After lunch, Yang Yue sent He Yuzhu out. Without the Yang family around, He Yuzhu dared to hold Yang Yue's hand and ask her how she was doing.
Yang Yue lowered her head and gave He Yuzhu a push." It should be good. I'll go back and ask my parents about it."”
"You should check it out properly. If your parents don't object, I'll invite someone over to ask about the wedding date."”
Yang Yue's ears turned red from embarrassment when she heard that. She said angrily,""That's not even close. Why are you talking about the wedding date?”
He Yuzhu said happily," Such a beautiful wife. I dream of marrying her every day. The dawn of victory is right in front of me. Of course, I have to pursue it."”
Yang Yue couldn't take it anymore. She turned around and ran back. When she opened the door, she saw her sister-in-law and mother, who were leaning against each other. They must be talking about He Yuzhu, who had just left. She was already shy, so not only her ears, but her face also turned red.
When Mother Yang saw Yang Yue come in, she smiled and waved."Come over quickly. I told your sister-in-law just now that this Comrade Little He is really not bad. The two of you have known each other for a few months. You have also gone to his house to take a look.
I'll look for my friends here and ask around from the Red Star Rolling Mill and Imperial University. If your character is really good and there's room for improvement in the future, the two of you will officially settle down.”
"Comrade Little He is twenty years old this year, and you are also eighteen. Men and women should get married when they are of age. If you meet an outstanding young man, don't miss it. I was eighteen when I married your dad.”
Yang Yue's sister-in-law was a military doctor, and her father and Yang Yue's father were old comrades-in-arms. At this moment, she also said to Yang Yue,"I also think that this young man is not bad. He's capable, cultured, and his family is relatively simple.”
Yang Yue blushed and ran into her room to close the door, acting like an ostrich.
He Yuzhu rode the bike proudly and hummed all the way home. However, when he returned to the courtyard house and entered, his happy mood was ruined. He saw Jia Zhang-shi standing with her hands on her hips like a teapot, pointing at Xu Damao and cursing.
Jia Dongxu, who was standing behind her, had a bruised eye and a swollen cheek. His face was covered in blood, and there were many footprints on his body. He glared at Xu Damao with a dirty face.
Xu Damao covered his lower back with a scratch on his face. He was hiding behind Second Uncle's bangs and defending himself.
He Yuzhu listened for a while before understanding what was going on. It turned out that Xu Damao had been beaten up by Jia Dongxu a while ago, so he planned this revenge.
He found three helpers to follow behind him. When Qin Huairu came out to use the bathroom, he went up to her and told her that it was unintentional the last time and that he wanted her to explain to Jia Dongxu.
Jia Dongxu, who had returned from behind, thought that Xu Damao was pestering Qin Huiru. He rushed forward and kicked Xu Damao to the ground. Xu Damao's three helpers, who were following behind, rushed forward and started punching and kicking Jia Dongxu.
By the time the people in the hospital came out to stop him, Jia Dongxu's face was already swollen and bloody. He looked terrible.
Xu Damao's three helpers didn't run away either. They just said that they saw a person rushing over and beating Xu Damao for no reason. As friends, they helped Xu Damao. Wasn't this normal?
Xu Damao also said that he was just explaining to Qin Huairu and asked her to help him tell Jia Dongxu that it was better to let go of enemies than to keep them. He did not do anything and was kicked. He did not know what happened after that. He was knocking his head and feeling dizzy.
Jia Zhangshi saw that her son was beaten up, and she couldn't do it. She rushed up and scratched Xu Damao's face. Xu Damao's face was scratched, and he quickly ran to the second uncle to seek justice.
Jia Zhangshi didn't give face to the second uncle. She was still cursing in the courtyard, demanding compensation from Xu Damao, medical fees, and nutrition fees.
Liu Haizhong couldn't argue with Jia Zhangshi. He was so angry that his lips were trembling. He kept shouting for a general meeting to solve the problem.
Then, he asked his sons Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian to invite First Master Yi Zhonghai and Third Master Yan Bugui to come over and prepare for a full-court meeting to solve the problem. To be honest, Liu Haizhong was a little afraid of Jia Zhangshi.
Speaking of which, as long as there was a meeting of the whole courtyard, nine out of ten times it would be related to the Jia and Zhang families. This old woman was the source of trouble in the courtyard. Oh, right, she couldn't be called an old woman at this time. That fellow wasn't even forty-five years old at this time.
Yi Zhonghai originally wanted Jia Dongxu to retire, but he hated Jia Zhangshi very much. Now, he felt that Jia Dongxu was irresponsible and could not support the family. It was probably not easy to rely on him to retire. A few days ago, she had a drink with He Yuzhu, and their relationship had improved a lot, so she looked down on Jia Dongxu even more.
In the entire Jia family, Qin Huairu was the only one who looked decent. Although she was from the countryside, she was filial and capable. She would still care about her face when she spoke and did things, and she would not be like Jia Zhangshi, who would make a scene at every turn.
It was a meeting of the whole courtyard, which meant that everyone in the courtyard would watch Xu Damao and Jia Zhangshi fight each other. Since no one could control Jia Zhangshi when she was throwing a tantrum, they would curse, curse, cry, or even scratch. Most of the neighbors in the courtyard were mainly watching the fun, so they would never dare to go up and control it.
Jia Zhangshi saw that the few old men did not speak up for Xu Damao at this time, so she became even more insatiable and demanded that Xu Damao compensate Jia Dongxu with ten yuan for medical expenses.
Xu Damao asked the three masters to make decisions for him. He even said that if he couldn't solve it in the courtyard, he would go to the street office to judge.
Yi Zhonghai saw that if this matter really got to the subdistrict office, not only would the courtyard be ranked as the first courtyard this year, but the entire area would also know that the few of them who were selected could not convince the public and could not manage the courtyard well. If someone else was to manage it, they would really have no place to put their faces.
It had to be said that Xu Damao had grasped the seven inches of the masters. Yi Zhonghai valued his prestige in the institute the most. He felt that he was a technical expert in the rolling mill, and he should be a man of his word when he returned to the institute.
Liu Haizhong, the second uncle, was an official fanatic. He could not even be a team leader in the rolling mill. It was not easy for him to become a manager in the Siheyuan. This was what he was proud of. If he really lost his management rights, the blow to Liu Haizhong was unimaginable.
The Third Master, Yan Bugui, had a low salary and a large family. After he became a manager, although the street office did not provide any subsidies, there would always be some hidden benefits during the holidays. Sometimes, he would bring back some melon seeds and peanuts when he went to meetings. If he was really beaten, Yan Bugui would definitely not accept it.
In the blink of an eye, the three old men had the same idea and aimed their guns at Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu.
Yi Zhonghai said," Dongxu, the last time Xu Damao fell, you said that he harassed your wife, but he hit her and broke the glass. This matter can't always be turned over and over again.
Putting everything else aside, you have to consider your wife's reputation. Qin Huairu just got married not long ago, and she's still a new daughter-in-law. If you keep saying that your wife has been taken advantage of by others, you'll lose face too.”
Liu Haizhong said," You've been doing well in the workshop recently. Your master has also mentioned that he'll give you more work and strive to get you more overtime pay. When he told me last time, I was worried that you had a lot of things to do at home and had to come back on time at night.
If you can sort out all these messy things this time, you can work in peace in the future. You can get an extra two yuan a month and eat more meat.”
Yan Bugui said," You and Xu Damao can't always talk about this. How about this? The two of you can sign a settlement agreement. Last time, you were impulsive and hit Xu Damao, so you had to compensate Damao with one yuan. This time, Damao's friend hit you without knowing the reason, so he has to compensate you with two yuan."
You two promise not to fight anymore. You two are not the only ones in this courtyard. If you fight each other day by day, the other neighbors will also be affected.”
Yan Bugui was indeed a teacher. He had more tricks up his sleeve than Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, who dealt with iron lumps all day long. The first thing he thought about was how to shirk responsibility.
As long as they got the settlement agreement, the next time the two of them fought, even if it went to the street office, the stewards of the courtyard would have the settlement agreement in their hands. It would prove that they had at least done their job. Moreover, the mediation was successful. Then, the stewards would not have any responsibility.
When Jia Zhangshi heard that there was two yuan to take, and that Second Uncle had promised to put in a good word for Jia Dongxu in the factory, she pushed Jia Dongxu to agree.
Yi Zhonghai then said to Xu Damao," Although your friends may not have figured out what happened before they attacked, they still beat Jia Dongxu up badly. If it really gets out of hand, you and your friends will be in trouble. It's good for both your families to take two yuan and end it."”
Xu Damao naturally had nothing to say. He knew very well that this time, he had deliberately set up a trap and brought three people to beat Jia Dongxu up. He was also very ruthless. He had made up for all the losses he had suffered in the past few times.
The last time he got one yuan, he didn't mind throwing two yuan at him this time. The most important thing was that he could vent his anger.
Generally speaking, the conflicts in the courtyard house were resolved by the people in the courtyard house. It was against the rules for Xu Damao to find outsiders to help him beat people up.
However, Xu Damao had completely let himself go now. His parents in the West District could not control him, so he did things without any fear.
The two of them signed and pressed their fingerprints on the settlement agreement drafted by Third Uncle, promising not to fight with each other in the future.
Xu Damao took out a pile of coins from his pocket and took out two yuan. He threw it to Jia Dongxu. He didn't care if he caught it or not. It fell to the ground with a clang. Jia Zhangshi cursed as she bent down to pick it up.
Jia Dongxu glared at Xu Damao with a livid face, but Xu Damao whistled indifferently and walked proudly to the backyard.
He Yuzhu did not speak throughout the meeting. He was just watching the show. As someone who had read the original novel, he knew that there were not many good people in this courtyard house. There were more hypocrites and true villains.
Of course, the original Silly Pillar was not a good person. Even though he was the main character in the TV series, others commented that he was a compassionate, helpful, and kind-hearted person.
However, Silly Zhu had also caused a lot of trouble in the courtyard house, beating people up and stealing things. Although he was pitiful, he was also hateful.
