Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

"Old Yan, this is a big event in the hospital. As a member of the hospital, how can you stand by and watch?"

Yi Zhonghai obviously had no intention of letting Yan Bugui go.

As the saying goes, one tree cannot support a whole, it is difficult for Yi Zhonghai to make any waves with his own strength. Only by bringing Yan Bugui with him and dragging the residents of the courtyard onto the pirate ship one by one, can he succeed.

"Old Yi, stop talking about these nonsense. I still have one thing to say, you can make as much noise as you want, but just don't drag me into this."

Yan Bugui waved his hand and refused decisively.

Just now, the two of them decisively sold out Liu Haizhong in front of He Yuzhu's house, and there was not much trust between the two sides.

Besides, Yan Bugui and Cheng Hao don't have much conflict, so why take the risk to help Yi Zhonghai get something out of trouble?

"Old Yan..."

Without waiting for Yi Zhonghai to say anything else, Yan Bugui hurriedly turned around and left.

Yan Bugui has both sons and daughters, and has great prospects for the future. He is not like Yi Zhonghai who has to worry about retirement now.

"Hi~"

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he stamped his feet and couldn't help but sigh.

Liu Haizhong lay on the bed helpless. Yan Bugui was too timid to help, but how could he alone make He Yuzhu change his mind?

……

"Brother Hao, I remember that your family originally lived in Luoguxiang, Xizhimen.

Why don't you take me back to have a look while you're free?"

Cheng Hao and his wife were riding their bicycles around the city. When they passed Xizhimen, Xu Yun suddenly had the idea of ​​returning to her old home to take a look.

“My family used to live in a compound where the houses hadn’t been renovated yet and there was nothing much to see.

It won’t be too late to go back after the renovation is completed.”

It is true that the house was not renovated yet, but the more important reason was that Cheng Hao didn't want to see those neighbors.

After he and Xu Yun had their own little nest outside, Cheng Hao’s old house in the courtyard seemed less important.

Cheng Hao has no plans to move back home. In the future, he will probably only go back to burn incense and pay homage to his parents during the Qingming and Double Ninth Festivals.

"A large compound?

How is the situation in the yard? Are the neighbors getting along well?

......"

When talking about Cheng Hao's past, Xu Yun suddenly became interested and raised many questions.

"There's nothing new here. The people in the courtyard are just ordinary people. They're neither good nor bad. It's just that it's hard to communicate with them."

As for those bastards in the courtyard, Cheng Hao had already been underestimating them.

Apart from He Yuzhu, there are really few good people in the courtyard.

What people like Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and others did can almost be described as beast-holding.

"Our newspaper is currently editing news about the lives of the citizens. How about taking me to the courtyard to have a look?"

Xu Yun's eyes suddenly gleamed with a gleam of light. She had grown up in a privileged environment and had never had a deep understanding of the lives of ordinary citizens. She was very curious about these things.

“Still thinking about work on the weekend?

Okay, if you want to go, I'll go with you.

Let's buy some food and gifts and visit Zhuzi's home."

Unable to persuade his wife, Cheng Hao had to agree.

Anyway, Xu Yun will have to go back to the old house with them to worship in the future, so it wouldn’t hurt to do it some time in advance.

"I know my husband is the best."

Having fulfilled her wish, Xu Yun smiled brightly.

The two bought some wine and food on the street, packed some snacks as gifts, and then soon arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

"Hey, Cheng Hao is back. It's Cheng Hao who is back."

"He brought a girl with him."

Cheng Hao had been away from the courtyard for some time, and the neighbors in the courtyard all knew that he had become a cadre in the Xining Street Office. Therefore, when Cheng Hao returned to the courtyard again, the neighbors were all excited.

Many people gathered around to watch, whispering to each other from time to time.

Cheng Hao greeted people along the way, occasionally saying a few perfunctory words, and quickly came to the central courtyard with his wife and entered He Yuzhu's home.

Only after he entered the house and avoided the hustle and bustle outside did Cheng Hao breathe a sigh of relief.

"Brother Hao, sister-in-law, why are you here?!"

When Cheng Hao and his wife came to visit, He Yuzhu was very happy and hurriedly brought Qin Huairu and Yu Shui over to accompany them.

"I'll come see you when I'm free.

Not welcome."

Cheng Hao put all the wine, food and gifts on the table, then found a stool and sat down with Xu Yun.

“How can that be possible?

I wish you could come every day."

He Yuzhu waved his hand to signal Qin Huairu to put away the wine, food and gifts, and he sat on the stool to chat with Cheng Hao.

"Brother Hao, there hasn't been a single day of peace in the courtyard since you left.

Liu Haizhong was not satisfied with the compensation and cemetery, and kept reporting it to the higher authorities. Until now, Liu Guangqi's ashes are still placed on top of his cabinet at home. "

As the two talked about the glorious past, they inevitably talked about the current situation in the courtyard.

"Hasn't it stopped yet?"

Cheng Hao was slightly stunned. After warning Liu Haizhong last time, he thought he would learn his lesson, but he didn't expect that he would have such a hard temper.

“Not only did it not stop, it became even more intense.

You don't know, he beats his children and wife in the backyard every day.

The screams of Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu could be heard even from my side.

I really don’t know how a father like him can be so cruel. Is he really going to beat his two sons to death? "

He Yuzhu shook his head and smiled bitterly, then continued, "This morning, Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai came to my house to inquire about you and said a lot of nasty things. I beat him up. After a few slaps, he finally behaved himself."

“Hiss, it’s illegal to abuse children and women.

This Liu Haizhong beats the children in the yard every day, is there no one to supervise him?"

Xu Yun had been listening quietly by the side until this moment when she raised the question.

"Yun'er, some things are difficult to define by law.

Beating children is a common thing in ordinary families. As long as the children don't get hurt, the police won't interfere.

Even if they are taken back to the police station, at most they will just be criticized and educated.

After releasing the child, you should continue to beat him.

There is no way around this.”

Cheng Hao explained helplessly.

Not only now, even in a few decades, beating children will still not be banned.

"If a child is disobedient, it's barely justifiable to educate him, but what about him beating his wife?"

Xu Yun stared at Cheng Hao and asked.

“Beating your wife is actually a common thing.

As long as it’s not too much…”

Feeling Xu Yun's serious gaze, Cheng Hao didn't say anything else.

"Hubby, you won't treat me like them one day, will you?"

Cheng Hao quickly waved his hands and explained, "How is that possible? Don't you know what kind of person I am? I won't do anything to my wife."

Not only was Cheng Hao influenced by the ideas of later generations, but having experienced war, he also had a deeper understanding of violence.

Witnessing the various tragedies caused by the abuse of violence has made Cheng Hao more cautious and restrained when using force.

For example, although Cheng Hao hit Liu Haizhong more than once, he was very restrained each time and only caused superficial injuries without really causing any harm.

If he really wanted to take Liu Haizhong's life, he would have been killed long ago.
