Chapter 867: The Old Hag Slashes the White Lotus

Sihe Academy

There is no wall that doesn't let the wind through!

The news that Qin Huairu had been called away for investigation spread quickly.

In this era lacking entertainment, even the slightest disturbance could spread like wildfire.

Let alone such explosive news!

The middle-aged women gathered in groups of three or five, chattering away lively.

"Have you heard!"

"Qin Huairu is having an affair with a section chief at the Steel Rolling Mill!"

"I heard! I heard!"

"That section chief was arrested, and Qin Huairu was taken away too!"

"I heard that section chief gave Qin Huairu quite a few things!"

"This Qin Huairu is something else, having people providing for her both inside and outside the courtyard!"

"Jia Dongxu's grave must be green all year round!"

"Evergreen is quite festive!"

"I wonder what Shazhu is thinking? Will he break up with Qin Huairu?"

"Did you take the wrong medicine? Is Shazhu that kind of person!"

"Look at my brain! Shazhu is an honest person!"

"Look at Jia Zhangshi! Is she sharpening a kitchen knife?"

"It really is!"

"There's a good show to watch tonight!"

"Why hasn't this Qin Huairu come back yet?"

"Should we go buy some melon seeds?"

"Have you noticed? Shazhu and Yi Zhonghai haven't come back either!"

"This father and son must be with Qin Huairu!"

"Neither the young one nor the old one is any good!"

"No wonder Yi Zhonghai likes Shazhu so much!"

"It's really true that people of the same kind end up in the same family!"

Neighbors were gathering in the middle courtyard waiting for the show, while in the back courtyard, Liu Haizhong was busy flattering.

Cao Weiguo had rooted out a vermin, which was quite a show of prominence.

Although this vermin was one of Cao Weiguo's subordinates, it was still for the good of the people.

Many people were saying that Cao Weiguo had "achieved merit" and might be promoted again soon.

Once this official-obsessed man Liu Haizhong heard this, his heart couldn't stop stirring.

He lowered his pride and condescended to praise Cao Weiguo:

"Weiguo, you are amazing!"

"You uprooted a malignant tumor with the force of a thunderbolt!"

"But you! I must praise you! And praise you greatly!"

"You are brilliant! You are wise!"

"With you here! The Steel Rolling Mill is peaceful! With you here! The blue sky has arrived!"

The Liu brothers looked at Liu Haizhong, feeling as if they had lost all their face.

Is this their father, who usually holds his nose in the air?

Looking at him horizontally or vertically, he looks like a eunuch!

This fawning, flattering face is truly pathetic!

Too pathetic!

Cao Weiguo said modestly: "Second Uncle, you are overpraising me!!"

Liu Haizhong immediately retorted: "No! Absolutely not overpraising! You are the Bao Qingtian of our time! A model for eradicating evil!"

"Come quickly, everyone!!"

"Jia Zhangshi is slashing Qin Huairu with a knife!"

Just as Cao Weiguo was feeling incredibly awkward, the middle courtyard finally exploded.

The long-awaited show had begun! ===== CHAPTER 869 =====
