Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the third aunt's eyes, "Old Yan, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. We can join forces with Yi Zhonghai to deal with Liu Haizhong!"

Yan Bugui sighed and said, "In fact, Yi Zhonghai had approached me a long time ago and wanted to instigate me to deal with Liu Haizhong together, but I did not agree at that time."

The third aunt raised her eyebrows and said, "That's great. You can go find Yi Zhonghai now. He will definitely agree..."

Yan Bugui pondered for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute!"

"The situation is urgent, what are you waiting for?" the third aunt said anxiously.

Yan Bugui frowned and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? What if Liu Haizhong didn't do this? Then wouldn't I be a free thug for Yi Zhonghai?"

"Didn't you just insist that it was Liu Haizhong who did it? Why are you now doubting whether he did it?" the third aunt asked curiously.

Yan Bugui said seriously: "At first I did conclude that it was Liu Haizhong who did it, but when I learned that he was promoted today, I began to doubt it again!"

"Although Liu Haizhong can't be called stupid, he can't be called very smart either. I don't quite believe that Liu Haizhong has a brain. While he is trying to seize the team leader position, he still has the energy to plot against me. So I decided to ask Liu Haizhong tomorrow and then make a decision."

The third aunt nodded slightly, "You are really thoughtful!"

……

The deaf old lady's room.

"My dear grandson, why did you bring me food so late? Do you want to starve me to death?" the deaf old lady complained.

He Yuzhu felt unhappy when he heard this, and he said inwardly: "Old thing, it's good enough to have something to eat, but you're still picky. If I don't think you're still useful, I'll turn around and leave, starving you to death!"

Although He Yuzhu was dissatisfied in his heart, he pretended to be guilty and said, "Old lady, I'm sorry. I was delayed today. To express my apology, I specially fried a portion of twice-cooked pork for you!"

The deaf old lady's eyes lit up when she heard this, "My dear grandson, where is the twice-cooked pork? Give it to me now..."

"Greedy old fellow!"

He Yuzhu cursed inwardly and handed the aluminum box to the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady opened the aluminum box, drooled at the sight of the twice-cooked pork in the box, and couldn't wait to wolf it down. She looked as if she hadn't eaten for eight lifetimes.

He Yuzhu's eyes flashed with contempt, and he pretended to be concerned and said, "Old lady, slow down, don't choke!"

The deaf old lady said intermittently: "It's... so delicious, dear grandson, pour me a glass of water!"

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu picked up the teapot in the corner and poured a bowl of water for the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady took a sip of water and said with satisfaction, "My dear grandson, the faster you cook, the better it will be. It would be great if I could eat such delicious twice-cooked pork every day!"

He Yuzhu's mouth twitched, and then he said with shame on his face: "Old lady, Zhuzi is useless, I can't fry meat for you every day."

The deaf old lady pretended to be angry and said, "Zhu Zi, what are you talking about? I was just joking with you. I don't mean to blame you."

"With the shortage of supplies, how can we eat meat every day? Even Yi Zhonghai, who earns 99 yuan a month, can hardly eat meat once every ten days or half a month."

He Yuzhu grinned and said, "Old lady, I have been promoted to deputy director of the canteen, with a monthly salary of more than 100 yuan, which is higher than Yi Zhonghai..."

The deaf old lady was overjoyed when she heard this, "Great! Zhuzi, you have finally made it. Even if I die now, I can rest in peace."

He Yuzhu complained: "Old lady, what are you talking about? You will definitely live a long life. I will make many delicious foods for you to eat!"

The deaf old lady said lovingly, "Grandma, as long as I am full, don't waste your money. Save it for marrying a wife. My biggest wish now is to have a great-grandson."

He Yuzhu said confidently: "Don't worry, old lady, I will let you hold your great-grandson as soon as possible."

The deaf old lady smiled and said, "My dear grandson, do you have a goal?"

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Old lady, I do have a goal. If everything goes well, I will be able to give you a great-grandson next year!"

The deaf old lady suddenly said seriously, "Don't let anyone know that you have a target. There are many people in this compound who don't want you to be well."

"From what I know, Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu, and Xu Damao don't want to see you get married. If they get the news, they will definitely do everything they can to sabotage you!"

He Yuzhu said sternly, "Don't worry, old lady. After the painful lesson of the last failed blind date, I will definitely keep the news secret until I get the marriage certificate."

"Every failure makes you wiser. Zhuzi, you have grown up!" said the deaf old lady with a look of satisfaction on her face.

The next day.

He Yuzhu was riding his bike to work, and when he was about to reach the steel mill, he saw Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong immediately stopped the car and said in a friendly manner, "Second Uncle, why are you here so early today?"

Liu Haizhong's face was filled with a bright smile, "I have been promoted to team leader, right? I should lead by example!"

He Yuzhu immediately gave him a thumbs up and complimented him, "As expected of you, you are the Second Master. With this promotion, your awareness and realm have improved instantly. I must learn from you!"

He Yuzhu's flattering words made Liu Haizhong feel a little flattered, and he said in an old-fashioned way:

"Zhu Zi, you are still too young and have a lot to learn. Second Master will teach you when he has time!"

A trace of disdain flashed across He Yuzhu's eyes, which disappeared in an instant, and then he turned into an expression of being flattered, "Thank you, Second Uncle!"

"Compared to the righteousness of the Second Master, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui are far inferior. Yi Zhonghai is selfish and hypocritical, but Yan Bugui is also hypocritical and has no shame. How could Yan Bugui do such a shameless thing?"

He Yuzhu looked extremely distressed.

Upon hearing this, Liu Haizhong immediately asked, "What unscrupulous thing did Yan Bugui do again?"

He Yuzhu was filled with indignation and said, "Yan Bugui is a swindler, using the pretext of introducing a date to defraud me of my money..."

Liu Haizhong laughed and said, "Yan Bugui is capable of doing such a thing!"

He Yuzhu said angrily: "How can such a morally corrupt person be qualified to be the third master of the compound?"

"Second uncle, I think it is enough for the compound to have one uncle in charge. Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui are not qualified to be compared with you. If they are here, they will only bring bad atmosphere to the compound."

"Is it enough for the compound to have only me as the manager?"

Liu Haizhong's eyes lit up, and then he hesitated and asked, "Will Director Fang of the street agree?"

He Yuzhu said seriously, "Second Uncle, you are so outstanding and now you are the workshop leader of the steel rolling mill. Why does Director Fang disagree?"

"Besides, many compounds only have one manager. If there are too many managers, they won't have unified opinions, and it will be difficult to manage the compound..."

When Liu Haizhong heard this, his eyes rolled around and it was obvious that he was moved.
