The strong fisherman in the courtyard

"Well, just go ahead. I don't think it's a big deal. As long as they don't go against us, that's fine."

The aunt thought it was something important, like their retirement plan was blocked again or something. After all the trouble, it turned out to be just such a small matter. Was it necessary to be so depressed?

Yi Zhonghai was quite angry at the aunt's nonchalant look, but he didn't say anything. The couple didn't have a stupid child, and their life was pretty simple. There was no need for them to quarrel over such a small matter, which would make them a laughing stock.

That's right, since Yi Zhonghai's family couldn't have children, they have never had a quarrel! At least no one knows when they quarrel, which is also one of the personalities that Yi Zhonghai deliberately created.

After all, having no offspring is not a good thing. If they quarrel every day, it will be a joke, right? Yi Zhonghai now attaches great importance to face.

Although the aunt didn't understand, Yi Zhonghai didn't comment and just let it go.

In the middle courtyard, the He family.

He Yushui still went out to visit his classmates. He was the only one left at home today. Today was already a day of financial loss and debt. As a result, Yi Zhonghai held a meeting in the evening and asked the people in the hospital to help put in some good words for He Yuzhu so that he could wait for his blind date.

Unexpectedly, the Li family was so disrespectful! This was because He Yuzhu couldn't beat that little bastard from the Li family. If He Yuzhu could beat him, he would have rushed forward just now!

I wouldn't be drinking alone in the house now, feeling that life is getting harder and harder!

"Eh, I don't know when the third blind date that the uncle promised me will show up~~~"

He Yuzhu drank a whole bottle of Erguotou by herself, and the expression on her face was like a woman who had been hiding at home complaining about this and that for decades.

. . . . . .

The next day.

After finishing his breakfast, Li Ming saw that the sun had risen outside, so he moved a recliner to the front yard to bask in the sun.

Before he could even finish smoking a cigarette, Xu Damao walked in from outside accompanied by Xu Fugui and Xu's mother.

"Akiko!"

Xu Damao had just walked in and saw Li Ming basking in the sun. He immediately greeted him excitedly, which confused Li Ming.

He originally thought that since the Xu family had extorted three hundred yuan from Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu, he should at least stay in the hospital for a few days as a token of his respect. But he never expected that this guy would show up the next day.

"Good boy, Brother Damao, you're discharged from the hospital pretty early!"

Xu Damao had a constant smile on his face. To be honest, he was basically recovered the next day after being sent to the hospital. He estimated that the consequences of his injury were not as serious as Yi Zhonghai's being kicked in the circle.

The most serious thing was fainting, but I recovered after a while at the hospital.

"Hey, it's nothing! Besides, the New Year is just around the corner, so it's good to be discharged early."

"Yes, yes, that's right."

Xu Fugui also came over with a smile on his face, "Let Damao take you to eat mutton hotpot tonight, to get rid of the bad luck for this kid before he is discharged from the hospital."

"Sure, no problem for me, just pay for it, Brother Damao."

Li Ming responded with a smile.

This time Xu Damao was extremely tough. He patted his chest and said, "Mingzi, leave it to your brother and I'll be done with it!"

"By the way, Damao, you can't drink!"

Seeing her son's unruly appearance, Xu's mother quickly added, "Mingzi, you should also keep an eye on Damao. He just got out of the hospital, so he can't drink. The doctor specifically told him not to drink."

"Okay, auntie, just don't worry."

Li Ming had no objection at all to asking Li Ming to watch over Xu Damao and not let him drink, otherwise Li Ming would have to return the stuff Xu Damao poured out from the three cups.

Xu Damao touched his head and smiled awkwardly, "No, no, not this time."

The two chatted for a while before parting ways, but they made an appointment to go to Donglaishun for a meal together in the evening.

Front yard, Li's house.

"Dad, Mom, I'm not going to eat at home tonight."

"What's wrong?"

"Xu Damao was discharged from the hospital today, and he treated me to mutton hotpot at Donglaishun tonight!"

Li Ming smiled happily, it was not because he could not afford it, but the feeling of getting it for free was even more fascinating.

The Li family members didn't feel anything about Li Ming going out to eat in the evening. Instead, they were all surprised at Xu Damao's stubborn behavior.

This bastard extorted three hundred yuan from Shazhu and walked out of the hospital openly the next day.

No matter how dumb He Yuzhu is, he can understand that he is being blackmailed. Of course, He Yuzhu may not care about being blackmailed, but the problem is that this is simply a slap in the face and disgusting.

I can only say that they are worthy of being the Xu family. This family is not afraid of Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu.

"Go ahead, come back early in the evening and don't drink."

Mother Li was still very concerned about the safety of her eldest son, unlike Comrade Li Weiguo who simply ignored his son when he heard his favorite topic.

"Hehe, don't worry. Xu Damao won't drink today, so I'll go there with an empty stomach and come back after I'm full."

Without mentioning the lively atmosphere in the Li family now, if we go back in time, the three people from the Xu family were passing by the central courtyard openly, and it happened that Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu were also in the courtyard, whispering about something.

The Xu family members even deliberately walked around the two of them before slowly walking towards the backyard.

He totally ignored the expressions of Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu, who looked like they had eaten a dead fly. Although they had known for a long time that the Xu family was blackmailing people, your coming out the next day was more than just blackmailing. This is purely disgusting!

He Yuzhu tremblingly took out two cigarettes from the cigarette box, handed one to Yi Zhonghai, then lit it and took a deep puff, only then did he calm down his unstable emotions.

Chapter 173 Conversation at Donglaishun

Yi Zhonghai also suppressed his curse words and took a deep puff of his cigarette. "Anyway, that's the situation. Zhuzi, I will try to find you a suitable blind date before the New Year. Let's try again."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your arrangements, sir."

Sure enough, He Yuzhu can only be happy when the matter of finding a wife is mentioned. He is also an lsp, but a guy with lustful thoughts but no courage.

As for the three members of the Xu family who returned home, they began to clean the house. After all, they had wasted a day because of Xu Damao's matter, and now the house had to be cleaned up as the New Year was approaching.

"Lao Xu, I'm going out to buy some things. You and Damao stay at home and clean up first."

Xu Fugui wiped the sweat off his forehead and nodded, "Okay, go ahead. Damao and I will clean up the house first."

Only then did Xu's mother pick up a small bag with some money stuffed in it. She learned this when she was a nanny in her master's house. Don't worry about whether she has the style or not, the posture must be correct.

. . . . . .

It was a little after four in the afternoon. It gets dark early in winter, and it was almost night when Xu Damao's voice rang out in the front yard.

"Mingzi, let's go eat at Donglaishun!"

It is worth mentioning that Xu Damao was standing in the middle courtyard and shouting. Although he was standing in front of the corridor connecting the front yard and the middle courtyard, Xu Damao’s voice was too loud!

He Yuzhu, who was cooking at home at the moment, suddenly heard such a shout, and his face twitched like a Pekingese.

Yi Zhonghai, who was waiting for dinner at home, felt even more uncomfortable. Others didn't know, but how could he not know? Most of the money He Yuzhu paid was his pension!

Now Xu Damao is taking the money for treating people to a meal, at least half of which must have belonged to Yi Zhonghai, and this bastard is still going to Donglaishun to eat mutton hotpot!

This was exactly the effect Xu Damao wanted. After shouting, he slowly walked to the door of Li's house.

Li Ming just happened to come out at this moment and saw what happened to Xu Damao just now. He almost burst out laughing.

Xu Damao definitely put eye drops on He Yuzhu on purpose, and even put eye drops on Yi Zhonghai at the same time.

Not to mention anything else, when it comes to targeting He Yuzhu, Xu Damao is really heartbreaking. I will have to tell Xu Damao about Yi Zhonghai's meeting last night later.

Isn't it just asking someone to say something good to He Yuzhu? Li Ming feels that Xu Damao will do the same. At that time, he just hopes that He Yuzhu can hold back for the sake of the three hundred yuan. If he really dares to take action, Li Ming is really afraid that He Yuzhu will have to pay for all his bitter tea seeds!

Dong Lai Shun.

Xu Damao and Li Ming ordered three kilograms of mutton alone, not including other miscellaneous items.

"Wow, in this winter, I have to come to Donglaishun to have a hotpot meal. Other places always seem a little bit inferior."

Xu Damao swallowed a big mouthful of liquid, picked up the soda next to him and took a big gulp.

Li Ming handed a cigarette to Xu Damao at the right time, and then lit one for himself. "That's right, in our city, when it comes to hot pot in winter, Donglaishun is the first choice."

"By the way, Mingzi, when I came out today, I heard that old man Yi Zhonghai had another meeting last night?"

"Yes, that's the truth!"

"What are you talking about? Tell me quickly, brother. I'm so curious!"

Xu Damao looked at Li Ming with a gossipy face. Even if Xu Damao didn't say anything today, Li Ming was going to tell him, not to mention that the host who was treating them tonight had already spoken.

Afterwards, Li Ming repeated to Xu Damao the details of Yi Zhonghai's meeting last night, even telling it to others even though he didn't even hear Yi Zhonghai's fart in the Intermediate Court.

"That old man Yi Zhonghai is still thinking about finding a wife for Sha Zhu! He's not his biological son, but the old man still cares about him!"

Xu Damao immediately stopped eating and started swearing and calling names.

Li Ming took two bites of mutton and said, "In the courtyard, besides Sha Zhu who is really stupid and doesn't understand anything, who else doesn't know that He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu are the candidates for the old man Yi Zhonghai to take care of his old age?"

"Jia Dongxu has no other choice. There is no one capable in his family, and he himself is not motivated. He can only accept such a "father". But He Yuzhu is really stupid."

Li Ming smacked his lips and began to comment. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be such a stupid person, but the problem is that there really is such a stupid person, and right here in the courtyard.

"Well, it's okay. Starting tomorrow, your brother and I will keep an eye on them. We're asking our neighbors to speak well of us. I'll keep talking to them all day long!"

Xu Damao didn't care whether He Yuzhu provided support for Yi Zhonghai in his old age. He just simply disliked these two people.

It can be said that he has such a sincere heart, which is very good.

Li Ming raised his drink bottle and clinked glasses with Xu Damao, "Okay, Brother Damao, if you need any help, just ask! I'll definitely be there!"

"Hehe, that's enough, don't worry, this is just a small matter that doesn't require both of us."

"But next time this bastard attacks me again, you really need to hurry up, brother!"

Although Xu Damao didn't drink today, he already showed signs of complaining. He was probably a little scared after being beaten by He Yuzhu.

"Well, brother Damao, last time it wasn't that I didn't want to hurry over to your brother, but the problem was that after I found out about it in the front yard and rushed to the back yard, you were already lying down."

Li Ming said this with a smile. He was not worried that Xu Damao would be unhappy. After all, this was the fact and the two families were quite far away from each other.

"Brother Damao, if you were in the front yard, I would kick the door open and let you go. Besides, the distance between my front yard and your back yard is really too far."

Xu Damao nodded in agreement. After all, his father had told him clearly that when Li Ming arrived, Xu Damao was already in a state of coma. Besides, if it weren't for Li Ming, Xu Damao would not have been sent to the hospital so quickly.

"Well, brother, I really don't mean to complain. If it weren't for you this time, I don't know when I could get to the hospital."

Xu Damao drank the drink in one gulp as an apology. Li Ming hoped that he could drink as happily next time.

"Next time, next time I will hold your brother accountable a little longer!"

Xu Damao gritted his teeth, as if he had made a great decision, which made Li Ming laugh and cry.

"Brother Damao, you can still look forward to the next time. If this idiot Zhu does something so cruel next time, and I'm in the yard, you should quickly run to the front yard. If I can seize the opportunity to kill him directly, then you can go up and vent your anger!"

Chapter 174 Yi Zhonghai, the art of war!

Xu Damao laughed foolishly. It was because he heard a strong sense of security from Li Ming's words.

"Good brother, don't worry, wait for your brother to give He Yuzhu a three-strike attack on the White Bone Demon!"

Li Ming looked at Xu Damao who was excited alone with a frown on his face, "This is not the three attacks on the White Bone Demon, this is purely the three attacks on He Yuzhu."

Fortunately, He Yuzhu didn't know about the first interference, otherwise He Yuzhu could have given Xu Damao a triple blow.

By the time the two brothers finished their hotpot, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

The two of them then walked towards the courtyard of the steel rolling mill together, still reluctant to leave.

. . . . . .

The steel rolling mill courtyard, front yard.

"Mingzi, I didn't drink today, so you don't have to send me off. I can go back by myself. You should go back to your room as well."

Xu Damao put his arm around Li Ming's shoulders and laughed.

Li Ming nodded. He was not willing to see Xu Damao off, was he? If this guy had not been drunk a few times before, would he really think that he, Li Ming, was willing to walk a few more steps?

"Okay, then I'll go back. I'll keep an eye on Sha Zhu these few days when I have nothing to do. I won't let him finish this blind date peacefully anyway."

"That's right."

Xu Damao was very satisfied with the unified performance of the two. At least they had a tacit understanding when it came to dealing with He Yuzhu. This also showed that He Yuzhu was indeed an unpopular character.

"I'm home!"

Mother Li was the first to see her son, and she felt relieved only after seeing her son return.
