Chapter 73 The details
Xu Fugui waved his hand at He Yuzhu and said with a smile: "Zhuzi, you are being polite to Damao. Uncle is so happy, how can he be angry?

Uncle just heard about it. If you hadn't spoken up for justice, Damao might have suffered a loss today.

He looks so smart at ordinary times, but when things go wrong, he is as stupid as a pig. "

The last sentence was said by Xu Fugui to Xu Damao.

Xu Damao was not afraid of his father. He whispered softly, "I am a pig. What are you? What is my mother?"

Although the sound was soft, several people in the room heard it.

Yu Shui just laughed, her face was like a red apple, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes.

He Yuzhu's face turned red from trying to hold it in. He couldn't laugh because it would be impolite to do so.

Xu Fugui slapped him without even thinking about it.

This time I really put in some effort.

There was a crisp "pop" sound, and Xu Damao jumped behind He Yuzhu with an "ow".

Damn, looking at this afterimage, He Yuzhu even thought this guy had practiced light skills.

However, with Xu Damao interrupting, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

He Yuzhu invited Xu Fugui to sit down. There was no tea, but he still had to pour a glass of boiled water.

When He Yuzhu was busy, Xu Fugui called out, "Zhuzi, stop busying yourself. I came here today. One is to thank you, and the other is to remind you that the old lady in the backyard is not as simple as you think. You have to be more careful in the future."

He Yuzhu paused when he heard this. He knew that this was the reward from the Xu family for helping Xu Damao just now.

But what He Yuzhu didn't understand was what kind of background the old lady in the backyard had that made Xu Fugui pay so much attention to her.

Xu Fugui didn't care about He Yuzhu's reaction, but glanced at Xu Damao and said self-deprecatingly: "Is it because your father didn't avenge you just now that you still feel upset?"

Xu Damao avoided his gaze but said nothing, which implicitly meant he acknowledged Xu Fugui's words.

Xu Fugui smiled and said, "If Dad could handle her, he would have done it long ago. Why did he have to wait until today for her to come and cause trouble for our family? Isn't it annoying to have her blocking our door every day?"

He Yuzhu was surprised and asked, "Didn't the old lady's relationship with the street end? Could it be that she has other connections?"

Xu Fugui smiled and said instructively, "The old lady's relationship with the street, and Director Yang of our factory, were all introduced to her by the new country, and the relationship is not deep. To put it bluntly, it is still unclear whether people remember her or not.

If this was the only connection she had, how could she, an old widow, look after such a large yard in such a chaotic time before liberation, without anyone taking advantage of her?"

Xu Damao was surprised and asked, "Could it be that this old lady has some powerful connections in her family?"

Xu Fugui lit a cigarette for himself and moved towards He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu waved his hand, but Xu Damao looked over eagerly.

Although there is no restriction on children smoking these days, it is impossible for Xu Fugui to take the initiative to give cigarettes to his son.

Xu Fugui puffed out smoke for a while, but said: "No one knows the old lady's exact background. But I saw an old man coming to see her once. Although the old man's appearance has changed a lot, your uncle Xu is also a street person. He recognized at a glance that the man was once a subordinate of the old Beiyang Marshal Duan. It turns out that he was also a figure on the street.

Even after Marshal Duan was defeated, this man was still doing quite well. Even the former low-class people on the streets of Nanluoguxiang had to call him "Master Huang".

If that were all, I would have thought he was just an acquaintance on the street.

But later I heard a rumor on the street that when the old lady was young, she seemed to be someone's concubine.

Although Mr. Huang has apparently run away, no one knows whether he has actually run away or not.

Besides, who knows who she knows among all those people? "

Although Xu Fugui didn't say it explicitly, He Yuzhu understood what he meant.

It was nothing more than that the deaf old lady was the concubine of Mr. Huang. Even if she didn't want her anymore, she was not something that ordinary people like the Xu family could bully. Xu Damao shouted, "Dad, you know all this, why don't you report it to the street office?
Catch that damn old woman, she is the most vicious person in our yard."

Xu Fugui spread his hands and said: "Where is the evidence? Your father and I just go and say it without any evidence, and people will believe it?

Pig brains."

Today, Xu Fugui felt displeased with Xu Damao, especially when compared with He Yuzhu.

Although He Yuzhu is two years older than Xu Damao, He Daqing is not as responsible as Xu Fugui and his wife, so He Yuzhu is basically left to his own devices.

In the past, Xu Fugui thought that his son was a little clever, but when something happened today, he saw the truth. This thing is useless.

"So Uncle Xu gave in to the old lady today?" He Yuzhu asked abruptly.

Xu Fugui looked up at He Yuzhu and said thoughtfully, "As the saying goes, if you don't kill the snake, you will be bitten by it.

This is what Uncle Xu wants to tell you. Uncle Xu knows that you don’t have a good relationship with the old lady.

But Uncle Xu tells you something, someone like the old lady, who has no children and no ties, would have died long ago if she didn’t have a strong character.

The only thing I want is probably to live the rest of my life in comfort.

If you want to deal with her, you can either kill her in one blow or be moderate."

"Just don't destroy her hope for a comfortable life, right?" He Yuzhu replied.

Xu Fugui nodded, but Xu Damao beside him seemed to have just realized it, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "That's too aggrieved.

Doesn't this mean that we can't fight back if we are bullied in the future? "

Xu Fugui laughed dryly twice, but said: "What do you think your father meant by what he said today? From now on, our family and the old lady will not interfere with each other.

Damao, if you mess with that little girl in the future, be careful or I’ll break your legs.”

Even if others don't understand, how could Xu Fugui not understand his own son?

If he wasn't planning on hitting on the girl, why would he need to go up and ask who she was looking for after she had already walked to the backyard?

In Xu Fugui's heart, Xu Damao didn't deserve the beating he received today.

If he hadn't been concerned about Xu Damao's reputation, he might have beaten him up in front of everyone.

Xu Damao's thoughts were exposed by Xu Fugui, and he smiled awkwardly.

But at this moment, someone outside shouted, "Uncle Xu, Uncle Xu, please come out for a moment."

Xu Damao's face turned pale when he heard that, but he slipped under the table.

It was because he heard that the person calling someone outside was Jia Dongxu.

He is here to settle accounts with Xu Damao.

Jia Dongxu outside also had a conflicted look on his face. Damn it, he didn't want to stand at the He family's door and shout for help at this time.

But at this time, there were still neighbors in the yard, and they were all greeted, so it was not appropriate to tell them about what had just happened between the Xu family and the deaf old lady.

At this time, people were discussing in groups about Xu Damao eavesdropping. Of course, they did not mention anyone by name.

　I was too busy this morning, so I can only thank everyone collectively.

　　Thank you all for your monthly tickets, subscriptions, recommendations, and collections!
