The strong fisherman in the courtyard

Chapter 484: The Jia Family’s Response

The next day.

Li Ming had just stretched out his recliner and went out when he saw Xu Damao squatting in the front yard with dull eyes and dark circles under his eyes. Li Ming was almost scared to death!

"Brother Damao, what's wrong with you?" Li Ming walked up to Xu Damao helplessly and handed him a cigarette.

Xu Damao took it and lit it numbly, "Huh, I didn't sleep well the whole night! This morning I told everyone in the Intermediate Court about He Yuzhu's blind date, Qin Huairu must have known about it."

"I've seen Qin Huairu's expression as if she had eaten a dead fly. All we can do now is wait for her to take action."

"According to what we talked about yesterday, maybe we can actually get this done, but your brother is under a lot of pressure!"

Looking at Xu Damao, who looked as if half of his soul was taken away, Li Ming felt that it was a good principle for men to behave themselves outside. Although he couldn't have girls everywhere, it was better to live a stable and secure life!

Otherwise, look at Xu Damao now, he is so miserable!

"Then let's just wait. There's no other good solution. No matter whether it succeeds in the end or not, we still have to celebrate the New Year." Li Ming reluctantly consoled.

It's easy to ask him to curse or poke someone in the lungs, but it's a bit difficult to ask him to comfort a grown man.

"Well, how could I not know what you said? But as long as this matter is not resolved one day, I will feel anxious and uncomfortable!" Xu Damao sighed.

Li Ming patted Xu Damao's shoulder helplessly. There was no better solution at this point. He could only wait and see.

Li Ming, who had just finished lying on the recliner, saw Xu Damao stand up unsteadily. He looked puzzled and asked, "Brother Damao, what are you doing?"

"I'm going out for a walk to relax."

"Ahhh, that's good."

Li Ming ignored Xu Damao and waited until Xu Damao disappeared in the courtyard. Then Li Ming continued to enjoy his life peacefully on the recliner.

This year is the 61st year. After this year is over, these three ridiculous years will be over. At least the food problem will not be so serious in the future. Li Ming's black market business will definitely slow down and he will make less money.

But it's not a big problem. He has made a lot of cash in the past three years, not to mention small yellow croakers and antiques.

However, when 66 begins, chaos will break out again, and his black market business will still be hot for a while. He will not be in a hurry to make money. He will just have to see which family in their courtyard will be unlucky.

Anyway, as long as Li Ming holds Li Huaide's thigh firmly, at least their family will be worry-free in the future, and he can't control other people.

Middle Court.

Qin Huairu continued to wash clothes in the sink in the middle courtyard with a basin of water. I don't know why the Jia family has so many clothes to wash every day all year round? Qin Huairu is also a big shot.

Ever since Qin Huairu heard Xu Damao say that He Yuzhu was on a blind date and might get married soon, she has been feeling very nervous.

Just as Li Ming and the others guessed, Qin Huairu was indeed planning to use He Yuzhu as a trap for the Jia family, especially when Bang Geng was half disabled. Otherwise, Qin Huairu would not be able to raise these three children alone.

But now, before Qin Huairu could implement her plan, she was hit hard by Xu Damao! It was also because the Jia family had been in trouble recently. Qin Huairu was a little overwhelmed just dealing with the Banggeng incident, let alone continuing to care about He Yuzhu.

As a result, Qin Huairu didn't take good care of him, and He Yuzhu ran away! How can she calm down? Banggeng is now a big cripple, and now He Yuzhu is also going to run away, which is even worse!

Qin Huairu was washing clothes carelessly while looking in the direction of He Yuzhu's house.

He Yuzhu, who was so lazy that he almost had bugs on his butt, started to clean up the house early this morning, which was unusual. Yes, although the Chinese New Year is coming soon and every household should clean up, the important thing is that He Yuzhu did not clean up the house during the Chinese New Year in previous years!

Only when his blind date comes to He Yuzhu's house will he start cleaning up so diligently. Qin Huairu basically knows why He Yuzhu is in this state without having to think about it.

Jia Zhang, who was sewing shoe soles at home, could also see Qin Huairu and the abnormal He Yuzhu through the window. She also heard Xu Damao shouting at He Yuzhu in the yard in the morning.

Now Jia Zhang was in a difficult position! She didn't want Qin Huairu to marry again. If Qin Huairu married, what would happen to the three children at home? What would she do as an old woman who was half buried in the ground?

So she still looked at Qin Huairu very closely, but the situation in their family was not good to begin with, and now the only child and hope of the Jia family was gone. If there was no man to help the family, it would probably take only a few years for the family to break up.

She thought the same as Qin Huairu, looking for someone to help her. Without a doubt, He Yuzhu was the most suitable person in the courtyard! But now He Yuzhu seemed to be getting farther and farther away from their Jia family. Not only Qin Huairu was worried, but Jia Zhang was also worried!

After a while, Qin Huairu came in from outside with a wash basin in her red, frozen hands, and was hanging clothes at home silently.

Jia Zhang seemed to have made a difficult decision. She took out two pieces of money from her pension fund and handed them to Bang Geng. "My dear grandson, take your two sisters out to buy some food."

Bang Geng, who was lying on his back, saw the two dollars in Jia Zhang's hand and jumped out of bed faster than a normal person. He took the money from Jia Zhang and shouted to the two children, "Come on, I'll take you out to buy food!"

After shouting, Banggeng quickly found his third leg and took his two sisters out of the Jia family.

As for why Jia Zhang gave him money to buy things, Jia Geng didn't care at all. As long as he had money, it was good enough!

Only Jia Zhang was stunned until Banggeng went out. Then she reacted. Judging from the smooth movement of Banggeng getting up, taking the money and going out, he really didn't look like a man with a lame leg or a disabled hand.

Qin Huairu was also surprised, but she was not surprised at Banggeng, but at how the stingy old Jia Zhang could be so generous as to give her pension money to Banggeng today!

"Mom? What are you doing?"

"Huairu, close the door, mom wants to talk to you!" Jia Zhang waved her finger and signaled Qin Huairu.

Chapter 485: Restless Courtyard

"Huai Ru, is Sha Zhu going on a blind date?"

Qin Huairu nodded. "I asked around and it seems that his blind date came to visit our house today."

Jia Zhang sighed with a dark face, "You know the situation in our family. Now Bang Geng is like this again. If Sha Zhuzi gets married, our family..."

Jia Zhang didn't say the rest of the sentence, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law knew it very well. Qin Huairu wanted to find someone to help him, and Jia Zhang also hoped that Qin Huairu would find someone to help him.

"I understand, Mom. I'll go over there in a while and see if I can mess things up for Sha Zhu." Qin Huairu said expressionlessly and indifferently.

Jia Zhang nodded with satisfaction, "I'll take you to get an IUD after a while. Don't blame me in your heart. I'm doing this for our family and for the three children."

Qin Huairu remained in this state, nodded, and continued to clean the house.

Qin Huairu knew exactly what Jia Zhang was thinking. She just wanted to make her unable to have children after having an IUD inserted. Then she would hang He Yuzhu with her own body, and make him help the Jia family for the rest of his life.

Just like He Yuzhu's father who is now trying to protect the city and recruit gangs!

Even if Jia Zhang didn't say it, Qin Huairu would have planned so. She didn't think much about Jia Zhang. She was thinking about her three children. She had to find a way to raise them!

As for He Yuzhu? Well, no one would consider his feelings, at least not the two widows of the Jia family.

There are no good people!

. . . . . .

It’s a little after nine in the morning, not yet ten.

Li Ming was lying on a recliner with his eyes closed, enjoying life. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, accompanied by a rapid "thump thump thump" sound, and then stopped abruptly.

"Mingzi, here he comes!"

Li Ming was stunned when he heard Xu Damao's voice, "Who the hell is here???"

Xu Damao was so anxious that he was about to jump up and down, "It's not someone, it's He Yuzhu's blind date!"

After hearing this, Li Ming finally reacted, "So do you have to hide?"

Xu Damao nodded repeatedly. Li Ming had no choice but to drag Xu Damao directly into the house. The two of them stood by the stove and looked outside through the window.

"He Yuzhu is a little too fast! We just met for a walk yesterday, and the girl's family came to visit today. Damn, if you say there's nothing wrong with this woman, I'll eat the coal briquettes!" Li Ming said with a smile.

"We can see it, but do you think that idiot He Yuzhu can see it?" Xu Damao was much more alert now. Things had come to this point, so he could only cheer up and deal with it well.

"Moreover, I suspect that we are not the only ones who know about it. Yi Zhonghai must know about it, and he has no good intentions!" Xu Damao said gritting his teeth.

He wanted to expose Yi Zhonghai now! He was just causing trouble for Xu Damao! You cheated He Yuzhu, but you dragged Xu Damao into it.

Li Ming smacked his lips. "There are no good people in our Siheyuan! They are all so filthy. They really affect the harmonious atmosphere of our Siheyuan."

Xu Damao nodded in agreement, "We can only see if Qin Huairu can get things done today. If she can, I can spend the New Year with peace of mind."

"Hehe, then we'll have to see who has higher skills between Qin Huairu and the guy with the half-closed door. Let's go check it out later."

Li Ming extended an invitation to Xu Damao.

Xu Damao shook his head like a rattle, "You are trying to kill me, your brother! Mingzi, you can go when the time comes. I will wait for you to come back and tell me the news!"

"Okay, that's no problem!"

While the two brothers were chatting, they saw the "half-open door" coming into the courtyard through the window.

"I know what you said, Brother Damao. To be honest, when I see this woman, I now doubt whether Qin Huairu can get things done." Li Ming sighed.

Not to mention the way she dresses, she is far better than Qin Huairu! She walks as if she has practiced before, and is comparable to the models that Li Ming has seen in his later life, with a cat-like step, so woosh!

This face, this figure, hey! Oval face, a pair of foxy eyes; a curvy figure, and a pair of wine glass legs! I don’t know what kind of cotton pants this woman is wearing, how can it highlight her figure so much?

He Yuzhu can't bear it, definitely can't bear it! Li Ming guarantees that He Yuzhu likes this! Qin Huairu's rival, Qin Huairu can't beat this woman!

No wonder Xu Damao is so timid, tsk tsk!

Li Ming patted Xu Damao's shoulder in a comforting manner, "Brother Damao, it's not a pity that you died with this woman!"

Xu Damao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What time is it? You're still hitting me! Hurry up and go out to help me take a look. I hope Qin Huairu can perform better, otherwise..."

Li Ming had never seen this woman before. After listening to what Xu Damao said, he went out directly. It would have been no big deal if he had gone out. Wow, all the old and young people in the front yard went out, and followed this woman to the middle yard one by one.

There is no need to think about it. It won’t be long before the group of people in the backyard will come out. Then the middle courtyard will be bustling!

"My goodness, this woman is really exciting!"

"Is this He Yuzhu's blind date? Holy shit! This doesn't make sense. How can a woman like this fall in love with a fool?"

"Hey, are you the only one who thinks it's unreasonable? I fucking think so too! Is this woman blind? Or does she just like He Yuzhu like this?"

"You ask me who should I ask? Where should I go?"

"Something is wrong, something is wrong, something is very wrong!"

"Xiao Mingzi, what's the matter? Do you like this style too?"

A sweet voice came from Li Ming's ears, and he knew which girl it was without even turning his head.

"Stop it, I'm here to see He Yuzhu having fun. What does this woman have to do with me!" Li Ming grinned.

No matter how straight he is, he can still tell what Wu Xuanxuan means to him. If he foolishly nodded, and his beautiful future wife ran away, he would have no place to cry!

Besides, haha, Li Ming admitted that this "half-open door" lady was very coquettish, but she was definitely no match for Wu Xuanxuan.

Even if he didn't know anything, anyone would know how to choose between new and second-hand goods! Not to mention that Li Ming now knows more about this "half-open door" lady than He Yuzhu! At least Xu Damao knows the depth of this woman, but He Yuzhu doesn't!

If He Yuzhu wants to know the ins and outs, haha, that would cost a lot of money! Or maybe Xu Damao is smarter, people just want the right to use it, but He Yuzhu, this idiot, wants the right to own it, so the price is naturally not the same level, right?

Chapter 486 He Yuzhu is flattered

Li Ming took Wu Xuanxuan to find a good seat in the central courtyard to watch the show. Yi Zhonghai also came out of his house at a very appropriate time and walked up to the lady with the "half-open door".

"Lili, the one in front is Zhuzi's house. I'll take you there. Zhuzi's room is the largest in our courtyard. It will be convenient in the future." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile, looking like a good old man.

Qian Lili smiled and nodded. It was really touching. After all, Yi Zhonghai had experienced it a few times. Otherwise, how could he have gotten in touch with her?

"Okay, Master Yi, take me there."

The sound is numb, the tea is delicious!

Li Ming's ears were quite good and he got goose bumps after listening to it!

Wu Xuanxuan and Li Ming might not be able to hear clearly from their positions, but they could tell that the two knew each other, and were perhaps very familiar with each other! At least Wu Xuanxuan could tell, and she just didn't ask Li Ming, otherwise Li Ming would have to explain the derivative meaning of the idiom "Guan Bao Zhi Jiao".

He Yuzhu grinned and stood at the door, watching Yi Zhonghai and Qian Lili walk in together. For today's meeting, He Yuzhu took out all the clothes in the bottom of the box, and bought the hair wax specially last night! Today, he washed his big oily head and applied a layer of hair wax. He Yuzhu felt that he was very handsome today!

"Zhu Zi~" Qian Lili called out with a smile when she saw He Yuzhu.

Sha Zhu nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, "Hey, Comrade Lili, come in quickly, Uncle Yi, you should also come quickly, I have already made the tea."

Yi Zhonghai was extremely satisfied. Look, this pillar still hasn't forgotten him!

The three of them entered the house, and He Yuzhu immediately closed the door. He didn't want anyone to keep watching his date today! He even chased his sister away!

How can there be room for all these neighbors in the courtyard? These neighbors may not necessarily see He Yuzhu as a good person! You see, sometimes He Yuzhu still has an IQ online.

When the neighbors who were watching the fun outside saw that He Yuzhu actually closed the door, most of them wanted to curse, and Li Ming was the same.

"I really want to follow this idiot Zhuzi's blind date story, why can't people watch it?" Li Ming cursed in a low voice.

Wu Xuanxuan laughed so hard when she heard Li Ming's complaints, "Xiao Mingzi, can't you be serious?"

Li Ming was surprised and pointed at himself, "I am not serious? I am the section chief! How can I be the section chief if I am not serious?"

"Oh, yes, yes, you are right! Come with me to buy some things first!" Wu Xuanxuan responded with a smile, and grabbed Li Ming's shoulder. The two of them left the central courtyard and went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative outside.

What? You mean Xu Damao? Well, Xu Damao is sitting at home by the stove and won't freeze to death, why worry about this? If Li Ming still misses Xu Damao when he has a beautiful girl by his side, wouldn't that be stupid?
