Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

"Director Cheng, I'm so grateful to you this time, otherwise I don't know what to do."

In the office on the third floor of Xining Subdistrict Office, Deputy Director Luo pushed two tubes of tea leaves in front of Cheng Hao and said with a smile: "This is the new green tea produced in your province this year. It was sent by a friend in the south. You can take it back and try it."

The tea leaves in the measuring cylinder are not rare varieties and are not worth much money. They are just right to express gratitude.

"Okay, I'll take it back and try it."

Cheng Hao did not refuse and put the tea leaves into the drawer. He then reminded him faintly, "The residents of No. 95 Luoguxiang are not easy to deal with. And Liu Haizhong lives there. I'm afraid they won't have a peaceful life in the future."

It's okay to help once within your ability, but it's impossible to help all the time.

Cheng Hao doesn't have time to help Sister Luo clean up the mess.

"I have fulfilled my responsibility as a younger brother by helping you this time. No matter what happens in the future, I will not be in charge.

Everyone has their own life and must learn to be self-reliant."

Deputy Director Luo was determined to completely get rid of the influence of his elder sister.

No matter how Sister Luo lives her life, it has nothing to do with him.

"Well, well said, that's it."

Cheng Hao was very satisfied with Deputy Director Luo's answer.

When facing a bad relative like Sister Luo, you should cut the Gordian knot quickly and not hesitate to make a decision and suffer the consequences.

After settling Sister Luo's issue, the Street Office returned to normal. However, the wind does not stop even though the tree wants to be quiet, and the courtyard is in turmoil.

……

On the second night after Sister Luo and her daughter entertained the two stewards, Liu Haizhong convened a meeting of the entire courtyard on the pretext of welcoming new neighbors.

The residents in the courtyard were all curious about their new neighbors, and with Liu Haizhong's encouragement, the meeting resolution was quickly passed.

That night, neighbors brought their elderly and children to the central courtyard to celebrate the event.

As usual, an octagonal table was placed in the middle of the yard, with three stewards holding enamel teacups and sitting on either side, facing the crowd.

The eldest and third uncles looked calm and took a sip of tea from time to time to moisten their throats.

The second uncle had a gloomy face and there was no joy on his face. He did not look like he was ready to welcome his neighbors, but rather as if he was ready to call them to task.

All the members were present. Before the first uncle could speak, the second uncle stood up first and said in a loud voice: "We are all gathered here today for the new neighbors in the courtyard. Our courtyard has always been a harmonious courtyard where we respect the old and love the young and help each other.

We welcome like-minded comrades to join our loving family.

Of course, we will never tolerate those black sheep who disrespect their elders, violate laws and regulations, and disrupt order.”

After saying the last sentence, Liu Haizhong glared fiercely at Sister Luo and her daughter who were sitting in the corner.

It is very clear who the black sheep Liu Haizhong is referring to.

Facing the show of power from Liu Haizhong, Sister Luo was not afraid at all. She stood up slowly and said with a smile, "Second Uncle is right. Black sheep who violate the law and discipline must not be tolerated.

I just have a question for Uncle Er.

Did you feel comfortable in the police station these days? "

Sister Luo is not a good person. If Liu Haizhong dares to provoke her, she will fight back with double the effort.

When Liu Haizhong heard the word "police station", his face turned pale and his eyes seemed to be spitting fire. Just as he was about to lose his temper, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly coughed a few times and came out to smooth things over.

"OK OK.

Today we are gathered together to welcome new neighbors, so don't say anything unhappy. "

Yan Bugui also echoed, "Yes, what the uncle said is right. Sister Luo, you just came to our yard, and the neighbors don't know you yet. Say hello to everyone first."

One should be grateful for the food one has eaten. After having a meal with Sister Luo last night, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui had to come out and say a few words to help.

Moreover, the bangs are indeed a bit excessive.

No matter what grudges there were in the past, we are now neighbors living in the same yard. How can you target us like this?

Sister Luo nodded slightly at the two uncles in charge, without looking at Liu Haizhong who was gritting his teeth, and introduced herself to everyone.

After finishing his speech, Yi Zhonghai led the applause and said enthusiastically: "Sister Luo, from now on, you are part of the big family of Siheyuan. If you have any questions or encounter any difficulties, you can come to the manager."

Yi Zhonghai only found out that Sister Luo was divorced from her husband, and he was not aware that Deputy Director Luo had requested to resign.

Therefore, he had some intention of currying favor with Sister Luo and kept showing her goodwill.

"They say that uncles are kind-hearted people. Thank you in advance."

Sister Luo got along well with the two managers, and Liu Haizhong couldn't stand it anymore.

Liu Haizhong really couldn't understand what kind of magic potion Sister Luo had given to Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui.

How could those two old bastards be so ungrateful and not help their old neighbor but instead hang out with Sister Luo?

"Sister Luo, I have something to ask you.

You invited the first and third uncles to a banquet last night, why didn’t you invite me?

We are all in charge, but I treat us differently. Do you have a problem with me?!"

Liu Haizhong started to forcefully attack regardless of the situation.

No matter what, he was not going to let Sister Luo have an easy time today.

"Look at what Uncle Two said.

I don't have any problem with the second uncle, but I'm afraid that you have a problem with me.

Everyone knows about the conflict we had before.

Since we don't get along, there's no need to force ourselves to sit at the same table.

It's to avoid making you angry, right? "

Sister Luo kicked the ball back with just a few words.

Liu Haizhong was still furious and was about to yell at Sister Luo, but was interrupted by Yi Zhonghai.

"Okay, stop talking.

Our hospital is a place of unity and friendship. Sister Luo, you shouldn't judge others by your own standards.

Although the second uncle has an impatient temper, he is not a stingy person.

He had long forgotten what happened before.

I won’t make things difficult for you just because of a little conflict in the past.”

Yi Zhonghai seemed to be criticizing Sister Luo, but in fact he was helping her out.

"Master, this..."

Liu Haizhong wanted to argue, but Yan Bugui quickly interrupted him.

"Second uncle, stop talking, we all understand what you mean.

As a grown man, you wouldn't dwell on the past and make things difficult for a woman all day long.

That would be a big loss of points.”

Seeing this, Sister Luo quickly bowed and apologized to Liu Haizhong, "Second Uncle, I was wrong. You are a magnanimous person, so you will definitely not hold it against me, right?"

Liu Hai, who was held by three people, was full of anger, but he couldn't show it in front of his neighbors.

It was so overwhelming that I almost got internal injuries.

It was the considerate Yi Zhonghai who stepped out to help, saying to everyone: "Everyone has already met the new neighbor. It's getting late, and we have to go to work tomorrow, so let's all go."

Seeing that Liu Haizhong and Sister Luo didn't fight, the neighbors, who had nothing to watch, dispersed one after another.

Sister Luo and her daughter also followed the main group and soon disappeared from Liu Hai's sight.

The neighbors dispersed. Liu Haizhong picked up the enamel pot and slammed it on the table. He looked at Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui with red eyes and said with a heavy breath: "What are you doing!"
