Courtyard House: He Daqing Forces Qin Huairu into Marrying at the Beginning

"If we allow outsiders into the hospital, what should we do if any conflicts arise?"

He Daqing thought Yi Zhonghai's suggestion was feasible, but he had a better idea.

Although a few cents a month is nothing, He Daqing, who had been disgusted by the deaf old woman, did not want to spend a single penny on her.

"Moreover, there is another very important issue to consider."

The deaf elderly woman is paralyzed; it's uncertain how much longer her body can hold on.

What if it doesn't work out someday?

What should be done about her house?

That's her private property; if no one inherits it, it will belong to the public.

He Daqing seized the opportunity to throw out a huge ball of bait.

Trouble often comes with opportunity.

The neighbors in the courtyard were not interested in taking care of the deaf old woman, but they coveted her house.

The deaf old lady used to be quite healthy, and no one knew how many more years she could live.

That's why I didn't rush up to her.

They were afraid of being held responsible and that it would be a losing proposition.

Now, the deaf old lady is seriously ill, and it seems that her peaceful death is just around the corner.

Her house has once again attracted attention.

"Sir, what do you mean?"

Yan Bugui asked tentatively.

He had thought about the housing issue long ago.

However, the deaf old woman was still alive, and it would seem too greedy to ask her directly, so he didn't speak rashly.

Now that He Daqing had spoken frankly, Yan Bugui was immediately tempted.

Whenever there's something good happening in the courtyard, Yan Bugui is always included.

The heads of the households present also realized what was happening and turned to look at He Daqing.

Each person had a different expression, but most of them looked expectant.

In recent years, with the development of Beijing, housing has become scarce and housing prices have continued to rise.

Good houses are hard to find; even with money, you can't necessarily buy your ideal place to live.

The deaf old lady's house is in a great location and has a large area; it's worth a lot of money.

"Don't let the good stuff go to outsiders."

We hired someone from outside the facility to take care of the deaf elderly woman.

What if the old lady feels grateful and passes the house on to someone else?

It's understandable that we feel bad that so many of our neighbors have spent so much money and effort.

The deaf old lady only has one house, which isn't enough for the twenty-odd households in our compound.

I have a suggestion.

Why don't we pick someone from our compound to take on the task of caring for the deaf old lady?

Other neighbors don't have to pay either.

After the old lady passes away, the person who took care of her will inherit the property.

What do you think? "

He Daqing had absolutely no interest in the deaf old woman's house.

If the neighbors in the courtyard want it, let them fight over it.

"My family has a special connection with the old lady."

Moreover, my Ruihua has free time on weekdays.

Leave this to our family.

Yan Bugui stood up and volunteered.

With a chance to make money right in front of him, he wasn't about to let it slip by.

The deaf old woman is seriously ill and will pass away in a few months to a year.

Now is the perfect time to enter the market.

Moreover, even if the deaf old woman is tough and can endure it for a while, can't Yan Bugui come up with a good idea to relieve her suffering?

Since she was seriously ill, the deaf old woman was practically dead in the eyes of her neighbors.

His passing a few months later was as expected.

"No, Yan Bugui, you had a conflict with the old lady just a few days ago."

Who knows if you'll end up harming the old lady?

Let my family come instead.

Liu Haizhong immediately stood up to refute him.

Liu Haizhong had coveted the Jia family's house before.

Now that he sees there are missing rooms in the yard, he's not going to let it go.

"Liu Haizhong, you can't even take care of your son, how can you take care of an old lady?"

I bet you'll kill the old lady in a few days.

Yan Bugui did not back down at all and confronted him head-on.

With such a huge benefit right in front of him, he would never give it up easily.

Chapter 142 Take the lead

Human nature is always inclined to seek advantage and avoid harm.

When the deaf old lady was still a nuisance, the neighbors avoided her like the plague.

Now that there is a great profit to be made, everyone's attitude has reversed, and they have become very eager to please.

Many neighbors argued fiercely over who would take on the task of caring for the deaf elderly woman.

They all looked like filial sons and grandsons, but it's unclear which one of them truly cared about the deaf old woman's life or death.

"That's enough, stop arguing."

The argument escalated, but He Daqing intervened in time to stop it.

"What I just said was just a contingency plan."

The specific arrangements for who will care for the deaf elderly woman will need to be discussed at a hospital-wide meeting.

This is a matter of great importance, and it cannot be decided in just a few words.

Moreover, taking care of deaf elderly women is more complicated than imagined.

There are still many joints that need to be carefully considered.

He Daqing summoned the heads of each household to explain the situation.

The specific choice needs to be made after calming down and carefully considering the matter.

"It's getting late, and we've covered most of the details."

Let's call it a day.

Before anyone could react, He Daqing stood up, took a stool, and left.

Seeing that He Daqing left without hesitation, the others' newly aroused greed subsided considerably, and reason returned to them.

They all dispersed, each calculating their gains and losses as they walked.

……

Back inside, Xu Damao didn't even bother to take off his shoes; his body went limp and he collapsed onto the bed.

Since being sacrificed by Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao's life has been truly difficult.

Needless to say, Liu Haizhong, who lived in the backyard, would occasionally cause him trouble.

Inside the steel rolling mill workshop, he also suffered a lot of trouble at the hands of Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai was a skilled forger and held a prominent position in the workshop. He could make Xu Damao suffer greatly simply by showing his dislike for him.

What's worse is that Xu Damao had previously offended the workers in the same workshop.

They were already disliked in the workshop.

In addition, there was Yi Zhonghai's manipulation.

Xu Damao was always assigned tiring tasks, and if he failed to complete them, he would be severely criticized by his team leader.

Xu Damao was extremely dissatisfied with the scathing rebuke, but dared not retaliate and could only keep it to himself.

I'm afraid of giving them leverage and losing my job.

Many people clearly remember the factory-wide reprimand that was previously issued.

Xu Damao could really be kicked out if he causes trouble again.

Steel rolling mills need workers who can contribute to society, not troublemakers who slack off and create conflict.

Under the dual pressure from both the factory and the research institute, Xu Damao was on the verge of going crazy.

"No, this can't go on forever."

Xu Damao writhed his limp body, casually pulled off his shoes that were in the way, rolled over and lay on his back on the bed, panting heavily.
