Leisurely Days in the Courtyard

Returning to 1955, I began a life of lively chaos and leisure in that legendary Siheyuan. Let's see how a modern person can live their own little life by "gouging" (playing it safe/layi...

The news of being scammed in Chapter 2014 spread.

Aunt Erda, who was outside with her neighbors, heard Liu Guangqi and Wu Yu arguing inside. As their voices grew louder, Aunt Erda quickly rushed back inside.

"Alright, alright, can you two stop arguing? There are still quite a few people in the backyard!"

"Don't you guys think you're shameful enough?!"

Auntie Er was furious. She had a bad feeling that something must have happened at home.

I just saw the two of them rushing back from outside, looking furious. If the neighbors hadn't stopped me to chat, I would have come back immediately to ask them what happened.

As a result, in the short time I was outside with my neighbor, I heard two people arguing inside the house.

Now everyone in the compound knows that Liu Guangqi and Wu Yu were fooled by Xu Damao.

"So what if I heard it? It's no big deal!"

Wu Yu didn't know anyone else in the compound, so he didn't care at all about whether it was embarrassing or not.

Wu Yu even thought it would be better if this matter became a big deal, because if it did, she might have a chance to get her money back.

More importantly, Wu Yu's current concern is not whether she can get the money back from Xu Damao.

Now Wu Yu is worried about whether she can get any more money from Liu Haizhong's family.

You should know that you still have dirt on Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi, and your main purpose in coming here is to get money from this father and son.

Now that I know their family situation, they don't have any extra money, and they've borrowed 500 yuan from outside.

If I ask them for money again, I don't know if I can get it back. If I can't, I'll be at a huge loss.

Because regardless of whether this matter actually happened or not, Liu Guangqi still needed to pay himself off.

"Wu Yu, shut up!"

"This whole mess was caused by you. If it weren't for you, things wouldn't have come to this!"

When Liu Guangqi saw Wu Yu arguing with his second aunt, he loudly reprimanded her.

Wu Yu pursed his lips and remained silent. He didn't want to fight Liu Guangqi right now, as it would do him no good.

"Son, what exactly happened?"

"How did things get to this point? Were we scammed by Xu Damao?"

The second aunt continued to ask Liu Guangqi questions, somewhat incredulously.

You should know that during the time Liu Guangqi was away from home, he had already suffered a lot at Xu Damao's hands.

Now that Liu Guangqi is back, his family is still going to suffer at Xu Damao's hands.

When Liu Guangqi heard his second aunt ask about this, his face turned even uglier, and he nodded with a gloomy expression.

"That's right, we were planning to set a trap for Xu Damao, but we didn't expect that Xu Damao had already seen through it and turned the tables on us!"

"Now Xu Damao has taken the 500 yuan my dad borrowed and disappeared somewhere!"

Liu Guangqi explained to his second aunt in a low voice.

After hearing Liu Guangqi's account, Aunt Er felt her head buzzing for a moment.

Others may not know what's going on at home, but I do.

Especially after what happened with Yi Zhonghai, the family's finances became even more difficult.

Unfortunately, to make matters worse, I heard this terrible news from Liu Guangqi.

"That bastard Xu Damao!"

The second aunt couldn't help but let out a wail, then turned and ran out of the house.

After running out, Aunt Er ran towards Xu Damao's house while cursing loudly.

"Xu Damao, you bastard, get out here right now!"

"Xu Damao, get out here right now!"

As she howled and cursed, the second aunt arrived at Xu Damao's door and began to kick it shut with all her might.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The people in the compound who witnessed this scene were all taken aback by how things had turned out.

Just now, Haiyong's wife and the others heard Liu Guangqi and Wu Yu arguing inside the house and felt that something was wrong.

So as soon as Liu Guangqi returned home, all these people followed him over and gathered under Liu Haizhong's window to listen to what was happening inside.

However, no one knows exactly what happened. All that is known is that Liu Haizhong's family was swindled out of 500 yuan by Xu Damao.

After all, the news that Liu Haizhong had gone to the courtyard to borrow money had already spread throughout the compound.

However, everyone lent the money to Liu Haizhong because he was a senior employee in the factory. But no one expected that the 500 yuan they lent would be swindled away by Xu Damao.

Everyone was especially shocked when they saw Aunt Er run out of the house in a frenzy and run to Qin Jingru's house, cursing and swearing.

When Liu Guangqi saw his second aunt run out, he quickly jogged after her, catching up with her only when they reached Xu Damao's house.

"Stop filming! Xu Damao and Qin Jingru have already slipped away!"

"I already searched their house when I got back!"

Liu Guangqi didn't want to lose face in front of everyone in the compound, so he had no choice but to come out and stop Aunt Er.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Er felt a buzzing in her head. If Liu Guangqi hadn't reacted quickly, Aunt Er would have fallen to the ground.

"They've gone into hiding?"

Aunt Er opened her eyes in disbelief and glanced at Liu Guangqi.

"Why!"

“Yes, they hid away early this morning!” Liu Guangqi said to his second aunt with some difficulty.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let me help you home first!"

Liu Guangqi looked at the crowd gathered in the courtyard, not wanting to explain anything to them, so he could only tell his second aunt to go home first.

The second aunt didn't say much, but let Liu Guangqi help her home.

However, since everyone in the compound had gathered around, they certainly wouldn't let Second Aunt and Liu Guangqi off the hook, especially Haiyong's wife, who loved gossip.

"Guangqi, what happened to your family?"

"What happened? Tell everyone and see if they can help you!"

Haiyong's wife, with a serious expression, led everyone to the two of them and asked.

Liu Guangqi forced a grim smile and replied, "It's nothing, nothing at all. It's just that we had a little trouble with Xu Damao's family!"

"It's not a big deal, so everyone doesn't need to worry!"

Liu Guangqi gave a few perfunctory replies, then helped his second aunt and quickly ran home.

The people in the compound simply didn't believe what Liu Guangqi said. If it weren't something serious, Aunt Er wouldn't have been so agitated.

Besides, everyone had heard that Liu Haizhong's family had been swindled out of 500 yuan.
