Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Liu Fangchun sighed, "Xu Damao, your steel mill is really full of talented people. You, a projectionist, are very eloquent, and the cook in the kitchen is always reading."

"Chef, you are not talking about He Yuzhu, are you?"

"Auntie, please don't be fooled by He Yuzhu. He looks simple and honest, but he is full of evil thoughts. He fights, cheats, and does all kinds of evil things."

"In addition, his private life is extremely chaotic. He has had affairs with many widows. He is also cold-hearted and doesn't care about his younger sister. He is hated by everyone in our steel mill..."

Xu Damao was very good at observing people's expressions and he quickly determined that the middle-aged woman in front of him was not a simple person. So he tried his best to say bad things about He Yuzhu, hoping to use her to remove He Yuzhu's position as deputy director of the canteen.

Liu Fangchun said that she was also the daughter-in-law of a senior leader. She had seen all kinds of monsters and demons. How could she believe Xu Damao's one-sided words? She said in a deep voice:

"Xu Damao, do you have a grudge against He Yuzhu, and that's why you are slandering him so hard?"

Xu Damao panicked and immediately cursed and swore: "Auntie, if I tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"

Seeing Xu Damao swearing a poisonous oath, Liu Fangchun hesitated and said, "The young man in the kitchen doesn't look like the kind of person you said, does he?"

Xu Damao said anxiously, "Auntie, it's hard to paint the bones of a tiger even if you can only paint its skin. You can't know a person's heart by looking at his face. You have been deceived by He Yuzhu's honest appearance. He and I have lived in the same compound since we were young. No one knows him better than me."

"He Yuzhu has been a bad guy since he was young. He peeped at girls bathing when he was five years old, and forced girls to watch him bathe when he was six years old. Now he beats the elderly and kicks children. He has no conscience and is full of evil..."

Liu Fangchun half-believed and half-doubted: "He Yuzhu, is he really as bad as you say?"

Xu Damao said firmly: "It is absolutely true. The mistakes you have made are simply too numerous to list. I have never seen anyone worse than him."

Liu Fangchun frowned, "So how is his cooking?"

He Yuzhu said in horror: "Cooking skills? What cooking skills does he have? With his mediocre skills, anyone on the street can cook better than him."

"Auntie, asking He Yuzhu to cook is definitely the most wrong decision you have ever made in your life!"

"Humph!"

A cold snort made Xu Damao tremble all over.

When Xu Damao looked back, he saw the leader who looked intimidating without even getting angry, and Yang Xinmin and others with grim faces.

Yang Xinmin now wished he could kill Xu Damao, he knew his old leader too well.

He is upright, hates evil, and cannot tolerate any sand in his eyes. He hates people talking bad about others behind their back the most.

He asked Xu Damao to show the movie in order to please his old leader, but he didn't expect Xu Damao to start speaking ill of the old leader's wife and was caught by the old leader.

Yang Xinmin looked at the old leader's gloomy face and instantly knew that the old leader was really angry.

Yang Xinmin is regretting his decision to flatter the wrong person.

Xu Damao was unaware of the disaster he had caused, and said with a smile: "Hello, leaders. I am Xu Damao..."

The big boss didn't even give Xu Damao a glance and just turned and left.

Yang Xinmin, Liu Fangchun and others hurried to follow.

Xu Damao was confused and subconsciously wanted to follow, but was stopped by Bai Feng.

The big boss walked into the inner room and asked angrily, "Yang Xinmin, what's wrong with you? Why are you bringing people to my house?"

"I won't watch this movie. Please get that projectionist out of my house."

Yang Xinmin said tremblingly: "Old leader, don't be angry, it's all my fault for not knowing how to judge people. I will drive him away immediately."

Yang Xinmin angrily found Xu Damao and said sternly: "Xu Damao, pack up and leave quickly. We don't need you to show movies here anymore."

Xu Damao was confused again, and asked with a bewildered look on his face: "Director, why don't you play the movie?"

Yang Xinmin shouted angrily, "How dare you ask why? Who told you to speak ill of others behind their backs? You idiot almost killed me, get out of here now!"

Xu Damao explained anxiously: "Director, I didn't say anything bad about anyone!"

Yang Xinmin said angrily, "It's already this time, and you are still quibbling. We heard everything you said just now clearly behind the door. You are making up stories out of nothing and stirring up trouble. I am so disappointed in you."

"Get out of here right now. I don't want to say it again."

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao was panicked. He had been waiting for a long time for this opportunity to get close to Yang Xinmin, but he did not expect to make the other party dislike him. Doesn't that mean his promotion is hopeless for the rest of his life?

Xu Damao wanted to explain, but Yang Xinmin turned and left.

Xu Damao wanted to catch up, but Bai Feng stopped him and said indifferently: "Xu Damao, pack up and leave quickly. The leader is angry now. Don't make him angry again."

Seeing this, Xu Damao had no choice but to leave with the projector in shame.

Back room.

Liu Fangchun consoled him, "Old Li, didn't others just say a few gossips? Why are you so angry?"

The leader was still angry and said in a deep voice:

"You know that I hate people who gossip behind people's backs the most. They are narrow-minded, jealous of others' talents, and have a strong desire for revenge. Many big things are ruined by such people."

Liu Fangchun frowned and said, "Old Li, are you making a big deal out of nothing?"

"As the saying goes, there's no smoke without fire. How can you be sure that someone is lying? What if he's telling the truth?"

The big boss looked at her coldly and said, "Why don't you use your brain to think about it? He said that a chef can't cook. Is that possible?"

"No matter how stupid Yang Xinmin is, he wouldn't lie to me about something like this, right?"

At this time, Yang Xinmin came in and said respectfully:

"Sister-in-law, you have indeed been deceived by Xu Damao. The chef I brought with me is called He Yuzhu. He is the deputy director of our factory canteen and also a third-level cook. He comes from a family of chefs and is good at Sichuan cuisine and Tan family cuisine."

“I have personally tasted his dishes and they are really delicious.”

At this time, a bald man in his fifties spoke up, "He Yuzhu? I think I heard Lao Zhao from the meat processing factory mention him. He said he was a good cook. He wanted to poach him, but you, Lao Yang, refused."

Yang Xinmin chuckled and said, "That's true. When Lao Zhao came to my factory to have a meal, it was like poaching the best cook in our factory. How could I do that?"

The big boss smiled and said, "Hearing what you said, I am looking forward to today's meal even more."

"Since we're not going to watch a movie, let's ask Chef He to cook right away so we can have dinner early."

The big boss's secretary responded hastily: "I'll go and ask Deputy Director He to start cooking now."

The big boss nodded slightly, and the secretary turned and walked towards the kitchen.
