Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

"Zhu Zi is not the manager, what are you calling him for?

Since Cheng Hao is not at home, let's go talk to Director Yang."

Yi Zhonghai interrupted Xu Fugui's complaints.

It’s not that they don’t want to ask He Yuzhu to help, it’s just that they can’t ask him at all.

If a quarrel breaks out in the courtyard, the manager will lose face, which would be counterproductive.

"Director Yang probably won't be home this weekend, so why not just forget it."

After a busy week, Xu Fugui finally has a day to go back to the hospital to spend time with his wife and son. He doesn't want to waste his time on trivial matters in Liu Haizhong.

"No, we need to find someone who can speak up for Lao Liu.

Otherwise, how can I explain to the neighbors when I return home?

Stop talking nonsense and go away."

Yi Zhonghai has no children, so he feels uncomfortable staying in the yard on weekends and watching other families reunite. Once he goes out, he naturally has to put on a good show before he is willing to go back.

"The uncle is right. Since we are already here, it doesn't matter if we take a few more steps."

Yan Bugui nodded and agreed with Yi Zhonghai's statement.

The two managers agreed, and Xu Fugui had no choice but to follow.

……

Shichahai Park is located in the northwest of Xicheng District. It consists of three connected lakes: Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai. There are many temples around it. It has a profound historical and cultural heritage and is a good place for leisure and entertainment for the people of the city.

In early spring, the chill has not yet faded and the flowers in the park have not yet bloomed. Only the new buds on the branches of the trees indicate that a season full of vitality is about to come.

Cheng Hao pushed the bicycle and led his wife to walk slowly on the path along the shore of Shichahai Lake, admiring the surrounding scenery.

The vegetation on both sides of the road is lush and the morning air is particularly fresh and pleasant.

After staying at home for a long time, Xu Yun really enjoyed taking walks outdoors, and her body seemed to become lighter.

Cheng Hao walked in front, controlling the speed, looking back at his wife from time to time. After walking a certain distance, he would find a place to rest and replenish water to prevent Xu Yun from getting tired and thirsty.

Xu Yun was a little uncomfortable with the meticulous care, and she was afraid that her man was really going to become a nanny.

After walking for a while, the couple came to a stone pavilion to rest.

Cheng Hao had just put a cushion on the cold stone bench and arranged for his wife to sit down when a figure walked quickly towards the stone pavilion not far away.

Cheng Hao thought it was just a passerby who came to rest and didn't pay much attention to it. It was not until the other person came closer that he realized it was someone he knew.

"Director Yang."

Cheng Hao walked out of the stone pavilion and greeted loudly.

"Director Cheng, what a coincidence.

I didn’t expect to see you here.”

Director Yang chuckled, slowed down his pace and came closer.

As luck would have it, Director Yang came here just because he saw Cheng Hao.

"Who is this……"

Seeing that there were women in the stone pavilion, Director Yang paused.

"This is my lover, Comrade Xu Yun, who works at the East District Newspaper Office."

Cheng Hao explained calmly.

Director Yang looked at Xu Yun's bulging belly and laughed, saying, "I just realized this now. Congratulations to Director Cheng first."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries. Director Yang did not enter the stone pavilion. Instead, Cheng Hao followed him out and started talking about business after they walked a little further away.

"Director Cheng, I heard that Deputy Director Luo from your Subdistrict Office had some unpleasantness with someone and was injured.

How is he now? "

The steel mill had just dismissed Liu Fei some time ago, and not long after, Deputy Director Luo started working with Liu Haizhong, a worker at the steel mill.

Thanks to the publicity from the neighbors in the courtyard, this incident caused quite a stir in the factory.

Director Yang had to find out in order to respond.

To be honest, Director Yang disliked Liu Fei, and as a result, he also disliked Deputy Director Luo.

Although Liu Haizhong has a bad temper, he is a hardworking and diligent worker in the steel mill.

Both in public and in private, Director Yang always stands on Liu Haizhong's side.

“After lying in the hospital for a few days, he has woken up.

I am planning to go to the police station tomorrow to deal with the problem."

Cheng Hao easily guessed what Director Yang was up to.

The two of them didn't have much interaction in normal times, and only the fight between Liu Haizhong and Deputy Director Luo could link the two together.

"Alas, Deputy Director Luo is really unlucky to have encountered such an unexpected disaster."

Director Yang seemed to lament what happened to Deputy Director Luo, but in fact he was testing Cheng Hao's attitude towards the matter.

Deputy Director Luo has little prestige in the Xining Sub-district Office and can almost be said to be a gangster.

Cheng Hao is still the person in charge of the street office.

Moreover, Cheng Hao's strength and background are by no means comparable to that of Deputy Director Luo.

Not to mention his relationships in the army, Cheng Hao's father-in-law is considered a big shot in the city.

If Cheng Hao supported Deputy Director Luo, Director Yang would not be able to speak for Liu Haizhong.

“It’s not an unprovoked disaster.

Sister Luo caused trouble, and as a younger brother, it was his duty to help and bear the responsibility, and there was nothing he could do about it." Cheng Hao corrected calmly.

The blood ties in this era were much closer than in later generations.

Unless the relationship is severed, Deputy Director Luo will be implicated by any trouble caused by Sister Luo.

"Yes."

Director Yang nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Deputy Director Luo was not the victim of an unprovoked disaster but was the responsible person, it was somewhat justified for Liu Haizhong to beat him up.

At the same time, it also shows that Cheng Hao has no intention of taking sides on behalf of Deputy Director Luo.

Of course, the last sentence, "There is no way," not only points out that Deputy Director Luo is helpless, but also means that Cheng Hao is helpless.

No matter what, Deputy Director Luo is from the Street Office, and Cheng Hao cannot help Liu Haizhong to suppress him.

It means neither side helps the other.

“There is nothing we can do, but the person that Deputy Director Luo recommended to our steel mill some time ago was really too much.

It was that Liu Fei who didn’t work or study hard in the steel mill and was lazy all day long.

What’s even worse is that they even interfered with the male comrades in the workshop and hindered production work.

The production targets of our steel mill are set by our superiors and are very tight. We cannot tolerate bad apples that may disrupt production staying in the factory."

Director Yang gently nodded to Deputy Director Luo, and then turned his focus to criticizing Liu Fei.

Point out Liu Fei's various misconducts in the steel rolling mill.

In addition to explaining why Liu Fei was expelled from the steel mill, it was also a statement of attitude.

No matter what the outcome of the Liu Haizhong incident is, the steel mill will never let Liu Fei go back.

“The black sheep really can’t be left alone.

But Deputy Director Luo was just short-sighted and occasionally made mistakes. Even if he made mistakes, he is still a good comrade after correcting them. "

Cheng Hao agreed with some of Director Yang's views and reiterated his position.

Deputy Director Luo was at fault in this matter, but he is definitely not the main culprit.

"Director Cheng is right."

Director Yang was very considerate and immediately changed the subject, continuing to talk about Liu Fei.

“It is said that if a child is not well educated, it is the father’s fault. I think it is not only the father who is at fault, but the mother also has an unshirkable responsibility.

Liu Fei has become like this because of her mother's poor teaching and excessive pampering. "

The matter is already very clear. Director Yang wants to help Liu Haizhong, and Cheng Hao needs to maintain the dignity of the Street Office, so he has to pull Deputy Director Luo. So who should bear the greatest responsibility for this conflict?

Of course it’s Sister Luo, it can only be Sister Luo.
