Siheyuan: A blessed place to start

Xiao Weiguo glanced back at him, and saw Yi Zhonghai's miserable appearance rising slowly like the morning sun, except that the morning sun was red, and he was black.

"Xiao Weiguo, are you aware of Comrade Yi Zhonghai's reinstatement at the steel mill?"

The intention was already very obvious, but in Xiao Weiguo's view, this was either a frame-up or a frame-up. If he could produce even a little evidence, he would have lived in vain.

"Reinstatement? You are not ashamed to mention Lao Yi's reinstatement. Isn't this just rubbing salt into his wounds?"

"The alley was buzzing with commotion early yesterday morning. Everyone knows about this. If you have something to say, speak up and put it out in the open. There are so many people in the courtyard as witnesses to avoid being wrongly accused!"

Xu Damao rolled his eyes at Xiao Weiguo, indicating that he could be wrongly accused of this matter, but there was no evidence.

If there was any evidence, it would have been announced to the world long ago.

"To be honest, Lao Yi went to resume his job yesterday. Director Wang of the street had already reported him as a skilled worker, but his position was changed when he arrived at the factory! Who was the one who had the dark hand that made Lao Yi suffer such a setback? Everyone knows who did the bad thing!"

"It's not easy for Lao Yi, an old man who is all alone and helpless, and still has to make a living by carrying manure at such an old age. Life is already so difficult for him, and there are still people who deliberately sabotage him and make him live in a hell. Who is so wicked! Aren't they afraid of giving birth to a child without an anus?"

Ever since Xu Damao came back from the countryside, he has been speaking in a very rough manner. He doesn't care about anything and just hits people as he pleases.

But no one said anything. What was there to say about something they hadn’t done?

Including Xiao Weiguo, he was sitting leisurely on a chair with his legs crossed, smoking with Chen Dapao and others, and Lao Zhang next to him was so choked that he couldn't help but take a bite of a cigarette.

A group of people don’t care what you say on the stage. We are just making circles below and having a lot of fun.

No one responded from the audience. Xu Damao stared at Xiao Weiguo angrily.

"Chief Xiao, you have worked in the factory for so many years. Who can compare with you in terms of connections and relationships? Besides, you are the only one who has a say in the Labor and Personnel Department. Do you think you are the one who secretly tricked Lao Yi?"

Xu Damao can even say such things without any evidence. What else can he not do?

However, before Xiao Weiguo could speak, Chen Dapao disagreed.

"Xu Damao, you..."

"Call me uncle!"

Chen Dapao was so angry at Xu Damao's pretentiousness that he stamped his feet. But there was nothing he could do, because he was younger than him!

"Okay, uncle! The matter of Yi Zhonghai going to work in the factory was handled by the people in the street and the labor and personnel department of the factory. What does it have to do with Brother Xiao?"

"Do you have any evidence? If you have evidence, just show it to me. I will join you in spitting on him. But if you don't have any evidence, I advise you not to do it! Be careful that I will sue you for defamation!"

After saying that, Chen Dapao raised his eyebrows, gave Xiao Weiguo a look of interest and sat down, while Xu Damao snorted and laughed.

"You're right, I have no evidence! If there was evidence to prove who did this evil thing, I would have come to their door long ago! But think about it, who has a grudge against Lao Yi? Who has the ability to stop this? Who else but Xiao Weiguo!"

Xu Damao became more and more excited as he spoke. He pointed at Xiao Weiguo, with hatred written all over his face.

"Xu Damao, you are clearly bullying me. Why do you judge a case like this after interrogating an old man? You don't ask why, and you throw dirty water on people without knowing the truth. What's the use of you? What else can you do except stir up trouble?"

"Yi Zhonghai asked Director Wang to handle this matter, but you didn't ask Director Wang for clarification, and you put the blame on yourself? I won't take the blame!"

"Besides, everyone only found out about Lao Yi going to work at the factory that morning. I don't believe he was unwilling. So, he specially asked Chen Dapao to buy firecrackers and set them off. So I helped to celebrate but ended up making things worse?"

"Don't blame others when something goes wrong, look for the cause in yourself first."

"For a person with a criminal record, even if he has excellent skills, the labor and wages department of the steel mill will conduct a strict review. If your identity does not pass the review, what can they do to arrest you? You have to be responsible for the immoral things you have done at such an age!"

Xiao Weiguo defended himself with a few words, and just when he felt relieved, Yi Zhonghai started crying with tears streaming down his face.

"My colleagues in the Labor and Personnel Department have made it clear that someone is secretly making trouble. Who else but you can talk to them? You are the only one in the whole yard who has a grudge against me. You must be the one seeking revenge on me!"

"Weiguo, I'm so old, I just got divorced, and now I don't even have a place to live, what else do you want me to do?"

"Or, I'll apologize to you! I'll kneel down and apologize to you..."

Having said that, Yi Zhonghai didn't care about anything and lost all shame as he walked out of the crowd and ran straight towards Xiao Weiguo.

Xu Damao even added fuel to the fire, "Old Yi is so old, kneeling down to a young man like you, aren't you afraid of shortening your life?"

"Uncle Yi makes a living by carrying manure every day. His life is hard. There are people who dislike him and try to trip him up. Xiao Weiguo, are you still a human being?"

Xu Damao originally wanted to use the tragic method to awaken everyone's sympathy, but unexpectedly, Xiao Weiguo threw a stone at random, which hit him directly on the head with a bang.

At this point, Xu Damao rushed to Lao Gao, "Xiao Weiguo, fight me! Just wait!"

After saying that, he ran towards this side very wildly, and Lao Yi limped to Xiao Weiguo and was about to kneel down when he was pulled away by Xu Damao.

Don't delay me from taking action!

When Xu Damao's fist was about to land on Xiao Weiguo's head, Xiao Weiguo broke his hands and a scream was heard instantly.

Xu Damao cried out in pain, grinning like a pig.

“It hurts, it hurts… Stop it, you stop it right now!”

Immediately followed by a "click" sound, Xu Damao's pig-like screams stopped abruptly. His eyes widened and his hands hung in the air like a puppet with its strings cut.

"Ah... Help, call the police, someone help me call the police! Xiao Weiguo broke my arm! Help, someone's dead!"

"Okay, stop wailing like a woman. Please help me call the police and tell them that someone in the yard has a broken arm. As for why, just ask the police to come and find out the reason!"

"Oh, right, as for Lao Yi's work, I'd like to ask the police comrades to help investigate it. Is there anyone who has embezzled bribes or accepted bribes? Is there anyone who has secretly made trouble? Wouldn't it be clear at a glance?"

After saying that, Chen Dapao quickly stood up and raised his hands.

"Brother Xiao, I'll go!"

"and many more!"

Chen Dapao turned around and was about to call the police, but Yi Zhonghai refused.

There are too many explanations when it comes to work. If the police get involved, who knows what they might find out. He doesn't dare to do that!
