Chapter 140: Being a fool
"Hey, Teacher Yan, have you finished pasting this couplet? That's pretty neat."
As soon as I entered the door, I saw that Yan Bugui had already put up the couplets at home.
Even the house opposite to the house owned by Yan Jiecheng and his wife has couplets pasted up on it. Yan Bugui was really quick.
"The earlier the better. Didn't you two go to the market early in the morning?" Yan Bugui said happily.
Their family has lived a much better life in the past two years. Although their daughter-in-law Yu Li was not able to get a job in the factory, as long as the young couple lives a good life, there will be no problem.
"We have to get up early. We're late now. It will be too late to clean up in the afternoon. We can't wait until the middle of the night to clean up, right?" He Yuzhu said.
"You silly Zhu, have you written couplets for your home?" Yan Bugui said with a smile.
"It's written, Zhenyu wrote it. I'm not saying this, Third Uncle, but your handwriting is quite different from brother Zhenyu's. It's because my brother Zhenyu doesn't write for others, otherwise you wouldn't be able to do this business." He Yuzhu's words hit the soul.
Originally, Yan Bugui was an intellectual in the compound, and his calligraphy was the best, so everyone was happy to let him write.
But since Yang Zhenyu came, people have also seen what good handwriting is.
However, Yang Zhenyu made it clear that he would not write couplets for others, so people could only look for Yan Bugui.
In fact, Yang Zhenyu’s idea is: If an engineer writes for others to earn money, he would be laughed to death.
"That's the ability of Teacher Yang. Do you, a fool, have the ability to write one for me to see?" Yan Bugui said, staring at He Yuzhu.
"Hey, I don't have that ability, but my family has quite a lot of rain. It's time for me to take the college entrance exam after the New Year. If I come back from college, I'm sure I'll be able to write well." He Yuzhu said proudly.
"That has nothing to do with you, kid. It's all thanks to Mr. Yang's good teaching, and Yu Shui's own ability. Just be happy." Yan Bugui never indulged He Yuzhu, so it was no problem for him to confront him.
"Okay, I won't argue with you. Anyway, my Yu Shui has a bright future." He Yuzhu said.
"Go, go, go home and cook for your wife." Yan Bugui waved his hands repeatedly.
"Come on, I won't live with you in vain. The important thing is to go home and cook. We have to make dumplings in the afternoon." He Yuzhu said happily.
When we quarrel in daily life, no matter we win or lose, we feel happy. The main thing is to have fun and no one can get angry.
"Teacher Yan, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go back soon. It's a nice day for sunbathing." Yang Zhenyu said happily.
I often see these neighbors bickering, and I usually just watch them for fun.
"what sound?"
Yang Zhenyu had just finished his lunch and had not yet returned home when he heard a noisy noise coming from the backyard.
"It sounds like Xu Damao's family. I wonder what kind of trouble they are doing during the New Year." Yi Zhonghai said with a frown.
"This Xu Damao is really troublesome. He always causes some trouble all day long. I don't know why he does all this." An aunt said speechlessly.
"Who knows? When Old Xu was here, he was so troublesome. Now Xu Damao is still so troublesome. I don't know what they passed on to him. He didn't learn anything good." Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said.
"I'll go and take a look, maybe there's something exciting going on." Yang Zhenyu said.
"I'll go and take a look too, but don't let anything happen. After all, their child is still young." Yi Zhonghai also said.
At this time, quite a few people had gathered in the backyard, and everyone came to watch the fun.
Yes, everyone came to watch the fun.
You know, even when the Jia family had a quarrel, there were people trying to mediate, but when Xu Damao had a quarrel, there was not even anyone to mediate, and everyone just watched the fun.
From this, we can see that Xu Damao's popularity is probably not as good as Jia Zhang's. "What's going on?" Yang Zhenyu asked a neighbor.
"I don't know. Xu Damao drank a little at noon today and is acting crazy. His wife is not a pushover either. She and Xu Damao got into a fight."
"Yeah, who would have thought that the weak little wife could actually fight so well? It looks like Xu Damao is a bit overwhelmed."
"Really? Judging from the situation, Xu Damao is going to get beaten."
"I was saying that there are so many tough relatives in my family, how could this girl be weak? When she fights, she is really good."
"No, I still don't understand it after spending a long time. Why is that?" Yang Zhenyu asked curiously.
"I don't know. I just know that Xu Damao drank some wine at noon, and then the fight started."
"I guess it was Xu Damao who got drunk and acted rashly, so the fight started. His wife has a bad temper too."
No one knew why the fight started, they just knew it happened suddenly.
Yang Zhenyu guessed that Xu Damao might have drunk some wine and said something to irritate his wife, such as the issue of children.
This makes it easy to fight.
There are not many people in the compound who know about the child’s problem, and this matter cannot be spread around. If Lao Xu and the others find out, it will be a big trouble again.
However, with so many people watching, it would be easy for something to go wrong if two people were fighting inside.
Who knows, the news that Xu Damao is infertile might be revealed today.
Sure enough, as the two men fought, the insults became more and more vicious, and in the end, the fact that Xu Damao was infertile was exposed.
This has given the neighbors in the compound a big surprise, and it is now fun.
"Well, there's nothing to see, let's go home."
Seeing this scene, Yi Zhonghai finally stood up.
It would be inappropriate if we don't stand up now. When things get out of hand, the street side might have complaints again.
This compound has not been rated as advanced for three consecutive years, which has caused the street to have some dissatisfaction with them. If they fail to get advanced again this year, the street will probably be unhappy.
Nowadays, Yi Zhonghai doesn’t care much about this advancement, nor does he care much about the position of uncle. What he cares about most now is his grandson at home. That is the treasure in his heart, a treasure that he would not exchange for anything.
At this time, Yi Zhonghai still had some prestige.
When everyone saw him show up, they gave him some face.
"Xu Damao, have you had enough of the trouble?" Yi Zhonghai shouted.
"No, it's not enough. So what? I beat my own wife. What does it have to do with you?" Xu Damao said, pointing at Yi Zhonghai and the others.
"Xu Damao, you still think that no one knows about your embarrassing deeds, right? Do you want us to publicize it everywhere?" Yi Zhonghai said with a frown.
"Speak, speak up. It's already embarrassing, why are you afraid of this?"
Xu Damao drank a lot today and was very bold. There were many things he didn't dare to say before, but today he had no worries.
I don’t know if it was the alcohol that emboldened him or if he was just trying to throw the jar into despair.
Anyway, Xu Damao is determined to go all out today.
