Comfortable life in Siheyuan

"Since the eldest uncle has retired, let's elect another one to be in charge, who can better serve and manage the compound." Xu Damao said with a smile!

"Anyone who is interested in being a housekeeper can raise your hand and sign up now. What do you think, Old Liu? Do you want to sign up to be a housekeeper?" The third uncle looked at Liu Yaohui, wanting to see his willingness.

"Uncle, I'll forget it. I haven't been in charge of the hospital's affairs for all these years, and I haven't managed people in the factory. I'm not suitable." Father Liu waved his hands and declined.

"I'll sign up. I think the manager of our hospital should also integrate with the young cadres. As the team leader of the G Committee, I can also better lead everyone to learn and improve." Xu Damao recommended himself with a smug look on his face.

"You still want to be a uncle? Don't you think you are qualified? It's hard for you to even be a grandson!" Sha Zhu retorted bluntly.

"How come I am not qualified? I tell you, Sha Zhu, you should be polite when talking to me. I am a member of the G Committee now, and you two are both in the factory." Xu Damao looked back and forth at Sha Zhu and Tian Xiuyun with unfriendly eyes and said in a threatening tone.

"Hey! Grandson, don't think you're great just because you can be a team leader. No matter who takes the turn in the yard, it's never your turn to be the boss." Sha Zhu directly retorted.

"Old Yi, this position is vacant by you, see who is more suitable?" Liu Haizhong asked.

"Actually, I prefer the Liu father and son. Either of them can be the boss, but their family isn't very keen on the affairs of the courtyard, and there's no one to compete with Xu Damao now." Uncle Yi Zhonghai said in a low voice with an unwilling look on his face.

"Then I suggest that Liu Qingshan be the one. What do you think?" The third uncle whispered to the other two.

"Okay, let's do this! I think everyone in the hospital will agree!" Liu Haizhong affirmed.

At this time, the third uncle stood up and said with a smile: "Xu Damao's suggestion just now is very good. I think Liu Qingshan from our hospital is suitable to be a manager in terms of academic qualifications and ability. What do you think?"

The third uncle knew that there was no hope for Liu Qingshan to step forward on his own, so he simply decided the matter and let the neighbors in the compound push him forward.

"Yes, yes, yes! Liu Qingshan is suitable!"

"Liu Qingshan can become the deputy factory director, so of course it's no problem for him to be a manager!" Everyone started talking about it, and Xu Damao's expression visibly darkened.

The fact that Liu Qingshan was the deputy director of the box factory was no secret in the hospital, and everyone in the hospital knew about it.

Seeing that the matter was almost settled, Liu Qingshan stood up in a hurry and declined, saying, "My dear uncles and aunts, I really don't have the extra energy to take care of the affairs of our hospital. As you know, I usually go on business trips quite a lot. I can't be a big shot and not take care of things."

Everyone in the yard started chatting again, some agreed and some disagreed.

"Qingshan, the manager doesn't have things to do every day. When you're not around, Lao Liu and I can discuss how to deal with it. Don't refuse." The third uncle continued to persuade.

"Uncle, you are wrong. Liu Qingshan has already said that he can't be the leader anymore. Aren't you forcing him?" Xu Damao immediately retorted.

"Qingshan, I think you should not refuse this matter, otherwise Xu Damao will take advantage of it!" Sha Zhu looked at Xu Damao with disgust and said loudly.

"Silly Zhu, what does it have to do with you? It's not anyone's turn, so you'd better go wherever you want." Xu Damao said angrily.

"Xu Damao, don't think that I won't beat you just because you're a team leader. Believe it or not, I'll make you call me grandpa in a while!" Sha Zhu raised his fist and took a few steps towards Xu Damao.

"Everyone calm down. Is there anyone willing to be the manager? If not, let's start voting." The second uncle shouted loudly, and the yard instantly became quiet.

"If anyone else wants to participate, please sign up quickly and don't waste time!" echoed the third uncle.

"Dear neighbors, let me say a few words!" Father Liu stood up and said to the people in the yard.

Everyone in the yard looked over and continued, "Qingshan is indeed not suitable to be the manager. He has a lot of work to do, so I shamelessly ran for him. Also, it's not appropriate for him to be called uncle at his age!"

After hearing Liu Yaohui's interruption, the whole yard suddenly burst into laughter.

"Okay, since Old Liu has said so, we can't completely ignore other people's wishes! Then Liu Qingshan doesn't count, so only Old Liu will participate!" The third uncle made the decision.

"The ones participating in the election now are Lao Liu and Xu Damao. Everyone start voting by raising your hands," Liu Haizhong announced.

"Just one person from each household needs to raise their hands. Not everyone needs to do so. I will count the votes now! Raise your hands if you want Xu Damao to be the manager." The third uncle didn't want to waste any more time. He had already foreseen the result, so he simply sped up.

The people in the yard looked at each other, and finally Xu Damao was the only one standing there, with his hand raised.

The scene was so awkward that Liu Qingshan couldn't stand it anymore and voted for Xu Damao.

"Okay, Xu Damao has two votes. Next, please raise your hands if you agree that Liu Yaohui should be the manager!" As soon as the second uncle finished speaking, everyone in the yard raised their hands.

"It seems that I don't need to count the votes, the result is already obvious. Let me announce it. Liu Yaohui will be the third uncle, and Liu Haizhong and I will be ranked first. I am the second uncle, and Liu Haizhong is the first uncle." The third uncle announced with a smile.

"No, calling them Second Uncle and Third Uncle are already easy to pronounce. You two will not be used to calling them that if you change it like this. Why not just let Uncle Liu be the First Uncle? This way you don't have to change the name, how convenient!" Sha Zhu joked with a smile.

"Sha Zhu, this is a very serious occasion. You can't change it just because you say so. Lao Liu is new in office, so he should be the third uncle." Liu Haizhong scolded Sha Zhu sternly.

Are you kidding? He finally got rid of Yi Zhonghai, how could Liu Haizhong possibly find another big boss to get ahead of him and suppress him?

"That's right. I don't think it's necessary to change the name. From now on, you can call us Second Aunt or Third Aunt. People who don't know will think it's the same as before." Xu Damao, who failed to be selected, also joined in the fun.

"So, I am the third uncle. From now on, you don't have to call me the third uncle. Just call me Uncle Liu, and my wife can be called Aunt Liu. This way there won't be any confusion." Father Liu hurriedly spoke out to stop them.

My goodness, he hasn't even started to act as the boss, but things have already started to get chaotic. A leader who doesn't even hold a position can still be so greedy. It's really eye-opening.

"Okay, let's do as Lao Liu said. I will report the election results to the street office tomorrow and the matter is settled." The second uncle, oh no, it was the first uncle Liu Haizhong who hurriedly announced the result.
