A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 977 Yi Zhonghai's Incident! (Please subscribe!)

The canteen was in chaos. He Daqing chased the canteen director with a kitchen knife. The others were at a loss. When Deputy Director Li saw this, he subconsciously stepped back a few steps. Director Yang shouted:

"He Daqing, stop it, what do you want to do?"

He Daqing's eyes were red and he could not hear Director Yang's voice at all. He kept asking Sha Zhu to stop the canteen director so that he could take the opportunity to stab him.

No matter how dumb Sha Zhu is, he knows that killing is against the law. What's more, he hasn't figured out what's going on yet. His father, who has disappeared for several years, suddenly appears and wants to kill their cafeteria director. This is so fantastic no matter how you think about it. Who can tell him whether to stop him or not? I'm waiting online anxiously.

Director Yang turned around and saw Hua Twelve, and immediately felt like he had seen a savior:

"Twelve, it would be great if you, the security chief, were here. Quickly subdue He Daqing and don't let him cause any deaths!"

  When Hua Shier saw Director Yang speak, he stopped watching and stepped forward, grabbed He Daqing's arm, twisted the knife away, threw it on the chopping board beside him, and then began to persuade him:

"Uncle He, stop making trouble. If you kill him, you will also be shot. The factory director is here. If you have any grievances, tell him. Both factory directors can help you!"

Director Yang also hurried to comfort him: "He Daqing, what are you doing? We haven't seen each other for so many years, and when we meet, you're shouting and yelling for war. You can't even talk properly!"

  He Daqing also came back to his senses, and when he saw Director Yang, he quickly complained:

"Director, you don't know that this guy named Wu is not a human being!"

"Oh, tell me in detail what it is. Don't worry, if you are right, I will definitely help you!"

Director Yang glanced at Director Wu and saw that the canteen director was hiding behind several canteen employees with a guilty look on his face. He knew that something must be wrong.

He Yuzhu saw that his father had calmed down and stepped forward with some dissatisfaction:

"Why are you here? You are not welcome here. Go away. You are not an employee of the steel mill anymore. Don't make trouble here."

  As he spoke, he glanced at Hua Twelve, with a sarcastic look on his face:

"I don't know what the security department does for. They call themselves war heroes, but they can't even guard the gate and let anyone in!"

These words made both the director and deputy director frown.

He Daqing stamped his feet in anger: "You idiot, you didn't even know you were sold out. I'm here to help you. Our family has been cheated!"

He was too lazy to talk to his stupid son and turned to look at Director Yang:

"Director, please judge for me. When I left our steel mill, I left my workstation to my son Zhuzi. Logically, my son Zhuzi learned from the Sichuan cuisine master chef of Fengzeyuan, and he was my replacement. He should be assessed upon entering the factory, and if he passes, he should be treated as a regular employee. Isn't that right?"

Director Yang nodded: "Yes, that's right. Is there anything wrong?"

  He Daqing, canteen director:

"Before I left, I went to find this guy surnamed Wu, and he said the same thing. I even gave him a gift and asked him to help me take care of my Sha Zhu. But as soon as I left, he became a disrespectful person and made my Sha Zhu an apprentice for three years. How could he bully others like this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone understood what was going on and looked at Director Wu.

The entire steel rolling mill knew how good He Yuzhu was at cooking. Even the leaders of outside units said he was good and there was absolutely no possibility that he would fail the assessment. But this guy named Wu suppressed him for three years. This was really unfair.

  He Yuzhu had always been at odds with Director Wu. Now that he knew that the other party had suppressed him for three years, he recalled the miserable situation he and his sister He Yushui had gone through when He Daqing had just left, when they had to go hungry for three meals in two days. His eyes suddenly turned red:

"Fuck you, your ancestor's surname is Wu. I'm going to fight you!"

He picked up the kitchen knife that Hua Twelve had just thrown down and rushed towards Director Wu. Old Wu felt guilty, so he turned around and ran, but he didn't know what to do and fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing that He Yuzhu's kitchen knife was about to fall, the director and deputy director were all shocked and shouted: "Stop him, stop him quickly!"

It was Hua Twelve who took action again, grabbing He Yuzhu's wrist and preventing him from chopping with the kitchen knife:

"Silly Zhu, don't be impulsive, be reasonable!"

"Get out of here!"

Sha Zhu simply wouldn't listen to any advice at this time. Seeing Hua Twelve trying to stop him, he rushed towards Hua Twelve and hit him with his left fist.

Hua Shier didn't tolerate him either. He grabbed Sha Zhu's left hand with his other hand, then crossed his hands, swept his feet, and knocked He Yuzhu to the ground. He kicked the kitchen knife out of his hand, then stepped on Sha Zhu's neck to make him unable to move, then bent down and slapped him in the face.

"Are you awake now?"

Sha Zhu's head was buzzing from the beating, but he still refused to accept it:

"Hua Twelve, you sneak attacked me again!"

"Ouch!"

Hua Twelve raised his foot and hooked his finger jokingly: "Don't accept it, right? Come on, I'll let you use both your hands and feet!"

He Yuzhu had also fallen down at the Temple of Heaven. He jumped up, got into position, and pounced forward.

Hua Shier said to use both hands and feet, so he used both hands and feet. He faced He Yuzhu, stepped forward and fought him closely. With a "bang", Sha Zhu was stuck to the five-meter outer wall, slid down the wall, and sat on the ground.

  Beating someone is like hanging a painting!

It only took a few seconds for the two of them to start fighting, and before anyone could try to stop him, Sha Zhu had already sat on the ground.

"Stupid column!"

He Daqing saw Sha Zhu being knocked several meters away, and was worried that something might have happened to his son, so he rushed forward to check. Hua Shier comforted him from behind:

"Don't worry, Uncle He, I have an accurate hand. He will just feel sore and weak at most, but he will recover soon!"

He Yuzhu sat on the ground, came back to his senses, and said, "Close to me, you practice Baji."

  Director Yang and Deputy Director Li were worried at first that He Yuzhu was injured, but now they saw that he was fine. Thinking of Hua Twelve's skills just now, they felt that they had opened their eyes and couldn't help but sigh:

"No wonder Comrade Twelve was able to beat more than 20 enemy agents so hard that they couldn't even raise their heads. They are combat heroes, and their reputation is well-deserved!"

Hua Twelve said a few polite words, and then reminded: "Director, you should deal with Master He's matter first, and don't cause any more trouble!"

  Director Yang also reacted and quickly asked the pale canteen director:

"Old Wu, tell me, what's going on?"

The canteen director could not bear the pressure. He knew that if he did not tell the truth, not only would he be embarrassed by the factory director, but also, considering the temper of the He family father and son, his life might be in danger. So he simply told the truth:

"He Daqing did come to me at first. After Shazhu entered the factory, I also planned to arrange for him to be graded. But Master Yi from the first workshop found me and gave me two packs of cigarettes and two bottles of wine. He said that He Yuzhu was still young and it would be best to let him train for a few more years. So I... I just..."

He didn't say anything, but everyone understood what was going on. It turned out that someone was trying to make things difficult for He Yuzhu to take over.

Director Yang asked, "Which Master Yi in Workshop 1? Yi Zhonghai?"

Director Wu nodded: "It's Yi Zhonghai!" He Yuzhu's eyes widened in disbelief: "Nonsense, how could such a good man like Yi Zhonghai harm me? You are talking nonsense!"

"I don't know what your relationship with Yi Zhonghai is, but he was the one who asked me to arrange a three-year apprenticeship for you. Believe it or not!"

Director Yang also turned serious: "Are you telling the truth?"

Director Wu knew that his career as a director had come to an end, and he was dejected: "Why would I continue to lie now? It's Yi Zhonghai!"

He Daqing slapped his thigh and said, "I immediately guessed it was this old guy!"

He looked at his stupid son and said, "Silly Zhuzi, you really think that old man is a good person. We were fooled by him!"

He Yuzhu was a little confused, not knowing whether he should believe it or not.

Director Yang ordered: "Tell the security department to go to workshop one and call Yi Zhonghai over!"

Someone immediately went to the canteen director's office and called the security department. After waiting for less than twenty minutes, two security officers came to find Yi Zhonghai.

When Yi Zhonghai heard that Director Yang called him, he was confused and didn't know what it was about. But when he saw He Daqing next to Sha Zhu, his head suddenly skipped a beat and he was stunned. His mind was full of thoughts, why did he come back? How could he come back?

  He Daqing saw Yi Zhonghai's shocked and guilty look and knew that he was right. It must be the old man's fault. He sneered:

"Old Yi, you didn't expect me to come back, right? Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

"This"

Yi Zhonghai was completely speechless.

Director Yang looked at Yi Zhonghai, his eyes no longer as friendly as before:

"Master Yi, Director Wu of the cafeteria said that it was you who asked him to suppress He Yuzhu for three years and not give him a permanent job. I want to ask you if this is true?"

Yi Zhonghai's mind was in a mess, and he subconsciously explained: "I just think Zhuzi is too young, and I want him to exercise."

He Yuzhu was struck by lightning: "Uncle, is it really you?"

  Then his eyes turned red again:

"What are you thinking? Yushui and I relied on my salary. Yushui was always sick when he was a child, and medical treatment also costs money. We went hungry three times a day. You said my father was guilty of leaving us two alone, but what about you? You let that bastard surnamed Wu oppress me for three years. Aren't you guilty of that?"

Yi Zhonghai moved his lips, but he didn't explain anything in the end. His face was full of regret:

"It was the uncle who did the wrong thing!"

He Daqing sneered: "Yi Zhonghai, Zhuzi said that you said I was guilty in front of him and Yushui. I understand now that you are trying to sow discord between us. I will report to the police station. You can just wait to be jailed!"

  As the leader of the steel mill, Director Yang did not want to make a big fuss. When he heard He Daqing say to report to the police station, he frowned:

"He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai was wrong in this matter. I will give you an explanation, and the factory will punish him, but this is not illegal, so there is no need to report it to the police station!"

  He Daqing burst into tears:

"Director Yang, you have to make the decision for me. Do you think that Yi Zhonghai has only this little thing to deal with? Look at what this is."

  He took out a piece of paper from his pocket. It was covered with pen writing and there was a red official seal at the bottom:

"When I left, my daughter hadn't even started primary school yet. How could I feel at ease? Over the years, I sent ten yuan a month to my daughter for living expenses. This money was collected by Yi Zhonghai on my behalf. This is the certificate the post office wrote to me.

"Director Yang, please ask Yi Zhonghai if he gave the money to my children!"

Everyone was shocked. They all knew that He Daqing had been gone for more than ten years. Even if it was ten years, that was 120 yuan a year, which would be 1,200 yuan in ten years. How could Yi Zhonghai have embezzled so much money?

Director Yang didn't even need to ask. When he saw Yi Zhonghai's guilty look with cold sweat on his forehead, he knew that He Daqing had not wronged him.

He Yuzhu's worldview was completely shattered: "Uncle, are you greedy for the money my father sent back?"

Yi Zhonghai said with a stiff face: "Zhu Zi, I am afraid that you are young and will become bad if you have money. Whenever you need money, I will lend it to you. You can't be a man without conscience!"

The fool was so angry that he laughed:

"My nickname is Shazhu, but I'm not really stupid. You embezzled more than a thousand yuan from my family, and you asked me to be grateful for lending me a few melons and dates. You also asked me to be filial to the elderly. My father ran away, who should I be filial to? Is it you, uncle? You are setting a trap for me. You use my family's money and sell my family's goods, and you still make money. You are worthy of being you, Yi Zhonghai"

Yi Zhonghai was struck by lightning, and took two steps back unsteadily: "You...you...what did you call me?"

He Daqing spat, "Bah, I'll call you Yi Zhonghai, what else can I call you? Do you want my son to call you dad?"

After he finished cursing, he turned to look at Director Yang:

"Director, it's not illegal for him to suppress my son, but it's illegal for him to take the money I use to support my daughter. I want to report it to the police station, please don't stop me."

"Well, Lao He, Yi Zhonghai is an eighth-level worker in our factory. Without him, our production tasks will be delayed a lot. You live in the same courtyard, you are old neighbors and old acquaintances. If there is something that cannot be discussed, why don't you study it and see how he can compensate you. Can this matter be settled privately?"

Director Yang still couldn't bear to let go of an eighth-level worker.

Yi Zhonghai nodded quickly: "I am willing to apologize and compensate, I am willing to compensate!"

He Daqing also showed hesitation on his face. In the future, they, father and son, would most likely depend on the steel mill, so he had to take Director Yang's words seriously.

  Hua Shier saw that this was not going to work, and said:

"Director, Yi Zhonghai has violated the law. This is not something our factory can control. If you want to persuade He Daqing to settle the matter privately, people who know you will think you are kind-hearted. People who don't know will think that our steel mill is more powerful than the law. We can suppress major cases involving thousands of yuan. If this gets out, it will be very unpleasant."

Director Yang was stunned for a moment, knowing that Hua Shier was right. Not to mention others, just look at Deputy Director Li next to him. If he exaggerated the matter and spread it out, then his job as director would be over.

He immediately sighed and said, "I didn't think it through. Then let the security department investigate first and then transfer it to the police station!"

After saying that, he turned around and left. Deputy Director Li glanced at Hua Twelve, feeling a little regretful. He also felt that this was a good opportunity to bring down Director Yang, but unfortunately Hua Twelve reminded him, so he left the kitchen immediately.

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he pointed at Hua Twelve and was speechless. If it weren't for this guy, He Daqing would have agreed to settle the matter privately.

Hua Twelve laughed: "I brought He Shu'er back from Baoding. Are you happy? No need to thank me!"

"You're the one who hurt me!"

Hua Twelve kicked Yi Zhonghai to the ground, then stepped on his head:

"I hurt you? You're breaking the law, you know that!"
