The sound of the quarrel still alarmed the residents in the courtyard, and they all came out of the yard to check the situation.

Although the courtyard house that He Daqing rented was not as spacious as No. 95 Nanluoguxiang, it was still a courtyard house with two entrances, and more than a dozen families lived in it! In total, there were about fifty people.

In this age of lack of entertainment, family gossips and quarrels can be regarded as fun, and the show put on by the White Widow is simply a "big show".

Of course, as one of the tenants of this courtyard house, there were naturally people who knew He Daqing.

"Xiao He, what are you doing?"

"Why are you still arguing at the gate? Aren't we making fun of ourselves for the benefit of others? Hurry up and go into the yard. We can help you sort out any conflicts."

Hearing these words, He Daqing couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

"You don't want to mediate the conflict at all. You just want to watch the fun." He muttered to himself.

But after all, social etiquette is more important, and he couldn't directly point out the other person's thoughts. He could only smile bitterly and nod to show his agreement.

Widow Bai seemed to be missing a brain. She really thought that the man who spoke wanted to help her. She stood up without hesitation and said excitedly: "Master, I see that you are also a reasonable person. Then please give us women some justice!"

As she spoke, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

The White Widow is only in her early thirties, an age when she still has her charm.

Which man could resist such a pretentious attitude? The strong desire to protect her instantly surged in his heart.

The man who had just spoken clapped his hands vigorously, and then boasted confidently: "You must be Xiao He's wife. My name is Wang Baoguo, and I am the manager of this courtyard. If you have any grievances, feel free to tell me. If it is really Xiao He's fault, let's criticize him together. How can you let your wife suffer grievances? How can this be disgraceful!"

When Widow Bai lived in Baoding, she also lived in a slum, so she was naturally well aware of the position of "manager".

Please don't look down on this so-called "manager". Although he is essentially just a liaison officer selected during the military control period, in daily compound life, his status is comparable to that of the village chief. He can be regarded as the real boss in the compound!

After hearing that the other party was actually the "steward", her eyes immediately lit up, and the tears on her face instantly disappeared, replaced by a delicate and charming smile, and she said in a coquettish tone: "Oh, so you are the famous steward, a real big leader! You are a magnanimous person, you must help us poor orphans and widows~"

He Daqing couldn't help but frown at her words, and cursed in his heart: "Damn bitch, I'm still alive and well, how can there be an orphan and a widow? What an idiot! Well, you're so cruel. If I wasn't afraid of being laughed at by others, I would beat you up today!"

When Wang Baoguo heard what Widow Bai said, he felt as comfortable as a spring breeze. He put his strong hands behind his back, straightened his back, and really put on the style of a leader.

He laughed and said, "Hahaha, since we are all neighbors living in the same yard from now on, then we are all one family! If anyone is wronged here, it will naturally be up to me, the old man in charge, to mediate! Okay, don't just stand outside and talk like an idiot! I see that you guys just moved in, right? You have quite a bit of luggage with you!"

At this point, Wang Baoguo paused for a moment, then turned around and shouted to the other residents: "Come on, come on, everyone, lend a hand and help Xiao He's wife pack these luggage. She came from Baoding! Let's not talk about how far the journey is. Just say that she is a weak woman who has traveled through mountains and rivers with her two sons to get here. She must have suffered a lot along the way. So, we can't just watch a woman stand here and suffer! Everyone, hurry up and take action!"

In this era, most people are simple and kind at heart.

Although some people like to laugh at others and some like to talk bad about others behind their backs, when neighbors need help, no one will shirk responsibility.

Hearing Wang Baoguo say this, everyone came forward to help move the White Widow's luggage into the house.

In fact, the White Widow didn't bring much luggage, and she could handle it easily even without help from others.

Therefore, the only people who really helped her move things were the few people who rushed to the front at the beginning. This scene was really a bit funny.

However, the White Widow was very happy. She jumped up excitedly and said to Wang Baoguo in a coquettish voice, "Thank you, Uncle Wang!" Her voice was full of gratitude and joy.

Wang Baoguo frowned and raised his eyebrows: "Ah ha? Why call me uncle? Call me Brother Wang."

Hearing this, He Daqing was so angry that his face turned red, but he didn't dare to do anything to Wang Baoguo, so he could only remain silent.

After everything was settled, Wang Baoguo's face suddenly became serious. He frowned at He Daqing and said, "Xiao He, I have to talk to you about this. I also heard from my sister-in-law that Bai Meizi did nothing wrong. Do you have to be so angry? When there was a conflict at home, you didn't think about uniting to solve the problem externally, but instead acted like a tyrant at home. This is not okay!"

Widow Bai hid behind Wang Baoguo and cautiously poked her head out to agree, "Yes, Brother Wang is absolutely right! He is a bully at home."

"I won't say much about other things, let's just talk about Lao He's house. After all, this shouldn't be decided by a younger generation, right? Lao He is still alive and well, shouldn't all family matters be discussed together? How can you put all the blame on the three of us?"

"Brother Wang, do you think this is true?"

The White Widow's voice is so sweet that it seems to drip with honey, which makes people imagine endlessly.

She knew how to read men's minds, and knew which words would make them happy and which would annoy them. With just a few words, she had successfully made Wang Baoguo smile.

"Yes, yes, that's right!" Wang Baoguo laughed and felt very happy.

However, his gaze immediately fell on He Daqing's face, and his expression instantly became serious again.

"Xiao He, you are clearly in the wrong in this matter. Hurry up and apologize to your sister-in-law, otherwise I, Brother Wang, will call a meeting of the whole hospital to criticize you. Then no one will be able to stand it, and someone might even beat you up."

Wang Baoguo threatened, his tone carrying a hint of unquestionable majesty.
