A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 957: Tooth for tooth, Jia Dongxu is in trouble! (Please subscribe!)

PS: I am asking for monthly votes. I am still short of more than 400 votes this month. It all depends on my brothers. Xia Tian bows down to you and rolls on the ground to thank you.

Xu Damao jumped out of the car and looked at the broken glass: "Oh my god, how did someone break this glass?"

  After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and ran directly along the corridor on the right to the backyard. After a while, he heard this guy's scolding:

"Who is so wicked as to smash someone's glass in such a cold weather?"

Hua Shier opened the door and looked inside his house. There was no damage inside, but there were some broken glass on the floor and bed, probably caused by the smashing of windows.

Xu Damao cursed all the way back to the middle yard from the backyard. Sha Zhu watched the show at his doorstep and couldn't help laughing:

"Xu Damao, have you done too many immoral things? Otherwise, why are the windows of your two houses broken while others are fine?"

Xu Damao pointed at Sha Zhu and shouted, "Sha Zhu, I think you probably did this."

Sha Zhu laughed: "This is really not something that Grandpa did!"

"Who the hell are you calling grandpa? You're just a grandson!"

"Xu Damao, you've become powerful, right? I'll beat you to death!"

The two of them started to quarrel over a disagreement. Sha Zhu walked up and pretended to fight. Xu Damao quickly hid behind Hua Twelve. He was tough in words but honest in his actions, looking very cowardly.

Seeing that Xu Damao was getting scared, Sha Zhu didn't really want to fight. He looked at Hua Shier and Xu Damao with a smile, then went back in whistling.

From the Jia family, Jia Zhang's gloating voice came: "He deserved it for not agreeing to change rooms last night. This is karma!"

Xu Damao asked Hua Twelve: "Brother, why aren't you in a hurry at all? I don't even know who did this, it's so damn wicked!"

Hua Twelve laughed and said, "It's not that easy to find out who it is. Come on, I'll show you around!"

  He took Xu Damao to the third uncle's house in the front yard. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the family having dinner. When Yan Bugui saw the two of them, he greeted them:

"Twelve, Damao, have you eaten yet? Why don't you sit down and eat something?"

This was just a polite remark. On the dinner table, the family of six each had a steamed bun, and they didn't look wealthy at all. In the middle of the table there was a plate of pickled radish and a pot of chopped green onion soup.

The scallion soup is the real deal, with a few chopped scallions floating in the clear soup and not a speck of oil.

Hua Twelve waved his hand and said, "Uncle San, you're welcome. I just came here to ask who broke the windows of my house and Xu Damao's house?"

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly: "Twelve, you asked the wrong person. My house is in the front yard, and you two are in the middle yard and the back yard respectively. I didn't see you!"

Xu Damao was unhappy: "Uncle, we get along pretty well. Whenever I go to the countryside to show a movie, I always bring you some useful information!"

"This"

Yan Bugui was also a little embarrassed. This was the situation, but if he really told it, he would definitely offend someone if the two of them had a fight!

Hua Twelve smiled and took out a dime and put it on the table: "Uncle, this is not a difficult time, right?"

A dime is a lot these days. It can buy half a pound of rice, and that has to be high-quality refined rice.

Yan Bugui slapped the money and said, "What a mess this is. Is Third Master a money-loving person?"

When he raised his hand, the money was gone, so he put it in his pocket and put the money into the treasury.

Hua Shier watched with a smile, thinking that this was a case of both being in power and being in authority.

Yan Bugui took the money and no longer worried about offending anyone: "I was at work during the day and I really didn't see it."

Seeing Xu Damao getting angry, Yan Bugui quickly got to the point: "But your third aunt is at home, and she told me that it was the deaf old lady in the backyard who did it!"

The third aunt nodded: "It was the deaf old lady who hit it with her walking stick!"

"Hey, I'm looking for her."

Xu Damao pretended to make a scene.

Hua Shier grabbed him and said, "If you go find her, will she admit it? She's so old, you can't scold her or touch her. She has the support of the old man and Sha Zhu. If she doesn't do well, she'll beat you up and you won't even have a place to cry!"

Xu Damao thought so too. Every time he and Sha Zhu quarreled, he was the one who suffered. What’s more, this time he had to face a deaf old lady.

He stamped his feet unwillingly: "Just let it go like that? How aggrieved!"

Hua Twelve ignored him, took out another dime and put it on the table: "Later, please help me as a witness, Auntie!"

  This time, Yan Bugui looked at the dime with envy, but did not reach out for it:

"It's not that I don't want your third aunt to testify, the key is that she didn't see it with her own eyes!"

The third aunt explained to the two men: "When I heard the noise and went to watch, the glass had already broken. I heard from other people in the courtyard that it was the deaf old lady who did it!"

Xu Damao couldn't help but feel a little discouraged: "It's over, how can we deal with this matter!"

Hua Twelve was calm and composed: "It's okay, let's just leave it like this for now and we'll see!"

  After saying this, he stretched out his hand to take the money, but Yan Bugui slapped the dime in his face:

"Twelve, although I can't testify for you, I still have some news about you. Do you want to hear it?"

Hua Shier was happy. He didn't want to miss this dime, so he nodded and signaled the third uncle to talk about it.

Yan Bugui whispered:

"Didn't you buy a bicycle? Actually, I knew about it a long time ago. When I got off work today, Lao Yi and Sha Zhu saw you at the gate of the steel mill. They came back and discussed what they were going to do to your bicycle. They thought your bicycle was not legitimate. I guess after dinner, the hospital will hold a meeting to make trouble for you."

Xu Damao spat: "This is really shameful!"

Yan Bugui added, for the sake of the two dimes, "Twelve, tell Uncle San, is there really nothing wrong with the bicycle? If there is a problem, tell me now and Uncle San will help you find a solution!"

"Thank you, Third Uncle. My car has a good origin. Well, we should visit each other more often. Damao and I will go back first!"

Yan Bugui gave Hua Shier the impression that he was a good match. With just a dime or two, you could establish a relationship with him and get him to do things for you. It would be hard to keep such a relationship.

In the future, you have to temper your mind in the courtyard and experience joy, anger, sorrow and happiness. But you can't treat all your neighbors as enemies. The right way is to win over some and suppress some.

Although Xu Damao and Yan Bugui each have their shortcomings, they are both genuine people. Hua Shier decides to develop these two people into his own group.

After leaving Third Uncle's house, Xu Damao felt a little depressed: "So, let's just forget about this? Is this loss in vain?"

"Of course we can't just let it go like this, Damao, just wait and see!"

Tempering the mind does not mean torturing the heart, and Hua Twelve will not suffer in vain.

Xu Damao wanted to go back, but Hua Shier pulled him out. Although he couldn't find anyone to install the glass at this time, he could still find something to block the wind.

They went to a nearby scrap yard, threw a dime to the night shift worker, and found a few pieces of old particle board that were about the size of the window. The two of them carried them back to the courtyard and used them to block the window at night to get by for the night.

  As soon as they entered the front yard, they saw three old men sitting in the middle. All the families came out and formed a circle to watch the fun. When they saw the two of them coming back, Liu Haizhong glared at them:

"You two are so outrageous. There's a meeting in the hospital and so many people are waiting for you two!"

Sha Zhu raised his hands and added insult to injury: "Of course I'm telling you. Making three old men and the neighbors wait for you two in this cold weather is a typical example of being unorganized and undisciplined, isn't it, everyone!"

Xu Damao immediately exploded: "Silly Zhu, you are talking nonsense, who notified us of the meeting, are you trying to frame me?"

Perhaps because he had just received the money, Yan Bugui said something fair:

"If you ask me, they can't be blamed for this. After all, they were not notified. Just like Lou Xiao'e is also from our hospital. She went back to her parents' home and didn't know we were holding a meeting. You can't say Lou Xiao'e is wrong, right? This is called ignorance is not a crime!"

Xu Damao looked at Sha Zhu with disdain: "Look, Third Uncle is really cultured, but you can't even speak a word of human language!"

Sha Zhu picked up the bench directly. Xu Damao immediately backed off and hid behind Hua Twelve again: "You all saw it. Sha Zhu was going to commit a crime."

"okay!"

Yi Zhonghai slammed the table and said, "What are you making a fuss about? Is this the whole institute meeting to watch you guys making trouble? Behave yourself!"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Hua Twelve:

"Twelve, today's meeting is for you. Let me ask you, where did you get that bicycle?"

Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu were sitting together and interrupted, "Is there any need to ask? I think it was probably stolen!"

Hua Twelve smiled and waved his hand: "Aunt Jia, you mean that an uncle shouldn't ask, right? Then you can preside over the meeting of the whole hospital and let the three uncles step down and give way to others. From now on, you will be the leader of the hospital!" Jia Zhang is okay at talking nonsense, but she is not worthy of being on stage. If you ask her to stand up and say something seriously, she will be at a loss and stammer, unable to speak.

  Liu Haizhong was an official fanatic. When he heard Hua Twelve's words, he immediately felt that Jia Zhang had shaken the authority of the three masters in the courtyard. He knocked on the enamel pot:

"Ms. Jia Zhang, the three of us are here to question you. What do you want to do?"

After being criticized twice in a row, Jia Zhang was about to lose her temper. Yi Zhonghai quickly winked at Jia Dongxu, who persuaded his mother to calm down.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Hua Twelve and said, "Tell me, where did you get that car?"

"I bought it, where did it come from? How could an old man give me one as a gift? Oh, you know what, it makes sense to say that you gave it to me as a gift, after all, the money for the car included the 100 yuan you sponsored this morning!"

  Yi Zhonghai felt heartbroken when he thought of that hundred, and his face darkened:

"The money is understandable, but where did you get the bicycle ticket? Everyone knows how tight the bicycle tickets are now. Our factory only awards one bicycle ticket every year when we evaluate advanced workers. You don't even have a proper job, so where did you get the bicycle ticket?"

Hua Twelve laughed: "Director Wang from the Street Office gave it to me, what's wrong with that?"

  Yi Zhonghai didn't expect Hua Twelve to give this answer, and immediately questioned:

"Why did Director Wang give you a bicycle ticket?"

Hua Shier put down the board, took out a small notebook and a pencil from the pocket of his work pants, and started writing while muttering to himself:

"An old man questioned the decision of the street director Wang and secretly inquired about his real intentions behind his back."

This guy has brought out the Jinyiwei's Wuchang Book, and it depends on whether Yi Zhonghai can withstand it.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't remember it. I didn't do it." Yi Zhonghai felt a chill in his head. He was clearly questioning Hua Twelve, but when the latter said that, it seemed as if he was engaged in espionage activities and had bad intentions towards the street leaders.

Hua Twelve looked at Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui: "Second uncle, Third uncle, do you also want to inquire about Director Wang's affairs?"

Liu Haizhong shook his head like a drum: "It's all Old Yi's fault. He insisted that your bicycle came from a dishonest place. It has nothing to do with us!"

Yi Zhonghai was almost angry to death, and quickly explained:

"Twelve, you misunderstood Uncle Yi. After all, a bicycle is a big item. Apart from your Third Uncle's old bicycle, this is your second bicycle in the yard, and it's a brand new one. Uncle Yi just cares about you and is afraid that you will go the wrong way. Can you tear up the thing you remember?"

Hua Twelve put away the small notebook: "Hey, I'm just writing a diary!"

Who would keep a diary if they were serious?

  Yi Zhonghai felt that he had lost more than he gained. Hua Twelve said that Director Wang gave it to him. If he asked further, it would be questioning Director Wang. This stopped him from asking any more questions. He thought of another plan:

"Twelve, I still believe you. Since you said that Director Wang gave you the ticket, there must be no problem. This is the first new car in our hospital. This is a happy event. According to the hospital's rules, we have to set up a few tables to celebrate. I think we should do it tomorrow. Do you support my decision?"

His last question was directed to his neighbors, inciting everyone to embarrass Hua Twelve.

Who are all the people in this courtyard? How could they not be willing to eat for free? Jia Zhang was the first to shout, "Support!"

Others also shouted their support for the uncle's decision.

Well, let Hua Shier prepare the banquet and let Yi Zhonghai get all the favors.

Xu Damao kept winking at Hua Twelve, worried about him.

Hua Twelve smiled and bowed to everyone around him: "Thank you very much for your sponsorship. I didn't expect that after I bought a car, everyone would treat me to a meal!"

One sentence made the scene quiet instantly.

Jia Dongxu glared: "Hua Twelve, you are mistaken, why should we treat you to a meal just because you bought a car? You should treat us to a meal."

Hua Twelve laughed: "Then why should I treat you to a meal?"

“You bought a car!”

"Buying a car is none of your business. Otherwise, if you give me a five-dollar gift, I'll treat you to a meal. Do you want to do it?"

  Before Jia Dongxu replied, Jia Zhangshi couldn't stand it anymore. She took a step forward and adopted the street-swearing posture that middle-aged and elderly women of this era had inherited for hundreds of years, and she was about to start cursing.

How could Hua Twelve let her curse out loud, hetui!

From a distance of two or three meters, a mouthful of spit flew into Jia Zhang's throat. The old witch's face turned green. She choked several times and her face turned red from coughing. It took her a long time to recover. Then she realized that someone seemed to have spit on her. She felt disgusted and hurried back to gargle.

Everyone around burst into laughter. Jia Dongxu was so angry that he was about to attack, but Hua Shier hooked his finger at him with contempt. This guy was just like Xu Damao, and he immediately backed down.

After all, Hua Shier beat them in the morning and they had no power to fight back, and Jia Dongxu didn't want to be beaten again.

  "Nonsense!" Yi Zhonghai yelled angrily, but after thinking for a while, he suppressed his anger and continued to plan:

"It's all voluntary to treat guests. If you don't want to treat, then don't treat. But Twelve, you bought a car, and people in the courtyard want to borrow it from you, you can't refuse to lend it to them!"

"Okay!"

Hua Twelve accepted all the challenges:

"You can borrow the car, but it's not cheap. Let me be frank. The deposit is 300 yuan. When the car is returned to you, I will use a flashlight to assess the damage. If there are no scratches, I will return the deposit. If there are scratches, I will deduct money!"

After he said this, the neighbors who were originally planning to borrow the bicycle immediately stopped trying. Although they didn't know what it meant to use a lantern to assess damages, it was inevitable that a bicycle would have some scratches, bruises, or even some paint loss, which would require compensation. They might as well have lost their legs.

Seeing that he couldn't trick Hua Twelve, Yi Zhonghai waved his hand in frustration and said, "Disperse!"

"and many more!"

  The situation has been put together, how can Hua Twelve just let it go?

"Uncle, the windows of Xu Damao and I's house were smashed today. You have to take charge of this matter for us!"

Yi Zhonghai disagreed: "Who knows who you have offended? Where can we find someone to handle this matter?"

After saying that, he took the teacup and was about to leave.

Hua Twelve nodded: "Okay, if the uncle doesn't care, Damao, let's go call the police!"

Xu Damao's eyes turned: "Yes, call the police!"

"Can't call the police!"

Yi Zhonghai suddenly became anxious: "What's wrong with you two? Our hospital has been a civilized hospital for two consecutive years. If you call the police, will we still have a civilized hospital?"

Hua Twelve laughed: "When someone smashed the glass and bullied you, what kind of civilized compound is this? Are you kidding yourself or the Guo family?"

This big accusation made Yi Zhonghai want to vomit blood. He gritted his teeth and took out three dollars:

"Glass costs 30 cents a piece, and this can be sold for 10 yuan. Here's the money. Stop making trouble. You have been making trouble all day long. Dismiss!"

Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu were gritting their teeth as they watched. They were beaten in the morning. Old Lady Long smashed the glass to vent her anger on Sha Zhu, but she didn't expect that she would also ask the old man to pay for it. Wasn't all her anger vented in vain?

Hua Shier and Xu Damao didn't care and happily went to block the windows with boards.

At night, when it was late and quiet and the villains had all gone to rest, Hua Twelve went out quietly, picked up a few soybean-sized stones on the ground, flew up to the roof, stood on the eaves, and looked around the house.

In front of the house is the middle yard, and behind the house is the back yard.

Hua Twelve used both hands and stones as hidden weapons, and then he heard the sound of glass breaking in the middle and back yards.

After the hidden weapon was thrown, Hua Shier jumped off the roof silently and went into the house before anyone came out.

  Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai, the Jia family, and the deaf old lady all turned on their lights. Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu were the first to rush out:

"Who the hell broke the glass?!"

Sha Zhu also shouted, "Dongxu, your glass was also broken? My house was also broken, look, the glass of an old man's house was also broken."

After this commotion, all the neighbors in the compound came out to watch, including Hua Shier and Xu Damao. Yi Zhonghai looked at the broken glass in his own house, then looked at Hua Shier and Xu Damao, his face as dark as ink.

Liu Guangfu from the second uncle's house also ran over to tell Yi Zhonghai that the deaf old lady's house had also been smashed.

Sha Zhu pointed at Hua Shier and Xu Damao viciously and asked, "Did you two do this?"

Xu Damao pointed back: "Silly Zhu, you're talking nonsense. I think it was you who did it!"

Hua Shiyi waved his hand and said, "It's useless to say anything. Call the police. We can also investigate the incident of breaking the glass during the day. Let's go and call the police."

  Yi Zhonghai was about to lose his temper, but he lost his temper after hearing this. He had to stop them from calling the police. Then he looked at Hua Shier and Xu Damao, and said to the surroundings:

"I'll have someone close these windows later. I hope the glass-breaking issue will stop here."

Hua Shier laughed and didn't bother to call the police. He thought that after what happened today, Yi Zhonghai and the others would probably behave themselves for a while.

  Nothing happened that night. The next day, Hua Twelve went to find someone to replace the glass in his house and Xu Damao's house. Just as he was about to go out for dinner, a man in a steel mill work uniform ran in hurriedly:

"Where does Jia Dongxu live? Hurry up, he has an accident at the factory."

Thanks to: 08a, Brother Little Tiger of the Devil, and Brother Li Meng, the God of Death, for their rewards. Thank you to the brothers who voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes. Thank you very much.
