Courtyard House: My System - Artificial Human

A few minutes later, Master Niu called a halt to the crowd and gave He Daqing a warning.

"He Daqing, you're at least a man, you know how to take it. I'll let you off the hook today. But like I said, if you're not happy, let's meet again at the Qianmen Tavern!"

He Daqing was so dizzy from the beating that he had no energy to reply.

He Yuzhu looked up fiercely, spat out a mouthful of blood, and agreed.

"Pah! Damn it! Just you wait, we'll be there!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than he was kicked in the stomach, screaming in pain.

He Daqing's expression changed, and he quickly scolded and stopped them, then made a promise to the group at the front gate.

"Don't talk nonsense, Pillar! The mistake was mine today, I admit it, and I won't hold a grudge against anyone."

"Hehe..." Master Niu chuckled dismissively, not caring about the attitude of the He family father and son.

Having been in the underworld for so many years, he had seen the most hotheads, and the most dead hotheads were also hotheads.

The others laughed, saying they wouldn't have come if they were afraid of retaliation.

Seeing this, Lin Weidong, another victim, offered cigarettes to the crowd as a token of his gratitude.

"Thank you all for clearing my name. I had no idea about this, and I never imagined that people in our compound hated me so much. They almost harmed others in their revenge against me. I'm so sorry!"

Uncle Niu glanced at the Zhonghua cigarettes in his hand and offered words of comfort.

"Hey! There's no need for you to apologize. Who would have thought those two were up to no good? It's not your fault. But Comrade Lin, you should be more careful in the future. I don't think Yi Zhonghai and that silly kid are kind-hearted people."

Lin Weidong was a true victim in this matter.

What everyone was thinking was that this young cadre had almost been stigmatized for ruining someone else's marriage.

Ironically, he was the last to find out, which is quite tragic and pitiful.

If it weren't for the people at the front gate discovering something amiss, who knows what kind of rumors would have spread? Lin Weidong's future would probably have been halved.

The residents of the courtyard house expressed their understanding.

Someone offered words of comfort, having successfully received a Chinese cigarette, and then they opened up completely, one after another expressing their support and disdain for Yi Zhonghai and his companion.

Lin Weidong just sighed and handed out cigarettes. After finishing the pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, he opened another pack of Daqianmen cigarettes and continued to hand them out.

No one blamed him; the only one to blame was himself for not being sharp enough.

After taking their revenge, the group at the front gate left in a grand procession. In the courtyard, several people took He Daqing and his son to the hospital.

He Daqing was richer than Yi Zhonghai. Not only did he give each of them one dollar, but he also asked his neighbors to help take care of He Yushui. The family that agreed received another dollar.

Among this group, his reputation is much better than Yi Zhonghai's.

After seeing the guests off, the group talked about the farce that had just happened and recalled He Daqing's previous attitude, feeling that he was extremely unlucky.

He was led astray by Yi Zhonghai into doing something inhuman, and then his disobedient son caused him to get a severe beating...

……

In the courtyard house.

Xu Damao came home from school, but hadn't had a chance to share his joy at the upcoming school holiday with his family.

Upon hearing the news that Sha Zhu had been severely beaten, he became so excited that he became incoherent.

"Really, Dad? Oh my god! Haha, wasn't he always so arrogant? Oh my god! Well done!"

"Alright, hurry up and eat! What's with all the excitement?" Xu's mother patted the back of his head.

"I'm not eating anymore, Dad, Mom, I'm going out for a bit!"

"What are you doing? Eat first, then you can play."

"Hehe! Mom, I'm going to the hospital to see Sha Zhu. Just hearing about this makes me full; I don't need to eat at all."

Xu Damao turned and walked out, and Xu Fugui, unusually, did not stop him, and even gave him instructions.

"Just watch the show and don't get into a conflict with the He family. Also, listen carefully to what they're saying and tell me when you get back."

Xu Fugui, ignoring his wife's disapproving looks, supported Xu Damao's decision.

Today's events have truly shown him an opportunity.

That idiot He Daqing actually went around gossiping about Lin Weidong! He must have lost his mind! Has he forgotten who he was having dinner with?

Since you're the one who offended Lin Weidong, don't blame me for reporting you!

……

in the hospital.

After the three wounded soldiers were examined, Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief, but He Daqing was both angry and resentful.

Yi Zhonghai suffered multiple abrasions and bruises all over his body, but the most serious injury was to his ribs. After examining them, the doctor said they might be cracked but probably not broken.

He Yuzhu was different; his wrist was swollen so badly that people could tell it was broken after just one glance.

He Daqing hated everyone at this moment! He hated the people at the front gate for their ruthlessness, hated Yi Zhonghai for getting him involved, hated Sha Zhu for disobeying orders...

A cook makes a living with his skills; I wonder if he can be fully healed from this injury.

He didn't even care about himself and hurriedly urged the doctor to treat He Yuzhu.

Faced with his father's fiery gaze, He Yuzhu lowered his head and dared not meet his eyes.

The initial excitement subsided, leaving only deep regret and lingering fear. He obediently followed the doctor's advice.

It was under these circumstances that Xu Damao found the ward. He looked around with a grin, and while the doctor was cleaning He Daqing's wound, he moved closer to Sha Zhu.

"Hey! Isn't this Sha Zhu, the so-called 'Courtyard War God'? How did he get beaten up like this? Looks all wilted?"

"Get out! Get out!" He Yuzhu was so annoyed that he couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to him.

Xu Damao would not let this opportunity pass, and he suffered huge losses as soon as he tried to take advantage of it.

"Hey, you silly Zhu! You always brag about how good you are at wrestling, huh? Turns out you were only good at me! You got wrecked by the outsiders? Look at you, you must have gotten a good beating!"

"Hey? I heard you were yelling about dismembering someone's legs? Go ahead! Why are you lying here instead of going? Giving up like a coward?"

……

"Just you wait, Xu Damao! I'll show you what a real man is like!"

He Yuzhu's face turned bright red, and he was filled with hatred.

Beside the hospital bed, Yi Zhonghai tried several times to reprimand Xu Damao, but seeing that He Daqing did not react, he gave up.

He Daqing wasn't unaware of what was happening, but he thought to himself that the insults were just right!

For some reason, his son has a much stronger temper than most people at such a young age, and he always talks about physically punishing others.

Having watched a few wrestling matches under the overpass, does he really think he's a martial arts master?

However, while they were happy to be scolded, the doctors and nurses in the hospital had no interest in listening.

Xu Damao raised his voice a little in his excitement and was immediately scolded by the nurse next to He Daqing.

"If you have a conflict, go outside and practice it! Still not behaving yourself at the hospital? If you keep making a fuss, we'll call security!"

"Yes, yes! Please calm down, nurse."

Xu Damao treated everyone except Sha Zhu with two different attitudes, and he quickly put on a smiling face.

But his smirking demeanor only made the nurses more disgusted.

"Who's your sister? What are you yelling about? Get out of here! And you, sir, go home after you're bandaged up, don't take up a bed."

Yi Zhonghai, having suffered an undeserved misfortune, hurriedly used the new words he had just learned to decline.

"No, doctor! Let me get some more treatment. I'm afraid I might get an infection if I don't treat it properly when I get home!"
