Courtyard House: Is Xu Damao a childless man? Let me help.

Just then, when Xiao Li saw Grandpa Yi, he remembered what happened that day, so he came up and 'thanked' him.

But Xiao Li's words of thanks had no effect. Uncle Yi immediately felt angry stares from behind. Jia Zhangshi, who had already retreated to her room under the contemptuous gazes of everyone, was now staring at Uncle Yi with murderous intent.

The people in the courtyard now had a clearer understanding of how terrifying a guy like Uncle Yi, who resorted to underhanded tricks, could be.

As for Ye Jianchuan, he hadn't expected such an 'unexpected gain' today.

For Ye Jianchuan, the main reason for sending Liu Guangtian on this trip was to make Jia Zhangshi suffer a setback, and to prevent Sha Zhu from offending anyone again because of the affairs in the courtyard.

However, it now seems that this matter has successfully killed two birds with one stone, not only achieving Ye Jianchuan's original goal, but also further damaging Uncle Yi.

Not to mention that Uncle Yi's reputation in the courtyard will be damaged because of this incident.

Because of this incident, Jia Zhangshi's 'hatred' for Master Yi, which had gradually subsided after receiving the money, is now about to be reignited, which is already very crucial.

After all, according to Ye Jianchuan's plan, Uncle Yi and Xu Damao were teammates, while Jia Zhangshi and Uncle Er were teammates, and they were originally meant to be on opposite sides.

Previously, it might have been difficult to completely break ties with Master Yi because Jia Zhangshi only cared about money. But now it seems that I don't need to think about it anymore. Jia Zhangshi is definitely going to take the initiative to cause trouble for Master Yi.

After seeing Director Wang off, the entire courtyard meeting ended, and everyone in the courtyard quickly dispersed. However, after this farce, the people in the courtyard would probably have to adjust their evaluation of Uncle Yi and Jia Zhangshi down another level.

No... Actually, it doesn't have much impact on Jia Zhangshi anymore, because she's practically public enemy number one in the courtyard. Nobody likes her, so it doesn't seem to make much difference to her if her reputation continues to decline.

But Uncle Yi was different. After this incident, Uncle Yi originally wanted to be a bystander.

After all, apart from Jia Zhangshi herself, only Uncle Yi in the entire courtyard knew why Jia Zhangshi had lost her job.

Although Aunt Yi and Bang Geng knew that Jia Zhangshi had cut corners and cheated, they didn't know that she had been caught red-handed!

So when Jia Zhangshi approached Uncle Er and Sha Zhu, wanting them to help her 'seek justice' from the neighborhood committee, Uncle Yi already knew that Uncle Er and Sha Zhu would definitely not have a good outcome after this trip.

Especially since both Sha Zhu and Uncle Er are rather clumsy with words, and Sha Zhu is also easily impulsive, if they don't explain things clearly and get into a fight, that would be the best thing for Uncle Yi.

Unfortunately, none of the things that Grandpa Yi had hoped for came to pass, because he hadn't expected Ye Jianchuan to be so 'helpful,' directly hoping to resolve the matter for Jia Zhangshi today.

What he didn't expect was that Director Wang not only came himself, but also brought one of the garbage station's employees with him.

And the garbage station employee that Director Wang brought was the same person he had spoken to when he went to be a "helpful citizen" that day.

Of course, what he least expected was that, even though the matter was already over, Ye Jianchuan stopped Director Wang and mentioned to him that he had been dismissed.

This prompted Director Wang to turn to look at him and ask him a question. It was this action that made Xiao Li, who had come with Director Wang, notice him.

And this Xiao Li, who had only met me once, recognized me at a glance!

With so many unexpected things happening one after another, what was the result? The result, of course, was that Uncle Yi once again felt the contemptuous looks directed at him by everyone.

Although Uncle Yi's actions seem to be without fault, it depends on one's perspective. If you had said it during a general meeting of the entire hospital, no one would have blamed you, except for Madam Jia Zhangshi, who would have held a grudge against you.

240 But this matter ultimately came from a third party, and your action seemed particularly like 'tattling'.

In addition, because of this incident, everyone wasted a lot of time, so wouldn't your image instantly turn into that of a 'treacherous villain'?

Aside from that, what worries Uncle Yi the most is Jia Zhangshi's revenge. After all, his family had offended Jia Zhangshi last time, and that old hag came to his house and put some laxative in the pot.

That time, Aunt Yi was so exhausted that she was hospitalized. In fact, I didn't offend Jia Zhangshi that much that time. Compared to that, I offended her much more severely this time.

Since the offense has become even more serious, will Jia Zhangshi's revenge be even more severe? Could it be that instead of laxatives, she'll use poison instead?

Because of this, Uncle Yi will probably be living in fear for a while to come.

In the group consisting of Jia Zhangshi and Second Uncle, Jia Zhangshi launched the first attack. In the group consisting of First Uncle and Xu Damao, Xu Damao launched the first attack, but Xu Damao's target was not Second Uncle, but Ye Jianchuan!

Chapter 226 I was ambushed on my way home from get off work, so I decided to defend myself!

Just two days after that incident, Ye Jianchuan was ambushed on his way home from get off work.

This left Ye Jianchuan somewhat bewildered. Had he offended anyone recently? He couldn't recall. Could it be thugs hired by the people in the compound? Were they hired by Xu Damao?

In fact, Ye Jianchuan's thinking was not wrong at all; these people were indeed 'lured' here by Xu Damao.

However, Xu Damao didn't do this himself. Instead, he spent a little money to spread rumors that Yu Haitang had gotten together with a workshop director at the food factory.

This rumor initially spread only on a small scale, but because Xu Damao was stirring things up behind the scenes, it didn't take much effort to reach Yang Weimin's ears.

Hearing that his 'goddess' had been linked to another man, how could Yang Weimin stand it? He immediately led his men to confront Ye Jianchuan.

After being blocked by several people, Ye Jianchuan had no choice but to get off his bicycle. Looking at these guys with ill intentions, Ye Jianchuan was puzzled, but still spoke up.

"What's up? You guys need something?"

"That's right, kid, you're the one we've been looking for! We've been waiting for you for almost half a day."

Ye Jianchuan frowned. "Who sent you? Xu Damao? I advise you to think carefully before you act. Don't ruin your lives for a little money!"

After hearing Ye Jianchuan's words, the person on the other end was also completely bewildered. What Xu Damao? The person who summoned us wasn't Xu Damao, was he? Who is this Xu Damao?

Furthermore... although we did follow Yang Weimin for the money, we didn't get paid for this job, did we?

Fortunately, at this moment, Yang Weimin stepped forward and shouted, "Kid! If you have someone to blame, blame yourself for touching my woman! Guys! Beat her up!"

After shouting "Beat him!", the people around him rushed towards Ye Jianchuan.

Ye Jianchuan shook his head, then, without any hesitation, stepped forward and swept his leg, instantly knocking down the guy who was charging at the front.

Then he sidestepped a person who lunged at him from behind and caught a foot that was kicked from the side.

Grabbing the foot, Ye Jianchuan took two steps back, and then with a forceful movement, the guy who wanted to kick Ye Jianchuan was directly split in two by Ye Jianchuan, and his groin was instantly ruptured.

But Ye Jianchuan's actions weren't over yet. After making him do a split, Ye Jianchuan grabbed his leg and pressed it down. Now, his entire leg was dislocated, and the guy lay on the ground howling in pain, completely incapacitated.

Seeing that Ye Jianchuan was actually using such ruthless methods, the guys on the other side were a little scared.

However, they had four people on their side, and the one who had been kicked down by Ye Jianchuan's sweeping leg was able to get up.

There were five of them in total. They felt they could still hold their own against Ye Jianchuan, so after hesitating for a moment, they gritted their teeth and continued to charge towards him.

Unfortunately, their fighting ability was basically at the level of street thugs; they lacked any sense of strategy or method in terms of teamwork and techniques.

Although Ye Jianchuan had never systematically studied martial arts techniques, he still practiced the Five Animal Frolics regularly.

In addition, practicing bodybuilding exercises also allows Ye Jianchuan to control his body more flexibly, enabling him to perform the movements he wants more easily and quickly.

So even though the remaining five people were very 'brave', they still couldn't gain any advantage over Ye Jianchuan.

In the end, Ye Jianchuan didn't even get much dust on him, and there were already six people lying on the ground.

Ye Jianchuan turned and glanced at Yang Weimin, who was so frightened that he couldn't even run away, and walked over.

"You... what are you going to do? I... my second uncle is the director of the steel rolling mill! If you dare to touch me, you'll regret it when I send the steel rolling mill's security guards to teach you a lesson!"

Hearing Yang Weimin's taunts, Ye Jianchuan remained unfazed and instead said, "You just said... I touched your woman? Who's your woman?"

"Remember this: He Yushui is my woman! If you don't get what you want from me and dare to harass her, you'll be sorry!"

After Ye Jianchuan said this, Yang Weimin, who was standing next to him, was dumbfounded. He Yushui? Wasn't that his high school classmate? She seemed to have a good relationship with Yu Haitang, but what did this have to do with He Yushui?

Seeing the expression on Yang Weimin's face, Ye Jianchuan instantly understood and continued, "What? You're not only telling me now that you've mistaken me for someone else, are you?"

Yang Weimin was also speechless. Faced with Ye Jianchuan's questioning, he could only tentatively ask, "You...you're not called Ye Jianchuan, are you?"

Ye Jianchuan nodded, then twisted his hand. "Since you know my name is Ye Jianchuan, that means you haven't mistaken me for someone else, right? Then I can rest assured!"

You stopped me halfway and tried to harm my personal safety. Everything I'm doing now is in self-defense!

To be honest, I've always been hesitant to go out and cause trouble because I'm afraid I might go too far. But now that it's self-defense, I'm going to defend myself properly and thoroughly!

As he spoke, Ye Jianchuan took two more steps closer to Yang Weimin. This time, Yang Weimin couldn't hold back any longer and quickly spoke up.

"Brother Ye!! Brother Ye!! There might be some misunderstanding here. You just mentioned He Yushui, right? I know He Yushui, but the woman I just mentioned is not He Yushui!"

"Brother, there must be some misunderstanding here! Don't hit me, don't hit me!"

Ye Jianchuan certainly didn't really want to 'defend himself to his heart' (or was he?), it was just a joke he made, and of course, it was also to intimidate the guy in front of him.

Seeing how cowardly this guy was now, Ye Jianchuan naturally couldn't continue to make a move. So he patted him on the shoulder and spoke again.

"Alright, since you say it's a misunderstanding, then tell me what kind of misunderstanding it is?"

Yang Weimin was startled when Ye Jianchuan patted him on the shoulder, and then he stammered, "I... I'm He Yushui's high school classmate, but we're just classmates."

The reason I came to you this time is because I heard someone say that you are pursuing Yu Haitang. Yu Haitang is clearly dating me, and someone else is pursuing her. Do you think I wouldn't be angry when I heard this?

So I... But you just mentioned that your woman is He Yushui, so I knew this time it must be a misunderstanding.

Chapter 227 It's all a misunderstanding

Upon hearing Yang Weimin's words, Ye Jianchuan instantly understood, and then asked, "Oh... I see. Hey, by the way, isn't your name Yang Weimin?"

After all, in the original drama, Yu Haitang had a 'former boyfriend' named Yang Weimin, and he also mentioned earlier that he was the nephew of the steel mill director, which means that his surname is Yang.

Seeing Yang Weimin nod, Ye Jianchuan spoke again, "Alright, there's no need to be so afraid. I'm a reasonable person."

I do know Yu Haitang, because her sister and I live in the same courtyard house, but we don't have a very close relationship.

I helped her with a small favor before, but that was only because she's He Yushui's good friend. As for anything else, I won't take any of it. You know what I mean?

Yang Weimin nodded again, while Ye Jianchuan continued, "Alright, now that everything's explained, I'll forgive you this time. You can go now!"

As Ye Jianchuan spoke, he turned to leave, but two more people suddenly appeared and blocked his way.

"You can't leave! You've injured so many people in the street, and you think you can just walk away? I'll be the first to stop you!"

Well, Ye Jianchuan has run into another 'helpful citizen' or 'heroic act' again. But before Ye Jianchuan could explain to them, he heard messy footsteps behind him.

Then several government officials rushed over and saw six people lying on the ground. They immediately turned their attention to Ye Jianchuan and adopted a posture of being on high alert.

Ye Jianchuan was speechless, but he still cooperated with the police officers by raising his hands and saying, "Officer, this was a misunderstanding, and we have already explained it."

Upon seeing Ye Jianchuan's face, one of the government officials paused for a moment, then stepped forward and asked, "Comrade Ye Jianchuan?"

Ye Jianchuan nodded, then looked closely and realized that this person was actually one of the police officers involved in the arrest operation during the last clothing factory theft case.

I've met them once before, so we know each other. Since we know each other, the rest is easy to resolve.

"Officer Li, this is all a misunderstanding. Even though they're all lying on the ground, I was just defending myself."

Furthermore... I've already spoken with them about it afterward, and the reason they came to cause me trouble was due to a misunderstanding.

Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, and I've forgiven them, so you see...
