The slap Yan Jiecheng gave in anger just now was too harsh.
At this time, Huang Xiaocui's cheeks were purple and swollen, her mouth was stained with blood, her hair was messy, she was standing on the ground barefoot, and roared in a hoarse voice.
This look immediately calmed Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui.
Yan Jiecheng was stunned for a moment and asked in a daze: "Xiao Cui, what do you mean?"
Huang Xiaocui was immediately relieved when he heard Yan Jiecheng call him Xiaocui.
She shook her head and looked at Yan Jiecheng with pity: "Jiecheng, why are you so stupid! Let me ask you, what is Xu Damao's biggest pain in this life?"
"Of course it's because I can't have children. When I was with Lou Xiao'e, Xu Damao always said it was Lou Xiao'e's fault. Now that I've been married to Qin Jingru for so long, he still doesn't have children. Everyone knows that it's Xu Damao's fault behind his back. They all called him dead.
Xu Damao hated it when people said this to him, and he even had a fight with Sha Zhu about it once.
Yan Jiecheng frowned and asked in confusion: "But what does this have to do with us?" "
Huang Xiaocui rolled her eyes: "You are really a fool. You are much younger than Xu Damao. Now that we have a child, Xu Damao must be feeling aggrieved. You also know that he is a sinister person, so he changed his ways. Slander me!"
..... There seems to be a little bit of truth. Xu Damao is indeed capable of doing this kind of thing that harms others but does not benefit himself. Yan Jiecheng nodded slightly, a little shaken.
Huang Xiaocui felt happy and turned her attention to Yan Bugui: "Dad, the reason why Xu Damao slandered me has something to do with you."
"Me?" Yan Bugui was stunned for a moment: "Xu Damao and I are not the same age, so he doesn't need to be jealous of me, right? Besides, I have four children, can Xu Damao be jealous?"
"It's not because of this." Huang Xiaocui curled her lips and said: "Look, Xu Damao has a good relationship with Wang Weidong now. Wang Weidong is busy with work, so Xu Damao established the steward of the courtyard. And you are the third uncle of our courtyard, and you have great prestige in the hearts of the residents. Very high, Xu Damao wanted to deal with you, but never found a chance. So, he thought of using this method of spreading rumors to deal with our family."
Seeing Yan Bugui nodded slightly, Huang Xiaocui waited patiently, and then said: "Look, if such a big scandal happens in our family and it spreads, your prestige will drop a lot, and then Xu Damao will There’s a chance.”
"Xu Damao is an official fan just like Liu Haizhong. He will never be satisfied with being a nameless little steward. His purpose is to get you and Liu Haizhong to become a real steward."
Huang Xiaocui's analysis was reasonable and well-founded, and Yan Bugui nodded frequently: "Yes, Xu Damao is indeed uneasy and well-intentioned. It seems that we have all been deceived by Xu Damao!"
Yan Jiecheng remembered that he had just misunderstood Huang Xiaocui and almost hurt the child in Huang Xiaocui's belly. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "Xu Damao, you and I are irreconcilable."
The corners of Huang Xiaocui's mouth turned up slightly.
....
As night fell, the entire courtyard fell into silence.
After washing her feet, the third aunt walked into the house in the dark and was startled when she saw Yan Bugui sitting upright on the bed.
"Lao Yan, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Sleep, I'll sleep right now..." Yan Bugui sighed and lay down on the bed.
The third aunt yawned, pulled the quilt to cover her, looked at the mottled tree shadows outside the window, and whispered: "Lao Yan, is the child in Xiaocui's belly really okay?"
In the evening, when the three people were arguing, the third aunt hid outside the house and listened.
Although Huang Xiaocui was eloquent and blamed all the reasons on Xu Damao, the third aunt didn't quite believe it.
Because she knows a little more than Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui.
The third aunt has been responsible for the Yan family's washing work.
It was she who washed the sheets on Yan Jiecheng's wedding night.
When clearing away the sheets, the third aunt dug out something soft, fishy smelling, and a little red in the quilt.
At that time, the third aunt couldn't figure out what it was and threw it into the trash can.
Hearing Yan Jiecheng mention the swim bladder, the third aunt suddenly realized that the thing she picked up back then was actually the swim bladder!
The swim bladder was found in the bedding....That means...
The third aunt didn't dare to think about it any more.
When Yan Bugui heard the third aunt's question, he was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Old lady, don't ask this kind of question again in the future. Huang Xiaocui always has a lot of things wrong with her, but she said something right yesterday. If this is the case, If this incident spreads, our family's face will be completely lost.
Our old Yan family cannot afford to lose that face!
Also, if you marry a daughter-in-law now, you have to pay a bride price and buy three rings and one turn for forty-eight legs.
That costs a lot of money. "
The third aunt sighed and nodded silently.
She knows Yan Bugui's character well.
Yan Bugui valued reputation more than his life. As an old teacher, he considered himself superior to others.
In the courtyard house, I often look down on other residents.
If those residents knew that the Yan family was raising children for others, they would definitely laugh out loud.

After Xu Damao finished eating in the evening, he kept paying attention to the situation in the front yard.
But when it was midnight, he didn't hear the expected quarrel.
"Is this really weird? Logically speaking, if Yan Jiecheng knows that the child in Huang Xiaocui's belly is not his, he will definitely make a fuss," Xu Damao mumbled while squatting in the cold wind at the door.
Qin Jingru had just finished washing and was combing her hair in front of the mirror.
She frowned: "Da Mao, have you done something bad again?"
"No way!" Xu Damao stood up and chuckled: "I was doing a good deed! Yan Jiecheng will have to thank me from today on!"
"Who knows what you are up to!" Qin Jingru saw that Xu Damao was unwilling to speak out, so she did not continue to ask.
She looked at the beautiful little girl in the mirror and sighed.
So what if it’s tidied up so beautifully! Brother Hong Chang is not coming tonight...
Xu Damao turned around and entered the room. He saw Qin Jingru dazed in front of the mirror. He quietly walked up and hugged Qin Jingru.
"Daughter-in-law, you are so beautiful today!"
Qin Jingru felt sick when she smelled the strange smell on Xu Damao's body. She threw Xu Damao's arm away and stood up with a cold face: "Don't touch me, I'm not feeling well today!"
After saying that, Qin Jingru twisted her butt and entered the back room.
Xu Damao was so deflated that he sat on his chair and sulked.
He felt that something was wrong with Qin Jingru recently, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
early morning.
The dull golden light spread all over the capital, coating everything with a layer of golden light.
"Jingru, I'm going to work."
Early in the morning, Xu Damao pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard.
He took a day off yesterday and had to go to the Red Star Commune to show a movie tomorrow. Today he had to go early to prepare for the movie screening.
Xu Damao was riding his bicycle and was in a good mood.
After Yan Jiecheng got married, he often showed off his daughter-in-law in the courtyard, who was a textile factory employee and the niece of a lumber factory leader.
As a result, it turned out to be a broken shoe now.
Hahaha.
Xu Damao couldn't help laughing when he thought of Yan Jiecheng's devastated look yesterday.
Sudden.
A black shadow jumped out from behind the big tree. The shadow held a wooden stick and pounded it towards Xu Damao's back.
Xu Damao felt the cold wind carried by the stick, and his hair stood up instantly. He wanted to turn aside to avoid it, but found that he was riding a bicycle.
There was only a "bang" sound.
Xu Damao was hit hard on the shoulder by a wooden stick. He screamed and fell from his bicycle to the ground.
Even though Xu Damao was in good health, he was beaten to pieces and looked like stars.
Before he could take a breath, the cold wind hit again. Xu Damao felt a chill in his heart. He rolled on the spot, dodged the attack of the wooden stick, and grabbed the wooden stick.
He looked along the wooden stick and saw a figure wearing blue and black work clothes, with a tattered felt hat on his head, and a veil and mask on his face, making his face completely unclear.
"Who? Who are you?" Xu Damao asked with a trembling voice.
The man in the blue and black overalls did not expect that Xu Damao would catch the stick. He did not answer and tried with all his strength to take the stick back.
Xu Damao gritted his teeth and exerted force suddenly. The blue and black overalls were caught off guard and fell to the ground with the wooden stick.
Seeing that the situation was not good, he struggled to get up, but was a step too late.
Xu Damao kicked him hard, making him scream in pain.
Hearing the sound, Xu Damao's face changed drastically and he exclaimed: "Yan Jiecheng!"
At this time, Yan Jiecheng, who was lying on the ground holding his stomach and groaning in pain, stopped pretending, pulled off his mask, and glared at Xu Damao fiercely.
"Xu Damao, you, a grand thief, dare to frame my Xiaocui!"
"Frame Huang Xiaocui? Yan Jiecheng, what are you talking about!" Xu Damao was confused.
Yesterday, he helped Yan Jiecheng expose Huang Xiaocui's true face. Logically speaking, Yan Jiecheng should thank him.
However, now Yan Jiecheng actually hid in the middle of the road and attacked him. If Yan Jiecheng hadn't been such a waste, he would have really suffered a big loss.
Yan Jiecheng struggled to get up from the ground and said coldly: "Xu Damao, I know you have always been jealous of my wife's pregnancy, but I didn't expect you to be so vicious!"
After saying that, Yan Jiecheng limped to work.
He doesn't have a bicycle. If he is any later, he will definitely be late, and his perfect attendance award for this month will be lost.
Xiao Cui is about to give birth to a child, and he has to work hard to save money.
Looking at Yan Jiecheng's back, Xu Damao squinted his eyes, and he seemed to understand a little bit.
"Oh, Huang Xiaocui, I really underestimated you! You can actually bring the dead back to life, tsk tsk!"
"But that's what makes it interesting!"
"I, Xu Damao, have been careless this time. We will have plenty of opportunities to try it out in the future."
Yan Jiecheng's kindness was repaid with revenge, which broke Xu Damao's heart.
He decided to find another way to solve Huang Xiaocui's matter.
For example, brothers and sisters, you don’t want Yan Jiecheng to know about your affairs, right?
....
"Jie Jie... Ouch!"
Just when Xu Damao let out a sinister laugh as he thought about what was about to happen, someone kicked him in the butt.
"Who!"
He covered his butt and turned around, and saw Silly Zhu standing not far behind him, with Bangge standing next to Silly Zhu.
"Xu Damao, are you planning to do something bad again?"
Silly Zhu had been having a hard time recently and had no intention of dealing with Xu Damao.
It's better now. Not only has Banggeng worked hard these days, but his attitude towards him has also improved. Maybe it won't be long before he can get married to Qin Huairu.
When he thought of the bright future, Shazhu became excited again.
He happened to encounter Xu Damao standing on the road laughing strangely, so he naturally had to teach Xu Damao a lesson.
When Xu Damao saw that it was Silly Zhu, his aura suddenly dropped. He stiffened his neck and said, "Silly Zhu, you thief, I didn't offend you, why did you do it?"
"Hey, grandpa, do you need a reason to teach your grandson a lesson?" Silly Zhu said, rolled up his sleeves and clenched his fists.
Even though it was easy for Xu Damao to deal with Yan Jiecheng, he was no match for Silly Zhu, and he knew this.
"Silly Zhu, just wait for me, I won't let you go!"
Xu Damao took advantage of Sha Zhu's inattention, got on his bicycle, and sped away.
Seeing Xu Damao escaping hastily, Shazhu looked at Banggeng and smiled proudly: "Did you see it? When Xu Damao sees me, it's like a mouse sees a cat."
"Uncle Silly, you are still the best. Xu Damao is considered the number one person in the compound, but you managed him to be docile." Bangge gave a thumbs up.
"That's what I, He Yuzhu, also practiced back then..."
Silly Zhu seemed to continue talking, but was stopped by Bangge: "Uncle Silly, let's go to work quickly. We have to arrange an extension tomorrow. If we are late, the boss will be unhappy."
"Yes, yes, Bangge, you are right to remind me." Silly Zhu came to his senses and nodded: "Bangge, your kid has really grown up now!"
"That's because you taught me well, silly uncle..."
The two of them talked and came to the private hotel.
Since Bangge had completed the purchasing task yesterday, he didn't have much work today, he just helped Shazhu.
Silly Zhu became even more excited when he saw Bangge being so diligent, and repeatedly praised Bangge as a good boy.
After working hard all day, Shazhu and Banggan walked towards the courtyard under the dim sunset.
When he could see the gate of the courtyard, Banggeng suddenly stopped and slapped his forehead.
"Uncle Silly, I forgot my house key at the hotel. My mother probably hasn't gotten off work yet, and I can't get in."
"Then...you can rest at my house for a while?" Silly Zhu suggested.
Now that He Yuyu is married, Shazhu lives alone in Shazhu's house.
"No, my mother will definitely be angry if she knows that I'm careless." Banggian's eyes were spinning wildly, "Uncle Silly, I remember that you seem to have the key to the hotel, can you lend it to me?"
Silly Zhu is a chef in a hotel. He works very hard and has the trust of his boss.
In addition, the boss also has a formal job. When he is busy at work, Shazhu will take care of the restaurant.
Silly Zhu naturally has a key.
Hearing that Bangge returned to the restaurant to get the key because he was afraid that Qin Huairu would be angry, Shazhu was moved for a moment.
What a good kid, I should help you with this!
He took the key from his belt and handed it to Banggeng: "Go quickly, it will get dark later."
Banggan got the key, a faint smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and ran away in a puff of smoke.
