Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1780 Ran Qiuye VS Yu Li
In the evening, in the courtyard.

Yang Xiaotao walked back slowly carrying a watermelon. People in the yard looked at him and greeted him, whispering something.

In the house, Ran Qiuye had already returned with the children and was cooking.

However, the yard was filled with groups of three or five people, each chatting about what they had heard today.

"Brother Tao, are you okay today?"

When Liu Yuhua saw Yang Xiaotao coming back, she hurried forward from the door to ask.

Zhou Kui also came over. Although he didn't say anything, his face was full of concern.

Yang Xiaotao naturally understood what was going on.

It was most likely about Yu Haitang, so he hugged Rongrong who ran over to him in the yard and asked, "What can happen to me?"

"I've been busy at the machinery factory all day. I finally took a day off tomorrow and plan to go play with my kids."

"What's wrong with you guys?"

Yang Xiaotao asked pretending to be ignorant.

Many people around looked at each other after hearing this, and then Wang Dashan came over and said, "Xiao Tao, haven't you heard about Yu Haitang's incident?"

"Yu Haitang?"

"You mean the jumping off the building?"

After Yang Xiaotao said this, Ran Qiuye and Ran's mother came out of the room, looking worried.

Everyone looked at Yang Xiaotao and thought, do you know what he is capable of?

Wang Dashan nodded. "We also heard about it later. It was said that she was shouting on the rooftop looking for you."

"Yes, it is said that after Yu's mother came back, she scolded you for being inhumane."

Xiao Liu's wife, who was standing by, was pulled back by someone next to her as soon as she said this. She stuck out her tongue and looked away.

But Yang Xiaotao didn't care. He just said when he saw everyone, "I heard about this matter at noon, but I was busy at that time, so I didn't go."

After hearing this explanation, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Everyone thinks that human life is of paramount importance, but Yang Xiaotao’s attitude is really not commendable.

But before they could speak, Yang Xiaotao continued, "Besides, I don't know her well."

Everyone was ashamed, but what Yang Xiaotao said was not wrong. When they first started at the steel rolling mill, even their gay relationship was a bit far-fetched. Yang Xiaotao even rejected Yu Haitang in public and didn't look at her well afterwards.

Yu Haitang's motive for looking for Yang Xiaotao right now is definitely not pure.

Yang Xiaotao is not stupid, he definitely won’t go.

"It's better not to go. People like this have evil hearts."

Liu Yuhua on the side suddenly spoke up. She was different from the people in the courtyard and knew who her family relied on for their current life.

Without Yang Xiaotao's help, would Zhou Kui be able to enter the machinery factory?
Could their family life be so comfortable?

"If you ask me, Yu Haitang is just unbalanced. She is jealous when she sees others living a good life but she can't have it herself."

"For this kind of person, I guess even if she was really asked to jump, she wouldn't dare to do it."

After Liu Yuhua finished speaking, people around her immediately responded.

These days, it's normal for someone to die.

Just the last earthquake, and the previous difficult times.

Even though grain production has increased a lot now, there are still people who don’t have enough food to eat.

"Okay, it's no big deal, everyone should do what they need to do."

Yang Xiaotao didn't want to say much. He was tired enough after a day's work and had no mood to talk about anything else.

He walked into the yard holding his daughter, and the people behind him felt that there was nothing to say when they heard the news.

Of course, Yu Haitang's behavior did shock everyone.

Jump off the building.

Jumping off a building is not a new thing, but jumping off a building in a museum is really new.

Yang Xiaotao returned home and soaked the watermelon in a vat of water. Behind him, Liu Yuhua led Xiaoyu over, and Zhou Kui led Duanwu to weed in the yard.

I don't know if these two recognize grass.
As soon as Yang Xiaotao sat down, Ran Qiuye looked at him with concern.

Today she came back from Yangjiazhuang with her children. When she heard people in the courtyard say that Yu Haitang was going to jump off the building, she was a little shocked. After all, if she couldn't bear the consequences of her good life and committed suicide, how could she repay her parents for raising her?

But when she heard them say that Yu Haitang wanted Yang Xiaotao to see her, Ran Qiuye immediately became angry.

When she was with Yang Xiaotao in the early years, Yu Haitang wanted to intervene, but unfortunately her husband was a man with his own ideas and never gave her a chance.

But now, this guy is trying to stir up trouble again, and using such despicable methods. He is really shameless.

Cuiping was playing cat's tangle with Miaomiao in the room. When she saw Yang Xiaotao come in, she pricked up her ears.

"Is this really okay?"

Ran Qiuye was worried that this incident would be used by others to discredit Yang Xiaotao.

"What's going on?"

Yang Xiaotao picked up the cup and took a sip of water. Seeing Ran Qiuye's worried expression, he nodded indifferently, "I'm really fine."

"You can't just let someone come and say, 'You, hurry up and come here, or I'll die in front of you,' and then you have to hurry over."

"Then the other party will cling to you, saying that you have no shame and that you must be responsible for her and marry her."

"That's not just complaining, it's being taken advantage of."

Yang Xiaotao talked eloquently, and Ran's mother chuckled as she listened. Ran Qiuye even shook her head, but she felt relieved in her heart, because her man was a man with his own opinions, but the way he spoke was too casual.

"You have a lot of twisted ideas."

"What kind of twisted logic is this? I'm doing this for the right reasons, okay?"

Cui Ping joked, "This is a twisted logic, but it is also a logic. I think it is correct."

"Even honest people can't be bullied. Why should we do whatever they say?"

Yang Xiaotao immediately cast an admiring look at Cuiping, "You see, this is called great minds think alike."

After Yang Xiaotao said this, Ran Qiuye finally felt relieved.

But I still feel a little unhappy in my heart. My husband is always being "bullied", and as his wife, I can't just ignore it.

Yang Xiaotao knew clearly in his heart that when dealing with such people, one should not indulge them, nor should one follow their ways.

When it was still a steel rolling mill, Qin Huairu made a scene in front of the steel rolling mill by crying, making a fuss and even threatening to commit suicide. In order to solve the problem, Yang Youning let Qin Huairu take over Jia Dongxu's job.

After this incident was exposed, Yang Youning was almost pushed off a cliff.

Of course Yang Xiaotao would not make such a mistake.

You can make trouble if you want, I won't bother with it.

However, if you dare to come and make trouble, haha.

I have plenty of ways.

Then Yang Xiaotao rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook. "By the way, how did this matter end? Any news?"

Cui Ping looked over in surprise. She thought Yang Xiaotao knew, otherwise why would he say it so casually? "You don't know?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded, and everyone became more certain that Yang Xiaotao really didn't take this matter seriously.

"Yu Haitang was eventually rescued, but was arrested again. It is said that she has caused a very bad impact on society and will face severe punishment."

"Father Yu was sent to the police station because of the noise, and they said he would be taught a lesson for a while."

Ran Qiuye said to the side, and Yang Xiaotao nodded gently, "It's good this way, so that he won't be so upset that he will go to other places to cause trouble for others."

After saying that, he walked towards the kitchen.

"By the way, wife, this month's salary."

Halfway through the walk, Yang Xiaotao took out an envelope from his pocket, which contained his fresh salary.

He casually put it in Ran Qiuye's hand and walked into the kitchen.

Chop chop chop

The sound of cutting vegetables was heard quickly.

Everyone in the room was looking at the envelope in Ran Qiuye's hand.

"This is such a thick stack, at least one hundred and fifty."

Cuiping was straightforward and gave an estimate directly.

Liu Yuhua shook her head. "Not only that, Brother Tao's position is chief designer, and he also has subsidies from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and alloy research, which is at least two hundred."

When Ran Qiuye heard the two say this, he quickly put the envelope into his pocket and said, "How can there be so much money? It's all hard-earned money, not much."

"Yuhua, go to the yard and find some cucumbers. The children are all back tonight, so let's get together."

"By the way, Cuiping"

At the gate of the courtyard, Yan Jiecheng was very upset when he heard about Yu Haitang.

Because of Yu Haitang's incident a few days ago, his father made it clear that he was not allowed to have any relationship with the Yu family.

This kind of thing happened today. I heard from people in the hospital that Yu Haitang was too depressed and wanted to drag Yang Xiaotao into it. However, he ended up losing more than he gained. Yang Xiaotao didn't go at all and was rescued in the end.

After hearing about this, Yan Fugui was even more glad that he had divorced Yu Li and cut off their relationship.

Otherwise, their Yan family would also be implicated.

However, after this incident, Yan Jiecheng knew clearly that he and Yu Li could never be together.

Feeling very upset, I went to the gate to cool off and relax.

At this moment, a person walked in from outside the alley, but Yan Jiecheng didn't pay attention at first.

But as the footsteps approached, Yan Jiecheng felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. Then he looked up and saw who was coming. He immediately stood up, patted his butt and went to greet them.

"Yu Li, you're here!"

Yan Jiecheng spoke awkwardly, but Yu Li just glanced at him and asked coldly, "Yan Jiecheng, let me ask you, is Yang Xiaotao back?"

"Yang Xiaotao? I'm back."

After hearing this, Yu Li immediately walked inside.

Yan Jiecheng reacted and hurried forward to pull him, "Why are you going? Yang Xiaotao is not a reasonable person. Sha Zhu was beaten a lot in the past. You..."

"This matter has nothing to do with you. Don't get involved and embarrass your parents."

Yu Li broke free coldly and immediately passed through the Chuihua Gate. Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng gritted his teeth and chased after her.

"Old Yan, what do you think we should do?"

The three aunts in the room saw Yu Li coming and asked hurriedly. Yan Fugui sighed, "What else can we do? Let's go and take a look."

The two of them ran out, followed by a group of people.

Middle Court.

Yang Xiaotao is cutting vegetables in the kitchen. He will cook more tonight as there are quite a few people.

At this time, shouting sounds were heard from outside, and Wangcai's roar also sounded.

"Yang Xiaotao, come out, come out."

"I know you're in the house, so you better not be a coward at noon."

When the voice came, Yang Xiaotao chopped the kitchen knife hard on the chopping board. He recognized that it was Yu Li's voice.

It was obvious that the other party had come to the door.

Then there is no need for me to show mercy.

He was about to go out after wiping his hands, but then he heard Ran Qiuye's voice in the yard again, which made him slow down.

"Yu Li, where is my man? It's not your place to look for him."

"If you want to find someone, you should go find your own man."

At the door, Ran Qiuye waved Wangcai away, wiped the water off his hands, and walked closer.

But as she spoke, her eyes flashed sharply and she stared at the woman in front of her.

Yu Li didn't expect that Ran Qiuye, who usually acted like a good teacher in the yard, would give her such a strong sense of oppression at this moment.

So much so that after Ran Qiuye finished speaking, I stood there and didn't know what to say.

Yu Li took a deep breath, suppressed the discomfort in her heart, and then said, "Ran Qiuye, I'm looking for Yang Xiaotao, ask him to come out."

Ran Qiuye shook her head gently, "As expected of two sisters, they say the same things."

There were laughters all around, and Xiao Liu's wife spoke frankly, "Yes, both sisters like to find other people's men."

After she finished speaking, the laughter around her got louder. Yu Li's face instantly turned red and her breathing became rapid.

Ran Qiuye's words were sonorous and powerful, like thunder, echoing in the air for a long time.

Yu Li was even more intimidated by her aura. She instantly lost the ability to speak and could only stare at her silently.

Ran Qiuye spoke again, "I am Yang Xiaotao's wife, we are a family, he is a grown man, it is not convenient for him to be with a woman."

"It's the same if you have anything to say to me. We are both women, so it will be easier for us to talk."

"By the way, I think Yu Haitang should have asked you to pass on a message. It's the same as telling me."

"Of course, if it's about love, then there's no need to talk about it, because I trust my man."

"Although he is not very outstanding, he has always been working hard for this family. So no matter what he does, I will stand by his side and I believe in him!"

"As for Yu Haitang's matter, I deeply regret it, but please don't use your self-proclaimed pity to deceive our sympathy, and don't think that our family owes you anything."

"Because these are two completely unrelated things."

"Our two families are not close enough to meet each other at any time, let alone forcing my man in this way."

"Comrade Yu Li, you are right, right?"

At this moment, Ran Qiuye looked calm, as if he was a teacher in the classroom, teaching a student who had made a mistake.

At this moment, the expression on Yu Li's face seemed to tell of a feeling of being hit. Her lips were tightly pursed, as if she was enduring something, and there was a glimmer of tears in her eyes.

The people around watched quietly, listening to Ran Qiuye's ruthless words, and once again realized how powerful Ran Qiuye was.

Among these people, there is one person who has a deeper understanding.
