Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

"Big Li, you are really clever. With me here, how can you suffer any loss? Go find Erniu by yourself."

Big Li chuckled a few times and muttered to himself: It's really unreliable to rely on you.

After Da Li finished speaking, he went straight back to Erniu's house, avoiding the shouts of Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huiru from the middle court along the way. If he was intercepted by them, he would not be able to return to Erniu's house in time, nor would he be able to persuade Erniu to attend the general meeting of the whole court.

Qin Huiru didn't have time to discuss it with Yi Zhonghai. Seeing that Da Li was avoiding her, she mistakenly thought that she was not attractive enough. Qin Huiru was unwilling to give up and decided to try again the next day.

"Uncle, why is Big Li running so fast as if he saw a ghost?" Qin Huiru asked.

Yi Zhonghai looked embarrassed, Da Li was obviously avoiding him. Seeing Da Li returning to the backyard, he thought he had a chance to prevent Erniu from participating, but Da Li ran back again.

"Hui Ru, Lao Li is a villain, even worse than Sha Gen. Don't get close to him. The time is almost up, you go inform Sha Gen, I'll go find Lao Li, and we'll call a meeting for the whole hospital."

Most of the residents have arrived, even the deaf old lady came accompanied by her aunt.

### Retelling

---

Shadan didn't think too deeply about why he was beaten. He thought the old lady was close to Xiaoyue, so he always liked to sit and chat with her.

"Old lady, please wait for Xiaoyue to come over. I'll call him over right away. Please stop hitting me. How can a person in his seventies still have so much strength?"

Shadan's words caused laughter among the people around him, but the old lady just glanced at the ocean.

Haiyang said nothing and turned to Lao Hai. At this moment, Lao Hai panicked. Shadan asked someone to call Dashan. It didn't matter whether Dashan would come or not, but he would definitely be resentful.

Lao Hai caught a glimpse of Haiyang's eyes and knew that Haiyang wanted him to take the blame. In that case, he was not in a hurry, because the beatings of Shadan and Dashan had nothing to do with him anyway.

Lao Hai sat still, and Lao Gui was even more motionless. Haiyang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. This matter concerned his future retirement, and nothing could go wrong.

"Old Liu, didn't Guangtian go to inform Dashan? Why didn't Dashan come?"

Lao Hai took a sip of tea slowly. "Haiyang, didn't Guangtian just say that? Dashan refused to come. Because he couldn't accept that Xiaohu wasn't at the meeting."

Guangtian interrupted loudly: "Yes! Dashan said that every time there is a meeting, Shadan will always hit him in public, and Daye will protect Shadan. Without Xiaohu, he will never attend the meeting."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Before Guangtian finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter. Although Dashan was a coward, he did hit the nail on the head. Everyone had their doubts, and now they were finally confirmed.

Haiyang yelled with a dark face: "What nonsense! We three elders are fair and selfless. When have we ever been partial to anyone?"

There was a chorus of boos and the noise was deafening.

"Without the three of us elders, how could the courtyard be known as a civilized courtyard? Those are the benefits you deserve. Have you forgotten?"

No one responded, the old lady slowly stood up and raised her cane. Shadan stayed close to her, protecting her as if ready for battle. Although everyone didn't care about Haiyang and the others, they had no way to deal with the old lady who often "pretended to be deaf". No one dared to provoke her for fear of being blackmailed.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Haiyang looked at Lao Hai again.

"Old Liu, please say a few words."

Lao Hai pretended to stand up and said, "Today we are calling this meeting to deal with the matter between Shadan and Dashan. However, Shadan has already made compensation and admitted his mistake. Since Dashan is unwilling to participate, I think we should adjourn the meeting."

Lao Gui looked at Lao Hai in surprise, thinking that he must have received some favor from Da Shan. Although he didn't know the details, he thought it was a good deal when he thought that Da Shan would treat him tomorrow.

Haiyang was unhappy: "Lao Liu, how can you let everyone adjourn the meeting? The whole hospital meeting is where we solve problems. How can we end it hastily just because Dashan is absent?"

Lao Hai asked back, "Then what suggestions do you have? How can we hold a meeting without Dashan? Do you criticize the fool?"

Shadan was not convinced: "Second Uncle, why do you criticize me?"

Haiyang looked at the old lady and saw her nod slightly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

"Laogui, go call Dashan and Xiaohu over."

---

---

Laogui came, Haiyang gave in, and Dashan smiled. It seems that Xiaohu's method is correct, and things will go smoothly from now on.

"Jie Cheng, let's go together."

Lao Gui responded, "Brother Dashan, wait a moment, I still have to call Shangyoufu and the others."

"They weren't there either?" Dashan's heart moved and he realized that they were supporting him for Xiaohu's sake.

I was filled with gratitude. These people were very loyal and worthy of being won over. With their help, I was no longer alone and helpless in the hospital.

Seeing Youfu and his friends coming, Dashan greeted them warmly: "Brother Youfu, Brother Cai, Brother Fu, thank you for your support. Please come to Xiaohu's house for a gathering some other day to express your gratitude."

The three of them looked hesitant, and in fact they did not deliberately help Dashan. But Xiaohu gave them a look in time, and they responded with a smile.

Several people arrived at the venue chatting and laughing.

Ocean glanced at them and prepared to officially start the conference.

At this time, Lao Hai couldn't help but stand up:

"Everyone knows about today's meeting. Dashan was attacked and injured by Shadan after returning from showing a movie. This is an unprecedented serious incident in the hospital and must be discussed and dealt with. Having said that, Haiyang, it's your turn to speak next."

In the past, Lao Hai would take the initiative to let the first uncle speak. But after Da Shan reminded him, Lao Hai deliberately downplayed the first, second and third uncles' statements, making himself equal to Hai Yang.

People didn't mind and were used to calling him Lao Hai, so they didn't take it too seriously.

But Haiyang is different. He has no children and is particularly concerned about his title. Originally, he was willing to give up his position as the eldest uncle, provided that he could be provided for in his old age. Now that providing for his old age has become a problem, he has to maintain control over the Siheyuan.

Lin Hai thought: This guy is a typical example of a drag! You are making such a big fuss about this kind of thing, are you afraid that others won't know about it?

"Old Li, stop talking nonsense." Li Shizhu was speechless for a moment, but he quickly hit back.

Xu Daqing stood up and said, "Grandpa, please don't throw dirty water on me. I went to the town in the morning and was not in the factory at all. If you have evidence, just show it to me."

Lin Hai's eyes were almost spitting fire. He couldn't condemn Lao Li, but he was not allowed to accuse you? "Xu Daqing, do you think I don't have evidence? I can expose you by checking the factory. I just want to save your face and don't want you to be punished by the factory leaders."

At this time, the competition was about who had more momentum. If one side admitted defeat, it would immediately be at a disadvantage, and the other side would definitely not show mercy. Xu Daqing knew this very well.

If it weren't for Wang Kun's advice, he would have already given up because of his guilty conscience, and turned from a victim to a person at fault. Xu Daqing said with a stiff upper lip: "It's not true, it's not true! Old man, you don't have to worry about me. If you want to call the police, just tell Wang Kun directly. If you don't want to trouble Wang Kun, you can go directly to the Public Security Bureau."

The rumors were not directed only at Xu Daqing, and everyone knew it. Now that Xu Daqing forced Lin Hai to call the police, everyone inside and outside the yard held their breath.

Lin Hai felt unprecedented pressure, and was forced into a corner by Xu Daqing. He didn't dare to call the police, because that would offend too many people. "Don't call the police at every turn. We are all family, why make a big fuss over these trivial matters?"

After saying that, Lin Hai looked at Wang Kun provocatively.

Wang Kun was calm. Today's main player was Xu Daqing, so he didn't steal the show. Xu Daqing did his duty well: "Old man, if you don't allow me to call the police, I have to give an explanation. Even if you don't call the police, let Lao Li apologize to me."

Old Li snorted, stood up, and walked towards Xu Daqing. "You want me to apologize? You're dreaming!"

Xu Daqing quickly hid behind Wang Kun and Liu Xiu'e, "Uncle Wang, you see clearly! The old man actually let Lao Li deal with me. Lao Li, if you dare to do anything, I will report you to the security department. Wang Kun is the team leader of the security department!"

Old Li stopped two meters away from Wang Kun, staring at Xu Daqing's exposed head, with a fierce light in his eyes. "Wang Kun, are you going to protect Xu Daqing?"

Wang Kun replied: "I am not biased towards Xu Daqing, but his safety is indeed threatened. As a security guard, I cannot stand idly by."

"You..." Old Li pointed at Wang Kun, speechless.

Lin Hai was unwilling to go against Wang Kun, fearing that it would affect the results of the conference. When Xu Daqing pulled Wang Kun, he realized that his plan could not be realized. He took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Lao Li, come back."

With a way out, Lao Li had no choice but to give up. Although he was sometimes deceived, it didn't mean he was really stupid. He knew he was no match for Wang Kun.

Seeing Lao Li retreat, Lin Hai continued, "Xu Daqing, don't always think that Lao Li is bullying you. If you really dare to do that, it's not wrong for Lao Li to beat you. Since he compensated you ten yuan, don't pursue it anymore."

Xu Daqing walked out from behind Liu Xiu'e, thought for a moment, and said, "Let him apologize to me, and I won't pursue the matter of him beating me. Old man, you have to make sure he doesn't chase me and beat me again."

Old Li was reluctant to apologize, but under the persuasion of Lin Hai, the deaf grandmother and Qin Huairu, he had to apologize very reluctantly. The three of them worked together, and Old Li had no choice but to give in.

In this case, it is very difficult for Lao Li to escape from their control, and the situation will not change much even if he gets married.

Xu Daqing had just apologized and did not call the police. Everyone in the yard thought the meeting was about to end and began to quietly pack up and prepare to go home.

Li Haizhong also stood up and delivered a closing speech: "This incident was indeed terrible, but fortunately, the three of us elders were there to administer justice and it was finally resolved satisfactorily. I hope that similar incidents will not happen again in the future, especially Old Li, you must learn to restrain yourself and not speak nonsense. Well, I have finished what I have to say, let's adjourn the meeting."

When everyone heard the meeting was adjourned, they began to disperse, and some even took a few steps away.

Suddenly, Lin Hai knocked on the table: "Wait, there are still some things to deal with, no one can leave."

This move was obviously intended to undermine Li Haizhong, but Lin Hai couldn't care less.

Li Haizhong's face turned pale and he questioned Lin Hai: "Old Lin, why didn't you explain it clearly before the meeting?"

This was indeed a temporary decision made by Lin Hai.
