Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Similar conversations were taking place in many households in the Siheyuan. In the homes of several people who had jumped out to help Auntie and Qin Huairu talk last night, the women were sulking and the men had gloomy faces. They were all regretting why they had jumped out to help Auntie and Qin Huairu talk in a fit of anger last night.

Now, when Lin Geng distributed the fish, he only gave their family one small fish. They were a little worried that Lin Geng would bear a grudge against them for this incident, and that they would not be able to get any benefits in the future.

And looking at Lin Geng now, if you offend him, you can't be sure how he will deal with you in the future. The Yi family, the Liu family, the Jia family, and the deaf old lady in the backyard are all examples of past mistakes. Now a group of people are still being held in the police station! So it seems that there is absolutely no benefit in going against Lin Geng. If you are not careful, you may even be destroyed by him.

So that night many residents in the yard secretly made up their minds to have a good relationship with Lin Geng in the future.

Of course, not everyone is so rational. Today, Lin Geng distributed the fish unfairly, giving a few small fish to several families. He also offended two or three people with poor brains. They all liked to lick Yi Zhonghai's stinky feet in the past.

There were two or three people who felt that although it was true that Yi Zhonghai was wrong this time, he was the eldest uncle in this courtyard after all, and was usually considered a warm-hearted person in the courtyard. It was true that sometimes he was too partial to the Jia family and Sha Zhu, but if the Jia family and Sha Zhu were not involved, he would still handle things fairly.

Matters within the yard should be resolved within the yard. This is the unwritten rule formed in their courtyard over the years. Now, Lin Geng immediately sent the two managers, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, to the police station and even extorted several thousand yuan from them. This is too much. Can't matters within the yard be resolved within the yard?

Now, the honorary title of the advanced courtyard in the courtyard has been cancelled by the street office, and the rewards that the street office gives to the advanced courtyard residents every year can no longer be expected this year.

That was their vested interest, but now it was destroyed by Lin Geng, so a few stupid guys blamed Lin Geng for this incident.

But they forgot that it was not Lin Geng who wanted to report to the police that day, but Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai saw that Lin Geng not only knocked down the Jia mother and son, but also kicked Sha Zhu away, and dared to beat him, and even beat the deaf old lady, the ancestor of the courtyard house whom he had worked so hard to support. He was so angry that he had no choice but to call the police.

Who would have thought that after reporting the case to the police, it was these people who ended up getting in trouble, and Liu Haizhong's family was also implicated.

Yi Zhonghai has now paid compensation and obtained Lin Geng's letter of forgiveness, but Liu Haizhong's two sons have not been able to obtain Lin Geng's letter of forgiveness. After the Jia family paid compensation, they only gave Jia Dongxu a letter of forgiveness. Jia Zhangshi will probably go to jail next.

Human beings are very complex creatures with different thoughts. There are always some people who have very unique thinking patterns and do not follow the ordinary path. So although most people in the yard have begun to make up their minds to make friends with Lin Geng, there are still a few people who bear a grudge against Lin Geng.

Master Li was indeed very punctual. He brought a few colleagues with him early in the morning. He prepared the materials yesterday afternoon and arrived outside the gate of the courtyard with a cart pulling the materials.

Yan Bugui knew that they were here to clean up Lin Geng's house, so he enthusiastically removed the threshold of the gate and asked them to start carrying materials into the yard.

The gate of the courtyard had steps, so carts could not enter, and the materials had to be transported into the courtyard by manpower. These craftsmen were all odd jobs, and they knew that their boss was very generous this time. Not only did he pay them more, he also provided them with lunch, promising them a 20-gram steamed bun to fill them up, and he guaranteed them at least fish to eat every day.

It is difficult for them to come across such good conditions and such a generous boss, so after listening to Master Li's words, these craftsmen worked very hard and prepared good materials.

But they didn't have any cement on hand, so they needed to apply for it from the street office. When they came, Lin Geng had already put all the important things in the house into his own little world. He planned to throw away the rest of the broken furniture, so he asked Master Li and others to clean out everything.

Lin Geng knew that Yan Bugui liked to take advantage, but he did not give all the old furniture to Yan Bugui. Instead, he also asked Old Wang and Aunt Liu in the front and back yards if they needed anything that they could use as they pleased. He let the three families divide the old furniture. Anyway, even if he sold it to a junk collector, it would not be worth a penny. Lin Geng could be considered a wealthy man now and did not take these things seriously at all.

After instructing Master Li and the others to clean the house, Lin Geng went out to the street office and found Director Wang. As soon as he opened his mouth, he called Director Wang "Auntie Wang". He raised his hand and took out a net bag of tomatoes and cucumbers from his bosom. There were not many, but they were very rare.

Director Wang was also very happy when he saw Lin Geng. Yesterday, Lin Geng brought several big fish to their street office and gave them to the chef of the street office to stew them all at noon. The comrades in the street office had a really good meal. For people who had just survived three difficult years, such a sumptuous fish dinner was something they could only dream of under normal circumstances.

However, Lin Geng let them enjoy such a sumptuous fish dinner. Each person got a big bowl of fish pieces, which were eaten with steamed buns made of two-grain flour. Everyone was so happy that they kept smiling and praising Lin Geng as a good young man.

Director Wang had always felt a little guilty towards Lin Geng. Now Lin Geng didn't bother with her and was so enthusiastic in sending them fish. Although the fish was sent by Lin Geng, as the director, Director Wang still felt proud. After all, Lin Geng sent them the fish mainly for her face, so it was also good for her reputation.

Therefore, when Director Wang saw Lin Geng again, she liked him more and more. Then she saw that Lin Geng had put a small net bag of red tomatoes and green cucumbers on her table, and she was immediately surprised.

This thing is very rare, especially when the weather is about to get cold. The season for this thing has long passed. Even if it is the right season, there is no place to buy it even if you have the money. However, Lin Geng gave her such a small net bag, which looks very fresh.

Director Wang looked at these tomatoes and two cucumbers and was so surprised that he almost cried out. He quickly asked Lin where he got these rare things.

Lin Geng then smiled and said, "This was given to me by an old comrade of my father's. He has many connections and was able to get some. So I sent you a few to try!"

After hearing what Lin Geng said, Director Wang felt relieved. After all, Lin Geng's father was a soldier and died on the battlefield on the peninsula. He should have many comrades-in-arms who may have held high positions now. Therefore, it is not surprising that they occasionally get some rare items like this. There is nothing strange about taking care of Lin Geng, a junior.

But Director Wang refused to accept them, thinking that these things were too valuable. They were given to Lin Geng's father by his comrades-in-arms to replenish his body, and she could not accept them. In this regard, Director Wang was still a very upright and honest cadre. Even though she liked these things very much, she insisted on not accepting them.

Lin Geng smiled and whispered, "Auntie Wang, just keep them. I really have a way to get these things. If you want to eat them in the future, tell me and I will get them for you even if I have to run all over the city! These are for you to try. If you refuse, you will be looking down on me!"

Director Wang hesitated for a long time before he sighed, pointed at Lin and said with a wry smile: "Xiao Lin! How can I say hello to you? Forget it, I'll accept it. I owe you another favor! Tell me, what do you need Auntie's help with today?"
