Siheyuan: Starting from Building a Village

"Boom boom boom.."

The three members of the Xu family who were enjoying their meal in the house quickly finished the pig head on the plate, then wiped their lips at the same time, looked at each other and nodded.

Xu Damao got up and opened the door.

"Hey, old lady, why are you knocking on the door so urgently? Is there something wrong?"

Xu Damao naturally had no good feelings towards the old lady in front of him. Every time he had a conflict with Sha Zhu, he would be beaten with a stick by this old woman. It was she who first called him a bad seed.

"Humph, I've been knocking on doors like this for decades, and you, a bad guy, have an objection?"

The old lady pushed Xu Damao aside and was about to rush in.

"I say, old lady, are you a bandit?"

Xu Damao stood directly in front of the door.

"What? Bad seed, can you please say that again?"

The deaf old lady's voice became shrill. She held the door frame with one hand, raised her cane with the other, and hit Xu Damao on the head.

"Old lady, I want to see today how you bully my son at my doorstep."

Xu Fugui walked out slowly.

After hearing what Xu Fugui said, the deaf old lady was stunned for a moment, and slowly put down the walking stick in her hand.

The deaf old lady has lived to such an old age and experienced so many things, so she naturally knows who to offend and who not to offend. There are two people in this courtyard who cannot be offended, one is He Daqing in the middle courtyard, and the other is Xu Fugui in the backyard.

He Daqing is a gangster. When he gets angry, he dares to beat anyone. He doesn't care about your age. He will beat you first and then talk about it. Sha Zhu has the same temper as his father.

Xu Fugui is a shady person. He doesn't say anything on the surface, but he does the work for you behind your back. He knows a lot of people from all walks of life. He can get you out of trouble by just inviting them to dinner.

But she had found a way to get rid of He Daqing.

The only thing left is Xu Fugui. I can only work on my reputation. Isn't Xu Fugui impeccable? Then I'll start with your son. So the rumor that Xu Damao is a bad seed came from her mouth.

"Xiao Xu, the old lady is disciplining your son for you, teaching him what he can and cannot say."

Although she was a little afraid of Xu Fugui, the deaf old lady refused to admit defeat.

"Old lady, I teach my own son myself, and it is not someone else's turn to interfere."

Xu Fugui glanced at the deaf old lady, and Xu's mother snorted coldly from behind.

"Okay, okay, okay, it's my old lady who's too nosy."

"But, Xiao Xu, what you did today was wrong."

The deaf old lady changed the subject immediately.

"Old lady, please tell me, what is wrong with me today?"

After hearing what the deaf old lady said, Xu Fugui smiled.

"I am the ancestor of this courtyard. If anyone in the courtyard cooks something delicious, they must serve a bowl to my old lady. Don't say that you, Xu Fugui, don't know this rule."

The deaf old lady stared at Xu Fugui with her sharp eyes, wanting to see what he would say.

"Old lady, you are wronging me. I didn't prepare any delicious food at home today. I just dripped two drops of sesame oil on the pickles."

"Besides, you also said that you don't like pickles, so I didn't bring them to you."

"If you still think that pickles are good, I'll ask my family to serve you a big bowl of them."

"As long as you say you like pickles, I will take care of your pickles for the rest of your life."

Are you kidding? It has always been Xu Fugui who takes advantage of others, never anyone else takes advantage of him.

"you..."

This almost broke the deaf old lady's defense, but now she had nothing to say. If she really said that she liked to eat pickles, Xu Fugui could move the pickle jar to her house.

"Old Xu, this is your fault."

The gate of Xu's house was already crowded with people. Liu Haizhong was proud of his status and hid behind the crowd, wanting to see if there was any room for him to show his abilities. He was hoping that more things would happen in the backyard so that he could solve them and show off his status as the second uncle and satisfy his desire to be an official.

"Who did I think it was? Old Liu, which eye of yours is looking at me wrongly?"

The man walking out of the crowd is Liu Haizhong, a famous father and son in the courtyard. His biggest wish in life is to be an official, but due to his limited education and low emotional intelligence, he has never been able to achieve his wish. He has become a voluntary mediator in the courtyard. Each courtyard has one mediator, and one to three mediators are selected according to the size of the courtyard. I don’t know when it started, but the three mediators in the courtyard No. 95 actually arranged their seats like the heroes of Liangshan, and divided them into one, two, and three. Liu Haizhong is the manager of the backyard.

"I saw it with both eyes."

"I've been watching for a long time. It's all your fault, Old Xu."

As the second uncle of the courtyard house, what Liu Hai can't tolerate the most is someone questioning him.

"Hey, since you've always been here, why did you let the deaf old lady bully my child?"

Xu Fugui looked at Liu Haizhong with disdain and said, "If you want to watch the fun, then just watch it honestly. If you don't have the ability, then don't come out to join in the fun."

"The old lady is the ancestor of our courtyard. She is kind enough to discipline your children for you. You should appreciate this."

Living in this courtyard for a long time, and being influenced by what he sees and hears, Liu Haizhong can naturally remember what others say, and he put it to use today.

Xu Fugui looked at Liu Haizhong with disdain: "Old Liu, since you are willing to let others discipline your children, why not let the old lady discipline your Guangtian and Guangfu instead."

"Uncle Xu, please don't harm us."

Liu Guangtian, who was watching the fun outside, was not happy about it. He had been hit by the deaf old lady's cane before. He didn't know what material the deaf old lady's cane was made of. It really hurt when it hit his body.

"Go back, you disgrace."

After hearing what Liu Guangtian said, Liu Haizhong glared and subconsciously raised his hand to slap someone. Finally, when he saw that Liu Guangtian was not around, he turned around and slapped Liu Guangfu in the face.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Liu Guangfu was confused. He didn't say a word, but just stood closer. Was this an unprovoked disaster?

"Hold it, if you dare to make a sound, I will beat you to death."

Liu Guangfu was so scared that he quickly covered his mouth tightly, fearing that making the slightest sound would bring him a scolding from his old father.

"Lao Xu, he's my own son. Why should I let others discipline him? If anyone wants to discipline him, they can discipline their own children. Why worry about other people's children all day long?"

My goodness, just with this sentence, the deaf old lady lost her balance and almost fell to the ground.

Behind the crowd, an old man with a flat head and a righteous face listened to the laughter around him and his face became equally gloomy and terrifying.

“This is my own child.”

Xu Fugui naturally noticed the old man with a bad face in the crowd and looked over there intentionally.

Everyone followed Xu Fugui's gaze and saw the person behind the crowd, then they hurriedly made way for him, saying: Make way, let this old man come over.

I don't know who in the crowd couldn't help but laugh out loud.
