Go back to the prosperous days and become a layman

Chapter 365 Chapter 364 Convincing people with reason
When the young couple arrived home, the door was closed.

Tang Zhitong thought of the strange looks he received from the chattering ladies when he just passed by the alley entrance, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Mom, is that old man making trouble today?" After Zhang Guifang heard the knock on the door and came over to open the door, Tang Zhitong asked her first question.

"It's okay. I jumped outside the door twice. I closed the door because I was annoyed." Zhang Guifang forced a smile.

"Okay! Jingwen, you and our mother go in first, and I'll go to the back." Everyone has their weaknesses, and they all have their weaknesses, and his family is Tang Zhitong's weakness.

Behind closed doors, the family can quarrel, scold, or even beat each other, but it can't be bullied by outsiders.

"Eucalyptus! Eucalyptus! You come back! It's okay!" The thinking of the older generation is obviously different from that of Tang Zhitong. They tolerate it if they can make do with it, they don't want to see each other when they lower their heads, and they don't want to break up.

"Mom, don't worry. I'm sensible, reasonable, and won't do anything." Tang Zhitong winked at Xiao Wang and left.

"Mom, don't worry, he knows the importance in his heart." Xiao Wang pulled Zhang Guifang towards the main room. She also has her own bottom line and principles. She does not reject getting along with ordinary people, but she cannot be treated as a soft persimmon.

Tang Zhitong did not rush over directly, but came to the water station to understand what happened.

"Preventing a fight" is normal among neighbors. According to the neighbor who was chatting with her, Ms. Liu and Zhang who "persuaded" the fight started to scream.

Now that Lao Lu was trying to smooth things over outside, Mrs. Liu Zhang endured the pain and itch on her body, opened the door, and confronted Tang Zhitong: "You little brat! You just talked nonsense when you opened your mouth. Is that a fight between two children? Then It was your wild girl who held down my grandson and beat him!"

"Come on! Who's afraid of whom?" Tang Zhitong raised his head and looked at the branches at the door. He rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was about to start a fight. In fact, he took the opportunity to move the army of Mao Lazi in the space to it.

Although the streets have organized women's employment and labor since last year, the positions are still limited after all. In addition, some women do not have a strong desire to find employment. As a result, more women are still doing housework at home.

Lao Lu knew in his heart that the last time he broke up a fight, Tang Zhitong was just a temporary worker. In just one year, he first became an "eight member" and then received letters of thanks from superiors with gongs and drums. This honor was not ordinary. If possible, his tone of voice would naturally be polite.

Zhang Guifang was so angry that the two of them almost started to fight, but they were stopped by the neighbor in the east courtyard.

After knowing the ins and outs, Tang Zhitong went directly to the backyard, stood at the door of Liu's house and opened the book: "Ms. Liu Zhang, get out! I was stung by a hot pepper because I don't have eyesight. Why are you going to make trouble with my mother? I think you are an old man who hanged himself. Too long to live!"

Many neighbors in the east courtyard witnessed Ms. Liu Zhang's "dance" yesterday as she took off her clothes. When trying to stop the fight, they inevitably "ran into" the place where she was "lucky" by Mao Lazi yesterday...

"Calm down, calm down. As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors." Lao Lu's attitude was much better than last time, and he wanted Tang Zhitong to calm down first.

Tang Zhitong's words spoke to the hearts of the residents of this large courtyard, and they burst into laughter.

Liu Zhang hid in the house, she was so angry. She had never suffered such a loss in all these years.

"Are you breathing? Come out and talk!" Tang Zhitong knew that there was someone in the room, but when no one answered, he continued to yell, almost breaking the glass.

"How can I say it properly? Her grandson scolded my wife behind my back yesterday. After my sister heard it, the two children had a fight. The school teacher took care of it, and Mrs. Liu and Zhang came to my house to scold me again. Because she is old and weak For the sake of being sick, I just invited her grandson out. But she didn't know what to do, so she blocked the door of my house and scolded me! This is because she is sure that I am not at home, right?" The crowd gathered more and more. More and more, Tang Zhitong suppressed his anger and told the general story of the matter loudly, achieving "a famous start".

"Euclidean, please calm down first. If you have something to say, say it nicely. If you have something to say, please say it nicely." Upon hearing the commotion, Uncle Lu, the security guard of the joint security team, immediately came out from next door to break up the fight.

"What's the matter? We've already had a emotional fight and you still have to give in to your grandson? Do you think everyone in the world is your father and everyone has to give in to your family?" Tang Zhitong sneered at this and was merciless in his words. What nonsense? Stuff!
"You bastard who has a mother but no father, I will fight with you!" Mrs. Liu Zhang was really angry at Tang Zhitong's few words. She pulled up her shoes and came out of the house, looking like she was going to fight Tang Zhitong. Posture.

"Don't mention it, I don't want to have such a neighbor. Unreasonable and unreasonable, ugh!" Tang Zhitong said and spat at the door of Liu Zhang's house.

The scolding was quite unpleasant, and she almost poured shit on the residents of the East Courtyard. The residents of the East Courtyard were not the same people from the Liu Zhang Family Courtyard. There was no moral deity to stop her, and she was spitting all over the place. She had to thank the country for not taking action against her. popularization of law.

Tang Zhitong was sweet-mouthed, and soon the aunt, aunt, and sister-in-law called out, and they quickly learned the whole story.

Seeing that the residents in the east courtyard could not take advantage, Mrs. Liu Zhang turned around and scolded the Tang family.

In addition to taking care of the housework, the gossip after dinner has become the spiritual food of these women. If you want to find out some of the parents' shortcomings, this is the right place to come.

To put it bluntly, Mrs. Liu Zhang just wanted to blackmail people. First she cursed at the courtyard on the east side of Tang's house and asked the residents to pay her medical expenses. She said that the residents in the east courtyard did not keep the yard clean and let Mao Lazi stab herself. .

"Don't, don't, don't. If you have something to say, say it well. If you have something to say, say it well." Lao Lu quickly grabbed Tang Zhitong's arm without even thinking about it.

Tang Zhitong laughed angrily, and Lao Lu's subconscious movements were deflecting.

In fact, there are skills in trying to persuade and break up fights.

For example, if Party A and Party B are fighting, Party A's person holds Party B's hand, saying stop fighting, stop fighting, and physically trying to stop the fight. However, other people from Party A may very well take the opportunity to attack Party B who is being held. People come to have some "close contact".

This kind of behavior is commonly known as being biased.

Of course Tang Zhitong would not leave any excuse to others, in fact it was just a show.

When Ms. Liu Zhang walked down the steps with a dirty mouth, the hot and spicy hair on her head began to fall down.

Mrs. Liu Zhang subconsciously raised her head to see what it was, but by chance something got stuck in her mouth.

At this time, the fight was no longer possible. Mrs. Liu and Zhang were going crazy. The old injuries from yesterday were not healed yet, and new injuries were added today. She was screaming and hurriedly pulling down.

In the rush, a certain hottie was picked up by Liu Zhang and fell into the crowd of onlookers. Suddenly, a clear space was opened.

"Ouch, young and old, please give way and don't splash on yourself. Why does this hottie seem to have eyes and just fall on Liu Zhang's head?" The fight couldn't start anymore, so Tang Zhitong opened his arms and told everyone Back away.

"God opened his eyes." Someone in the crowd said something, which made the neighbors in the yard laugh.

On one side is the howling Liu Zhang family, and on the other side are the laughing neighbors. The picture is unexpectedly harmonious. People hate dogs, which shows how unpopular Liu Zhang family is.

Mrs. Liu Zhang kissed Tangbao, and Lao Lu circled around her, having no time to talk to Tang Zhitong anymore.

Tang Zhitong didn't care about them anymore, but said to the nearby neighbors who were watching: "Please bear witness, I didn't touch her much just now." "Yes, yes."

"We're all watching."

"Liu Zhang said in the alley today, who is responsible for the tree in front of whose house? Should Liu Zhang be responsible for this tree?"

The crowd burst into laughter again when they heard this.

"This is not the first time that Mrs. Liu Zhang has messed with our family. Every time I think that it is not easy for the big guys. It is impossible to judge the 'Five Good Houses' when the trouble is big. But in exchange for repeated forbearance, Mrs. Liu Zhang gets worse." . As the saying goes, one can only do two, but not three. If there is another time, I will not make any noise or make a fuss, and just deal with it directly through official channels." After the crowd's voice became quieter, Tang Zhitong said.

Wuhaoyuan is a title, mostly awarded to the residents of large courtyards. To put it bluntly, it is a reward.

Work well, live well, don't cause trouble, and give every resident in the compound an extra 20 taels of gas coupons at the end of the year.

An independent family like the Tang family cannot meet the criteria for election.

"Euclidean, isn't it? We are all old neighbors." Someone was still thinking about the two taels of gas tickets and tried to persuade Tang Zhitong not to do this.

"Uncle Zeng, since I was a child, I have never had a sip of water or a grain of rice from her family. I have no reason to spoil her family. Maybe you can bear it, but I can't bear it." Tang Zhitong made it clear again own attitude.

Tang Zhitong's purpose was very clear. He mobilized it, let everyone supervise it, and asked Liu Zhang to think before doing anything.

Although Mrs. Liu Zhang is fat, her arms and legs cannot interfere with the common interests of other residents of the courtyard.

As for whether he would be hated by others if he really got to that point, Tang Zhitong thought it would be fine.

People have Mu Qiang's genes in their bones. When it comes to that, most people will probably blindly hate the Liu Zhang family and will not blame Tang Zhitong. After all, Tang Zhitong is reasonable and well-founded, and he has said hello in advance.

Tang Zhitong came out of the courtyard here, feeling refreshed!

After returning home, Zhang Guifang was still a little worried and asked, "How was it? You didn't do anything, did you?"

"Mom, don't worry, I didn't do anything. I was trying to reason with Mrs. Liu and Zhang when a hot pepper fell from the tree and stuck in her mouth. She screamed again, and when I saw the reason, I couldn't reason anymore. Just came back." Tang Zhitong washed his hands and prepared to sit down and eat.

"That's good, don't do anything, it will have a bad impact on you. Besides, just curse a few times, it won't hurt or itch." Zhang Guifang felt relieved and said to herself.

"Should I go to the streets tomorrow?" Wang Jingwen was smiling all day long, but she was also a temperamental person, so she asked Tang Zhitong in a confused manner.

"No need for now, we can't get to that point yet." Tang Zhitong refused. He knew that classmate Xiao Wang was angry this time and wanted to go to Xu Hui.

Firstly, this is indeed not a big deal, and it is not a formality; secondly, I have just said that it is no more than three things, so I cannot continue to break my promise; thirdly, letting Xu Hui deal with such a trivial matter is a bit of a waste of human kindness, too. If it's difficult for her, no matter how much quarrels there are, criticism and education will be the main thing.

Since Tang Zhitong said this, classmate Xiao Wang remained silent.

Zhang Guifang didn't understand what riddle her son and daughter-in-law were playing, but she could tell that her son didn't agree with her daughter-in-law's idea. Seeing that the two of them didn't speak anymore, she broke the quiet atmosphere: "I heard that a sanitary oil came from the grocery store today. , It’s only three cents a pound, but I don’t know how it tastes.”

"I haven't heard of it, have you heard of it?" Xiao Wang shook his head and asked the question to Tang Zhitong.

"I have heard that you get what you pay for, and this oil is not very good. Mom, while we can still buy soybean oil and peanut oil, let's eat soybean oil and peanut oil first. Our family can't save money on this ration for a month. Give me a dollar." Tang Zhitong was a little surprised. He didn't expect sanitary oil to be on the market now.

The so-called sanitary oil is cottonseed oil. It is said that mice can passively complete birth control after eating this stuff.

Although the introduction of cottonseed oil has taken care of poor families to a certain extent, it also shows that the supply of edible oil in Sijiucheng has been stretched...

"Okay, then I'll go get this month's shot early tomorrow morning." Zhang Guifang heard the implication of her son's words and nodded in agreement. It seems that there is no estrangement between her son and daughter-in-law, which is good.

"Mom, Dr. Lin only has morning consultations. We have to go to the hospital for follow-up consultation tomorrow morning." Classmate Xiao Wang reminded.

"I won't go. Dr. Lin really took a moment. I'm fine." Zhang Guifang seemed to have forgotten her doubts a few days ago and praised Dr. Lin at this time.

"Mom, just do it once and for all, don't stop. We can still afford this little money for the medicine." Tang Zhitong was beating the drum at the side.

"I'm really well. Dr. Lin also said that there's nothing wrong with me. If I get better after taking the medicine, I don't need to go back." Zhang Guifang shook her head and refused.

"Really?" Tang Zhitong asked classmate Xiao Wang for confirmation.

"Yes." Xiao Wang admitted with a nod.

"Can I still lie to you? Aren't you going to go on an autumn outing tomorrow? Let's take Jingwen out to relax." Zhang Guifang glared at her son and arranged.

"Okay, if you feel uncomfortable in any way, you have to tell us." Tang Zhitong readily agreed. It doesn't matter if you don't have a ticket for Xiao Wang, just get on the train with a standing ticket.

"Well, go ahead. I'll clean it up for you later." Zhang Guifang said cheerfully.

"What are you packing? Just bring some steamed buns and pickles tomorrow. Mom, Jingwen and I have made a plan to let Fengzhen and Fengzhi learn some self-defense skills." Tang Zhitong remembered what the couple discussed last night, so he said.

"It's not impossible for girls to learn this... but where can they become apprentices? Do they accept female apprentices?" Zhang Guifang asked hesitantly.

"Take it, but you don't need to be a disciple. Hey, Jingwen will teach you. I'll get a sandbag back later." Tang Zhitong pointed at Wang Jingwen next to him and smiled.

"Jingwen also knows how to box and kick?" Zhang Guifang asked in surprise.

"I learned a little bit in my early years." Xiao Wang made a gesture with his fingers, pinching them together, very modestly.

"Wow! Sister-in-law is so awesome, I want to learn! I want to learn! I want to beat Liu Jiaming!" After hearing this, Fengzhi immediately clenched her fists and vowed to express her stance.

"Girls, we have to convince people with reason, whether we beat them or not." Tang Zhitong was stunned for a moment after he finished speaking. This idea of ​​convincing people with reason and beating people seems similar to Confucius?
