Siheyuan: After I moved in, the compound became a mess

Xu Damao frowned, his mind full of doubts.

"Old Yan, what is Yi Zhonghai up to? He was not this kind of person before."

Xu Damao parked his bicycle, took out a cigarette and handed it to Yan Bugui, then lit a match and put the flame to Yan Bugui's mouth, "We have to tell Lao Liu about this, and make him pay attention to it!"

Yan Bugui took a deep puff, as if he hadn't smoked for a day, his eyes narrowed comfortably, "Humph, who knows, maybe he wants to win over the neighbors and rebuild his prestige. But Damao, you're right, we really have to be careful."

Xu Damao nodded, and after a moment's silence, he said harshly, "Old Yan, you are right about this. I think he just wants to reestablish his image in the hospital. But no matter what his intentions are, I think we have to strike first."

Yan Bugui's eyes lit up and he moved forward, "Da Mao, what do you mean by that?"

Xu Damao leaned close to Yan Bugui and whispered, "We can find an opportunity to trip him up and let everyone in the hospital see that Yi Zhonghai is still as incompetent as ever. What they see now is just his pretense."

Yan Bugui hesitated. "It's not good. If our tracks are exposed, we won't be able to live in the courtyard!"

"Old Yan, you are so timid. What are you afraid of? As long as you do it cleverly, you can keep your heart in your stomach and no one will find out."

Xu Damao snorted disdainfully, "Besides, do you want to watch him snatch your position away? Let me tell you, Yi Zhonghai is waiting for the three of us, Lao Liu, to make a mistake. Whoever makes a mistake will be targeted. When he wins over the good people in the courtyard and has a certain prestige, will we still have something to worry about?"

Yan Bugui gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Damao, let's do as you say, but we have to discuss this with Lao Liu and Dabao. We have to be cautious and not take it lightly."

Xu Damao raised his lips with a sinister smile, "Don't worry, this is what I thought too. I must inform Dabao, Lao Liu and the others about this."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and dispersed with their own ulterior motives.

Backyard, Liu's house.

The family was eating around the dining table. Although the brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were usually noisy in the yard, they were as quiet as plucked chickens at the dinner table.

"Dad, you don't know, I ran into Yi Zhonghai yesterday morning, and the old guy took the initiative to say hello to me."

Liu Guangtian held the rice bowl, glanced at the scrambled eggs, swallowed his saliva and reported to Liu Haizhong carefully, "Really, he smiled and waved at me from a distance, I thought I saw it wrongly."

Liu Haizhong stopped picking up the egg with his chopsticks and pondered for a moment: "What did he say to you?"

"He didn't say anything, just greeted me and asked about my work." Liu Guangtian frowned and thought, "At first I thought he was asking me about my work to put me off, but later I saw that he didn't mean that at all. He even encouraged me and said that he was not as good as me when he was young."

Watching the second half of Liu Guangtian's excited narration, Liu Haizhong's face darkened.

"You lose your mind when someone praises you?"

Liu Haizhong put his chopsticks on the table, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "I think Yi Zhonghai has bad intentions. As your father, I know your character best. What is there in you that deserves praise? He is trying to flatter me to death!"

"Dad, what is flattery?"

Liu Guangfu spoke carefully and flatteringly.

"Dad, I am your son after all. How can you not be happy when someone praises you?"

Liu Guangtian suddenly looked listless, and his hands holding the chopsticks became weak. "I think Yi Zhonghai was very serious and sincere. He also encouraged me to study hard and become a formal employee in the future."

Seeing that the father and son were about to have a conflict, the second aunt quickly spoke out to stop them: "Guangtian, that Yi Zhonghai is full of bad intentions. Your father said that he is not a good person. Just listen to your father."

Liu Guangtian immediately felt that the meal was extremely boring: "I know he is not a good person, but what he said is true. It is quite inspiring to me. I am also thinking about working hard to learn technology tomorrow."

"Snapped!!!"

Liu Haizhong slapped the dining table. Not only was Liu Guangtian shaking with fear, but even Liu Guangfu, who was eating, almost wet his pants.

Liu Guangfu feels so miserable!

Your own rules are unclear, can't you just beat them every time they make a mistake?

No, when Liu Haizhong gets angry, he won't let go of even the innocent one. Liu Guangfu has suspected more than once that his father just can't get enough of beating one person.

Otherwise, why do we have to punish two people at once for every mistake made by one person?

But the key point is that nine times out of ten it was Liu Guangtian who made the mistakes, and Liu Guangfu was the one who was beaten as well!

For example, now, Liu Guangfu kicked his second brother's calf under the table, and gave him a subtle look, signaling him not to go against Old Liu, otherwise he would have to be beaten again in the evening.

"I said he had bad intentions, and that's right. Don't you know what kind of person you are? Why are you still so smug?"

Liu Haizhong began to roar at Liu Guangtian, scaring Liu Guangtian so much that he almost buried his head under the table.

"Guangtian, hurry up and apologize to your father." The second aunt quickly stood up to separate the two, then looked at Liu Haizhong, "Old Liu, don't be angry with the kids. After what happened today, they know to be wary of Yi Zhonghai."

"Humph, Yi Zhonghai, this hypocrite, actually infiltrated my Liu family. How despicable!"

Liu Haizhong slapped the table again, pondered for a while, then picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Seeing that Liu Haizhong was thinking about something and had no intention of paying attention to the two boys at home, the second aunt put her mind at ease. She immediately winked at the two brothers and cleared their bowls and chopsticks: "Okay, go back to the house after you finish eating, and don't be an eyesore to your father."

"Mom, I'm not full yet..."

Liu Guangfu muttered something weakly, but before he could finish, he was glared back by Second Aunt.

The two brothers left the table angrily and returned to their room.

"Second brother, why do I feel that what you said is a bit mysterious? How could that old bastard Yi Zhonghai talk to you with a smile and encourage you to work hard?" Liu Guangfu also found it a bit unbelievable.

"Guangfu, even you don't believe in my second brother?"

Liu Guangtian lit a cigarette and smoked it, completely ignoring his brother who was talking nonsense next to him. "Didn't I tell you that at first I thought he was being sarcastic, but his tone was so sincere that I was completely confused."

"Later, he taught me how to learn skills and showed me how to become a formal employee step by step. It seemed like he was doing it for my own good!"

"Something's wrong, second brother. You and dad beat him up a few days ago. Could he have forgotten about it in just a few days?!"

"To be honest, I'm also very confused, but no matter how I think about it, what they say makes sense!" Liu Guangtian was in a bad mood. He threw the remaining cigarette butt on the ground. He couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it and fell on the kang to flip through the picture book.

Liu Guangfu looked at the cigarette butt on the ground and hesitated for two seconds, then quietly jumped off the kang, picked up the cigarette butt, blew it, and put it in his mouth and sucked hard.
