Siheyuan: After traveling through time, who can still be an honest person?

In the end, Sha Zhu borrowed five dollars from He Yushui and happily gave it to Qin Huairu to use as money to buy gifts and round-trip tickets.

The next day, Qin Huairu took a leave and went back to her hometown, and made an appointment with Qin Jingru to come to Siheyuan again on the second day of the New Year.

Sha Zhu was a little disappointed, but since it had been decided, at least there would be no unexpected changes.

Time quickly arrived and it was New Year's Eve.

In the morning, Yan Bugui and Yi Zhonghai pasted Spring Festival couplets on both sides of the door of the compound.

Ever since Yi Zhonghai bought bicycle wheels for Yan Bugui and tried to please him, the relationship between the two began to thaw and eased a lot.

Yi Zhonghai held the paste and looked at the Spring Festival couplets written by Yan Bugui, praising:

"Uncle, your handwriting is really good. The Spring Festival couplets posted in the nearby courtyards are not as good as ours."

Yan Bugui was very pleased with the flattery and looked very pleased with himself:

"This is what we call a person's handwriting reflects his personality, and a person's handwriting reflects his personality. The quality of calligraphy and painting comes first. A person's integrity, character, mind, and pursuit can all be seen from his handwriting."

Yi Zhonghai resisted the urge to vomit and complained in his heart: "It's hard to tell whether this word is stingy or not."

I complained in my heart but kept praising it out loud.

At this time, Xu Damao came back riding his bicycle.

"Master."

"Hey, Damao, you gain a lot every day!"

Yan Bugui's eyes lit up when he saw the local specialties hanging on the front and back of Xu Damao's car.

Xu Damao smiled and said, "It's almost the New Year, I show movies to people everywhere, and they see how hard I work, so they reward me with some mountain products."

As he spoke, he took out two strings of mushrooms and garlic and handed them over.

Yan Bugui took it skillfully and was very satisfied with Xu Damao's understanding.

Yi Zhonghai was secretly sulking.

Ever since his uncle was dismissed from his position, Xu Damao simply ignored him every time he saw him.

This time it was even more excessive. He only tried to please Yan Bugui in person, but didn't even give in to him.

Xu Damao brought various mountain products into the house, and felt quite pleased when he saw the table piled high with New Year's goods.

In this age of food and drink shortage, being able to tinker with so many things is not something that ordinary people can do.

Xu Damao was feeling very proud of himself when Lou Xiao'e walked out of the house.

Looking at Lou Xiao'e, whose skin became fairer and more beautiful, a lewd look flashed in Xu Damao's eyes.

"Xiao E, I'll give you half of these things. You can take them home to honor your parents."

Lou Xiao'e didn't even raise her eyelids and said coldly, "I don't want it, you can keep it for yourself."

Xu Damao laughed and said, "Why are you being so formal? After all, we are still husband and wife."

Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes and said, "Give me half, right? I'll give it to Cao Yue later."

The smile on Xu Damao's face disappeared.

He was not a fool, so he could naturally see that there was a problem between Cao Yue and Lou Xiao'e.

But he had too many handles on Cao Yue and couldn't punish him. Besides, he had lost interest in Lou Xiao'e, the hen that didn't lay eggs, so he turned a blind eye.

However, as he watched Lou Xiao'e become more and more beautiful, Xu Damao began to feel itchy again.

"Xiao E, my parents mentioned you last time and said that you haven't been to their place for several years."

Lou Xiao'e sneered, "Xu Damao, put away your little thoughts. We are not interfering with each other now. If you dare to cause trouble, someone will naturally take care of you."

Hearing this naked threat, Xu Damao was angry but did not dare to show it.

He smiled and said, "Xiao E, don't get me wrong. It's just that you haven't been to my parents' house in the past few years, and the neighbors are gossiping. I want you to go there once this year, and then go back to your parents' house to celebrate the New Year."

Lou Xiao'e shook her head and said, "I won't go. Whatever others think is none of my business."

After saying that, she went back to her room and closed the door.

Xu Damao stared at the door, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

……

Security Section.

Cao Yue was looking at the New Year's duty roster when the office door was suddenly pushed open.

When I looked up, Gao Lisheng ran in with excitement on his face.

"Chief, Sha Zhu beat up Deputy Director Li in the cafeteria."

"Oh, was the beating severe?" Cao Yue put down the duty roster, raised his hand and pointed at the door and asked.

Gao Lisheng turned around and closed the door, then sat opposite Cao Yue and said happily:

"He got hit several times, and his eyes were all black and blue. I heard it was because he molested Qin Huairu from your school."

Cao Yue shook his head.

As soon as Sha Zhu encountered Qin Huairu's incident, his IQ dropped like a slide and instantly became negative.

This time it was Deputy Director Li who was in the wrong and he didn't dare to make a big deal out of it, as he would definitely be retaliated against after the storm had died down.

In the past, Director Yang protected him, but after the new year, Director Yang couldn't protect himself, so he had to suffer.

……

night.

Cao Yue made dumplings at home and cooked a large table of dishes.

In the past two years, Su Rong accompanied me during the Chinese New Year. This year, Su Rong is in the south. We talked on the phone two days ago and it will take several months for her to come back.

Cao Yue poured a glass of rice wine and just took a sip when He Yushui pushed the door in with a smile on her face.

"Yushui? Why are you here?" Cao Yue asked in surprise.

He Yushui pouted and said unhappily, "My brother is spending the New Year with Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu this year. I don't like being with them, so I said I want to spend the New Year alone. But I thought you would be lonely, so I came to keep you company."

In this era, it takes great courage for He Yushui to do this.

After all, Cao Yue is already in a relationship.

However, Cao Yue had already announced to the public that he had accepted He Yushui as his godsister, so this excuse could shut up some people.

He Yushui went to the kitchen to get bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses.

Cao Yue filled her glass and said with a smile, "This yellow wine warms your stomach. Drink a few more cups."

He Yushui spent the New Year alone with Cao Yue, and she couldn't suppress her excitement.

After Cao Yue's constant PUA in the past few years, as well as his outstanding abilities, she had already been completely devoted to him.

……

The next morning.

Although he had been busy all night, Cao Yue still woke up early feeling refreshed.

Now he sleeps two or three hours, and his sleep quality catches up with the previous seven or eight hours.

After Cao Yue got up and washed, he suddenly heard some noise outside.

He opened the door and saw Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu's three children standing stealthily at the door of Xu Damao's house.

After a while, Shazhu used an iron bar to pry open the bolt and opened the door. Banggeng and his two sisters tiptoed into the room carrying basins and chopsticks.

Xu Damao is sleeping in.

Banggeng and his two sisters went to the bed and found that Lou Xiao'e was not there. They looked at each other, a little at a loss.

Although they were young, they knew that Lou Xiao'e was soft-hearted and generous. On the other hand, Xu Damao was calculating and cunning.

When it comes to Cao Yue and Yan Bugui, especially the former, Xu Damao has always been generous.

But for other ordinary residents, don't even think about taking advantage of him.

Xiao Dang was afraid of Xu Damao and whispered, "Brother, what should we do if Xiao E's wife is not here?"

Bang Geng said: "Don't be afraid, there is Sha Zhu outside, he won't dare to attack us."

As he spoke, Bang Geng shouted one, two, three, and the three brothers and sisters knelt down and shouted:

"We wish you a happy new year."

Xu Damao was woken up and opened his eyes sleepily. When he saw that it was the three Banggeng siblings, he said unhappily:

"How did you get in? Get out now."

"Uncle Damao, Uncle Damao, the Spring Festival has arrived, Aunt Xiao'e, Aunt..."

"Get the hell out of here!"

As soon as he heard the word "Xiao E", Xu Damao immediately became furious.

"Brother..." Xiaodang and Huaihua were frightened.

Banggeng knocked on the basin with chopsticks and continued to shout: "One yuan is too little, two yuan is too little, three or five yuan is just right. If you don't give it to me, I don't want it, and you won't be able to hold the baby."

"Who taught you that? Are you stupid? I have to teach you a lesson today."

Not having children is Xu Damao's biggest weakness. Bang Geng actually dared to threaten him with this matter. Xu Damao was so angry that he got out of bed and was ready to hit him.

Seeing that things were not going well, Banggeng quickly stood up and ran out with his two sisters.

……

"Stupid uncle, your idea didn't work. Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would have been beaten."

After Bang Geng came out, he looked at Sha Zhu with dissatisfaction.

Sha Zhu cried out: "This is not my fault. How would I know Lou Xiao'e was not at home?"

"Well, Cao Yue is the last one left. He is the richest. You kowtow to him and ask for two yuan each."

When he heard about going to Cao Yue's house, even the fearless Bang Geng hesitated.

"Don't be afraid. It's New Year's Day and everyone wants good luck. He's a leader, so if you kowtow to him and say festive words, he won't scold you."

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, he sneakily brought Bang Geng to Cao Yue's door.

I pushed the door gently, but it didn't open. It must have been bolted.

Sha Zhu took out an iron bar and planned to use the same trick to open the bolt.

He pushed hard a few times but the doors didn't open. He slowly pushed the two doors, leaving a gap two fingers wide. He was just about to use the iron bar to pick the bolts again.

Sudden.

The two doors were flung open.

Sha Zhu staggered and was about to fall into the house.

At this time, Cao Yue used his hands to support and press just right.

Sha Zhu didn't fall down, but he knelt outside the threshold.
