Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

As for Xu Damao, although he knew very well that this guy was a real villain, even if he was said to be bad, the other person had never bullied him like the other beasts in the yard over the years.

As long as Xu Damao had never bullied him, he didn't care whether Xu Damao was a villain or not. Moreover, Xu Damao, the real villain, was not necessarily worse than Yi Zhonghai, the hypocrite, or Liu Haizhong, the bad guy.

Don't hit a smiling person, he naturally won't reject Xu Damao's kindness, and he will have to live in this courtyard for a long time in the future, he can't live like a dictator, right? Qin Hui still has a few friends! So as long as Xu Damao doesn't plot against him, then he doesn't mind making friends with Xu Damao.

So he smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Damao! Thank you for testifying for me today! I will remember this favor! I don't need your help with these things, Brother Damao. I can sort them out slowly by myself!"

After hearing this, Xu Damao was very happy, so he looked at the situation of the Lin family and said to Lin Geng: "Okay, brother! This is what a brother should do! If you don't need my help, then I will go buy some vegetables first. Your family is in such a state now, I guess you won't have anything to eat for lunch.

I'll prepare two dishes and a bottle of wine. You clean up first. Let's go to my brother's place at noon and have a few drinks. Today we have finally avenged ourselves and released all the humiliation we have endured for so long. How about we have a few drinks today to celebrate for you?"

Lin Geng thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay! I'll trouble you today, Brother Damao! Wait for me to tidy up the house, and I'll treat you to a good meal some other day!"

So Xu Damao agreed, hummed a little tune happily, looked like a successful villain, and walked out of the yard to buy vegetables.

However, the people from the remaining four families, Liu, Yi, He and Jia, were completely panicked for a while. It's funny to say, these four families basically only had one woman left, and only the Jia family had two children, a boy and a girl.

The Yi family left behind an eldest aunt, the Liu family left behind a second eldest aunt, the He family left behind the underage He Yushui, and as for the Jia family, only Qin Huairu, Banggeng and Xiaodang, one adult and two children, were left behind.

Seeing that their backbones had been captured, the women of the four families were so frightened that they lost their minds and burst into tears. For a moment, they felt as if the sky had fallen and they didn't know what to do.

Finally, the third uncle Yan Bugui couldn't bear to watch these four women and two children crying in the yard, so he finally stepped forward to persuade them and gave them an idea, asking them to ask Lin Geng, the victim, for help.

This incident is quite serious, but if we can get the forgiveness of Lin Geng, the victim, then there may be room for improvement.

When the first aunt, the second aunt, Qin Huairu and He Yushui heard what Yan Bugui said, they felt that it made sense, so they all got up quickly and ran straight to the Lin family in panic.

The first aunt, the second aunt, Qin Huairu and He Yushui walked to the door of the Lin family, but did not dare to break in directly. They saw Lin Geng was packing up the messy things he moved back from the Jia family in the house, so they all knelt at the door of the Lin family with tears in their eyes.

They choked up and apologized to Lin Geng again and again, begging him to let their families go. As long as Lin Geng was willing to let them go, they would do anything! If Lin Geng refused to agree to their request, they would kneel here and die today.

Lin Geng frowned and looked at the four women, young and old, kneeling at the door of his house. After thinking for a while, he said to He Yushui, "Yushui, get up first! This has nothing to do with you, you are still a child! I won't make things difficult for you! We grew up in the same courtyard, so stop kneeling!

Your brother's case is not a big deal. He is just an idiot who didn't even realize he was being used as a pawn! For this case, you should go to the police station and tell him to pay me fifty yuan as a lesson. Let him use his brains and stop being used as a pawn!

As long as he agrees to compensate me fifty yuan, I will give him a letter of apology, and with that, the police will release him!"

He Yushui is indeed a pitiful girl. Her father He Daqing ran away with a widow when she was very young, leaving behind the underage Sha Zhu and her. She lost the love of her mother and father since she was a child and grew up with Sha Zhu.

Moreover, Shazhu is a little bit stupid and careless. Although he raised He Yushui, he was still a young man after all, and he definitely did not take good care of He Yushui. He Yushui suffered a lot of grievances since she was a child. It's really pitiful to say that. Lin Geng watched the TV series in later generations, and he still felt quite pity for this girl He Yushui.

After all, He Yushui is a student who just graduated from junior high school and is still young. Besides, Sha Zhu has not completely become Qin Huairu's bootlicker and is still quite careless to He Yushui. He Yushui still needs Sha Zhu to support him. Otherwise, He Yushui would not be able to continue his studies and would probably starve to death.

Therefore, even if it was for He Yushui's sake and out of pity for He Yushui, Lin Geng did not intend to put Sha Zhu to death, put him in jail for a few years, and become a mortal enemy with Sha Zhu.

As for his opinion of Sha Zhu, in fact, after watching the TV series and knowing the real ending in later generations, he also sympathized with Sha Zhu. This guy is actually kind by nature and a very honest person. He was used and controlled by Yi Zhonghai all his life, and was hung up and sucked blood by Qin Huairu all his life.

This guy was infatuated with Qin Huairu. He gave to Qin Huairu's family without any regrets and acted as Qin Huairu's blood bag, sucking blood for Qin Huairu until he was old. However, he was deceived by Qin Huairu and in the end, she even refused to give birth to a child of her own. He was almost ruined by Qin Huairu.

If it weren't for the old deaf man's mischief, who had forced Lou Xiao'e into a room with him, the two of them would have gotten together and Lou Xiao'e would have given birth to a son, He Xiao. Sha Zhu would have been completely betrayed by Qin Huairu and left without any children or grandchildren.

But after the reform and opening up, Lou Xiao'e brought He Xiao back to find Sha Zhu to recognize her as her relative. However, Sha Zhu was fooled by Qin Huairu and several uncles in charge, and helped Qin Huairu's family to suck blood from Lou Xiao'e and her son. He also opened a nursing home in the courtyard and took care of the three elderly uncles until the end of their lives.

Later, Sha Zhu became old and useless. The restaurant that Lou Xiao'e gave him and all the family property including the house were swindled away by Qin Huairu and her son Banggeng, and her daughters Xiaodang and Huaihua. Seeing that he was old and useless and no longer worthy of sucking blood, they drove him out of the house on New Year's Eve, where he froze to death under a bridge and was eaten by wild dogs.

In the end, if Xu Damao, who had been fighting with him all his life, had not found his body, driven away the wild dogs, and helped him collect the body, Sha Zhu would not even have a complete body in the end, and would have ended up being eaten by wild dogs.

Therefore, Lin Geng's view of Sha Zhu is that he is pathetic, pitiful and lamentable. Overall, he is mostly sympathetic to Sha Zhu, angry at his lack of fighting spirit and sad about his misfortune. His evaluation of Sha Zhu is also positive, as he believes that although Sha Zhu has character flaws, he is essentially a warm-hearted and kind person.

Therefore, when he saw He Yushui, he thought about it for a moment and decided to let Sha Zhu go this time. Of course, letting Sha Zhu go did not mean that he would get away with it. Lin Geng still asked Sha Zhu to compensate him fifty yuan as a small lesson for Sha Zhu. He would have to teach this guy a lesson when he had the chance in the future to make him grow his brains and avoid being betrayed by Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu in this life.

Fifty yuan is actually a considerable amount of money in this era. Many people's monthly salary is far from this amount. Apprentices now only make eighteen yuan a month, and second-level workers are only in their early thirties. Sha Zhu is now an eighth-level chef in the canteen of the steel mill. With the two yuan subsidy for the team leader, it is only thirty-seven yuan and a half. This makes Sha Zhu proud as if he has two hundred and five hundred thousand yuan, and he brags about it every day.

So fifty yuan is definitely not a small amount of money in that era. In the future when Lin Geng lived, it was almost equivalent to five thousand yuan. Lin Geng asked Sha Zhu to compensate him fifty yuan, which was actually not too little.
