The courtyard house, without the script of Sha Zhu.

Liu Haizhong, who was kicked away, felt as if his ribs were broken, but he looked at his three sons with a hint of resentment and couldn't help but shout loudly.

"You guys just watched me get kicked, huh?"

Liu Guangqi silently turned his gaze to the other side. He was just a student, which could be explained by his lack of martial arts skills.

As for Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu?

Don't be ridiculous. Right at home, their dad beats them a little every day and a big beating every three days.

In their hearts, some even doubted whether they were adopted. Seeing Liu Guangzhong being beaten only brought them a sense of exhilaration; even if they could win, they wouldn't go up to him.

Moreover, Cao Wei is currently displaying an unparalleled ferocity that has reached this level.

This infuriated Liu Guangzhong.

Meanwhile, Yan Fugui, his mouth full of the smell of blood, looked at his two sons with a disappointed and disapproving gaze.

Then, she looked at her shattered glasses with a pained expression.

The moment Cao Wei finished speaking, everyone's expression changed slightly.

Most of the beastly neighbors also worked in the steel rolling mill, because, how should I put it? Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong's identities speak for themselves.

Although there is no grading system at present, it is still considered an intermediate-level worker.

It's not worth offending someone for a dollar.

But three yuan is a different story. Many unemployed people go to do odd jobs, which is what they can earn in a week.

That's almost four days' wages!

As a result, many of the beastly neighbors' expressions changed slightly, and they were about to run out of the courtyard when a hoarse yet pleasant voice suddenly rang out.

As the sound of someone leaning on a cane rang out, it was none other than the old matriarch of the courtyard house—the deaf old lady.

The person next to her was Li Mei.

Seeing her husband get the short end of the stick, she ran to the backyard and brought out the old woman.

The deaf old woman looked at her caregiver, Yi Zhonghai, who had been beaten and collapsed to the ground.

My heart aches terribly, after all, I've been taking care of this elderly person for so long.

Then, when he looked at Cao Wei again, his eyes were full of displeasure, and his tone gave people a feeling that was not to be resisted.

"Young man, you've really gone all out. Alright, give me, this deaf old lady, some face, and let's just let this go today. You've vented your anger."

No sooner had the words been spoken than a sudden voice rang out again, before Chao Wei could even open her mouth.

"No!"

After Jia Zhangshi, her face bruised and swollen, spoke up in protest, she was somewhat afraid of Cao Wei's strength, but she still shouted with a face full of meanness and resentment.

"That little beast! He beat us, a widow and her children, to this state, and then he thinks he can just let it go with a single sentence after stealing our son's house? No way!"

As soon as she finished speaking, most of the beastly neighbors looked at Jia Zhangshi as if she were an idiot.

They've already made their threats so clearly, and you still dare to threaten them back? You must be quite something.

Similarly, this infuriated Old Madam Long. She took her cane and was about to hit Jia Zhangshi when she couldn't help but curse.

"It's all your fault, otherwise my Xiao Yi wouldn't have been beaten."

After all, the deaf old lady had heard Li Mei's explanation and knew the reason very well. Today, Yi Zhonghai was beaten entirely because he stood up for the Jia family and fought for the He family's house.

As Jia Zhangshi dodged to the side, she couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"Anyway, my son and I couldn't have been beaten for no reason, especially since he beat up so many other people."

Cao Wei, who had arrived at this point, couldn't help but nod, looking at the deaf old lady with a mocking expression.

"See? She thinks the same way I do."

At that moment, the deaf old woman looked at Jia Zhangshi with icy eyes, as if she wanted to kill her. When she spoke again, her tone was undisguisedly threatening.

"Zhang Xiaohua, if you keep doing this, your Jia Dongxu should go find a master himself."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jia Zhangshi immediately shut up.

Her resentment just now stemmed more from the belief that Cao Wei had beaten so many people today, and no matter what the fault was, it couldn't possibly lie with them, but one thing was very clear.

Yi Zhonghai is the best master Jia Dongxu could find, without exception. After all, most disciples in this era are respectful to their masters, but they can benefit from Yi Zhonghai in return, just because he is a childless man.

Without this master, how much benefit would the Jia family lose?

Even so, Madam Jia couldn't help but mutter under her breath.

"You beat up so many people and don't want to pay a single penny for medical expenses? That's outrageous, Lao Jia..."

Of course, this was all said in a low voice.

After that, the deaf old lady took a deep breath, looked at Cao Wei, and said in a deep voice.

"Alright, that's settled then. After all, you'll be living in this courtyard for a while, and offending too many people isn't a good thing, right?"

The deaf old woman's words contained a hidden threat.

Everyone could hear it, and even the few people who walked to the door couldn't help but sigh.

After all, the reason why the deaf old lady could make most people in the courtyard not dare to offend her even before the so-called martyr rumors were publicized was not because of the so-called respect for the elderly and love for the young, but because of her mysterious background.

Just when everyone thought Cao Wei would behave himself and the matter would end there.

Cao Wei, however, merely looked at the deaf old woman with the same disdainful gaze one might give someone mentally challenged, and sneered.

"Where did this cripple come from? Daring to put on airs in front of me. Even if the Heavenly King himself came, he couldn't be on my side, let alone you?"

"What I said still holds true. If you want to make this money, hurry up."

The deaf old lady was stunned for a moment as soon as she finished speaking.

To be precise, since moving into this courtyard, no one has ever dared to disrespect him in public like this, not only because of her status as an elderly woman, but also because of his mysterious background.

So she simply stopped trying to hide it and stared straight at Cao Wei, unable to resist making a blatant threat.

"Are you sure you want to offend so many people like this?"

This time, Cao Wei merely glanced at him coldly, not even bothering to speak.

The deaf old lady couldn't help but take a deep breath, winking at Li Mei beside her as she helped herself back to the backyard, and said coldly.

"Getting old, some people don't take it seriously anymore."

The kind-hearted neighbors were also dumbfounded, because this was the first time in their memory that the deaf old lady had been publicly humiliated.

Soon, upon seeing Old Madam Long's words, Cao Wei, disregarding his determination to offend her, rushed out as well, since everyone wanted to earn that 30,000 yuan.

After finally managing to stand up, Yi Zhonghai's face turned completely pale upon witnessing this scene.

He knew that things were about to get really bad.

Soon, as the military control commissioners arrived, Cao Wei, standing confidently and imposingly before these beasts, was seen.

In the blink of an eye, the transformation was complete.

This is how someone clings to the coattails of the military control commission, unable to hold back their tears and complaints.

"Sir, there are bandits and emperors in this courtyard who want to seize my house. Finally, you have come to the rescue."
