Chapter 241 True Peace
Wang Qiang nodded, but the depression in his heart could not be dispelled. He knew that he could not continue to be passive like this. He had to think of a way to make Xu Damao suffer a great loss, so as to relieve his hatred.
A few days later, Wang Qiang took advantage of the dead of night and took action again. This time, he decided not to just steal chickens or do some other tricks, but to make Xu Damao completely embarrassed. Wang Qiang knew that Xu Damao was most proud of his brand new bicycle, in addition to his chickens. Xu Damao would ride the bicycle around the yard every day to show off his "wealth".
Wang Qiang sneaked into Xu Damao's yard, deflated the tire of his bicycle, and left quickly. The next morning, Xu Damao found that his bicycle could not be ridden, and he was furious. He asked around to find out who did it, but no one paid any attention to him.
Wang Qiang stood aside, watching with cold eyes, feeling a sense of satisfaction in his heart. Xu Damao finally got a taste of being teased, and this was just the beginning. In the next few days, Wang Qiang looked for opportunities to sabotage Xu Damao's little tricks every day. He either broke his bicycle or threw some stones at the door of his house, causing Xu Damao to fall when he went out.
Xu Damao's life was getting worse and worse, but he could never find out who was causing the trouble. Every time Wang Qiang saw Xu Damao in such a mess, he couldn't help laughing. Although these means of revenge seemed a bit childish, they made him feel much better.
One night, Wang Qiang was strolling in the yard when he heard Xu Damao and a few friends discussing a new plan. Xu Damao planned to hold a banquet in the yard and invite all the neighbors to attend to show his "strength". Wang Qiang sneered in his heart and decided to disrupt Xu Damao's banquet.
On the day of the banquet, Wang Qiang prepared several packets of chili powder and a bottle of fish water. He sneaked into the banquet and sprinkled chili powder on the food and poured fish water into Xu Damao's wine glass when Xu Damao was not paying attention. Halfway through the banquet, Xu Damao raised his glass to toast and suddenly found a pungent fishy smell in the glass. He angrily threw the glass to the ground. The spicy smell of the food also made the guests frown, and the scene was in chaos for a while.
Xu Damao was furious, his face flushed and he cursed loudly, so the banquet had to be cancelled. The neighbors dispersed one after another, and Xu Damao's face was extremely ugly. Wang Qiang stood aside, secretly proud of himself. He knew that Xu Damao not only lost face this time, but also lost the respect of his neighbors.
A few days later, Xu Damao's temper became even more violent, and he seemed to always be looking for opportunities to vent his dissatisfaction. Wang Qiang felt more and more that this kind of petty fighting was not enough. He had to find a more effective way to make Xu Damao repent completely.
That day, Wang Qiang met Bai Rong in the yard. Bai Rong was one of the few people in the yard who dared to speak out. She looked at Wang Qiang with a complicated look in her eyes.
"Wang Qiang, have you been going too far recently?" Bai Rong asked straight to the point.
Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Are you talking about Xu Damao? He deserved it."
Bai Rong sighed and said, "I know Xu Damao is not a good person, but if you do this, it will only make things more complicated. We can't use the same method to deal with him, otherwise what's the difference between us and him?"
Wang Qiang was silent for a while, thinking about Bai Rong's words. He knew that Bai Rong was right, but the hatred in his heart was hard to dissipate. Looking at Bai Rong's sincere eyes, Wang Qiang nodded and said, "I understand. I will think of other ways."
In the following days, Wang Qiang began to think about how to deal with Xu Damao in a smarter way. He no longer just did some small tricks, but began to observe Xu Damao's every move and look for his weaknesses. Wang Qiang knew that Xu Damao's biggest weakness was his vanity and self-esteem.
One day, Wang Qiang discovered that Xu Damao was busy with something big recently. He was preparing for a business cooperation, hoping to make a lot of money through this cooperation and further improve his status. Wang Qiang decided to seize this opportunity to make Xu Damao completely embarrassed.
Wang Qiang began to collect information about Xu Damao's partners and used some of his connections to secretly ruin Xu Damao's plan. Xu Damao went to sign the contract with full confidence, but was told at the last minute that the cooperation was cancelled. He angrily questioned the other party, but did not get any satisfactory answer, so he could only return to the yard in disgrace.
Xu Damao's loss and frustration were obvious. Wang Qiang saw it, but he didn't feel much pleasure in his heart. After this, he gradually realized that simple revenge could not solve the problem. What Xu Damao needed was a complete change, and he also needed to find a more permanent solution.
One night, Wang Qiang met He Yuzhu in the yard. He Yuzhu looked at him and said with a smile: "Boy, are you in a bad mood recently?"
Wang Qiang smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Yuzhu, I'm a little tired."
He Yuzhu nodded and said, "I understand that revenge is never the best way to solve problems. We should think about how to make this courtyard better instead of getting involved in endless fighting."
Wang Qiang pondered for a moment and nodded, "You are right, Brother Yuzhu. I will think of a way to make everything better."
From that day on, Wang Qiang began to spend more time communicating with his neighbors to understand their ideas and needs. He gradually realized that to make the courtyard harmonious and beautiful, we must rely on the strength of everyone, not just individual struggles. Wang Qiang decided to start with himself and work hard to change his attitude and behavior.
A few days later, Wang Qiang organized a yard cleaning activity and invited all neighbors to participate. Everyone responded, and Xu Damao also participated in it under Bai Rong's persuasion. Although Xu Damao was still somewhat reluctant, he gradually realized that he could no longer be enemies with his neighbors.
Wang Qiang felt warm in his heart as he watched everyone working together. He knew that this was just the beginning, but as long as everyone worked together, Siheyuan would definitely become better. And he himself would find true peace and satisfaction in the process.
Wang Qiang was strolling in the yard, thinking about how to continue to improve the atmosphere of the courtyard. Suddenly, he saw Xu Damao hurriedly walk into the yard, carrying three chicken cages in his hands, with three lively chickens in them. Xu Damao had a smug smile on his face, as if showing off his new "wealth".
Wang Qiang suddenly felt disgusted. This Xu Damao actually bought chickens again. It seems that he did not learn a single lesson from the previous lesson. Wang Qiang frowned involuntarily, secretly thinking about how to deal with Xu Damao.
