The courtyard house, without the script of Sha Zhu.

Upon hearing this, the old deaf man felt a surge of anger and resentment welling up inside him.

You need to know what she was like in the courtyard before Cao Wei appeared.

Although he didn't live to be an ancestor, when he speaks out, no matter who it is, they will still give him some face.

Ever since Cao Wei publicly embarrassed himself once, except for that one time when he took the opportunity to invoke the name of the Military Control Commission.

The people in the courtyard didn't really take her seriously anymore.

More importantly, she was well aware that Cao Wei had ruined the most crucial part of her retirement plan, rendering her and Yi Zhonghai's attempt to get rid of He Daqing futile.

Her hopes for a peaceful old age, where she could occasionally visit Sha Zhu's house and get some good food, were completely shattered.

These events combined left the old deaf man feeling utterly furious, to the point that he couldn't even express his anger.

Standing to the side, Yi Zhonghai recalled the humiliations he had suffered at Cao Wei's hands in the past year or so, more than he had ever suffered in his entire life, being publicly humiliated and beaten.

He even ended up in jail. How could he possibly forget such a grudge?

So Yi Zhonghai spoke through gritted teeth.

"Don't even mention it, a little beast moved into our yard, and it's made life unbearable for me, the old lady, and everyone else in the yard."

As Yi Zhonghai spoke, the old deaf man nodded silently.

This scene instantly alerted the Iron-Capped King.

Unable to resist asking further questions.

"What exactly is going on? We've been liberated, how can there still be people harassing the elderly like this!?"

After all, for a hereditary noblewoman, old age was not important. What mattered most was that her family's savior, the deaf old man, was being humiliated. That was something she did not want to see.

If it weren't for the fact that he saved his family, the Iron-Hat King in the original timeline wouldn't have risked so much to forcibly dump so many things in the courtyard on these people, leaving them to resolve matters within the courtyard.

After all, although she didn't want anything to go wrong in order to achieve her goals, she also knew that if even one of those things were to be exposed, her position might be in jeopardy.

Next, Yi Zhonghai completely distorted the truth, vividly portraying Cao Wei as the greatest bandit and tyrant in history.

After hearing this, the Iron-Capped King's face darkened, and he immediately made a decision.

"I will definitely deal with this person."

After receiving the promise from the Iron-Capped King, the two exchanged a smile.

Then, the Iron-Capped King gave the old deaf man a look, and the old deaf man gestured for Yi Zhonghai to go out first. Although Yi Zhonghai was curious about what the two wanted to talk about, he knew that since the other party had already made such a statement...

Staying here would only upset others, so I decided to leave.

The Iron-Capped King first expressed his concern for the old deaf man with a few words.

Then, thinking about the old deaf man's current situation, he couldn't help but add another comment.

"Grandma, how about I help you apply for a government-provided social welfare program for the elderly and disabled?"

After hearing the Iron-Capped King explain the benefits of being a recipient of the Five Guarantees, the old deaf man naturally nodded eagerly.

After that, the old deaf man followed Yi Zhonghai and left the subdistrict office.

At the same time, the Iron-Capped Prince also had information about Cao Wei delivered directly to his desk.

Upon seeing Cao Wei's information, even the Iron-Capped King felt a bit of a headache.

At first, the Iron-Capped Prince thought the other party was just an ordinary person, someone he could at least control. But the key was that the other party was an orphan, and his ancestors had some connection with the Red Army.

To call them relatives of martyrs might be a stretch.

But if it really doesn't count, then people have brought up this reputation, plus the title of orphan at this moment.

With this double buff, it's quite difficult to easily defeat the opponent.

More importantly, after reading about the recent events at courtyard house number 95, her face darkened even further.

Good heavens, I've been completely fooled by Yi Zhonghai.

It's obvious that Yi Zhonghai wanted to embezzle other people's houses first.

To be honest, at this moment, the Iron-Capped King even had some regrets.

In this situation, although the old deaf man may have suffered a loss, it's impossible for her to intervene and bring up past grievances.

After all, it's practically a done deal.

Meanwhile, the old deaf man and Yi Zhonghai were also daydreaming.

The Iron-Capped Kings could stand up for them, but this illusion didn't last long.

Because when they returned, Cao Wei inadvertently caught a glimpse of the two men inside the house, their faces contorted with malice as they looked at his house.

Thinking about the current time, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"It seems that the Iron-Capped Prince is coming, and these two childless individuals are going to start causing trouble again."

While Cao Wei was thinking of a move, the next day, the newly appointed director of the so-called street office, also known as the "Iron Hat King," arrived at No. 95 compound with his men.

This initially excited both Yi Zhonghai and the old deaf man.

As for the Iron-Capped Prince, he had only just taken office, and since those matters were not going to be forgotten, he didn't mention them, only mentioning them intentionally or unintentionally a few times.

"From what I've investigated within our facility, things aren't entirely peaceful. In such situations, some people prefer to use force, which we strongly discourage."

Upon hearing this, almost everyone looked at Cao Wei, who in turn couldn't help but sneer.

He was curious to see what pretext the other party would use to get back at him.

In the end, the Iron-Capped King only mentioned this matter briefly, and then talked about how the old deaf man had become a recipient of the Five Guarantees.

Seeing that the Iron-Capped Prince did not directly target Cao Wei, Yi Zhonghai was greatly disappointed. The old deaf man, on the other hand, was somewhat indifferent, after all, some of those matters were already set in stone, and it would be difficult to use that as a pretext to take action against Cao Wei.

Following that, the Iron-Capped King finally announced an important piece of news.

"Our subdistrict office is not like the military control commission. There are some things that can be managed in a limited way. Therefore, each compound will have a few administrators to help the subdistrict office create a better compound."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Yi Zhonghai's breathing became heavy.

Sure enough, the administrator position he wanted finally came to him.

Meanwhile, the other beastly neighbors also realized the importance of this administrator. Speaking of reactions second only to Yi Zhonghai, that would naturally be the long-silent Liu Haizhong.

After all, he had only held back because he had seen Yi Zhonghai repeatedly suffer setbacks at Cao Wei's hands, and also because he wanted to protect his son from being affected. But now, hearing the word "administrator," he couldn't help but think of his own desire to become an official, and how he would easily manipulate Cao Wei after becoming an administrator, and he suddenly became excited.

As for Yan Fugui, his initial thought was that once he became the administrator, he would be better able to smuggle things from his neighbors, and perhaps he could also use this opportunity to get revenge on Cao Wei.

At least in the eyes of these beasts now, this administrator is already considered to be half an official position.

At this moment, Cao Wei couldn't help but think of the three arrogant old men who had been bullying others in the original timeline.

Now that he was here, he might not be able to reverse the emergence of these so-called "three big shots," but he would prevent these guys from having the chance to ride roughshod over him again. So he immediately spoke up and asked the Iron-Hat King a question.

"Director Wang, I have a question I'd like to ask."
