Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Li Huaide coughed and pretended to be very sad and said, "I am Li Huaide, the deputy director of the steel mill. I guess you are the family members of Comrade Jia Dongxu. Please express your condolences. Our steel mill will definitely take responsibility. Please follow me to the conference room to discuss compensation."

Now the person is dead, although Jia Dongxu was also responsible for the accident this morning. But Director Yang and Li Huaide had discussed it. After all, Jia Dongxu was dead now, so let's just treat it as a work-related death. At most, it's just a little more money. Li Huaide was thinking about it! But he heard Jia Zhang cursing, jumping up and down and saying to Li Huaide, "Express your condolences? You bastards are saying it nicely. My son died in your steel mill, and you asked me to express my condolences, but I will scratch you to death, you bastard."

Jia Zhang rushed towards Li Huaide with a dark face. Li Huaide was very thin and weak, so he was no match for Jia Zhang. After being scratched on the face several times, the secretary next to him and the sentry at the door quickly pulled Jia Zhang away. They really didn't expect Jia Zhang to be so brave and dare to fight with the deputy director at the gate of the steel mill.

When Li Huaide felt the pain on his face, he took a breath of cold air. He Yuzhu had reminded him just now, and he thought He Yuzhu was exaggerating the facts? Unexpectedly, he went even further. He covered his scratched face with his left hand, glared at Jia Zhang fiercely and said, "You crazy woman, I am the deputy director, how dare you fight with me."

"Your son is also responsible for this matter. Your son was not in good condition this morning. The workshop director asked him to go back and rest. Who can you blame for not going back to rest? Our steel mill originally wanted to handle it as a work-related injury, but you dared to attack me, the deputy director. What kind of behavior is this? Do you know?"

Li Huaide was so angry, and he cursed at Jia Zhang with a dark face. Yi Zhonghai came over at some point and said in a sanctimonious manner, "Deputy Director Li, please calm down. This old lady lost her son this morning, and she is in a bad mood. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with her."

"Oh my, someone is murdering someone. Someone is murdering someone in the steel mill. My old man died in the steel mill, and my son got into trouble in the steel mill today. The leaders of the steel mill are irresponsible and want to kill us, an orphan and a widow. Everyone, come and help us. We poor people really can't survive. Old man, please open your eyes and take a good look. I really can't survive."

Jia Zhang started to cry again. It was lunch time, and many workers came to watch the fun. Li Huaide was furious. He cursed with a dark face, "Don't you have anything to do? Go back and rest. If you don't want to rest, you can. How about we have a two-hour battle at noon?"

The workers shook their heads and were driven away by Li Huaide's threats and tricks. They didn't want to start a big battle. They still needed to take a good rest for two hours at noon. They ran away quickly. Although the excitement was beautiful, it was worthless compared to their work.

Li Huaide looked gloomy, looking at Yi Zhonghai who was refusing to leave, and said, "Yi Zhonghai, why don't you leave now? You are showing off, aren't you?" Yi Zhonghai could hear the meaning of Li Huaide's words, and wanted to run away immediately. But he was stopped by Jia Zhang, who said, "Old Yi, we are just two women, you have to make the decision for us. We will leave Dongxu's affairs to you, and you should also participate in the negotiation with the steel mill!"

Li Huaide's face was so dark, and he remembered what He Yuzhu said just now, that Yi Zhonghai had a very good relationship with the Jia family. He resented Yi Zhonghai for meddling in other people's business, but the victim had already said so, could he still let Yi Zhonghai leave? If he really let Yi Zhonghai leave, if this matter got out, there would definitely be a lot of people who would say bad things about him behind his back.

Li Huaide could only nod helplessly and glared at Yi Zhonghai fiercely. Yi Zhonghai was somewhat helpless, but things had come to this point. Even if he had offended Deputy Director Li, Yi Zhonghai could only bite the bullet and admit it! Following behind them, he walked towards the factory meeting room.

In the cafeteria, the news of Jia Dongxu's accident in the first workshop had already spread widely. The workers were discussing while eating. Some people thought that the workload of the steel mill was too heavy, which directly killed Jia Dongxu. However, the workers in one workshop denied that Jia Dongxu was mostly responsible for the accident.

Xu Damao also learned about Jia Dongxu's death in the Propaganda Department and took a deep breath. Thinking of what he said in the morning that Jia Dongxu would die today, he was very scared. Jia Zhang, the ghost in the courtyard, would definitely not let him go. He swallowed his saliva and slapped himself hard a few times.

The announcer Yu Meng next to him asked, "Xu Damao, what's wrong with you? Why did you slap yourself in the face?" Xu Damao said helplessly, "Oh, it's all my fault. Did you know that Jia Dongxu died today?"

A propaganda officer nearby nodded and said, "Of course I know. The news has spread like wildfire in the factory. Could this matter have anything to do with you?" Xu Damao sighed and said, "This morning I noticed that Jia Dongxu was in a bad mental state, as if she had smoked a lot of opium and had no strength in her body. I tried to persuade her and told her to go home quickly to avoid dying in the steel mill. I didn't expect that something really happened this morning. Alas. It's all my fault for being such a bad person."

Yu Meng shook her head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, right? After all, you have good intentions. Since you already know that your physical condition cannot allow you to work in the steel mill, you should take a leave and stay at home."

Officer Zhang next to him thought for a while and asked, "Is it because of their family reasons? Taking a day off will result in a salary deduction, that should be it!" Xu Damao shook his head and said, "It is part of the reason, but of course not all. You don't know that Jia Dongxu's mother is very fat. Most of the food in Jia Dongxu's mouth is eaten by his mother. Jia Dongxu is a young man in his 20s, and his body is thin. I think he weighs less than 100 pounds. Jia Dongxu's accident, his mother is not unrelated."
