Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

Chapter 118 Everyone depends on their ability

"Second uncle, if it weren't for us, you have to turn the tide. I'll just cheer you on from below. After all, you have to listen to the voices of the masses. And once you've sorted out the matter and dealt with it, then you'll be in the position of the uncle..."

"Okay...Okay...I'll call a meeting later. Xingwang, don't worry, I won't forget you when I become a great uncle."

Liu Haizhong was now becoming impatient, thinking that the identity of a great master was already in his pocket.

Zhang Xingwang listened and shook his head. It was hard to describe how cunning the Second Uncle was. He couldn't even drown an ant, and he was famous for having a bad memory.

But no matter how much I think about it, I have to remind him that with the two taels of waste water in his stomach, Yi Zhonghai might be able to make a comeback.

He said earnestly:

"Have you thought about what to say at the meeting?"

"Why not just ask him directly?"

"That won't work. You have to start from somewhere else. Otherwise, Yi Zhonghai is very good at talking. If he refuses to admit it and keeps making up stories, there will be nothing we can do."

"Then you tell me what to do. I'll listen to you."

"We have to start with the matter of the aunt and the child, and use the reputation of the compound. Don't forget, this time we are talking about three people. Yi Zhonghai may be able to keep his composure, but Jia Zhang, that hot-tempered woman, will definitely jump out..."

The two continued to plot for a while, and the second aunt looked at the asymmetrical and sinister smiles of the two men, one big and one small. They looked exactly like a little black fox and an old Tibetan fox, and I felt that they could barely match the plot in the play. I originally wanted to help Guaji Guaji, but in the end, it was not quite right.

After hearing the second uncle say that he would memorize his lines overnight and hold a meeting tomorrow to deal with Yi Zhonghai, Zhang Xingwang went home contentedly to sleep.

This time, he ignored the fourth sister's eyes that were eager for gossip, but sat at the dining table and waved to the fourth sister and said:

"Ruonan, how are you studying recently? Are you sure you can skip a grade? Don't worry about the trivial things in the neighborhood all the time. You have to study hard, so that you can go to college in the future and contribute to society. Don't be like me, your brother, and become useless to society."

Unexpectedly, the fourth sister said nonchalantly after hearing this:

"Brother, I have almost finished my review recently, and the teacher knows that I skipped a grade. He said that I can take the third grade exam directly at the end of the semester. He also said that there might be no third grade starting next year, so I should seize the opportunity."

Zhang Xingwang pointed at his fourth sister for a long time without saying anything, feeling upset. Then he went straight back to his room, laid down comfortably in a "Tai" shape, and fell asleep.

The next day, Zhang Xingwang woke up naturally and took a nice day off. He played with the little girl for the whole morning and strolled around the yard. He saw that Sha Zhu's house was almost finished, and the people in the yard had gone to work, but the deaf old lady was not there. It was said that she had gone to the matchmaker's house early to block the door.

He was just sighing that a beautiful day started from an idle morning, but then Xu Damao, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, appeared and called him just when he was about to enter the house.

Xu Damao looked exhausted, probably just came back from the countryside, so he called Zhang Xingwang and asked him to go home for a meal, saying he had something to tell him. Seeing the other party's serious look, curious Zhang Xingwang agreed.

When I arrived at Xu Damao's house at noon, the dishes had already been cooked. It must be said that Xu Damao is quite good at cooking. When I put three home-cooked dishes on the table, I knew that his family was well off: one was cabbage with bacon, one was cold-boiled radish, and the last one, the scrambled eggs, was really amazing.

Eggs are hard to find these days. You can still see them in the village, but if you want to buy them in the city, it depends on what you do. In the yard, except for people like Liu Haizhong who do heavy physical labor, it is really hard to see them for others.

I just heard the aunties in the Central Courtyard say that a few more things need to be purchased with tickets recently, and eggs will probably be even harder to find in the future.

Seeing how enthusiastic they were, Zhang Xingwang couldn't be bad either. Thinking that today's events would be in the evening, and seeing Xu Damao's expression, it seemed that there would be some happy event. As the two of them wanted to drink less, he reached out and took out a bottle of wine from "behind their backs". After they sat down, they started eating and drinking with their arms around each other's shoulders.

Xu Damao came back from the village today. As soon as he entered the city, he was stopped by people from the Lou family. They asked him about Zhang Xingwang's situation in a roundabout way. Xu Damao was very smart and he realized in an instant that things were not that simple. He couldn't get any information out of them.

On the way back, I thought about it and figured it out. Since the Lou family could inquire about Zhang Xingwang, it must be related to Lou Xiao'e. As for other matters, Zhang Xingwang was not qualified to ask about them.

He also thought back to his last failed engagement and wondered if Zhang Xingwang was behind it. Shazhu was just a little clever at best, and it seemed like he was being used as a tool by Zhang Xingwang last time.

Passing the news to Zhang Xingwang this time can be regarded as repaying the other party for reminding him of the unpleasantness of this third way. Anyway, the other party is really familiar with the director of the hospital, and he will know it sooner or later, and it will not be concealed for long.

Originally, Lou Xiao'e was the dish in his bowl. If it weren't for the unspeakable secret that had not yet been healed, he would have done whatever it took to sabotage her.

Other things would be fine, but Lou Xiao'e herself would never give up her. After all, she was the wife he was going to get, and her family was so rich.

I have to find a way to get her back when I am almost recovered. After all, when I was with Lou Xiao'e, the Lou family would definitely investigate me, and I couldn't hide the fact that I had a medical consultation from them.

I thought that if I told the news during the meal, the two of us would be separated. I would have done my best. I would have to trip up Zhang Xingwang later.

After they had just had a few drinks, Xu Damao came clean and said to Zhang Xingwang with a tentative expression:

"Xingwang, I have some news for you this time. Do you have any thoughts about my previous partner?"

Zhang Xingwang was puzzled and thought, I just had this idea yesterday, and you know it today?

It seems that this meal is not easy to digest, so I tried to say half-truthfully:

"Da Mao, I have run into Lou Xiao'e a few times by chance. How do you know this?"

"To be honest, I haven't even returned home yet, and the Lou family has been asking me for information about you. I'm telling you, we are even this time. From now on, we will just have to rely on our own abilities."

Zhang Xingwang had probably figured out what was going on. He guessed that Xu Damao was still thinking about Lou Xiao'e and regarded him as an opponent. However, he didn't think that the other party had done anything wrong. He just thought that what he did this time was just that of a real villain.

As for the Lou family's inquiries about him, he didn't take it seriously. He thought that it was probably because the mistress didn't explain it clearly when she went back, and his thoughts had changed, so it was okay for them to inquire about him. He would explain it to them next time he had a chance to meet.
