Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan
Chapter 7: The matter is over, angry at the deaf old lady
Zhou Jin heard a threat in Yi Zhonghai's words. He really didn't know how to live or die. He even dared to threaten him in this situation. He really couldn't tell the difference between the big king and the small king.
"Uncle, what you said is not right. What do you mean by the Jia family is a group of orphans and widows? Jia Dongxu is older than me, isn't he a man? Can't he support the Jia family?
And who told you that young people must give way to others? Is this world unreasonable and only considers age?
Your idea is very dangerous. Just because you are old, you can't expect everyone to take care of the elderly. That doesn't make sense."
Yi Zhonghai didn't expect that Zhou Jin was so difficult to deal with. Not only did he not care about his threats, he also refuted his views in public. If he really let it go, all his efforts over the years would be in vain.
"Xiao Zhou, I admit that what I said just now was not rigorous enough, but you don't have to hold on to it. I am just expressing my own opinion and it does not represent others."
"Uncle, don't forget that you are the uncle appointed by the government, so you represent the image of the government. How can you casually say such incorrect views?
Even if you say you are only expressing your own views, it is wrong for you to express inappropriate views in front of so many people in the street office and the courtyard at a general meeting of the whole courtyard. "
How come Yi Zhonghai didn't expect Zhou Jin to be so eloquent and not give him any face at all? The key point is that he doesn't know how to refute now.
Seeing that Yi Zhonghai seemed to have nothing to say, Zhou Jin didn't want to waste any more time. However, this alone was not enough to kill Yi Zhonghai.
It would be better to resolve the house issue as soon as possible, so the topic was brought back to the issue of compensation.
"Okay, as for the previous question, you should go down and reflect on it carefully. Don't waste everyone's time here.
I have no problem with the apology you just proposed, I can accept it, but I am not satisfied with the amount of compensation. "
When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he understood that this person was trying to get more money. As long as he didn't continue to make trouble, it didn't matter if he had to pay more. Anyway, you still have to live here in the future, so I have a way to make you pay the money.
"Then tell me what you think first."
“I have no objection to the 300 yuan rent, but only 50 yuan in compensation is definitely impossible and unrealistic.
The Jia family has lived in my house for five years and has made it a mess. I took a rough look yesterday and found that all the furniture I left behind before I left was gone, and the walls, doors and windows were all damaged.
After the Jia family moves out, I will have to clean these three rooms and buy furniture. Do you think fifty dollars is enough?
Besides, Jia Zhang kept insulting me yesterday. You should know that I am a martyr's relative and a veteran who has made military achievements. If I report her to the police station, she will have to go to jail.
But for Director Wang's sake, I don't want to make a big deal out of this, so how about this, you just give me 800 yuan for rent plus compensation, that's it, no bargaining, if you agree then pay, if not we'll see you at the police station."
When Jia Zhang heard that she had to pay 800 yuan, she could no longer sit still and started to howl, "Oh my God, this little bastard is so mean, he doesn't want me to live, he just asks for 800 yuan, how can our family have so much money, isn't this just forcing me to death?"
Yi Zhonghai was originally preparing to bargain with Zhou Jin, but when he saw Jia Zhang suddenly do this, he was immediately overwhelmed. He hurried over to help Jia Zhang up and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. We are still discussing this matter. Don't make a fuss."
Then he said to Zhou Jin: "Xiao Zhou, you have seen that the Jia family has four people, and will soon have five people. They all rely on Dongxu's salary. They really don't have that much money to compensate. And you and Dongxu grew up together, so don't push them too hard."
"I'm not asking for an exorbitant price. You see, she insulted me many times. If I report it to the police station, she will have to go to jail for at least one or two years. And there's also compensation for my mental damage. All added up, it's not expensive.
Besides, not having money is not a reason for her to occupy my room. If she has done something wrong, she should think about the consequences. Anyway, 800 yuan, no bargaining. If you give it to us, the matter will be over. If you don’t give it to us, we will go to the police station. You can do whatever you want.”
Seeing that Zhou Jin was not moved by any persuasion, Yi Zhonghai immediately signaled to the aunt with his eyes. The aunt understood immediately and left the crowd and walked towards Mrs. Long's house.
After a while, an old lady came to the central courtyard with Mrs. Long. In fact, the old lady had been listening in the house. The noise in the central courtyard was quite loud. The deaf old lady was not really deaf. On the contrary, her hearing was better than that of ordinary young people.
When everyone saw that it was a deaf old lady, they all made way for the ancestor of the courtyard.
When the deaf old lady arrived, she first asked Director Wang: "Wang girl, what happened? You've been making so much noise for so long."
"Old lady, did I bother you? The Jia family occupied Zhou Jin's house, and now Xiao Zhou is back. He came to our street office to seek help. We are now discussing the compensation."
After listening to this, the deaf old lady looked at Zhou Jin again. Although they both lived in the backyard, they basically had no intersection. Zhou Jin felt that the deaf old lady was a little creepy, and her mind was all on Sha Zhu.
"Zhou family boy, you have lived in this compound for more than ten years. We are all neighbors. We see each other every day. There is no need to make things so awkward.
Besides, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. After all, Jia Zhang is your elder. There is no damage to your house, and you will all live in the same courtyard in the future.
In this case, you should consider the old lady's face and ask for less compensation. After all, the Jia family is not easy, and you can't force them to death."
Zhou Jin laughed when he heard it. I don’t know you well. If the system didn’t require me to sign in only in the courtyard, do you think I would be willing to live with a bunch of beasts like you? You occupied my house and want to morally blackmail me? No way.
"Old lady, that's not what I meant. First of all, my last name is Zhou and her last name is Zhang. There is no relationship between our two families. Where do the elders come from? My elders are all heroes who have dedicated themselves to the country, not these lazy old hags.
Secondly, I am not familiar with you. We have not had any contact for more than ten years. Why should I give you face and damage my own interests? Moreover, if you do something wrong, you must accept the punishment. This is an eternal truth and no one can say anything about it.
I was forced to death. If the Jia family hadn't been greedy and occupied my house, would this have happened? Old lady, you are so old, how can you not understand such a simple truth? It seems that you are getting more and more confused as you grow older," Zhou Jin retorted.
When Zhou Jin said this, everyone around was shocked. Wow, he is really a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. He actually dares to talk to the ancestor like this.
The deaf old lady could no longer suppress the anger in her heart when she heard that Zhou Jin not only did not give her face but also called her old and confused. She was the ancestor of the Siheyuan courtyard, and no one had dared to disobey her for so many years.
At this moment, the deaf old lady didn't care about maintaining her kind and gentle image, and she also forgot that Director Wang was right beside her. She stared straight at Zhou Jin with those sinister eyes and spoke viciously.
"You are such a big shot, kid. I am the ancestor of Siheyuan. How dare you talk to me like that? Tell me, will you listen to me or not? Otherwise, I will knock on all the windows of your house."
Hearing the deaf old lady's arrogant words, Director Wang's face turned ugly. The government supports you because you are old, but it doesn't want you to be an ancestor.
Just when Director Wang was about to teach the deaf old lady a lesson, Zhou Jin immediately began to refute.
"Old lady, this is the new China now. Where did the ancestors come from? It seems that there is something wrong with your thinking. Are you trying to restore the old order? Director Wang is still here, and you dare to threaten me like this.
Don't forget that you are just a five-guarantee household. The state gave you this identity because you are alone and have no one to rely on in your old age. It is not for you to use it to abuse your power and oppress the people.
I think you should go to the street office more often to receive ideological education, and this feudal remnant must be completely eliminated."
"Yes, old lady, your thinking is very problematic. The state pitied you and gave you the status of a five-guarantee household to provide for your old age, but it didn't allow you to be so ignorant of right and wrong and threaten your neighbors. This is the first time, and I hope it will be the last. Otherwise, you should go to the street office for ideological education."
Director Wang also followed Zhou Jin's words and continued to teach the deaf old lady a lesson.
When the deaf old lady heard this, she thought it was bad. She was used to being the ancestor in this courtyard, and when she was suddenly contradicted by a junior, she couldn't control her anger and said things that she shouldn't have said.
Seeing that the problem could not be solved and it would only be embarrassing to stay any longer, the deaf old lady said, "I'm old, and I get tired after standing for a while. I don't want to take care of your affairs anymore." After that, she let the aunt help her back to the house.
Yi Zhonghai saw that his most powerful trump card did not work, so he knew that if he wanted to solve the problem today, he could only pay the money honestly. Then he said to Zhou Jin: "Xiao Zhou, wait a moment, we will go to raise money first." After that, he took the Jia family to the Jia family's house.
As soon as they entered the house, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu cried to Yi Zhonghai, "Uncle, our family really has no money. Can you help us to advance this money first? We will pay you back as soon as we have money in the future."
Yi Zhonghai originally wanted to calculate it based on 350 yuan, which was within his budget even if he paid it all. But now Zhou Jin asked for 800 yuan directly, and it looked like the Jia family wanted him to pay it all. It made him feel sad just thinking about it.
"Sister-in-law, eight hundred yuan is really too much. My family can't afford that much right away. I can only help you with four hundred yuan at most, based on the three hundred and fifty yuan IOU. The extra fifty yuan is my support for your family.
As for the remaining 400 yuan, you have to figure it out by yourselves. Sister-in-law, don't think about making a scene. This Zhou Jin doesn't even give the old lady face. If you make a scene, he really dares to send you to the police station.
I will go back and get the money for you now, and you can discuss it among yourselves and decide whether to pay the money or go to jail."
After saying this, Yi Zhonghai went home to get the money.
After Yi Zhonghai left, the three members of the Jia family were stunned. They didn't know what to do. They didn't want to pay money or go to jail. If possible, they wanted to continue living in Zhou Jin's house.
In the end, it was Qin Huairu who spoke first. She was a smart woman and could naturally see the current situation clearly. She had to choose between paying money and going to jail. If she went to jail, at least one of Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu would have to go to jail.
So Qin Huairu began to persuade Jia Zhang and analyze the current situation for her. In the end, Jia Zhang was afraid that she would go too far and anger Yi Zhonghai, who would stop helping her family. She had no choice but to drive Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu out of the house.
Then he came to the place where she hid the money, looked around, and after making sure that no one was peeking, he took out an iron box from behind Lao Jia's portrait, counted out four hundred yuan from it, glanced around twice, and then put the iron box back in its place.
After a while, Yi Zhonghai and the Jia family came out with money, handed it to Zhou Jin and said, "Give me a letter of apology."
Zhou Jin counted the money twice and took out four pieces of paper from his bag, two copies of the letter of understanding and two copies of the voluntary compensation letter. He asked Yi Zhonghai, Director Wang and the Jia family to sign two copies and keep them safe.
After signing, Yi Zhonghai gave up the idea of reporting Zhou Jin for extortion. He could only sigh that although this kid was young, he did things so flawlessly.
When Director Wang saw that the problem was solved, he also saw that Zhou Jin was rigorous in his work, spoke logically, and was neither humble nor arrogant, so his favor for him doubled, and he stood up and spoke to everyone.
"This matter has been resolved. You Jia family should move out of Zhou Jin's house now, and remember to clean up.
As for the three uncles, Yi Zhonghai is the one who bears the greatest responsibility in this matter and should have been removed directly. However, considering that you were trying to help your neighbors and actively handled the matter afterwards, I will keep one of your uncles this time, give you a warning, and ask you to write a 1,000-word self-criticism, which will be submitted to the street office tomorrow.
Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui, you knew about this but didn't report it. Considering that nothing serious has happened, you two should each write a 1,000-word self-criticism and hand it in to the Street Office tomorrow. Now everyone can go home and have dinner."
After Director Wang finished speaking, he walked out of the courtyard. Zhou Jin saw him and followed him.
"Auntie Wang, thank you so much for helping me solve this problem this time. It's too late now. When I finish cleaning up the house, I will invite you to come to my house and taste my cooking skills."
"Okay, I'll be there then. It's getting late, so hurry up and pack."
After watching Director Wang leave, Zhou Jin did not return to the courtyard, but went directly to the guesthouse.
