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

"Erlang, no matter how beautiful you are, you can't eat it. Look at your current condition, even a widow won't marry you." Yi Zhonghai's words were full of blunt reprimands without any sympathy.

Although these words were sharp, they came from the heart. In Yi Zhonghai's opinion, as long as Erlang fought back a little, Qin Huairu might not reject him again and again.

Erlang was not convinced and argued loudly: "Master, don't look down on me. With my conditions, what kind of wife can I find? Which widow dares to look down on me?"

Yi Zhonghai asked slowly: "Qin Huairu doesn't care about you." These words pierced Erlang's heart like a sword.

Er Leng was speechless for a moment, then he slowly said, "Master, it's unfair for you to say this. Others may not understand me, but you should know me, right? I take care of Sister Qin just to listen to you. I'm not like Xu Damao, who is trying to take advantage of Sister Qin."

### Siheyuan ** Resurgence

On the other side, Wang Qiang and Zhao Lei were busy in the workshop. Various rumors about Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao were heard in the workshop. Xu Damao had been enjoying himself in the countryside for a while and almost forgot that he had a virtuous wife, Lou Xiao'e, waiting for him to return home.

"Brother Wang, have you heard? Yi Zhonghai was severely beaten up by the Liu brothers because he ruined Liu Yuhua's reputation." Zhao Lei leaned close to Wang Qiang's ear and whispered.

Wang Qiang shook his head, with a helpless look in his eyes: "Yi Zhonghai has really screwed himself this time. Last time he wanted to introduce me to a girl, I slapped him in the face."

Zhao Lei's eyes widened in surprise: "What? Does he really have the guts to do that?"

"Yeah, he had a nice dream. But when he heard that Sha Zhu and Liu Yuhua didn't work out, he immediately came to me again." Wang Qiang said with a wry smile.

"This is too ridiculous. Shazhu has been beaten up like this, and he still dares to mention this matter again?" Zhao Lei sighed.

As the two chatted, Li Wen, the workshop director, came into their sight. Li Wen seemed to have noticed something about Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao, and specially called two key employees of the workshop to talk.

"Wang Qiang, you all know that Yi Zhonghai has done some outrageous things recently, right? I got a lot of information from the security department and found that he has been doing a lot of tricks behind the scenes."

Wang Qiang and Zhao Lei exchanged a meaningful look and responded in unison: "Director, we all know. He really shouldn't be allowed to succeed in this kind of thing."

Li Wen nodded, his expression serious: "Don't worry, I have already found Director Zhang, he will handle this matter. But now, we need your help to appease those colleagues who have been affected."

### Xu Damao's rural life

Meanwhile, Xu Damao, another important figure in the Siheyuan, is enjoying his new life in the countryside. He is accompanied by fine wine almost every day, and his physical fitness has been greatly improved by drinking a magical medicinal wine. In the countryside, he is no longer troubled by the complicated household chores in the city, but can show his strong physical strength and charm in front of his old friends.

"Da Mao, you are really different this time." An old friend in the village exclaimed.

Xu Damao smiled proudly and said, "This is all thanks to Wang Qiang's bottle of medicinal wine. I used to be as tired as a dog in the city.

Lou Xiao'e was at home, and asked the two little girls to wash their hands in the basin and prepare to sit down to eat. Huilin stared at the sumptuous dishes on the table, and could hardly move her feet; while the two little girls looked at the delicious food with their mouths watering, their eyes flashing with desire.

After her family's money was leaked, the attitude of the neighbors in the yard took a sharp turn for the worse, and no one felt sorry for her anymore. The family's daily expenses were all supported by money, and they could no longer borrow things from each other like before. And ** became a poor man again, unable to help the family financially, and Zhao Zhonghai became stingy after losing a large sum of money.

While external income decreased, the family's expenses increased. When the residents in the courtyard learned that the manager was no longer in charge, they became bolder, took back the money originally donated to their family, and enjoyed themselves. Seeing others eat well, Huilin felt even more aggrieved, and also wanted to eat something good at home.

Her savings were almost gone, and she urgently needed to find a new financial support. Among the people in the courtyard, the most suitable candidate was Wang Kun. However, Wang Kun's attitude towards her was always cold. Not only did he refuse to talk to her, he didn't even think about borrowing money from her.

In order to save Zhao Zhonghai's face, she was too embarrassed to speak to Wang Kun in front of him. Now that Zhao Zhonghai and ** were not at home, she was determined to give it a try.

"Wang Kun, my family hasn't had good food for a long time, and I don't have any money now. Can you lend us some meat? Don't worry, I will definitely return it to you when I buy the meat."

As he spoke, he gently pushed the two little girls to the front, hoping that Wang Kun would have sympathy for them because of their pitiful appearance.

Wang Kun certainly noticed the two timid little girls, hiding tightly behind Hui Lin. The two children couldn't eat much, but was this really for the two children? Her eyes were cunning, and she was obviously planning to use the children to gain sympathy.

"Hui Lin, don't act like this! I've said it before, as long as you don't bother me, I won't mind your business. If you really bother me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Without waiting for her to continue pestering him, Wang Kun closed the door.

Hui Lin stared at the closed door, raised her hand and then put it down. Zhao Zhonghai was not at home, no one would come forward to help her, and everyone in the yard just watched coldly.

At Tian Youfu's home, he stopped Xiaowei who was about to go to Wang Kun's home: "Xiaowei, let's eat at home today."

His wife complained, "Can't Huilin be quiet for a few days? She has just been at peace for a while and now she is making trouble again. Their family is obviously not short of money, so why does she always want to take advantage of others?"

Tian Youfu asked Xiaowei to sit down: "Taking advantage has become her habit, and being honest has become a strange thing. I heard that her salary was deducted more than ten yuan this month."

“Why was so much deducted?”

"Haven't you noticed that the old man and Hui Lin have both arrived at work early recently? Although the old man is an eighth-level worker, the factory director, Mr. Yang, doesn't trust him. He doesn't have a high status in the workshop. Who will pamper them?"

Tian Youfu's wife hesitated for a moment and said, "What do you think of Wang Kun and Lou Xiao'e..."

Li Ming interrupted her: "What happened to them? It's just neighbors helping each other. Liu Dali himself doesn't care at all, why do you have to make so much trouble? Let Mengmeng live in Lao Wang's house these days!"

The residents of the courtyard were always busy. Whenever Liu Dali went out to show a movie, Tang Xiaona would go back to her parents' home to visit. When they saw that she didn't go back, everyone started to talk about it.

Li Ming's wife just wanted to explain to Li Ming and ask him to remind Lao Wang to pay more attention to the image of the yard.

But remembering that Liu Dali still often stayed at Lao Wang's house after returning to the yard, she said no more.

The Sun family saw through what Chen Huairu was doing at Old Wang's house, and the whole family hid in the house to watch the fun, without anyone coming out.

Sun Jie said to his sister Sun Di, "Didi, don't stay at home like a fool. Take Xiaoxue and Mengmeng to play when you have time. Maybe you can also go to Lao Wang's house to taste the delicious food."

Sun Di looked up at his brother and said, "Third brother, if I play with Xiaoxue, can I really go to her house and eat delicious food?"

Sun Cheng agreed, "Of course you can. Look at Chen Huairu. He even sent his own daughter to do it. It won't hurt if you give it a try."

Sun Di nodded and decided to try it tomorrow. She had been craving for the delicious food in Xiaoxue's hand every day. But Xiaoxue only played with Mengmeng and occasionally took care of Xiaoliang. It was difficult for other children to get any benefits.

Sun's father watched silently from the side without saying much, thinking that his own child could also give it a try.

Chen Huairu took Xiaofang and Xiaohong home, and as expected, was scolded by Jia Zhang.

"Huai Ru, this is easy to say. Who in our yard can take advantage of Lao Wang? The third uncle guards the door every day, but he didn't take advantage of him. I really have no choice."

Chen Huairu always felt powerless when facing Lao Wang. She couldn't understand why Lao Wang looked down on her when she hadn't changed. Lao Wang only had a leg injury and no other injuries. Other good men were eager to embrace her, but Lao Wang was the only one who disdained her.

Jia Zhang sighed, "Huai Ru, why don't you go find Zhou Haiyang and ask him to donate some money to our family. If this goes on, how can we live? I don't mind, but Xiao Ming can't stand it. Look at how hungry Xiao Ming has been recently."

Chen Huairu suddenly remembered that Zhou Haiyang said that money was missing from his home a few days ago. He suspected that Xiao Ming did it, but he didn't dare to make it public.

"Xiao Ming, let me ask you, did you go to Grandpa's house to get money a few days ago?"

Jia Zhang glared at Chen Huairu and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Xiao Ming is such a good kid, how could he go to Zhou Haiyang's house to steal money?"

"Mom, my great grandfather lost a few hundred dollars a few days ago."

After hearing that Zhou Haiyang had lost more than 400 yuan, Jia Zhang no longer protected Xiao Ming. "Xiao Ming, my dear grandson, if you take out the money, grandma will buy you something delicious."

Xiao Ming cried aggrievedly: "I really didn't take it!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't believe Xiao Ming's words at all. They took turns interrogating him for more than half an hour, and finally determined that it was not Xiao Ming who did it.

"Chen Huairu, go tell that scoundrel that our Xiao Ming didn't take his money, and don't frame us!"

Xiao Ming didn't dare to attack Jia Zhang and Chen Huairu, so he had to turn his anger to Zhou Haiyang. "Mom, go tell him that I don't want anything from their family!"

Chen Huairu's face turned pale: "Xiao Ming, who did you learn these words from?"

Xiao Ming came closer to Jia Zhangshi: "I learned it in school."

Jia Zhang didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said. She protected Xiao Ming and prevented Chen Huairu from blaming him.

Chen Huairu felt sorry for her son and could only warn him not to blindly learn from others. In fact, she didn't want Xiao Ming to learn from Jia Zhang. Now no one in the family likes them, and all this is because of Jia Zhang.
