Chapter 87

After Xu Damao, Yang Qing, Liang Jin Bao and others gave them a dressing-down, the Siheyuan residents' momentum was a bit weak.

Now being scolded again by Chen Xueru, their momentum weakened even more.

Especially Yi Zhonghai and others couldn't fathom Chen Xueru's background, and they didn't dare to offend her rashly.

Today Chen Xueru wore a cotton-silk blended outfit, full of a high-end feel.

Under the lights, she seemed to radiate brilliance, enhancing her already extraordinary appearance.

This extraordinariness made everyone feel ashamed of their appearance and uneasy inside.

Sha Zhu had already reached an agreement with Yang Qing, so he seized the opportunity to speak.

"All right, all right, go back now. The courtyard has just been peaceful for a few days, and you're stirring up trouble again."

"Not to mention being embarrassed, it's purely letting outsiders laugh at us."

After saying that, he pulled He Yushui and left.

Liu Guangtian also pulled Liu Guang Fu, Jie Fang and others outward.

"Let's go, they're just playing the hooligan, used to it, they don't care about face, but we are new-era youth, we can't do such underhanded deeds, we can't afford to lose face over this."

"Go back, go back."

Indeed, Liu Guangtian already had the air of a youth leader of a generation.

Some youngsters also felt that coming over to bully Yang Qing was too embarrassing, so they followed Liu Guangtian away.

Yi Zhonghai suddenly felt that the courtyard was slipping out of his control.

Especially the younger generation, their opinions and ideas showed a clear difference from their generation.

Overall, they are people living in the new era; they have not experienced the hardship and cruelty of past life, so they lack that kind of calculating nature that goes deep into the marrow.

Even though it's a disaster year now and life is a bit hard, they still keep to their bottom line and have not reached the point of madness.

Liu Guangtian has not yet experienced Liu Guang Qi's flight and Liu Hai Zhong's venting abuse, so he has not yet developed that sinister character.

This has created a big difference in thought and behavior between the two generations; previously no one stepped forward, so everyone just went with the flow, but now, led by Liu Guangtian, their true character immediately showed.

Gu Ning tugged at San Da Ma at this moment.

"San Da Ma, let's go too."

They are still working for Xu Damao, having received his benefits.

Xu Damao has stepped forward; they should also withdraw.

Let alone other things, just speaking of Yang Qing's help to her, she couldn't do such an ungrateful thing.

San Da Ma watched her own children run off, and given the current situation her family wouldn't get any benefit, so she grabbed Yan Fu Gui.

"Head of the household, you're a teacher; it's not appropriate to stay here, let's go home."

Yan Fu Gui, though greedy for wealth, still had his own sense of propriety.

He can come out to stand on the podium, but letting him take the lead in such matters is unthinkable.

Taking advantage of San Da Ma's step, he said.

"The matter is like this; indeed it's inappropriate, so I won't join the fun here."

He turned his head and followed San Da Ma away.

Seeing San Da Ye leave, the several households in the front courtyard also departed one after another.

Liu Hai Zhong glanced at Yi Zhonghai, thought about the departed Liu Guangtian, and finally looked toward Second Aunt.

How could Second Aunt not know her husband's intention?

She stepped forward and grabbed Liu Guang Qi.

"Liu Guang Qi, you still have to go to work early tomorrow, let's go home."

"Old Liu, Yang Qing's place has guests; we should head back."

Liu Hai Zhong puffed out his belly, clasped his hands behind his back, and addressed the crowd.

"Hmm, indeed it's not early; you continue, I'll head back."

After saying that, he followed Second Aunt away.

Yi Zhonghai watched people leave one by one; only a few big and small cats remained beside him, not even as many as Liang Jin Bao.

Liang Jin Bao smirked, watching the team led by Yi Zhonghai fall apart, and jeered.

"Those who gain the Way get much help; those who lose it get little help."

"Some people simply aren't popular."

He shouted at Yang Qing.

"Yang Qing, if anyone bullies you again, come find Lord Liang; Lord Liang will decide for you."

"Let's visit the front and back courtyards more often from now on."

After saying that, he took his people and left as well.

His purpose achieved; you also shouldn't even dream of getting what he couldn't get, Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai kept a black face the whole time, glanced at the few people beside him, and said to Yang Qing.

"Yang Qing, you must understand, I'm doing this for your own good."

Jia Dongxu also said.

"Exactly, don't be like a dog biting Lü Dongbin, not recognizing kindness."

Yang Qing almost laughed in anger.

"Then there's no need for you to worry."

"Jia Dongxu, you'd better take care of your own household."

"Your mom won't be out for much longer; when she comes out, Bang Geng, don't go stealing chickens and dogs again. Next time, no one will plead for you; if you reoffend, juvenile detention will be your fate."

Xu Damao chimed in.

Jia Shen'er is the head of the household; Dong Xu can't make the decisions.

I'm just afraid he'll be able to support others in their old age, but when he's old himself, he won't have any hope from his children.

Jia Dongxu heard that and his face darkened.

Yi Zhonghai's heart was pounding thump-thump; this was aimed at him, and also at Dong Xu.

One must not let Xu Damao ruin one's own affairs.

Xu Damao, you can't get ivory from a dog's mouth; how could Jia's sister-in-law teach her own grandson badly?

You'd better worry about yourself.

He had decided that whether Xu Damao's marriage would ruin things or not would be the end of it.

Xu Damao almost blurted out that he had a romantic partner.

But he still held back, knowing these people's nature; he couldn't give them a chance to cause trouble.

I won't bother the eldest uncle; Dong Xu can find a village belle; I, Xu Damao, am not lacking in matters.

I know plenty of village belles; I'll go see a matchmaker today and can bring one home tomorrow.

The key is, I can still support myself; I don't need to suck others' blood—don't you find that infuriating?

Yi Zhonghai was furious this time; without Sha Zhu as his enforcer, he couldn't go up himself, and Jia Dongxu is also good-for-nothing.

You……

Hmph……

Sharp-eyed and sharp-tongued.

Let's go.

Chen Xueru saw the last wave of people leave, also relaxed, and spat on the ground.

Pfft, what kind of people are these?

Afterward, she looked at Xu Damao.

Young man, you can do it; you've done well.

Xu Damao felt a bit puffed up from her praise.

That's right; I, Xu Damao, am not someone who fears trouble—don't believe me? Ask Yang Qing.

Besides, I'm the factory's projectionist; although Yi Zhonghai is formidable, I'm not afraid of him.

Yang Qing laughed watching him brag; it's not like before when he was pressed to the ground and rubbed.

Looking at Xu Damao's appearance, he again remembered something.

Did Sha Zhu's kicking him in the crotch actually involve Yi Zhonghai's participation?

How did Sha Zhu develop the habit of kicking people's crotches?

For such matters, other families' adults give strict discipline, but Yi Zhonghai seems only to protect him.

What role did Yi Zhonghai play in that?

Chen Xueru didn't want Xu Damao to keep getting in the way here, so she praised him with a sentence.

Then you're really impressive.

She also said to Yang Qing,

I have something to tell you.

Saying that, she walked toward the house.

Yang Qing, seeing that, apologetically said to Xu Damao,

"Brother Damao, sorry, I'll go see what she needs."

It's come to this; Xu Damao is no fool, so he took his leave.

"All right, I understand; I'm leaving now, I won't get in your way."

That actually embarrassed Yang Qing.

"Brother Damao, this is no joke; this is my sister, she's very pure."

Xu Damao didn't say anything more.

"All right, I know you're very pure; I'm leaving."
