Chapter 140: Revenge on Xu Damao

~15 min read 2,922 words

Xu Damao looked back and saw He Yuzhu staring at him with cold eyes behind him.

With an "Ow~", Xu Damao jumped three feet high, couldn't care about saying bad things about He Yuzhu to Tian Wenjiao anymore, and turned around to run.

Tian Wenjiao smiled lightly and stretched out her foot calmly.

Xu Damao only cared about running away and didn't pay attention to his feet at all. He was tripped by Tian Wenjiao and fell directly into a dog-eating-shit posture.

As soon as Xu Damao climbed up, he was grabbed by the arm by He Yuzhu. No matter how Xu Damao shook, he couldn't break free from He Yuzhu's iron-pliers-like palm.

"He Yuzhu, Xu Damao is speaking ill of you. Not only did he ruin your blind date, but he also wanted to dig your wall," Tian Wenjiao said happily.

"No, I didn't. I was just stating the facts," Xu Damao shouted in panic.

"Xu Damao, don't worry, I won't hit you," He Yuzhu laughed lightly.

He Yuzhu wouldn't let Xu Damao go. He just took this opportunity to clean up Xu Damao fiercely.

Punishing the heart is the kingly way. He Yuzhu had already thought about how to punish Xu Damao's heart.

"Really?" Xu Damao asked incredulously.

"Really, I swear to that person, I will never hit you," He Yuzhu said.

"Hehe, Shazhu, you swore, so you can't hit me anymore. Let me go," Xu Damao became arrogant immediately.

"Don't worry, I'll let you go after I'm busy. Don't worry, I've already sworn to that person that I won't hit you. Let's go, go back to the Siheyuan with me," He Yuzhu said.

"Go back then, I'm not afraid of you," Xu Damao said arrogantly.

"Tian young lady, do you need me to send you home?" He Yuzhu asked.

"No need, I'll go back myself," Tian Wenjiao said, turned around, and left.

Xu Damao was drooling at Tian Wenjiao's extremely overbearing figure.

"Xu Damao, stop looking. The water here is very deep, you can't grasp it," He Yuzhu sneered.

"Can you grasp it?" Xu Damao also sneered.

He Yuzhu didn't bother with Xu Damao and dragged Xu Damao back to the Siheyuan. At this time, the five aunts, Hu Shen, were already sitting in He Yuzhu's house, waiting for He Yuzhu to return.

It was precisely because these five domineering aunts were sitting in He Yuzhu's house that Bang Geng didn't take action. Originally, Bang Geng had planned to take action, but seeing these five domineering aunts, Bang Geng didn't dare to take action.

"Yushui, take out the remaining braised food for the five aunts, and take out some cornmeal buns. Can't let these five aunts work for nothing," He Yuzhu said, looking at the five aunts.

"I hope the five aunts don't mind, just make do with a meal," He Yuzhu said.

"Don't mind, don't mind," Hu Shen said with a smile.

This is meat, how could they mind?

He Yuzhu put the leftover meat on the table with an unhappy face and took out ten cornmeal buns. These five aunts saw meat and their eyes lit up, and they ate the meat and cornmeal buns clean in less than five minutes.

"Hu Shen, you pour water to drink yourselves, don't choke. Yushui, you go find Yan Old Miser and let him hold a courtyard-wide meeting. Xu Damao ruined my blind date today, he has to give me an explanation," He Yuzhu said coldly.

He Yushui immediately went to find Yan Bugui. Yan Bugui also wanted to know the result, so he held a courtyard-wide meeting.

"Shazhu, you said it, you won't hit me." Xu Damao suddenly felt a bit panicked, feeling that something bad was about to happen, so he said impatiently.

"Don't worry, I said I won't hit you, so I won't hit you," He Yuzhu said calmly.

"Then why don't you let me go?" Xu Damao pulled his wrist grabbed by He Yuzhu, but He Yuzhu didn't let go at all.

"I'll let you go when the matter is over," He Yuzhu said unmoved.

After a while, the people in the Siheyuan gathered in the middle courtyard. Yan Bugui briefly explained the matter of Xu Damao ruining He Yuzhu's blind date, then gave up his position, and He Yuzhu pulled Xu Damao to the middle of the courtyard.

"Xu Damao, do you admit your mistake?" He Yuzhu said calmly.

"Sha... He Yuzhu, I did say some things to Tian Wenjiao, but those were the truth. I was just stating the facts. Telling the truth is not a crime, right?" Xu Damao said arrogantly.

Xu Damao's words immediately attracted a burst of boos.

"Good, count it as you stating the facts. Telling the truth is indeed not a crime. Then I will also state a fact."

"Xu Damao, he is a man with no heirs!" He Yuzhu suddenly shouted loudly while everyone was listening.

"Shazhu, you are talking nonsense. You dare to call me a man with no heirs, I will never spare you!" Xu Damao shouted angrily.

"I am also telling the truth. Xu Damao, I know you don't believe it, and I know everyone doesn't believe it. So, I am prepared to take Xu Damao and everyone to the hospital for an examination. Don't worry, we won't go to the Red Star Hospital, we will go to a big hospital for an examination, so you don't think I colluded with the doctor."

"Don't worry, I'll pay for this examination. Everyone, let's go," He Yuzhu waved his hand and pulled Xu Damao away.

The beasts in the Siheyuan saw that there was excitement to watch, so they followed. He Yuzhu let the five aunts go home first and said he would find them later.

"Let go, let go, my body is fine, I'm not going!" Xu Damao struggled desperately.

"This matter is not up to you, Xu Damao. Do you really think you can just let it go after ruining my blind date? Grandma! Today I have to give you a profound lesson, otherwise, you won't know why the flowers are so red! Let's go!" He Yuzhu shouted coldly.

He Yuzhu had great strength. No matter how Xu Damao struggled, he couldn't break free from He Yuzhu's big hand.

"Brother Damao, why are you afraid of He Yuzhu? Or do you have no confidence in yourself? He Yuzhu said he would pay for your examination. If I were you, I would take the opportunity to check my whole body carefully and let He Yuzhu bleed a little," Yan Jiecheng said loudly.

Xu Damao naturally had confidence in himself. Hearing Yan Jiecheng say this, he thought it was right. Usually, an examination costs money, and it costs a lot. This time, he would take the opportunity to pit He Yuzhu hard.

Thinking this way, Xu Damao stopped struggling, and the group went to a big hospital in a mighty way.

He Yuzhu didn't talk nonsense and directly paid for Xu Damao's physical examination.

"Hehehehe, Shazhu, thank you, thank you for paying for my physical examination," Xu Damao said arrogantly.

"I hope you can still laugh in two or three hours," He Yuzhu sneered and said firmly.

Seeing He Yuzhu so sure, Xu Damao couldn't help but panic: "Could it be that my body really has a problem? No, it won't. If my body has a problem, how did Shazhu know?"

"This must be psychological warfare. He is scaring me. If I am

"Brother He Yuzhu, why don't you also take out some money and let me have a check-up?" Yan Jiecheng said with a fawning face; the Yan family would never let go of an opportunity to take advantage of someone.

"Get lost!" He Yuzhu said bluntly.

After saying this, He Yuzhu found a seat and sat there with a calm and composed air. As for Xu Damao, He Yuzhu had already let him go when he was having his medical examination.

"Shazhu, I'm leaving now," Xu Damao suddenly said.

"Go if you want. You've already had the check-up anyway; everything will be clear when the report comes out," He Yuzhu said dismissively.

Xu Damao didn't leave in the end. Since he had already been examined, he might as well wait for the results. The result itself wasn't scary; what was scary was the process of waiting for it.

At first, Xu Damao firmly believed that this was He Yuzhu's psychological warfare, trying to scare him.

As time passed, Xu Damao became increasingly uneasy, feeling as if he were sitting on pins and needles. It was mainly because He Yuzhu was too calm; the calmer He Yuzhu was, the more Xu Damao felt like he was on pins and needles.

Xu Damao could only hypnotize himself: "This is Shazhu's psychological warfare. This is Shazhu trying to scare me. I must not let Shazhu scare me."

Xu Damao suddenly felt that time was passing so slowly, it was as agonizing as serving time in a labor camp. After waiting for a full three and a half hours, the results came out.

Xu Damao snatched the test report and examined it carefully.

Xu Damao was normal in every aspect, except for one thing: he had no tadpoles.

Although Xu Damao didn't quite understand it, seeing the doctor look at him with pity, he immediately felt as if his world had collapsed.

"Doctor, tell me, what kind of illness is this? Is there any cure?" Xu Damao cried out in grief.

The doctor explained the situation in detail to Xu Damao and the others, then shook his head with an expression that said, "I'm sorry, we've done our best."

"This comrade, our technology is limited, and there is nothing we can do here. Why don't you try seeing a traditional Chinese medicine doctor?" the doctor said tactfully.

Xu Damao felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning and stood there stunned on the spot.

"Doctor, does this mean he is a 'dead end' and it's incurable?" Yan Jiecheng asked cautiously.

"There is nothing absolute in this world. Perhaps some folk remedies from old Chinese medicine practitioners could treat it." The doctor nodded, but still feeling sympathetic, he gave Xu Damao a glimmer of hope.

"Right! Right! I'll go find a Chinese medicine doctor. Chinese medicine can cure it!" Xu Damao shouted as if grabbing onto a final straw, then walked out of the hospital in a daze.

Although Xu Damao had left, the beasts of the Siheyuan were there, whispering and discussing.

He Yuzhu took the opportunity to leave. He Yuzhu believed that such a thing could not be hidden, especially with a few gossiping women around; in less than a day or two, the fact that Xu Damao was a "dead end" would surely spread throughout the entire street.

He Yuzhu arrived at the Siheyuan where Hu Shen and the other four aunts lived. He first settled the accounts with them, then took out twenty yuan and placed it on the table.

"I have to trouble the five aunts with one more thing. Xu Damao messed up my blind date, so I want to pay him back in his own coin. If he won't let me get a wife, I won't let him get one either."

"I trouble the five aunts to spread the word throughout all of Sijiucheng—yes, all of Sijiucheng—that Xu Damao is a 'dead end.' This is the deposit; there will be another thirty yuan after the job is done," He Yuzhu said.

He Yuzhu was completely cutting off Xu Damao's path; Xu Damao could forget about marrying Lou Xiaoe.

"He Yuzhu, are you telling the truth? Is Xu Damao really a 'dead end'?" Aunt Hu asked.

"It's true. Just now, people from our Siheyuan went to the hospital with Xu Damao for a check-up, and the results are out. If you don't believe me, ask the people from our courtyard," He Yuzhu said frankly.

"Alright, He Yuzhu, we'll take this job. Give us a week," Aunt Hu said.

"Deal. After a week, I'll go around and ask. If it's done, thirty yuan will be yours," He Yuzhu said and left.

After He Yuzhu left, Hu Shen and the others immediately divided the money. Although these five aunts were all unreasonable, since they were all unreasonable, it was equivalent to being reasonable, so the money had to be split equally.

When He Yuzhu returned to the Siheyuan, Yan Jiecheng and the others had already returned. The Siheyuan was in an uproar, with everyone discussing the fact that Xu Damao was a "dead end."

Everyone had an expression of gloating, typical of those who couldn't stand to see others doing well.

"Brother, is Xu Damao really a 'dead end'?" He Yushui asked in surprise.

"Of course. It was checked at a big hospital; could this be faked?" He Yuzhu said.

"Didn't the doctor say he could try Chinese medicine?" He Yushui asked further.

"The doctor was just comforting Xu Damao, afraid he might do something extreme, giving him a glimmer of hope. You just need to know this; don't spread it around. Study hard and try to get into a technical secondary school," He Yuzhu said, patting He Yushui's head.

The more people are told not to talk about something, the more they will talk about it; this was a kind of inherent flaw. He Yushui blinked and said, "I'm going to find my classmate to play."

"Are you going to find that Hu Ya Mei?" He Yuzhu teased.

"Yes, that's the one. Brother, don't call people by their nicknames. I'm leaving." After saying this, He Yushui skipped away. Needless to say, she was definitely going to share this news with her classmate.

He Yushui couldn't help herself, let alone the gossiping women in the Siheyuan. After they had finished talking about it in the courtyard, they began to spread it outside. He Yuzhu believed that before long, the fact that Xu Damao was a "dead end" would be famous throughout Sijiucheng.

"Early detection, early treatment. Maybe Chinese medicine can cure it, or maybe it can be cured when technology develops in the future. Xu Damao, I'm doing this for your own good. The Master said, 'If you repay evil with kindness, how do you repay kindness?' I am repaying evil with kindness. I hope you can understand my painstaking efforts," He Yuzhu said to himself.

However, the corners of He Yuzhu's mouth kept curling up and he couldn't press them down.

Sure enough, happiness is built upon the suffering of others. He Yuzhu was happy from the bottom of his heart.

Early the next morning, He Yuzhu went to the kitchen and found Liu Lan. He pulled her into the office for their routine feeding.

"He Yuzhu, don't, I'm on my period," Liu Lan said shyly.

"I have serious business with you. Spread the word that Xu Damao is a 'dead end,'" He Yuzhu said very directly.

"What? Xu Damao is a 'dead end'? Is that true or false?" Liu Lan asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true. They went to the hospital for a check-up yesterday." He Yuzhu then told her about what happened yesterday.

When Liu Lan heard that someone had been on a blind date with He Yuzhu, she felt a bit unhappy, but then she realized that this was unavoidable. Since she couldn't marry He Yuzhu herself, maintaining this kind of relationship was also fine.

"Deal! Since Xu Damao dared to ruin your blind date, it's only right for you to take revenge. I'm going now," Liu Lan said and left.

By noon, the news that Xu Damao was a "dead end" had spread through almost the entire Rolling Mill.

"Shazhu, you bastard, was it you who spread rumors about me?" Xu Damao glared with bloodshot eyes, like an angry donkey, and rushed into the canteen, shouting loudly.

"Xu Damao, don't you go framing people. When did I spread rumors about you? I was just stating facts. Is it a crime to tell the truth?" He Yuzhu sneered, throwing Xu Damao's own words back at him.

"Ah! Shazhu, I'll fight you to the death!" Xu Damao rushed up in a rage, but he was stopped by the workers who were eating.

He Yuzhu kept winking at Xu Damao. The more He Yuzhu did this, the angrier Xu Damao became.

"Shazhu, I'm not done with you. It's either you or me!" Seeing he couldn't break free from the crowd, Xu Damao roared hysterically.

"Who wants to fight you to the death? Fight yourself to the death. You can ruin my blind date, but I can't spread news about you? Why? Does everything have to be decided by you, and everything has to go your way? I'm not your father or mother, why should I let you have your way?" He Yuzhu sneered.

"Shazhu, you just wait! You just wait! Let me go!" Xu Damao roared wildly.

Seeing that Xu Damao was nearly insane, the crowd let him go. Xu Damao glared viciously at He Yuzhu, turned around, and left resolutely.

"He Yuzhu, don't offend Xu Damao too deeply. Be careful of his revenge. Xu Damao is a small-minded person who holds a grudge for everything," Liu Lan said.

"We're nowhere near that yet. If he takes revenge on me, I'll take revenge on him too. It's not like my heart is any bigger than his. This isn't over," He Yuzhu said with a light laugh.
