Siheyuan: Let Yourself Go He Yuzhu

Chapter 57 Yi Zhonghai threatens Qin Huairu
"Simple! Don't care about anything, don't do anything. Just secretly find one or two inconspicuous people in the courtyard and tell them to keep objective and fair records. Record everything that happens in the courtyard in detail, and then submit it for discussion at the higher-ups." He Yuzhu said with a chuckle.

Director Wang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt as if suddenly enlightened. The higher-ups had already made Courtyard No. 95 a pilot project. For Director Wang, the biggest taboo was that he would make decisions on behalf of the higher-ups.

This kind of thing is not only taboo, but also thankless. After all, everyone is different. What one leader thinks is the right way to do something may not be the same for another leader.

If it was just a trivial matter among family members, it would be fine, but the key point is that the people responsible for this matter control Director Wang's promotion.

It can be said that Director Wang’s personal destiny and future all depend on the thoughts of others. No matter how outstanding Director Wang is, how successful he is, or how hard he works, if his superiors don’t like him, then he just doesn’t like him.

It really fits the old saying: If they say you can do it, then you can do it, even if you can’t; if they say you can’t do it, then you can’t do it, even if you can; you can’t refuse to accept it!
Since it is taboo and a thankless task, it is better to do nothing, quietly and meticulously prepare the records, and then submit the records to the superiors to make the final decision.

In this way, the credit for working seriously, doing things steadily and willingly will not be lost.

Compared with fairness within the courtyard, Director Wang's personal future is more important. He made a decision in an instant.

"Zhu Zi, I didn't expect you to be so quick-witted. It's a pity that you are just a cook." Director Wang said with a smile.

"Aunt Wang, thank you for your praise. Family members know their own business. I am not the kind of person who plays with my brain. You are just a wise man who makes mistakes occasionally. Aunt Wang, is there anything else? If not, I'll leave." He Yuzhu said.

"It's okay. I'll call Chief Zhang of the police station right now," said Director Wang.

"By the way, Aunt Wang, there is one thing I forgot to tell you. I have already told Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai about the fact that Qin Huairu's mother took Jia Zhang's money before I came to you." He Yuzhu said and left with a big laugh.

Director Wang couldn't help but roll his eyes. He Yuzhu was obviously just looking for trouble. Then, Director Wang shook his head. Since he had already made up his mind, he would not care about the mess in the courtyard.

However, Director Wang also knew that today's matter was of great importance, so he prepared to go secretly and observe the situation on the spot.

After He Yuzhu left, Director Wang called Director Zhang. Then, Director Wang began to write down He Yuzhu's request for him to release Jia Zhang. Of course, he did not record the incident of He Yuzhu sending eggs, nor did he record his conversation with He Yuzhu.

After leaving the street office, He Yuzhu returned to the kitchen of the steel rolling mill. He Yuzhu had no idea that what he had said to Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu and others was like a depth bomb, blowing Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu and others upside down.

"Huai Ru, you can't let your mother take away your mother-in-law's pension money. You know your mother-in-law's character. Taking her money is like asking for her life."

"Huai Ru, you also know that respecting the elderly and loving the young and being filial to parents are our traditional virtues. Although Dong Xu is gone, your mother-in-law is still here."

"If you don't respect the elderly and love the young, and be filial to your parents, and you don't set a good example for your children, how will your neighbors see you? How will your fellow workers at the steel mill see you? How will Banggeng see you?" Yi Zhonghai said in a earnest manner.

Although Qin Huairu had not read many books, she was quite smart and immediately understood the meaning of Yi Zhonghai's words.

On the surface, Yi Zhonghai was advising himself to be filial, but in fact he was threatening himself and forcing himself to be filial. The object of his filial piety was obviously not his mother, but Jia Zhang.

As long as she was not filial to Jia Zhang, Yi Zhonghai would have plenty of ways to deal with her. Not only would he deal with her in the courtyard, but he would also deal with her in the steel mill. What made Qin Huairu even more desperate was that Yi Zhonghai threatened her with a stick.

Qin Huairu understood that Yi Zhonghai had the ability to do so, unless she remarried immediately. However, how could there be such a suitable one?

Qin Huairu is still pregnant now, and no one is willing to take over. What's more, even if someone is willing to take over, what about Banggeng and Xiaodang?
Is the person who takes over willing to support them?
Even if they are raising them now, once their biological children are born, they will definitely treat their biological children well, and naturally ignore Bang Geng and others...

Another way is to move Yi Zhonghai to the courtyard and the steel mill. Obviously, this is even more unrealistic. The deaf old lady will not allow Yi Zhonghai to leave. The deaf old lady still relies on Yi Zhonghai to take care of her in her old age, and the deaf old lady has a close relationship with Director Yang.

Facing Yi Zhonghai's relentless pressure, Qin Huairu was in a state of confusion for a while. Although Qin Huairu understood the law and knew that the Women's Federation, the Trade Union and the Street would support her, she also understood that the current official was not as good as the current manager, and Qin Huairu's instinct was not to go to the leader.

This is a tradition that has lasted for more than 5,000 years, a tradition that is deeply rooted in our bones.

"Huai Ru, please say something." Yi Zhonghai stamped his feet anxiously.

In fact, deep down in her heart, Qin Huairu hoped that her mother would take all of Jia Zhang's money. Although her mother was also a miser, she was her biological mother after all.

As long as you cry, make a fuss, and scare others, you can get back some of the money from your mother, if not all of it.

If the money is in Jia Zhang's hands, even if you hang yourself in front of her, she won't even blink an eye and you won't get a penny.

What's more, if you make a fuss, Yi Zhonghai will jump out and threaten you in the name of filial piety.

Qin Huairu had no way to deal with Yi Zhonghai's questioning, but Qin Huairu didn't want to compromise either, so she adopted a method that was not a solution.

cry!
Qin Huairu's tears fell like rain. No matter how anxious Yi Zhonghai got, Qin Huairu just cried with her eyes full of tears.

People who don’t know might think that Yi Zhonghai bullied Qin Huairu, and how wronged Qin Huairu must have felt.

"Okay, Huairu, stop crying. I know you are caught in a dilemma. I will go find Shazhu first and ask him about the details before making any plans." Yi Zhonghai was upset by Qin Huairu's crying and said impatiently.

After saying this, Yi Zhonghai turned around and left Qin Huairu's room to look for Sha Zhu. However, when he arrived at the door of the guesthouse, he was stopped by the front desk. No matter how much Yi Zhonghai said, the people at the front desk refused to let Yi Zhonghai leave.

This is what Director Yang stipulated.

Even if Yi Zhonghai asked the front desk to call Director Yang, the front desk remained unmoved and just stopped Yi Zhonghai from leaving.

If Yi Zhonghai had spoken more politely and spent a few cents, the front desk would have definitely called Director Yang. However, Yi Zhonghai acted so condescending and looked down on people, so the people at the front desk were secretly angry and naturally refused to make the call.

They are all working class and have stable jobs, so they are all very tough.

Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to go find the deaf old lady, but the deaf old lady did not comment. After all, he was not taking her money, and the deaf old lady had disliked Jia Zhang for a long time, so she took this opportunity to give Jia Zhang a warning.

Let Jia Zhang understand that not everyone will tolerate her.

"Old lady, you should quickly go find Director Yang and ask him to let us go back to the courtyard. Otherwise, there will be a big mess in the courtyard." Yi Zhonghai hurriedly told her that Qin's mother wanted to take away Jia Zhang's pension money.

"Xiao Yi, who told you this?" The deaf old lady was determined to make Jia Zhang remember this lesson, so she asked slowly.

"Shazhu came here to yell early in the morning, didn't you hear him?" Yi Zhonghai said angrily.

"Xiao Yi, what can I say about you? Do you still want to ease the relationship with Zhuzi?"

"If you want to ease the situation, then don't say the name 'Shazhu' anymore. Is it that difficult to change the name? Or do you think Zhuzi is a fool from the bottom of your heart?" said the deaf old lady with a frown.
