Scholars in the courtyard

In the middle of the yard, Qin Jingru was sitting on a long stool, wearing a small flower coat and looking proud.

He even looked at the people around him, looking like he was not afraid of trouble.

During the day today, she thought about whether the ruins next door were empty. She hadn't seen anyone from the street office come to clean them up for so long, and no one had moved into the courtyard. In addition, she saw that Yang Xiaotao had a yard at home, and there were a lot of things growing there. When the fruits and vegetables have grown, they can be eaten at any time.

I heard people in the courtyard say that the pak choi is white and tender, and that the tomatoes, cucumbers, and melons are delicious.

And the aroma of scrambled eggs with leeks.

So Qin Jingru decided to look at the ruins next door.

I got up in the morning and went for a walk, took a break at noon, and then started to clean up the ruins when the weather warmed up.

Unexpectedly, nothing happened at first, and the second aunt came out to ask what she was doing, but she didn't care. Anyway, the one close to them was enough. When the second aunt wanted the other side, she could do whatever she wanted, so she made her plan. said.

The second aunt didn't say anything, but as evening approached, Yan Fugui led the third aunt over aggressively, looking stern.

He told her a lot of truth, and then turned around and threw back what he had packed away.

He said that this belongs to the public, even if it is ruins, every piece of grass, wood, brick and tile belongs to the public. His behavior is to dig up the public land and take advantage of the public, which is a serious and shameful act of vandalism.

This severe criticism frightened her, and a hospital-wide meeting was held to criticize her.

You can say that you don't want to be soft, but in your heart you are really panicking.

Looking at the people around her pointing and pointing, she used to be a bystander and found it interesting to criticize others.

But when it comes to myself, sitting here being ignored, I feel uncomfortable all over.

Now, she just hopes that Xu Damao will come back soon.

At this time, other people in the yard were sitting or standing watching the excitement, and many people were cracking melon seeds in great anticipation.

Many people in the courtyard looked down upon Qin Jingru and Xu Damao.

In other words, a little jealous.

Especially Xu Damao, who somehow got lucky and had a child. God was really blind.

Such people should be extinct.

It just so happened that Uncle Yan was going to show off his power this time, and they were happy to do so.

On the side, Qin Huairu was sitting with Xiaodang and Auntie in her arms. Seeing Qin Jingru's look, not only did she not feel sympathy, but she felt a little happy.

The only reason is that Qin Jingru has done such a good job. Now that she is living a good life, she turns against others and tries to please others when it was needed. Now when she needs help, she turns her eyelids upward and cannot see what's underneath. people.

"Deserve it!"

Qin Huairu whispered, brushing the hair beside her ears with her fingers, feeling that the flesh on her face had lost two ounces, and she felt happy.

I weighed my chest without leaving any trace, and there was nothing missing, which is a good thing.

‘Si Zhu must like this look! ’

Thinking about it in his mind, he didn't notice anything strange about Jia Zhang next to him.

This afternoon I heard that Qin Jingru was digging up the land of the deaf old lady's house. Jia Zhang's heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself, what is Qin Jingru digging for no reason?

It's a lie to say it's farming.

He must be looking for a baby as much as she is.

She also had basis for this. She saw Qin Jingru going to a restaurant yesterday, where she ate white-flour steamed buns and meat.

He doesn't feel bad about spending money lavishly, he must be rich.

Where did this money come from?

Part of it must belong to Xu Damao or the Hi Xu family, but the other part must be an unexpected windfall.

As the saying goes, a horse will not be fat without night grass, and a man will not be rich without windfall.

Her house is separated from the old lady by a wall, so there must be something fishy going on.

Jia Zhang felt that this was the case. Qin Jingru was digging for treasures under the guise and thought others didn't know.

He had a sneer on his face, but he was nervous mentally.

Fortunately, the third aunt found out early in the afternoon, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get the 'wealth' alone?

Jia Zhang glanced at Qin Jingru, with a confident look on her face, and mentally snorted, "Want to eat alone?" dream! ’

Ahem

"Who else isn't here?"

Yan Fugui looked at the sky. In the middle courtyard, Yang Xiaotao was not at home. Yi Zhonghai, the idiot, was assigned again. Only Wang Dashan's house had lights on in the courtyard, so Yan Fugui sat in a corner. Many people around him were still there. Carrying a kerosene lamp.

"Director Yang has returned to the village."

Xiao Liu shouted at the side, and Yan Fugui nodded quickly after hearing this, "It's okay, Xiao Tao is busy, so there is no need to trouble him with this little thing."

Everyone laughed.

"Xu Damao hasn't come back yet."

"Xu Damao? Forget it, it won't be a big deal if he is missing. Let's talk about this mainly today."

"Hey, what do you mean it's no big deal, Uncle Yan, do you ever say that?"

Qin Jingru was unhappy when she heard that. She was counting on Xu Damao to come back to support her.

"Hmph, a prisoner in a labor camp has to stand aside even after he comes back. What's the difference if he's one more and he's less?"

Unexpectedly, Yan Fugui was so direct and merciless that Qin Jingru couldn't react for a moment and shouted out, "You, you are talking nonsense."

boom!

However, Yan Fugui suddenly raised a row of tables, and the enamel jars on them trembled twice.

"Qin Jingru, you come from a rural area and you don't even know the difference between good and bad. Do you really think you're a figure by following Xu Damao?"

"You are still talking nonsense. Please ask your neighbors. Is a prisoner of labor reform qualified to speak here?"

"Ask me, this hospital can accommodate a reform-through-labor prisoner like him because the leaders of the steel rolling mill are kind and Comrade Xiaotao ignores past grudges. Otherwise, you would have been kicked out of the hospital long ago. You are still here talking nonsense. , have you ever been to school? Do you know that you respect your teachers?"

"You, you~~"

In terms of words, Qin Jingru, who came from the countryside, was good at quarreling and cursing, but when it came to truth and scolding, ten of her could not keep up with one Yan Fugui.

"Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about?"

Outside the yard, a person ran in through the hanging flower door, and it was Xu Damao who had returned in a hurry.

"Yan Laoxi, are you fucking crazy?"

"If you dare to bully my wife, you will be unhappy, right?"

Xu Damao rushed over aggressively and ran directly to him.

Yan Fugui sat there calmly, "Xu Damao, you have no place to speak here, go ahead."

"You, Yan Laoxi, don't be so shameless and forget who it was that flattered me before? Who did you give those little mushrooms and mountain chestnuts to? You fed the dog, so you should be grateful."

"Yan Laoxi, let me tell you, people don't have flowers that last forever, and I, Xu Damao, will always turn around one day. Don't go too far."

Xu Damao roared angrily, but Yan Fugui in front of him still sat calmly.

He neither denied nor defended what Xu Damao said, but looked at him quietly, and even picked up the enamel jar and took a sip.

"Yan Fugui, you are pretending to be deaf, you..."

boom

"Xu Damao, I told you, you have no place to speak here."

Yan Fugui slammed the jar onto the table, and then said seriously, "Don't forget, you are a reform-through-labor prisoner. Do you want to go to the street office and tell me that if you don't obey the management of the compound, a few more months will be added?"

"you"

"You Yan Laoxi, you"

Xu Damao was angry and annoyed, pointing at Yan Fugui and speechless.

"What are you doing? I'm telling you Xu Damao, don't think that you can show off just because you have earned some money. Remember, personal style issues are long-term issues that require constant supervision by comrades."

Xu Damao's face turned green when he heard about the issue of personal style, especially in front of his wife. His long face was straightened, his head was tilted, his eyes were not eyes, and his nose was not a nose.

If Yan Jiecheng and the people around him hadn't looked at him with eager eyes, he...

"Also, as a reform-through-labour prisoner, you must have an attitude of repentance and the consciousness of serving the people. Don't make noises all day without knowing what is good or bad."

"Can you reform like this?"

Xu Damao's chest was beating and he felt like he was going to explode with anger. Qin Jingru behind him was about to step forward to help when he heard someone shouting from around him. When Yan Fugui heard that it was Wang Dashan, his face became calmer.

"That's right, a prisoner in a labor camp, what right does he have to scream here? Get out of here."

"Yes, I really think I'm an onion. I don't even know how much it weighs..."

"That is, if he dares to act arrogant, he will be kicked out. It is best to fire him as a worker and let him go back to farming."

"You're just with Qin Jingru, go back."

For a moment, the scene was filled with anger.

In an instant, the people around him were denounced.

In an instant, Xu Damao's face turned pale.

Qin Jingru was also dumbfounded, realizing for the first time what a mistake it was to marry a prisoner with a style problem and a reform-through-labour prisoner.

At this moment, the couple lowered their heads and felt uneasy.

Next to her, Qin Huairu hugged Xiaodang tightly, feeling suddenly confused.

If he follows Shazhu from now on, what will Bangge and the three of them do?

With a stepfather who is a prisoner in a labor camp, how will he go to school and work in the future? How to start a family?

But, if there were no silly pillars, would their family be able to survive until they grow up?

With reality on one side and the future on the other, Qin Huairu's fingers were also clenched together, struggling.

Similarly, the aunt on the side was not in a good state of mind. She became a labor reform prisoner in old age, and her life was in vain.

Yan Fugui glanced at the two of them and sneered, "Today's meeting is about one thing."

"Qin Jingru, if you want to touch the house in the backyard, no one is allowed to touch it without the consent of the street office."

"Qin Jingru, this is the first time and the last time. Do you understand?"

Qin Jingru lowered her head and raised it, but Yan Fugui was not polite and said, "It's good to know. This courtyard is not like your country. You can just dig some soil and no one will care about it."

"Every inch of land in this courtyard belongs to the state, and you can't just dig it out if you want."

Yan Fugui spoke again and then waved his hand, "Okay, I've been busy all day. I'm sorry to trouble you all for such a small thing. Come back, come back."

Xu Damao raised his head and glanced at Yan Fugui, then looked at the people around him. He wanted to kick them all to death. However, a good man will not suffer the consequences of his immediate losses. Thirty years to the east of Hedong, thirty years to the west of Hexi, one day he Xu Damao will stand up, and he will always stand up. One day his son will become the pride of this courtyard.

"Yan Laoxi, you'd better not beg me in the future. Let's go!"

After saying that, he pulled Qin Jingru, who was in despair, towards the backyard.

When everyone was almost gone, Yan Jiecheng asked cautiously, "Dad, you have offended Xu Damao to death."

"I'm sorry, boss, you haven't seen the situation in this hospital clearly yet?"

"Situation? What situation?"

Yan Fugui picked up the enamel jar and stroked his glasses, "Do you think Yang Xiaotao will get along with Xu Damao?"

"Who? Xu Damao? Why does Yang Xiaotao like him?"

"That's fine, as long as we are right and reasonable, Yang Xiaotao is on our side. Do you think there is no need to be afraid of him, Xu Damao?"

"Worrying is unfounded."

Watching Yan Fugui leave, Yu Li, who was behind him, stepped forward and pushed Yan Jiecheng, "Dad did the right thing. This is called taking advantage of the situation."

"oh!"

…

In the backyard, Xu Damao sat on a stool with an unhappy look on his face, "You said you had nothing to do, why are you tinkering with it? That's the enemy's land. Wouldn't it be fun for you to go there?"

Qin Jingru lowered her head, "I just want to find a piece of land and grow something like Yang Xiaotao."

"You, forget it, stop talking."

Speaking of Yang Xiaotao, Xu Damao felt powerless.

This guy is more difficult to deal with than Silly Zhu. He is not only ruthless but also evil-minded, and he has suffered a lot.

"Go to sleep and stay away from the affairs of the courtyard from now on."

"This group of people are just greedy for our lives and feel uncomfortable. Don't worry about them."

Xu Damao glanced at Qin Jingru, but still couldn't bear to say, and asked Qin Jingru to rest.

After the two of them washed up, they were just lying on the bed when Xu Damao suddenly sat up.

"My roast duck is broken!"
