Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

Chapter 74 Yi Zhonghai is criticized again

Sha Zhu was in a good mood when he saw Xu Damao donated ten yuan because of his provocation. Even though Xu Damao said he was a level ten chef, he did not get angry and returned to his seat with satisfaction.

It was Yi Zhonghai and the other two's turn to be stunned. They felt that today's donation conference would not go so smoothly, but the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. Yi Zhonghai looked at Zhou Jin and started to say those old words.

"Xiao Zhou, look, Zhuzi and Damao both donated ten yuan. They are all outstanding young people. You are the only cadre in this courtyard. Shouldn't you donate twenty or thirty yuan? After all, it is all for helping the needy residents. I believe that with your awareness, you will definitely not object."

Zhou Jin had known for a long time that this old man would cause trouble for him, and he had prepared himself mentally. It was just helping a neighbor in need, that easy.

Zhou Jin also stood up, but did not walk out of the crowd. He spoke to everyone.

"Uncle, are you acting like that again? Are you trying to force me to donate in front of the comrades from the street office?

Have you forgotten why you were fired last time? Do you need me to help you recall it?"

Zhou Jin's words scared Yi Zhonghai. Even Yi Zhonghai himself was very surprised. Why was it so difficult for him to control his emotions every time he saw Zhou Jin? He always wanted to control Zhou Jin and make him suffer losses?

But now is not the time to be stubborn. If I really admit this, then this old man who I have spent a huge amount of money to recover might be gone again.

"Xiao Zhou, don't mind it. I just made a slip of the tongue. Donation is all about voluntariness. No matter if you have money or not, you can donate as much as you want. It doesn't matter if you don't donate a penny."

Zhou Jin knew what Yi Zhonghai meant, but he didn't want to have any more arguments with Yi Zhonghai. Since you, Yi Zhonghai, are looking for trouble with me again, let's see if you have the ability to withstand my revenge.

"Okay, since the old man admits that he is old and his brain is not working well, I can't really argue with him, so let's just forget about what happened just now.

This whole hospital meeting is to help the needy residents get through this difficult time. I will definitely not object. As a young person with great ambitions for the country, I am naturally willing to help them with money and food when I have the ability and energy. "

Before Zhou Jin could continue speaking, everyone at the scene was shocked. Even the three uncles found it incredible that Zhou Jin did not oppose Yi Zhonghai.

And Yi Zhonghai was thinking that his plan had finally succeeded. Before, you, Zhou Jin, could use the fact that I donated money to the Jia family alone to get rid of my uncle, but this time, I have also added the Liu family and the Zhao family, so you still have to donate money obediently.

When Zhou Jin saw everyone's expressions, he knew they were overthinking it, so he pressed his hands down.

"Everyone please be quiet and listen to me first, then you can express your opinions.

The reduction in personal food rations this time has indeed made everyone's life more difficult. For example, in the front yard Grandpa Liu's family, the middle yard Sister Wang's family, and the back yard Grandma Zhao's family, they do not have a pillar of support and a stable income. Their children are still young and cannot earn money.

I have no objection to the difficulties these three families face in life, and I believe that you will have no objection either. I guess it would be very difficult for them to survive without your help this time.

As for the claim that the Jia family in the Central Court is having a hard time, I disagree…"

When Qin Huairu heard that Zhou Jin disagreed with her family's difficulties, she immediately lost her composure and quickly retorted.

"Zhou Jin, what do you mean by that? Everyone knows that our Jia family is living in poverty. Dongxu is the only one in our family of four with a city hukou. Now the quota has been reduced again, and Dongxu has been demoted from a first-class worker to an apprentice.

We are a family of four, and we rely on Dongxu's 18 yuan salary. With that little food, we have to support four people. This is not difficult. Whose family would be difficult?"

"Yes, the Jia family only has one person's ration, but they have to support two adults and two children. It is indeed difficult."

"What do you think Zhou Jin meant by this?"

"Is it really a deliberate revenge? The relationship between their two families is indeed quite tense."

Other people in the courtyard were also discussing the matter, but the three old men did not speak. They were probably worried that Zhou Jin had some tricks that he had not yet used.

Zhou Jin listened to these people's discussions and thought to himself, you deserve to be sucked dry by the Jia family. What happened several months ago and no one remembers it.

"You people have such good memories. You really have forgotten the pain after the wound has healed. The Jia family does have only the ration for Jia Dongxu. They don't have any food, but they are rich.

It's only been half a year. Have you all forgotten that Director Wang seized more than 1,100 yuan, a gold ring and a sewing machine from the Jia family. Excluding the donations he returned to you, there were still five or six hundred yuan left.

Who among you can come up with five or six hundred yuan at once? You are a bunch of brainless idiots. Do you still want to say that the Jia family is in difficulty?

Besides, this matter was handled by the Third Uncle himself. You should know very well how much money the Jia family has left. Why didn't you object to donating money to the Jia family this time? Did you reach some kind of deal in private?"

When Yan Bu heard Zhou Jin pointing the conflict towards himself, he immediately lost his composure and quickly jumped out to explain.

"I have no dealings with the Jia family. It's been a long time since I last kept account, so I forgot. I definitely did not collude with the Jia family."

"What Zhou Jin said is correct. At that time, the Jia family did have 500 or 600 people left."

"That's right. No one reminded me and I forgot about it."

"The Jia family usually eats with Shazhu's lunch box, and also with the help from the eldest master. I guess the five or six hundred is a lot more."

Yi Zhonghai saw that the situation was getting out of control and knew that he could not let it go on like this, so he spoke up quickly.

"Everyone, please be quiet. Among the residents who donated money this time, the Jia family was indeed the one we three uncles decided after discussing it. As you all know, there is no food on the market right now.

Even if everyone has money, they may not be able to buy food, so even if the Jia family has 500 or 600 yuan now, they still can't buy food, and the two children are now at an age where they need nutrition. "

When Zhou Jin saw Yi Zhonghai jump out, he immediately retorted bluntly.

“Uncle Yi, your three uncles’ responsibilities are only to convey government policies and mediate neighborhood conflicts. When will it be your turn to decide who is a poor household?

Besides, look at what you just said! What do you mean by "even if the Jia family has five or six hundred yuan"? At this critical moment, you are still thinking of favoring the Jia family?

Don't forget, you were removed from your position as uncle because you favored your apprentice's family and illegally organized donations.

In addition, what do you mean by saying that these 500 or 600 yuan cannot buy food? Are you trying to say that our government's currency is useless? Or are you hostile to our country's currency?

If that's the case, why not just take out the money? If you think it's useless, give it to other people in need."

In fact, after Yi Zhonghai heard Zhou Jin dig up the secrets of the Jia family, he knew that he had no intention of donating to the Jia family. He originally just wanted to struggle a little longer, but he didn't expect Zhou Jin to find a loophole in his words.

Now he has no choice but to give in. He has finally recovered his status as a great master, and he cannot let this incident ruin him again. As for the Jia family, he can just give them some benefits later.

"Okay, Xiao Zhou, regarding the Jia family, it is indeed because we three uncles were not thoughtful enough and forgot what happened half a year ago. Now it seems that the Jia family does not meet this standard...

Since the Jia family does not meet the current standards for assistance, this meeting is over and everyone is adjourned. "

Everyone was stunned when they heard Yi Zhonghai say to adjourn the meeting. The other two uncles and Zhou Jin didn't react. They just eliminated the Jia family, so why did the meeting just adjourn?

Yi Zhonghai saw that everyone was staring at him in a daze, and suddenly remembered what he had just said. He exclaimed that something was wrong. He was used to donating money to the Jia family and forgot about the other two families. So he was ready to ask for compensation.

At this time Zhou Jin reacted. Yi Zhonghai was probably used to it. He subconsciously thought that only the Jia family donated money. Now that the Jia family did not meet the standards, the meeting would be adjourned.

This is a good opportunity to suppress Yi Zhonghai. Zhou Jin will not let it go and speaks immediately.

"Uncle, you are really just the uncle of the Jia family. How come the Jia family doesn't meet the support criteria, but you don't care about the other two families? I really don't know how you managed to regain your position as the uncle.

The people who helped you were really lacking in virtue, allowing a selfish and vain person like you to return to this position again. You see, when there were only the second and third uncles in the compound, the compound was fine.

But look, this is the first time you have convened a general meeting of the entire courtyard since you regained your status as an uncle, and you are doing it under the banner of helping the neighbors in need in the courtyard. I have no objection, do I?

But look at what you are doing. It seems that you prepared this conference in the first place just to donate money to your apprentice Jia Dongxu's family. As for the other two families, they are just for keeping up.

Uncle, I have to praise you for being able to come up with such a method. You really know how to use your brain and find a solution.

Speaking of this, a question suddenly occurred to me. The selection of these needy families was decided by you three uncles, and everyone's donations were also kept by you three uncles. Tell me, you are both athletes and referees.

I'm very curious about how you will distribute this donation. If I'm not mistaken, the biggest share will definitely go to the Jia family, and the other two families will just get a little bit of the money. Maybe you three uncles can even make some money from it."

When Liu Haizhong heard Zhou Jin praising him, he immediately felt happy, but the more he listened, the more he felt uneasy. He never expected that Zhou Jin would know all this.

At this time, Liu Haizhong's forehead had started to sweat. Of course, Liu Haizhong was not the only one with sweat on his forehead. Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui were not much better.

Especially Yi Zhonghai, he was the one who organized all these things. If it were to be exposed, not only would he lose his position as a big boss, he might also go straight to jail.

Therefore, Yi Zhonghai must not let Zhou Jin continue talking and must bring the topic back to the donation.

"Xiao Zhou, regarding the question you just raised, I admit that I did not do my job well and did not investigate the matter carefully, which has let down the government and everyone's trust in me.

I really didn't control my emotions just now, and I bow to you and apologize."

After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he stood up, walked to the eight-immortals table, bowed deeply to everyone, and paused for several seconds.

Then, Yi Zhonghai stood up, looked at the crowd and continued speaking.

"Since the Jia family does not meet the criteria for a needy family, we will only donate to the Liu family in the front yard and the Zhao family in the back yard during this donation meeting."

Before Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Jia Dongxu became unhappy. This conference was originally held for the Jia family's donations, but now he was simply thrown out. How could that be possible? Wouldn't that just leave his family to starve to death?

"Stop, Master, why do you want to exclude my family? I don't have any money at home now. If you don't believe me, you can go in and search. It just so happens that the comrades from the street office are here too, so you can let them go in and search.

My family is really out of money. If our family hadn’t received the donation, we wouldn’t have survived.”

Yi Zhonghai did not expect Jia Dongxu to do this, but if the Jia family really had no money, then Zhou Jin's previous remarks against him would be self-defeating.

And looking at Jia Dongxu's expression, he didn't seem to be telling lies at all. Anyway, the comrades from the street office were there, so he might as well search them. This would also allow him to save his face and give Zhou Jin a slap in the face at the same time.

But when Yi Zhonghai was still fantasizing, Zhou Jin suddenly spoke.

"Jia Dongxu, you said your family has no money now, right?"

Jia Dongxu didn't know what Zhou Jin meant, but he answered truthfully.

"Yes, we can hardly make ends meet."

"If I remember correctly, the remaining money from your family was given directly to you, is that correct?"

"Yes, so what?"

"Hey, what's wrong? Your Jia family has spent five or six hundred yuan in half a year, and now you have the nerve to ask everyone to donate money to you. What's wrong? How can you be so shameless?

You Jia family eat the best, drink the best, wear the best, but now that you have spent all your money, you come to your master and ask him to help you suck our blood. Aren’t you really afraid of a short life?”

At this time, all the fantasies in Yi Zhonghai's heart were shattered. This Jia Dongxu really was more of a hindrance than a help.

"Okay, Dongxu, get off. Your family's situation is your own fault. You don't meet our assistance criteria, so we won't organize donations for you."

Jia Dongxu had no idea what to do at the moment, and even Qin Huairu didn't know what to do. They could only retreat back to their seats and sit down. Now they could only wait until the meeting was over before asking Yi Zhonghai for help.

But Zhou Jin will not let Yi Zhonghai go so easily. Since you want everyone to help you support the Jia family, then I will tie you to the Jia family completely.
