"No, you go on eating, I've already eaten, haha"
Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, Yu Li swallowed greedily. But she is not as thick-skinned as Yan Jiecheng. She really dares to sit down and eat with Liu Guangqi and the others.
"Have you really eaten? We are all our own people, so don't be polite."
Liu Guangqi said politely.
"I've really eaten. You guys can eat while I wait here."
Yu Li took two steps back and made way for Liu Qiufang to serve the food. Although she said she had eaten, when she saw the pickled fish served by Liu Qiufang, Yu Li's stomach felt unsatisfactory. It rang.
No matter how loud the sound was, the adults in the room could hear it clearly. Yu Li's little face turned red instantly. If she hadn't been on a mission, she would have covered her face and ran away.
"After you've eaten, let's eat some more. We can't eat here while you watch from the side. What's that like?"
Liu Guangqi looked at Yu Li's bright red face and said with a smile.
No wonder Shazhu would take Yu Li as the standard for marrying a wife. There are so many women in the courtyard. If you want to ask whose woman has the temperament of a little daughter-in-law the most, it must be Yu Li. She combs her hair and wears flowers. Wearing a cotton-padded jacket and large cotton trousers, with both hands tucked into the sleeves, she looked like a standard little daughter-in-law. Although it's not particularly gorgeous, it just looks very comfortable.
Before Yan Jiecheng was much better than Yu Li, Liu Guangqi had thought about intercepting Yu Li, but there were too many women around him, so Liu Guangqi had no choice but to give up the idea, which gave Yan Jiecheng an advantage.
Even now, when Liu Guangqi sees Yu Li, he will occasionally feel a little moved. Of course, this little heartbeat is not enough to drive Liu Guangqi to do anything he shouldn't do. It is purely about appreciating beautiful things.
"No, I really don't need it. I'm just here to borrow a bicycle. How can I eat from your house?"
Yu Li declined again.
"It's okay to borrow a bicycle. I'll let Guang Qi push it over in a moment. You sit down and have something to eat first."
"There's really no need. Since you agreed, sister-in-law, I'll go back first."
"Don't leave."
Faced with Liu Guangqi and Qin Huairu's kind invitation to stay, Yu Li, who was too embarrassed to stay any longer, could only leave Liu Guangqi's house as if running for her life.
"Look at you, your eyes are almost on my body."
After Yu Li left, Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Liu Guangqi and stepped hard on Liu Guangqi's foot.
"How can I not? I just took a look at it. Don't talk nonsense in front of the child."
Liu Guangqi defended himself with a wry smile.
"Whether it is, you know in your heart."
Chen Xueru, who was standing by, also took the opportunity to insult Liu Guangqi.
"Oh, I'll go, forget it, I won't eat at the main office."
Feeling targeted, Liu Guangqi put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked outside.
"It's so urgent. This person was busy delivering the car just after he left. You like her so much, why didn't you bring her into your home?"
"What nonsense are you talking about in front of the children?"
Liu Guangqi, who felt that Qin Huairu's mood was not right, frowned.
"You know whether it's nonsense or not."
"I'm too lazy to talk to you. Don't wait for me tonight. I'll go sleep at the old lady's place."
…
"Why are you doing laundry so late?"
Liu Guangqi, who didn't understand why Qin Huairu was angry, pushed the car to the courtyard and handed the bicycle to Yu Li. After arriving in the middle courtyard, I found Liang Ladi sitting at the faucet with a big basin, washing clothes.
"There are so many children, and they have nothing to wear if they are not washed. I have to go to work during the day, so how can I find time to wash them? Why are you here?"
Liang Ladi stretched out her arm to wipe the sweat from her head. After taking a deep breath, she continued to rub it.
"Didn't the old lady fall? I'll go up there and keep watch tonight."
"You can wash all these clothes with cold water at my house. I have hot water at home so your hands won't freeze."
Liu Guangqi looked at Liang Ladi's red hands that were frozen and said.
"No, your family member isn't angry with you."
Liang Ladi looked around and saw that everyone in the middle courtyard was busy eating, so she lowered her voice and asked.
"How did you know she was angry?"
Liu Guangqi asked curiously.
"She recognized me when she came over to give your sister-in-law something today."
As soon as Liang Ladi said this, Liu Guangqi immediately understood what was going on. No wonder Qin Huairu was so angry tonight. She probably thought he was the one who brought Liang Ladi here, so she was angry. There is a limit to people's patience, and Qin Huairu's limit is the few women in the courtyard. This is one of the reasons why Liu Guangqi would rather spend some money to buy a house outside than place them in a courtyard.
"It's okay. You'll get used to it. Just coax it. You should go to bed early and just wash yourself. It doesn't matter if the boy is a little dirty. You can't wear it for two days and it will be covered in dirt again."
Liu Guangqi gave some instructions and walked towards the backyard.
…
In the middle of the night, Liu Guangqi, who was sleeping in a daze, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach. Seeing that the back door was about to be lost, Guan Guangqi immediately got up from the small bed and ran towards the alley toilet while holding his stomach.
As soon as Liu Guangqi ran to the gate, he suddenly remembered that there was a toilet in his own space. He patted his forehead and jumped directly into the space. After solving the three urgent needs, Liu Guangqi left the space with ease.
As soon as he walked out of the gate, Liu Guangqi saw a sneaky figure squatting in the corner and messing around. Liu Guangqi originally thought about giving the opponent a sap, but just as he was about to take action, he suddenly remembered that the guy in front of him couldn't be Silly Zhu. Then Liu Guangqi lowered his head and took a closer look, and it turned out that it was actually this guy Silly Zhu.
"This wheel is difficult to remove. Do you need my help?"
After confirming that it was not an outsider, Liu Guangqi put away his stick and walked behind Silly Zhu and asked in a low voice.
"No, just watch. I'll take it off in less than two minutes."
"Eh yo"
"It's you, Guangqi, you scared me to death. Why are you walking silently?"
Shazhu, who turned around, was startled and let out a sigh of relief when he saw that the person behind him was Liu Guangqi.
"You should be lucky, if I hadn't recognized you, you would really be dead."
Liu Guangqi waved a wooden stick thicker than a rolling pin in his hand.
"What are you doing? Why do you want to step down from being the third uncle?"
Although he knew why Silly Zhu did what he did, Liu Guangqi still asked.
"Why, because the third uncle is not authentic. We agreed to introduce Mr. Ran from Bangge's school to me as a target, and we collected the things. But, it's been more than a week, and there's not even a reply. Today, I asked Banggeng to ask, and guess what, the old guy, the third uncle, didn’t mention this matter to Teacher Renran at all. Guangqi, please comment, did the third uncle do this unethically? , should I take the wheel off his wheel?"
"I introduce things to you and you can also collect things. I've introduced so many people to you, but I haven't seen you give me anything. On the contrary, I've added a lot to them."
Liu Guangqi naturally knew that what Yan Bugui did was unreasonable, but this did not mean that Sha Zhu's current approach was correct.
"You, don't say this, just say whether what the third uncle is doing is authentic or not."
Hearing Liu Guangqi's words, Silly Zhu blushed for a rare moment, but this embarrassment was quickly forgotten by him.
“It’s really not authentic, but”
"That's not true. I know you are the most sensible person in our courtyard. With your words, I feel relieved."
After saying this, Silly Zhu squatted down and continued busy, without even hearing the second half of Liu Guangqi's sentence.
"You, wish yourself well."
Seeing that Silly Zhu couldn't listen, Liu Guangqi didn't say anything more. Anyway, Yi Zhonghai wiped his ass in the end, so it wasn't his turn to worry.
"No, there's a thief in our courtyard."
After bidding farewell to Silly Zhu and returning to the old lady's place, before Liu Guangqi fell asleep, Yan Bugui's howling suddenly sounded outside.
"Guang Qi, wake up, something seems to be lost in this yard. Go back quickly and see if there is anything missing in our yard."
Liu Guangqi didn't want to get up, but Liu's mother slammed the door loudly. Liu Guangqi could only get up.
"What's going on? Is it on fire?"
The old lady asked in a loud voice after being woken up.
"It's okay, don't worry about it, I'll go out and take a look. You can go on sleeping."
After comforting the old lady, Liu Guangqi put on his coat and walked out. Compared with just now, the sky was much brighter now, and the sky was already turning white.
"what's up."
By the time Liu Guangqi arrived at the front yard, people from each household were getting dressed and rushing over.
"Oops, Lao Yi, Lao Liu, we have a thief in our yard. Quickly check to see if anything at home has been lost. Look at my bicycle. The wheels have been removed."
Yan Bugui said, patting his thigh.
"It's true."
"I have to go back and take a look."
"Ezi, look to see if there's anything wrong with our bicycle. Has the wheel been removed?"
The people in the courtyard immediately ran towards their homes as soon as they saw it. People with bicycles also ran back to check on their cars.
"It seems that we need to strengthen our precautions. This gate will have to be locked at night from now on. Do you know when this wheel was lost? Third uncle."
Yi Zhonghai asked, looking at the wheels disappearing on the bicycle.
"How did I know? It was fine when I locked it last night. I just got up to go to the bathroom, and when I walked to the screen wall and looked at it, I saw where my bicycle was. At first I I didn’t pay attention to it, but when I looked carefully, someone had already removed the wheels from the cart. Do you think this person is immoral or not?”
Yan Bugui complained angrily.
"It's quite wicked, but I think this person must be out of his mind. Why not push the car away if he has the time to remove the wheels?"
"puff"
Hearing Liang Ladi's words, Liu Guangqi couldn't help laughing, and she really guessed it right. The person who did this really has a bad mind.
"What are you talking about? You think it's not enough for me to lose a wheel, and you want me to pay for the whole car. You are too evil-minded."
When Yan Bugui was in a bad mood, Liang Ladi's words pierced his lungs and directly spread his resentment on Liang Ladi.
"Am I evil-minded? I would like to remind you that you actually think this way, but you are really treating your kindness like a donkey's liver and lungs."
"Who are you calling a donkey? I think our cart wheel was stolen by your family. Nothing has been lost in this courtyard for many years. Your family has only been here a few days. Our cart wheel was lost. It must be related to your family."
"Third uncle, what do you mean by this? Are you bullying our newcomer?"
At this moment, Liang Ladi finally understood what Liu Guangqi had said. She was obviously just a theatergoer, but she ended up being targeted just because of one sentence.
"Who bullied you? What I said is true. Nothing has been lost in the courtyard for many years. Your family has only been here for a few days and my wheel has been lost. Everyone thinks it is suspicious or not. Moreover, you have four children who only rely on you to make money. Maybe it was your children who did it and exchanged it for money."
"Maybe it's something. Let me tell you, even though I'm a woman, I earn much more than you. I earn sixty yuan a month by myself."
"Who are you, little girl? Why are you so rude? Our Lao Yan has been an elder in this courtyard for many years. This is your attitude."
The third aunt put on her clothes and walked out. She heard Liang Ladi's dissatisfied accusation.
"What's wrong with me talking like this?"
"First Master, Second Master, look at her attitude. I seriously suspect that the loss of our bicycle wheel has something to do with her. I request a hospital-wide meeting to find out the truth of the matter."
Yan Bugui looked at Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong said.
"This matter,"
"Bah, there's no way you can blackmail me. I'm telling you, don't mention any bullshit hospital-wide meeting to me. It won't work. If you can, call the police."
Liang Ladi could tell at a glance that Yan Bugui wanted to put the blame on her own family through the general meeting of the hospital and ask her family to compensate for the losses of their representatives. She won't be fooled.
"Lao Yi, Lao Liu, you have all seen it. She has a guilty conscience. If she doesn't feel so guilty, why doesn't she dare to hold a general meeting of the hospital?"
"That's right. Why don't you dare to hold a general meeting of the hospital?"
Hearing Yan Bugui's shouting, Yan Jiefang also started shouting.
"Okay, Third Master, do you have any evidence? Just call a meeting of the whole hospital. It's going to work soon. People in the hospital don't have time to make trouble with you."
Seeing Yan Bugui's family taking turns to challenge Liang Ladi, Liu Guangqi stood up at the side.
"I'm trying to find out the truth. Why am I just messing around?"
Yan Bugui said dissatisfied.
"It is the job of the police station to find out the truth, and the general meeting of the hospital is responsible for mediating conflicts. You have done all the work of the police station, do you want to make all police comrades unemployed?
Besides, it's too arbitrary for you to conclude that the wheel was stolen by Liang Ladi's family based on just one sentence without any evidence. If word of this spreads, others will think that the people in our courtyard have ganged up to bully the newly arrived orphans and widowed mothers. Do you think so? "
Hearing Liu Guangqi's words, the third uncle's family, who had been jumping up and down just now, suddenly stopped talking. If Liu Guangqi was not here, they might be able to take advantage of Liang Ladi through the whole hospital meeting, but with Liu Guangqi's statement, they might not be able to In the end, they had to pay Liang Ladi something more.
It seems that the three uncles make the final decision in this courtyard, but Liu Guangqi is the boss behind the scenes, and he can often overturn the decisions made by the whole courtyard meeting with just one sentence.
Who knows that every household in this courtyard has been favored by Liu Guangqi? Among other things, Yan Jiedi of his family grew up eating milk powder bought by Liu Guangqi. This kind of kindness is huge.
"Hey, this courtyard is quite lively. What's going on?"
Just when everyone was discussing who stole the wheel, Silly Zhu walked in humming a tune.
"What's going on? We have a thief in our courtyard."
Yan Bugui said while stamping his feet.
"Ouch, you're attracting thieves. No way, I lost something."
"Your third uncle's bicycle"
"The bike is lost, it's impossible, it's just one wheel handle."
Before Yi Zhonghai could finish speaking, Shazhu couldn't wait to speak.
Hearing what Sha Zhu said, Liu Guangqi couldn't help but cover his head, and everyone else looked at Sha Zhu with strange eyes.
"Wait a minute, Silly Zhu, you know so much that I lost a wheel."
Feeling that the atmosphere was a bit wrong, Shazhu immediately wanted to slip away, but was stopped by Yan Bugui.
"Well, didn't I see it when I went to the toilet? Isn't this car sitting on the screen wall?"
Silly Zhu chuckled. The others also nodded after hearing this.
"No, you lied. I just went to the toilet, and there was no one there at all."
Just when Silly Zhu was about to call off the suspicion, Xu Damao suddenly stood up.
"How do you explain this? Silly Zhu."
After hearing this, everyone looked at Shazhu again.
"Well, I didn't go to the toilet in our alley, I went to the street."
"Don't come here, Jie Cheng, Jiefang, Jie Kuang, the three of you immediately go to the car repair shop near us to see if they have our car wheels. Go further away and visit more shops."
Now that he had caught Si Zhu's flaw, how could Yan Bugui let Si Zhu go? After giving the order, the three Yan brothers immediately ran outside like wild horses on the loose.
"Just wait, Silly Zhu, don't let me find the evidence. If I find the evidence, you see how I will deal with you."
Yan Bugui reached out and tapped the stupid pillar, found a bench to work on, and quietly waited for the three of them to come back.
