Chapter 301 Only officials are allowed to set fires, while ordinary people are forbidden to light lamps.
Li Qin and Xu Damao strolled aimlessly around the courtyard while smoking.
Finally, they arrived at the Intermediate People's Court.
At this time, there were also quite a few people enjoying the cool air in the courtyard.
Yi Zhonghai and his wife, the Jia family, He Yuzhu and He Yushui, Tie Niu and his grandmother....
Besides those who already lived in the middle courtyard, there were other residents in the front and back courtyards.
At this moment, some people were chatting casually, while others were playing chess. There were also many people watching from the surrounding area, and some people were washing themselves in front of the pool. When they saw Li Qin and Xu Damao walking over, everyone greeted them.
Li Qin and Xu Damao quickly responded to the greetings from these people.
After all, one still needs to maintain proper social etiquette, unless the two of them don't want to stay in this courtyard house anymore, or they don't care about their reputation.
After greeting everyone, Li Qin suddenly noticed that Xu Damao, who was standing next to him, looked a little off.
At this moment, Xu Damao's eyes were fixed on one direction, and Li Qin could see a lewd look in Xu Damao's eyes.
At the same time, a lecherous expression appeared on Xu Damao's face.
Li Qin subconsciously followed Xu Damao's gaze.
next second.
Li Qin's lips twitched involuntarily.
At the same time, a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
It turned out that Xu Damao was looking in the direction of the pool, and at that moment, there were several people washing themselves in front of the pool.
The majority of them were middle-aged women in their forties, but among them was a young married woman.
This person was none other than Qin Huairu, Jia Dongxu's wife.
At this moment, Qin Huairu was tidying her hair and washing clothes.
In summer, people wear light clothing, and with the added sweat from washing up, Qin Huairu's clothes clung tightly to her body.
It perfectly showcases Qin Huairu's figure.
Most importantly, because of washing clothes, Qin Huairu's clothes on her chest were very wet, giving people a hazy, indistinct feeling.
Even Li Qin, who had no interest in Qin Huairu, couldn't help but be momentarily stunned when he suddenly saw her.
Xu Damao was a lecherous man, and being a young man, he was also very hot-tempered.
In addition, people are naturally a bit restless in the summer.
So when Xu Damao saw this scene, he was immediately attracted and stared at it intently.
Li Qin was somewhat helpless about Xu Damao's performance and could only shake his head inwardly.
"As expected of the old pervert from the original work, he's already starting to show his true colors."
Although he felt that Xu Damao was somewhat lecherous, no matter what, Xu Damao was one of the few younger people in the courtyard who he could talk to.
To avoid embarrassing Xu Damao, Li Qin still planned to wake him up.
But before Li Qin could speak, a voice suddenly rang out in the central courtyard:
"Xu Damao, you little brat, where are you looking? If you don't turn your eyes away, I'll gouge them out and use them as firecrackers."
The person who spoke was He Yuzhu.
At this moment, He Yuzhu was looking at Xu Damao with a face full of anger, his eyes filled with raging fury.
They looked like they could rush up and beat Xu Damao up at any moment.
It turns out that He Yuzhu had been secretly watching Qin Huairu all along.
However, Xu Damao was his lifelong enemy, and He Yuzhu also had no good feelings towards Li Qin, and could even be said to be full of hatred.
Now we see Li Qin and Xu Damao together, chatting and laughing.
He immediately felt that the two of them were no good.
After taking a few more glances, He Yuzhu noticed Xu Damao's unusual expression and gaze.
When He Yuzhu realized that Xu Damao was looking at Qin Huairu, a fire instantly rose in his heart.
It was as if someone else had their eye on something that belonged to them, and the key point was that this person was Xu Damao and He Yuzhu, so they couldn't help but speak up.
Upon hearing He Yuzhu's voice, Xu Damao subconsciously averted his gaze.
At the same time, his eyes unconsciously looked down at his feet, and this evasive manner gave people the feeling of a guilty thief.
Upon hearing He Yuzhu's voice, Li Qin couldn't help but look over.
Upon seeing He Yuzhu's strange expression, Li Qin's lips curled into a mocking smile.
A look of disdain flashed in his eyes.
He had discovered He Yuzhu secretly looking at Qin Huairu more than once before.
It's just that it's relatively hidden.
Li Qin did not say anything about this.
After all, neither Qin Huairu nor He Yuzhu had any connection with Li Qin.
Even if He Yuzhu was spying on Qin Huairu, and even if something actually happened between the two of them in secret, Li Qin wouldn't care.
However, He Yuzhu's current reaction filled Li Qin with disdain.
Xu Damao was also just peeking at Qin Huairu. Even if he had some bad thoughts in his heart, how was he any different from He Yuzhu?
Li Qin didn't believe that He Yuzhu was just glancing at Qin Huairu without any ulterior motives.
Ultimately, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao are no different in this matter.
But now He Yuzhu won't let Xu Damao see it, which is just ridiculous.
Although Xu Damao was a little guilty at first, he quickly realized what was going on.
He immediately looked up at He Yuzhu, his eyes filled with hostility:
"Silly Zhu, what have I done to offend you? You're yelling and cursing at me, and you even tried to gouge out my eyes?"
He Yuzhu's voice was quite loud just now, and everyone in the courtyard was doing their own thing.
His call drew everyone's attention.
These people didn't see Xu Damao's actions just now, so naturally they didn't know what had happened.
Upon hearing Xu Damao's words, everyone looked at He Yuzhu with curiosity.
At this moment, He Yuzhu's face and eyes were full of resentment.
Upon hearing Xu Damao's words, his dissatisfaction and anger became even more apparent.
He Yuzhu said in an unfriendly tone:
"Xu Damao, you bastard, you still have the nerve to ask me? Tell me yourself what you were doing just now!"
If it comes down to a fight, He Yuzhu would never win an argument with Xu Damao if they only talked.
Knowing this, Li Qin simply watched from the sidelines without intervening.
He believed that with Xu Damao's intelligence, he would not easily suffer a loss.
He just needs to watch quietly.
In fact, when He Yuzhu spoke just now, Xu Damao already knew that the other party must have seen him looking at Qin Huairu.
He would naturally not admit to such a thing, nor would he say it himself.
Xu Damao immediately pretended not to understand, looking at He Yuzhu with a puzzled expression:
"Silly Zhu, what you're saying is interesting. I just came from the backyard with Li Qin, and we haven't done anything yet, but you're already acting like you're interrogating me."
I'd like to ask you, what heinous and outrageous thing have I done that I've committed?
He Yuzhu, who was already quite annoyed with Xu Damao, was even more upset when he heard that Xu not only refused to admit his "mistake" but also had the audacity to ask him questions.
He Yuzhu's anger surged, but he still retained his last bit of rationality and did not choose to take action directly. Instead, he looked at Xu Damao with a fierce expression.
