earnestly, but Shazhu still didn't take it seriously.

"I just feel that Xu Damao is unreliable and nothing good will happen to him."

Qin Huairu was a little impatient after hearing this, and wanted to say something to Silly Zhu, but she didn't bother to say more because she thought that this guy had a natural incompatibility with Xu Damao.

"Forget it, if you don't go, I'll go tomorrow."

……

backyard.

Xu Damao was sitting at the table, drinking wine with pig ears, looking at ease.

Qin Huairu was still frying eggs on the stove, and the room was warm.

Ever since I became an investigator and put on this clothes, my life has changed drastically.

Not to mention that he rectified a few "stubborn" people and established his prestige in this courtyard. When the superiors heard about it, they even praised him and asked him to discover more comrades and contribute to the revolutionary cause.

Just relying on this, he received a lot of filial piety.

More importantly, now he has the capital to compete with Yang Xiaotao.

He, Xu Damao, has never felt inferior to Yang Xiaotao.

If he had the same connections and was in the same position, Xu Damao would definitely do better than Yang Xiaotao based on his ability.

It's just that I thought so before. All he lacked was an opportunity.

And now, his chance has come.

His chance to perform, his chance to take advantage of Yang Xiaotao, is here!
"Da Mao!"

Qin Jingru came over with a plate of scrambled eggs and said with a smile.

"What's up? Sit down and eat together. Don't starve my son."

Qin Jingru sat down with a smile, her face very humble.

"Da Mao, you really arranged work for my sister!"

Xu Damao picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp, "That's necessary. After all, she has helped us."

But in my heart, I was recalling the taste of Qin Huairu.

Although I didn’t have much time, it was a different kind of awakening.

Especially when I think of Silly Pillar, it's exciting.

"Humph!"

"You gave her the good stuff, what about me? I can work after I give birth to the baby."

Qin Jingru said coquettishly, and Xu Damao clicked his tongue twice, "You, you, you are really stupid if you say you are stupid."

"Can I still forget you?"

"Da Mao~"

Qin Jingru shook Xu Damao's arm in annoyance.

"You know, I know, I've already taken care of the heating plant, and I've left a clerk position for you. You can go there after the baby is born!"

"Really? Damao, you are so good to me!"

Baji
Xu Damao touched the marks on his face and smiled proudly, and even more boldly noticed in his heart.
