Upon hearing Xu Damao's words, the deaf old woman flew into a rage.
"Xu Damao, who are you calling a beggar? You little brat, I'll tear your mouth apart."
As she spoke, the deaf old woman, holding her cane, tremblingly lunged at Xu Damao.
Sha Zhu quickly grabbed the deaf old lady, "Oh dear, my grandma, it's not worth getting angry with a silly bird that only cares about spreading its tail feathers and showing its butt. It'll only make you sick. It's not worth it."
Xu Damao dusted off his pants, unconcerned about the deaf old woman's posture as if she was about to rush over.
She glanced at Sha Zhu, then a sneer appeared in the corner of her eye. "Oh, old lady, I didn't name names. Why are you so agitated? You're the matriarch of this compound. You should show some composure and stop making such a fuss."
The deaf old woman trembled with anger at Xu Damao's two sentences. When Yi Zhonghai was still in power, let alone Xu Damao, who in this compound dared to say a harsh word to him!
"You despicable wretch, you're the worst-hearted person in the whole hospital."
Immediately, the deaf old woman pointed at Xu Damao and started cursing.
Sha Zhu also lost his temper, "Xu Damao, you son of a bitch! I'm telling you, you can curse me, but if you curse my grandma, I'll kill you."
Seeing that Sha Zhu was about to pounce, Xu Damao quickly took a big step back.
He's wearing the best clothes he's ever had. That silly boy, Zhu, always trips and falls. He's showing off his clothes to his girlfriend.
"Silly Zhu, you're talking nonsense. When did I ever curse the old lady? Don't spout this nonsense."
Xu Damao's voice softened as he spoke.
Sha Zhu released the deaf old woman's arm and stepped in front of Xu Damao. "Xu Damao, you must apologize to my grandma today."
A flicker of panic crossed Xu Damao's face, but he quickly regained his composure. "Shazhu, what do you think you're doing? You want to hit someone in front of Dabao?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Dabao exclaimed, "Wow, I'm not Liu Haizhong, why are you bringing me up?"
You're hoping I'll break up your fight, aren't you?!
However, since Xu Damao had spoken, he couldn't just stand by and do nothing, as it would be difficult to explain later.
"Alright, Pillar, that's enough with the banter, don't actually fight."
Wang Dabao stepped forward to advise him, then gave Xu Damao a look, "Damao, you should go and check the equipment. It'll be time to show the movie soon after dark. Don't let the equipment malfunction. Go and test it first."
"Yes, Da Bao, you're right. I need to go check it out, in case someone has damaged it."
Xu Damao stared warily at Sha Zhu, afraid that the idiot would come up and hit him, then he ran away along the corner of the wall.
Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and shouted, "Xu Damao, you son of a bitch, if it weren't for the movie showing tonight, I would have beaten you so badly you wouldn't be able to find your way home."
As he spoke, Sha Zhu bent down to find a stone on the ground to throw at Xu Damao, but Wang Dabao quickly stopped him.
"Alright, Zhuzi, if you really break it, the movie won't be showing tonight. Not only will Lao Liu and Lao Yan not forgive you, but all the neighbors in this courtyard will not let you off the hook."
"Alright, I'll give you face this time, Da Bao, otherwise I would have crippled him."
Sha Zhu angrily returned to the deaf old woman's side.
Wang Dabao sighed, thinking to himself, "Silly Zhu, silly Zhu, Da Mao is already ruined!"
I just don't know if you did it.
"If you get Zhu Zi and cripple him, who will show us movies? You insulted him, and now he has to show you movies. Isn't that great?!"
"Yes, that's exactly how it is. You're so thoughtful, Da Bao."
As he spoke, Sha Zhu chuckled.
"Let's go, let's go to the Intermediate People's Court." Wang Dabao took the lead and walked towards the Intermediate People's Court.
Even before entering the Intermediate People's Court, I could hear a cacophony of sounds.
The curtain was set up in front of Yi Zhonghai's house, and the neighbors from the three courtyards next door had already arranged their respective seats, with men and women sitting separately as usual.
An older woman and two older women were selling melon seeds and peanuts at a stall against the south wall.
Yu Li's roasted sweet potato stall moved to the area where Qin Huairu's family used to hang clothes to dry. Not far away was Xu Damao and his projection equipment, and further north was Qin Huairu's tea stall.
At this time, there were people buying things at each stall, and several people were enthusiastically greeting customers.
Then a clear voice called out, "Sweet potatoes are two cents each, or three cents for two."
Wang Dabao looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl with a ponytail and wearing a cotton coat helping Yu Li. She looked to be about the same age as He Yushui.
It's already dark, and although there are lights over there, it's still hard to see faces clearly.
However, Wang Dabao could tell that this girl was definitely Yu Haitang.
Didn't you see that Xu Damao went home and changed his clothes?
"Brother, why did you take so long? Hurry up and help Grandma over there."
He Yushui rushed over in a hurry, and then saw Wang Dabao next to her. "Brother Dabao, where are you watching the movie? Why don't you come over to my house? My brother has brought out the stove, it's warm over there."
Upon hearing this, Wang Dabao exclaimed, "Wow, Sha Zhu is really good to the deaf old lady! He even moved the stove to the doorway to keep her warm!"
"Oh, it's Rain Water. It's been a few days since I've seen you. You've gotten even prettier, girl. I won't go over there. I'll go back to sleep soon," Wang Dabao said.
He Yushui blushed instantly after being praised by Wang Dabao, and didn't dare to look at his face anymore. It was the first time she had been praised by such a handsome person: "Brother Dabao, I think you are the most cultured among the young people in our institute. I would like to ask you a question sometime."
"ah?"
Wang Dabao was taken aback by He Yushui's sudden words. "Okay, is that all? Then we'll wait until you come back from your next stay next week."
Upon hearing Wang Dabao's quick agreement, He Yushui's face immediately lit up with a smile: "My school is on holiday and won't reopen for quite a while after the New Year."
Sha Zhu, who was standing nearby, was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "You really are my good sister. I didn't know you were on holiday. I thought you had to go back to school tomorrow."
"You're so busy all day, I don't have time to talk to you."
He Yushui muttered to herself, then looked at Wang Dabao, "Then, Brother Dabao, when you have time, I'll come find you. You can come to my place too."
Wang Dabao and He Yushui chatted as if no one else was around.
After a while, He Yushui finally helped the deaf old woman over with Sha Zhu.
Only then did Wang Dabao have time to look around and see if Wang Tiangao had arrived. He had already informed his uncle of the movie time in advance, and Wang Tiangao had also said he would come.
I looked around the crowd but couldn't find him.
Come to think of it, Wang Tiangao should have gone to the backyard to find him first.
