Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

After all, the yard was cleaned too clean, and the neighbors threw some broken bricks and tiles left over from building stoves and kangs in the past into the Yi family's house.

This swift and surging attack gradually came to a halt.

After Liu Haizhong threw the last brick in his hand, he saw that his two older sons didn't hand him a new one. He then looked at the Yi family's window and saw that not only was there no glass, but even the window frame was only left with a horizontal bar. Only then did he stop in disappointment.

As soon as he stopped moving, he started cursing again.

"Yi Zhonghai, you old turtle bastard son, if you had the guts, you would have led all the neighbors in our courtyard to recognize that old traitor and old prostitute as your ancestor.

Now that she's become a traitor, you have the guts to come out and admit it. Because of you, our compound will soon become the biggest laughing stock in the city.

Not to mention waiting until we go to work tomorrow, even tonight when we go to the toilet we have to avoid people, otherwise the people in other courtyards will laugh so hard that they will fall into the pit, or they will push us, the filial sons and grandsons of traitorous dogs, into the pit!

You still have the nerve to hide from us? If it were you, we should tie you up outside the compound gate so that others can point at you and scold you, and not have time to laugh at our neighbors!"

Liu Haizhong cursed and suddenly his eyes lit up. This is a good idea! Then he thought about it again. Isn't Yi Zhonghai the best at getting all the neighbors to vote?

So he quickly turned around and proposed to all the neighbors:

"Um, um, what do you think of my idea? Should we tie up Yi Zhonghai——"

"Squeak~"

Before Liu Haizhong started the vote for the whole house, the wooden door of the Yi family was opened from the inside, revealing Yi Zhonghai's upright body.

He stared at Liu Haizhong intently, as if he wanted to engrave him in his mind. Liu Haizhong remained fearless and stared back at Yi Zhonghai.

He even puffed out his chest to show that he was not afraid of him at all.

"That old Yi, we are discussing this time-"

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand to interrupt him, then looked at the neighbors and said in a deep voice:

"I, Yi Zhonghai, have been a master for more than ten years, and have devoted all my energy to the compound. I never thought that just because I misjudged the deaf old lady's character once and failed to find out in time that she was a traitor, you would destroy my house like this without any regard for the relationship between neighbors!"

"I admit defeat this time. I didn't know people well enough. It's not unfair that you guys smashed my house like this. I won't hold you responsible. It's my fault for being incompetent and not being able to find out that the deaf old lady was a traitor! But——"

Yi Zhonghai said this and turned to look at Liu Haizhong.

"You said that I knew that the deaf old lady was a traitor. I will never admit this crime and I cannot afford to admit it!

To prove my innocence, I will go to the police station now and ask the police to investigate. If they can find any suspicious points, I will admit it. I will not hesitate to be shot!"

"Only in this way can we shut up some of you and make them stop barking and spewing shit at my door!"

After hearing what he said, Liu Haizhong immediately became anxious. This was just pointing at a monk and calling him bald!

"Yi Zhonghai, are we saying that you are a traitor? We are saying that as a great master in our courtyard, you can't tell right from wrong. Not only did you fail to tell that the deaf old lady was a traitor, but you even took the lead in recognizing her as your ancestor. You have really brought shame to our courtyard—"

Before Liu Haizhong could finish speaking, Yi Zhonghai pointed at him and interrupted him in a stern voice with an excited look on his face.

"Liu Haizhong, I am responsible for this matter, I admit it!

But you didn't do anything wrong? I am a senior in the Intermediate Court. I had little contact with the deaf old lady and failed to identify her as a traitor. I accept the responsibility for not being able to kill her in time!

Liu Haizhong, as an old man in the backyard, you lived next door to the deaf old lady for twenty or thirty years and couldn't tell that she was a traitor. Don't you have any responsibility at all?

After I go to the police station, I will go to the street office to ask Director Wang to come to the compound and let her make the decision to see who is more responsible between the two of us!"

Like being struck by lightning!

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Liu Haizhong just stood there in a daze, not even noticing that Yi Zhonghai just flicked his sleeves and walked out of the compound.

Am I more responsible?

Am I more responsible?

Liu Haizhong's walnut-shaped head seemed to explode. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with Yi Zhonghai's words. He originally thought that Yi Zhonghai would just shout "ancestor" in the yard if nothing happened.

Now that his ancestor has become a traitor, he will take the opportunity to attack Yi Zhonghai. Not only will he put all the blame on him, but he will also pull him down from his position as the boss.

He finally came across such a great opportunity, and in his ecstasy he even forgot that he was the traitorous neighbor and the second uncle in the backyard.

If what Yi Zhonghai said is true, it seems that I am indeed more responsible!

What should I do? How can I shirk responsibility?

Liu Haizhong's face kept changing as he racked his brain for a countermeasure. He kept thinking about what would happen if Yi Zhonghai really called Director Wang to the compound.

A trace of regret flashed across his eyes. He should have stopped while he was ahead and pulled Yi Zhonghai down from his position as the boss.

Why did you have to smash his house and tie him up at the gate of the compound?

If you're really afraid of being scolded, why not just tie a dog to bite those alley dwellers who come to watch the fun?

I regret being so greedy. Now I’m in trouble.

Seeing his father standing there in a daze, not saying a word for a long time, with blue and red running down his face, Liu Guangfu looked at Liu Guangtian and saw that he was signaling with his eyes for him to go up.

Liu Guangfu had no choice but to muster up the courage to whisper: "Dad, the uncle is gone, he really went to the police station!"

"Snapped!"

After being woken up by Liu Guangfu, Liu Haizhong slapped him in the face with his backhand. The blow was so powerful and full of anger that Liu Guangfu took several steps back and sat on the ground.

"Is your father blind? Or am I blind and can't see it myself?

If he wants to leave, he can leave. Why should I stop him? Am I afraid of him? Besides, who told you to call him uncle? Is someone who regards traitors as his ancestors qualified to be the uncle of our hospital?

I'll beat you to death, you ignorant bastard."

With his eyes wide open like a demon-slaying arhat, Liu Haizhong pointed at Liu Guangfu and cursed him, but he still felt unsatisfied, so he untied the belt around his waist with both hands.

"Look, I'm going to beat you to death. In front of our hospital, Yi Zhonghai recognized the traitor as his ancestor, and in the back, you recognize Yi Zhonghai as your uncle..."

Liu Haizhong was still unbuckling his belt. Liu Guangtian, who was standing next to him, saw that the situation was not good. He was afraid that his father's anger would spread to his brother and reach himself, so he chose to run away immediately!

Liu Guangfu, who was still sitting on the ground, saw Liu Guangtian rubbing his feet. He didn't even bother to cover his face in pain and hurriedly got up from the ground.

Then he quickly ran to the front yard, shouting, "Brother, wait for me..."
