Siheyuan: From a technical secondary school student to an academician of a major country

Chapter 144: Slippery

Chapter 144: Slippery
At this moment, Xu Damao was really panicked.

He couldn’t lose his job at the steel mill. Otherwise, not only would he lose his courtyard house, but he would also never be able to enjoy such a high-quality life again.

So, the house cannot be lost, the job in the steel mill cannot be lost, and the sewing machine in the prison cannot be stepped on.

“Whoo~”

Xu Wude let out a long sigh. After all, Xu Damao was his son, and he had to be saved.

He sighed and said, “Don’t even think about the Lou family. Your mother and I have already been to the Lou family, and the house is empty. If we want you to get out now, we can only make some connections, which may take a few days. Just be quiet in there and wait for news.”

Hearing this, Xu Damao was stunned.

He thought Lou Xiao’e just ran back to the Lou family, but he didn’t expect that the Lou family also ran away.

At this time, Xu Damao was very shocked and confused.

It is impossible that the Lou family moved away to avoid him just because Lou Xiao’e divorced him. There must be something more serious happening.

If it was just a minor trouble, with the power of the Lou family, it could be solved with a wave of the hand.

The thing that could cause the Lou family to run away could not be a small matter, it must be a earth-shattering event.

But it was useless for him to think about these things now. After all, the Lou family had already run away, and he didn’t even know where the Lou family was now.

When he came to his senses, he found that Xu Wude and his wife had left, and the public security comrades were walking towards him, preparing to take him back to continue detaining him.

……

Siheyuan, front yard, Yan family.

After returning from Xu Wood’s house, the three uncles sat together and expressed their opinions.

Yan Bugui said, “Old Yi, do you think Xu Damao can come out this time? I think it’s very risky, after all, it’s such a big deal.”

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and gave a different idea. He said, “If it was the Xu family in the past, there would definitely be no way, but it may not be the case now.”

Yan Bugui and Feng Guangjin looked at each other and saw curiosity in each other’s eyes.

Yan Bugui asked, “What do you mean?”

Yi Zhonghai picked up the tea, took a sip calmly, and then said, “Don’t forget, Xu Damao’s ex-wife is Lou Xiao’e. Lou Zhenhua used to be known as Lou half of the city. Although Lou Xiao’e ran away, the Xu family has benefited a lot from this. If Old Xu really wants to get Xu Damao out, he can still solve it by spending some money from his family assets.”

Both of them felt that Yi Zhonghai’s analysis made sense.

In the years that Xu Damao and Lou Xiao’e have been married, no one knows how much benefit the Xu family has gained from the Lou family.

But you can guess with your toes that there are definitely quite a few.

“Okay, there’s no point in talking about this now.”

Yi Zhonghai paused and continued, “The three of us must manage the compound well in the future. Otherwise, the next time Director Wang comes, he might dismiss us.”

Yan Bugui and Feng Guangjin nodded in agreement, and then Yi Zhonghai and Feng Guangjin left Yan’s house together and went home.

In the evening, dinner time.

After finishing his meal, Yu Wenzhen was about to go back to his room, but when he looked up inadvertently, he saw a wisp of green smoke rising up.

That direction…

Yu Wenzhen frowned.

If he was not mistaken, the smoking chimney seemed to belong to Xu Damao’s house.

At this time, Xu Damao was detained in the Public Security Bureau, but someone in the Xu family was making a fire and cooking…

If I’m not mistaken, the people in Xu Damao’s house now should be Xu Damao’s parents.

After thinking about it, Yu Wenzhen turned around and told Yi Zhonghai about this, so that he would not be caught off guard when the Xu family caused trouble.

After telling Yi Zhonghai the news, Yu Wenzhen returned to the house.

Yi Zhonghai immediately walked out of the door and went to discuss the matter with the other two uncles.

“Lao Yi, I was just about to tell you, but I didn’t expect you to know it already.”

Yan Bugui was a little embarrassed. Half an hour ago, Xu Wude and his wife had already entered the hospital, but he was preparing to eat at that time, and thought it wouldn’t take long, so he planned to talk to them after eating.

However, what he didn’t expect was that Yi Zhonghai already knew about it and even called Feng Guangjin over. This was the reason for his embarrassment.

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, “This matter is not important. What’s important is that Mr. and Mrs. Xu may be hospitalized for a while. We all know their temperaments. Please be careful during this period and don’t let them cause any trouble.”

Feng Guangjin nodded in agreement and echoed, “Uncle Yi is right. I have known that couple the longest, and their personalities are indeed difficult to get along with.”

Yan Bugui raised his glasses and said to Feng Guangjin, “Old Feng, they live in the backyard. You are the one in charge of the backyard, so you should pay more attention to it during this period.”

Although Feng Guangjin is a strong person, he is not difficult to talk to. Instead, he is quite reasonable.

He agreed without hesitation: “Okay, no problem. My wife will watch it when I’m not home.”

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said, “Old Feng, if anything happens, please notify us and we can solve it together. Don’t be impulsive.”

Yi Zhonghai knew Feng Guangjin’s temper, so he gave him special instructions.

After all, Feng Guangjin is the second uncle. If he has a conflict with the residents and starts fighting, it will be troublesome.

Moreover, Xu Wude is a cunning man. He is very insidious when doing bad things and never leaves any clues that are disadvantageous to himself.

If Feng Guangjin was tricked by mistake, given his personality, he would most likely resort to violence.

“I see.”

Feng Guangjin nodded in agreement.

But Yan Bugui said, “I think we still need to talk to Lao Xu to find out the situation and see how long they plan to stay in the hospital, so that we can make preparations early.”

“I can see it.”

Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment and nodded.

Feng Guangjin had no objection either.

So, the three uncles quickly went out together and headed straight for Xu’s house.

At this time, in the backyard of Xu’s family.

The front door of the Xu family was covered by a curtain and the inner door was closed.

Xu Wude sat in the main room, smoking alone, his eyes staring straight ahead, as if he was thinking about something.

Xu’s mother brought a plate of food over and put it on the table, saying, “Old Xu, don’t think about it, just eat first.”

Xu Wude was awakened by the sound. He looked up at the food on the table, put out his cigarette, and stood up and sat at the table.

Xu’s mother took off her apron and sat down with them.

The two picked up their chopsticks and were about to eat when there was a knock on the door.

Xu Wood’s hand paused.

“Who is this?”

Xu’s mother complained: “Why are you here at this time?”

Xu Wood calmly picked up the dish and took a bite, then said, “Go open the door, it must be the three uncles coming.”

Xu Wude is also a shrewd person, and he deserves Yi Zhonghai’s evaluation of him as cunning and sly.

While the three uncles were still knocking on the door, Xu Wude had already guessed who was coming, and even guessed the purpose of their visit.

Upon hearing this, Xu’s mother had no choice but to get up and open the door. When the door opened, she was surprised to find that, as Xu Wood said, the three uncles had come.

Xu’s mother said politely, “Three gentlemen, why are you here? Come in and sit down.”

Yi Zhonghai had already seen Xu Wude who was eating in the room. Seeing that he had no intention of moving, he didn’t bother to be polite. He nodded to Xu’s mother and then walked into the main room.

“Old Xu…”
