Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 841 Stubborn Stupid Pillar
Sha Zhu, who was standing at the door of the main room in the middle courtyard, was wearing greasy clothes and had a dishevelled appearance. He had no idea what was going on. He just stared at Director Yang in amazement. There was a brief silence in the courtyard.

It was Li Huaide, the logistics director, who came out and said, "Shazhu, what are you standing there for? I'm here to express my condolences to your family today. Why don't you invite the leaders into the house?"

Sha Zhu woke up from his daze at this time, and hurriedly tried to ask the leaders to go to his room, but he suddenly thought of the mess in his room. If the leaders were allowed to go in, there would be no place to step. Wouldn't it be embarrassing? Sha Zhu is called Sha Zhu, but he is not stupid. He rolled his eyes and said, "Leaders, you see, I am a bachelor, and my room must be a mess. I won't cause trouble for you. The eldest uncle is the leader of our Intermediate Court. His house is clean and tidy. Can you please bear with it and let's talk in detail at Master Yi's house?"

When Director Yang heard this, he knew that Sha Zhu was not lying and that he really couldn't enter his room, so he turned around and said to Yi Zhonghai, "Then I'm sorry to bother you, Master Yi."

Yi Zhonghai, on the contrary, felt very happy. So many leaders came to the courtyard, and they came to my house instead of anyone else's. This was giving face to me, Yi Zhonghai. Such a good thing was hard to find, so he arranged to lead everyone to his house. Yi Zhonghai quickly told Li Cuilan to make tea.

Before the tea was served, the deaf old lady in the backyard appeared and said as soon as she entered the house: "Oh, I heard that Director Yang is here, I have to come and see."

Director Yang was very happy to see the deaf old lady. He immediately stood up and trotted a few steps, saying, "Old lady, why are you here? What did you say? If you want to see someone, I'll go see you."

At this moment, everyone in the room understood that the deaf old lady and Director Yang were old acquaintances and they had a close relationship.

Director Yang helped the deaf old lady sit at the main seat on the north side of the eight-immortals table. Many leaders of the steel rolling mill found chairs temporarily and sat on the side. Now they were watching Director Yang's performance alone with some dissatisfaction.

In the crowd, the logistics director Li Huaide sneered slightly. He felt that Yang Guohua had gone too far. These people who came were all leaders of the steel rolling mill. As a factory director, you don't take care of the people in the factory, but you care about an old lady. It seems that Director Yang's level is not that good.

At this time, Auntie Li Cuilai came in with Sha Zhu, who had just been dressed up. Before Director Yang could say anything, the deaf old lady smiled and said, "My dear grandson, come to your grandma. You have been in the limelight today. Let your grandma take some credit for you."

As Sha Zhu walked towards the deaf old lady, he said, "Grandma, I don't know what happened, and you still say it's a blessing. What if I made a mistake? You will be embarrassed."

Upon hearing this, Director Yang was stunned at first, then looked at Yi Zhonghai who was standing next to him. Yi Zhonghai really wanted to slap Sha Zhu in the face, asking him to talk nonsense without knowing anything. At this time, he reacted quickly and said, "Director Yang, Sha Zhu really doesn't know anything. This kid works hard and concentrates on studying cooking. He doesn't pay attention to anything else. Please bear with me."

Just as Sha Zhu was about to retort, he saw Yi Zhonghai staring at him with murderous eyes. Sha Zhu was not really stupid, so he quickly swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and said nothing.

Director Yang smiled and said, "I understand, good comrade. Let Chief Liu tell you the details. Old Liu, you know the most details. You tell us so that Sha Zhu can also know."

Section Chief Liu was the head of the Propaganda Section. Needless to say, he knew the most comprehensive information. So when he heard Director Yang's instructions, he stood up and walked to Director Yang's side, which was opposite to Sha Zhu's seat, and said, "This is a great thing. Sha Zhu, do you have a sister named He Yushui?" Sha Zhu was confused, but still answered, "Yes, I have a sister named He Yushui."

Section Chief Liu started to talk eloquently with a bit of complacency, saying how difficult it was for Sha Zhu. When He Yushui was still not in school, his father abandoned them, and Sha Zhu raised He Yushui alone. He Yushui and Sha Zhu were also very inspiring. One became the monitor and chef of the cafeteria, and the other became the third ranked elementary school graduate in the city through his own efforts, and so on.

Just when Chief Liu was talking about his excitement and wanted to praise Comrade He Yuzhu, a steel mill worker who was his elder brother, Sha Zhu couldn't help but said, "Wait, Chief Liu, did you make a mistake?"

Section Chief Liu's excitement came to an abrupt end, as if someone had poured cold water on him. Everyone was stunned. Yi Zhonghai knew that this idiot Zhu was unable to come to his senses again and was acting stupid.

Sha Zhu ignored that and said directly: "When my father left, he arranged everything for my sister. I didn't help at all. Besides, my sister and I have severed our relationship. Her affairs have nothing to do with me. Did you make a mistake?"

There was absolute silence in the room. Director Yang was stunned for a moment and looked at Section Chief Liu who was doing the investigation. When Section Chief Liu saw Director Yang looking at him, he turned and looked at Yi Zhonghai. Because all the information was provided by Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai panicked. He didn't know how to explain, so he could only pin his hopes on the deaf old lady sitting in the main seat.

The deaf old lady was very experienced and knew what was going on right away. In the current situation, she was the only one who could break the deadlock. She coughed twice and said, "My dear grandson, don't feel wronged. After all, you are his brother. Even if your bones are broken, your tendons are still connected. Don't you think you have made a contribution?"

Sha Zhu was still thinking in his own way. He felt that he should not take advantage of his sister. Besides, he really did not help his sister with her studies. Instead, his sister often helped him, a brother, which was already very embarrassing. This matter had to be made clear. It had nothing to do with him. It just had nothing to do with him.

Sha Zhu said, "Director Yang, leaders, to be honest, my sister and I broke up the year my father passed away. In the meantime, the people in No. 93 Courtyard supported my sister, but not long after, my sister passed away on her own. I don't know where she is now. I'm sorry, leaders."

Sha Zhu is not a fool. He knows the seriousness of today's incident. If he follows the old lady and Yi Zhonghai's ideas, he will be the victim in the end, so he got himself out of it at the first opportunity.

Director Yang was stunned, and then he remembered the agreement he had with the director of the street office yesterday. The director of the street office was also very annoyed. They said they would gather at 8 o'clock, but the steel rolling mill did not show up. This made Director Wang very angry. Mainly because she had nothing to talk about with these reporters. These reporters were not easy to deal with. They kept asking questions about the slightest matter, and she was afraid of them.

Director Wang looked at the watch on his wrist and saw that it was already 8:10. He took the reporters out of the street office and went straight to Wang Zhan's home without waiting for the people from the steel mill.
