Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 928 Another Conference
Wang Li also had a little girl who liked to join in the fun. She pointed to the ladder on the side of the west wing and said, "Brother Xiaowu, if you climb up that ladder, you can see the entire middle courtyard of that yard from the roof. If they have a meeting in the middle courtyard, you can watch the fun from there. My brother always goes there."

Wang Li also wanted to go to the roof, but Wang Zhan never agreed. Firstly, he considered safety, and secondly, he didn't want Wang Li to see those messy things.

Xiaowu looked at Xiaosi, Xiaosi looked at Xiaowu, and the two of them suddenly stood up, rushed out, and went straight to the ladder.

Wang Zhan also wanted to go and see, but he turned back to look at Wang Li. Wang Li giggled and said, "Brother, if you want to go, go ahead. I'll go to the front yard to see Dayu and Xiaoyu."

Wang Zhan was happy and slowly walked out of the main room. After a while, three half-grown boys were sitting on the roof of the west wing, looking down in the direction of Courtyard No. 95.

In the middle courtyard of No. 95 Courtyard, everyone in the courtyard gathered in the middle courtyard, chatting with each other, and children were running around in the courtyard from time to time. There was a square table in front of Sha Zhu's house, with a chair in the direction of Sha Zhu's house, and one on each side of the square table.

Wang Zhan whispered, "It looks like the managers haven't shown up yet."

Because of the angle, they could only see half of the yard, and the other half was blocked by the east wing of the compound.

Xiaowu said, "We never hold meetings in our courtyard. No matter what happens, the adults always discuss it among themselves, right, Xiaosi?"

"Don't you see that there are only six households in our yard? How many households are there in this yard? If we don't hold a meeting, how can the instructions and policies from above be conveyed?" Xiao Si said.

Wang Zhan said, "It would be great if the meeting was held normally. This courtyard has meetings every now and then. If two people fight, they have to hold a meeting to talk it out. They are all just doing nothing."

Xiaowu said: "I think it's great, it makes it more colorful, I want to move here and participate."

At this time, Yan Bugui was seen sitting on a chair on the right side. He looked unhappy. He put his teacup on the table and lit a cigarette.

After a few minutes, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong came in one after another. They both came from the backyard. Liu Haizhong took his teacup and sat down on the left side. After Yi Zhonghai sat down, he looked in the direction of his home and saw that an old lady named Li Cuilan brought his teacup to him.

Yi Zhonghai smiled and looked around, apparently to see if everyone had arrived. Then he cleared his throat and said, "It seems that everyone is here. We are going to have an impromptu meeting today. This meeting was requested by Second Uncle Liu Haizhong. Let Second Uncle tell us what the specific matter is."

Yi Zhonghai made a brief opening statement, and then handed the scene over to the second uncle Liu Haizhong. Liu Haizhong also cleared his throat, then glared at Yan Bugui fiercely and shouted directly: "Is Yan Jiecheng here? Come to the front."

Yan Jiecheng was hiding in a corner near the Lotus Gate at this time. He already knew why the meeting was held today. It was Yang Ruihua, the third aunt, who told him secretly. He thought that the second uncle would target his father first, so he thought that if the situation was not good, he would sneak away.

He never expected that Liu Haizhong would come looking for him first. Although Yan Jiecheng had been fooling around for a while when he just graduated, that was because he relied on the fighting skills of his classmates. He was just a follower behind them. In fact, he was still timid and calculating.

Yan Jiecheng saw that he couldn't escape, so he walked to the open space in front. Liu Haizhong looked at Yan Jiecheng with hatred and asked directly: "Yan Jiecheng, did you sneak into my second son's cleaning team to work?" Yan Jiecheng rolled his eyes and said, "Second uncle, you blame me wrongly. I just mentioned to your second son that there was a quota in the cleaning team. It was his own decision to go there. It has nothing to do with me."

Liu Guangqi sneered and said, "Yan Jiecheng, you are full of lies. Let me tell you the truth. I heard everything you said in the west wing. You have to tell the truth."

"Boss Liu, were you eavesdropping?" Yan Jiecheng was shocked. He had always thought that it was Liu Laoer who let the cat out of the bag. It turned out that Liu Guangqi had heard the entire conversation between the two that day.

Liu Haizhong sneered and said, "You still want to charge Liu Guangtian 40 yuan, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiecheng, you are really good."

Yan Jiecheng argued, "I also contributed, and your second son agreed to it himself."

"You still dare to say that? I've already asked the street office. As long as there are unemployed young people who want to join the cleaning team, they can join. Do they need your introduction?" Liu Haizhong said.

Yan Jiecheng stood there in embarrassment. He knew what was going on. He was just plotting against Liu Guangtian. Yan Jiecheng looked to his father for help.

Yan Bugui looked at Yan Jiecheng, feeling a little disappointed, but he was his family after all, so he coughed and said, "Old Liu, you can't say that. After all, my eldest son has already informed the captain, and now the captain must be taking good care of your second son. Isn't it normal to charge him some hard work fee?"

Yan Jiecheng quickly agreed, "Yes, Second Uncle, Captain Yang and I have a very special relationship. I have already told him that I will definitely not let your second son do the dirtiest and most tiring work. By the way, why don't you ask your second son?"

It was only then that everyone realized that there was no trace of Liu Guangtian in the yard. Liu Haizhong didn't know how to answer. Liu Guangtian had been chased away by him three days ago and had not returned yet.

When the two sides were in a stalemate, Yi Zhonghai spoke. He looked at Liu Haizhong and said, "Neighbors in the yard, do you understand?"

The neighbors in the compound gave different answers. Some said they understood, while others said they didn't. Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, "Then I'll explain it briefly. You all should know that Liu Guangtian graduated from junior high school this year. There are still three or four months before graduation. Just a month ago, Yan Jiecheng of the Yan family privately found Liu Guangtian and offered to help him find a job as a street sweeper for 40 yuan. The salary was 10 yuan per month. After that, Liu Guangtian privately went to the school to apply for suspension and went to work in the cleaning team. Do you understand now?"

In an instant, everyone was talking about it, and most of them blamed Yan Jiecheng, thinking that as a neighbor in the compound, it was a bit unkind for him to plot against a child who had not yet graduated.

Yan Bugui's face darkened instantly. Yi Zhonghai continued, "Liu Guangtian was a little impulsive in this matter, but Yan Jiecheng made such an idea and did it without the knowledge of the Liu family, especially their parents. This is a bit wrong. We have always advocated respecting the elderly and loving the young, and being filial to parents. This matter was done without the knowledge of the second uncle and the second aunt, and he also calculated forty yuan from Liu Guangtian, an ignorant child. This is even more unkind. Old Liu, what do you want? Come on, tell me."

Yan Bugui understood why Yi Zhonghai came out of the backyard before the meeting. This was something the two of them had discussed. He stopped talking and just stared at Liu Haizhong. Liu Haizhong looked at Yan Bugui proudly and said, "Dear neighbors, let me tell you about this. My second child is a child who is not yet sixteen years old. This time he was also cheated by Yan Jiecheng. I have two requests. First, the Yan family compensates us forty yuan. Second, Yan Jiecheng must apologize in public."

As soon as Liu Haizhong finished speaking, "Impossible!" Yan Bugui and Yan Jiecheng shouted at the same time.
