Siheyuan: Let Yourself Go He Yuzhu

Chapter 143: You Have to Leave Even If You Are Reluctant

Chapter 143: You Have to Leave Even If You Are Reluctant
“It was Sha Zhu who found Li Huaide. This grandson of Sha Zhu is really a good-for-nothing…” Xu’s mother cursed.

“Okay, stop scolding! Does scolding work? If scolding works, let’s scold together as a family of four! If you can’t solve the problem, don’t make trouble!” Xu Fugui shouted coldly.

Upon hearing this, Xu’s mother immediately shut her mouth.

“I ask, you answer. Are you sure about this? Was it Sha Zhu who found Li Huaide, and was it Li Huaide who sent our family of four to the third line?” Xu Fugui made the final confirmation.

“Yes.” said Xu’s mother.

Xu Fugui understood that He Yuzhu must have spent money, and a lot of money, otherwise, he would not have been able to impress Li Huaide.

“Did Lou Bancheng say anything?” Xu Fugui asked again.

“The Lou family doesn’t care about our family’s affairs at all.” said Xu’s mother.

Xu Fugui’s face was changeable. He hunted geese all year round, but unexpectedly, he was blinded by a goose.

“Dad, what should we do? I don’t want to go to a third-tier university.” Xu Damao said with a sad face.

“Go find Li Huaide. If Sha Zhu can get things done with money, we can also use money to avoid disasters.” Xu Fugui said in a deep voice.

Immediately, Xu Fugui rummaged through the boxes and drawers and took out all his family assets. At this time, Xu Fugui also knew that this was not the time to save, so Xu Fugui took out all his savings, which was only three thousand yuan plus two small yellow croakers and some copper coins. The copper coins were not valuable and could be ignored.

Xu Fugui found a bag and put three thousand yuan and two small yellow croakers in it, then said to Xu Damao, “Let’s go find Li Huaide.”

“Dad! Isn’t this too much?” Xu Damao said reluctantly.

Xu Fugui was so angry that he almost had high blood pressure. He still cared about money at this time. He really forgot the big picture for the sake of small profits.

“A lot? I’m afraid it’s not enough. Do you think this is a treat or a gift? This is a big matter concerning our destiny. At this time, do you still care about this little money?” Xu Fugui said with a disappointed look.

“Isn’t this just treating guests and giving gifts?” Xu Damao muttered softly.

Xu Fugui rolled his eyes at Xu Damao and asked Xu Damao to lead the way. The two of them went together to give gifts to Li Huaide. In such a matter that was almost a matter of life and death, Xu Fugui didn’t dare to trust Xu Damao.

In Xu Fugui’s opinion, Xu Damao is still too immature and too short-sighted.

When Xu Damao and Xu Fugui arrived at the steel rolling mill’s staff housing building, they were dumbfounded because Li Huaide no longer lived there.

After the last incident where Director Yang’s house collapsed, Li Huaide no longer lived here, but lived with his father-in-law. His father-in-law’s place was safe, and there were many rooms and a large space, so there was room for him to live there.

In the past, Li Huaide was unwilling to live with his father-in-law because he felt stressed from seeing him every day. Now, no matter how stressful he is, life is more important.

What’s more, Li Huaide and his father-in-law did not live in the same building, but found a small courtyard to live in.

After asking around, Xu Damao found out Li Huaide’s new address. However, when Xu and his son arrived at Li Huaide’s new address, they could not enter the door because there were soldiers standing guard in this kind of yard and you couldn’t just enter if you wanted to.

The security guard had already called Li Huaide, but Li Huaide simply said he didn’t want to see them and hung up the phone. No matter how much Xu Damao and Xu Fugui begged, the security guard refused to let them go, and of course, he didn’t call either.

Xu Fugui and Xu Damao were helpless and had to leave dejectedly. Xu Fugui understood that this place was not like a steel mill, and if the guards were forced into a corner, they would really dare to shoot.

“How is it? Is it done?” When Xu’s mother saw Xu Fugui and Xu Damao coming back in a mess, she already had a bad idea in her mind, but she still couldn’t help asking.

“Alas, I didn’t find the person and the guard wouldn’t let me in.” Xu Damao said dejectedly.

“Since the guard won’t let me in, let’s go to the factory to find Li Huaide tomorrow.” Xu Fugui said after thinking about it.

Xu Damao had no choice but to nod in agreement.

“Dad, do you want to take revenge on Shazhu? If he dares to send us to the third line, I will break both of his arms and make him unable to be a cook.” Xu Damao said viciously.

“There’s no rush for this. Let’s talk about it after we’ve settled our issues. Sha Zhu will definitely take revenge, but even if he wants to, we can’t do it. It’s best to kill with a borrowed knife.” Xu Fugui said.

“Killing with a borrowed knife?” Xu Damao was stunned.

“My dear, tomorrow you should spread the news that Sha Zhu wants to get us to the third line. Say that Sha Zhu did this to get Lou Xiao’e. By the way, spread the news about the relationship between Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu as well.”

“I don’t believe that Lou Bancheng doesn’t think about it. As long as Lou Bancheng thinks about it, he will take action against Sha Zhu. Lou Bancheng doesn’t dare to touch Li Huaide, but can’t he touch Sha Zhu?” Xu Fugui sneered.

“Great! Really great!” Xu Damao couldn’t help but give a thumbs up, admiring his father’s cunningness very much.

Xu Damao was originally interested in Lou Xiao’e, but He Yuzhu forced Xu Damao to go to the hospital, and now Xu Damao only cares about his own health.

“Okay, leave it to me.” said Xu’s mother.

“We have to be quick! At most we have to spend some money, but we have to get these things to Lou Bancheng’s ears as quickly as possible.” Xu Fugui said.

“Okay!” said Xu’s mother.

“Da Mao, you sleep here tonight.” Xu Fugui said, and sent Xu Damao to sleep.

Xu Damao tactfully found a room to sleep. When Xu Fugui saw Xu Damao leave, he couldn’t help but sigh and smoked with a frown.

“Boss, is there really no way back on this matter?” asked Xu’s mother.

“It’s very difficult! The documents have all been received and stamped. Alas! I really didn’t expect that Sha Zhu was such a cruel guy.” Xu Fugui said in a deep voice.

Xu Fugui said it was difficult, and in fact it was even more difficult, because anything that was stamped was almost a foregone conclusion, and the higher-ups were also averse to changing their orders overnight.

“At worst, Damao will quit. We won’t tolerate this.” Xu’s mother said in a deep voice.

“What do you know? Let’s not talk about whether Damao can resign. If he really resigns, there will definitely be a record of improper thinking in his file. With this record, you can forget about finding a job in this life. No unit will accept you. No one will want you even if you sweep the streets. Then you will just starve to death.” Xu Fugui said angrily.

Upon hearing this, Xu’s mother stopped talking and turned around to scold He Yuzhu.

“Okay, prepare for the worst. Remember, make sure to spread what I told you tomorrow. If we don’t have a good life, we can’t let Sha Zhu have an easy life either. Lou Bancheng’s anger is not so easy to bear.” Xu Fugui said.

“Or, I’ll go to Sha Zhu’s house and make some noise tomorrow.” said Xu’s mother.

“It’s useless. It’s more important to do business.” Xu Fugui waved his hand and said in a deep voice.

At the same time, in the courtyard, after He Yuzhu and He Yushui finished their meal, He Yuzhu talked about Xu Damao’s matter. Of course, He Yuzhu did not mention the matter of sending small yellow croaker, but just said that he would cook more dishes for the leader.

“Brother, that’s awesome. You don’t have to worry about Xu Damao disrupting your blind dates anymore.” He Yushui said excitedly.

“Well, you don’t have to worry about it in the future. You just have to be careful these two days. Watch out for Xu Damao who might become desperate and do something bad to us. So, starting tomorrow, you will go to the steel mill with me.” He Yuzhu said.

He Yushui obviously knew the importance of this and nodded.

Early the next morning, after He Yuzhu and He Yushui finished their meal, they went to the steel mill together. After arriving at the steel mill, He Yuzhu reported to his immediate superior Niu Fen and said that he would take He Yushui to and from get off work for a few days.

Niu Fen obviously knew that He Yuzhu was worried about He Yushui’s safety, so he readily agreed.

He Yuzhu asked He Yushui to stay in his office. If he was really annoyed, he could go to the kitchen and stay in He Yuzhu’s sight. After Xu Fugui and Xu Damao arrived at the steel mill, they went straight to Li Huaide’s office. This time, the father and son met Li Huaide very easily.

“Da Mao, I understand how you feel. I know you are anxious, but don’t worry. This matter has been reported and approved. There is no way to change it.”

“It’s the same everywhere, we all serve the people, Damao, you need to have a bigger vision. Our city is full of hidden talents and you will be a talent when you get there. Work hard and try to make a name for yourself as soon as possible.” Li Huaide didn’t even give Xu Damao a chance to speak and said directly.

Xu Fugui couldn’t help but sigh when he saw this. Although Xu Fugui had a hunch after he didn’t send the gift last night, when the hunch became a reality, Xu Fugui was still unwilling to accept it. However, no matter how unwilling he was, there was nothing he could do.

“Director Li, you can’t do this, Dad, hurry up and give the things to Director Li.” Xu Damao said incoherently.

However, Xu Fugui knew that it was useless to have more money. It would be better to go there and smooth things over. Maybe he could come back earlier.

“Director Li, I’m sorry to have embarrassed you by my son’s rudeness. We will leave now and not disturb you anymore,” said Xu Fugui.

Although Xu Fugui was helpless and angry, the matter was already a done deal and there was no point in saying anything. It would be better for him to exit in a dignified manner.

“It’s okay, I understand.” Li Huaide said indifferently.

Seeing that Xu Damao wanted to say more, Xu Fugui dragged Xu Damao out of Li Huaide’s office.

“He’s a tactful person.” Li Huaide chuckled. Li Huaide had already prepared for Xu Damao to be tactless. If Xu Damao really was tactless, Li Huaide would call the security department.

The reason why Li Huaide was so straightforward was not only because He Yuzhu gave him a big gift, but also because in Li Huaide’s heart, He Yuzhu’s value was far higher than Xu Damao.

“Dad, why don’t you give the gift to Director Li?” Xu Damao asked.

“It’s useless. I had a hunch last night when the gift wasn’t delivered. I went to the cinema to ask, but it was useless. I can’t beat him. Rather than just giving the money to Li Huaide and letting it go down the drain, it’s better to find a chance to smooth things over when I get there.”

“With money, we can be the boss wherever we go!” said Xu Fugui.

Xu Fugui appears to be carefree, and he is actually very carefree in his heart.

Xu Fugui thought about it all night last night and finally decided to go to the third line. Xu Fugui not only considered that this matter had become an established fact and could not be changed, but also thought about the entire family and the issue of continuing the family line.

In Xu Fugui’s opinion, Xu Damao is useless.

From now on, Xu Damao could only marry a widow with a child, and only a widow with a girl, let the child have the surname Xu, and then find a live-in son-in-law;
Or, Xu Damao could marry an older daughter and then adopt one or two children;

Another option is to let Xu Xiaoling find a son-in-law to carry on the Xu family’s legacy.

However, Xu Fugui was unwilling to give up. He still wanted his own grandson, so after thinking for a long time, he decided to go to the third line.

In the old city, everything was strictly controlled, but in the third frontier, where the emperor was far away, Xu Fugui could secretly find a concubine and let her give birth to a son for him.

Since Xu Damao is no longer useful, I will start practicing on the trumpet again.

“Really, can we come back?” Xu Damao obviously didn’t expect that he had been abandoned, and asked hurriedly.

“Of course! No matter what, a film projectionist is also a skilled worker. We will be in high demand wherever we go. Once we get there, we will first gain a foothold, then find out the ins and outs, and then use money to smooth things over,” said Xu Fugui.

“Okay! But we can’t let Sha Zhu get away with it! Dad, give me some money and I will secretly find someone to beat up Sha Zhu.” Xu Damao said hatefully.

“Didn’t I tell you last night that we can’t do anything like this. Do you still want to come back? If you do, don’t do anything. It won’t work to look for people secretly. This is the Fortress of Sijiu. We don’t have the ability to leave no clues.” Xu Fugui said in a deep voice.

“Wasn’t everything fine last time?” Xu Damao said.

“Last time, no one was willing to investigate further. Believe it or not, if you take action this time, if Sha Zhu pays Li Huaide again, once Li Huaide makes an effort, he will definitely investigate desperately. Don’t think that if you follow him to the third line, he will let you go. You will suffer the consequences if you make a phone call to him.”

“There’s a trace left in the file. How else do you want to get rid of it? Go home first and discuss this matter with your mother.” Xu Fugui said in a cold voice.

When Xu Fugui and Xu Damao returned home, Xu’s mother had just come back from spreading rumors.

“This won’t work. It’s too slow. Let’s clean up today. In the evening, you go to Lou Bancheng’s house to say goodbye and tell this to Lou Bancheng’s wife in person.” Xu Fugui said in a deep voice.

“Boss, you didn’t give Li Huaide any gifts?” asked Xu’s mother.

“No, I can’t give it away. The matter has been settled. Giving gifts is useless. It’s better to keep the money and use it to smooth things over there. Let’s clean it up first.” Xu Fugui said unwillingly.

However, no matter how unwilling he was, there was nothing Xu Fugui could do and he could only comfort himself.

Xu Fugui couldn’t help but think of He Daqing, who was also forced to go to another place. At that time, Xu Fugui laughed at He Daqing, but now it was his turn.

“Shazhu, let’s wait and see. I hope you are still alive when our family comes back.” Xu Fugui couldn’t help but say angrily.

Xu’s mother had no choice but to clean up the house.

Xu Damao returned to the courtyard and started to clean up. Xu Damao couldn’t help but want to smash He Yuzhu’s house to pieces with bricks, but he suddenly remembered that things are different now.

In the past, all matters were resolved in the courtyard. Now, if I really want to smash He Yuzhu’s house, He Yuzhu will definitely report to the police station.

Reporting to the police station is considered a light punishment, but I’m afraid He Yuzhu will go to the square and hold up a sign.

In the end, Xu Damao endured it.

“Da Mao, what’s wrong with you?” Auntie couldn’t help but ask.

“Oh, what else could it be? Just two days ago, I ruined Sha Zhu’s blind date. In order to retaliate against me, Sha Zhu found the leader and had our family of four exiled to the third line. I came back to clean up the house.” Xu Damao said sadly.

Although Xu Damao could not smash He Yuzhu’s glass to vent his anger, he would not let He Yuzhu have an easy time. At the very least, he had to ruin He Yuzhu’s reputation and make everyone think that He Yuzhu was sarcastic, cruel and ruthless.

When the three aunts heard this, their faces suddenly changed.

“Third Aunt, you all have to be careful in the future and don’t offend Sha Zhu. Second Uncle and I are a lesson for you. Maybe you don’t know that Second Uncle also offended Sha Zhu, and that’s why Sha Zhu used him to drive him to the Third Front.”

“Also, this time Sha Zhu’s revenge on me was not just because I disrupted his blind date, but also because he fell in love with the girl from Lou Bancheng’s family. My mother wanted to match me up with the girl from the Lou family, but I got in Sha Zhu’s eyes and blocked his way, so he used underhanded tricks to get rid of me, this obstacle.” Xu Damao said mysteriously.

After Xu Damao spread the rumor, he went to the street and registered the house under the street name. Xu Damao’s house is a private property, and Xu Damao will not sell it, but keep it to show that he will come back sooner or later.

Regarding the house issue, Xu Damao not only went to the street office but also went to the police station, just in case.

Director Wang of the street also did the notarization in front of everyone.

“Da Mao, you have put your house up for rent on the street, do you still want the furniture?” asked the third aunt.

“Auntie, don’t think about it. I have donated the furniture to the street.” Xu Damao sneered.

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he no longer paid any attention to the three aunts. After packing up, he found a cart and took it to his parents’ home.
