My happy life in a courtyard house with triplets.

Chapter 128: The Jia Family's Workstation is Missing

At this moment, Zhang Lei looked at Xu Damao and couldn't help but secretly praise Xu Damao for being such a brave man, daring to testify in front of Jia Zhangshi. However, the commotion in the Intermediate Court quickly attracted everyone's attention. Yi Zhonghai returned home from get off work and saw the two chasing each other, quickly shouting, "Jia Zhangshi, Xu Damao, stop it!"

Upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's shout, Xu Damao thought Jia Zhangshi wouldn't dare hit him anymore and quickly stopped. Unexpectedly, Sha Zhu tripped him, sending Xu Damao sprawling to the ground. Seeing the opportunity, Jia Zhangshi sat on top of Xu Damao. Pressed down by Jia Zhangshi's large, pig-like body, Xu Damao immediately let out a groan of pain.

Jia Zhangshi wasn't about to let him off the hook. She grabbed Xu Damao by the hair, twisted his ear, and started hitting him. Seeing the chaotic scene, Yi Zhonghai angrily shouted to the young men in the courtyard, "Quickly, pull them apart!"

Zhang Lei joined in as well. However, when Jia Zhangshi saw someone coming, she immediately used a trick, grabbing Xu Damao's penis. Xu Damao immediately cried out in agony. Everyone who saw this, especially the men, felt a chill run down their spines, empathizing with Xu Damao's miserable state. Even Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but shudder.

Hearing Xu Damao's wails, the crowd feared that Jia Zhangshi would ruin Xu Damao, so they quickly stepped forward and pulled the two apart.

At this moment, Jia Zhangshi was determined to cripple Xu Damao. Her hands gripped Xu Damao's genitals tightly like iron clamps, refusing to let go no matter who pulled.

Zhang Lei watched from the side, his eyelids twitching. He thought to himself that Jia Zhangshi was really driven crazy by Xu Damao. If Xu Damao wasn't pulled away soon, he would probably become a eunuch.

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai stamped his feet in frustration and shouted, "Jia Zhangshi, let go right now! If you don't let go, someone will die!"

Madam Jia refused to let go, twisting and yelling, "Xu Damao, you wicked seed! You want to ruin our Jia family! If you dare ruin our Jia family, I'll cripple you!"

Xu Damao rolled on the ground in pain, his cries distorted: "Ouch—help! I'm going to die!"

Seeing that things were really going to get really bad if Zhang Lei kept dragging it out, he didn't hesitate any longer. He quietly circled around behind Jia Zhangshi, seized the opportunity, and kicked her hard in the waist.

Zhang Lei used a clever technique with this kick, causing Jia Zhangshi to cry out in pain, and her grip on his hand loosened instantly.

Taking advantage of the situation, Zhang Lei dragged Xu Damao aside.

Xu Damao was in excruciating pain, his body bent over like a shrimp, clutching his crotch and unable to speak for a long time.

After recovering, Jia Zhangshi tried to lunge forward again, but was held back by Yi Zhonghai and several neighbors.

Zhang Lei squatted down, patted Xu Damao on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Xu Damao, if you don't come up with a solution to this soon, the whole hospital will turn against you."

Xu Damao, sweating profusely from the pain, managed to ask, "Then... what should we do?"

Taking advantage of the situation, Zhang Lei held up two fingers: "Twenty yuan, and I'll teach you a trick."

Xu Damao gritted his teeth and endured the pain, cursing Zhang Lei a thousand times in his heart, but could only say aloud, "Fine... twenty it is."

Zhang Lei leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Later, just pin the whole blame on Yi Zhonghai. Just say that Yi Zhonghai was the one who first said Jia Dongxu was a bad person, and even said at the factory that he wanted to sever his master-disciple relationship with Jia Dongxu. You were just going along with what he said and told him the truth."

Xu Damao was taken aback, then his eyes lit up, and he asked through the pain, "Is...is that feasible?"

Zhang Lei quickly leaned close to his ear and whispered, "It's feasible. Jia Zhangshi extorted so much money from Yi Zhonghai before, and even made Yi Zhonghai lose face at the conference. If we say that Yi Zhonghai is retaliating against the Jia family, Jia Zhangshi will definitely believe it."

Xu Damao took a while to recover before he was finally able to stand up. He was still trembling and could not straighten his back when he walked.

Jia Zhangshi, who was standing to the side, was also held back by the crowd, and she kept cursing.

Despite the pain, Xu Damao took out a wad of change from his pocket, counted out twenty yuan, and handed it to Zhang Lei.

Zhang Lei took the money, secretly pleased: he had made a small profit this time, and the money he spent on buying the old bicycle was back.

Ye Shuqin, watching Zhang Lei's actions, frowned and muttered to herself: "My husband makes money too easily. Are the people in this courtyard too easy to fool?"

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai saw that almost everyone in the courtyard had arrived, and he looked directly at Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui and said, "Old Liu, Old Yan, let's have a meeting. We can't let Jia Zhangshi and Xu Damao continue to cause trouble like this."

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui exchanged a glance and nodded, agreeing with Yi Zhonghai.

So Yi Zhonghai told Sha Zhu to bring out the table from his house, and had someone bring out three stools, setting everything up in preparation for a general meeting.

Upon seeing this spectacle, everyone quickly found places to stand or sit, ready to watch the excitement.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Jia Zhangshi and said in a deep voice, "Jia Zhangshi, calm down first. We're having a general meeting now to resolve your issues. Stop making a scene."

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's words, Jia Zhangshi gradually calmed down, then sat down on the ground and began to accuse him: "Three stewards, you must stand up for me! Look at the good deeds that scoundrel Xu Damao has done!"

Liu Haizhong looked at Jia Zhangshi: "Jia Zhangshi, explain yourself clearly, what exactly did Xu Damao do?"

Jia Zhangshi immediately embellished the story of how Xu Damao testified at the factory, causing Jia Dongxu to lose his job and be fired.

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned, thinking to themselves: Now that Jia Dongxu's leg is broken, someone from the Jia family will definitely need to fill in. With the job gone and no source of income, the whole family will starve. So, they all looked at Xu Damao with some resentment.

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Xu Damao knew things were going badly and quickly stepped forward to defend himself: "Don't listen to Jia Zhangshi's nonsense! The reason I'm standing up to testify is because the head of the personnel department said they've already investigated Jia Dongxu's character and why he broke his leg!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked puzzled.

Yan Fugui quickly stepped forward, his face full of gossip, and asked, "Xu Damao, tell me properly, what exactly did the head of the personnel department say?"

Xu Damao took a deep breath and delivered his prepared statement: "The head of the personnel department said they found out that Jia Dongxu's legs were broken because he owed high-interest loans from gambling! And... and Yi Zhonghai also said at the factory that Jia Dongxu was lazy and unethical at work, and that he wanted to sever his master-apprentice relationship with Jia Dongxu!"

These words caused an uproar throughout the entire college.

All eyes immediately turned to Yi Zhonghai.
