Siheyuan: A journey of mountains and rivers

He Yuzhu nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Damao. We really need help now."

Xu Damao patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder and said, "You're welcome. Neighborhood relations in our courtyard are important. I will never let people like Liu Guangfu succeed."

In the following days, Xu Damao used his connections in the urban construction department to help He Yuzhu get information. He found that Liu Guangfu seemed to have someone behind him, and those documents and threats were planned. Xu Damao decided to find Liu Guangfu's backer and solve the problem thoroughly.

One day, Xu Damao heard some rumors at work that Liu Guangfu had recently been in contact with a real estate developer. This real estate developer was the middle-aged man who came to the door that day, named Li Tianhua, a very powerful person. Xu Damao immediately told He Yuzhu the news, and after discussing it, the two decided that they must find something to hold against Li Tianhua in order to make Liu Guangfu stop completely.

He Yuzhu and Xu Damao began to secretly follow Li Tianhua, looking for his weaknesses. After a period of observation, they found that Li Tianhua had a fatal weakness - corruption. Xu Damao found evidence of Li Tianhua's corruption through his connections in the urban construction department. After obtaining this evidence, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao decided to find a suitable time to expose Li Tianhua so that he could no longer support Liu Guangfu.

Just before they were about to take action, Liu Guangfu seemed to have noticed something. He brought a few people to the He family again. This time he seemed more ferocious, even with a hint of madness. He shouted to He Dahe and He Yuzhu, "I'll give you one last chance. Do you want to sell the house?"

He Dahe still shook his head firmly: "Not for sale!"

Liu Guangfu was so angry that his face turned blue. He pointed at He Dahe and said, "Don't refuse my toast! I tell you, if you don't sell the house, you will be harassed every day!"

He Yuzhu stepped forward and looked directly at Liu Guangfu: "We are no longer afraid of you. If you dare to harass us again, we will show you the real law!"

Liu Guangfu was shocked by He Yuzhu's momentum, but then he said viciously: "Okay, okay, I want to see what you can do!"

After Liu Guangfu and his men left, He Dahe looked at his son with some concern: "Yuzhu, can we really hold on if we continue to confront each other like this?"

He Yuzhu clenched his fists and said firmly: "Dad, we will definitely win! As long as we don't give up, they can't do anything to us."

The next day, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao handed the evidence to a trusted media friend and asked him to help expose Li Tianhua's corruption. The media friend quickly agreed, knowing that such news would cause a big sensation once exposed.

A few days later, the media exposed Li Tianhua's corruption scandal, and the entire urban construction department was shaken. Li Tianhua was soon investigated, and Liu Guangfu lost his biggest backer and became panicked. He came to the He family again, and this time he was no longer threatening, but begging for mercy in a low voice: "He Dahe, Yuzhu, please, let me go, I promise I will never come to trouble you again."

He Yuzhu looked at Liu Guangfu coldly: "Let you go? When you bullied us, did you ever think of letting us go?"

Liu Guangfu's face turned pale and he trembled as he said, "I, I know I was wrong. I beg you to show mercy."

He Dahe looked at his son, then at Liu Guangfu, and sighed: "Liu Guangfu, we are not unreasonable people, but you have to remember that if you dare to have evil thoughts again in the future, we will never show mercy."

Liu Guangfu nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, thank you, I will definitely change my ways!"

Liu Guangfu left in a panic, and He Yuzhu and his father finally breathed a sigh of relief. The father patted his son on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Yuzhu, this time it's all thanks to you."

He Yuzhu shook his head: "Dad, this is our home, we must protect it. As long as we are united, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome."

He Dahe nodded, his eyes gleaming with pride: "Yes, we must unite to protect our homeland."

Although He Yuzhu was relieved, he knew that Liu Guangfu might not give up even though he gave in on the surface. He decided to take more proactive actions to make Liu Guangfu lose all chances of turning things around. After a few days of thinking, he finally came up with a solution - design a trap to lure Liu Guangfu into it.

One day, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao were discussing the plan in a low voice in the yard. Xu Damao nodded and said, "Yuzhu, this plan is good, but be careful not to let Liu Guangfu see the flaws."

He Yuzhu nodded, his eyes gleaming with determination: "Brother Damao, I understand. We must make this a perfect thing, leaving Liu Guangfu with no way out."

On the day the plan was implemented, He Yuzhu deliberately discussed the house with his father loudly in the yard: "Dad, I heard that there is a new development project in the city. They are very interested in buying our house, and the price is quite high."

He Dahe cooperated and said, "Oh? Then what are you going to do?"

He Yuzhu pretended to be mysterious and said, "I want to go and take a look at the situation before deciding whether to sell it to them."

Liu Guangfu happened to pass by and heard these words. He was moved. He secretly thought: If he could get this contract before them, he could not only make a fortune, but also completely hit the He family. He decided to follow He Yuzhu and find out this so-called development project.

In the next few days, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao deliberately created a lot of illusions to make Liu Guangfu believe that they were really in contact with the developer. Liu Guangfu really took the bait, secretly followed He Yuzhu, and even bribed an old man who was watching the door to help him get information.

Finally, He Yuzhu pretended to sign a contract with a "developer" and deliberately let Liu Guangfu see it in the courtyard. Liu Guangfu was overjoyed, thinking that the opportunity had come, and immediately found the "developer" and offered to buy the contract at a higher price.

This "developer" was actually a friend of Xu Damao. He pretended to be very interested and negotiated a deal with Liu Guangfu as planned. On the day of the transaction, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao hid in the dark and saw Liu Guangfu signing the contract triumphantly, and sneered in their hearts.

Liu Guangfu thought he had gotten a great bargain, and went home smugly thinking that the He family was finished this time. Not only did he get the contract, but he also dealt a heavy blow to He Yuzhu's arrogance. However, he didn't know that all this was a trap carefully designed by He Yuzhu and Xu Damao.
