Zhutian: Starting from being forced to bind

Chen Xi is good at carpentry and bricklaying, and he plans to tidy up his house a little bit, just a simple one. He doesn't want to be labeled as a petty bourgeois in this era.

Forget about the bathroom as there is no sewer in the house. There are only two rooms in total, the outside is the living room and the inside is the bedroom. There is not even a place to take a shower.

"I plan to build a stove in the outer room. It's inconvenient to always use a coal stove."

"Do you want to connect a kang?"

"No, it's too much trouble. We are not afraid of the cold."

"Yeah, let's make a dressing table."

“This is simple, but can you use it?”

"You have to use it to style your hair. I really don't like the hairstyles of this era."

"Just bear with it, everyone has pigtails or a shaved head."

"That was an unmarried girl. I'm a married woman now. I can change it a little bit, right?"

"Then let your hair grow a little longer and tie it into a bun. It will also look good if you put it up in a bun."

"Listen to you."

"Don't practice tonight, just get some sleep."

"Hmm~"

"Three-Point Return to Origin" can be practiced in any world. Different worlds have different restrictions. For example, in conventional worlds, Chen Xi still cannot use extraordinary abilities, but the existence of metaphysics is reasonable. Metaphysics, which originally could only rely on mental power to produce effects, can now use Yuanli, and the effect is stronger than single mental power. The full-level rewards of Chen Xi's previous three practice systems are also combined into one and transferred to "Three-Point Return to Origin".

In other words, Chen Xi doesn't need to practice deliberately and will maintain a state of non-stop self-study, but Kawakami Tomie can't do that. She and the shadow guard want to improve their energy, so they can only meditate properly.

When they lived alone, Kawakami Tomie and Yingwei would meditate at night. Today was their wedding night after all, so they let it go. It had been a long time since she had her boss hold her in his arms as she slept, and she missed it quite a bit.

Compared with Chen Xi and Xu Damao, Sha Zhu did not have a good night. He was released, but after coming back, he did not see Comrade Fu Jiang and Sister Qin. He felt very upset.

When Sha Zhu thought that Comrade Tomie would become Chen Xi's woman tonight, his heart was broken. He also developed a rebellious attitude towards Tomie. She was just another vain woman. She just thought that Chen Xi was pretty. How could she compare to me?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Sha Zhu finally realized that the real good woman was his sister Qin, and everyone else was just so-so.

Qin Huairu, who was being missed by Sha Zhu, was starving. Why didn’t anyone come to bring her food tonight?

I used all the change in my pocket to buy food for Jia Dongxu. That bastard ate happily without even asking me a question.

Qin Huairu had no food to eat, and yet she had to help Jia Dongxu clean up the dirt. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Tears kept falling down her cheeks, but what she got in return was not comfort, but a slap in the face from Jia Dongxu.

"Cry, cry, cry! You just keep crying. You've ruined my luck. Let me tell you, Qin Huairu, my mother is right. The reason our family is in this state is because of you!"

The clinician couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him: "Comrade, you are promoting feudal superstition."

In front of outsiders, Jia Dongxu decisively admitted his mistake, apologized hurriedly, and then slapped Qin Huairu again.

The clinical staff didn't say anything else. It was someone else's family affair and they had no say in it.

Chapter 299 Report Letter

After getting married, Chen Xi had three days of wedding leave. He didn't have to go out to work, so he stayed at home busy making medicinal wine. Ordinary white wine would be fine, and a little Lingquan wine mixed in it would have a great effect.

Tomie Kawakami was busy cleaning the house inside and out, and then went out to do some shopping, spending almost all the money and receipts she had saved.

Wealth BUFF is of little use in this world. You can buy bills with money, but don’t go too far. It will only cause envy and lead to trouble.

When everyone is poor, it's not a big deal if you can live a little better. But if you are separated from the mass base, that's not okay. Especially in that special era, it was like bandits entering the city. The more you show off your wealth, the more miserable you will be.

Looking at Kawakami Tomie busying around in and out, the aunts in the yard felt quite regretful. Such a good girl, why couldn't she give birth?

Because there was a precedent of Yi Zhonghai in the courtyard, no one would mock Chen Xi for being a childless person out of jealousy, as this would be equivalent to offending Yi Zhonghai at the same time.

Even if you don't say it, everyone can understand the meaning in your eyes.

Chen Xi's counterattack was very simple. In front of those people, he and Tomie smiled at each other, expressing their sweet love in each other's gazes and smiles, with the main message being, "You are the only one in my eyes."

This dog food made those people choke. They all felt very upset. The person who cursed Chen Xi the most in his heart was Xu Damao, and he soon got his retribution.

Sha Zhu gave Xu Damao a beating early in the morning, and it was a very severe beating.

Xu Damao fell to the ground and wailed. Lou Xiao'e was panicked. Was he going to beat him to death?

"Silly Zhu! Just wait for me, I will never let you go!"

"Yes." Lou Xiao'e also echoed: "We need to find the public security police."

"Go find him!" Sha Zhu jumped to his feet and cursed, "Go find him! Xu Damao, you bastard, I tell you, you deserved it if I beat you up! You should have thought of this day when you reported me!"

Xu Damao: "???"

"Are you sick? When did I ever report you?"

Sha Zhu threw the letter of complaint he got from the shadow guard to Xu Damao: "Take a look, is it your handwriting?!"

Xu Damao picked up the letter of complaint on the ground in a daze. Lou Xiaoe also came over and after reading it, she closed her eyes weakly. It was Xu Damao's handwriting, and there were some small habits in his writing.

At any time, people who make accusations behind others' backs are not welcomed. This is not a meritorious act for reporting enemy spies. Xu Damao's behavior immediately caused criticism from people in the courtyard.

No one wants to have a sneaky and complaining person living next to him. If he can report Sha Zhu today, he might report someone else tomorrow.

Xu Damao felt so wronged: "I didn't write this!"

No one believed it. Xu Damao's reputation has never been very good. Now that the facts are in front of him, no one believes what he says.

Sha Zhu beat up Xu Damao and went to work feeling refreshed. Everyone else also left without even looking at Xu Damao.

Lou Xiao'e no longer clamored to find the police. Yes, if she went to find them, Sha Zhu would definitely be punished, but Xu Damao would be cut off from the yard.

"Let's go, Damao, I'll take you to the hospital first." Lou Xiao'e supported Xu Damao, who was still crying out for justice.

Xu Damao was so angry that he said, "Don't let me know who did it!"

After everyone had left work, Chen Xi was still sighing with a few middle-aged women: "Xu Damao didn't do a good job. How could he be like this? It's terrible."

"That's right, Xiao Chen. There are so many families in our courtyard. Who hasn't had some trouble? If we take it to Pigeon City, the officials won't investigate unless the people report it. But if someone reports it, then we can find out for sure."

"Third Aunt, you are very thoughtful. We can't just let this matter go. We need to let the three uncles think it over and see what to do about it."

"That bad boy Xu Damao is from the backyard. Even your uncle can't control him."

"We still have the Second Master, so it would be most appropriate for him to handle this matter."

"Then I'll have to talk to Old Yan and ask Old Liu to take care of it. We can't let this go on."

"Yeah, if this continues, who would dare to live in this courtyard? Xu Damao is really too ignorant."

While we were talking here, someone from the street came and said that they had received a letter of complaint, saying that someone in this courtyard was forcing people to donate.

"No!" Chen Xi denied it flatly: "No, who are these people, talking nonsense all day long?"

The clerk looked at the people in the hospital suspiciously: "Really? Let me tell you, this kind of thing is against the rules. If you lie, you will be held responsible."

At this moment, the faces of the aunties in the yard changed. The street clerk understood at a glance that something was wrong. It was not that these people did not want to speak, but that they did not dare to speak.

Well, the situation in this courtyard is more serious than I imagined. Who does the manager of the courtyard think he is? A local emperor?!

The more the people in the yard denied, the more certain the street clerk became that the matter was being covered up.

The main reason was that the report letter was too detailed, clearly indicating what Yi Zhonghai said and how much money each family donated. It did not seem to be fake at first glance.

After the street clerk left, the yard was in an uproar and the old lady was completely panicked.

Chen Xi hurriedly comforted the auntie, and said something that the clerk who had just left could vaguely hear: "The uncle... promised... not to... disclose it."

It was vague, but the meaning was clear enough, that is, everyone in the courtyard had been convinced by the old man, and no one would expose the matter.

The street clerk went back angrily and reported all the findings of his investigation, which included a lot of his own personal opinions.

Director Wang of the street was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "What does Yi Zhonghai want to do?!"

Yi Zhonghai, who worked in a steel rolling mill, had no idea that there was a fire in the backyard. This letter was not written by Chen Xi, but by Xu Damao.

Xu Damao understood what Chen Xi said that day, but he kept silent. The next day, he secretly wrote a letter of denunciation and sent it to the street office.

Yi Zhonghai organized a donation for the Jia family, but Xu Damao was not happy about it. Since the other party was so afraid of this matter being exposed, he had to expose it so that he would not have to donate again in the future.

When Sha Zhu mentioned the letter of complaint, Xu Damao was really scared, but when he saw that it had nothing to do with what he had reported, he felt relieved.

Xu Damao, who went to the hospital for treatment, was busy thinking about the letter of complaint. He doubted this and that, and even doubted himself. Could it be that he wrote it after getting drunk?

Xu Damao completely forgot about the letter of complaint he wrote to the street office.

That evening, after everyone in the hospital had gotten off work, Director Wang from the street came over, gathered everyone together, and severely criticized Yi Zhonghai, making him lose face.

In the conversation, Director Wang revealed some of the things he should or should not have said. The shrewd Yi Zhonghai understood that someone had reported him.

After all, they have been together for so many years, and Yi Zhonghai still has a very good reputation. He has been pretending to be a hypocrite for so long that he looks like a gentleman even if he is not one. People on the street still trust him very much.

Out of trust, Director Wang did not give the report letter to Yi Zhonghai, but just let him take a look at it.

When Yi Zhonghai saw the familiar font, he almost had a high blood pressure attack and hated Xu Damao to death.

With the previous experience of Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai had no doubt at all that only Xu Damao could do such a thing.

After the people from the street left, Xu Damao was in bad luck. Fortunately, everyone was there, so he continued to hold a general meeting.

At the meeting, Yi Zhonghai seriously reflected on his mistakes, and then changed the topic to express his views on the style of the report letter.

Next came the second and third uncles. All three uncles said the same thing: letters of denunciation were unacceptable as they would undermine the unity of the courtyard.

Xu Damao lowered his head and didn't dare to look at anyone. There was nothing he could do. Everyone in the hospital was staring at him, and he was afraid.

Lou Xiao'e no longer wanted to care about it. Her man only did small things behind her back, and she was so disappointed.

Sha Zhu wanted to take action but was stopped by Yi Zhonghai. He couldn't fight at this time. If he hit Xu Damao, it would be equivalent to hitting Director Wang in the face.

But everyone in the hospital took note of this incident, and they all reached a consensus that they should avoid Xu Damao in the future, as he was a villain.

Xu Damao became the most unpopular person in the courtyard. Although no one could drive him away, Xu Damao was isolated, and even Lou Xiao'e was affected.

This era attached great importance to reputation and interpersonal relationships. Xu Damao's reputation in the courtyard was completely ruined, and everything he did spread out, even reaching the ears of the leaders of the steel mill.

The leaders who had been caring for Xu Damao out of Director Lou's face no longer dared to contact Xu Damao. This person was too scary. Who knew if he would report them secretly.

If I can't afford to offend you, I can always hide from you.

Isn’t Xu Damao a projectionist? It’s great, why don’t he go to the countryside to show movies instead of staying in the factory. He is a nuisance.

Lou Bancheng heard about it and was extremely disappointed with his son-in-law. At the same time, he became cautious. If there was anyone who was most afraid of being reported, it would undoubtedly be the Lou family. He was worried about Xu Damao's character.

Xu Damao went to the countryside, and Lou Xiao'e returned to her parents' home. She couldn't stand the thief-like looks and attitudes in the hospital.

Sha Zhu's situation was not good either. After Director Yang issued a clear order to forbid him, he didn't dare to bring things back, at least not now. He didn't want to put himself in danger.

Since Sha Zhu didn't bring his lunch box, the Jia family suffered. Even before Jia Dongxu was injured, the Jia family often asked Sha Zhu for a lunch box, and the reason was for Bang Geng's growth.

The lunch box was gone, and the people in the Jia family immediately changed their faces. Banggeng, the ungrateful guy, even called him a waste in front of Shazhu. This made Shazhu so angry that he wanted to beat Banggeng up.

Of course, he failed to beat her. Jia Zhang was watching, and Yi Zhonghai also tried to persuade him, saying the most disgusting words: "He is still a child. Why do you, an adult, have to bother with him?"

On the day Chen Xi went to work, Jia Dongxu was finally discharged from the hospital. Following him were Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu, who were completely enemies.

Chen Xi took the medicinal wine and went directly to find Director Li. He didn't say much, just chatted for a few words. After leaving the medicinal wine, he left.

Director Li didn't take it seriously and just packed it up. He only remembered it after he got home in the evening. He thought, since he had it back, why not give it a try?

After this test, the next day, Director Li took the initiative to come to the Medical Department and asked for Chen Xi. In front of others, he praised Chen Xi's work spirit, his seriousness, responsibility, and hard work. If it weren't for Chen Xi, Jia Dongxu would have died on the spot. In short, after praising him for a long time, he learned that Chen Xi had just got married and rewarded him with a sewing plane ticket.

After Director Li left, everyone in the Medical Department felt like they were in a dream. What was going on?

Naturally, Chen Xi would not say anything. He just secretly went to Director Li's house at night, delivered the prepared things, and made a request by the way, hoping that Director Li could help him get a batch of wood.

"Xiao Chen, you have the medicinal wine, why don't you go find the director of the furniture factory yourself?"

"That's impossible." Chen Xi said with a smile, "I work at the steel mill. How can I go to see the director of the mill? I'll come to you for this matter."

"Hahaha!" Director Li laughed out loud and pointed at Chen Xi with his finger: "You are relying on me. Okay, I will help you with this matter."

"Oh! Thank you, Director. If you ask me, the one who truly cares about the workers in the factory is you. Since you took office, you have done so many practical things for us. Some of them are not said, but we have seen them all."

"Hey~" Director Li waved his hand: "Xiao Chen, don't say such things. Serving the people is what we should do."

"Yes, yes, the director is right. You are the director. I am far behind in terms of ideological progress."

"Nonsense!" Director Li frowned and said, "Xiao Chen, don't underestimate yourself. I have high hopes for you. Do a good job in the Medical Department. You are destined to have a bright future."

"Thank you Director Li for your kind words." Chen Xi looked out the window and said hurriedly, "Oh, it's already this late, I won't disturb you from resting."

"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed it. It's really late now. So let's leave it at that for tonight. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to come and report to me."
