Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 929 Conference Follow-up
The father and son of the Yan family simultaneously rejected Liu Haizhong's request, which caused a lot of discussion among the neighbors.

"Who are the Yan family? They are a family that only takes in and never gives out. They are stingy to the core like Yan Lao. Haha, it will probably be difficult for the second uncle." Sha Zhu's voice came from one side, and the neighbors in the compound laughed.

Yan Bugui glared at Sha Zhu, and Yan Jiecheng said, "Second Uncle, you have to be reasonable. I haven't received a cent so far, why are you asking me to pay you money?"

"Was it your idea to let the second child not study hard? My father is a level six blacksmith, and my family is short of the ten dollars for the second child. You are instigating him, do you know that?" Liu Guangqi said.

Liu Guangqi was determined to teach Yan Jiecheng a lesson, and Yan Jiecheng deliberately concealed the five dollars he had just received in order to find an excuse for himself and also to hide the five dollars from his father. He thought it would kill two birds with one stone and it was a beautiful idea.

"Yes, we just want to teach you, Yan Jiecheng, a lesson. You deserve it for meddling in other people's affairs. If you fail to meet my demands, I will report to the street office. Yan Bugui, you are a teacher, and the children you educate are like this. I wonder what your school leaders think of you if they knew it?" Liu Haizhong said.

The neighbors in the compound were discussing privately, wondering how come the second uncle, who usually had poor speaking skills, could be so eloquent today.

Only Yan Bugui had guessed that these words were probably taught to him by their eldest brother. Yan Bugui hesitated. His reputation in the school had just improved. It would not be a good thing if the principal and the dean knew about this.

Yan Jiecheng was also dumbfounded. His pocket was full of less than 20 yuan. If he wanted to pay compensation, he could only ask his father for help. Then he looked at Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui looked at his eldest son and suddenly remembered that he was going to work in a textile factory. He also remembered Yan Jiecheng's salary. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Old Liu, I agree to your request, but forty yuan is too much. It's at most ten yuan. No one's money comes from the wind."

"No, at least thirty, otherwise go to the street office." Liu Haizhong said with his neck stiff.

The two men were at a stalemate. At this time, Yi Zhonghai spoke. He cleared his throat and said, "How about this, Second Uncle, don't say thirty. Third Uncle, don't be so stingy. Just twenty yuan, plus Yan Jiecheng's apology."

The two were silent for a while, then they both agreed, and then Yan Jiecheng apologized.

Yi Zhonghai announced the adjournment of the meeting. At this time, Jia Dongxu walked to the side of Yan Jiecheng, patted Yan Jiecheng on the shoulder, and said, "Boss Yan, you are really capable. You can do this."

"He, he has learned all the tricks of scheming." Sha Zhu also said sarcastically.

Yan Jiecheng's face turned red and he turned and left. Yan Bugui took out twenty yuan and gave it to Liu Haizhong in front of Yi Zhonghai. Then he snorted and walked away angrily with the teacup.

A conference came to an end. The three people on the rooftop enjoyed watching it so much that they turned around and went down from the rooftop.

The three people returned to the main room and continued their discussion. Xiaowu fully affirmed Yi Zhonghai's performance. He felt that Yi Zhonghai was basically fair and the incident itself was the Yan family's fault. Xiaosi had a deep impression of the Yan family. He had dealt with them several times and said that the Yan family's level was getting higher and higher, referring to the level of calculation.

Wang Zhan shook his head and said, "Actually, this was agreed upon by Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong before the meeting. I guess they came here to teach the Yan family a lesson. I don't know how the Yan family offended Yi Zhonghai." Xiaowu and Xiaosi were stunned, and then began to recall the entire process of the meeting. It didn't feel like it was rehearsed, and they looked at Wang Zhan with puzzled eyes.

Wang Zhan said, "You don't understand these three uncles. If the third uncle Yan Bugui is calculating money and property, then Yi Zhonghai is calculating people's hearts. Now his focus is on Jia Dongxu. There is a Jia Zhang in the Jia family. Jia Dongxu has left a question mark in Yi Zhonghai's mind. The second person is Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu didn't say much today, but from those few words, we can tell that this fool has returned to his old self, but there is still a gap between him and Yi Zhonghai. He doesn't completely trust Yi Zhonghai. The most important thing is."

Xiao Si and Xiao Wu frowned, and Xiao Wu said, "These adults are so complicated, with so many selfish motives."

Xiao Si also said: "Yes, it feels like everyone in that courtyard has their own calculations, using each other and calculating against each other."

"When there are interests, people with their own calculations will be tied together. I guess Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong have reached some kind of deal in private this time."

At this time, in the backyard of the deaf old lady's house, the deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were sitting around a square table, drinking tea.

Yi Zhonghai said: "Second Uncle, I am on your side today, don't forget what you promised me."

Liu Haizhong nodded and said, "Actually, Lao Yi, I don't need the twenty dollars, I just want to vent my anger. Don't worry, I have already told my eldest brother about writing the thank-you letter. But I don't understand. Director Wang has caused a lot of trouble for our hospital. Why should we publicize her achievements?"

Yi Zhonghai smiled slightly, exchanged glances with the deaf old lady, then turned his head and said, "You'll know the details later. I'll tell you a little bit. If this goes through, your eldest son will have a chance to own the house."

"Okay, just do it as I say, but don't tell anyone, okay? There's a saying that goes, if a ruler is not discreet, he will lose his ministers, and if a minister is not discreet, he will lose his chastity. You'll know after it's done." The deaf old lady picked up the teacup.

Liu Haizhong curled his lips, knowing that the old lady was starting to chase people away, so he stood up and said, "Then I'll go back and tell my eldest brother, I'll go back first."

After Liu Haizhong left, Yi Zhonghai stood up and walked to the door to lock it. Then he came back and sat down, lowering his voice and saying, "Old lady, I found an officer in the police station. His brother is my apprentice. I have already inquired about it. The boy's master is indeed missing, and Director Li has been promoted to the branch to manage logistics. This is true."

The deaf old lady squinted her eyes, thought for a while and said, "That boy was beside us. Although we had a few small disputes, we always suffered losses, especially the incident with Sha Zhu. I think it was this boy who was behind us. I found an old friend in Xizhimen. He had heard of this boy. His methods are really wild. There are three masters, and none of them is easy to deal with. If we want to control this boy, we really couldn't do it before, but this time is different. It's a godsend opportunity."

Yi Zhonghai took a sip of tea and said, "Well, if He Yushui hadn't let it slip, I wouldn't have known that this guy was so rich. He must have cheated a lot outside. Tell me, isn't that good? The higher-ups said his income was legal."

"I guess this kid has done great deeds outside, but it doesn't matter. Those who supported him have left one by one. From now on, I will make arrangements. The police station and the street will all be my people, and I will have the final say. Let's see how I can control him. After all, he is only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child. How much can he do?" said the deaf old lady with a smile.

Yi Zhonghai kept nodding, drinking tea, his heart filled with joy.
