Siheyuan: Since 51

Middle Court.

Crabs shed their shells, same old thing.

However, Yi Zhonghai had a smile on his face and looked extremely relaxed.

At the door of Jia's house.

Jia Zhang was sitting on a stool, holding the sole of a shoe in her hand.

Others could say that she was sewing shoe soles, but she was making patina.

It is common to spend a year to mend a pair of shoes.

Next to him, Xu Fugui also looked calm. I am right, so what's there to be afraid of? The advantage is mine.

The rest of the people sat in two or three circles, also having a good time.

There's nothing I can do about it; there aren't many entertainment activities these days.

The man drank and boasted, while the woman talked endlessly about family gossip.

All that's left is to make children.

The key point is that you can’t just create a child whenever you want.

That thing, after a long time, people can’t stand it!

Lin Zhiyuan can stand firm in the courtyard and no one dares to provoke him.

As for Qin Huairu, she had someone behind her, so she was not afraid of anyone and sat on the south side corridor with a look of anticipation on her face.

Whenever there is a meeting in the compound, it is even more interesting than showing a movie.

It means that all the melon seeds have been eaten. Otherwise, it would be a real enjoyment to eat them while eating melon seeds.

Yi Zhonghai remained calm, reached out to pick up the can and took a sip of tea.

Yan Bugui was quick to act and took back his enamel pot.

Yi Zhonghai was stunned when he caught a glimpse of this scene. He remembered the two jars that he had broken and then rusted into holes. He pursed his lips and felt a little regretful that he had knocked them too hard before.

Liu Haizhong stood up first and presided over the meeting.

"Now that everyone is here, let's have a meeting! Today, the glass of Xu Fugui's house was broken. What kind of behavior is this? In a big way, it is destroying the house. In a small way, it is also destroying other people's property. So, we have to hold a meeting..."

Lin Zhiyuan had no idea where Liu Haizhong got so excited after talking about the same thing over and over again.

Three minutes later, Yi Zhonghai could no longer sit still and had to interrupt.

There is no way. Everything was going well at the beginning, but the condemning words in Liu Hai’s mouth became more and more harsh. If he continued to speak, the public anger would not be appeased unless the deaf old lady died.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After coughing a few times, seeing Liu Haizhong stop, Yi Zhonghai stood up and took over the conversation.

"It's not that serious."

First he set the tone, then he looked around at everyone and let out a long sigh.

"It all started with what happened last night. Xu Fugui deliberately led the way under the guise of telling a story. The deaf old lady couldn't stand it, so the glass was smashed. The old lady is old and has always been kind to others, so she was a little impulsive."

After a brief pause, he looked at the deaf old lady and Xu Fugui, and tried to smooth things over with a smile.

"How about this, both sides take a step back. The old lady will pay for the glass, Xu Fugui, you don't have to argue with the old lady."

Yi Zhonghai handled the situation with ease and the deaf old lady remained calm and composed.

When Lin Zhiyuan saw this, he knew that Xu Fugui was going to suffer a loss.

Sure enough, the deaf old lady slowly stood up with the help of a cane, her tone filled with anger.

"Xu Fugui, old lady, I have seen all kinds of people since the Republic of China, the Anti-Japanese War, and now. There are not many worse than you. Tell me, are you afraid of the peace in the courtyard and deliberately causing trouble?"

Everyone in the courtyard followed the deaf old lady's words and thought, it seems like the Goose City Story was deliberately told, and it really has that flavor.

Xu Fugui was not a person who just sat there to do nothing. The more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

What the hell, two of them are singing the same tune and putting the blame on me?

Then, do you think you can easily resolve the glass-breaking incident?

Grandma, go play with your eggs!

Thinking of this, he stepped forward and said with a half-smile, "Wait a moment, you two. Good fellow, in just a few minutes, I became an asshole for no reason?"

The deaf old lady swung her cane and waved it towards Xu Fugui.

"Old lady, am I wrong? You are a bastard!"

Xu Fugui dodged backwards and did not dare to fight back. The deaf old lady was very old, and if she lay down on the ground, it would be difficult to deal with.

Yi Zhonghai curled his lips slightly, but did not stop him.

Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help but frown, and just stood up, ready to help Xu Fugui.

On the opposite side, He Daqing saw this and spoke first.

"Old lady, you are old, but you should also speak reasonably. It's not like you are being a hooligan to say that Old Xu is a bastard without any evidence."

As he spoke, his paralyzed face twitched and he raised his height.

"Besides, the organization didn't say anything, but you just labeled Lao Xu a bastard. What? Do you think you can be above the organization?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the deaf old lady turned pale, her chin trembled, and she was reluctant to respond.

Yi Zhonghai raised his eyebrows slightly and scolded.

"Old He, stop making random accusations. Besides, is this the point?"

Xu Fugui chuckled, spread his hands and cooperated.

"We are talking about the broken glass in my house. How come that is not the main point? Is it OK just based on what you two mother and son think?"

Then he sneered, "With your behavior, I think you are a spy. Can I break the glass of your house?"

Seeing that things were about to get into a dispute again, the deaf old lady's face drooped and she stomped her cane.

"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I accept any punishment or beating!"

He Daqing and Xu Fugui looked at each other and smiled.

As for Yan Bugui, he never said a word from beginning to end. What third uncle? It was obviously the front row seat.

Liu Haizhong couldn't keep up with the conversation, the thread changed too quickly. Just as he was thinking about how to interrupt, the wind direction changed. After thinking for a long time, he turned back, picked up the teacup and took a sip, not planning to get involved anymore.

After a long time, Yi Zhonghai calmed himself down, took out a new five-yuan bill from his pocket, and waved his hand.

"Well, I can't even finish my words because you interrupted me. You are all harder than stone. I can't do that. I'll pay for it. Five dollars in new bills. Is that ok?"

He Daqing sneered, "What do you mean by our hearts are harder than stone? We distinguish right from wrong before dealing with it. Is that wrong? Also, what do you mean by "that's enough"? So you did something wrong and you're still feeling wronged?"

Xu Fugui snatched the money and said something meaningful.

"I don't know whether you have a kind heart or not. Even if you are pretending, I will admire you if you can pretend for the rest of your life!"

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that his face was shaking. He snorted coldly, "You don't know what I'm talking about."

After saying this, he supported the deaf old lady and walked into the house.

Seeing this, Liu Haizhong slammed the table and said, "Everyone should take this as a warning and disperse!"

She was usually the protagonist, and it was a rare opportunity for her to be an audience member. Jia Zhang watched the excitement for a long time, staring with eyes wide open, unable to believe it.

That's it?

Is this over?

You’re not even one-third as skilled as me!

He curled his lips, stood up, picked up his stool and went back to the house.

The full-house meeting ended hastily again. It's funny to say that it has never been completed completely until now.

Qin Huairu was also not satisfied with what she saw, so she walked next to Lin Zhiyuan and asked.

"Brother Zhiyuan, after talking for so long, I still can't figure it out. How real is Goose City?"

Lin Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Why do you care about him? As long as he doesn't affect us, it's fine. Besides, just read it as a novel. It's more interesting to slowly understand the subsequent plot yourself."

Back to the small courtyard, the living room.

Lin Manyu, He Yushui, and Xu Xiaoling were playing checkers with little Shufan.

It's really funny.

It seemed that Xiao Shufan was playing the game, while Lin Manyu was beside him giving orders. He did not make any move, but he was having a lot of fun, grinning.

After dinner, Qin Huaiwu had not returned yet.

Lin Zhiyuan was worried, so he went out, came to the entrance of the alley, and waited while smoking.
