The strong fisherman in the courtyard

Chapter 299 Li Ming's Nickname

"Mingzi is really good at talking. If you like to eat it, come to my house and I will make it for you!"

Liu Lanfang made the decision right away. Her family couldn't bear to let go of such a good child, so she had to let her daughter have a try no matter what.

She was quite confident about her girl.

"Okay, Aunt Liu, just don't dislike me when the time comes."

Li Ming said happily, and took a cigarette from Li Huaide and lit it.

After finishing, he flipped his hand, like a magic trick, and took out another box of special supplies and placed it on the table.

After all, this was his first time here and he didn’t bring anything with him. If everyone likes to smoke, just put a box of cigarettes there.

Li Huaide's eyes lit up and he subconsciously reached out to touch it, but his hand happened to touch Wu Qiangguo's.

"Lao Wu, what are you doing?"

"What are you doing? This guy Mingzi threw it on our table."

Well, this situation of two drunkards is not fun, so Li Ming flipped his hand and took out another box.

"Please stop looking at me. I only have these two boxes left."

Li Ming spread his hands and said innocently.

"That's pretty much it."

Li Huaide happily put a box in his pocket, and Wu Qiangguo also silently put away the box on the table.

These people didn't pay attention to how Li Ming took it out, they just took it out of his pocket.

Only Wu Xuanxuan's eyes lit up. She saw it clearly, so she must have seen it clearly.

Li Ming flipped his hand and there was a box. The little girl gave Li Ming an inquiring look and threw it to him. Li Ming was happy. He didn't expect that the girl had discovered it.

But he was not worried. He had thought it through before. If he was really discovered, it would just be a trick. What else could it be?

He can't possibly know magic or immortal arts, right? This isn't the realm of fantasy cultivation!

"Sister Xuanxuan, magic trick."

Li Ming whispered something, and the two drunks didn't pay any attention to the communication between Li Ming and Wu Xuanxuan. Only Liu Lanfang's eyes lit up. She saw the little actions of the two children and was now smiling like an aunt.

At the dinner table, the two drunks were exposing each other's secrets, while Liu Lanfang had an auntie's smile on her face. It seemed that she was watching the two drunks quarreling, but in fact, she was paying attention to the little movements of her daughter and Li Ming.

"Really?"

"No, we have to believe in science."

When Wu Xuanxuan heard this, she also felt that she was dazzled, but she didn't care. Whether she was dazzled or not, she could just look more carefully next time.

Besides, they just met today, so it’s not good to talk too much.

"Hey, by the way, Xuanxuan, I have to tell you something."

Wu Qiangguo, who was exposing each other's secrets, suddenly remembered what Li Huaide had told him about He Yuzhu today. He quickly stopped arguing with Li Huaide and started to instruct his girl instead.

"What's the matter?"

Wu Xuanxuan looked confused. How could she have anything to do with it?

When Wu Qiangguo saw that his girl's attention had returned to him, he told Wu Xuanxuan what Li Huaide had told him during the day about He Yuzhu.

Considering that there was such a Siheyuan native at the table, after Wu Qiangguo finished speaking, everyone at the table looked at He Yuzhu, as if they needed him to confirm it.

"Uncle Wu and Uncle Li are right. He Yuzhu, also known as Shazhu, is well-known as a fool among us."

"Don't even mention him beating up his boss. That's commonplace."

Li Ming took a sip of boiled water, cleared his throat and continued speaking.

"You are like the kitchen helpers in their second canteen. He Yuzhu just scolded them when he had nothing to do. They are a terrible bunch."

Since they were saying bad things about He Yuzhu, it was naturally his duty as Li Ming to do so.

And this is not a bad thing, it can only be said to be the truth.

"Not only that, he also likes Qin Huairu, the daughter-in-law of the Jia family across from them, who is also the "cuckold brother" Jia Dongxu in our factory!"

As Li Ming spoke, he glanced at Li Huaide. Li Huaide knew about this matter, but he didn't remember it during the day. Now that Li Ming mentioned it, he could be sure of it.

"Mingzi is right. Many people in our steel mill know about this."

Li Huaide took a puff of cigarette calmly. After all, he was old enough to have seen all kinds of people. He Yuzhu's behavior was just slightly outrageous at best.

However, to Liu Lanfang and Wu Xuanxuan, this was no less than a thunderclap.

Wu Xuanxuan was so shocked that she was a little confused. She murmured, "There are still such people? From what you said, the man of Qin Huairu in the middle courtyard is still alive?"

"That's for sure."

Li Ming said happily, but I can’t say for sure what will happen next year.

"Xuanxuan, I think you should not go to the Central Courtyard in the future. There are quite a few scumbags in this courtyard."

Wu Xuanxuan nodded numbly, feeling that Li Ming's family was the only normal family in this courtyard.

At least now they only know of this family of reliable people.

"You will understand when you spend more time in the courtyard. How can we describe this courtyard? We can only say that there are all kinds of people!"

"Anything else?"*3.

Except for Li Huaide, the other three members of the Wu family said the same thing.

The reason why Li Huaide was not surprised was that he knew something about it.

Li Ming looked surprised, "Uncle Li, you have a good relationship with Uncle Wu, right?"

"That's for sure!"

Li Huaide nodded in confirmation.

"Then why did you arrange for Uncle Wu and the others to stay in this courtyard?"

Wu Qiangguo looked at Li Huaide with a pained expression, as if he wanted to stuff Li Huaide into a wine bottle and throw him into the Jinshui River.

"Hey, you can't blame me for this! Damn it, you're just throwing dirty water on your Uncle Li!"

When Li Huaide saw Wu Qiangguo's dangerous expression, he subconsciously shuddered. You can't say such nonsense!

"Your uncle Wu is unlucky. There are no suitable houses available recently! If there were any, could I arrange for him to live in your courtyard house? Or the three back houses?"

emmmmmm... Actually, what Li Huaide said was not wrong. At least the area of ​​these three back rooms is really not small.

"But you should at least tell me in advance!"

Wu Qiangguo's expression remained unfriendly.

"Well, the main thing is that I thought Mingzi was also in this courtyard. I thought I would introduce her to you guys when the time comes, so you can get familiar with her as soon as possible, right?"

"Besides, aren't we our own people? With the help of the Li family, how can you, Old Wu, suffer any loss?"

Li Huaide looked at Li Ming fiercely, "Don't think I don't know, you are a kid. No one in this courtyard dares to mess with your Li family!"

"You are the little bully in the courtyard who can throw Shazhu several meters away with one hand. Don't say that your uncle Li made up this nickname!"

Chapter 300: Educating new residents about the status of animals in courtyards

Hey, you know what, this is the first time that Li Ming heard his own nickname from someone else, and it feels pretty good!

As for the three people of the Wu family, they looked at Li Ming with curiosity, mainly because Li Ming's physique did not look like the kind of strong and powerful person.

Unexpectedly, this kid actually has a trick up his sleeve!

"Ah, false reputation, it's all false reputation, not worth mentioning!"

Li Ming pretended to be shy.

"Haha, you really are!"

Wu Qiangguo burst out laughing when he saw it. This kid Li Ming has such a humorous side!

Liu Lanfang and Wu Xuanxuan also looked at Li Ming with smiles on their faces, especially Liu Lanfang. She had such good qualifications to be a son-in-law and she was also humorous in her speech. It was really rare!

"Okay, stop making jokes, I'm not as familiar with your Siheyuan as you are, so hurry up and introduce your uncle Wu to the situation of the Siheyuan."

Li Huaide waved his hand with a look of disdain and asked Li Ming to get down to business.

"Okay then, I'll start from the front yard, and we'll go step by step!"

Li Ming took a sip of water, cleared his throat and then spoke.

Wu Xuanxuan was very considerate and poured Li Ming another glass of water, then pretended to listen attentively.

"In the front yard of our courtyard, the only people worth noting are Yan Fugui and his Yan family. He is now the second uncle of our courtyard. Before, he was the third uncle, but something happened to the first uncle Yi Zhonghai, so he was dismissed, and that's when Yan Fugui became the second uncle."

"The most notable person in their family before was Yan Fugui, but now there is another one, Yan Jiecheng. You know more or less about this kid. Let me talk about Yan Fugui."

"Yan Fugui, the second uncle of our steel mill courtyard, is nicknamed "Yan Laoxier" and "Abacus Master". As the name suggests, this man is stingy to a certain level."

"If you don't pick up money when you go out, you're losing money. The manure carts passing by their doorsteps can taste the saltiness. Even the mosquitoes that fly past him in the summer, he can always break off the wings of the mosquitoes and use them as snacks!"

Not only the Wu family, but even Director Li Huaide was listening with great interest!

"Is it really as exaggerated as you say?"

Wu Qiangguo looked incredulous, mainly because what Li Ming said was a bit mysterious.

"Well, if you don't believe me, then take some time to talk to Yan Fugui. If this old man doesn't try to take advantage of you, then he's not Yan Fugui!"

"Those, I'll try them out sometime!"

Wu Qiangguo nodded in response seriously.

Liu Lanfang slapped Wu Qiangguo in the face and said, "I am telling you something serious! Don't make trouble. Just listen carefully. Can Mingzi fool you?"

"Hey, Akiko, continue."

Lao Wu nodded and agreed with a look of fear on his face.

Wu Xuanxuan covered her mouth and laughed.

Li Ming didn't care. After a long time, Wu Qiangguo would naturally know how terrifying Yan Fugui was. He was very strong.

"The Central Court is a bit too lively. Let's start with the former First Master Yi Zhonghai. In fact, you will know it after a long time, but I still want to tell you so that you can be mentally prepared."

"The former number one uncle, Yi Zhonghai, was discovered by the joint defense team when he went to the black market in the middle of the night and insulted the members of the joint defense team. Not only was his position as an uncle abolished, but he also had committed crimes at the steel mill. As a result, his rank at the steel mill was demoted and he was also punished by not being allowed to take assessments for two years."

"The steel mill even gave him a disciplinary warning."

Director Li added on the side.

"Yes, there is such a thing! Of course, this is not the most important thing."

As soon as these words came out, the four of them stared at Li Ming, as if they were expecting Li Ming to reveal some big news.

"Yi Zhonghai is a well-known old family with no money left in our Siheyuan. He now has two godsons, namely Jia Dongxu, the "cuckold brother" of the Central Courtyard, and He Yuzhu, the idiot."

"These two are the candidates for Yi Zhonghai's retirement. This man is very good at moral kidnapping, that is, standing on the moral high ground and pointing fingers."

"However, he has restrained himself a lot recently. It may be because he lost his job as a master and his leg was broken during a night patrol some time ago."

As soon as Li Ming revealed the secrets of the courtyard, they were all shocked and could not close their mouths.

I thought Yan Fugui was outrageous enough, but I didn’t expect it to be even more outrageous!

It was also the first time they understood that the saying "there is always a mountain higher than the one you are on" could be applied in this situation.

Comrade Wu Qiangguo took a sip of tea to calm down his nerves. "Good fellow, Lao Li, this courtyard you found for me is really full of hidden talents!"

"You're really worried that I won't be able to live a comfortable life!"

Li Huaide smiled awkwardly. The right thing to do now would be not to respond to this conversation!

Afterwards, Li Ming introduced the other oddities in the courtyard to the Wu family one by one, and also broadened Li Huaide's horizons along the way.

Like the "cuckold brother" Jia Dongxu, the married woman lover He Yuzhu, the white lotus Qin Huairu who has not yet fully bloomed, and the beggar family Jia family.

The "domestic violence man" and the "official-obsessed" Liu Haizhong, the deaf old lady who pretended to be deaf, and the philandering Xu Damao, these famous characters in the original plot, all left a deep impression on the Wu family and Li Huaide.

As for whether these beasts' lives will change in the future? Sorry, that has nothing to do with Li Ming!

Li Ming doesn't care about killing or burying them. He doesn't bother to think about the future of these beasts!
