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

Old Chen wasn't particularly stingy. He waved his hand and said, "Apart from the things we're taking, you can keep the rest of these things in the room."

Anyway, we can't take much with us, but there's some furniture inside that my daughter might want. I'll have her come back in the next day or two to see what she wants to take.

As for the rest, consider it a gift! You don't need to pay extra.

Ye Jianchuan didn't think much of the furniture, since it wasn't anything valuable. Even if he didn't have any furniture, getting some new furniture wouldn't cost much.

So Ye Jianchuan asked the question he had originally wanted to ask: "Okay, once Uncle Chen's house is sold, when will it be available?"

Old Chen smiled and said, "I've already finished handing over my work here today, and I'm just waiting for your news! We'll go through the formalities tomorrow, and at the latest, the day after tomorrow, I'll be taking your aunt back to our hometown!"

Now Ye Jianchuan was truly relieved. He nodded and then politely said, "Alright, then I wish Uncle Chen a happy and fulfilling life back home!"

Old Chen smiled and chatted with Ye Jianchuan for a couple more minutes before turning around and heading back to the Intermediate People's Court.

Chapter Ninety-Five: Uncle Yi is up to his old tricks again.

Two days later, the news that Old Chen's house had been sold to Ye Jianchuan somehow got out.

Furthermore, Ye Jianchuan's bicycle was no longer a secret. Only then did the people in the courtyard realize that Ye Jianchuan was the hidden 'big boss' in the courtyard!

Of course, the first to know the news was Uncle San. His daughter-in-law, Yu Li, knew someone at the food factory. Ye Jianchuan had only taken Qin Huairu to work for two days when Uncle San learned that Ye Jianchuan had been promoted to deputy workshop director.

Moreover, Third Uncle already knew that Qin Huairu had been arranged by Ye Jianchuan to work at the food factory.

However, Uncle San was quite clever. Even though he knew the news, he didn't spread it around outside, and even his family members forbade him to talk about it outside.

This was all to leave a good impression on Ye Jianchuan, since their previous 'cooperation' had been quite successful and pleasant.

Ye Jianchuan was also happy to continue cooperating with Third Uncle. After all, in this courtyard where troubles occurred so frequently, among the three uncles who were in charge, only Third Uncle could be considered 'fair and just'.

Although he is indeed a bit stingy and likes to scheme against others, he is still quite right when it comes to universal values.

Unlike the other two old men, one of them was desperately trying to become an official. He finally became the manager of a courtyard house and acted like an emperor, with everyone having to listen to him.

The other type is someone who desperately wants to find someone to take care of them in their old age, as if they would starve to death if they didn't scheme to have someone else take care of them.

With Third Uncle providing cover in such a large courtyard, Ye Jianchuan was able to save himself some trouble.

. . . . . .

However, this peaceful period did not last long. Less than a week later, Uncle Yi started causing trouble.

That evening, Ye Jianchuan, Lou Xiao'e, Qin Huairu, and the others had just finished dinner. Ye Jianchuan had just returned to his room, preparing to practice some physical exercises.

Then there was a knock on the door. In the past few weeks, the only people who came to see him were Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e, or the siblings Sha Zhu and He Yushui.

So Ye Jianchuan opened the door without asking any questions, but when he opened the door, he saw a face that he didn't really want to see.

(Blank) 698925850 "Hey, Uncle Yi, what brings you here? Is something the matter?"

"Jianchuan, there's a college-wide meeting later, remember to come!"

Ye Jianchuan nodded, indicating that he understood, and then closed the Jiangmen door.

But inwardly, he started to wonder, "What's going on in this courtyard now? Why are they holding a general meeting for the whole courtyard?"

Has something gone missing again? Has this master thief, Bang Geng, finally stopped stealing from his own home and started stealing from other people's?

But then Ye Jianchuan thought it was unlikely. After all, even if Bang Geng were to steal, the first place he would want to steal from would be his own, right?

After all, she was his number one enemy. He had used candy to sow discord between him and his two sisters, and then his mother made a fuss about dividing the family property. All of this was related to her.

Moreover, Banggeng believes that the reason he can't eat good food is because Ye Jianchuan won't let his family eat with them!

Otherwise, he would definitely be able to eat the same things he ate for the first time after the family split up every day, such as crispy pork and pork slices stewed with cabbage.

After wondering for a while, Ye Jianchuan gave up. As long as the trouble didn't affect him, he could pretend nothing had happened.

After waiting a while, until the sounds from the central courtyard gradually became noisy, Ye Jianchuan carried a small stool to the central courtyard.

It was the same familiar college-wide meeting, and everyone was still watching. However, this college-wide meeting was different from the previous two.

The previous two plenary meetings were actually all caused by Ye Jianchuan, but this time, Ye Jianchuan really acted as if nothing had happened.

However, things changed after the college-wide meeting was held.

After everyone had arrived, Uncle Yi began to speak: "Comrades, the main theme of tonight's meeting is to call on everyone in the courtyard to help our neighbors who are experiencing financial difficulties."

As the saying goes, a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative! We should help and care for each other, lending a helping hand when our neighbors are in trouble. That way, when you are in trouble, your neighbors will naturally help you too. Don't you all agree?

Upon hearing what Uncle Yi said, Ye Jianchuan immediately felt that something was wrong, because once such a slogan was shouted out, the next step should be to ask everyone to contribute money and effort, right?

Sure enough, after shouting his grand slogans, Uncle Yi immediately revealed his true intentions: "Today, let's talk about the families in our courtyard who are facing difficulties."

As everyone knows, the Jia family had a very difficult life before. Qin Huairu worked alone to support three children and an elderly person.

However, Qin Huairu later chose to separate from the family, and after that, no one paid any more attention to their situation.

"But the reality is that, although Qin Huairu found a job with the help of some people in the compound after the family split up, her quality of life improved a lot."

However, as the other side of the family division, Granny Zhang from the Jia family could only send her nephew from the countryside to take over the Jia family's workstation at the steel rolling mill.

Logically, one job should be enough to support three people, but since he's just starting out, he doesn't receive full pay. Therefore, Grandma Zhang's nephew, Zhang Xiangdong, only earns fifteen and a half yuan a month.

"With this income, it's really a stretch to support three people, and Grandma Zhang's health isn't very good either; she has to spend a few dollars every month to buy medicine."

As a result, their family started to have financial difficulties, so I wanted to discuss with all the neighbors whether they could donate some money to help them make ends meet.

"It will take at least six months until Zhang Xiangyang's job becomes permanent. Once he's permanent, he'll earn over twenty yuan a month, which will be enough to support a family of three."

After saying that, Uncle Yi turned to Uncle Er and asked, "Uncle Er, what do you think of my suggestion?"

Chapter Ninety-Six: You want me to pay twenty? I won't pay a single cent!

Ye Jianchuan was completely baffled by this scene. Why would Uncle Yi ask Uncle Er for his opinion? Wouldn't Uncle Er disagree with him?

But to Ye Jianchuan's surprise, something unexpected happened: not only did Uncle Er not object to Uncle Yi, but he also sided with Uncle Yi.

“I think Uncle Yi is right. This Jia Zhangshi is sick and needs to take medicine. There are two adults and one child in the family. Their monthly income is barely enough to make ends meet. With the medicine, it is very difficult for them to survive.”

Our courtyard house is a community that strives to be a model of civility. At times like these, we should show good manners and help each other out. How about this? I'll start by donating ten yuan!

Feeling that something was amiss, Ye Jianchuan glanced at Uncle Yi and Uncle Er on the stage, then turned to look at Jia Zhangshi sitting below.

To be honest, Jia Zhangshi really has lost a lot of weight and looks much more haggard than before. She really looks like she hasn't eaten enough.

But this is actually normal, because even if they wanted to eat their fill, there was nothing for them to eat!

The remaining food in the house was basically what Qin Huairu had bought with her wages before the family split up.

Aside from cornmeal and some wheat flour, there wasn't much else to eat. Eating cornmeal porridge every day, how could she not lose weight?

Bang Geng had at least stolen a few eggs before, which improved the family's meals a bit, but Qin Huairu became clever afterward and simply stopped keeping anything at home!

Go ahead and steal it! There's nothing to eat or drink in the house! Let's see what you can steal now!

So what did Qin Huairu eat when there was no food at home? Of course, she ate with Ye Jianchuan and Lou Xiao'e.

Lou Xiao'e is a woman who is not short of money, and Ye Jianchuan can get some meat to eat every now and then. The meals are much more abundant than when they used to eat Sha Zhu's leftovers.

The two little girls are noticeably stronger than before thanks to such a lavish meal.

As for Qin Huairu, needless to say, not only is she eating better than before, but more importantly, she is also receiving care from Ye Jianchuan!

So not only does her complexion look rosier than before, but her figure is also more 'plump and curvy' than before.

Uncle Er took out ten yuan from his pocket and put it into the 'donation box' that Uncle Yi had brought out. Uncle Yi followed suit and took out two ten-yuan bills.

“My family is relatively well-off, so how about this, I'll donate twenty yuan to the Jia family!”

After speaking, Uncle Yi turned his gaze to Uncle San, but Uncle San pretended not to see him and remained seated in a daze.

Because Uncle San had no intention of paying for it at all, and Uncle Yi and Uncle Er obviously hadn't discussed it with Uncle San either.

Seeing that Uncle San was pretending to be stupid, Uncle Yi had no choice but to speak up: "Uncle San, as the third oldest in the courtyard, you shouldn't want to see disunity in our courtyard, right?"

Of course, I know your family is facing some difficulties, so please don't contribute too much!

Although Third Uncle wasn't entirely happy about it, First Uncle had already brought it up, so it wouldn't be easy to pretend not to know and brush it off.

So after thinking for a moment, Uncle San could only grit his teeth and take out a few small bills from his pocket.

"My family's situation is indeed quite difficult, and we don't have much money left, so I'll just donate one yuan!"

Seeing that the third uncle also took out his money, although it wasn't much, it was still money! Taking out money represents an attitude. Now that all three uncles in the courtyard have taken out their money, this donation can be considered to have been completed!

So after seeing Uncle San take out his money, other neighbors also started taking out their money one after another.

Soon, most of the people in the front and middle courtyards had taken out their money, and the donation box was soon brought to Ye Jianchuan.

When the old man saw that it was Ye Jianchuan, he could still say a few flattering words, "Jianchuan, you should be quite well-off now, right? You even have a bicycle now, and you're eating well every day."

Although Lou Xiao'e is currently living in Old Chen's house, I heard that you bought it with your own money?

Since you're so generous, why don't you contribute a little more this time? I won't ask for more; I've already contributed twenty, so how about you contribute twenty like me?"

When Ye Jianchuan first heard about the money donation, he thought it was better to avoid trouble and that he would just contribute a few cents.

At worst, I can just treat it as giving money to a beggar. After all, these two old men have actually teamed up, and there's probably something fishy going on. If I take the lead and donate, I might just fall into their trap.

However, Ye Jianchuan never expected that these guys not only wanted to fool everyone in the hospital into donating money to the Jia family, but also wanted to treat him like a fat sheep and ruthlessly fleece him.

Now, Ye Jianchuan was quite displeased and directly said, "Uncle Yi, I'd like to ask you something... is the Jia family really in such dire straits?"

... .......

When Uncle Yi saw Ye Jianchuan's appearance, he frowned and said, "Of course their family is struggling! Look at Granny Zhang, she was so strong before the family split up! Now she's lost so much weight!"

Ye Jianchuan nodded and said, "Okay! Even if their family is having some difficulties right now, as far as I know, they should get paid in about a week, right?"

Once they get paid next week, their family won't be in trouble anymore, right? With your twenty yuan, Uncle Yi, it should be enough for them to last until next week's payday, right?

If that's the case, why do we ordinary residents need to donate money?

Upon hearing Ye Jianchuan's words, Uncle Er immediately became displeased, slammed his hand on the table, and said, "Ye Jianchuan! Didn't you hear what Uncle Yi said? They're currently receiving apprentice wages!"

An apprentice's salary is only fifteen and a half dollars a month, barely enough to support three people. If they spend any more money on medicine, they won't be able to afford any!
