Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

Zhao Ping parked the tricycle at the door, locked it with a chain, and took the vegetables back to the house. "Xiaomi, I'll go cook first. You go to Abei's house and tell them that I'm inviting several families to dinner tonight."

Xiaomi nodded, put away her schoolbag and went to Zhou Fu's house. It is necessary to establish relationships with neighbors in a new environment, but Zhao Ping does not intend to interact with people like Yi Zhenghai, so it is better to invite Zhou Fu's family.

Li Jianguo was dissatisfied when he saw Zhao Ping bringing vegetables home, but he was afraid of Zhao Ping's power and dared not say anything. After a while, Sun Xiaoru also returned to the courtyard after get off work. She was one of the first people to return home from the steel mill.

After she entered the house, she saw Zhao Ping's tricycle, stopped and asked Li Jianguo: "Uncle, where did Zhao Ping's new tricycle come from?"

Sun Xiaoru recalled Zhao Ping's previous attitude and felt a little unhappy, but when she asked, she became more active again: "He said he bought it, but he didn't answer when I asked about the bicycle ticket."

Sun Xiaoru rolled her eyes a little: "Uncle, the rule in our courtyard is that you have to treat everyone when you buy a bicycle. What did he say about treating everyone?"

Li Jianguo shook his head: "I forgot to ask, how about asking again?"

Sun Xiaoru secretly blamed Li Jianguo in her heart, but smiled and said, "Uncle, I am a widow, it is not appropriate for me to ask. Why don't you go?"

Li Jianguo thought, who dares to act like an elder in front of him? "He and I are just neighbors, how dare I act like an elder? I have to water the flowers and don't have time to chat." After saying that, he hurried home.

Sun Xiaoru looked at Li Jianguo who ran back home, feeling very unwilling. If Li Jianguo hadn't taken the lead, she wouldn't have expected to have guests. As for Yi Zhenghai and Li Dali, she knew they didn't dare to take the lead. After thinking it over, she decided not to encourage Liu Dahai anymore, so as not to bring trouble upon herself.

Aunt Zhang was puzzled when she saw Li Jianguo hurried home. If they missed this opportunity, their family would suffer a great loss.

"Why are you back? Didn't you say that Director Yang from the steel mill would be back today? Li Dali should have brought his lunch box back."

Li Jianguo snorted: "When will Li Dali give us lunch boxes? Sun Xiaoru came back just to stare at Li Dali's lunch box."

Aunt Zhang was not giving up: "How do you know if you don't try? What if Li Dali gets confused?"

Li Jianguo sat back in his original position: "See if Sun Xiaoru has left. I will leave after she leaves."

Aunt Zhang looked unhappy: "Isn't she washing clothes in the middle courtyard? Why did she come to our doorstep?"

Li Jianguo looked out through the crack in the door and didn't see Sun Xiaoru, so he felt relieved: "Zhao Ping bought a tricycle, and she wanted him to treat her, so she insisted that I go over and ask."

Aunt Zhang was so scared that she looked out the door: "Don't go, we can't afford to offend him. Lao Yi and Lao Liu were both slapped by him, and you still dare to mess with him?"

Li Jianguo felt aggrieved, but he knew he was in the wrong: "I wouldn't go either, so I went home to avoid it."

Aunt Zhang breathed a sigh of relief: "You must not be beaten again. Whether you beat me or not is another matter, but I don't want our family to lose face."

"Sun Xiaoru is so cruel, how could she plot against our family? Tell me, how did Zhao Ping get the money to buy a tricycle? And where did the tricycle ticket come from?"

Li Jianguo really doesn't understand why most young people nowadays want to buy bicycles.

Yan Dagui's face looked particularly gloomy under the light of his home, and he kept muttering, "Why would I be punished? Didn't I say it's okay?"

Third Aunt also couldn't help but frown, "Why do you think Old Man Yi Zhonghai and the others would be punished?"

Yan Dagui sighed, "Why else? It must be related to Li Kun. We must not provoke him."

After saying this to the three sons, they all nodded in response. The three brothers never thought of offending Li Kun, but instead hoped to establish a friendship with him, mainly to learn from him and see how to control the elders in the family.

Compared to the calmness of the Yan family, the Yi and Liu families were in chaos. In the Yi family, the aunt was flustered and didn't know what to do. She wanted to find someone to help her find out the news, but she found that Han Zhu, who usually ran errands, was not at home.

She looked around and found that except for Han Zhu, no one in the courtyard was willing to help her. For a while, she couldn't find anyone to help her. In desperation, she could only go to the hard-of-hearing grandmother to discuss it.

As soon as he went out, he ran into Qin Huairu washing clothes by the sink. Thinking that she was also in Yi Zhonghai's workshop, he walked over and asked, "Huairu, what happened in the steel plant? Why were Lao Yi and Han Zhu suddenly fined?"

Qin Huairu thought about it for a long time, but still didn't know. She asked Yi Zhonghai, but Yi Zhonghai wouldn't tell her the truth. Helplessly, she could only answer the aunt apologetically: "I don't know either. I asked the uncle, but he didn't tell me. Don't worry, you'll know when the uncle comes back."

The aunt thought Qin Huairu's words made sense, so she turned back to the house and waited for Yi Zhonghai to return.

On the other side, the Liu family was in a similar situation. Second Aunt was flustered, but fortunately she had two sons to rely on, which made her feel a little relieved. She calmed down and immediately ordered Liu Guangtian to go out and get information.

Liu Guangtian had already gone out to inquire, but to no avail. "Mom, I can't find out what happened no matter how hard I try. Everyone says that it must be something that happened yesterday that was reported to Director Yang."

Second Aunt looked a little scared, "Could it be Li Kun who filed the complaint? Wasn't the matter yesterday resolved? Can he stir up trouble again?"

Liu Guangtian thought, if his father hadn't discussed revenge with him last night, would this matter have been so easily resolved?

"Mom, don't talk nonsense. It's not clear why Dad was punished. If Li Kun hears that you are unhappy, he will not forgive you."

Liu Guangfu also agreed: "Mom, Sha Zhu was defeated by him, and the two of us can't beat him either."

Li Kun's ruthlessness and recklessness frightened people, and no one in the hospital dared to provoke him easily. Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu did not want to act rashly for their father and confront Li Kun head-on.

When Second Aunt heard her sons say this, she was so angry that she shouted, "He really dares to do this?"

Liu Guangtian chuckled, "He can keep the hard-of-hearing grandmother from throwing tantrums, so why would he be afraid of you? Mom, please persuade Dad. The situation has changed. Don't act like an elder in front of Li Kun. Don't do what you discussed yesterday."

Second Aunt's face darkened, she stared at her sons and threatened them for a moment, and finally let out a long sigh. Li Kun did not act according to common sense, and his martial arts skills made people upset. He had only been in the courtyard for a few days, but he had turned the world upside down. Even the hard-of-hearing grandmother and Yi Zhonghai were not his opponents, so their family still had to avoid him. At the suggestion of her sons, Second Aunt also decided to temporarily put aside last night's plan and find another solution.

At Qin Huairu's house, they had already made plans to temporarily avoid Li Kun and wait for Yi Zhonghai to deal with him before taking action. Zhang Xiaohua thought that it would be most appropriate to send Qin Huairu to cause trouble for Li Kun. Even if he was beaten, it would be Qin Huairu who suffered, and she didn't care.

"Qin Huairu, I heard that Li Kun bought a tricycle. Go ask him when he will treat you."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been at odds for many years, and Qin Huairu understands Zhang Xiaohua's wishful thinking. If it were someone else, she would have gone to investigate long ago. But this happened to be Li Kun, and she would never dare to go.

"Mom, don't think too much. I asked my third uncle, and he didn't want to go, let alone a woman like me."

Zhang Xiaohua didn't buy it: "Uncle San is just timid, you can't rely on him. Buying a tricycle to treat everyone to a meal is the rule of the courtyard, why doesn't he treat everyone? I don't know where he got the bicycle ticket from. If he doesn't dare to treat everyone, isn't he afraid that someone will report him?"

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up. If Li Kun's bicycle ticket came

"Old Yi, didn't we say that Director Wang and Director Zhang promised that they would not harass us again after being punished once? Why are they harassing us again?"

Yi Zhonghai glanced at Liu Haizhong and felt a little nervous. Although he had not yet figured out the specific reason for the punishment, he had roughly guessed that the dispute in the courtyard might have been reported to Director Yang. If he had not only wanted to cause trouble for Zhao Kun, he might have escaped the punishment this time.

Naturally, this speculation could not be spoken out loud. Yi Zhonghai knew very well that if Liu Haizhong knew about this, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Old Liu, what else don't you understand? The person who loves to tell tales the most in the hospital is Zhao Kun. It is probably him who went to the factory to expose our shortcomings."

Liu Haizhong believed it without even thinking about it, and said indignantly: "Old Yi, we can't let Zhao Kun go, we must drive him away!"

Yi Zhonghai smiled bitterly and shook his head. Zhao Kun's house was allocated by the street office, and he even had a certificate for being a family member of a martyr. Why did they chase him away?

"Old Liu, we have to calm down first. After all, he just got beaten up, so we can't provoke him again. I'm not like you, who has a strong son to back me up. There are only two of us in my family, so we don't dare to have a falling out with him."

Liu Haizhong, who cursed Zhao Kun in his heart, also realized the seriousness of the situation and began to waver. Facing Zhao Kun's methods and fists, he really didn't have a good response strategy, not to mention that Director Wang clearly told them that Zhao Kun was a soldier who had just retired from the front line.

A warrior who has fought on the battlefield for many years. Who knows how much blood is on his hands? If he kills himself, wouldn't the country lose a future leader?

Then the two of them returned to the courtyard in silence. The moment they entered the courtyard, the familiar smiling faces suddenly turned into indifference. Every eye that met them seemed to be avoiding them, as if they didn't see them. Such a scene was simply unimaginable in the past. In the past, whoever saw them would stop and respectfully call them "Uncle One, Uncle Two"?

The root of all trouble is Zhao Kun!

They both turned their heads and looked at the door of Zhao Kun's house, only to see a shiny new tricycle parked in front of the door. At this moment, an idea immediately came to mind.

"Old Yi, call Gao Zhi along. Strength in numbers can always get things done." Yi Zhonghai hurriedly stopped the hurried Liu Haizhong.

When Gao Zhi heard that it was Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong outside the door, he immediately cursed in his heart: You only think of me when good things happen, but when bad things happen, you drag me into the muddy water.

"Lao Yi, Lao Liu, Zhao Kun buying a car is his own business. I'm just a neighbor, how can I control him? Please don't make things difficult for me."
