A pleasant life in a courtyard

Chapter 168 I have to be ruthless
The two people under the moonlight reflected completely different shadows.

One is straight, the other is hunched.

Yan Bugui's head felt like paste at this time. His normally eloquent mouth opened and closed countless times, but he could not utter a complete sentence.

He didn't want to take Li Xiang's words in the worst direction, but he couldn't control the thoughts in his mind.

After a long time of nirvana, he finally found his voice and wanted to play the emotional card.

"We are all neighbors in the same compound..."

"Why else do you think you are still standing here now?" Li Xiang sharply interrupted what he was about to say.

Li Xiang put his hands in his pockets and slowly walked around Yan Bugui, saying as he walked:
"You should be glad that you came here today, otherwise you wouldn't have been punished."

Li Xiang's meaning was obvious, and there was nothing that Yan Bugui couldn't understand.

thump.

Yan Bugui knelt down in response, his head pressed extremely low, as if his spine had been taken away, and his body became soft and turned into mud.

He didn't say anything, just kneeling.

Li Xiang stood there and watched quietly for a while.

Then he turned his eyes to the closed doors and windows of each house.

After a long time, he turned and left.

He only left one sentence for Yan Bugui.

"Don't think about it this year, just treat it as a wake-up call to your family."

It wasn't until he saw Li Xiang entering the house and heard the sound of the door being locked that Yan Bugui staggered up from the ground.

He also looked at each house for a while, then slowly walked home.

As a pathfinder, he had his leg broken, but he didn't know if he could dispel other people's evil intentions.

Seeing that everyone was gone, the second aunt in the room dared to pat her chest and talk to the second uncle.

"My heart was pounding with fear. Do you think this child knew we were peeking inside?"

"I must know, otherwise why would he come here? But this old Yan threw his face on the ground and knelt down when asked." The second uncle sat back on the stool in shock, and his legs were a little weak.

"I usually look like a very soft-spoken kid, but I didn't expect him to have such a ruthless side." The second aunt muttered and poured a glass of water for the second uncle.

"Stop talking nonsense. Don't forget that we are on the side of the Li family. We are not going against him. We can only gain from following him."

The second uncle glanced at the second aunt with disgust, feeling that this woman had long hair and short knowledge.

"Then I don't know, I'm scared." The second aunt felt aggrieved.

The second uncle glanced at her sideways, snorted and said nothing.

But the second aunt didn't care. Instead, she leaned over and continued to ask:

"Li Xiang is so capable now. He can scare the third uncle to his knees with just a few words. He can't be lying, right?"

They were some distance apart in the house, and what was said in the yard could only be heard intermittently.

But later when I heard Li Xiang mentioning the Yan family's children, I could probably guess that this was used as a handle.

"What do you know? Unless the Yan family has left this place, otherwise Li wants to take advantage of them. It is a casual matter. Believe it or not, he does not need to do it himself. As long as he lets out the word, there are many people who can do it for him."

The second uncle explained Li Xiang's current energy to the second aunt, with pride and a little regret in his eyes.It's a pity that this kid is not his own child. If he were his own child, why would he be an official?

There is such a promising child, no matter where he is, people will not treat him as an old man.

Mother Li's treatment in the steel rolling mill is almost the same now. Not to mention the department heads and people below her, even the chief, deputy factory directors and secretaries will smile and say hello when they see her.

Liu Haizhong had been dreaming of being an official for most of his life, not just to achieve such dignity.

"Hey, be a good boy. I understand when you say this. Then if Cuiping and I get along better in the future, then our two children will be able to work..." Before she finished speaking, her meaning was revealed.

The second uncle took a sip of water and nodded, indicating that he agreed with her.

According to his observation, Li Xiang is quite easy to talk to as long as his limits are not touched.

And this kid is very good to his family members. Sometimes if you can't use force on him, you can use force on his family members. He won't pretend not to see it.

Isn’t it that the relationship between Silly Pillar is so relaxed?

He guessed that the reason why the child was so angry today might be the poisonous oath Cuiping swore.

Even if it is true, if a mother protects her child and makes such a vicious oath, the child will not feel good.

Li never thought that Li's mother would say this.

At that time, his sanity was all but gone, and he wished he could bring trouble to the Yan family.

He has already drafted the means of attack and plans to implement them tomorrow.

So what he said to Yan Bugui, "You should be glad that I found him today" was true from the bottom of his heart.

Otherwise, it would be hard to tell if there would be a family named Yan in the compound within two days.

And he also admitted that the mess in the yard was intentional.

Not only did he know that the second uncle's family would peek in, but also Xu Damao's family and the deaf old lady were hiding in the house.

This move is to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

Tomorrow, as rumors spread that Yan Bugui would kneel down, he would like to see if anyone would dare to hang out in front of their house in the middle of the night.

Mother Li was a little worried. She also saw it in the house just now.

"Isn't it too much? What if they become cruel and do evil again?"

"They don't dare. If they have such courage, I would admire them a little, but it's a pity that no one in the Yan family has it." Li Xiang turned on the electric fan in the outer room, looked at the rotating fan blades, and said lightly.

"After all, we are neighbors in the same courtyard, so we can't be too strict in our actions." Mother Li sat next to her, adhering to the old traditional thinking, admonishing her son.

"Then you shouldn't swear like that. Why don't you follow what the elder brother taught you? Do you have to rely on swearing to solve everything in the future?" The elder sister angrily avenged the injustice for the elder brother.

"Then I am not thinking about his reputation, using my power to control others, so that it will sound good." Seeing that the children did not understand her painstaking efforts, Mother Li was a little frustrated.

"Then it sounds good to swear on our lives? Have you ever thought that something like this can force you to swear on the lives of your whole family? People will think highly of you!" The eldest sister is also very angry now. , I was very angry that my mother still refused to admit that she did bad things with good intentions.

In her opinion, the eldest brother did not need to stand up to establish his own authority like this. Although he punished the Yan family, it would still hinder his reputation.

The reputation damage was more serious than Mother Li thought.

But if you don't stand up now, people will dare to confront the Li family over small matters that are bigger than the needle.
