Siheyuan, my new life

Faced with so many people's accusations, Yi Zhonghai immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He had never thought that just because he favored Jia Zhang, he would arouse such resentment among the residents. Yi Zhonghai's mind was quickly thinking about how to get out of the current predicament. As for the matter between Yan Bugui and He Daqing, he had no intention of paying attention to it at all.

Yi Zhonghai slapped the tabletop twice, and found that no one paid attention to him, so he had to grab the big teapot and hit it hard on the tabletop a few times. Such a big noise immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the courtyard, and the scene became a little quieter. Yi Zhonghai quickly said: "Dear neighbors, I, Yi Zhonghai, admit that there are some flaws in handling matters related to the Jia family. This is also because Dongxu is my apprentice, and it is not easy for the Jia family to be an orphan and a widow, so I have taken care of their family a little bit. Here I promise everyone that I will definitely treat the matter of the quadrangle fairly and justly in the future. As for what He Daqing accused me of saying just now, the matters in the quadrangle should be resolved in the quadrangle. My original intention was to maintain the reputation of our quadrangle, so that we can also get the reward of an excellent quadrangle. As long as we get the title of an excellent quadrangle, the street office will give each household some rewards at the end of the year. I hope everyone will not be deceived by some people. After all, getting the title of an excellent quadrangle will benefit everyone in the end."

He Daqing sneered and clapped his hands twice, and shouted loudly: "Yi Zhonghai, you don't need to be so eloquent here. I have witnessed no less than five times that you deliberately favored Jia Zhang. However, due to work reasons, I often come back late and I didn't see many things. Since the whole courtyard meeting is held today, I propose that all the neighbors present count together how many times Yi Zhonghai has deliberately favored Jia Zhang. At the same time, let's also count how many times Yan Bugui has taken advantage of the neighbors by taking advantage of his position as the manager. After the statistical results are out, I will report this result to the street office on behalf of the residents of our No. 95 courtyard. As for Yi Zhonghai's defense that it was for the sake of advantage, The evaluation of the excellent Siheyuan only proposed that the problems in the Siheyuan should be solved by the Siheyuan. I think this is just an excuse for him to achieve some ulterior purpose. Just think about it and you will understand. For the so-called excellent Siheyuan title, how much grievance do you have to endure? How much loss do you have to bear? Can the little things given by the street office at the end of the year make up for the actual damage you have suffered? What's more, our Siheyuan has a second uncle like Liu Haizhong who manages things. Now our reputation in Nanluoguxiang is already stinking. I guess there is no hope in the next three to five years if we still want to be rated as an advanced Siheyuan. If you don't worry about your children having difficulty getting married and finding a job in the future, then continue to tolerate Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui doing this."

Everyone at the scene was in an uproar. If some people thought Yi Zhonghai's words made sense, after hearing what He Daqing said, everyone immediately realized that after Liu Haizhong came out of the No. 95 courtyard, it was already notorious. If it continued like this, not to mention the children getting married and starting a family, even finding a job would be even more difficult. As long as people knew the notoriety of the No. 95 courtyard, who would marry someone who lived here? Which unit would recruit people from this courtyard?

Many people immediately started shouting, "No, we must not let Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui be the bosses anymore, otherwise we will not be able to survive in the future."

Hearing more and more people shouting and cursing, Yan Bugui was now sitting on a stool with his neck shrunk like a quail, his face pale and his whole body weak. He was feeling mixed emotions. Yan Bugui, who always prided himself on being a cultured man, no longer had the mind to maintain his so-called decency. He had never thought that he was just picking up some worthless little things from the residents of Courtyard No. 95 every day, but now he had aroused the anger of so many people. He lowered his head in silence, fearing that someone would notice him. Now Yan Bugui no longer cared about the title of steward that he was about to lose. What he was most worried about was that those angry residents would lose their minds and beat him up. With so many people around him, even if each of them punched him, it would be enough for him to bear.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned pale and he clenched his teeth. Now he was thinking about how to calm the anger of the residents of the courtyard house and keep his title as the manager. If he didn't have the identity of the manager, how could he turn the No. 95 courtyard house into his ideal retirement home?

Yi Zhonghai glanced fiercely at the trembling Yan Bugui. If looks could kill, he would definitely cut this old man Yan, who was more likely to cause trouble than to do anything, into pieces. If it weren't for him, Yan Bugui, who had provoked He Daqing repeatedly tonight, how could he be in his current predicament?

When he thought of He Daqing, the hatred in Yi Zhonghai's heart was like a volcanic eruption. If He Daqing had honestly followed what he had agreed with the deaf old lady, how could these idiots in the courtyard openly rebel tonight? It was all He Daqing's fault for taking the lead in making trouble. It was precisely because of He Daqing, the deputy director of the canteen of the steel rolling mill, that the idiots in the courtyard had a backbone. Otherwise, they could only obey his command honestly.

Yi Zhonghai now even hated the deaf old lady who fled from the battlefield. Although he didn't know what He Daqing said to the deaf old lady, the fact that the deaf old lady left him alone without a care in the world was a betrayal. Yi Zhonghai secretly made up his mind that he would never let this damn old lady go if he had the chance in the future.

Yi Zhonghai saw that the residents attending the general meeting in the Central Court were becoming more and more agitated. He realized clearly that if he could not act decisively to stop this situation, then once someone took the lead in causing trouble, he and Yan Bugui would definitely be in danger. Although he did not care about Yan Bugui's life or death, he did not want to put himself in danger.

So Yi Zhonghai smashed the big teapot a few times, and when the scene was a little quiet, he immediately took the opportunity to shout loudly: "Everyone calm down and listen to me. Since I became the manager of our courtyard, I have not received a penny of compensation. I work hard every day and mediate conflicts and deal with disputes for the residents of our courtyard. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard. I also organized a donation meeting for the neighbors of our courtyard to help the needy residents solve their life problems. I also took the initiative to spend money and effort to take care of the deaf old lady in the backyard. For this reason, I was awarded the title of moral model by the street office. Although I have some problems in handling matters related to the Jia family, this cannot erase my contribution to our courtyard."
