Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 15: Meeting Director Wang

The deaf old lady was very satisfied with Yi Zhonghai's statement, but this was not enough. She had to make Yi Zhonghai promise to take care of her in her old age before he could feel at ease.

"Zhong Hai, I am very satisfied that you have this intention. There are too many evil spirits in our courtyard, and none of them are easy to mess with. Although they didn't say it, I know that in their hearts they hope that I will die sooner so that my family will be wiped out."

This sentence touched Yi Zhonghai's reverse scale. He had nothing else to worry about in his life except being eaten up by others.

"This is a new society. They don't dare. I will never let them succeed as long as I am here."

The deaf old lady's eyes were filled with tears, and she said excitedly: "I know you will protect me, but what about you?"

This sentence made Yi Zhonghai's anger vent. He could indeed ensure that the deaf old lady would not be destitute, but what about him?
Even if he has a child now, by the time the child is able to take care of himself, he will be old. At that time, it is still unknown whether he can survive.

By then, won’t we be completely wiped out by others?

Thinking of this, tears welled up in Yi Zhonghai's eyes, but he forced them down.

The deaf old lady had been observing Yi Zhonghai's expression. When she saw this scene, she smiled in her heart, knowing that Yi Zhonghai had been fooled.

"Zhong Hai, don't blame me for being nosy. Look at He Daqing and Xu Fugui. They are about your age and their children are almost adults. The children they raise are not easy to deal with either.

If you want to survive in this hospital, you must think carefully about what to do. "

The Great Wall was not built in a day.

The deaf old lady knew not to be too anxious, so today's topic ended here.

Yi Zhonghai came out of the deaf old lady's house in a daze. He heard Liu Haizhong scolding his son, Xu Damao trying to get money from Xu Fugui, and He Yushui acting coquettishly to He Daqing.

In the middle courtyard, he also saw the scene of Jia Dongxu serving Jia Zhangshi.

All of this made him feel a little sad. He didn't understand why these people lived better than him when they were obviously not as good as him.

"Old Yi, what's wrong with you?" Miao Cuilan asked with concern when she saw that Yi Zhonghai looked unwell.

Yi Zhonghai looked at his wife's face, hesitant to speak. He didn't know what to say to Miao Cuilan, nor how to say it.

"Nothing, there are just some things I can't figure out. You cook!"

Miao Cuilan felt guilty when facing Yi Zhonghai and had no confidence to speak. Seeing that he didn't say anything, she didn't say much.

Jia Zhang saw Yi Zhonghai's look and immediately knew that Yi Zhonghai was worried about something.

She called Jia Dongxu over and gave him instructions in person.

Jia Dongxu hesitated for a moment and walked towards Yi Zhonghai: "Master Yi, what's wrong with you? Did you encounter any problems? If you have any problems, tell me. Although I'm a little stupid, I can still run errands for you."

Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a moment and asked, "Dongxu, why do you respect me so much?"

Jia Dongxu was also stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer for a moment, mainly because Jia Zhang didn't teach him.

But he was not stupid, so he knew to say something nice to Yi Zhonghai: "Master Yi, look at what you said. You are a capable person, so of course I have to respect you and learn from you."

As if by some strange coincidence, Jia Dongxu said another famous quote from Yi Zhonghai: "We are neighbors living in the same courtyard. Isn't it normal for us to help each other? If I don't help you when you are in trouble today, who can I count on to help me when I am in trouble in the future?"

Yi Zhonghai's mind suddenly lit up, and he had the idea of ​​training Jia Dongxu. However, he was a gloomy person, who wanted to control everything in his hands, and would not speak out so easily.

If Jia Dongxu wants to be trained by him, he must pass his test.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai remained silent, Jia Dongxu didn't know whether what he said just now was right or wrong, and stood there awkwardly. Wu Bangming had already started to let Sha Zhu cook. Sha Zhu also cherished this opportunity.

Sha Zhu was not opposed to being an apprentice, but he did not want to waste all his time on being an apprentice. When Wu Bangming asked him to cook, he showed off a few of his skills and appropriately demonstrated his talent.

Sure enough, when Wu Bangming saw Sha Zhu cooking Sichuan cuisine for the first time, his skills were quite good. He said Sha Zhu was born to cook Sichuan cuisine.

The owner of Emei Hotel was shocked. After seeing Sha Zhu's cooking skills, he praised Sha Zhu highly.

With good performance, you can get more freedom. Sha Zhu took the opportunity to ask for leave to go out and do something.

Wu Bangming agreed immediately and asked him to take a dish he had cooked back for He Daqing to taste.

After leaving Emei Hotel, Sha Zhu did not go anywhere else, but went to the newly built nursing home on the street.

There were two purposes for going here. One was to meet Wang Huijun, the future director of the subdistrict office. At that time, Director Wang was still a section-level clerk, following the military control committee to get familiar with the situation on the streets. She would not become the director of the subdistrict office until 58.

Although Sha Zhu had always been schemed by Yi Zhonghai to help the Jia family, before 58, the main force behind the scheme was the deaf old lady. At this time, most of Sha Zhu's things were presented to the deaf old lady.

In 58, Banggeng was 7 years old, Qin Huairu was pregnant with Xiaodang, and Jia Dongxu learned to gamble from others. Life of the Jia family suddenly became difficult.

Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand the Jia family's huge blood-sucking ability, so he pushed Sha Zhu out to take the blame.

Sha Zhu felt that before 58, Yi Zhonghai would plot against him, but not so severely. He got to know Director Wang in advance in order to prepare for the future.

Another reason is reputation. The reason why Yi Zhonghai has the final say in Siheyuan and why no one dares to resist is not complicated. The most important reason is reputation.

What about helping needy families, supporting poor college students, taking care of the elderly, etc. No matter whether he did it or not, everyone has publicized it anyway.

People in this era are still very simple and honest, and there is no such nitpicking person who insists on getting to the bottom of things. Everyone just thinks that I don’t know because I am ignorant and don’t suspect that Yi Zhonghai is making false propaganda.

If you want to fight against Yi Zhonghai, you must have a good reputation. Otherwise, it is easy to fall into a passive position. It is not always possible to explain it clearly to others.

In this era, there are still many young people like that. Needless to say, Yi Zhonghai can fool many people by just talking about filial piety to elders.

Didn’t Yi Zhonghai want him to be filial to his elders?

He would rather be filial to these unknown elders than to them. These people can become elders when they are old, but when they are old, they are just old beasts.

A nursing home on the street was being prepared, with many workers working inside. Sha Zhu stretched his head to look inside.

Suddenly a voice came from behind: "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

There was a sense of defensiveness in his voice, perhaps he thought he was a bad guy.

Sha Zhu quickly turned his head and recognized the person in front of him. It was none other than Director Wang whom he was looking for.

"Comrade, don't get me wrong. I heard from others that a nursing home is going to be built here. I'm asking on behalf of an old lady in our nursing home."

Sha Zhu's face looked a little anxious. But with the help of the spiritual spring water, it changed a little, at least it looked like a child, not the middle-aged man it once looked like.

When Director Wang saw Sha Zhu's face, he relaxed a little.

"Where is your home and what is your relationship with that old lady?"
