Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

"Director Yang came here tonight. Is it about Yi Zhonghai and the others?"

Cheng Hao guessed Director Yang's intention without much thought.

Apart from Yi Zhonghai and his people, the two of them really had little in common.

"Yes, I came here for them."

Director Yang nodded and said frankly, "They are the technical backbone of the steel rolling mill and important technical talents. If they have not made mistakes of principle, they should be treated leniently.

Director Cheng, you and Yi Zhonghai and others are old acquaintances.

For the sake of our past friendship, can you tell me the truth about what is going on at the police station?"

The offender was affiliated with a steel rolling mill. In order to avoid suspicion, Director Yang could not go directly to the police station to plead for mercy, so he came to Cheng Hao to gather information.

“I don’t work in the public security system, so I don’t know the specifics.

However, it was just the death of a human trafficker, which is not a big deal.

If no one files a criminal complaint in court, the impact will not continue to expand.”

After a trip to the police station, Cheng Hao gained some understanding of the incident.

Although it is not clear whether Yi Zhonghai and his men were the main culprits in killing Chen Fugui, one can still sense the attitude of the police station.

When handling major cases, look at politics; for medium cases, look at influence; for minor cases, look at relationships.

Chen Fugui’s death was not a big deal, but dying in the street in broad daylight had a bad impact, so the police station had to spend a little more effort.

As long as the impact disappears, Yi Zhonghai and others will be safe with the relationship with the steel mill.

"I see. Thank you Director Cheng for your guidance."

Director Yang breathed a sigh of relief knowing that the matter could be properly resolved.

Now that I have a clear idea in my mind, I will be able to deal with it better when I attend the meeting at the factory tomorrow.

"You're welcome, Director Yang, you're just too concerned.

It is their blessing to have a superior like you who cares about his subordinates."

The sedan chair is carried by many people, and Cheng Hao has always been friendly to those who do not hinder him.

Save up a little more money today, you never know when you may need it in the future.

After getting the answer he wanted, Director Yang did not stay and left directly.

Cheng Hao also returned to the room, closed the door, took a shower and went to bed.

……

Yi Zhonghai and the other two were detained in the police station for three days, but still no accurate news came out.

The neighbors in the yard went to see Director Yang, but they only got the response of "stay calm".

Neighbors who were unaware of the situation became even more agitated, and a sense of frustration spread throughout the courtyard, with many unreliable rumors circulating privately.

Most of them are the black materials of the three managers in the past.

They said they had done too many evil things and today was their retribution, and they deserved to be thrown into prison.

There were even rumors that the three managers would be dragged out and shot in a few days, so the children of the Liu and Yan families had to prepare for their funerals as soon as possible to avoid panic.

For a time, everyone in the courtyard was in a panic, and the children of the Liu and Yan families lost their backbone. They wandered around the courtyard all day and even stopped going to school.

He Yuzhu could not stand the chaos in the courtyard and had to step out again to take charge of the situation. He personally took care of Yi Cunxiao and told the children of the Liu and Yan families to stay in the house and not to wander outside. At the same time, he ordered the neighbors not to spread rumors and cause trouble for the children of the two families.

In fact, things were not so bad that they could not be reversed. Not to mention that Yi Zhonghai and the others had not been dealt with yet, even if the three were really dragged out and shot, what would that matter?

The three managers have been doing business in the city for many years and have no shortage of savings at home.

After a few more months, the three aunts in charge were released from prison, and the three families had someone who could make the decisions.

Life will definitely go on.

When the three managers were not around, He Yuzhu was the most prestigious person in the courtyard. When he spoke, the neighbors did not dare to object and all followed his orders.

It didn't take long before the messages about the three managers gradually faded away.

Seeing that the courtyard had become quiet, Xu Damao, who had been observing secretly, became unhappy.

That’s right, he was the one who spread those rumors about the three managers.

After losing his job as a projectionist at the steel mill, Xu Damao wasted more than half a year in the courtyard. During this period, he did look for a job, but he kept running into obstacles and ultimately returned empty-handed.

The idle Xu Damao soon became the object of ridicule among the neighbors in the courtyard, especially the three uncles in charge who already disliked him and often made things difficult for him.

Now that the three managers are in trouble, Xu Damao has finally found an opportunity for revenge and naturally will not let it go easily.

The three uncles in charge were at the police station and Xu Damao couldn't reach them, so he set his sights on the two children.

That night, after the neighbors in the backyard had gone to bed, Xu Damao quietly came to the door of Liu's house.

"Boom, boom~"

There was a slight knock on the door. The neighbors sleeping in the yard did not notice it, but the two sleepless children in the house heard it clearly.

"Who?"

Liu Guangtian, the older of the two children in the Liu family, got out of bed, walked to the door, did not open it, but asked a question through the door.

There was no adult at home, so he didn't have to worry during the day, but it was dark at night and Liu Guangtian didn't dare to be careless.

If a bad guy really comes to the house, the two children of the Liu family will not be able to stop him.

"It's me, Xu Damao."

Xu Damao leaned against the crack in the door and whispered softly inside.

"Brother Damao, what's up so late at night?"

Hearing Xu Damao's familiar voice, Liu Guangtian relaxed a little, but then quickly became alert.

Xu Damao is an acquaintance, but he doesn’t have a good reputation in the hospital.

Moreover, Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong don't get along well.

Coming here so late at night, I’m afraid he has no good intentions.

“Your parents are in jail, why are you still locking yourself in your room?

If we don’t act quickly, they won’t be able to get out.”

Xu Damao did not explain why he was there, but started threatening people as soon as he opened his mouth.

Liu Guangtian was a child who had never experienced the dangers of society. He was a little flustered when he heard this. He said anxiously, "Brother Damao, there is nothing I can do. Brother Zhuzi told us to stay in the house these days and not to go out."

"What is Zhuzi brother? Isn't he just a stupid Zhuzi?"

Xu Damao curled his lips and sneered disdainfully: "Don't you know what kind of person Shazhu is? He is just a fool. If you do whatever a fool says, you are also a fool."

"This...this..."

Liu Guangtian was speechless for a moment.

The name "Shazhu" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the courtyard. Even though He Yuzhu has been on the battlefield and made great contributions, the neighbors still have not completely eliminated the stereotype.

Besides, Liu Haizhong usually doesn't say good things about He Yuzhu in front of the children.

"Since Shazhu returned to the hospital, he has had conflicts with the three managers more than once or twice.

He even beat your dad several times.

Let me tell you, he has been holding a grudge against your father for a long time.

I asked you to stay at home because I don't want you to go out and rescue your dad.

He wants your dad to stay in jail so he can show off his power in the yard."

Xu Damao continued to slander.

"real?!

Does he really want to keep my dad in jail forever?"
