Siheyuan: Lao Liu appears, everyone is confused

Chapter 173 Yi Zhonghai: The years I was a master

"Banggen, are you saying that the White Rabbit toffee you hid under the bed was stolen by Zhao Dalong and Zhao Xiaohu?"

Qin Huairu, who probably understood, looked at Banggeng and couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, I saw them eating just now. If you don't believe me, you can ask Xiaodang." Banggeng said decisively, and then asked Xiaodang beside him, "Xiaodang, do you think so?"

"Mom, they did eat Brother's White Rabbit toffee."

Xiaodang nodded directly and agreed.

however.

After listening to the words of his eldest son Banggen and second daughter Xiaodang, Qin Huairu still frowned and said in confusion: "That's not right! Banggen, how did Zhao Dalong and Zhao Xiaohu know that you hid the candy under the bed? You Did you tell them?"

Qin Huairu had to doubt.

Even she didn't know that there were two white rabbit toffees hidden in this stick. How could Zhao Dalong and Zhao Xiaohu, as outsiders and children, know about it.

If you blame someone wrongly, or even slander other people's children for stealing, that will offend people.

Yes...

"This is impossible!"

But soon, as if he remembered something, Bang Gang said quickly: "Mom, I remembered it. It might not have been stolen by Zhao Dalong and Zhao Xiaohu, but it might have been someone else. It might have been Tieniu, or it might have been Dabao and the others. They I also have my White Rabbit toffee in my hand..."

Until now, I have been convinced that they stole the clue of my White Rabbit toffee, and I started to think about this problem.

"two……"

Bangge himself was also stupid.

Not just them, but almost every kid in the yard.

Hearing this, Qin Huairu had no choice but to ask: "Banggan, let me ask you, when did you throw away the white rabbit toffee?"

Maybe it will lead to a deadly feud.

Bangge nodded heavily.

"I……"

"How is it impossible? He just disappeared today. When I went out to play in the afternoon, he was still there."

Obviously, Banggeng lied again.

"They haven't been here?"

Taking a deep breath, Qin Huairu, who had already figured it out, asked helplessly.

Faced with Qin Huairu's question, Banggan, who was originally confident and confident, suddenly became speechless.

It doesn't make sense logically.

Bangge, who couldn't answer, could only say: "They must have dug it out themselves."

Where did he conjure up so many White Rabbit candies for them to steal?

This number doesn't add up.

Unless Bangge accidentally let it slip.

Stealing something is no small matter.

This time, he really didn't lie!
Why doesn't even Qin Huairu, his biological mother, believe him?

BangGeng is anxious.

Bangge replied quickly.

When Banggeng said that the candy was lost today, Qin Huairu frowned even more and said seriously to Banggeng, "It's impossible today! Banggeng, please answer me carefully, when did you disappear?"

He didn't even tell his biological mother and biological sister about such an important matter, how could he let Zhao Dalong and Zhao Xiaohu know about it.

"Then let me ask you, how many White Rabbit candies you have hidden in total."

This time Qin Huairu was completely angry.

If you go looking for trouble for others before the matter is clarified, and then you discover that you have made a mistake, it will not only be embarrassing, but also troublesome.

And the matter of two candies, even the unusual White Rabbit toffee, would not reach that point.

Today was a day off. She didn't have to go to the steel rolling mill to work, so she didn't go out much.

Even after answering, Bangge himself was dumbfounded.

This is no ordinary trouble.

"today!"

"Banggen, I've been in the courtyard all day today. Not to mention the afternoon, even in the morning, I didn't see Zhao Dalong and the others come to the middle courtyard."

"Yup!"

After a while, Qin Huairu asked again: "Banggan, do you think Zhao Dalong, Zhao Xiaohu, Tieniu Dabao and the others all have White Rabbit toffee in their hands?"

Qin Huairu was stunned as soon as these two words came out of Banggeng's mouth.

If they stole it from themselves, how could it be possible that each of them had it in their hands, and some had more than one in their hands.

BangGeng was completely dumbfounded.

"Banggen, you were not in the courtyard this afternoon, so you might not know." Sighing, Qin Huairu explained: "Wang Hao brought his partner over in the afternoon. When he was cooking just now, he gave white rabbits to other children in the courtyard. Milk candy, so their White Rabbit milk candy probably wasn’t stolen from you.”

Qin Huairu also just remembered this.

The main reason was that I just saw Banggeng's nose and face were bruised and swollen after being beaten, and he also had a nosebleed. He was so anxious that he couldn't care about anything else.

It wasn't until Banggeng said that the White Rabbit toffee he had hidden at home was stolen, that Qin Huairu began to understand the situation and analyze it, and then started to think about it.

"what?"

Bangge couldn't accept this result.

The key point is that Wang Hao just brought his partner to the courtyard, why would he give out candy to others?
What he was given was the White Rabbit toffee that he had always wanted before.

Especially choosing a time when he was not around made him very unhappy.

I feel like I'm at a huge loss.

If he had known that Wang Hao would hand out candy in the afternoon, he would not have taken his sister out to play.

"These injuries on your body were caused by Zhao Dalong and the others, right?"

Through Banggeng's insistence that it was Zhao Dalong and the others who stole the White Rabbit toffee that he had hidden at home, Qin Huairu had already guessed the ins and outs of the entire incident.

She had been checked before and found that the sticks were mainly minor skin injuries, but she had been silent just now, which scared her a little.

It hurts, but it's not serious at all.

After guessing what happened, Qin Huairu was helpless.

"Yes, not only Zhao Dalong, but others also took action." BangGeng said viciously.

Originally, when he and Zhao Dalong started fighting, he had the advantage, but when others came over, he would only get beaten, which made him very unhappy.

It would be shameless for a group of people to beat him up.

"Who else?"

"Zhao Dalong, Tieniu, Dabao..."

"so many people?"

"..."

Qin Huairu felt a little numb after hearing BangGeng read out the names of most of the children in the courtyard.

Although Bangge himself said just now that there was more than one person who beat him, Qin Huairu did not expect that there would be so many people.

What did this awesome guy do before?
"Did you misunderstand that they all stole your candy?"

She didn't ask, and Banggeng didn't take the initiative to tell her, so Qin Huairu could only ask everything she thought and guessed.

Not only Qin Huairu, but also Jia Zhang, who had always favored her grandson, also knew the result.

But Jia Zhang couldn't hold it any longer.

"If there is a misunderstanding, it will be a misunderstanding. Just clarify it."

"They didn't steal it, so they can't hit anyone!"

"It's totally unreasonable that so many people are beating up our family."

"Let's go! Grandma will settle the accounts with them for you!" "..."

Jia Zhang was so angry that she cursed and wanted to come to the house with a stick to settle the score on the spot.

"Mom, don't make trouble anymore. This is just a mistake. I misunderstood you, and I won't take it seriously." Seeing this, Qin Huairu stopped Jia Zhang with a headache.

If it's just one or two, that's fine.

The key point is to look at the situation just mentioned by Bangge. The families involved account for more than half of the residents of the entire courtyard.

If there really is a commotion, will they still live in this courtyard in the future?

"Then the good fight was just in vain?"

Jia Zhang exploded on the spot.

This stick is her precious grandson, the future hope of their Jia family, and no one can touch him.

"So what?"

Qin Huairu wiped away tears.

As a biological mother, it was impossible for her not to feel distressed when Bang Gang was beaten, and she felt more uncomfortable than anyone else.

But the problem is that Bangge first "misunderstood" that he was a thief.

This matter may be big or small, but in reality, their family may not be able to take advantage.

Helpless Qin Huairu could only look at Yi Zhonghai and asked for help: "Master, can you help our family come up with an idea?"

If it had been before, Qin Huairu would have definitely asked Yi Zhonghai to come forward and ask him to hold a hospital-wide meeting to seek justice for their family and Banggeng. If they didn't fight fifty times each, the matter would have to be settled.

but now……

Last time Director Wang from the subdistrict came over in person and announced the removal of Yizhonghai, the boss of the Management Yuan. Now he no longer has the power to hold a general meeting.

Coupled with the report, Yi Zhonghai stayed in the bureau for half a month. Even if he is released now and is still working in the steel rolling mill, his status and prestige, whether in the yard or in the workshop, have long been reduced.

In the courtyard, although many people still called her "Master Yi Zhonghai" like she did before, it was more out of past habits that the name became smoother.

Including Wang Hao, even though there are only two elders in charge of the courtyard, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, Wang Hao still calls them the second uncle and the third uncle as before.

"Huairu, I'm no longer a master now, and I don't have any good ideas."

Yi Zhonghai was helpless and felt deeply frustrated.

In the past two days, Yi Zhonghai was clearly aware of the changes in the attitude of the neighbors in the courtyard and the workers in the workshop towards him, and he felt a lot of hardship in the world, but he had never felt such a strong sense of loss as at this moment.

When he came out of it, Yi Zhonghai knew that his position as the first uncle was gone.

It was uncomfortable, but he didn't act too violently, as if he had slowly accepted the result.

Until just now, when Qin Huairu asked him for help, he had no way to help, and he couldn't even provide any solution.

That feeling of powerlessness was like a whirlpool, sucking him tightly and finally dragging him in.

He was used to being the big boss in the courtyard, the one who made decisions, gave orders, and helped everyone "justice". Now his existence and opportunities have been completely lost.

Words don't count anymore.

Even if you want to show off this old face, others may not buy it.

"Otherwise." After thinking about it, Qin Huairu suggested to Yi Zhonghai: "Master, do you think this is possible?

You talk to the second uncle and ask him to hold a hospital-wide meeting so that everyone can talk about this matter.

Even if Bangge is wrong, it still doesn't make sense for them to beat people and beat them like this. "

In fact, this was Qin Huairu's plan from the beginning.

It's just that Yi Zhonghai is still here. It's a bit unreasonable to skip him and go to Liu Haizhong, the second uncle. It may make Yi Zhonghai, the former first uncle, feel unhappy.

So Qin Huairu first asked Yi Zhonghai for help, and then asked Yi Zhonghai to help him find the second uncle to come forward for him.

At least.

I did not skip him, nor did I change my previous attitude and respect for him.

And Yi Zhonghai did play a "effect".

After all, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong have known each other for so many years, and they have been the stewards of the courtyard together. They have handled many matters in the courtyard together. Yi Zhonghai still has some affection for Liu Haizhong.

"Okay, let me try it for you!"

Yi Zhonghai did not refuse, but agreed.

Even though he is no longer worthy of the name, Yi Zhonghai is still unwilling to be a transparent person with no sense of existence, at least he cannot accept the gap in a short period of time.

more importantly.

He can't lose his friendship with the Jia family, let alone let himself become "useless".

Now it seems that except for Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu, there are not many people in the courtyard who can not change their attitude towards him as before.

My efforts over the years are still effective.

It's just that Yi Zhonghai is not sure how long this state can last.

He no longer has enough time, energy and financial resources to look for and train new caregivers.

No matter what, he couldn't afford it.

The confidence I once had is no longer there.

Sometimes Yi Zhonghai really regrets it, and even he can't figure out why he went to trouble Wang Hao in the first place.

Once the report was revealed, he completely destroyed himself, whether it was his status in the factory or the long-term layout of the courtyard.

During the time when he was locked up in the small black room, Yi Zhonghai thought about many things. He was unwilling to let things go, he was angry, he felt deeply unfair, and naturally he also regretted and reflected on it.

Only then did he realize that he had been in a "high position" for a long time, and his mentality began to have problems. Especially the changes in Wang Hao some time ago, as well as the successive blows and pressures brought to him, made him unable to bear it and lost what he should have had. Reason and concentration.

I figured it out, but it was too late.

Now, he has long lost the capital to confront Wang Hao.

however.

When Yi Zhonghai just set out and came out of Jia's house, he happened to see Yan Bugui coming from the front yard.

Yi Zhonghai, who was a little surprised, asked: "Old Yan, where are you going?"

When Yi Zhonghai found Yan Bugui, Yan Bugui naturally saw him. When he heard Yi Zhonghai's inquiry, he said directly: "Go to Lao Liu and tell me something."

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

Although Yan Bugui did not say clearly when it was, at this time and point, it is difficult not to let Yi Zhonghai think too much.

"Lao Yan, is it related to BangGeng when you go to see Lao Liu?" Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but probe.

"It seems you know everything."

Yan Bugui was not surprised that Yi Zhonghai guessed the purpose of looking for Liu Haizhong. After all, he had just seen him walking out of Jia's house.

Yan Bugui smiled and took the initiative to invite: "Lao Yi, do you want to come together?"

"Then..."

Subconsciously, he wanted to agree, but Yi Zhonghai suddenly remembered that he was no longer a great man, so he could only refuse with some reluctance: "Forget it, I have something else to do!"

"Hey, I'll go first then."

Seeing this, Yan Bugui did not insist.

Now he and Liu Haizhong are the only two courtyard masters in the courtyard. Yi Zhonghai is no longer in the ranks of the courtyard masters.

It would be inappropriate if Yi Zhonghai continued to interfere with matters within the scope of the "authority" of the supervisor.

Strictly speaking, they are no longer the same person.

He was just polite just now because he was worried that Yi Zhonghai would agree accidentally and he would be embarrassed by then.

Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai is not that ignorant.

at the same time.

Seeing Yan Bugui going to the backyard alone without inviting him again, Yi Zhonghai still felt a little lonely.

Things are not as good as they used to be...
