Yan Jiecheng's Leisurely Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 129 The Old Lady Passes Away

After Yan Jiecheng finished explaining how to treat the three types of friends, he looked at Yan Jiefang with a serious expression and said...

"Second brother, I've said what I needed to say. Whether you listen to it or not is up to you."

After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, he looked at Jie Kuang and said.

"Third brother, your second brother's situation is a reminder to you. Think things through more in the future, understand?"

"Got it, big brother."

After saying this, Yan Jiecheng greeted Xie Di, who was not far away, and then left the Yan family.

After Yan Jiecheng returned home, his wife Fu Linlin came to his side and asked him in confusion.

"Brother Cheng, what's wrong with you?"

Yan then explained the whole story.

After listening to Yan Jiecheng's words, Fu Linlin couldn't help but laugh.

"Brother Cheng, you really are two-faced. Didn't you say before that you wouldn't get involved in the Yan family's affairs? Why are you rushing over there today?"

Faced with his wife's teasing, Yan Jiecheng shook his head and said.

"I have no hope for my scheming parents and my two ungrateful brothers."

"But Jie Di is still quite good. That girl has been close to me since she was little and hasn't picked up any of these bad habits."

"I was thinking of instilling a correct set of values ​​in Jie Di by educating my second and third children."

After understanding Yan Jiecheng's thoughts, Fu Linlin echoed his opinion.

"Jie Di is indeed very good. Don't worry, I will keep a closer eye on her in the future."

……

As the weather got colder, Yan Jiecheng was worried about Fu Linlin, who was heavily pregnant, running back and forth every day.

So I asked Fu Linlin for leave again, so she could stay home and rest during her pregnancy.

That day, Yan Jiecheng, who had nothing to do, was chatting with his subordinates from the Public Security Section in the office.

At this moment, Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao, and He Yuzhu unexpectedly arrived at the office together.

Yan Jiecheng was very surprised to see these four people gathered together, and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Second Uncle, did the sun rise in the west today? What are you four doing all together?"

Faced with Yan Jiecheng's teasing, Liu Haizhong said with a wry smile.

"Director Yan, the deaf old lady in the backyard has passed away, so we came over to let you know."

The deaf old lady in the backyard has passed away? Yan Jiecheng glanced at Xu Damao behind him, his doubts growing.

In the past two years, Xu Damao has been doing very well at the steel rolling mill, and is now the deputy director of a certain committee.

This guy doesn't even have a good relationship with the deaf old lady, so why is he involved in this?

Xu Damao also had a gloomy face, full of displeasure.

In fact, given Xu Damao's current status, he really didn't want to get involved in the messy affairs of the courtyard house.

It's unclear whether it was Yi Zhonghai or Liu Haizhong who managed to persuade Xu Damao's father, Xu Fugui.

With Xu Fugui's persuasion, Xu Damao, despite his reluctance, had no choice but to follow along.

Yan Jiecheng looked at Liu Haizhong, hesitated for a moment, and then said.

"Second Uncle, I understand what happened. Here's what I'll do: I'll go to the courtyard house after I get off work."

Yan Jiecheng himself had little contact with the deaf old lady, and since she had moved out of the courtyard house, it was already a great favor that he went to visit her after get off work.

But Sha Zhu, who was following behind Yi Zhonghai, said indignantly.

"Yan Jiecheng, the old lady was the matriarch of the courtyard house. Now that she has passed away, you're still thinking about going to work? Do you have any conscience? Do you even deserve to be a cadre?"

Faced with Sha Zhu's angry rebuke, Yan Jiecheng wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "Oh? Ancestor? I really didn't know I had an ancestor above my head? Sha Zhu, you shouldn't have such thoughts."

After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, he immediately turned to Xu Damao with a gloomy face.

"Xu Damao, as the deputy director of a certain committee, are you just going to turn a deaf ear to such dross?"

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's expression changed, and before Xu Damao could speak, he hurriedly spoke up.

"Jiecheng, the old lady passed away, and Shazhu was feeling down. He said something wrong. We're all neighbors, so don't take it to heart."

Yan Jiecheng didn't want to argue with Sha Zhu at this time, so he planned to let the matter drop by following Yi Zhonghai's lead.

But to everyone's surprise, Sha Zhu not only didn't appreciate it, but instead arrogantly said...

"Grandpa, it's Yan Jiecheng who's heartless. I didn't say anything wrong, so there's no need for me to be so humble. I don't believe he can do anything to me."

Seeing how brave Sha Zhu was, Yan Jiecheng naturally wouldn't let it go so easily, and looked at Xu Damao and said.

"Xu Damao, this is a great opportunity to teach Sha Zhu a lesson. Don't miss it or you'll regret it!"

Logically speaking, as the deputy director of a certain committee, Xu Damao should not be addressed by his first name by Yan Jiecheng.

But Li Huaide promoted eight deputy directors in order to consolidate his position.

With so many deputy directors, their value naturally diminishes.

Yan Jiecheng's words stirred something within Xu Damao, who had been silent all along.

Although he didn't get along with Yan Jiecheng and had been taught a lesson by Yan Jiecheng before, compared to him, Sha Zhu was still more despicable.

From childhood to adulthood, his relationship with Sha Zhu was extremely bad, and almost every time a conflict arose, it ended with him getting beaten up.

It was only after he got close to Li Huaide that Sha Zhu became wary, and the situation improved.

Seeing that Xu Damao was somewhat interested, Yi Zhonghai quickly tried to persuade him.

"Da Mao, you and Sha Zhu have been friends since childhood. You can't do something so backstabbing. Besides, Sha Zhu will be invited to the factory's hospitality events, won't he?"

Yi Zhonghai's words jolted Xu Damao, who was somewhat tempted, back to reality.

Li Huaide values ​​his appetite quite a bit, and if you deal with Sha Zhu, you might offend Li Huaide.

Seeing Xu Damao back down, Yan Jiecheng sighed. It seemed he had no choice but to take action himself.

Yan Jiecheng turned his head and spoke to his men in the Public Security Section.

"Two people, take Sha Zhu to the patrol team."

Upon receiving Yan Jiecheng's order, two members of the Public Security Section immediately rushed to Sha Zhu's side and subdued him in no time.

After struggling for a few moments, Sha Zhu shouted at Yan Jiecheng.

"You little brat, I'd like to see what you can do to me..."

Yan Jiecheng chuckled twice and said.

"Silly Zhu, of course I can't do anything to you, but the factory rules and regulations won't let you off easily."

After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, he waved to his subordinates. Upon seeing this, two staff members from the Public Security Section quickly escorted Sha Zhu out of the office.

After the security personnel left, Yan Jiecheng immediately smiled and said to Liu Haizhong.

"Second Uncle, I have a lot of work to do, so I won't keep you here."

"Director Yan, you're busy, so we won't bother you any longer."

After Liu Haizhong finished speaking, he pulled the anxious-looking Yi Zhonghai out of the office.

As he walked out of the security office, Liu Haizhong swallowed hard, still shaken, and said...

"I never expected the Yan family kid to be so capable now, it scared me to death."
