Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 155 Hoarseness
"Okay, don't help Yi Zhonghai hide it anymore. Everyone has seen it clearly."

Liu Haizhong interrupted Aunt Yi impatiently. He was frightened by Jia Zhang before, and then it was all Zhou Weimin who was talking, which made him, as a rich man, feel embarrassed.

He walked to the middle of the yard with his hands behind his back, looked at Yi Zhonghai with scrutiny and said, "Yi Zhonghai, do you have anything to explain about what Wei Min said? Almost every household in the yard has come. If you can explain it, explain it now. If you can't explain it clearly, I will ask someone to call the security department over."

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang said almost at the same time: "Don't call the security department!"

This made everyone stunned. Yi Zhonghai was fine, but what was Jia Zhang doing?

"We can't let this matter out. If the security department comes, my Huairu's reputation will be ruined. Liu Haizhong, do you really have to force our family to death?"

Although Jia Zhang wanted Yi Zhonghai to suffer, she didn't want him to encounter such a big disaster.

She knew very well that without Yi Zhonghai's help, their family would have a hard time.

Qin Huairu just told her about what happened in the factory today. If something happened to Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu was afraid that she would not be able to stay in the workshop.

The quantity of work in the workshop and that of odd jobs in the factory are different. What will her lovely grandson do if the quantity is less!
"Old Liu, matters in the yard should be resolved in the yard. You can punish me however you want, but don't bring it to the factory. If this matter gets out of hand, our yard will lose the title of Advanced Worker this year. Don't you want everyone to have a good New Year?"

Yi Zhonghai looked directly at Liu Haizhong, his voice already becoming a little hoarse.

"You are the one who caused the loss of Xianjin. It has nothing to do with me, Yi Zhonghai, stop making trouble!"

Liu Haizhong turned his head away uncomfortably, and when he saw the looks people in the yard were giving him, he couldn't help feeling guilty.

"Master Liu is right. This is a matter of principle and also a matter of ideological awareness. Yi Zhonghai, you must pay the price for doing something wrong. Don't use us as a shield!"

Zhou Weimin echoed righteously, and then continued: "You can hide what you did for a while, but not forever. We called the security department over now because we have a high level of awareness and will not shield people with problems. If people find out later and the street office sends people, it will be a cover-up, and all of us will have to be taken out for education, and I guess all the uncles in the courtyard will have to be replaced!"

"Wei Min is right. When has anything in our factory been kept secret? It would always be spread everywhere within a few days after the factory meeting. It's just like what happened with Sha Zhu. At that time, they blamed me. I had only been in the countryside for two days, but the news had spread everywhere in the factory!"

Xu Damao crossed his arms over his chest, looked around at everyone in the courtyard with a mocking look, and continued, "We took the initiative to find out about this matter with the Security Department, and at most we will lose this year's advanced award. If the Street Office knew about it and investigated it, it would not be as simple as this year. If the Street Office knew about our courtyard's cover-up, they would keep a close eye on our courtyard. Which courtyard would not be free of problems?"

Xu Damao's words destroyed the hope in the hearts of everyone in the courtyard, and made those who wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter in order to enter the courtyard stand on their side.

After all, everyone knows how to elect those who have not been advanced in the past year and those who will never be advanced in the future. If someone from the street office really comes to ask about the situation, they don’t have the courage to tell lies.

This matter may seem insignificant, but its nature is indeed bad. It is not a trivial matter in this era, not to mention that Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu are master and apprentice's wife, and Yi Zhonghai is also an eighth-level fitter in the factory.

"Old Liu, you make a decision. The problems that Weimin and Damao mentioned do exist. You are the boss now. No one will object to what you say."

Seeing that things were almost done, Yan Bugui stepped forward and gave Liu Haizhong a word.

He did not participate in the decision-making of this matter, and he had nothing to do with how Yi Zhonghai was punished in the future. Even if Yi Zhonghai wanted to retaliate in the future, he could not find their family. Liu Haizhong didn't care about what happened next. He was so happy that he could step on Yi Zhonghai. Following Yan Bugui's words, he coughed twice and said to everyone: "Ahem, this is what happened. Everyone saw it. Yi Zhonghai called Qin Huairu to the yard in the middle of the night. He had a problem with his thinking. As neighbors, we can't watch him continue to make mistakes. The nature of the matter is bad, and the yard can no longer handle it. Let's call the security department to deal with it. Everyone has no objection, right?"

No one said anything. Many people hesitated, but no one stood up to refute.

Liu Haizhong didn't care about that and yelled at Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu who were standing at the backyard door: "What are you doing standing there? Go to the factory and call the security department over!"

"Dad, we'll go now and we'll definitely bring the security department with us."

Liu Guangtian quickly agreed, ran out of the yard with Liu Guangfu and went straight to the steel rolling mill.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai's body swayed twice, his face looked dejected, he knew that he was finished now.

Seeing that he was in a bad state, Aunt Yi quickly supported him and opened her mouth but could not say any words of comfort.

Being able to take care of Yi Zhonghai now is already her biggest compromise.

"Caifeng, I don't have that kind of thought."

"Well, let's talk about it when we get home."

After this exchange, there was another period of silence between the two.

At this time, Xu Damao had already walked to Zhou Weimin's side, looking at the two people standing in the middle of the yard with a happy face.

"Wei Min, why don't you see the guards coming? It's a pity that you missed such a good show."

"There's nothing good about this kind of filthy thing. You'll be happier if you listen to other people's opinions tomorrow instead of freezing here like us."

Zhou Weimin replied indifferently and turned his gaze to Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi.

These two people suddenly stopped talking after they started targeting Yi Zhonghai, and no one knew when they stood at the side where no one was around.

He Daqing looked at Yi Zhonghai and whispered to Zhou Weimin without turning his head, "Yi Zhonghai will not get any good results this time. Qin Huairu will not speak for him when he goes to the security department."

The sound was not loud, and even Xu Damao, who was standing on the other side of Zhou Weimin, did not hear it clearly. He glanced at He Daqing and thought he was hallucinating.

Zhou Weimin nodded without comment, and then said, "Uncle He, it will take a while for the security department to come over, why don't you go sit in your room for a while?"

"Forget about going into the house. I'll go get two stools."
