Courtyard House: Starting as an engineer, crushing a yard full of poultry

Page 167

"What happened? Who sent someone to find us just now?"

The supervisors were getting impatient, having to come out on a mission in the middle of the night.

"It's...me..."

Just as everyone was holding their breath, wondering who was so nosy, He Yuzhu looked troubled and slowly raised his hand.

"Idiot Zhu, are you crazy?"

Qin Huairu, who was standing to the side, was completely stunned. Everyone usually said that Sha Zhu was stupid, but she never expected that he would even report himself.

"That kid Sha Zhu must have lost his mind. This is the first time I've ever seen someone call the supervisory team to arrest themselves."

"That can't be right. We've all been watching him. He hasn't left the room at all."

The onlookers were also very puzzled.

"Sister Qin... I saw Bang Geng run out of Xu Damao's house alone, and I also saw you pulling the curtain at his house, so I knew that it must be that kid Xu Damao who bullied you! That's why I just grabbed a kid and went to find the supervision team."

"Yes, yes, that's right! Comrade, Xu Damao was bullying the widow. When I came in, he was tearing off Qin Huairu's clothes!"

He Yuzhu suddenly became defiant, thinking that although he had hit someone, there was a reason for it, and he had even invited the supervisory team himself, so he was probably in a better position.

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, Qin Huairu immediately lost face and awkwardly lowered her head to straighten her clothes.

"That idiot Zhu is really missing a screw; how did I have to run into him again? He's going to ruin my reputation no matter what. (cgcb)"

Qin Huairu has already lost her job due to He Yuzhu's actions, and it's likely that she will never be able to hold her head up in the courtyard again.

"What's going on, Xu Damao? Is what He Yuzhu said true?"

The leader of the inspection team approached Xu Damao and asked.

"Well... if you ask me, I'll definitely say that Qin Huairu and I were mutually consenting!"

Xu Damao pursed his lips, still feeling a little uneasy.

"Xu Damao, have you no shame? Don't you have a mirror at home? Do you not know what you look like? Do you think my sister Qin would willingly be with you? I think you're just asking for a beating!"

"Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, you don't take us seriously at all, do you? You're even going to hit us?"

Seeing He Yuzhu about to rush over and hit Xu Damao again, the leader of the supervision team was very annoyed.

"Don't you believe me? Why don't you ask your sister Qin if she willingly crawled into my bed earlier?"

Xu Damao glanced at Qin Huairu and then raised an eyebrow at the pot where he was stewing braised pork. Qin Huairu was a smart woman; she understood what Xu Damao meant.

"What's going on, Qin Huairu?"

All eyes were fixed on Qin Huairu, especially He Yuzhu and Xu Damao, as this directly determined which of them would be taken away by the supervisory team.

"I...I went with Xu Damao willingly..."

"What? Sister Qin, what are you saying? How is that possible?"

He Yuzhu was dumbfounded and quickly grabbed Qin Huairu's arm. He felt that although Qin Huairu was a widow, she was still very picky about men and would never be so desperate as to follow Xu Damao, that big-faced guy.

"Don't ask, I did it voluntarily."

Qin Huai gritted his teeth and said again with unwavering resolve.

If she admitted that she was forced by Xu Damao, then Xu Damao would inevitably expose the fact that Banggeng had been stolen. Faced with the choice between her own reputation and her son's future, she had no choice but to sacrifice her reputation.

"Well, Sha Zhu, did you understand?"

Xu Damao was very satisfied with Qin Huairu's answer and looked at He Yuzhu with a provocative expression.

Chapter 210 Fainting from Furious

"This time, Sha Zhu has really been tricked by Qin Huairu!"

"Who says otherwise? He calls her 'Sister Qin' all the time, but she doesn't even respect him."

"Widows really have it easy, they can climb into whose bed they want!"

"I really feel sorry for Jia Dongxu. She was pregnant and she was messing around like this. No wonder her mother-in-law doesn't like her."

He Yuzhu stood there, feeling dizzy and disoriented. The people in front of him gradually became blurry, and his ears were filled with echoes. A few seconds later, he finally collapsed to the ground, having fainted from anger.

"This...this...Quick, someone help me up! How did he suddenly faint!"

He Yuzhu was so large and bulky that it took the combined efforts of the supervisors and several strong young neighbors to carry him back to their home.

"This kid's faking it, isn't he? Don't think that just because you fainted, it's all over!"

"Comrade! Brother! We can't let him get away like this!"

Xu Damao was naturally unhappy that He Yuzhu would be taken away by the supervisory team, but this unexpected turn of events made him unhappy.

"Xu Damao, what are you yelling about? Can't you see he's already passed out?"

The team leader was so annoyed by the trivial matters in their courtyard that he was about to leave when Xu Damao called him back.

"He's just passed out, not dead. Does that mean I took all that beating for nothing?"

"If you ask me, that kid He Yuzhu is definitely faking it. He thinks that everything will be fine after a good night's sleep!"

"Look at me! I can't even stand up now. He broke all the valves on my body. How can you not stand up for me?!"

"So many people saw this today. If you don't do anything about it, our area will be in big trouble. This kid will ruin the whole atmosphere!"

Xu Damao kept chattering away.

"I have a basic understanding of the situation today, but he is currently unconscious, and it is getting late with so many people watching, so it is not convenient to resolve the issue."

"How about this, tomorrow when he wakes up, you all come to me together to solve the problem."

"Um... Qin Huairu, right? You should come along too."

After saying that, the inspection team left first, and the onlookers, seeing that there was no more excitement, all went home to rest.

"Huai Ru! Don't go yet!"

Seeing Qin Huairu hanging his head and preparing to go home with the crowd, Xu Damao shouted again.

"What are you doing, Xu Damao? You've already lost control of your bladder and bowels and you're still thinking about doing bad things. You've made me lose face all night!"

Qin Huairu said in a fit of exasperation.

"It's that brainless idiot Zhu who embarrassed you, not me."

"Damn it, if it weren't for this kid, we could have just pulled the curtains closed and gotten into bed, and none of this mess would have happened!"

"Now look what's happened, I can't do anything and I've broken a few parts of myself. Help me to bed first."

After being brutally beaten by He Yuzhu, Xu Damao had basically lost the ability to take care of himself. But even so, when Qin Huairu helped him up, his eyes couldn't help but wander over her.

"Is that alright? Can I go home now?"

"Okay, but you have to keep an eye on Sha Zhu for me. Don't let that rascal get away. Remember to pick me up early tomorrow morning so we can go to the supervisory team together!"

"I don't care."

"You don't care, huh? Fine, then tomorrow I'll bring your dog along, and we'll get to the supervisory team and sort this out properly."

·· ·····Requesting flowers·· ·

"You... fine, I'll come find you when I wake up tomorrow morning."

Having been caught red-handed by Xu Damao, Qin Huairu had no choice but to obey his orders. He could only be at ease once he resolved the matter by tomorrow.

"Brother Dong, I'll go straight to the factory tomorrow morning. I've already prepared breakfast for you; you can just heat it up when you get up tomorrow."

In just over half an hour since returning home, Yu Li not only served Li Xiangdong dinner, but also prepared breakfast for the next day in advance.

It was precisely because of Yu Li's care that Li Xiangdong was able to free up more time and energy to think about things at the factory.

"Thank you for your hard work. Once I finish the recent projects at the factory, let's get married right away."

Li Xiangdong, who was studying the machinery under the lamplight, stood up and gently patted Yu Li's head. He knew that Yu Li ran back and forth every day simply to avoid being gossiped about by the people in the courtyard.

"It's okay, Dong-ge. I'm not tired. As long as I can take good care of you, I'm willing to do anything."

Yu Li gently kissed Li Xiangdong on the cheek before taking her bag and leaving.

...

At five o'clock in the morning, He Yuzhu was suddenly awakened from his sleep, his forehead covered in sweat.

In his dream, he fled in panic, only to be surrounded and intercepted by seven or eight members of the supervisory team, preparing to begin his prison life.

After regaining his senses, the events of the previous night gradually became clear in his mind. If he remembered correctly, he had smashed Xu Damao's house to pieces yesterday, and Xu Damao was also covered in injuries and collapsed on the ground.

"Maybe... we should go into hiding? Things have gotten this big; we might go to jail..."

He Yuzhu didn't dare to think too much. He quickly got up, dressed, and prepared to run away before dawn.

Chapter 211 The Escape Plan Falls Through

I wanted to just run away, but then I remembered the dream I had last night about being chased, and I realized this was going to be a long battle.

He casually picked up a cloth bag, stuffed it with a few changes of clothes and steamed buns from the kitchen, and then took the money He Yushui had given him from under his pillow, completely unaware that one bill was missing.

"Hey, Shazhu, where are you headed?"

Just as He Yuzhu stepped out of the room, he was stopped by Xu Damao's familiar voice, which startled him so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.
