Comfortable life in Siheyuan

In the evening, Liu Qingshan had just returned to the courtyard when he heard a shocking news.

On the way back from school, Yi Xiaojun was put into a sack and his pants were taken off. He ran back with bare legs, using Wudang Kung Fu.

After hearing this, Feng Yu asked in astonishment, "What on earth is going on? Did Xiaojun offend some classmates at school?"

Liu Qingshan shook his head mysteriously and said in a low voice: "They may not be classmates, but as for our neighbors... we have been enemies for a long time."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah! No way, are you talking about the one from the Jia family?" Her voice was full of disbelief, and then she lowered her voice, as if she was afraid of being heard by others.

Liu Qingshan whispered, "Shh! Don't shout so loudly, let's go home first!" So the two of them walked into the middle courtyard in silence.

Although they had already entered the courtyard, they could still vaguely hear bursts of sobbing coming from Yi Zhonghai's house. The sound was like weeping and complaining, and it moved people.

Before he even entered the house, Liu Qingshan was stopped by someone.

"Qingshan, Qingshan!" Xu Damao shouted with a wink.

"Brother Damao, is there anything wrong?" Liu Qingshan asked with a smile.

Xu Damao didn't care about anything else. He walked to Liu Qingshan, grabbed his hand, and pulled him into the yard.

"Qingshan, did you know that Yi Xiaojun from an uncle's family had his pants taken off?" Xu Damao looked excited.

"I heard about it as soon as I entered the compound. What? Did you take it off?" Liu Qingshan deliberately teased.

"I don't have the time for that. Besides, he is just a child. Why should I care?" Xu Damao grumbled dissatisfiedly.

"Just kidding, what's wrong? Do you know who did it?" Liu Qingshan asked in a low voice.

"No need to know, isn't it obvious? They can't escape from those two guys from the Jia family." Xu Damao said somewhat smugly.

"It's similar to what I thought. I guess everyone in the hospital can guess it, but the person hasn't been caught and there is no evidence." Liu Qingshan said helplessly.

"The Jia family really doesn't plan to stay in the courtyard. There are three masters in charge, and this time they have offended two of them. What kind of brain do they have?" Xu Damao even doubted whether the Jia family was brave or brainless.

"It's better to stay away from them. Nothing good will come of it if we get involved with her family!" Liu Qingshan said cautiously.

"That's true!" Xu Damao deeply agreed.

"That's what you're looking for me about. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. I'm hungry!" Liu Qingshan said.

"There's still something else, there's still something else, don't be anxious!" Xu Damao grabbed Liu Qingshan's arm again.

"Let go, I won't run away, what are you afraid of?" Liu Qingshan said speechlessly.

"Qingshan, you said that Cui Dake has been promoted to purchasing agent. Do I still have hope? I have mentioned it to our director several times, why is there no movement yet?" Xu Damao asked anxiously.

"I just went there with nothing to say. Don't fool me. Don't I know you?"

"Hehe! Nothing much. I just brought some local specialties from the countryside." Xu Damao said embarrassedly as his thoughts were seen through.

"Has the apprentice been brought out? Is he the nephew of your section chief?" Liu Qingshan didn't think about helping, his mind was completely on gossip.

"Yes, yes, who else could it be but him? I'm teaching you step by step, how could you not learn? My father was not so dedicated when he taught me. Didn't you see that I have been going to the countryside less often this year?" Xu Damao said hurriedly.

"That's fine. I guess your leader is waiting for an opportunity. If you work hard to perform well, there shouldn't be a problem." Liu Qingshan couldn't explain it clearly, so he could only respond perfunctorily.

"That's fine. I thought he was fooling me. Now I feel relieved." Xu Damao murmured to himself.

"I'm going back first. I haven't even been home since I got off work." Liu Qingshan said and went straight home.

In the middle courtyard, an old man’s family is now in a state of gloom and sorrow.

"Mom and Dad, how can I go to school tomorrow? They all laughed at me and saw everything. I don't want to go to school! Woo!!" Yi Xiaojun lay on the bed, crying from time to time.

"It's okay, Xiaojun, no one will laugh at you. Our Xiaojun is a good boy. It's not your fault that someone bullied you today." The aunt caressed her son's head lovingly.

"Xiaojun, can your mother pick you up from school after school tomorrow? Otherwise, I will ask your third uncle in the front yard to bring you back?" Yi Zhonghai also coaxed.

"Dad, can't I not go to school? I..." Yi Xiaojun was still a little scared. What happened today was really too embarrassing. Children also have self-esteem.

"It's okay. If you don't want to go tomorrow, you don't have to go. But we can't not go forever. We still have to learn. Look at Liu Qingshan in the backyard. He learned it through study. Now he is a big leader and very educated." Yi Zhonghai was very patient with Xiaojun.

"Old Yi, I think this must have been done by the guy next door. It must be that little bastard Banggeng." The aunt said gritting her teeth.

"Do you think I'm a fool? How can I not guess such a simple thing? Xiaojun has never offended anyone in school, so it can only be their family. But we have no evidence!" Yi Zhonghai said helplessly.

"Let's just leave it at that. It's happened once or twice. Do you think we are easy to bully?" An old lady looked unwilling.

"I won't let this matter go like this. I will find an opportunity to vent my anger." The old man said firmly.

"Okay, then I feel relieved. This old hag only cares about food and not beatings. She even dares to instigate Banggeng to bully my Xiaojun. I think she doesn't want to live in this yard anymore." The aunt was so angry that she spoke without thinking.

"Okay, stop talking."

Qin Huairu, who lived across from the Yi family, was still scolding Bang Geng with a sullen face.

"Who taught you to do this? Tell me! If you don't, you'll have to stand here today and have no food to eat!" Qin Huairu scolded, but she couldn't help but think of what Wang the matchmaker had said about remarriage.

Bang Geng lowered his head, not daring to say a word, and kept glancing towards Jia Zhang.

"Don't look at your grandma. It's useless to look at her. You must tell the truth about what happened today."

"Mom, it wasn't me!" Banggeng said this without confidence, and anyone could tell that he was lying.

"Do you think everyone else is a fool? Do you think people in the courtyard can't see it? You can put someone in a sack today, but what if a big boss throws you into the toilet tomorrow?" Qin Huairu said helplessly.

"Mom, I know I was wrong. I won't do it again. I promise this is the last time. There won't be a next time."

"You've promised several times, but is it any use? It's always been like this. Just pray that others don't cause you any trouble this time!"

"Who asked them to bully my family? Both the eldest uncle and the second uncle bullied our family. I heard what you said to grandma that day. Grandma even said she wanted to take revenge on him. I can do it myself. What's wrong with that?" Bang Geng shouted loudly.

The quarrel in the Jia family was quite loud. Yi Zhonghai, who lived next door, didn't take it seriously at first, but later he stood at the door of the Jia family with a grim face.
