All Heavens Film and Television started from Joyful Qiao Weidong since childhood

Chapter 2875 Yi Zhonghai is up to something.

Thinking about it from a darker perspective, Xu Damao even felt that the reason his father-in-law, Lou Bancheng, got the good deal was because he accepted the Xu family's "toad eating swan meat" at the time.

In a sense, this is probably partly due to the fear that Lou Xiao'e would cause trouble at home and that she would quickly marry and leave to harm others, fearing that he would not be able to live a low-key life.

"Tsk tsk tsk~" Xu Damao pouted.

"This is terrifying to think about!"

The TV series only showed a part of it. In real life, what does one daughter mean in such a large family?
Meanwhile, the general meeting of the entire court was being held in the central courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard was a square table symbolizing status, and three old men sat around the square table, which was also a symbol of status. On the table were three enamel cups.

It's like an ancient government court hearing!
Many people gathered at the Intermediate People's Court, some even chatting with others while still holding their rice bowls because they hadn't finished eating dinner.

"Xiao'e is here!"

"Sit here!"

Why didn't your Da Mao come?

"Yes, where's your Da Mao?"

"Tell your son Damao later that I have a relative coming over in a couple of days, and we should go to the countryside and get him a chicken or something."

Seeing her husband acting like a "friend of women," Lou Xiao'e, who was already angry, felt her anger rise from her heels to the top of her head.

Just as I was about to lose my temper.

"Xiao'e, come and sit down!" An older woman was beckoning to her kindly.

Lou Xiao'e, surrounded by this group of old women, ran over like a swallow returning to its nest, as if she had just seen a savior.

"An old lady!"

"Sit down! It's chilly, why are you dressed so lightly? Sit on this little stool!"

"Mmm~"

Lou Xiao'e felt that among all the people in the courtyard, the old lady and the deaf old lady were the best.

"Da Mao!"

"Da Mao is here!"

Xu Damao, wearing a military overcoat, had just soaked some biscuits in hot water for himself, but Lou Xiao'e's cooking was truly unpalatable.

As she responded to everyone's greetings, she nodded to herself inwardly. It must be said that although the original owner of this body could have affairs, she was indeed very popular in the courtyard.

In my memory, at least she never ate alone. Apart from having a habit of liking flattery, she was happy to share any local specialties when she was in a good mood.

Much better than Sha Zhu!
Although that guy often brought back all sorts of fancy dishes from the cafeteria, apart from the deaf old lady in the backyard who rarely showed up and Uncle Yi Zhonghai, only the Jia family could benefit from it and eat their fill of greasy food.

other people?
Don't even think about it!

That brat Banggeng couldn't finish it all, so he went outside to feed the stray dogs. The other kids in the courtyard were drooling with envy, but Shazhu didn't share any with them.
It has to be said that only the third uncle, Yan Bugui, is shameless enough to get involved. When he succeeds, he is as happy as if it were New Year's Day. So, it goes without saying that the other people in the courtyard are even more so.

Moreover, when Sha Zhuzi gets stubborn, he doesn't care whether the other person is male, female, young or old. He's never been well-mannered since childhood, so everyone in the courtyard is naturally annoyed with him.

However, due to Yi Zhonghai's big signboard of "building a harmonious courtyard", and the protection of that deaf old lady who claimed to have "made shoes", most people just didn't bother with him.

Seeing Lou Xiao'e pouting, Xu Damao didn't bother to go over and make a fool of himself, and instead found an inconspicuous spot to sit down.

"Jiecheng, you said you're getting married!"

“Yeah, Da Mao~” Yan Jiecheng laughed like a silly roe deer from a landlord’s house.

"Has the housing been arranged?"

Well, with Xu Damao's words, Yan Jiecheng, who had just been grinning with his big teeth, instantly turned sullen. "It's all arranged!"

"Everything's arranged, so why are you making such a sad face? Don't worry, when we get married, I'll definitely lend you my bicycle if I don't have to go to the countryside. Didn't we agree on that before?"

"Thank you, Brother Da Mao!" Yan Jiecheng finally got to the point, glancing at the people sitting at the square table in front of him.

He muttered under his breath, "Brother Da Mao, if only my stingy dad were as good as Uncle Xu!"

"Don't talk!"

"what?"

Xu Damao took a handful of sunflower seeds from his pocket; it would be a waste not to have some sunflower seeds while listening to a story. "Now, tell the story!"

If Yan Jiecheng hadn't been so kind as to let Xu Damao ride the bicycle, he probably would have turned on him immediately. "Are you trying to amuse yourself with my troubles?"
“I have two younger brothers and a younger sister. There are only a few rooms in the house. They finally managed to partition off a room for me to get married, but they treated me like a plague and told me to move out and live on my own. I could only keep 5.5 yuan out of my previous salary of 32.5 yuan. It wasn’t even enough to buy cigarettes or for normal socializing each month, let alone save any money!”

"And this is what they want? They're asking for 5 yuan in alimony. Plus, I can't just live in this house for free; I have to pay rent. I only get 32.5 yuan a month, and I have to pay them 10 yuan even if I don't do anything."

"If I had known this, I would have just bought a house from someone else."

"You be the judge, what kind of father is he?"

Yan Jiecheng is 19 years old, which is below the legal marriage age of 20. However, after graduating from high school in a hurry last year, he failed to get into a vocational school, let alone a university.

After successfully getting a job in the factory, Yan Bugui had to hand over his monthly salary, and he was stingy to the core.

“That’s true…” Xu Damao was just about to be a good listener and agree.

Big shots usually arrive last. For example, when almost everyone in the compound has arrived, the three old men walk in one after the other.

Mr. Yi Zhonghai, an old man with a kind and honest appearance, always has a smile on his face. He is sitting in the center, looking around as if he is inspecting his own territory.

His gaze lingered on Xu Damao for a moment, carrying a hint of ill intent.

"Old Yi, almost everyone's here, we can start the meeting!" Liu Haizhong said, sitting down in an official tone.

"Alright, let's start the meeting!" Yi Zhonghai cleared his throat and stood up when he saw that most people had arrived. "Ahem, everyone, please be quiet!"

"Be quiet!"

"Whose child is this? Don't run around here, go home and play. Can't you see we're in a meeting?"

"Excuse me, Uncle, I'll take the child away right away!" Zhang Liang, who lives in the front yard, usually has a very low profile and is the kind of person who lives his life quietly.

"Alright, Mr. Liu, it's normal for kids to like to play!" Yi Zhonghai's main goal was to be a good person.

Liu Haizhong wasn't stupid. He looked at Zhang Liang holding the child, then turned to look at Yi Zhonghai. How could he not understand what was going on?

His face turned green at that moment.
"Pfft~" Xu Damao, sitting in the corner, couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle.

In my memory, this seems to be a microcosm of every instance. Basically, when it comes to manipulating people's hearts, Liu Haizhong is no match for the old fox Yi Zhonghai. He's the kind of person who's all brawn and no brains, and he's basically at a disadvantage in every confrontation.

"that…"

"Something's happened in our compound, so we're holding a general meeting. I'm sure some of you know what's going on!" Liu Haizhong spoke up before Yi Zhonghai, smugly trying to seize control of the conversation, as if he had finally turned the tables.

Upon seeing this, Yi Zhonghai frowned slightly. With Sha Zhu not standing by and no one to speak up for him, he was quite unaccustomed to it.

He glanced at Xu Damao.

"Old Liu is right, but before we start the meeting, there's something I need to emphasize!"
