Siheyuan, the opening gun is aimed at Yi Zhonghai

Chapter 10: The First Plenary Session (1)

Yi Zhonghai naturally understood what Director Wang meant. He looked at Zhou Zheng with amusement, then cleared his throat and spoke.

"Ahem, everyone, be quiet. There are two purposes for holding this meeting today. First, it is to promote the spirit of unity and love among our neighbors. Zhou Yunhai from the East Cross Courtyard died while protecting the steel mill, and now only Zhou Zheng is left. As you all know, when He Daqing abandoned Zhuzi and his sister, what a life they had! We don't want similar things to happen again, so I hope everyone can help Zhou Zheng overcome his difficulties with the spirit of unity among neighbors, respecting the elderly and loving the young."

Li Youcai, a resident of the central courtyard, said, "Uncle, we are a well-known advanced courtyard in Nanluoguxiang. We will definitely help our neighbors if they are in trouble. But now everyone's life is not easy, and everyone has limited ability! If we want to help, there must be a rule, right?"

Yi Zhonghai smiled softly. He was very satisfied with Li Youcai's performance! He picked up the enamel pot, took a sip of tea, and said confidently, "Youcai is right. There must be a rule for how to help residents, but you can't underestimate us, the street office chose us to be the managers, that is, to help us residents solve their problems. The three of us have thought about this rule a long time ago."

Liu Haizhong saw this as an opportunity to show off, and hurriedly replied, "That's right, Lao Yi is right! Lao Yi, Lao Yan and I, the three of us, have been thinking hard for several nights to come up with this solution. Director Wang happens to be here too, so let Lao Yi talk about it and let Director Wang give us some guidance."

Yi Zhonghai took over the conversation and said, "We know that everyone has a hard time and has their own difficulties, but we have to help Xiao Zhou. Zhou Yunhai was a hero who sacrificed for the factory. We can't let the hero's child suffer while we watch him. There is no reason to let the hero bleed and cry."

Wang Guizhi also praised him appropriately, saying, "Well said! This is the civilized compound that our street hopes to see. When one side is in trouble, all sides will support it. We will not abandon or give up, and we will overcome the difficulties together! Lao Yi said it well!"

Zhou Zheng twitched the corners of his mouth, and for a moment, he seemed to understand Xu Damao's helplessness.

This combination of punches seems to be really "selfless and great".

After hearing what Wang Guizhi said, Liu Haizhong also wanted to stand out and show off, but his cultural level was too low, and he couldn't say anything as pleasant as Yi Zhonghai, so he could only watch and worry.

As soon as the term "civilized compound" was mentioned, the other residents who were in the meeting also became excited and started talking about it over and over again.

Yi Zhonghai waited for the topic to ferment for a while before he put down his hand and continued, "Ahem, everyone, please be quiet for a moment, and we'll continue."

To be honest, Yi Zhonghai's prestige in the compound is still quite high. At least after hearing what he said, the neighbors stopped discussing and looked at Yi Zhonghai, waiting for what to happen next.

Yi Zhonghai raised the corner of his mouth, and saw that the people's hearts could be used!

So he continued, "Originally, I thought that we just needed to donate some money to Xiao Zhou! But after a discussion among the three of us, we realized that this is not the case at all. There is a family in Ximen who is in a similar situation to Xiao Zhou. Their parents died early, leaving a half-grown boy to live alone. Their courtyard was kind-hearted and donated a lot of money to him. But the market is so chaotic now, and he can't support the family by himself. I actually don't want to mention this, after all, it's not a good thing. But I have to mention it here. Just last month, this child took the money donated to him by the courtyard to buy New Year's goods, but who would have thought that he would never come back after this trip. Needless to say, everyone can understand that something is probably wrong. As the old saying goes, a child carrying gold in the market! This is not what we want to see."

Wang Guizhi also nodded, she also knew about this matter.

When everyone heard this, they all said that they could not donate to Zhou Zheng. They finally found a reason not to donate.

Yi Zhonghai smiled faintly, everything was under control.

"But what can we do? We can't just stop eating because of choking, right? At this time, I thought of another poor family in our yard, the Jia family in our middle yard! A few years ago, Lao Jia had an accident at the steel mill, leaving behind an orphan and a widow. Everyone can see how difficult it is. Later, Dongxu took over Lao Jia's job and life became better. Thanks to the help of kind neighbors in our yard, Dongxu also got married a few years ago. Jia's wife, Xiao Qin, is also a filial daughter-in-law, and everyone can see it! This year, she gave birth to a big fat boy. It should be said that the boy looks pleasing to the eye! But the problem is that the Jia family has only one room, and now Aunt Zhang, Dongxu, Huairu, and Banggeng, four people are squeezed on a kang, which is not convenient! Speaking of this, Director Wang from the Street Office happened to be there, so I asked for Dongxu's family."

He looked at Wang Guizhi and gave her a subtle look.

Wang Guizhi understood and immediately asked, "Well, Lao Yi! You are the uncle of Yard 95, so you should take responsibility for the residents in the yard. If you have any difficulties, just tell the organization. The organization will definitely help you if it can."

Yi Zhonghai also hurriedly followed suit and shouted slogans: "Trust the streets, trust the organization!"

Then he gave Jia Zhang a look.

Jia Zhang understood and immediately fell to the ground and began to complain.

"Oh my God... No, no, ahem, Director Wang, our Jia family is suffering. Old Jia passed away early, leaving us an orphan and a widow. What should I do..."

Jia Zhang was also very embarrassed, paralyzed, and forgot her lines.

Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly turned dark. He knew that Jia Zhangshi was unreliable, so he quickly stopped her.

"Sister-in-law!"

Then he winked at Jia Zhang frantically.

Jia Zhang blinked her eyes, totally unable to understand what Yi Zhonghai meant, but fortunately she stopped wailing.

Yi Zhonghai hurriedly spoke up to remedy the situation.

"Director Wang, Jia's sister-in-law is not well-educated and won't speak when she gets excited. We are all neighbors in the same courtyard, and everyone knows her situation. To put it bluntly, her house is not big enough, and it is not suitable for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to sleep on the same kang. She has applied to the higher authorities several times. Can you see if there is an extra house to arrange for her?"

Wang Guizhi frowned. She always felt that it was a mistake to come here to cooperate with Yi Zhonghai in acting, as if she had put herself in the role. However, she couldn't get angry and instead kept a cold face.

"Old Yi, I have to talk to you about this. Didn't you explain it clearly to the residents in the courtyard? The distribution of houses is not the responsibility of the street office. Some houses belong to the steel rolling mill and the Second Cotton Mill. Can we distribute them just because we say so? The residents don't know the situation, and don't you, as the manager, know the situation?"

Yi Zhonghai's expression changed and he forced a fake smile.

Auntie Wang Guifen quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Director Wang, our Lao Yi has good intentions! He just wants to see if our street can handle special circumstances in a special way. He has no other intentions."

Yi Zhonghai also walked down the stairs: "Yes! That's it! That's it!"

Wang Guizhi snorted lightly, but still felt a little unhappy.

Zhou Zheng found their clumsy performance a little funny. He probably didn't expect Yi Zhonghai to speak like that.

At this time, Yan Fugui, who had been silent, coughed lightly.

"Ahem, Lao Yi, let's get down to business!"
