Chapter 65 What do you think of Xiao'e and the first full-house meeting (Part ) Please subscribe
Lou Bancheng felt relieved to leave his daughter to him.

It can be said that He Yuzhu passed his "test" during this period, so he planned to make He Yuzhu his son-in-law.

Get off work in the afternoon.

He Yuzhu first picked up Yu Shui from school and sent her back to the courtyard. He told her that he might be back late in the evening, and then went to Mr. Lou's house for a family dinner.

I originally thought that this was just an ordinary family dinner like any other, and I could just finish cooking and leave.

Who knew that when he brought up the last dish, sweet and sour pork, he was stopped by Lou Bancheng when he turned around.

"Zhu Zi, you've worked so hard to cook so many dishes."

"Haha, it's okay. It's not hard."

Usually after the family dinner, Lou Bancheng would give him a big red envelope, which made all the hard work worth it.

"Why don't you sit down and eat with us? We can't finish all the food."

"what??"

He Yuzhu was a little confused. He said, "Boss Lou, I'm just a cook. Isn't it against the rules to serve at the table?"

Tan Yali said: "Zhu Zi, you have come to our house many times. We have already regarded you as a family member. Don't be so distant."

Lou Bancheng said, "Just come to the table if I ask you to. Besides, I have something to tell you."

"Oh fine."

He Yuzhu didn't understand what Lou Bancheng was up to, so he just took a look and sat down immediately. What he didn't notice was that Lou Xiaoe's pretty face suddenly turned red, she glanced at He Yuzhu secretly, then quickly looked away for fear of being discovered.

A servant promptly handed over a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

He Yuzhu knew that Lou Bancheng wanted to talk to him about something, not that he really wanted him to sit down and eat, so he took the chopsticks but did not touch the food. Instead, he said:
"Boss Lou, what's going on? I'm just a cook and I can only cook, but if it's something I can do, I'll definitely help."

"Haha, Zhuzi, don't be in a hurry, let's talk while we eat..."

He Yuzhu said with some embarrassment: "Boss Lou, you know my sister is still at home. If I go back late, I'm worried that she will be bullied by others. Besides, if you don't tell me, I won't dare to eat this meal, and I won't feel at ease eating it."

Hearing this, Lou Bancheng did not beat around the bush and said, "In that case, Zhuzi, I'll get straight to the point. Are you interested in being my son-in-law?"

"what???"

He Yuzhu was stunned. He never expected that Lou Bancheng would be talking about this kind of thing.

Marry Lou Xiaoe?

He never thought that in terms of appearance, he was not as good as Qin Huairu, let alone Chen Xueru...

Speaking of family background, the daughter of a capitalist is like a time bomb!
He couldn't think of any reason why he would choose a woman like this who was not pretty and had a bad family background.
"Zhu Zi, Xiao E is my daughter. I sent her to school since she was young. Now that she has grown up, she is well-educated, gentle and virtuous. If it were in the past, I would have chosen a husband for Xiao E who was well-matched with me, but times are different now..."

Lou Bancheng said a lot, and He Yuzhu understood what he said. The general meaning was that in the past, a third-rate profession like yours (before ancient times, a cook was a lowly profession like a craftsman, belonging to the lowest of the three religions and nine classes) was not worthy of marrying my daughter, Lou Bancheng, but now it is different, big-headed workers like you are starting to rise...

So I have no choice now but to marry my daughter to you. It will be your honor, so why not kneel down and express your gratitude?

After listening to this, He Yuzhu sneered. Capitalists like Lou Bancheng may have donated materials to the country in the past, but in essence they still can't change the bad habits of capitalists and look down on poor people...

If you really think this is exaggerated, just look at the society in a few decades and you will know what status the poor people will have...

Of course, he couldn't possibly marry Lou Xiao'e. He said calmly, "Boss Lou, you are too modest. If your daughter is as good as you say, how can a peasant like me be worthy of her? So you should find someone else. I am not worthy of her. Okay, I won't eat either. I'm leaving now."

Having said that, he stood up without giving Lou Bancheng any face.

He is not afraid at all. Not to mention the current historical background, Lou Bancheng will donate the steel mill to the country in the future, and he will be a director in name only. Later, he even fled overseas.

It would be even less of a threat to him.

So He Yuzhu was not afraid at all. Now that the relationship was broken up, he didn't plan to stay any longer.

Lou Xiao'e, who was standing by, stood up hastily, looking very anxious, and said, "Dad..."

Lou Bancheng stood up and said:
"Comrade He Yuzhu, as someone who has experienced this, let me remind you, young man, don't be too impulsive."

He Yuzhu didn't even turn his head and said, "If you're not angry, are you still a young man?"

After saying that, he left the Lou family directly.

The Lou family is some distance away from the courtyard, and it takes at least an hour to walk there.

..............................

In the courtyard on the other side.

The deaf old lady is very happy today because she has been selected as a five-guarantee household.

Although He Yuzhu had ruined her good fortune that day, causing the street office to refuse to process her application, fortunately she knew a high-ranking official.

She asked her godson Yi Zhonghai to contact them directly. Sure enough, this morning, someone informed her to go to the street office. Her qualifications had been reviewed and she could apply for the five-guarantee household.

Look, Yi Zhonghai took a special leave in the afternoon to accompany the old lady to apply for the five-guarantee household registration, and he just came back...

"Old lady, with this status, I wonder who will dare to challenge you in the future..."

The deaf old lady smiled and said, "I still remember that idiot Zhu very clearly. He ruined my good deeds. Now help me go to their door. I want to smash the glass on their window frame. Let's see if he dares to mess with me, an old lady, in the future..."

"Got it."

Yi Zhonghai had no objection. After all, he had suffered a lot at the hands of this idiot Zhu, so it was time for him to deal with the kid from the He family.

A few moments.

"Clang"

With a crisp sound, the deaf old lady used the crutch in her hand to smash the glass on the He family's window, scaring He Yushui, who was doing homework at home, so much that he shuddered.

The deaf old lady stood outside the door and muttered a few words. He Yushui hurried over and looked through the crack in the door, but did not dare to go out.

The deaf old lady cursed a few more times, and seeing that no one came out, she thought that Sha Zhu had been scared, so she cursed a few more times. Then, under the escort of her godson Yi Zhonghai, she returned to her home.

..............................

He Yuzhu didn't come back from outside until around eight or nine o'clock. By then, the entire courtyard was completely silent and dark.

As soon as he returned to the door of his house, he felt as if he stepped on something. When he opened the door, He Yushui rushed over to him and told him about his afternoon with tears in her eyes.

While He Yuzhu was calming down the rain, he went to the window and saw that the glass was indeed broken, leaving a large gap through which wind was leaking.

There was glass blocking the way before, so who wouldn’t feel cold there?

Now the wind is blowing in, making people shiver, even if there is a stove at home.

He Yuzhu was immediately furious. He was already very angry at the Lou family, and after he came back, this old man came to cause trouble. His anger was completely ignited.

"If I don't take revenge, why am I still hanging around in the compound?"

He Yuzhu, full of anger, told Yu Shui to stay at home and then walked towards the backyard.

When he arrived at the backyard, He Yuzhu kicked the deaf old woman's broken wooden door without saying a word.

The deaf old lady, who was about to fall asleep, was so frightened that she almost fell off the kang.

"Who is it? Who's outside?"

He Yuzhu didn't answer, but just kept kicking the door.

Although the deaf old lady is domineering in the compound, that is because the residents in the compound are all honest people and easy to bully.

When you meet a ruthless person, you become a coward.

He Yuzhu, who was in a high position, didn't care about the consequences, and soon the entire courtyard was alarmed and all the lights were turned on.

For example, the second uncle’s house and Xu Damao’s house, which are both in the backyard.

Before long, the entire compound became completely bustling.

"Go and have a look! The idiot in the middle courtyard has gone mad and is kicking the door of the deaf old lady's house."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what happened?"

"It seemed that in the afternoon, the deaf old lady smashed the glass of the He family, and He Yuzhu came to the door in the evening..."

"Kick old ladies in the middle of the night? Is that exciting?"

Zhongyuan, Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Lao Yi, did you hear anything? Something seems to have happened."

"Yeah, I heard it too. No, I have to go check it out."

As Yi Zhonghai said this, he quietly got out of bed, put on his clothes, put on a coat, and went out.

When I arrived at the backyard, I was completely stunned.

He Yuzhu actually kicked down the wooden door of the deaf old lady's house.

Only another door was left hanging in tatters, and the second and third uncles stood by and watched.

"Stop it..."

Yi Zhonghai shouted quickly.

He came over angrily and said, "Shazhu, what are you doing so late at night? You actually came to the old lady's house to cause trouble? Call the police, you must call the police..."

"Silly Hai, you are finally here."

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai almost vomited blood in anger and said, "Shazhu, how can you, a fatherless wild boy, talk to your elders?"

"Bah, you are considered an elder, stop barking like a dog, the deaf old lady dare not come out, let me ask you, were you two the ones who smashed the glass of my house at noon?"

Yi Zhonghai said: "Did you hear that?"

"Don't worry about who said it. Just say it, right?"

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's face darkened and he didn't dare to answer.

There are so many people here, how should he answer?

"How dare you do it but not take responsibility for it? No wonder you are a loser, you only do these shameless things."

"puff……"

"Ha ha……"

Some people around couldn't help laughing, but then quickly covered their mouths.

Yi Zhonghai almost vomited blood when he heard this. Every word of this Sha Zhu was like a knife stabbing his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

Before Yi Zhonghai could answer, the deaf old lady's voice was heard.

"So what? You little bastard, I've already given you a break by smashing your glass. In my opinion, you're just like your father, a bastard born of a mother but not raised by her. You should be kicked out of this compound."

The deaf old lady was so angry that she almost died.

"Your mouth stinks, old man."

Seeing the deaf old lady coming out, He Yuzhu was about to slap her in the face. As for whether he would beat her to death, this old lady was very tough and there was no need to worry at all.

Seeing Sha Zhuzi's attitude, Yi Zhonghai said quickly: "Old Liu and Old Yan, how long do you want to watch the show? If anything happens to the old lady, you two will be held responsible."

Hearing this, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui had no choice but to come forward and stop He Yuzhu. Yan Bugui said, "I think today's incident is quite serious, but it's not enough to call the police. Since both of you are unwilling to reconcile, in order not to destroy the unity of the compound, how about we hold a general meeting in two days?"

Upon hearing this, Fatty Liu agreed immediately.

But Yi Zhonghai had no objection. He thought to himself that he was now the boss and had the right to call a general meeting of all employees. As the saying goes, a new official has three things to do when he takes office, so he would use this idiot Zhu as a first step to establish his authority.

"I agree."

He Yuzhu also agreed.

"Okay, then we'll hold a general meeting in two days to resolve this matter."

Yi Zhonghai said loudly.

"Old thing, I'll let you jump around for two more days."

He Yuzhu left a harsh remark and then left.

The three old men began to disperse the residents who were watching.

Many people were excited. It was worth it to witness such a wonderful show tonight.

..............................

Two days passed in a flash. Since it was the first general meeting of employees, the report was very grand.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, came back from school in the afternoon and asked his two boys to start setting up the scene.

The meeting place was in the central courtyard, under an old locust tree.

Before the meeting, Yi Zhonghai visited the He family.

"Zhuzi, are you at home?"

Just then, a man suddenly walked into the room.

He was a middle-aged man with a face full of stubble and a somewhat honest look.

This person was none other than the head of their courtyard, the dignified uncle, Yi Zhonghai!

He Yuzhu saw through his hypocrisy when watching TV, and now when he sees him, he feels that he is sanctimonious and extremely hypocritical.

It is no exaggeration to describe him as a "hypocrite".

They keep saying it's fair, but in fact it's not fair at all.

If it is fair, why would it favor the old lady and the Jia family?

How can we talk about fairness if we can't even distinguish the most basic right from wrong?

He Yuzhu just looked at him without saying anything.

I don't want to pay any attention to him at all.

In order to avoid being called Shahai again, Yi Zhonghai just called him by his full name.

"He Yuzhu, why don't you say anything?" Yi Zhonghai came over and said:

"Don't hold a grudge against you and the old lady anymore. You were wrong in the first place. No matter what, she is an old lady. She is the oldest in the hospital and everyone respects her. You shouldn't scold her. It's wrong for you to scold her!"

"But you know the old lady, she is reasonable and generous. She said that she can forgive you, but you need to apologize to her in person. You apologize to her, and the matter will be over. From now on, everyone can live in harmony like before! We are neighbors, we see each other every day, so we should be friendly and not quarrel and make unpleasant things!"

"How about this? I'll call a meeting for you tonight. At the meeting, in front of everyone in the hospital, you apologize to the old lady. What do you think?"

He bluntly said that he would convene a meeting of the entire hospital and let He Yuzhu apologize to the deaf old lady in front of everyone in the hospital.

Hearing this, He Yuzhu almost laughed out of anger.

He had seen shameless people, but never such a shameless one.

I went to someone's house to ask for meat, but failed and even asked them to apologize!

Is there any reason?
Is there any royal law?
Do you really think this courtyard is deaf?
Are you the Buddha who covers the sky with one hand?

If it were in the past, he might not want to bother with these beasts at all, but after being harassed by them time and time again, he has become temperamental.

Since you won't let him live an easy life, then forget it!

Not only will he attend the hospital-wide meeting tonight, he will also give a special session to the deaf old lady at the meeting and expose her secret.

Reveal her unknown dark side!
Let her true colors show!

"He Yuzhu, what are you daydreaming about?" Seeing that he was slow to respond, Yi Zhonghai said impatiently, "I'm talking to you. There will be a meeting of the whole hospital tonight. You must be present to settle the matter between you and the old lady. I believe that you are a sensible person and know what to do. I also advise you not to be so stubborn. The old lady is kind-hearted and is definitely not what you think. You have misunderstood her."

"Okay, I'll go!" He Yuzhu nodded vigorously.

"You agree?" Yi Zhonghai asked in surprise.

He thought the other party was still so stubborn and refused to bow to the old lady, but he didn't expect that he would agree so readily this time.

He Yuzhu replied: "Yes, I agree to attend the whole hospital meeting tonight, but you must call the deaf old lady over. She can't be absent. I have something very important to say to her and to everyone else."

"Of course, the old lady will definitely be here. I have already made it clear to her just now." Yi Zhonghai nodded.

He didn't think much about He Yuzhu's serious words, and subconsciously thought that he had given in and was ready to apologize to the old lady.

"He Yuzhu, remember, you must come to the Intermediate Court to attend the general meeting before 8 o'clock in the evening. I don't want you to not come or be late."

After saying that, he turned and walked away.

"Deaf old lady, just wait. If you smash the glass in my house, I will make you pay a heavy price. You will soon be ruined and infamous!" Staring at Yi Zhonghai's back, He Yuzhu gritted his teeth and thought viciously.

He knew the deaf old lady better than anyone else.

She hid it very deeply.

There are many things on my body that I cannot see in public.

Once exposed, her reputation will plummet and her status will be lost!
But don't forget that he is a time traveler and once had a God's perspective.

He knew exactly what flaws everyone in this hospital had and what shameful secrets everyone was hiding!

"Brother, are you really going to the Central Court to attend the whole court meeting tonight?" asked her younger sister Yu Shui who was standing beside her. She frowned as if she was worried about something.

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Yes, I will attend the whole hospital meeting in the evening. You don't have to go. Just wait at home."

He didn't want his sister to be there at that time.

He was afraid that if he angered the deaf old lady and the others, things would get out of control.

So it would be best if she didn't go, it would be safer at home.

"Are you going to apologize to the deaf old lady?" He Yushui asked.

He Yuzhu smiled faintly and asked, "What do you think? Will I apologize to her?"

Yu Shui shook her head and said, “You won’t, but if you don’t apologize to her, they will bully you. I’m afraid they will beat you.”

"No, they can't bully me anymore." He Yuzhu shook his head indifferently.

He has the leverage over almost everyone in this hospital. Anyone who dares to help the deaf old lady and go against him will become infamous and suffer the same fate as her!
After leaving their home, Yi Zhonghai quickly told the old lady that He Yuzhu agreed to apologize at the meeting.

The old lady was satisfied.

In the evening, Yi Zhonghai notified the third uncle Yan Bugui in the front yard and the second uncle Liu Haizhong in the back yard, and began to prepare for a whole-yard meeting in the evening.

Everyone knows what the conference will talk about tonight.

Except for the deaf old lady and a few people from the Jia family, everyone else was there to watch the fun.

They just wanted to laugh at He Yuzhu's joke, so they all acted very enthusiastically.

At eight o'clock, all the people who could come to the courtyard came and gathered in the open space in the center of the courtyard.

He Yuzhu, one of the parties involved, came naturally. He came alone, and his sister Yu Shui stayed at home in the backyard.

The scene was crowded with people. The deaf old lady was sitting in the crowd, leaning on a cane, swaying.

Jia Dongxu and his family came.

Xu Fugui and his wife and Xu Damao were also there.

The person in charge, Yi Zhonghai, sat at the chief seat with swagger. On his left and right sat the second uncle Liu Haizhong, and the third uncle Yan Bugui.

This scene is very similar to the three-court trial in ancient times.

The so-called whole-house meeting was originally intended to mediate conflicts between neighbors and promote harmonious coexistence among everyone. It had a good starting point.

But when the hypocrite Yi Zhonghai became the person in charge, everything changed.

He is full of selfishness.

They abused their power, set up their own courts, stood on the moral high ground, pointed fingers at others and conducted moral judgments.

Not only do they make moral judgments, but sometimes they even cover up crimes. They can let the illegal and criminal activities of the Jia family go unpunished, as if they were the presiding judge.

Revel in it.

"Okay, looks like everyone is here."

Yi Zhonghai glanced at everyone and spoke.

"Now that we're all here, let's get started. I'm sure most people know what this whole-house meeting is for tonight."

"Nothing else, just to clarify the matter between the old lady and He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu disrespected the elderly and abused the old lady, which aroused public anger. Fortunately, he realized his mistake in the past few days and knew that it was a misunderstanding. He misunderstood the old lady. He plans to use tonight's meeting to sincerely apologize to the old lady and hope to get her forgiveness."

"We all live in the same courtyard, we are a family, we should live in harmony, and we shouldn't be suspicious of each other or wrongly accuse others, that is very bad behavior."

"He Yuzhu, please speak. The old lady is here now. Didn't you say you would apologize to her in person? You can speak now."

He looked at He Yuzhu who was sitting quietly in the crowd.

Then, all pairs of eyes looked towards him.

His eyes were full of contempt.

Of course, there were also sympathetic looks.

Everyone knows what kind of person the old lady is.

He Yuzhu didn't say anything, he slowly stood up.

His expression was calm and composed.

He had thought about what to say before he came.

Be confident!

"First of all, I am not attending this meeting tonight to apologize to the deaf old lady," he said loudly. "It is a fact that she did that kind of thing. She was wrong, not me. I have no reason to apologize to her. She should be the one to apologize! Secondly, I want to announce something in public and expose her unknown side!"

"Her identity is fake, she deceived everyone and has been deceiving us!"

These words were spoken with great force, word for word.

There was an uproar immediately.

Fry the pan!
