Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

Ye Wenwu deliberately directed the trouble to the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai and the second uncle Liu Haizhong. He wanted to see who these two men would choose between their jobs and the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady also looked at the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai and the second uncle Liu Haizhong who were sitting in front.

"Ye Wenwu, what do you mean? This whole hospital meeting tonight was held with the unanimous approval of the three of us."

Uncle Yi Zhonghai could only bite the bullet and say it. Yi Zhonghai just calculated in his mind that if Ye Wenwu told the factory about this matter, the factory would probably let it go for the sake of his face, after all, it also involved carrying an old lady.

"Yes, Ye Wenwu, what do you mean? Are you questioning us, the managers?"

The second uncle Liu Haizhong, who was sitting next to them, also spoke up. Only the third uncle Yan Bugui had a wry smile on his face. He knew that Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haidong had both expressed their opinions, and now everyone was waiting for him, the uncle in charge, to express his opinion.

"I...I neither support nor oppose this matter, so don't look at me."

Hearing that the third uncle Yan Bugui did not explicitly express his opposition, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong felt relieved at once. What they were afraid of was that Yan Bugui would jump out and express his opposition, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the three of them?

"Do you really like to be so aggressive? You have to make a scene to the point of destruction. Why should I, Ye Wenwu, bear the responsibility for something he did so stupidly? I'm making this clear today. You won't get a penny of this money unless you take it out of me."

Ye Wenwu said coldly.

"Cousin, let's take the stools and go back. I thought it was something important, but you can bring up such a trivial matter. I am really impressed."

My cousin Zhang Xingbang immediately stood up to cooperate, took the small stool in his hand and laughed.

"Cousin, your courtyard is really full of smoke and miasma. You have brought up such trivial matters, and now you are not being reasonable. You are really a fool."

Ye Wenwu and his cousin Zhang Xingbang had not taken a few steps when the same scene as last time appeared again, except that this time Sha Zhu was not there.

"Are you going to do it again like last time, with everyone in the hospital threatening the two of us to hand over the 250 yuan? I'm afraid you can't afford the 250 yuan."

Ye Wenwu said coldly.

"Ye Wenwu, I am doing this for your own good. I don't want you to cause a conflict with anyone in our compound. Don't force everyone to take action."

The deaf old lady still had a smile on her face. In her opinion, today's victory was a sure thing.

The last time, Yi Zhonghai used the same method to make Ye Wenwu throw out 30 yuan as compensation to Jia Zhangshi. This time, she would use the same method.

As for him, after Ye Wenwu paid the money, it would be useless even if he called the police. Everyone had already spoken with the same story, and the police would not believe him, Ye Wenwu.

"Old lady, I, Ye Wenwu, am also a member of our Red Star Courtyard. If you really have to do this, I will pay the money, but I will also report it to the police station. I want to see whether you or the country has the final say in this Red Star Courtyard."

Ye Wenwu had already seen a hint of public money at the door, and then he took out 250 yuan from his pocket and held it in his hand.

The man blocking the road in front immediately snatched the 250 yuan, ran to the deaf old lady and handed it to her.

Seeing that her plan had been implemented, the deaf old lady conscientiously reminded Ye Wenwu.

"Wenwu, I know you're such a bad kid, but I'd like to give you another piece of advice. Don't go to the police station to report the case. Who can prove it for you? Your family members? You might as well go back and have a good sleep and go back to work tomorrow."

A smile appeared on Ye Wenwu's lips. He really couldn't hold it back. He didn't expect that these people would cooperate with him so well in acting out this scene. It was estimated that the police behind the gate of the courtyard couldn't wait any longer.

. . . . . .

The two public security comrades who were called by their cousin's wife at the beginning thought it was a trivial matter until they arrived. But when they arrived at Hongxing Courtyard and listened to half of the story, their faces became much more serious.

How could this be a small matter? This was simply a den of robbers. A group of people forced one person to pay. Thinking that there were only two of them, he quickly asked his apprentice to run back and call for help.

The deputy chief of the police station who was on duty tonight was also alarmed by this incident, and hurriedly rushed to the Red Star Courtyard with the only three remaining staff on duty.

When the deputy director arrived, he heard someone in the yard saying that if he didn't pay the money, he wouldn't be able to leave the door, and his face darkened.

Then he waved his hand and five or six policemen rushed in.

"Everyone, stop moving. Put your hands up. We are the police."

Everyone was in high spirits at first. After completing this task, they forced Ye Wenwu to take out 250 yuan and were very proud of it.

Unexpectedly, a group of people suddenly rushed out from the front yard with guns in their hands. Everyone was so scared that they immediately squatted down.

The deaf old lady holding the money looked at the police officer in front of her with a confused look on her face.

The three managers sitting on the front table looked as if they had seen a ghost and fell on the table one by one.

When Ye Wenwu and his cousin Zhang Xingbang saw the police breaking in, they quickly squatted down, but there was a hint of excitement in their eyes.

"Jin Suo, everyone is under our control, no one has escaped from here."

The deputy director named Jin Suo frowned and looked at the twenty or so people in front of him with hatred.

"Be alert. If you see someone doing something unsafe, shoot immediately."

"Yes, Jin Suo." The police officers responded in unison.

"Captain Liu, it's too dangerous to have so many people gathered together. We need to send them to the police station and detain them as soon as possible. Let them be in charge of five people each. If they see someone trying to escape, shoot them once as a warning. If they don't listen, shoot them directly."

Afterwards, all the people were escorted out in groups of five, leaving only Ye Wenwu and Zhang Xingbang, with his cousin's wife standing beside them in fear.

“Comrade Wenwu, thank you so much. If you hadn’t dared to come to our police station to report the incident, we would still not have known that the people in this compound could actually let out such a big thing.”

Jin Suo on the opposite side held Ye Wenwu's hands and said with gratitude.

Ye Wenwu shook his head and said a little embarrassedly:

"Chief Jin, I have to thank you public security comrades for this matter. If you hadn't arrived in time, believed what we said, and patiently waited behind the door, I would have been bullied by the people in the compound."

Jin Suo nodded.

"That's all I have to say about my thanks, but you still need to come with me to the police station and cooperate with me."

Ye Wenwu and his cousin Zhang Xingbang looked at each other, nodded, and went to the police station with the public security comrades.
