Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

After seeing off Master Yang San, Xu Changping and Yang Xiaoyue slowly walked back to the central courtyard.

Unexpectedly, those aunties who were trembling like quails just now actually gathered over and surrounded the two of them.

This time, the usually arrogant Jia Zhang has learned her lesson and doesn't dare to easily cause trouble.

Therefore, the second aunt who was dissatisfied with Xu Changping became the first person to attack them:'

"Yang girl, is the man you sent away really your relative? Just now, the people he brought out of your house tied up two people. When did those two people enter your house? How come we, the neighbors, didn't know anything about it?"

Faced with the second aunt's rapid-fire questions, Yang Xiaoyue glanced expressionlessly at the curious eyes around her that seemed waiting to see a joke.

Then she looked at the aunts with cold eyes and responded, "That one is my third uncle. As for the two who were dragged out, they were thieves. My third uncle caught them after he found them and is now helping to send them to the police station to report the case."

However, Yang Xiaoyue's explanation did not seem to satisfy everyone.

Someone in the crowd said in a sarcastic tone, "Thief? We were all working in the yard at noon, so why didn't we see anyone sneaking into your house? Could it be... that you guys were doing something shameful at home?"

The person who spoke was Jia Zhang, who had been hiding behind. Seeing the second aunt taking the lead, she suddenly felt confident again. She put on an ugly face as if she had caught a huge handle on someone else, and shouted triumphantly.

Hearing Jia Zhang's unreasonable and slanderous remarks, Xu Changping's anger was instantly ignited.

He was not as good-tempered as Yang Xiaoyue, and immediately fought back mercilessly: "Hey, hey! Aunt Jia, according to what you said, are you and the thief in cahoots? Otherwise, how would you know when the thief sneaked into our house?"

Xu Changping's words were like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Jia Zhang's heart.

Jia Zhang was panicked, but soon calmed down. Her mind raced and she finally came up with an explanation that she thought was impeccable.

"How can you talk like that? Who is in league with the thief? I just wanted to say that so many of us are busy in the yard. If a thief really came in, wouldn't we be able to see it?"

Hearing this, Xu Changping rolled his eyes and replied unhappily: "Then you have to ask the thief! I'm not a thief, how would I know why you didn't see it?"

After saying this, he no longer paid attention to what Jia Zhang and the others said. He gently pushed Yang Xiaoyue beside him, then turned around and strode towards the courtyard to the east.

Watching the two people walking away, the second aunt quickly reached out and grabbed Jia Zhang, who was about to open her mouth to continue arguing, and said in a low voice: "Don't ask, just go to the police station and ask if anyone has called the police, and then you will know clearly."

On the surface, the second aunt seemed to be giving advice to Jia Zhang, but her real purpose was to instigate Jia Zhang to report the case so that the police would come to investigate Xu Changping and Yang Xiaoyue.

What was unexpected was that Jia Zhang, who was usually not very smart, did not listen to the second aunt's instigation this time.

She suddenly pulled back the corner of her clothes that was tightly grasped by the second aunt, glared at her fiercely, and walked straight to her door without looking back.

Jia Zhang's sudden move really caught everyone present off guard. Second Aunt was originally thinking about adding fuel to the fire, but she never expected that Jia Zhang would turn around and leave without any warning, leaving her on the spot.

The second aunt stood there blankly, her face full of embarrassment and confusion, and she kept wondering in her heart: "What's going on with Jia Zhang today? Why did she leave so suddenly?"

At this time, Jia Zhang had already walked quickly to the door of her house. She stopped, calmed herself down a little, and then took a deep breath, as if this could suppress the surging emotions in her heart.

Although Jia Zhang is always a troublemaker, after experiencing several encounters with Xu Changping and Yang Xiaoyue, she is still somewhat afraid of them.

There was a loud bang, and the door of the Jia family closed tightly. The sound was so loud that the air around it seemed to tremble.

At the same time, the second aunt, who had been in a daze, finally came to her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream.

She turned her head to look at the closed door of the Jia family, then looked back in the direction where Xu Changping and the others had left. After hesitating for a moment, she hurriedly walked towards her home.

Since Jia Zhang didn't go, she didn't plan to go by herself. Moreover, after so much time and all the entanglements, although she still had some resentment towards Xu Changping in her heart, it was okay to cause him some trouble behind his back, but if she really wanted to fight him face to face, that was not the result she wanted.

At this moment, Xu Changping and Yang Xiaoyue had returned to the East Courtyard.

The sunlight shone through the mottled window frames onto the ground in front of the door, forming patterns of interlaced light and shadow. The two men were cleaning up Xu Changping's messy home.

There were all kinds of debris lying all over the ground. Yang Xiaoyue bent down, carefully picked up the chairs that had fallen to the side, and gently straightened them out and put them in place.

Xu Changping was busy sorting out the messy items on the table one by one.

After a short pause, Xu Changping turned to look at Yang Xiaoyue who was busy, and asked in a relaxed tone: "Don't you want to go to your hometown with Master Yang San to recognize your ancestors?"

Yang Xiaoyue stared at Xu Changping with her beautiful eyes and answered without hesitation: "No, and if I really go back, what will happen to you, my fiancé?"

As she spoke, she picked up the pillow that had somehow been thrown into the corner and slapped it hard, trying to shake off the dust on it.

Xu Changping couldn't help but smile when he heard this. The corners of his eyes, which were originally slightly raised, now curved into a beautiful arc. He said jokingly:

"What can we do? Just let it go! We can't let this matter embarrass both of us."

After saying that, he winked at Yang Xiaoyue, causing her to glare at him coquettishly.
