Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

As soon as Yan Bugui finished speaking, Liu Haizhong immediately stood up, waved his hand and shouted:

"I'm the first to disagree. There has never been such a precedent in our alley. In the past, when people in our courtyard made mistakes, they were punished to sweep the courtyard at most. How could they go out to sweep the alley - and sweep the floors of other courtyards?"

"That doesn't make sense! This! In the future, if someone in another courtyard makes a mistake, can they come and sweep the floor for us? It's a joke, absolutely!"

Liu Haizhong first refuted towards the neighbors, then turned around and gave Director Wang a flattering smile before retreating back into the crowd.

Jia Zhang followed closely, pointed at Yan Bugui's nose and retorted: "You said that it would be fine if you asked them to sweep the floor, but why do you want me, an old lady, to sweep the courtyard for others?"

"I have never had anything to do with that traitorous old deaf lady!"

Originally, Yan Bugui nodded in agreement when listening to Liu Haizhong's rebuttal, which was not beyond his expectations at all.

But Jia Zhang had the nerve to stand up and say that she should not be punished. Yan Bugui immediately became angry and started cursing regardless of the presence of Director Wang.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, you have the nerve to say it's none of your business. Have you forgotten what happened yesterday morning? You threw a tantrum on the ground in front of so many neighbors in the alley, bringing shame to our yard, and you still have the nerve to say it's none of your business!"

"If you ask me, your punishment should be heavier than Lao Liu and Lao Yi. At least their mistake was unintentional this time, and they have to contribute to the country at the steel mill during the day. But you just sit around in the yard every day and do nothing!"

"I--" When Jia Zhang heard Yan Bugui's insults at her, she immediately straightened her neck and wanted to retort.

As a result, when Yan Bugui saw it, he immediately shouted even louder: "Jia Zhang, you don't have to quibble. So many neighbors were watching yesterday morning. Whether you should be punished like this, the neighbors will vote to decide!"

Seeing this scene, Director Wang looked at Yan Bugui in surprise. This is what it means to be a boss!

"She should be punished. I've never seen anything like this before, in the alley..."

"No ten-year-old can be like her..."

As soon as Yan Bugui finished his words, noisy discussions broke out in the courtyard. Recalling the final humiliating escape yesterday morning, everyone pointed their guns at Jia Zhang.

Seeing that no one in the neighborhood spoke up for her, Jia Zhang looked at the three old men and Director Wang on the stage, and silently huddled aside.

Having been scared twice, she really doesn't dare to throw a tantrum again today!

"Dongxu, please open your eyes and take a look. The whole compound is bullying your mother..." Curling up in a corner, Jia Zhang narrowed her triangular eyes and began to mutter again, wanting to curse to death those neighbors who had harmed her!

After both of them showed their heads, Yi Zhonghai stepped out with a frown on his face.

He groaned and said, "Uncle, I accept the punishment you said. We did something wrong this time!

But you just said you were going to punish us by sweeping the alleys and other courtyards, without giving us a detailed method, time, etc. You just said it casually, and the neighbors voted, what are you going to say next?"

"this--"

Yan Bugui scratched his head, glanced at Xu Damao and Director Wang, and said with a stiff upper lip:

"Or we can punish them all by cleaning the courtyards. After all, there are cleaning teams in the alleys. There are 38 courtyards in our alleys. You and Lao Liu will clean each one three times. As for Aunt Jia—"

Yan Bugui said as he looked at Jia Zhangshi: "She has a lot of free time, and she is deliberately trying to discredit our compound. In my opinion, she should be scanned nine times one by one, which is not too much!"

As soon as Yan Bugui finished speaking, Xu Damao stood up and continued, "I would like to add one more thing. In order to prevent them from banding together and cheating, and not completing the punishment according to the quality and quantity, all these sweeps are completed in one day!"

"I suggest that each person can only clean one compound per day, and then report to the three of us. We will then go to the compound to verify the sanitation situation. Only then will it count!"

"That makes sense, that makes sense!" Yan Bugui looked at Xu Damao with praise in his eyes.

Yi Zhonghai's face darkened when he heard this, but he did not refute. His bangs, which were forgotten by everyone, frowned and counted with his fingers.

He murmured in disbelief, "Four months? It has to last until the first month of next year?"

When he thought about the fact that they would be celebrating the New Year in the courtyard and he would have to clean the courtyard for them, Liu Haizhong jumped out in panic and retorted:

"I don't agree. It's fine if I'm punished by sweeping the floor, but I have to sweep the floor for other compounds. How embarrassing! And I have to sweep for four months. That's too long. I don't agree!"

Jia Zhang was still counting on her fingers, but when she heard Liu Haizhong say that he would sweep for four months, and then multiplied by three, didn't that mean she would have to sweep for 12 months, a whole year?

Thinking of this, Jia Zhang couldn't stay in the corner any longer, and quickly jumped up and shouted, "I don't agree either. You want me, an old woman, to sweep someone else's yard for a year. What are you thinking, Yan Bugui?"

Seeing that both of them disagreed, Yan Bugui was about to open his mouth to refute, but Director Wang waved his hand to stop him, looked at Yi Zhonghai and said: "Comrade Yi Zhonghai, what do you think?

If you have any, please bring them up and I will explain them to you together!"

Yi Zhonghai drooped his face and shook his head, saying, "I have no other opinion. This punishment method has been carefully considered by the three uncles, voted fairly by the neighbors, and supervised by the leaders of the street office. No matter what the result is, it is reasonable and appropriate, so I have no other opinion."

Seeing the scene of the three uncles today and the attitudes of Director Wang and many of his neighbors, Yi Zhonghai understood that it was a foregone conclusion that the three of them would go to sweep the compound, and there was no need for him to raise any opinions!

In order to avoid offending Director Wang and many neighbors, it is better to agree to it directly. This will be more respectable than Liu Haizhong and Jia Zhangshi.

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Liu Haizhong couldn't help but widen his eyes. Yi Zhonghai, this taciturn guy, is actually so good at flattering!

In order to curry favor with the emperor, he even ignored the shame and went to sweep the floor in another compound.

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's words, Director Wang couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. This is a smart person who knows what's best for him!

Thinking of this, Director Wang turned his head and looked at Liu Haizhong again: "Comrade Liu Haizhong, after listening to Comrade Yi Zhonghai's ideas, do you still retain your previous opinion?"

"I!"

Liu Haizhong looked at Yi Zhonghai, then at the three old men and Director Wang standing in front of the table. No matter how unwilling he was, he had to lower his head.

"I have no opinion!"

"Hmm!" Director Wang hummed, agreeing with Liu Haizhong, and then looked at Jia Zhang and asked, "What about you, Comrade Zhang Cuihua?"

Seeing Liu Haizhong bowed his head, Jia Zhangshi could only bow her head and say, "I have no objection either, but this year——"

Before Jia Zhang finished her grumble, Director Wang looked at Yan Bugui and said, "Now that the three parties have no objection, let's start voting!"

"Yes!" Yan Bugui nodded in response, then looked at the many neighbors and said, "Those who agree with our proposal can raise their hands. One vote per family!"

Everyone has been bullied in the alley these days, so naturally they are willing to push the three bullied people out to other people's compounds. As long as they have laughed enough in the compound, this will at least reduce the criticism of them.

So not surprisingly, almost every family raised their hands.

"Twenty-one, twenty-two, a total of twenty-two votes in favor!"

Yan Bugui finished counting the votes, then looked at Director Wang and reported, "Director Wang, the number of votes in favor has far exceeded half of the votes. According to the procedure, we can directly announce the results!"

"Ok!"

Director Wang snorted lightly, showing no intention of interfering.

Seeing that Director Wang did not raise any objections, Yan Bugui turned around and looked at the neighbors.

"Neighbors, the punishment for Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai and Zhang Cuihua has been decided, and they have all accepted the punishment. So, please do not mention this matter again.

If there is anyone who gossips about someone else behind their back, and says bad things about someone else, then next time it will be him, and we will make him sweep the yard for others!"

After listening to Yan Bugui's announcement of the results, Li Muhua happily clapped in the crowd.

"Pa bang bang~~"

There was thunderous applause in the courtyard, and even Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai joined in the applause reluctantly.
