Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

The next day.

Today is the weekend and no one in the hospital has to go to work.

Cao Liang, who was still sleeping, was awakened by the noise outside.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, got up from the bed, put on his clothes and walked out, just in time to meet his mother Chen Huilan.

Cao Liang asked, "Mom, why is there so much noise so early in the morning? What happened?"

Chen Huilan was picking sweet potato leaves at the door. When she heard this, she replied, "Nothing happened. It's just that Xu Damao brought back a very pretty girl, and people in the courtyard are talking about it."

There was a hint of envy in Chen Huilan's tone.

She also wanted Cao Liang to bring a partner back, but Cao Liang's age was a handicap, so she probably had to wait for another two years.

"That's right. Judging from her clothes, the girl's family is well-off. Xu Damao is so lucky to marry such a girl."

The three aunts who were drying quilts next door took over the conversation.

Brought a girl?

Nicely dressed?

Could it be Lou Xiaoe?

Are you going on a blind date with Xu Damao at this time?

Just when Cao Liang was still confused, a shout came from the middle courtyard.

"Shazhu, Shazhu, open the door!"

It was Xu Damao's voice.

Well, needless to say, it must be this guy showing off to Shazhu!

Chen Huilan shook her head and said, "Xu Damao, he wants to show off something like this, really..."

Everyone in the courtyard knows that Sha Zhu and Xu Damao are sworn enemies. They have been fighting since they were young and neither of them would give in to the other.

Now that Xu Damao has found a beautiful girlfriend, it is normal for him to want to show off.

"Mom, I'll go take a look."

Cao Liang said this and walked towards the central courtyard.

Chen Huilan was a little confused.

I thought, doesn't my son always dislike joining in the fun? Especially those in the courtyard, why is he joining in now?

Could it be...

Chen Huilan's eyes suddenly lit up.

I thought, my son must have grown up and wanted a woman.

This is a good thing!

If her son has this idea, it won’t be long before she can hold her grandson.

Meng Xiaoxing who came to our house before was quite good. Her figure showed that she was good at bearing children.

As for Meng Xiaoxing, she was fleeing from famine and doesn’t have a household registration?

That’s okay. Wasn’t she a rural resident in the first place?

With the eldest son's current ability, supporting her is not a problem.

Cao Liang has now arrived at the Intermediate Court.

If he knew what Chen Huilan was thinking, he would definitely be speechless.

He was just curious whether it was Lou Xiao'e and wanted to go and see.

Does that mean he wants a woman?

I must find a woman, but definitely not now.

While he is still young and the times are good, he is busy making money.

"Who is it? Calling my soul so early in the morning!"

Sha Zhu's complaints came from inside the house. After the door was opened, he saw Xu Damao. Sha Zhu said unhappily, "Sha Mao, are you itching for trouble again? Are you looking for a beating?"

"Just you?"

"Can you catch me?"

Xu Damao curled his lips and said disdainfully.

This idiot Zhu, still thinks he is the one who was there before? He is just a cripple, and he still wants to chase me?

"I'm not here to cause trouble today."

Xu Damao pointed at the stylishly dressed girl next to him and boasted, "See? This is my girlfriend Lou Xiao'e. What do you think? Pretty, isn't she?"

Because of Xu Damao's loud voice, the neighbors in the yard also came to watch the show.

Cao Liang in the crowd naturally saw it as well.

He didn't expect that it was actually Lou Xiao'e.

When Lou Xiao'e heard Xu Damao's words, she frowned.

Sha Zhu said directly: "I say, young lady, is there something wrong with your eyes? Why did you fall in love with this Sha Mao when you could fall in love with anyone else?"

When Lou Xiao'e heard Sha Zhu say that she had eye problems, she felt a little angry.

But she was a little curious about Xu Damao.

She came for a blind date with Xu Damao.

Then it is also necessary to hear what the neighbors think of Xu Damao.

So she asked, "Uncle, what happened to Xu Damao? He was a projectionist at the steel mill, had a decent job, and a house, so why is he not okay?"

Normally speaking, Xu Damao's conditions are pretty good.

Young, has a decent job and owns a house.

He is also good at talking.

After hearing her mother talk about these conditions, Lou Xiao'e thought Xu Damao was a good candidate, so she agreed to go on a blind date.

After all, her family background is not good, so her father asked her to marry someone with a good background and keep a low profile.

"Ha ha!"

When people in the courtyard heard Lou Xiao'e calling Sha Zhu, they couldn't help laughing.

Xu Damao was even more unbearable. He held his stomach and almost laughed to death.

"What's wrong?"

Lou Xiao'e was bewildered.

She looked at Sha Zhu carefully and felt that she was not wrong in calling out the name.

What on earth are those people laughing at?

Sha Zhu's face turned pale as he retorted: "Girl, I'm only 24 years old this year. Is it appropriate for you to call me uncle?"

"Ah this..."

Lou Xiao'e was even more confused.

I thought to myself, looking at your face, I would believe you if you said you were forty, but you’re only twenty-four?

"Haha, Xiao'e, you're right. With Shazhu's old face, you should call him uncle."

Xu Damao laughed so hard that tears came out.

"I'm sorry, comrade, I didn't mean it."

Lou Xiao'e was well-educated and apologized to Sha Zhu.

"Never mind. I'm used to it anyway."

Sha Zhu waved his hand and continued, "As for what I just said, this Xu Damao is the troublemaker in our courtyard. Not only does he take bribes when showing movies to fellow villagers in the countryside, he also has an affair with a widow in the countryside. How can you like such a person?"

"Silly Zhu, you are talking nonsense."

Xu Damao said in panic: "Which eye of yours saw me hooking up with a widow? Besides, no matter what I do, it's not your turn to steal the public's women!"

He turned to Lou Xiao'e and said, "Xiao'e, don't listen to his nonsense. This old man was caught stealing public grain some time ago and almost couldn't come back. For a person like him, can his words be true?"

"Xu Damao, you are looking for death."

When Sha Zhu heard Xu Damao exposing his shortcomings, he couldn't help it and limped towards Xu Damao.

"Can you catch me, a cripple like you?"

Xu Damao said this with disdain, but he didn't slow down and ran away directly.

So, a drama of chase and escape unfolded in the Central Courtyard.

But because of Shazhu's disabled legs, he couldn't catch up with Xu Damao.

"Haha, you big fool, why don't you come chase me! If you can catch me, I'll let you hehehe..."

"Also, you said I was a shit stirrer, so what you mean is that everyone in the courtyard is shit!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the people watching the show in the theater turned dark.

This is very offensive.

When Xu Damao passed by him, Jia Dongxu secretly stretched out his foot.

"Ouch~"

Xu Damao screamed and fell to the ground.

At this time, Sha Zhu also caught up, held Xu Damao, and started punching and kicking him, even hitting his genitals.

Cao Liang's heart skipped a beat when he saw this.

This idiot is really cruel!

He actually went to that kind of place to fight.

"Ouch~"

Xu Damao screamed in pain.

Seeing that it was almost done, Yi Zhonghai, who had been invisible, finally spoke up: "Okay, Zhuzi, it's almost done. He just needs to be taught a lesson for his bad mouth."

Only then did Sha Zhu let go.

As soon as he let go, Xu Damao ran behind Cao Liang and shouted at Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu, you dead cripple, I'm not done with you."
