Chapter 8: Close combat
The middle courtyard instantly became completely quiet. Even the children stopped making noises, and the dishonest ones were also placed in the arms of their parents.
Following the first man’s words, all eyes turned to Zhu Xuefeng.
Uncle Zou moved the corners of his mouth. He seemed to have no good reason and sat down helplessly.
Zhu Xuefeng was still unaware. He raised his head slightly, as if looking at the sky in the distance, not knowing what was so good about the black sky.
Xu Damao leaned against the locust tree and lit a cigarette. The good show was finally here. It all depends on how Xiao Zhu copes with it. The first man is very familiar with this routine.
Jia Dongxu in the back showed a hint of excitement on his face and his eyes were bright, as if he had seen the ingot and was waiting to pick it up.
Jia Zhang, who was behind the window, muttered: "Lao Yi is okay this time. Dongxu has called him master for so many years, and it is rare to think of his apprentice coming."
Qin Huairu was a little worried. "I said Mom, this Zhu Xuefeng is obviously hard to get along with now, can you agree?"
"Shut up, you broom star, slut, last time I asked you to serve a dish, my heart went flying. , I always mention him no matter what happens.”
"Your man is still here, why are you making a fuss, thinking about being a wild man? If you want to steal someone, you have to wait until I'm dead."
"Mom, how can you say that? I gave birth to all the children of our old Jia family." We are pregnant now, why do you want to steal someone?”
Qin Huairu cried aggrievedly, and then became worried, but was scolded so hard that he could connect with the stolen person no matter what. How can one live like this?
In the middle courtyard, in front of the Eight Immortals table.
"Zhu Xuefeng, you are now the head of your family. Please express your willingness to help these comrades who responded to the call."
The first man asked seriously, with a face full of justice. Right words.
They are really pressing harder and harder, and they are also being slapped with big names, which is amazing!
Zhu Xuefeng stood up and slowly walked towards the Eight Immortals table in full view of everyone without saying anything.
"Three gentlemen, when it comes to this house, can I interrupt?"
"You say", the first uncle was a little speechless when Zhu Xuefeng didn't play his cards according to the routine. The people in the courtyard couldn't help but let Zhu Xuefeng speak.
Zhu Xuefeng pointed to the bandage on his head.
"As you all know, just for the sake of this house, what happened four days ago, I am here to ask three gentlemen to provide justice."
I am about to go astray, the first gentleman The subject must be brought back, otherwise it will definitely be bad.
"We will discuss this later. We will deal with your matter after the meeting. Don't mess with the regulations."
"First tell us whether you are willing to use the house to help needy families."
"If you don't solve the problem of me being sent to the hospital and being comatose for another day, Master, do you think I will take a stand?"
Zhu Xuefeng turned to stare into the Master's eyes.
Yi Zhonghai looked at Zhu Xuefeng's eyes. Why was his eyes so scary at such a young age? The childishness on his face had not faded away, and his expression was very plain. Why did he feel that his eyes were a little murderous?
Seeing that the elder was silent, Zhu Xuefeng slowly took off his shirt and placed them one by one on the Eight Immortals table.
The sky has not yet completely darkened, and the moon has quietly emerged. The light in the middle courtyard is not very good.
After taking off the last shirt, under the mottled moonlight, the black and purple scars were particularly eye-catching. The scars were scattered on the thin chest. Zhu Xuefeng slowly turned around, covered with the same scars.
The representatives in the front row saw several large scars on Zhu Xuefeng's body. Although they were much lighter, they were still shocking and had a great visual impact.
After hearing the description from the front, the people behind were eager to see clearly. There was confusion for a while, and everyone got up and joined the front row.
Jia Dongxu stood up quickly, returned to the room, and peeked through the window. Am I so cruel? It seems drinking is really harmful.
"This little bastard is so miserable at this time. He's a little bastard who deserves to die. Dongxu, why didn't you just beat him to death to save yourself so much trouble?" Mrs. Jia Zhang opened the window and said bitterly. explain.
"Oh my god, if I beat him to death, your son will have to die," Jia Dongxu whispered back.
"There are a lot of scars down there. Many lesbians are present today, so it's not convenient to check..."
The first man's face was livid, and he understood that today's plan must have been ruined, this guy He took advantage of the crowd and jumped on him directly. This little Zhu was more difficult to deal with than he thought.
I stripped myself naked without saying a word, and now I can’t stop him even if I want to. My calculations today are probably blind.
The second uncle and the third uncle were also secretly shocked. They knew that Zhu Xuefeng had been beaten, but after all, no one had seen the scars this time. There were so many and so heavy.
There was a lot of teasing and fighting in the yard, like two enemies, Silly Zhu and Xu Damao, who almost started fighting after saying a few words, but they never had to go to the hospital.
This is the first of its kind.
The discussion in the yard got louder and louder.
"Jia Dongxu really can't tell, he's so cruel."
"I said it's true that Xiao Zhu fainted for a day and a night, you see the bandage on his head is still bloody. "
"This apprentice, Lao Yi, is really bad."
Everyone whispered that if this rule is broken, there will be no peace in the compound in the future, and young people will imitate it. , and it’s not a mess.
Several workers in Lao Zhu’s workshop were even more aggrieved. They only heard that he had fainted and needed to rest, so he didn’t go to see him for fear of disturbing him. Who knew he was being bullied so badly.
What will people think if this is reported back to the workshop? In the same yard, even Lao Zhu’s child cannot be protected, and he is beaten into such a miserable state.
Zhu Xuefeng carefully observed everyone's expressions and had a rough idea in his mind. The warmth and warmth of people were not in vain. If he reported the crime directly, he would not see this.
"First Master, look, it's inappropriate not to give an explanation for this matter."
The third uncle said, the timing was good, and he took the opportunity to give the two uncles some eye drops.
The first uncle looked at his bangs, and the second uncle understood that it was time for him to appear. After thinking about it, he had to find the person who tied the bell.
Liu Haizhong approached Zhu Xuefeng and asked softly.
"Xiao Zhu, tell me, what do you think about this matter and what do you want to do?"
Although the April night is not cold, it is still relatively cold. Seeing that the three uncles all looked at the injuries, Zhu Xuefeng said calmly while putting on his clothes.
"This matter all belongs to the same compound. I'm thinking that I need to let the three uncles coordinate to handle it first. If it can't be handled, I will report the case."
This was planned in advance. What we are waiting for is the hospital-wide meeting for everyone to see.
The three uncles came to deal with it, and their attitude was very upright. But when they heard that a report was to be made, the elder panicked.
This matter is getting more and more troublesome. If the case is reported, Jia Dongxu will lose control. Regardless of what will happen to Jia Dongxu, the sub-district office will definitely criticize him for not fulfilling his duties.
"You cannot report the case. This is an internal conflict in our compound. You can coordinate it yourself."
"If this is reported, it will directly affect the reputation of unity and harmony in our compound and the civility at the end of the year. If the compound is not rated well, every family’s year-end reward will be gone.”
For Wenming Courtyard, the sub-district office will distribute some small prizes to all the residents of the hospital at the end of each year, and sometimes some food and other things. The items are not expensive and very practical, but every household can use them.
These are the basis of the man’s connections, so there can be no accidents. The man’s face was full of worry, but he still spoke righteously and resolutely denied the report.
"Coordination in the courtyard is fine, then give me compensation." Zhu Xuefeng glanced at the elder, this was to give him face.
