Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

With He Yuzhu's mediation, Liu Haizhong and his son quickly reached a settlement.

Liu Haizhong promised that he would never beat Liu Guangtian and his brother again, and also promised to send them to finish high school, but on the prerequisite that they could be admitted to high school.

Liu Guangtian is already in the second year of high school, while Liu Guangfu is only in the third year of junior high school. This restriction is mainly aimed at Liu Guangfu.

Seeing that He Yuzhu had managed to bring Liu Haizhong and his son to a reconciliation so quickly, Fang Changgui once again affirmed He Yuzhu's ability and wanted him to continue serving as the hospital's liaison officer.

Fang Changgui smiled and said, "Zhu Zi, I apologize for my impulsiveness just now. You should be the liaison officer of this courtyard!"

He Yuzhu said sternly, "Director, why are you apologizing? Aren't you embarrassing me?"

"I want to resign as a liaison officer. It's not because I'm angry with you, but it's a decision I made after careful consideration."

"After all, a person's energy is limited. It is impossible to take care of two jobs at the same time. If you try to do it, you will not be able to do well in the factory work or the hospital work."

Fang Changgui continued to persuade him, "Zhu Zi, the liaison officer is just mediating small conflicts between neighbors. It won't take up much of your energy."

He Yuzhu smiled bitterly and said, "The liaison officers of other courtyards may not be able to spend much energy, but it is definitely not the case in our courtyard. All the people living in our courtyard are evil spirits. Disputes will occur every few days, and I can't mediate them at all."

"I am busy with work at the factory and I am also attending night school. I am not in the yard most of the time. How can I mediate conflicts between neighbors?"

"With a serious and responsible attitude, I ask you to find someone else. I am really not suitable to be the liaison officer anymore."

Fu Xinhan interrupted, "Director Fang, Director He's words make sense. The situation in their courtyard is indeed quite complicated. Our police station has to go there every now and then. I have never seen such a chaotic courtyard."

Fang Changgui sighed and said, "Okay then! But you still have to serve as a liaison for a while. You can only step down after I find a successor."

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "No problem, but please make it as fast as possible, Director."

"Zhu Zi, who do you think is suitable to be your successor?"

"Li Debiao in the front yard is a good person. He is upright and has a sense of justice for the public."

Fang Changgui smiled bitterly and said, "I have approached him many times, but he is not even willing to be the second uncle, let alone the first uncle."

He Yuzhu said helplessly: "Then no one will recommend me."

……

In a blink of an eye, another month has passed.

That day, He Yuzhu had just got off work when he saw Xu Huizhen holding her child in her arms, looking around at the factory gate, as if looking for someone.

He Yuzhu stepped forward and asked, "Comrade Xu Huizhen, are you looking for someone?"

Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "I'm not looking for anyone. I'll wait for you!"

He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows and said, "Wait for me?"

Xu Huizhen nodded and said, "Yes! To thank you for your help, I would like to invite you to my house for a meal."

He Yuzhu declined politely: "No, I didn't help you with anything."

Xu Huizhen invited him again, "Brother He, you are my mother and I's savior. I must treat you to a meal. Don't refuse it anymore."

He Yuzhu heard this and did not refuse. He smiled gently and said, "Huizhen, since you said so, it would be a bit inhumane for me to refuse again."

"However, I have something else tonight. How about I visit your house tomorrow?"

Xu Huizhen said happily, "Great! Tomorrow is Sunday, I will prepare a nice bed for you and look forward to your arrival."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Huizhen, don't be so polite. I feel a little embarrassed."

"Huizhen, it's cold outside. Don't let the child get cold. Can I take you home first?"

"Brother He, don't you have something else to do? Will sending me off delay your work?"

"There's no time to waste. Get in the car. It's too cold out here."

"OK then!"

As Xu Huizhen spoke, she sat on the back seat of the bicycle, holding the baby in one hand and He Yuzhu's waist with the other.

He Yuzhu looked back and then started riding his bike.

What He Yuzhu didn't know was that Qin Huairu had been watching his and Xu Huizhen's every move in the crowd.

After He Yuzhu drove Xu Huizhen away, Qin Huairu immediately showed a resentful expression on her face.

Qin Huairu caught sight of Yi Zhonghai in front of her, and hurriedly chased after him, whispering:

"Master, I just saw Sha Zhu and a woman talking and laughing, behaving very intimately. The girl was holding a child in her arms, and then she even got on Sha Zhu's bicycle."

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's face was overjoyed, and he said excitedly: "You mean Sha Zhu had sex with a man and a woman and had a child out of wedlock."

Qin Huairu shook her head and said, "I'm not sure about that, but I'm sure their relationship is definitely not normal."

Yi Zhonghai said without hesitation: "Then let's first find out the relationship between Sha Zhu and that woman. If Sha Zhu really has problems with his lifestyle, then his good days are over."

Qin Huairu frowned and said, "Master, are we going to follow Sha Zhu again?"

Yi Zhonghai said helplessly: "Besides this method, is there any other way?"

Qin Huairu said with difficulty: "But Shazhu has issued a reward to catch us for evidence of destroying his marriage."

Yi Zhonghai said indifferently: "That happened several months ago. No one cares about it now."

Qin Huairu said bitterly, "Shazhu is already on guard against us, so who should we find to follow him this time? Besides, Shazhu has a bicycle, so ordinary people really can't follow him."

Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "This is indeed a difficult problem. Let's go back and discuss it with Yan Bugui. He may have a solution."

Qin Huairu heard this and nodded without comment.

When Yi Zhonghai returned to the courtyard, he found Yan Bugui. After explaining his purpose to Yan Bugui, Yan Bugui immediately thought of Xu Damao.

Then, the two of them went to find Xu Damao together, but Xu Damao rejected them righteously.

Not only did Xu Damao reject them, he also made some sarcastic remarks about them, saying that he was unwilling to go along with them, which made them very angry.

Xu Damao was unwilling to participate, and Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui had no choice but to continue discussing countermeasures.

Yi Zhonghai grinned and said, "Old Yan, why don't you go and follow Sha Zhu? You have a bicycle anyway."

Yan Bugui blurted out, "No, that bastard Shazhu is very smart. If he finds out, he will definitely take revenge on me like crazy."

"I am the only labor force in my family now. If anything happens to me, my whole family will be left with nothing."

"Old Yan, don't be afraid. Even if he finds out you're following him, what can he do to you if you don't do anything to hurt him?"

"That's easy for you to say. Why don't you follow him?"

"I don't have a bicycle!"

"That's easy. I'll just lend you my bike!"
