Siheyuan: I can integrate everything!

The residents of the courtyard houses who had been working away from home returned to Shiheyuan.

"What I saw today was truly eye-opening! You would never have imagined that when Wan Xingbang went to report for duty, all the factory-level cadres lined up at the gate to welcome him!"

When Xu Damao returned home, he immediately showed off his testimony.

"Da Mao, are you drunk?"

"Huh? But you don't smell of alcohol. Could it be that you started talking nonsense when you were sober?"

"According to what you said, wouldn't the secretary and the factory director be inferior to Wan Xingbang in rank?"

The attitudes of the neighbors were full of doubt and sarcasm.

"This is because you are short-sighted."

"You know, what kind of person is Wan Xingbang? He is a technical engineer of the seventh level! For the steel pressing plant where I work, engineers of this level are unprecedented. Shouldn't we pay great attention to them?"

"I can tell you clearly that he is willing to come to the steel plant to work. Otherwise, he can choose a better position as he wishes, and it would be no problem for him to take a high position directly.

'

This made Xu Damao a little angry, and he began to exaggerate.

Gradually,

Others also came back to corroborate his words.

Today, there was indeed a scene where the secretary and the factory director lined up in front of the factory gate to welcome Wan Xingbang.

The entire courtyard was shocked by this incident!

This is simply too much!

"Look, our uncle is back. He also saw this scene when he was working and can confirm it for us!"

Seeing Yi Zhonghai returning, Xu Damao's mouth curled up and he imagined a situation that would make Yi Zhonghai in a bad mood.

He was certain that Yi Zhonghai would dislike Wan Xingbang.

If he were asked to confirm the news about Wan Xingbang, he would be quite troubled.

"But he can't lie."

“If the truth were to come to light, it would definitely affect his image.

'

"Our uncle, Xu Damao, said that this morning, the secretary and the factory director were waiting at the door to welcome Wan Xingbang. Is that true?"

People asked Yi Zhonghai who walked out of the crowd.

Just as Xu Damao expected, Yi Zhonghai's face immediately became gloomy!

He recalled the time when Wan Xingbang caused him to be arrested and another time when it was Wan Xingbang that distracted him from work and he was almost caught in a machine tool, nearly losing his right hand.

"Yes......"

"But I am very tired and need to go back and rest."

Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to further confirm these things.

But he knew that arguing would only make his reputation worse.

"Dongxu, you just happened to come back. I heard that you also saw the factory leaders receiving Wan Xingbang. There are also rumors that you were so frightened that your legs went weak and you sat on the ground."

"Is this true or false?"

"Are you really scared to the point of your legs going limp?"

When Xu Damao saw Jia Dongxu again, he made sarcastic remarks without any hesitation.

Jia Dongxu's face turned red and he turned around and ran away.

I was running too fast and didn't pay attention to my feet, so I fell down.

It hurts so much!

He hated Wan Xingbang even more!

"Hahaha, Dongxu, I'm just asking casually, do you have to be so excited?"

"Are you really frightened?"

"It hasn't returned to its original state yet?"

Xu Damao was a little surprised. He didn't expect Jia Dongxu to have such a violent reaction.

Xu Damao laughed heartily.

The onlookers also laughed.

However, Jia Dongxu's face was full of worry and anger. He didn't care about the pain and immediately got up and ran back home.

at this time,

Wan Xingbang came back from shopping for groceries.

As soon as I stepped into the compound, I was surrounded and stared at by neighbors.

"Wanxingbang is going to eat meat again. If you eat like this all day, don't you worry about going hungry?"

"He is a level 7 engineer, earning more than 130 yuan a month, plus various subsidies. It's only for one person, so it's reasonable for him to eat more than he can finish."

"Oh my, a salary of more than 100 yuan a month is simply unimaginable. How should I handle such a large amount of salary?"

“That’s a sum that can’t be wasted!”

The neighbors were envious and jealous, and wished they could replace Wan Xingbang's position.

When Xiaobang saw the ingredients in Wan Xingbang's hand, his eyes lit up. He secretly swallowed his saliva, then quickly returned home, shouting that he also wanted to taste the delicacies.

"Damn Wan Xingbang, he must be showing off his wealth on purpose!"

Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth.

Qin Huairu looked at Wan Xingbang's departing back and couldn't help but imagine again, how happy she would be if she married Wan Xingbang?

An engineer's wife.

Have an identity.

Having plenty of money to enjoy.

Just by buying some daily food, Wan Xingbang almost became one of the public enemies of the entire compound!

He also aroused Xiaobang's greed!

At this moment,

He returned to his home.

Place fruits and vegetables on the table.

Then he took out a big round watermelon.

This unique watermelon from the 1960s is naturally pure and pollution-free.

No need to worry about additives or chemical residues.

The Yan family at home.

"Xie Fang, my elder brother is not at home right now. Take Xie Kuang with you to Wan's house to help."

"Jie Di, you should go over there as well and help with the cleaning."

Yan Fugui suddenly slapped his thigh and arranged for his three children to go to the backyard.

"Old Yan, you are doing this..."

Yan's mother was confused.

"The child volunteered to help, how could Xingbang allow this to go on for free?"

“Even if they don’t pay their wages, they should at least be given some food.”

"Even if we don't give the children anything, what's the harm? It just means that Jie Fang and the other three will have to work harder, but at least they can get closer to Xingbang."

Yan Fugui explained with a smile that it would be unreasonable for him to help himself and he might be laughed at, so there would be no problem if he let the child go.

While the old man was talking,

Yan Jiefang and two other family members have arrived at the house at the rear.

"Brother Xingbang, my dad asked us to come here to help with something."

As soon as he entered the door, Yan Jiefang's eyes were fixed there.

Wanjia Denghuo purchased a large amount of food ingredients and meat and stored them in Yan Mansion. It was even more sumptuous than the New Year’s feast, making people unable to help but swallow their saliva.

"It's just in time. Can you help clean up these vegetables?"

In a blink of an eye,

Wanjia Denghuo guessed the intention behind Yan Fugui: he was obviously trying to take advantage of him.

He sent his three children to help. How could he let these kids work for nothing?

"Jie Di, let your two brothers help with these vegetables, and you can help sweep the yard first."

Wan Jiadenghuo explained to his youngest daughter, Yan Jiedi.

Although Jie Di is only ten years old, it is not difficult for her to deal with things like cleaning.

quickly,

After washing the vegetables,

The yard was also well maintained.

Immediately afterwards, Wanjiadenghuo placed a large watermelon on the table and chopped it into evenly spaced half-moon-shaped pieces with a few "snapping" sounds.

"Team Leader Li, everyone has worked hard. Let's have a piece of watermelon to cool down!"

Thousands of lights waved to a group of deputy leaders and four members who were busy outside the house.

"This doesn't seem good, does it?"

Although the deputy team leader really wanted to enjoy this cool and sweet fruit, it was rare to taste watermelon in this era of scarce resources.

Most people may rarely eat fruits once every two to three years.

"There's nothing wrong with that."

After that, Wanjiadenghuo presented the fruits to everyone present, one petal at a time.

"Liberation, give some to your family and your brother."

Wanjiadenghuo did not forget to give the Yan family the same treatment.

When the children returned with the fruits,

The whole courtyard was in an uproar.

At Yan's house.

When looking at the big fruits and vegetables brought by the Jiefang brothers and sisters, Yan Fugui's face showed a smile as bright as a sunflower.

"Wife, am I right?"

"You won't suffer any loss if you keep good relations with Wanjia Denghuo. Look, just by helping with some small chores, you can enjoy such a big watermelon."

After saying this, Yan Fugui seemed particularly proud.

His wife also agreed with his view.

Because Yan Fugui was known to be stingy and calculating, the family had never bought a big watermelon before.

The big melons my family has recently received were given to them as a gift three summers ago, and we didn’t pay for them that time.

The melon was eaten over several days, with only a little bit taken out each time.

Unfortunately, due to the high temperatures in summer, the remaining watermelons rotted before they were finished.

Even if the melon is rotten,

He didn't throw it away either.

Instead, he told his wife to cook it and eat it anyway - thinking that would be fine - but the family nearly ended up being sent to the hospital.

On the other side of the courtyard,

A figure with a tired and disheveled face appeared in front of the Jia Mansion.

"Dad, there are people begging here, and there may be bad guys."

Banggen yelled.

"I'm ** Zhang**, how come you don't recognize me?"

The exhausted-looking person said in panic - it turned out to be Grandma Zhang who had just been released.

Grandma Zhang and Yi Zhonghai were arrested together.

Later, thanks to the efforts of the mute old lady, Zhonghai was released early, but she never cared about Zhang** until her release.

"mom……"

Jia Dongxu and his wife Qin Kairou came forward to greet them, and at this time——

There was a snap,

Zhang** gave Qin Huairou a big slap.

"You shameless thing, are you hoping that I will die here?"

As he spoke, he shouted angrily.

Faced with this sudden insult, Kairou was stunned for a moment.

Even Jia Dongxu was stunned. What was going on?

"Mom, I'm really not looking forward to anything."

Qin Huairou spoke with a heart full of grief and indignation.

"Mom, what happened?"

Jia Dongxu looked confused.

"You have the nerve to ask what happened?"

"When I was locked up, you were too busy with work to visit me, but Xiaoxing didn't have to work, so why didn't she ever come to see me?"

Faced with Jia Zhang's questioning, Qin Huairu suddenly realized that Jia Zhang was just looking for an excuse to make trouble.

Jia Dongxu also understood the situation at this time.

“Mom, you suffered a lot there.

First wash your face and hair, put on clean clothes, and Huairu will prepare some delicious food for you."

Jia Dongxu almost felt sick when he smelled the pungent odor on his mother.

I almost vomited on the spot!

"You mean food?"

"I know. Wan Xinbang bought some meat and watermelon."

"Dad, mother-in-law, I want to eat meat and watermelon, too. I want to eat lots of it."

Bang Geng kept talking excitedly.

"Speaking of meat..."

"Is there still watermelon when I bring it up?"

"That little devil, he is the one who caused me to suffer this misfortune. I suffered a lot in there, but he lived so carefree outside. Wouldn't he be choked to death?"

"Plus, Yi Zhonghai...he came out on his own but didn't take me with him. He's such a **!"

“And that blind old woman isn’t a good person either.

Obviously, Yi Zhonghai's release was definitely the result of her doing so, but she didn't come to help me escape from prison?"

At this time, Jia Zhang's face looked extremely ferocious.

Whenever I think of the scene of being detained before, I feel a chill in my heart. When I was first detained, I thought I was very proud, but I didn't expect that I would suffer so much and endure humiliation in there.

In the backyard.

At the door of the deaf old lady’s house.

Yi Zhonghai happened to be chatting with the old lady.

"Old lady, regarding Wan Xinbang's house renovation, should we have some trouble with him?"

Yi Zhonghai was resentful towards Wan Xinbang.

"How do we come to cause trouble?"

"If we don't have a reasonable excuse, he might turn around and blame us."

The deaf old lady shook her head to show her disagreement with the idea.

Unlike other residents in the alley, Wan Xinbang is a well-educated man who understands legal knowledge. He is not afraid of Yi Zhonghai and even has a disdainful attitude towards her. The old routines don't work on him at all.

Their conversation gradually became awkward.

When I saw Wan Xinbang sharing his watermelons with the workers and asking the children of the Yan family to take some back with them.

"You are truly worthy of being Wan Xinbang. You actually chose to share your watermelons with the construction workers and the Yan family, but ignored the respect you deserve, old lady."

"Old lady, please be patient. I will teach him a lesson and make him bring you some melons."

Yi Zhonghai noticed the deaf old lady swallowing her saliva to satisfy her craving.

It seems that the old lady is very eager for watermelon, but is too embarrassed to ask for it.

Yi Zhonghai went to the door of the Wan family.

Wan Xinbang is enjoying the delicious watermelon at this moment.

"Wan Xinbang, as a person with higher education, shouldn't you learn to respect the elderly? Why didn't you remember to give some to the old lady when you were enjoying the watermelon?"

Yi Zhonghai put on a serious attitude.

"Did you come here just to beg?"

"Is this how you ask?"

Wan Xinbang responded sarcastically.

He and the deaf old lady were not relatives or friends, and their relationship was extremely bad. He had even been schemed against by her before. How could he specially send watermelons to her to enjoy!

"Kneel down now and kowtow to beg for alms, and if you have the right attitude, perhaps I will give you a melon rind to satisfy your hunger." *

"I'm not a beggar!"

Yi Zhonghai felt extremely unhappy.

When Wan Xingbang said this,

Some engineering teams and neighbors came over to join in the fun, and the strange looks from everyone made Yi Zhonghai feel completely humiliated.

"You are just a beggar."

Wan Xingbang said very confidently.

"Wan Xingbang, I'm not a beggar. I'm here to teach you the principles of respecting the elderly and loving the young. You..."

Yi Zhonghai looked embarrassed and blushed as he tried to argue.

"You come here to ask for food, you are a beggar!"

Wan Xingbang interrupted Yi Zhonghai's words without any hesitation.

"I……"

Yi Zhonghai was about to make another defense.

Hahaha!

People like Deputy Captain Li burst into laughter.

They saw that there was an obvious conflict between Wan Xingbang and Yi Zhonghai, and they went out of their way to insult each other, but they didn't mind helping to make fun of Yi Zhonghai.

"What are you going to do?"

"If you can't negotiate, do you want to rob?"

"You better leave now! If you don't leave now, don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying this, Wan Xingbang stood up suddenly and took a step towards him.

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai pointed at Wan Xingbang angrily, his anger overflowing and unable to vent.

In this courtyard, even people like Jia Zhang had never called him a beggar for no reason, let alone emphasized it so many times!

“I, I…I don’t want to get angry with someone like you.

"

After saying this, Yi Zhonghai turned around and ran away.
