Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

There was no other way, so the police went to the courtyard to find Wang Yan again and told her to ask Xu Damao to go to the police station after he came back. Wang Yan didn't know what had happened, so she asked the police, but they refused to reveal anything.

Wang Yan waited for more than a day before Xu Damao rode his bicycle home. As soon as she got home, Wang Yan quickly told him about the police coming to her house to look for Xu Damao, and then asked, "Damo, I heard that Shazhu hasn't come home for two or three days. Did something happen to him?"

Xu Damao's face showed just the right amount of shock and surprise. "I don't know. I've been running around the countryside these past few days."

Wang Yan couldn't see anything, but she was really worried that Xu Damao would do something stupid because of impulse. "Da Mao, you must remember that you have a wife and children at home, so you must not do anything stupid!"

Xu Damao held Wang Yan's hand and patted it gently. "It's okay, don't worry. I don't know what happened to Sha Zhu. Okay, don't worry. I'll go to the police station now."

After saying that, Xu Damao walked out of the door. Wang Yan looked at Xu Damao's back worriedly. Little Shitou seemed to sense his mother's worry, and his little hands pulled his mother's clothes from behind.

After Xu Damao left the courtyard, he went to the police station. In the courtyard, after knowing that Sha Zhu was hospitalized, only Yi Zhonghai went to visit him once, and no one went to the hospital again after that.

The deaf old lady did care about Sha Zhu, but her legs and feet were not very strong, so she could not go to the hospital by herself and could only worry at home.

Xu Damao came to the police station, gave his name, and was then taken to the interrogation room, where two police officers began questioning him.

Although Xu Damao was very scared, he still honestly told the two police officers about his recent whereabouts. The two police officers looked at each other and thought that if what Xu Damao said was true, then this man did not have the time to commit the crime.

Of course, this required them to go to the countryside to investigate. When Xu Damao came out of the inquiry room, his face was pale and his forehead was covered with cold sweat, but he still bravely asked the public security comrades about Sha Zhu's situation. The public security comrades only said that he was beaten, and did not disclose other information involving Sha Zhu's privacy.

In the inquiry room, Xu Damao talked about the conflict between him and Sha Zhu. Of course, he did not mention the fact that he was infertile because he was afraid of being embarrassed. He just said that they often fought and quarreled in the courtyard. This was something that everyone in the courtyard knew, and the public security comrades would know it if they went to ask.

After coming out of the police station, Xu Damao squatted against the wall for a long time as if he was exhausted before he regained some strength.

So Xu Damao slowly walked back, and the public security department had already sent people to investigate the situation in several places where Xu Damao had recently visited.

When Xu Damao returned to the courtyard, Jia Zhang was spreading the news that Xu Damao was called by the police because he had done something bad.

Xu Damao was not in the mood to pay attention to her. He just walked through the central courtyard silently. When he returned home, Xu Damao lay on the bed, thinking about Sha Zhu's matter.

Although he hated Sha Zhu to death, he had not yet had the chance to find someone to deal with him.

Now Sha Zhu has been beaten, and it must have been quite severe, otherwise the police would not have been alerted.

Who hit Shazhu? This puzzled Xu Damao.

Just as Xu Damao was lost in thought, rumors were already flying around the courtyard, portraying Xu Damao as a villain who had done all kinds of evil.

Wang Yan was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she couldn't go out and argue with this group of people. Xu Damao was obviously in a bad state, so Wang Yan had to stay at home and watch over him.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was time to get off work in the afternoon. The police who had gone to the countryside to investigate also returned to the police station and proved that Xu Damao had not lied. He had really been in the countryside and had no time to commit the crime.

As a result, the case was at an impasse again. Xu Damao had no idea what was going on, but he still had to live his life.

After dinner, Xu Damao had recovered and was playing with his son. Wang Yan was cooking in the kitchen, looking out of the window from time to time. Her son's laughter made her feel at ease.

After get off work, Yi Zhonghai also heard the rumors in the yard. He thought about it and realized that Xu Damao was called to the police station because of the beating of Sha Zhu.

But Xu Damao returned home safely, which shows that this matter has nothing to do with Xu Damao.

But who could be so cruel? Thinking of the doctor's words, Yi Zhonghai shuddered.

Sha Zhu hasn't married yet, and the He family has no offspring. Now that Sha Zhu can't have children, won't the He family be the same as him? Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai felt refreshed for some reason.

Two days passed like this, and everything in the courtyard returned to normal. The relationship between Xu Damao and Xiao Shitou became better and better.

That evening, Xu Damao came home from get off work. As soon as he entered the house, he said to Wang Yan, "Wife, take a day off tomorrow. Let's take the kids to visit my parents."

Wang Yan was a little hesitant. The difficulties she had experienced at Xu Damao's parents were still fresh in her mind, and she really didn't want to go.

Xu Damao knew his wife’s concerns, but times had changed and his parents would definitely not make things difficult for her again.

"Daughter-in-law, don't worry, my parents won't make things difficult for you."

Wang Yan had no choice but to agree.

Early the next morning, Xu Damao set off with his wife and children.

Although Xu Damao's parents also lived in Sijiucheng, they were far away from the Siheyuan. After Xu Damao got married, Xu Fugui moved to the Xu family's old house with his wife and daughter.

This time, Xu Damao took his children and wife to visit his parents' home. The old man asked someone to bring a letter to Xu Damao, asking them to go back.

An hour and a half later, Xu Damao rode his bicycle into an alley and stopped in front of a small courtyard.

"Wife, go knock on the door."

Wang Yan knocked on the door of Xu's house while holding the child. Soon, a pair of brisk footsteps came running over, and then the door opened, and a girl of about fourteen or fifteen appeared in front of her.

"Brother, sister-in-law, you are here." This is Xu Damao's sister Xu Lingling, who is in junior high school at the time.

"Lingling, let's go in." Wang Yan took Xu Lingling into the yard, and Xu Damao followed behind pushing his bicycle.

At this moment, two people walked out of the room. They were Xu Fugui and Xu's mother. When Xu's mother saw Wang Yan, she changed her cold attitude and greeted her warmly.

"My daughter-in-law is here, come in and sit down."

Wang Yan was flattered and looked back at Xu Damao. Xu Damao nodded, and Wang Yan followed him into the house.

Xu Damao knew why his parents were so enthusiastic, and he was happy to see it.

Soon the laughter of Xu's mother and children could be heard in the room. Xu Damao wanted to go in and take a look, but was stopped by a look from Xu Fugui.
