Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 360 Xu Damao escaped from death
The workers were all working overtime at this time, and there were no workers in the yard. The second uncle entered the middle yard with his hands behind his back. There was really something wrong with it, and no one could show it off. Unlike this afternoon, there were always people coming to inquire. If he wasn't thinking about the news about the boss, it would be really difficult. I couldn't bear to leave the workshop.

Now that the sun has gone down, the children after dinner come out to run wild again. Occasionally, a few aunties say hello to Liu Haizhong, but most of them ignore it. Liu Haizhong doesn't mind at all, and still heads home with his hands behind his back and his head held high. Go, even the deaf old lady sitting at the door looking at the sunset didn't take the initiative to say hello, she just cleared her throat and coughed.

The second eldest mother and the three of them had just finished eating and were cleaning up. When they heard a cough outside, the two little guys who were about to go out were shocked. They looked at each other, quietly turned around and went back to the room, hid the toys in their hands, and started pretending to study.

"Master, why didn't you work overtime today and didn't say hello in advance? You haven't eaten yet. There's just some food left. I'll get you some food."

Seeing the old man coming back with a smile on his face and hands behind his back, the second aunt was a little surprised and quickly prepared to get some food for the old man.

"Well, I've eaten in the cafeteria, but today is a good day. Spread out two more eggs, bring me the plate of peanuts, and drink some with me later."

Seeing the old man's undisguised joy, the second aunt also felt relieved. This has not been like this for a while. Ever since the old man was beaten by Silly Zhu and he admitted his mistake at the courtyard meeting, the family has been living well. Depressed.

"Old man, if you have any good news, please tell me quickly so that everyone can be happy."

The second uncle came back again, with a smug look on his face, but he tried his best to keep it understatement.

"There is no news from the boss..."

"Don't lie. He has never experienced any hardships. I will teach him to learn to endure hardships and stand hard work, and to have a revolutionary and optimistic spirit..."

The second uncle was drinking a small drink, and the second aunt was sitting with him. The two brothers sat on a small stool and listened to the father's continuous summary speech.

The second aunt raised her hand to wipe her tears, turned around and said hello, only to hear a reply from inside. The two children came out and took the money and tickets. After listening to a few words of explanation, they ran away quickly.

"Mom, I bought some pig head meat and sesame. The grocery stores and supply and marketing cooperatives are closed. The third child borrowed two from Xuemei."

The second aunt pulled up the stool and sat down, asking again and again. The boss had been gone for more than a year without writing a letter. Suddenly so much information came out, and the second aunt was a little anxious.

The second aunt was a little confused as she watched her husband talk. Did her eldest son grow up like this? Why couldn't she remember?

"Listen up, you two bastards. Aren't you always whispering that I'm too strict with you? Don't think I don't know. Look at your elder brother, how could you be so successful if I didn't control you like this?"

"You said the boss got married? He also made meritorious service? Is he okay?"

"These two things are really far behind the boss. He can't keep his composure at all. You see, the boss is not afraid when facing danger and handles it calmly. This time he has made a great contribution."

"Second brother, you go for a run and buy some eggs and some braised vegetables. If the egg seller is off work, go and borrow some from someone."

"It's fine. They didn't cause any trouble. Tell me first. What's going on? Why did the boss quietly get married without telling his family? How is the daughter-in-law? How did the boss get hurt? Already...".

It was like a burst of thunder passed by the second aunt's ears, and a rainbow after the rain appeared in front of her eyes. The second aunt's face was full of surprise, and she tremblingly grabbed her husband's right hand.

The second uncle pretended to be casual, patted his wife's hand, and took out his right hand. The second aunt quickly handed him a stool for him to sit down.

While recalling the experience of teaching the eldest son, the second uncle summed up some chicken soup for the soul from time to time. He felt more and more that his training of the eldest son played a vital role in his growth.

While the second aunt was packing, the second uncle leaned against the door frame and talked loudly. The second aunt wiped her tears from time to time, but she didn't expect that the boss would run away to Lu Province without saying a word.

"Let me tell you, this is the right way for me to teach my children. As the old saying goes, you can't become talented without fighting. These two boys have to find opportunities to clean up."

"Bring them all over and let your mother cut them. Don't run away. Listen to your eldest brother's meritorious service later and get some education. Don't do nothing serious all day long and just play around."

"I don't know if he will get used to being treated there. This kid has never suffered hardship since he was a child. It's really difficult for him to have to deal with it twice now."

"I also heard from the eldest son of the old Zhu family in the front yard. You said that this kid came back in the morning and didn't come to give you a message. He really has no education at all. In this case, you put away the dishes first, and I Tell you slowly."

"This can be fake. It has spread all over the factory. I just went to the front yard to ask the eldest son of the Zhu family. They are all true. The eldest son is only slightly injured and nothing is wrong. He said he would come back to see him when he is free. look."

The second uncle is now full of confidence, and he is very good at teaching children. This should be called using the advanced deeds of the eldest child as a model, stimulating the desire for progress of the second and third eldest children, and maximizing the role of the eldest brother as a role model.

"Dad, you don't seem to hit your eldest brother very much, and you don't even scold him...".

The second uncle didn't know where he got the courage, so he muttered something in a low voice, which immediately pissed off the second uncle.

"Little bastard, what are you talking about? Your eldest brother is eight years older than you. When I taught him a lesson, you hadn't come out yet. What are you talking about? Besides, your brother is much more sensible than you. If I teach him a lesson, he won't. I will do it again, unlike you two, you don’t have a long memory..."

The second uncle was still yelling and scolding, and the second aunt quickly stopped him.

"Master, today is a good day, a great event, don't be angry, come and have another drink..."

The second uncle then chewed a peanut, took a sip of wine, and continued his summary...

...

The genius had just begun to darken, and almost everyone in the courtyard knew about the boss of the Liu family. I really don’t blame everyone for talking nonsense. It was actually the second uncle who drank a little wine and talked about his boss’s affairs with everyone he caught. Proud, fully inspired by a little wine.

"Second uncle, your boss has made his mark this time. He has made such a great contribution, so why should he be promoted to a cadre? They are all in the same system. In a few years, maybe he can be transferred back to the steel rolling mill to work as a cadre. Cadres, then our yard will be exposed."

The second uncle was still modest, "How can it be so easy to be a cadre? I think too much, I think too much."

"Liu Haizhong, you can be relieved. This young man is also trying his best. He is much better than the bad boy of the Xu family. Unlike him, he is a dog who can't change his mind and eats shit. He is doing some bullshit. He is better than the bad boy of the Xu family. Your boss must be a few years older."

The deaf old lady came out with a cane at some point and mentioned Xu Damao intentionally or unintentionally. The second uncle suddenly lost interest. Thinking of Xu Damao's instigation and the stupid things he had done, he felt like eating a fly and went home angrily. .

...

Xu Damao, who they were talking about, was frightened for a while. Today, he was finally sentenced. It has been fifteen years. This is already very lucky. The key is that his father took action in time.

After finding a few key witnesses, Father Xu used all his skills. The people in the village were not very knowledgeable. Father Xu even coaxed and bribed him. When he heard that Xu the projectionist would be punished with death if he didn't help, several young widows were also worried. Unable to bear it, I changed my tune at the critical moment.

Looking at his much older parents and his angry sister in the auditorium, Xu Damao knew that this should be something that his father had saved up over the years. This time, for his own sake, he probably lost it this time.

My parents have been with Lou Bancheng for so many years, and they managed to earn so much money through deception. However, there are still two small yellow croakers and dozens of dollars buried in the house. They hesitated to tell their parents last time, but now they can No chance to tell.

More than ten years ago, the land in his family was confiscated. The last time his home was ransacked, this time his property was probably also confiscated. Xu Damao only found out yesterday that he was reported by Zhu Xuefeng. Unfortunately, the news could not spread and he could not take revenge.

I could only bow deeply to my parents in the auditorium from a distance. Before I could wave, I was taken away by the bailiff.

Looking at his son being taken away, Father Xu sat down slumped and murmured to himself. "Thank God, I took action in time, and I was able to save my life. Otherwise, our old Xu family would have been cut off. How would I be able to meet my ancestors?"

"Father, mother, let's go. There's almost no one around. This time I got a better deal on those families. I hope my eldest brother can have a longer memory. Now he's ruined our whole family. We have to drink the northwest wind when we go back and wait for him for more than ten years." Come back later, I guess we are still ahead of him.”

"Yingzi, stop talking nonsense, let's go, help your father up, let's go home, we all have hands and feet, if we can starve to death, isn't it because our family is gone? If your eldest brother can survive, this is more important than anything else. good."

Father Xu stood up on his own and said, "Go home, your mother is right, money is an external thing, and people are the most important thing. If we don't make it anymore, we won't be able to make it anymore and you will still be there."

"Dad, I just want to ask, if something happens to me, will you save me like this?"

Father Xu was annoyed, "What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't expect your order to be good, go back quickly. I don't think you can keep your brother's house. We have to move all his things back."

...

"It would be great if my brother had paid for it and turned it into a private house. This house could still be kept. In more than ten years, when he comes back, he will not have anywhere to live."

Father Xu said angrily while cleaning up, "Stop talking about these invisible things. According to me, it's okay if you didn't pay the money. If you did, I guess you still have to return it this time. That would be a waste of money." "Come on, don't be nagging. Go and pack the things in the cabinet with your mother. Look carefully and don't leave anything behind."

Xu Xiaoying said angrily. "Brother, what good things can he leave behind? With his prodigal character, he only has a few clothes and these quilts and mattresses that are of some use."

"Yingzi, I know you have resentment in your stomach, blaming us for using up all your family wealth, but that's your brother. If you continue to be so arrogant, don't blame your father and I for chasing you away."

Only then did Xu Xiaoying shut up. Her mother was a cruel person and could not be offended, so she lowered her head and packed her things.

"I'll find someone to look at these pieces of furniture later and see how much they can be exchanged for. You take the package and leave first. Your mother and I will take a look at it later."

Seeing Xu Xiaoying walk out of the backyard, Father Xu whispered.

"Honey, I've been rescued now, but I have to serve fifteen years in prison. If I really come out after fifteen years, I won't be able to find a wife, and I'll have to cut off my wife."

"Then what should we do? I'm confused and don't have any ideas. If you have an idea, just tell me."

"I was thinking, we can't just wait for him to come out, we have to take the initiative to do some things, and we have to enlighten our son during the visit. Let's do this... The two discussed for a while, Aunt Xu hesitated for a moment, and still nodded in agreement, but she was satisfied My face hurt all over.

"Damn, we can't keep these treasures now. This little bastard, you're usually smart, but why are you so stupid this time? You wiped out the whole house in one fell swoop."

...

"Yanzi, that's it. You and Gao Bo will go outside for a few days. Remember not to get into trouble. You are just helping to harvest the peaches. He is familiar with this process. Just do him a favor and watch."

"Well, don't worry, senior brother. I just want to go for a few trips to the countryside. It's no problem. It's better than keeping it at home. Then I'll go find him today."

"These are the capital. You can bring it to him when the time comes. Remember, don't get into trouble."

"Uncle Zhu, I understand..."

"You, you, don't think I'm verbose, hey, I'll go back first and come back in the evening." Zhu Xuefeng had no temper at all towards Liang Yan.

She really couldn't stand Lin Na's resentful eyes. It happened that Gao Bo couldn't go out alone, and Liang Yan didn't like staying in the yard all the time. This time, she could kill three birds with one stone.

I said hello to the man in the dormitory. In the past few days, the street office has notified all the compounds to strengthen their precautions. The compounds have started to arrange personnel on duty day and night to avoid theft.

When I returned to the yard, I saw two women leaving with large bags. I just saw a donkey cart parked outside the yard with a lot of things. This was Xu Damao's mother and the others moving.

Not wanting to say hello to her, he lowered his head and entered the front yard. It seemed that Xu Damao's matter was settled, but he didn't know what the sentence was.

Logically speaking, the announcement should be made within two days, so Zhu Xuefeng didn't bother to ask. After a while, he saw Father Xu coming out again with his head lowered. He saw Zhu Xuefeng in the front yard, his eyes still a little evasive.

I understand that this old man has no idea who reported his son. After a pleasant communication with Deputy Director Chen last time, the two of them have reached a mutual understanding. It is estimated that Director Chen did not disclose the report.

Father Xu dodged Zhu Xuefeng's eyes, but he almost bumped into the aunt who was about to enter the yard. Behind him was a girl. This was Qin Jingru, who was carrying Sophora japonica on her back. The little girl following the aunt was Xiaodang.

During these days, Qin Jingru has become very familiar with the eldest mother. She has a sweet mouth and is pretty. Although she is not very clever, the eldest mother still likes this little girl, so the two families go shopping together at noon. The little girl has a sweet mouth and is quite coaxing. The eldest mother is very happy.

Looking at Father Xu who was dodging somewhat, Aunt Ma sighed.

"You have moved your family away, Damao kid, ugh."

Not long ago, Father Xu and his son were trying to trick the eldest son, but now that they have ended up like this, they felt bad when they saw the eldest mother again.

"Move, move. From now on, we won't be in the same courtyard. Alas, this man is getting old. I didn't expect that. You should be busy first."

"Auntie, this is the backyard of Xu Damao's house, right?"

"Yes, he can be considered an old man in the courtyard. Later, his son went to work in the steel rolling mill, so he gave the house to his son. It's good now. He is so old and still has to vacate the house. I guess Xu Damao should be sentenced. My son has not been raised well.”

"So, this child needs to be educated well from a young age. This Damao is smart, but he likes to be smart and do bad things since he was a child. His father doesn't say anything about him, but he happily praises him. He is smart, now he is better, alas.”

Qin Jingru nodded with understanding, as if she understood some truth.

"Auntie, I see you look good today. This old problem is getting better."

Seeing Auntie coming over, Zhu Xuefeng said hello cordially. Zhu Xuefeng didn't know much about this compound, but Auntie's kindness could still be seen.

"Xiao Feng, it's much better, much better. I have this girl chatting with me and helping me. These days, it's getting better every day."

"That's good. If you have time, you have to check it regularly, but you must pay attention."

"Well, Auntie understands. You go about your business. Jingru and I will go pack the dishes first."

The sub-district office acted very quickly. As soon as the movers left, Director Wang came over and announced that Xu Damao had been sentenced and that the house had been taken back. He locked the door and waited for the next reassignment.

Director Wang left, and there was still a lot of discussion in the courtyard. I didn't expect it to be like this. He was sentenced to fifteen years all of a sudden. Fifteen years, how many fifteen years can a person have in his life? Xu Damao, this kid, can be regarded as having trouble in his own crotch. On.

Now even the house has been taken away. Now if Xu Damao comes back, he will have to apply for housing again. It is no longer possible to come back.
