Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

Then he first looked at Liu Haizhong beside him: "Lao Liu, you are the second uncle in the courtyard, what about you?"

Liu Haizhong never expected that today's meeting was to donate money to the Jia family, and he never expected that Yi Zhonghai would start with him when he came up.

Moreover, Yi Zhonghai donated 30 yuan himself, which was a bit choking for him.

Although Liu Haizhong's salary is not low, he is only one level lower than Yi Zhonghai in this courtyard, but he has three sons. Although the eldest son Liu Guangqi has married and moved out to live on his own, there are still two older sons at home who eat and drink for free.

They are completely different from Yi Zhonghai, who are childless and live alone as a couple, so asking him to donate a few dozen dollars is like cutting off his own flesh.

What's even more infuriating is that Yi Zhonghai held this meeting to donate money to the Jia family, but he didn't tell the second uncle anything about it beforehand. Instead, he asked him to set an example right from the start.

This is clearly about grabbing his neck and killing him.

Liu Haizhong was so angry that his face turned red, but he had no way to deal with it and had to follow the path drawn by Yi Zhonghai.

He was an official fan, but he was not destined to be an official. He was just a soldier in the unit. He had finally become a second-rank official in the hospital by virtue of his age and qualifications, but he didn't want Yi Zhonghai to steal his limelight in the hospital.

Therefore, although he felt that Yi Zhonghai had played a trick on him, Liu Haizhong still didn't want to be outdone by him in the donation matter. So after hesitating for a while, he still endured the pain and took out thirty yuan from his pocket: "Since Old Yi has donated thirty yuan, then I, the second uncle, can't fall behind, I will also donate thirty yuan."

Next it was Yan Bugui's turn.

Yan Bugui was dumbfounded. He now understood why Yi Zhonghai had just told him about work. He was waiting for him here.

If it were according to Yan Bugui's usual style, he would not pay a penny.

My family doesn't want to eat meat all year round, and even when we eat pickles we have to count them and share them with everyone. Why should I donate money to you?

Besides, you, Jia Dongxu, only have to support five people with one salary, while I, Yan Bugui, have to support six people with one salary. It's even harder than yours.

But it’s not possible today. Yi Zhonghai’s attitude is very clear. If he doesn’t donate, then his job will be in jeopardy.

Thinking of the hard-earned opportunity, Yan Bugui had to make a sacrifice no matter how painful it was. He gritted his teeth, took out five yuan from his pocket and said, "Old Yi and Old Liu have both donated, so I, the third uncle, cannot be left behind. But everyone knows that my family's conditions are not as good as Old Yi and Old Liu's, so I will donate five yuan."

Yi Zhonghai nodded, knowing that it was not easy for Old Yan to take out five dollars, so he said, "Okay, donate, it depends on your own conditions, Old Yan, just donate five dollars." As he spoke, he glanced around and stared at Xu Damao who was standing with Yang Chong: "Xu Damao, you are a projectionist in the factory, your salary is not low, and you don't have children yet, just the two of you, how much do you plan to donate?"

Chapter 45 Yang Chong, how much do you plan to donate?

As soon as Yi Zhonghai mentioned the donation, Xu Damao said to Yang Chong, "What do you think? Chongzi, am I right? The Jia family can't escape this matter today, right? Humph, Yi Zhonghai, this old bastard, he wants Jia Dongxu to take care of him in his old age, but he wants all of us in the hospital to take the blame for him!"

Yang Chong also showed a sneer on his face. As expected, the old fox Yi Zhonghai was going to use his old tricks again.

This is just like the parent committees in the parent groups in schools in the future. They want to please the teacher and have to get all the parents in the class to pay for the teacher to buy this and that. In the end, everyone pays, and the only ones who do favors for the teacher are these dogs.

Looking at this situation, Yi Zhonghai will definitely want to take advantage of me, but do you think I can be manipulated by you?

At this time, Yi Zhonghai called Xu Damao's name: "Xu Damao, you are a projectionist in the factory, your salary is not low, and you don't have a child yet, just two people, how much do you plan to donate?"

Xu Damao didn't expect that it would be his turn to be slaughtered next. He was very angry with Yi Zhonghai, but he didn't dare not to donate. Otherwise, Yi Zhonghai would be labeled as a heartless and unsympathetic rich man, and it would be difficult for him to survive in this hospital in the future.

So he looked at Lou Xiao'e and gritted his teeth: "I'll donate five dollars."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sha Zhu on the other side said sarcastically: "Tsk, Xu Damao, you are really stingy. You are a projectionist and you only make 30 or 40 yuan a month. How can you afford to give me 5 yuan?"

Sha Zhu and Xu Damao are famous rivals in the hospital, so he would seize any opportunity to squeeze Xu Damao.

Xu Damao blushed, "What's wrong with my 30 yuan salary? I worked hard all month to earn that, I didn't steal it. Besides, didn't the uncle donate 5 yuan? Why can't I do the same?"

Sha Zhu retorted, "How can you compare with Third Uncle? Everyone knows the situation of Third Uncle's family. He has to support six people by himself. What about you? You have been married for several years, let alone having children. You haven't even laid an egg. It's just the two of you..."

These words immediately angered Lou Xiao'e. She and Xu Damao had not had any children after they got married, which had always been a concern for the couple. Now Sha Zhu was actually exposing their scars in public. Isn't this embarrassing for them?

Lou Xiao'e blushed immediately: "Silly Zhu, what are you talking about? Can you be more careful with your mouth?"

Sha Zhu knew nothing wrong: "Why is my mouth dirty? Did I say something wrong? Did you two have a baby?"

"You..." Lou Xiao'e's eyes turned red with anger. Yu Xiu quickly pulled her back and said, "Sister-in-law, let's not be like him."

Xu Damao was still arguing with Sha Zhu angrily: "What's wrong with me not having children? At least I have a wife! Some people don't even have a wife? They think about other people's wives all day long, and they send lunch boxes to other people's wives when their own sister doesn't have anything to eat..."

Everyone in the yard burst into laughter and looked at Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu's face suddenly turned red, Qin Huairu lowered her head in embarrassment, and Jia Zhang glared at her fiercely.

Sha Zhu was anxious, and he was about to rush towards Xu Damao with his fist clenched: "Xu Damao, why are you spouting so much shit? Do you want to get beaten?"

Yi Zhonghai saw that chaos was about to break out, so he quickly knocked the teacup hard and said, "Enough! Both of you be quiet, let's talk business."

Everyone quickly pulled Sha Zhu back. Sha Zhu pointed at Xu Damao unwillingly and cursed: "Boy, just wait, this matter is not over yet. Don't let me run into you. I will beat you up every time I run into you!"

"Okay, Zhuzi, stop making trouble. We are in a meeting to collect donations." Yi Zhonghai hurriedly stopped Sha Zhu. The purpose of today was to get everyone to donate to the Jia family. Xu Damao had already donated money, so don't let this young fool like Sha Zhu mess things up.

Sha Zhu glared at Xu Damao angrily again, then took out twenty yuan from his pocket, put it on the table and said loudly: "Uncle, I'm not as stingy as some people. I'll donate twenty yuan today!"

Twenty dollars! The others stuck out their tongues, their eyes looking a little weird.

Jia Dongxu and Jia Zhang were delighted, thinking that if everyone donated like Sha Zhu, wouldn't they earn at least a hundred dollars today?

But Xu Damao immediately retaliated: "Tsk, since you can't get married anyway, just give all your salary to someone else's wife."

Everyone burst into laughter, Qin Huairu's face turned red, and Jia Dongxu almost wanted to get angry with Xu Damao.

"You're itching for trouble today, aren't you?" Sha Zhu was so angry that he was about to come over and fight again. Yi Zhonghai quickly said, "Okay, stop talking. If you two want to fight, go outside and fight later. Don't delay the business."

Sha Zhu had no choice but to point at Xu Damao and say, "Boy, if you have the guts, don't run away after we disperse. Let's go outside and practice alone!"

Xu Damao was not that stupid. He knew he was no match for Sha Zhu, so he turned his face away and ignored him.

Yi Zhonghai quickly corrected the topic: "Okay, everyone, stop making trouble and continue donating."

But the others just watched and few moved.

After all, who doesn't have financial difficulties these days? Who doesn't get their money from the wind? Who would be willing to donate to others for no reason, especially to the unpopular Jia family? Everyone was reluctant, but no one dared to say anything.

Yi Zhonghai glanced around and pointed directly at Yang Chong: "Hey who? Yang Chong, you have a job now, shouldn't you also show some love and help your neighbors in need?"

When Yu Xiu heard this, he directly called out his own name and quickly looked at Yang Chong.

The others also stared at Yang Chong, wanting to see what he would do.

The living conditions of the Yang family have undergone a tremendous change. They used to carry heavy bags and had no food to eat, but now both the couple work in a state-owned factory and have become one of the best-off families in the entire courtyard.

Everyone wanted to see if he would donate money after he had money, and the donation would be to the Jia family, who had always been at odds with him.

I also want to see whether he will be the troublemaker who rises up and dares to go against Yi Zhonghai.

Everyone stared at Yang Chong, and he smiled faintly and said, "Uncle, look at what you said. Don't even mention that I have a job. Even if I didn't have a job, I would still be carrying heavy responsibilities. It's my duty to help others and show my love."

Everyone was stunned and couldn't believe their ears.

Especially Yu Xiu, she looked at Yang Chong in surprise and pulled his sleeve anxiously.

Yi Zhonghai was also stunned. He did not expect Yang Chong to agree so readily. It seemed that his attempt to force Yang Chong to abdicate in public had worked. So he smiled and asked, "How much money do you plan to donate today? Both of you are working in the steel mill now."

Chapter 46 Three Families Share the Donation Equally

Everyone looked at Yang Chong.

Yang Chong smiled slightly: "Let's not talk about how much I donated. There is something I want to say first. Uncle, since this whole courtyard meeting is to help families in need, I think there are many families in the courtyard who are more needy than the Jia family."

"For example, Wang Daguo and his wife are not registered as urban residents, and they don't have rations. Not only do they have to buy expensive food in the pigeon market, but they also have to pay five yuan in rent to the street every month. I think their family is in greater difficulty than the Jia family and needs more donations."

"The same is true for Uncle Li's family in the front yard. Although they have urban hukou, no one in their family works in a state-owned factory. In addition, Aunt Li is ill all year round. The family of six relies on the little money Uncle Li earns from odd jobs to make a living. They are also in a more difficult situation than the Jia family."

"So I think that since we are going to donate today, we should donate the money to families in greater need. What do you think, uncle?"

Yang Chong spoke slowly and his voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap that blew up the entire yard.

Everyone immediately started discussing: "Yes, it's not just the Jia family that's in need in this courtyard, and his family is not the most needy, so why only donate to his family?"

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that? What Yang Chong said makes sense! If we want to donate, we should donate to the Wang family and the Li family, not the Jia family."

"That's right. Although there are five people in the Jia family, there are only three adults and two children. Jia Dongxu earns 30 or 40 yuan a month, so he should be able to take care of his food and drink. Isn't it that Jia Zhang is lazy and greedy, and there is also that Bang Geng who wants to eat meat every day. Does he want us to donate money to buy meat for him?"

"That's right. No one's money comes from the wind. Why should we be reluctant to eat or drink and donate the money we save to them to eat meat?"

"You're right. The eldest master is too biased towards the Jia family."

The discussions started out in low voices, then gradually grew louder, and eventually became loud and unbridled.

The Jia family's faces changed all of a sudden. They never expected that Yang Chong would destroy the money they were about to get with just one sentence.

Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly turned red from the smug look just now to the color of liver.

At first, he thought Yang Chong would definitely not be willing to donate money, and he could then accuse him of being disrespectful to the elderly and young and having no love. But who knew that he agreed to donate money, but wanted to change the recipient of the donation to someone else.

He began to regret that he should not have called out Yang Chong's name. He had intended to defeat him, but he did not expect that he would be counterattacked by him and was forced into a desperate situation.

It was too late to regret now. He couldn't take back what he had said. So many people were watching. Yi Zhonghai felt that his authority had been challenged as never before. He had to make a decision immediately, or Liu Datou next to him would take advantage of the situation.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai forced a kind smile on his face, raised his hand to press down and said: "Everyone be quiet, Yang Chong is right, it's not just the Jia family that is in trouble in our courtyard. I was thinking of coming one by one, but since Yang Chong brought it up, let's come together. The three families will have a share of the money donated today, and they will split it equally. What do you think?"

Jia Zhang got anxious when she heard this: "Old Yi, we agreed to donate to my family, how come it became three families? No, I won't agree!"

Yi Zhonghai was so angry, you old pig woman, you are such a pig! If I don't change my words, can you get a penny back?

He quickly glanced at Jia Dongxu, who was quite smart, and quickly said to his mother, "Mom, please stop talking. My master is right. We are not the only family in need in the hospital. Everyone should get a share of the donation."

Jia Zhang was so angry that she stamped her feet and went home.

Yi Zhonghai stared at Yang Chong. At this moment, he already hated Yang Chong in his heart: "Yang Chong, how much do you plan to donate today?"

Yang Chong continued, "Uncle, although I am a dual-income family, everyone knows that Xiu'er and I have only been in the factory for a few days and haven't even received our salary yet, so we can't donate much money."

"There are always cars in front and tracks behind. We are very strict about seniority in our hospital. Everyone knows that you three uncles are the most senior in our hospital, so we have to rank behind you. Donations are naturally no exception. We cannot exceed you three uncles."

"Well, since Uncle San donated five dollars, I will also donate the maximum amount, five dollars, like Brother Damao."

As he said that, he took out five dollars from his pocket and placed it on the table in front of Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai was so angry, but he had nothing to say. He couldn't find any reason in Yang Chong's words. He first respected the three uncles, and then talked about the five yuan donated by Yan Bugui, who donated the least, and ignored the thirty yuan donated by Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong.

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he was fuming, but he was helpless and could only turn around and glare at Yan Bugui.

He thought to himself that it was all your fault, you stingy old man, otherwise how could Yang Chong only donate five dollars.

Yan Bugui knew he was in the wrong, so he lowered his head in embarrassment and didn't dare to look at Yi Zhonghai.

The deaf old lady sitting on the side looked at Yi Zhonghai, shook her head, sighed, and said, "Zhu Zi, carry me home."

With Yang Chong's words at the beginning, the others had an excuse to shirk their responsibility, so you donated one dollar, I donated fifty cents, and some even donated ten cents.

Aunt Wang in the front yard even took out two big radishes from her home and said, "My family is not well off, so I'll just donate two big radishes."

Jia Dongxu was so angry that his nose was about to be crooked. He thought to himself, "My family needs your two big carrots, right? What my family wants to eat is meat!"

But you still have to smile and look grateful.

After everyone in the courtyard donated money one by one, the three old men gathered together to take count and found that the total donation was 103.2 yuan.

Among them, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong donated 30 yuan each, Sha Zhu donated 20 yuan, and Xu Damao, Yan Bugui and Yang Chong each donated 5 yuan, a total of 95 yuan.

In other words, the remaining nearly twenty households donated a total of only eight yuan and twenty cents.

It is far from the more than 200 yuan that Yi Zhonghai had described to Jia Dongxu before.

There is no doubt that this was all done by this kid Yang Chong!

While Yi Zhonghai was still gritting his teeth in hatred, Yang Chong reminded him again like a warning bell: "Uncle, this 103.2 yuan is divided among three families. How much should each family get?"

And it has to be divided among three families! Yi Zhonghai's face twitched again.

Thanks to the elementary school teacher's good knowledge of mathematics, Yan Bugui immediately came to the conclusion: "One family should get thirty-four yuan and forty cents." As soon as he finished reporting, he saw Yi Zhonghai's resentful eyes.

Chapter 47: Cultivating the Thief Saint

Yi Zhonghai worked all night and only raised 34 yuan for the Jia family. Needless to say, both of them looked gloomy.

Compared with them, the families of Wang Daguo and Li Dabo, who received an "unexpected fortune", were grinning from ear to ear.

They received more than 30 yuan in donations for free, which was equivalent to the expenses of two families for two or three months. Naturally, the two families knew that this was all thanks to Yang Chong, and they were naturally full of gratitude to Yang Chong.

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu naturally hated Yang Chong.

Jia Zhang had already started cursing at home: "This Yi Zhonghai is really useless! He talked a lot before, saying that he could donate more than 200 yuan to our family, but what happened? He only gave us more than 30 yuan to send away beggars?!"
