Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

First of all, Yi Zhonghai was his biggest enemy in the officialdom and also his rival at work. In the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai was the eldest uncle and he was only the second uncle, being suppressed.

At work, Yi Zhonghai always maintained a rank one level higher than him, which made him even more unhappy.

In addition, the various things that happened to the Jia Zhang family some time ago further deepened Liu Haizhong's hatred for Yi Zhonghai.

Chapter 389: You don’t know there’s a ghost in your house

After a few drinks, Liu Haizhong became dizzy.

In a daze, he thought of Yi Zhonghai who died today.

"Old Yi, you're finally dead. If you weren't dead, how could I have gotten ahead? You've been weighing on me for so many years, making it hard for me to breathe. It's good that you died. Now, in this courtyard, no one can..."

Liu Haizhong lay down, but what he didn't know was that everything he said was heard by Aunt Meng.

And because Liu Haizhong was drunk and his speech was unclear, Aunt Meng misunderstood.

What she heard was that Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were indeed having an affair, but Yi Zhonghai seemed to be the one on top.

"I was wondering why you reacted so strongly to Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang's marriage? It turns out you and Jia Zhang are rivals in love. And you're drinking today because the person you truly loved died, right?"

Aunt Meng muttered to herself, without a trace of light in her eyes.

After a moment, a burst of anger erupted from Aunt Meng's heart, "Liu Haizhong, you bastard! Since you and Yi Zhonghai's love can't be expressed in this way, then I will promote it for you!"

Aunt Meng wiped her tears and walked out of the house without even looking at Liu Haizhong. She wanted to make the love between Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai, which could not be expressed openly, public!

After Aunt Meng left, Liu Guangtian came back with a swagger.

After looking around the house and finding that there was only a drunk Liu Haizhong at home, Liu Guangtian came up with a bold idea.

He knew Liu Haizhong quite well. His alcohol tolerance was average, or even poor. He would easily lose memory after drinking too much and would not remember what happened.

Thinking of this, Liu Guangtian reached his evil hand into the pocket of Liu Haizhong's clothes to search.

Anyone who has stolen something knows that the most important thing in this job is your hands. They need to be steady, accurate and quick!

This is what Liu Guangtian did at this moment. He quickly stretched out two fingers and inserted them into the pocket of Liu Haizhong's shirt, and took out two Mao banknotes from it.

"I have basically mastered the skills of using these two fingers." Liu Guangtian said happily.

Ever since Liu Guangtian had the idea of ​​learning the skills of a thief, he had been intent on finding an expert in this field. After several twists and turns in the black market, he actually met a thief who claimed to be the descendant of the Swallow Sect - Li Si!

After Liu Guangtian's pestering for several days, Li Si was moved by his sincerity and agreed to teach him stealing techniques for a week.

During this week, Liu Guangtian worked day and night, studying and practicing diligently. His diligence even impressed Li Si.

I couldn't help but sigh, "With this kind of perseverance, there's nothing this kid can't succeed in. Why would he be so desperate as to become a thief?"

But Li Si didn't say much, after all, he had already received the money.

After seven days, Liu Guangtian had learned a lot. According to Li Si, as long as Liu Guangtian didn't commit crimes in places with few people, there would be no big problem.

Perhaps because he admired Liu Guangtian's talent, when they parted, Li Si gave Liu Guangtian a book on how to pick locks.

This touched Liu Guangtian deeply, and he vowed to become a figure like his master Yan Zi Li San!

After several searches, Liu Guangtian took more than one yuan from Liu Haizhong and put it all in his pocket without keeping a single cent.

Then Liu Guangtian looked at Liu Haizhong with a cold look. To be honest, he really wanted to take away all the money in the family right now.

But he was also worried about alerting the enemy, after all, his target was the Jiang family and Sha Zhu's family.

Originally it was only the Jiang family, but who could blame them for such a big incident in the yard during the New Year?

Sha Zhu's family received a large sum of compensation, and people in the yard rumored that He Daqing had brought back a lot of money this time, which made Liu Guangtian tempted.

"But before that, I still need to buy two locks to practice with."

Although he had the lock-picking secret book in his hand, looking at the yellowed book, Liu Guangtian knew that the techniques in it might not be able to break the Jiang family's brand new lock. He could only buy one and crack it slowly.

As for the lock of Sha Zhu's house, it is the same as theirs, so he can crack it.

"Just wait, when I master the secrets of lock picking, I can go to anyone's house and take their money. I can even go to a certain family's house and take their wife if I like her, hehehe."

After the family split up, Liu Guangtian had two hundred yuan in his hands. Being young and energetic, he naturally would not fail to experience the happiness of being an adult.

When Liu Guangtian thought about his life in the past few days, a lewd smile appeared on his face.

……

On the other hand, because of Aunt Meng's personal experience, she hinted to everyone in the yard that Liu Haizhong was not good to her and their married life was not harmonious. She even said a few words, intentionally or unintentionally, that Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai often took a bath together.

This immediately reminded everyone of the rumors that Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai were having an affair.

In addition, since these words came from Aunt Meng, their credibility was further enhanced.

In an instant, everyone looked at Aunt Meng with a bit of pity in their eyes.

After all, no one can bear the sudden discovery that the husband with whom you have lived for decades has actually been hiding another person in his heart, and that person is a man.

People nowadays are still very traditional. It is rare that they will see stars in their eyes and ship two men together!

Now that this situation has occurred, everyone will just feel disgusted!

Even men of the same age who had a good relationship with Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai were met with suspicious looks from their wives when they returned home.

This forced them to work hard to prove their sexual orientation, while also deepening their resentment towards Liu Haizhong.

If you two want to be together, just do it, but why involve us in this trivial matter?

In order to relieve the pent-up anger in their hearts, several people who worked in the steel rolling mill spread the news that Liu Haizhong liked men in the factory.

For a while, a "chrysanthemum defense war" and a "brotherly investigation operation" were launched among the male workers in the steel rolling mill.

You know what, among thousands of workers, we actually found a few with abnormal sexual orientations.

When the friends of these people learned about this, their faces immediately turned black. They felt a chill when they thought about having eaten, drank, bathed and chatted with these people!

"Liu Haizhong, come here!"

Liu Hai, who was swinging a sledgehammer in the workshop, heard the workshop director's call, immediately put down the hammer, ran over, and said flatteringly.

"Director Qian, what's going on?"

Director Qian unconsciously put his hands behind his back and said, "Director Yang wants to see you. I think there's something going on. Please come back quickly."

After saying that, Director Qian ran away.

Only the bangs were left with a dull look.

"Director Yang wants to see me? Is he planning to promote me? Has a leader finally noticed the official aura in my bangs?"

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong couldn't help but have some wild thoughts.

Chapter 390: Furious Liu Haizhong

At the door of Yang Aiguo's office, Liu Haizhong took a deep breath, calmed himself down, straightened his clothes, and fixed his hairstyle.

Deduction

"Come in."

Liu Haizhong pushed open the door and bent down when he saw Director Yang with a flattering smile on his face.

"Hello, Director Yang. I'm Liu Haizhong from the forging workshop, reporting to you."

When Yang Aiguo heard the three words "Liu Haizhong", his writing hand couldn't help but tremble.

Slowly raising his head and looking at the fat man standing in front of him, after sizing him up and down, Yang Aiguo did not let Liu Haizhong sit down.

Instead, he asked, "Are you Liu Haizhong?"

Liu Haizhong's expression instantly turned serious, and he said solemnly, "Director, I'm Liu Haizhong. You've come to me with an important mission, right? Don't worry, I, Liu Haizhong, will definitely complete it!"

Director Yang was stunned for a moment after hearing these powerful words, but he immediately understood that Liu Haizhong had misunderstood something.

But he also said, "Comrade Liu Haizhong, I do have a task for you to do."

"Please give your orders, leader!"

Director Yang nodded and asked, "Are you familiar with Yi Zhonghai?"

Liu Haizhong's pupils shrank, and his mind began to wander, "What's the point of asking Yi Zhonghai? Is his business not over yet? Is there some hidden secret?"

Could it be that Yi Zhonghai is also a spy? Has someone come to see him these past two days? Is the factory director asking this because he wants me to infiltrate the enemy by using the identity of Yi Zhonghai's friend?"

In an instant, Liu Haizhong thought of countless possibilities, which caused his already small brain to crash.

Three seconds later, Liu Haizhong made a decision that he would regret for the rest of his life.

"Director Yang, Yi Zhonghai and I are indeed very familiar with each other. We used to be very good friends with a deep affection, and we often ate and drank together."

hiss~

Director Yang unconsciously moved his body, leaned back in his chair, and looked at Liu Haizhong with a very strange look.

Liu Haizhong first talked about his relationship with Yi Zhonghai, then sighed and changed the subject, "It's just that I didn't expect Yi Zhonghai to do such a shameless thing. Alas, I should have advised him."

As he spoke, he showed a hint of sadness.

This made Director Yang even more restless. He called Liu Haizhong over because the factory had been in turmoil recently due to rumors about Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai.

Now that he saw Liu Haizhong like this, he wondered if he didn't know about this? Or was it that those things were true, so Liu Haizhong didn't resist?

The more I think about it, the scarier it gets.

Seeing Director Yang looking at him without saying anything, Liu Haizhong took the initiative to ask, "Director, didn't you say you had a mission for me? Give me the order!"

Yang Aiguo took two deep breaths, and Liu Haizhong became even more excited. "It's obvious that an important task has been assigned to me. If I succeed, won't I, Liu Haizhong, become a leader directly?"

Liu Haizhong has already started imagining what it would be like to be a leader. By then, Xu Damao would be the one showing him movies, Sha Zhu would be the one cooking for him, and everyone else in the yard would be his subordinates. Hehehe.

Director Yang had no idea what was going on in Liu Haizhong's mind. He only saw him put on a serious expression and shouted loudly:

"Comrade Liu Haizhong! Do you know that the factory is in turmoil right now because of your and Yi Zhonghai's improper relationship? Everyone is worried! It's seriously affecting the atmosphere in our factory!"

Each of these words was like someone hitting Liu Haizhong's head with a forging hammer, hammering down one after another, leaving him dazed!

This isn't right! How could this be?

"Director Yang, there is a misunderstanding here. Yi Zhonghai and I are not familiar with each other. We even have a grudge against each other." Liu Haizhong hurriedly explained.

"Yi Zhonghai is a beast, a scum, a despicable and shameless scoundrel. I have nothing to do with him!"

"Didn't you just say that you were a close friend of Yi Zhonghai?"

"Director, I was just talking nonsense. You can't believe it." Liu Haizhong said anxiously.

Director Yang didn't believe Liu Haizhong at all. Because of Yi Zhonghai's crimes, ordinary people would have been too busy to distance themselves from him, so how could they say that they had a good relationship with him?

I'm afraid only someone like Liu Haizhong, who has a relationship with Yi Zhonghai that goes beyond friendship, would insist on saying that he has a good relationship with Yi Zhonghai.

Director Yang snorted coldly, "Nonsense? So you were just lying to me?"

"No, I didn't lie to you, Director. That's not right. I was just talking nonsense. It's not true, I, I, I..."

Liu Haizhong became even more anxious, his whole face turned red like a monkey's butt, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, as if he had just taken a hot bath.

He is in a dilemma now, neither admitting it nor denying it.

Director Yang didn't care what Liu Haizhong did and told him directly that his affairs were a hot topic in the factory. If he couldn't solve it, he should go home and rest.

Anyway, the factory doesn’t have many orders now, and the loss of Liu Haizhong will not affect the overall situation.

But Liu Haizhong was different. When he heard that Director Yang wanted him to go home and rest, he immediately thought of the stories in operas and stories about being exiled to Ningguta and sent to the border.

But when he tried to grab Yang Aiguo's sleeve to explain, the latter didn't give him the slightest chance and shouted in a slightly terrified voice, "If you don't get out, I'll call the security department!"

Liu Haizhong then left. As he walked out of the office, he couldn't help cursing in his heart, "This Yi Zhonghai is dead and still causing trouble for me! And the rumors about him and me? What kind of rumors could there be between him and me! No, I have to go back and get to the bottom of this!"

In the forging workshop, Jiang Fan was doing routine inspections. He felt a headache when he heard the workers around him talking about the unknown little secrets between Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai.

How did things develop in this direction? Although it suited his mentality of having fun, he hadn't done anything yet. He didn't feel involved at all.

After the machine inspection was completed, Jiang Fan was about to go to the next workshop when Liu Haizhong came back in a hurry.

It would have been fine if he just came back, but he also stood at the door and shouted, "Which bastard spread rumors that I had an improper relationship with Yi Zhonghai! Stand up!"

This roar silenced the noisy forging workshop for a moment, leaving only the deafening roar of the machines.
