Courtyard House: Is Xu Damao a childless man? Let me help.

Qin Huairu didn't stand on ceremony, took the money and stuffed it into her bosom, then continued kneading the dough to make steamed buns, while Ye Jianchuan quickly processed the meat he had prepared for tonight and then started cooking the vegetables.

At this moment, Qin Jingru finally came in and started helping to prepare dinner. Soon, a sumptuous dinner was ready.

Qin Jingru looked at the six dishes on the table, including three meat dishes, and her mouth watered. She stared at the dishes on the table without moving her eyes.

Seeing her younger sister's expression, Qin Huairu playfully slapped Qin Jingru on the head and began to complain.

"Look, look, what's so interesting? Jianchuan prepared this especially to welcome you."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jingru turned to look at Ye Jianchuan and said, "Thank you, Brother Jianchuan!"

Ye Jianchuan waved his hand and quickly said, "Don't call me Brother Jianchuan, just call me Jianchuan. We're not sure who's older, I feel... you should be a bit older than me."

Ye Jianchuan was right. Although Qin Huairu said that the two were basically the same age, Qin Jingru was actually almost a year older than Ye Jianchuan.

Ye Jianchuan was still a little unaccustomed to being called "brother" by someone older than him.

After hearing Ye Jianchuan's words, Qin Huairu continued, "By the way, Jianchuan just said that we can't take you to report for work until the day after tomorrow!"

Upon hearing that it concerned her work, Qin Jingru was immediately taken aback, then hurriedly asked, "Huh? Wasn't it supposed to be tomorrow? How did it become the day after tomorrow? Why?"

Qin Huairu didn't speak, but Ye Jianchuan, who was standing to the side, said, "You've just come from the countryside to the city, so there are probably many things you're not used to yet."

So I'll have your sister take you to the city tomorrow to experience city life and also get you a new outfit.

We can't just let you wear clothes like that forever, can we? While we advocate thrift, it doesn't have to be that extreme.

Ye Jianchuan's words were actually a bit strange, but there was no other way. Could Ye Jianchuan really say that it was to prevent Qin Jingru from becoming greedy for money in the future?

Or should we just point it out and say that Qin Jingru's performance today was like that of a country bumpkin?

After hearing Ye Jianchuan's words, Qin Jingru awkwardly stuck out her tongue. However, since Ye Jianchuan had said so, Qin Jingru naturally didn't dare to have any other thoughts.

After the meal, Ye Jianchuan left some snacks for the group and then went straight back to the courtyard house.

As for Qin Huairu, since Qin Jingru had just arrived today, and the two of them were going out shopping together tomorrow, she decided to stay in the courtyard for the night.

As for the two little girls, they naturally went with Qin Huairu. Since the two girls hadn't started school yet, she could buy them something when they went shopping.

However, when Ye Jianchuan returned to the courtyard, he found it unusually lively. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that Jia Zhangshi was up to her old tricks again.

Well, it wasn't really causing trouble, but rather she approached Sha Zhu, hoping he would "uphold justice" for her.

When Ye Jianchuan returned from outside, he saw Jia Zhangshi crying to Shazhu, Second Uncle, and Third Uncle.

“Shazhu, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, you must testify for me! Didn’t I stay at home to recuperate for the past few days because I was injured a little?”

I recovered a little today, so I went back to work at the garbage dump. But the people at the garbage dump said that I had been absent from work without reason for several days in a row, and they fired me!

I was clearly injured at work, and not only did I not ask for workers' compensation, they also fired me. What kind of nonsense is this?

Although the people in the courtyard didn't particularly like Jia Zhangshi, based on what happened today, everyone really felt that it wasn't Jia Zhangshi's fault.

But before Jia Zhangshi could finish speaking, she said, "That's fine, but with my health, even if I could still sweep the floor, I probably wouldn't be able to keep it up for more than a few days."

However, after I returned, I went to the subdistrict office again, but they were not going to assign me any new work.

Tell me, if I were an old woman and hadn't encountered difficulties, who would do such heavy physical work as sweeping the streets?

Now things are really messed up. Because I've exhausted myself, the neighborhood committee won't even give me a job. What am I supposed to do, an old woman like me?

As she spoke, Jia Zhangshi began wiping away tears, sat down on the ground, and started playing the victim.

When everyone saw Jia Zhangshi's appearance, and considering that the matter seemed to indicate that Jia Zhangshi was indeed a vulnerable person, Second Uncle, who was in charge, immediately stepped forward.

“Sister-in-law Jia, we know about this. Don’t worry, we will help you explain to the neighborhood office.”

I'll talk to Director Wang at the neighborhood office and see if they can arrange an easier job for you.

Upon hearing Second Uncle's words, Jia Zhangshi immediately nodded happily, "Good, good, thank you for your help, Second Uncle."

Uncle Er waved his hand, then turned to Sha Zhu and said, "Sha Zhu, shall we go to the neighborhood office together and discuss this with Director Wang?"

The reason why Sha Zhu was to go along was because Uncle Er knew that Sha Zhu's 'rank' was higher than his own. By bringing Sha Zhu along, Uncle Er would have more confidence when he went to the neighborhood committee to discuss these matters.

Sha Zhu had no objection to this matter, nodded, and agreed to it.

Just when it seemed the matter was settled, Ye Jianchuan stepped forward and said, "Ahem... I think it's better to resolve these things sooner rather than later?"

After all, you all know that working a day in the morning means earning an extra day's wages. Since Jia Zhangshi is in such dire straits, let's not delay any longer."

At this point, Ye Jianchuan turned to look at Liu Guangfu beside him and said, "Guangfu, go and run an errand for Director Wang. Here's fifty cents for your service!"

As he spoke, Ye Jianchuan took out fifty cents and handed it to Liu Guangfu. What could Liu Guangfu say when he saw the money? He took the money and ran out the door.

It was actually quite a coincidence. If I were to go to the neighborhood office to discuss this with Director Wang, I would have to walk several blocks, which is quite far.

However, Director Wang's home is less than half a street away, so it would be more convenient to call him over now.

Chapter 224 Jia Zhangshi's Exposed

Of course, Ye Jianchuan wasn't being kind. The reason he suddenly stood up and mentioned it was mainly because Ye Jianchuan knew.

If Jia Zhangshi hadn't done anything wrong, the neighborhood committee would most likely not have refused to give her even this part-time job.

After all, the jobs offered by the neighborhood committee are only for families with relatively difficult living conditions, in order to ensure that more people do not have to worry about not being able to make ends meet due to lack of work and income.

So if you don't have a good reason for providing this kind of work to people with financial difficulties, then if things get out of hand, even the director of the neighborhood office will be in trouble.

Furthermore, given Jia Zhangshi's personality, if she really hadn't done anything wrong, would she have so easily run back to the courtyard to complain?

Based on Jia Zhangshi's past habits, wouldn't she throw a tantrum at the neighborhood committee office? No! She wouldn't even need to go to the neighborhood committee office; she might start throwing a tantrum at the garbage station.

But since Jia Zhangshi didn't do that, the reason is obvious: it must be because Jia Zhangshi herself was in the wrong!

Since she was in the wrong, she had no way to argue with the people from the neighborhood committee, so she came back and came up with a plan, hoping to find something for the neighborhood committee to do through the old man in charge of the courtyard.

If they could help me get a job, that would be the best outcome. Even if I don't get a job, at least I can still annoy the people at the neighborhood committee.

Unfortunately, she ran into Ye Jianchuan while she was causing trouble. Ye Jianchuan might not care about other things, but Uncle Er insisted on dragging Sha Zhu to the neighborhood office, which was something that would affect his own people.

That's why Ye Jianchuan stepped forward and said what he just said.

When Jia Zhangshi heard that Director Wang was to be handed over to the courtyard, she immediately became anxious, after all, Jia Zhangshi knew that she was not in the right!

But by the time she tried to stop Liu Guangfu from going to Director Wang, it was too late. Liu Guangfu, having taken the money, ran out like the wind and quickly disappeared.

When Ye Jianchuan saw Jia Zhangshi looking at him with a slightly resentful gaze, he knew that he had definitely guessed right this time.

Although this offended Jia Zhangshi, well... I've already offended her more than once, so offending her a little more won't make much difference. A multitude of lice doesn't itch anymore.

A short while later, Liu Guangtian ran back alone. Seeing this, Jia Zhangshi was overjoyed, because Director Wang hadn't come along, which meant she still had a 'chance'!

But then Liu Guangtian said, "Brother Jianchuan, Director Wang asked me to come back first. She'll be here soon."

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi felt like she had fallen from heaven to hell. A few minutes later, Director Wang walked in, and surprisingly, he was accompanied by someone else.

When he saw this person come in, the old man who was just passing by in the crowd was taken aback, and then shrank back into the crowd. But he didn't know that Ye Jianchuan had still seen this scene.

As soon as Director Wang walked in, he looked directly at Uncle Er and said, "Master Liu, I just asked Guangfu about the matter you were looking for me in your courtyard. Although I don't know the specifics, I understand the general idea."

I don't want to explain anything further to this Jia Zhangshi. Let Xiao Li from the garbage station explain it to you.

After speaking, Director Wang turned her gaze to the person who had come with her. The person stepped forward and then spoke.

"According to reports from the public, Zhang Erniu seriously violated the regulations of the garbage station during the few days she worked there, shirking her duties and not putting in any effort."

After several days of absenteeism, which severely damaged the sanitation of the street she was responsible for, Zhang Erniu was dismissed as a warning to others.

After finishing speaking, the man paused for a moment, and then continued, "This is an announcement issued by the Municipal Health Bureau the day before yesterday. There were originally some other penalties, but they were canceled because Zhang Erniu is old."

This notice is still posted at our health station. And because of what this guy did, our health station won't be eligible for the title of model worker this year.

We're already being kind by not causing her any trouble, and yet she's acting all aggrieved?

Upon hearing what Xiao Li said, everyone immediately turned to look at Jia Zhangshi, who was now at a loss for words.

After stammering for a while, he finally said, "This... I wasn't absent from work without permission. I was injured, and everyone in the hospital knows that!"

Xiao Li was amused by Jia Zhangshi's words, "You're injured? Even if you are injured, couldn't you have asked someone to help you ask for leave?"

Without any leave requests or medical records, how can our waste disposal site make any allocations?

Director Wang, who was standing nearby, continued, "You all heard it too. It's not that the garbage station has a problem, but that Jia Zhangshi herself has a problem."

As for our neighborhood office, it's the same sentiment. We gave her a job opportunity, but she treated it irresponsibly and even tried to cheat.

Tell me, would we dare assign any kind of job to someone like that?

Now, everyone in the courtyard started pointing and whispering about Jia Zhangshi. Even if Jia Zhangshi was thick-skinned, she couldn't take it anymore.

But at this moment, Ye Jianchuan stepped forward again and said, "Director Wang, we already know about this matter. Thank you so much for your help today."

Oh, by the way, something minor happened in our compound recently. I thought I'd take this opportunity to report it to you, Director Wang, about 2.5.

Our staff discussed and decided that Yi Zhonghai would no longer be the "Uncle One," and the current "Uncle One" is Comrade Liu Haizhong.

Director Wang was a little confused after hearing Ye Jianchuan's words, because she had actually heard about this matter before. However, after thinking about it for a moment, she realized that she had only heard such news, and the people from the courtyard had not actually come to tell her in detail.

So Director Wang turned to look in Uncle Yi's direction and asked, "Master Yi, do you approve of their decision?"

So much time has passed since this incident, so naturally Uncle Yi wouldn't voice any objections. He simply nodded and said, "I have no objections."

Chapter 225 The Old Man Shot His Own Foot

However, it was just this one sentence that caught the eye of Xiao Li, who was standing next to Director Wang. After carefully examining it, Xiao Li spoke up directly.

"This is Master Yi, right? We really have to thank you for what happened with Zhang Erniu. If you hadn't reported her, we might have had to wait several more days to find out that she was cheating!"

After Xiao Li finished speaking, Grandpa Yi froze, because this was exactly what Grandpa Yi had been worried about.

That's right, when Grandpa Yi went to report it that day, the person who received him was none other than Xiao Li, who works at the garbage station.

As luck would have it, this young Li lived in the next courtyard to Director Wang and they had dealt with each other quite a bit. So, to avoid trouble, Director Wang simply brought young Li along this time.
