Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

Seeing that the people from the street office were about to take action, Yi Zhonghai was completely panicked and he was really scared.

Jia Dongxu also quickly stopped the person who came, "Wait a minute, wait a minute."

"Director Wang, even if my master made a mistake, it's not necessary for you to arrest him. We can't just criticize and educate him like before. I'll have my master write a self-criticism, a public one, and apologize to Uncle Fang and the others, okay?"

Jia Dongxu begged Director Wang desperately, and Yi Zhonghai also echoed him, saying that he knew he was wrong, was willing to review himself, and was willing to apologize.

Director Wang snorted coldly, "It's too late to apologize! Why didn't you do that earlier? Now you're being taken away for punishment. You know you were wrong and you remembered to apologize. Why didn't you think about the consequences when you said those words just now? Take me away!"

Following Director Wang's order, Yi Zhonghai was carried away from the scene, with only his words of apology, "I know I was wrong and I will never do it again," lingering in his mind.

Director Wang then came over to the Fangtu couple and Gou Wazi and said, "I understand everything that happened just now. Yi Zhonghai is no good. You should raise the child well. I believe Gou Wazi will be a filial child."

Gou Wazi also showed a determined look, "Don't worry, Director Wang, I will work hard to let grandpa and grandma live a good life in the future."

Director Wang half-knelt down and touched Gou Wa Zi's head. "Good, good boy."

At this time, Jiang Yue stepped forward and said, "Uncle Fang, I think we should let Director Wang give Gou Wazi a name. A child should have a good name."

Fang Tu was a little moved and quickly said, "Yes, yes, Director Wang, please give this child a name."

"This," Director Wang hesitated slightly.

"Director Wang, please give me a name."

Looking at Gouwazi's expectant eyes, Director Wang nodded.

After thinking about it, she picked two names and gave them to Gouwazi to choose from, one was Fangzheng and the other was Fangyuan.

Gou Wa Zi thought about it for a moment, then said firmly, "From now on, my name will be Fang Yuan!"

"Okay, my eldest grandson has a name now. Fang Yuan, what a nice name." Fang Tu said happily, "Thank you so much, Director Wang."

"It's nothing. This child is the first one adopted by our neighborhood office. I hope he will be fine."

After promoting the relevant policies to the crowd, Director Wang returned to the street office to deal with Yi Zhonghai's problem.

Fang Tu also introduced Fang Yuan again in front of the neighbors in the courtyard.

What no one expected was that Fang Yuan looked only six or seven years old, but he was almost nine years old. He was just malnourished and underdeveloped, and he just needed to be nurtured for a period of time.

Yi Zhonghai was taken away, and the people in the hospital were both happy and sad.

For example, Xu Damao was extremely happy and insisted on taking Jiang Fan back for a couple of drinks.

"Ezi, go and coax Xu Xiao. Jiang Fan and I will have a drink in this room. Don't worry about us."

Xu Damao brought a plate of peanuts, sat down and opened a bottle of wine.

"Wait a minute, you only want a plate of peanuts? You won't give me any other dishes?"

Jiang Fan was also happy. If other people invited him to drink at this time, it would be nice to have peanuts, and he would not be picky.

But the person in front of him is Xu Damao, the projectionist at the steel rolling mill and Lou Zhenhua's son-in-law. Who would be frightened by such a small thing?

Xu Damao tutted his words, "This is where you're wrong, brother. What's the main reason we drink?"

Jiang Fan nodded slightly, "Eat! If you don't have enough food at home, tell me. I have something that can be eaten with wine and snacks."

"Why don't you go home and get some? What's the point of just eating peanuts?"

"You're special!"

Jiang Fan stood up helplessly and went home to get two cans.

"Beef, good stuff, worthy of you."

As soon as Xu Damao opened it and smelled it, he knew that it contained more than 90% beef, which was definitely top-notch stuff.

Two cans made up a dish, and Xu Damao took a few salted duck eggs, which made up another dish.

A bottle of wine and three dishes is a luxury.

"Tsk, what do you think Yi Zhonghai is doing today? It's like he's having a seizure." After drinking a cup of wine, Xu Damao asked.

Jiang Fan analyzed, "What my sister-in-law said just now is actually pretty much right. Yi Zhonghai's opposition to Uncle Fang and the others adopting a child is actually a validation of his decision to find Jia Dongxu to take care of him in his old age."

"He felt that adopted children were unreliable, so he refused to adopt them. But if Fang Yuan is a good child and will be filial to Uncle Fang and his family in the future, then this proves one thing: what Yi Zhonghai insisted on was wrong. A person like him would not let such a thing happen."

Xu Damao seemed to be lost in thought. After a moment's thought, he said, "So Yi Zhonghai is trying to prove that choosing Jia Dongxu as his retirement home was the wisest choice? What kind of train of thought is this?"

Just because Fang Tu's behavior might affect his wise choice, he stopped Fang Tu from taking care of him in his old age. Didn't he ever consider that if Fang Tu really listened to him and sent Fang Yuan back, who would take care of Fang Tu in his old age and see him to the end of his life? "

Jiang Fan shrugged. "No one. Do you think Yi Zhonghai would let Jia Dongxu take care of Uncle Fang until his death? If he's not around, he'll be thankful he already found someone to take care of him. He's that kind of person, haha."

Xu Damao once again realized Yi Zhonghai's shamelessness. You say you don't allow people to adopt children, but why don't you provide them with elderly care?

Tut tut

On the other hand, Jia Zhang was very angry when she learned that Yi Zhonghai was taken away by the street office. She scolded Fang Tu and others for being ungrateful and ungrateful.

Director Wang is also a bad official who arrests people indiscriminately. Her dear brother Hai just said a few truths, so why was he arrested?

Chapter 358: Yi Zhonghai's Punishment

"Stop talking here!"

Sitting in a chair, Jia Dongxu pressed his hands to his temples. His head ached, a terrible headache. This day was truly miserable.

When Jia Zhang heard this, she immediately shut up and dared not say anything more.

After a moment, Jia Dongxu stood up and said, "I'm going to the street office to inquire about the situation. You all stay at home and don't go out."

Jia Dongxu planned to go and see how the subdistrict office would punish Yi Zhonghai and whether it would be serious.

At this time, Jia Zhang seemed to have thought of something and asked Jia Dongxu to wait for her.

Then she quickly ran to Yi's house and brought out a quilt. "Dongxu, your father might be detained at the neighborhood office. Please bring the quilt to him. It's cold at night and it would be bad if he caught a cold."

Seeing the concern on Jia Zhang's face, Jia Dongxu was upset and wanted to swear in his heart.

They have only been married for a few days, but she cares so much about Yi Zhonghai. She really treats herself as the daughter-in-law of the Yi family.

But he didn't refuse and left with the quilt.

Another person who was equally happy tonight was Liu Haizhong. Seeing Yi Zhonghai being taken away, he was extremely happy and even poured himself half a glass of wine.

But he was so happy about it, but he didn't expect that everything he did was considered by Aunt Meng to be out of love and hate, and she thought that Liu Haizhong loved Yi Zhonghai so much that he had such a reaction.

"Liu Haizhong, Liu Haizhong, I really don't know which of you two, you and Yi Zhonghai, is the male? And which is the female?"

For a moment, sadness surged in her heart and Aunt Meng covered her face and cried.

In the street office, Yi Zhonghai was locked in a small room.

At first he was still struggling, telling people outside that he knew he was wrong and asking for another chance.

But no one paid any attention to him.

Yi Zhonghai really regretted it at this time. He shouldn't have gone to find Fang Tu. He should have waited for that little beast to grow up and then laugh at Fang Tu.

Not long after, Jia Dongxu came to the street office with a quilt. After explaining his purpose, Director Wang came to see him in person.

"You're smart enough to bring the blanket over. I was just about to send someone to notify you."

Jia Dongxu asked hurriedly, "Director Wang, where is my master? Can I go see him?"

Director Wang nodded and said, "Come with me. We also need to tell Yi Zhonghai about his punishment."

Jia Dongxu hurried to catch up with Director Wang. After a few steps, he wanted to ask how Yi Zhonghai would be punished, but he swallowed the words back. He would know soon, so it wouldn't take too long.

When they arrived at the room where Yi Zhonghai was imprisoned, Director Wang made a gesture and the guards immediately opened the door.

When Yi Zhonghai saw Director Wang coming, he quickly stood up, reflected on himself, and admitted his mistake.

But Director Wang raised her hand to interrupt him. She didn't want to hear it.

"Yi Zhonghai, you don't have to be like this. It's too late to admit your mistakes now. I'm here to tell you about how we'll deal with you."

"what?"

Yi Zhonghai was a little confused. He had already admitted his mistake, so why was he still punished?

"Ah what?"

Director Wang gave him a disdainful look. "Do you think you can get away with violating policy by simply admitting your mistake? Let me tell you, if this matter gets serious, you'll be a criminal hindering the country's development and progress!"

"Yes, yes, Director Wang, whatever you say, I will accept any punishment and complete it conscientiously." Yi Zhonghai lowered his head and said very obediently.

Director Wang then announced the punishment for Yi Zhonghai, which made his face turn pale and his body tremble slightly.

"After discussion with our neighborhood office, we've decided to subject you to seven days of labor reform and ideological education. You'll live here for the next seven days. We'll also notify the steel mill about this matter."

This was Yi Zhonghai's punishment, and it was no small measure. Seven days of labor reform was a stain on his file, a stain on his life.

Especially since they have to notify the steel mill, won’t this make him unemployed?

Yi Zhonghai currently works as a warehouse manager, making a little over 30 yuan a month. While the salary is low, the work is easy. He sits down, gets tired, checks everything, and the day is over.

"If the steel mill knew that I had a stain because of something like this, I would probably lose my job as a warehouse manager," Yi Zhonghai thought.

Jia Dongxu, who was standing by, also thought of this, so his expression turned unhappy. Yi Zhonghai already had no savings, and if he lost his job, his family would not be able to survive.

"Director Wang, you can't inform the steel mill. If the factory leaders find out, I'll lose my job."

Yi Zhonghai knelt down in front of Director Wang, crying and sobbing about the difficulties in his life, from his disabled hand, divorce, and money being stolen, hoping to win Director Wang's sympathy.

Jia Dongxu also joined in, saying that if Yi Zhonghai really lost his job, he would starve to death supporting a family of six by himself.

The two men's words were very pitiful, and Director Wang was also very annoyed by them. She couldn't really drive him to death, so she decided to go to the steel mill to negotiate and try her best to prevent them from firing Yi Zhonghai.

The master and apprentice thought that they would not notify the steel mill and thanked him profusely.

Director Wang didn't want to stay any longer, so he told the guards to give Jia Dongxu only five minutes to talk to Yi Zhonghai, and to leave immediately when the time was up.

After saying that, she left and even called the steel mill. Anyway, they only promised not to fire Yi Zhonghai. It was still possible to transfer him to another position, such as cleaning, removing excrement, or demoting him to a temporary worker. This was all feasible!

After Director Wang left, Jia Dongxu looked at Yi Zhonghai with extremely complicated feelings.

"Hey, Dad, why do you want to ask Uncle Fang and the others to adopt a child?"

Yi Zhonghai opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopped, then smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Jia Dongxu sighed helplessly, "Dad, my mom asked me to bring you a bed and quilt. I thought the neighborhood office would close it for a day, but I didn't expect..."

The two were silent for a while, neither of them knowing what to say.

Yi Zhonghai forced a smile and said, "Fortunately, I have saved my job. If I lost my job, I really don't know how I would survive."

Jia Dongxu also agreed. The family was already burdened with heavy expenses, and if Yi Zhonghai also became a freeloader, he might as well buy some arsenic, pour it into the pot, and share it with the whole family.

No need to worry about going hungry anymore.

Soon the five minutes were up, and at the urging of the guards, Jia Dongxu left.

Yi Zhonghai looked at the door that closed again, and remembered the punishment he had received. Endless regret filled his heart.

"I'm so stupid, really. Why did I go to Fangtu and tell him all this? If I hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have been beaten, I wouldn't have been caught by Director Wang, and I wouldn't have received such a humiliating punishment. I almost lost my job."

"I'm so stupid, really, if I had known..."

Chapter 359: Yi Zhonghai's Punishment

The next day, several leaders of the steel rolling mill gathered together for a brief meeting to discuss the news from the street office.

The participants included Director Yang, Deputy Director Li, Secretary Meng, the union president and the warehouse manager.

"Everyone knows the news. How should we deal with Yi Zhonghai? Let's talk about it." Director Yang spoke first, his tone flat, even a little impatient.

In fact, Yi Zhonghai could barely be considered his man, but without the blessing of his status as a senior fitter, Yi Zhonghai was not very important to Director Yang.

"What can we do? Our steel mill is a key unit. If there's a stain on a worker, it must be dealt with seriously."

"I agree. Besides, Yi Zhonghai made the mistake of obstructing the implementation of a policy. While it could be a minor or major mistake, the news from the subdistrict office indicates that this policy is urgent. And Yi Zhonghai just happened to be caught in the crossfire."

Several people discussed and the basic step was to deal with Yi Zhonghai seriously.

Director Yang also nodded. He had no intention of saving Yi Zhonghai. It was not worth it.

But he still said, "Director Wang from the Subdistrict Office, taking into consideration the actual situation of Yi Zhonghai's family, has suggested that they try not to fire him and transfer him to another position. So, let's give Yi Zhonghai a serious warning and have him go to the sanitation team to clean."
