Siheyuan: My Father Is Xu Damao

The neighborhood director even had to consult with the old man in charge of the courtyard when arranging housing. Haha, just how high-ranking was that old man? Back then, the neighborhood director was at least a division-level official.

If Stupid Pig reports you, you won't report him for stealing public grain. You think it's legal for Stupid Pig to bring his lunchbox home every day? The lunchbox is full of fish and meat, he'll be caught every time. You can also report him for embezzling Stupid Pig and his sister's living expenses. If that doesn't work, bring He Daqing over. You'll be dead if you don't die. Long Gou Tai is just a five-guarantee household, the country only gives him that because they pity him. If you want to cause trouble, just go to the street office. What are you filming? Just do it. If Stupid Pig dares to hit you, go straight to the police station and jail.

Xu Damao cannot have children.

Your main character is practically nonexistent; you might as well just delete him. He's just a word-counting tool.

You, a street director, have to consult with an old man to get a house? Is this how street directors are?

The old men in courtyard houses are getting more and more powerful these days. Even the neighborhood head has to ask one of them for permission to allocate housing. Eventually, the Beijing Municipal Party Secretary will probably have to consult with the old man on everything; otherwise, he won't dare to act without the old man's consent. The author has quite the imagination! Impressive!

The idea is good, but the writing is terrible and illogical. Jia is obstructing the street's housing allocation. There's no need for the director to take action himself; the street can just punish him by making him a student or even having him sweep the streets. It's better than doing it yourself. If you do take action, you'll be branded as a bully who oppresses ordinary people. There are so many ways to deal with Jia; it's impossible to just take action directly.

I hope it can be changed so that the protagonist advises Xu Damao from behind the scenes.

You, the main character, are dispensable; you might as well just die.

Xu Damao was portrayed as too poor.
