Siheyuan (traditional courtyard house): 52 years of farming, producing hundreds of millions of tons

"Jia Dongxu is a regular employee at the steel rolling mill, a first-class fitter, earning 27.5 yuan a month. It's not difficult for the mother and son to make ends meet, is it?"

Wan Ping'an smiled and asked in return.

Director Wang nodded. It's not difficult at all.

The poverty line set this year is less than five yuan. Those with an income of more than five yuan are not considered to be in difficulty, unless they have other fixed expenses.

For example, being sick.

In special circumstances, the subdistrict office will take them into consideration.

But does the Jia family have any special circumstances?

No!

“The Jia family is not in dire straits, so when dealing with them, there is no need to consider the issue of orphans and widows.”

"Furthermore, when the collision occurred, only Xu Damao from the Xu family was present. He couldn't have bullied the orphan and widow. It was just an ordinary accident."

Wan Ping'an wasn't intimidated at all.

They didn't give the Jia family any face at all.

"Well said, I'll leave it to you to handle!"

Director Wang nodded.

“Jia Zhangshi, Xu Damao, Director Wang has entrusted me to handle the conflict between the two of you.”

"The facts are clear; it was Jia Zhangshi's fault."

"Xu Damao was not injured."

“Mrs. Jia, apologize to Xu Damao and return the one yuan to him.”

Do either of you have a problem with this?

Wan Ping'an handled it safely.

"No objection, I have no objection."

Xu Damao was overjoyed. He never expected to get his one yuan back and even get Jia Zhangshi to apologize to him. It was like a windfall!

"I won't apologize. I'm the elder, and he's the younger one. How can I apologize to him?"

·· Requesting flowers ·

"He gave me the money voluntarily, why should I return it?"

Jia Zhangshi was unwilling.

Yi Zhonghai raised his right hand high; he had something to say.

"Yi Zhonghai, what are you trying to say?"

Director Wang frowned.

He dislikes Yi Zhonghai, that troublemaker!

"Director Wang, when I was an old man, I always advocated respecting and caring for the elderly."

“Jia Zhangshi is an elder, and Xu Damao is a junior. Even if Jia Zhangshi is really wrong, it is not appropriate to make her apologize to Xu Damao.”

"I think we should just forget about the apology!"

Yi Zhonghai strongly advocated respecting and caring for the elderly because he was afraid that the young people in the compound would bully him when he got old.

If we instill the concept of respecting and caring for the elderly in everyone's hearts and make everyone in the facility abide by it, then he will be respected and will not be bullied when he gets old!

Even knowing that some things are extreme, some are wrong, and some people will suffer, he still insists on pushing things forward!

"Ping An, what do you say?"

Director Wang then passed the problem on to Wan Ping'an.

He was eager to see who would win in the conflict between Wan Ping'an and Yi Zhonghai.

The kind of old man he wants must be able to use his brain to handle disputes!

Just using your fists isn't enough!

Chapter 254 Director Wang greatly admires the confrontation with Yi Zhonghai.

"Let's start with the elders and the younger generation."

"In most cases, elders and juniors are within the same family or a specific group with very close relationships."

"We live in the same courtyard, we are all neighbors, so we can't be considered a special group."

"The Jia family and the Xu family are not related, so there is no question of elders and juniors."

“It’s inappropriate to insist that Jia Zhangshi is Xu Damao’s elder, given the ‘140’ age!”

Wan Ping'an fundamentally refuted Yi Zhonghai's claims.

"Respecting and caring for the elderly is not wrong, but there should be a limit."

"Yi Zhonghai, regardless of the circumstances, right or wrong, or the merits of the matter, directly dealt with the issue by adhering to the principle of respecting the elderly. This is absolutely wrong!"

Wan Ping'an did not completely reject Yi Zhonghai's proposal to respect and care for the elderly.

Respecting and caring for the elderly is a traditional courtesy, that's true.

The mistake was that Yi Zhonghai distorted it!

It must be restored to its original state!

Director Wang nodded slightly.

"Yi Zhonghai, did you hear that?"

Director Wang questioned Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai looked very grim.

Wan Ping'an is digging up his roots.

"Director Wang, I heard you."

Yi Zhonghai was unable to refute this at the moment.

"Ping An, continue handling this."

Director Wang was very pleased.

“Mrs. Jia, you have no family ties with Xu Damao’s family. You are not his elder. At most, you are a bit older. Even if you do something wrong, you still need to apologize.”

Aren't you going to apologize?

Wan Ping'an looked at Jia Zhangshi.

"I'm not apologizing, I'm not returning the money, what can you do to me?"

Jia Zhangshi started acting like a rogue.

“Jia Zhangshi, the facts are clear. You are wrong. You are still extorting Xu Damao.”

“He reported you to the neighborhood office, and you didn’t return the money. Your behavior is enough to get you into a political education class, so you can keep three old men company.”

"Call the police, that's extortion."

"And Yi Zhonghai, the deaf old lady, you coerced Xu Damao to compensate Jia Zhangshi, aren't you also an accomplice? You should be punished as well."

Wan Ping'an certainly wouldn't let the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai off the hook.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I was just trying to be kind and uphold justice."

The deaf old lady refused to accept it.

"To uphold justice, you should persuade, not threaten."

"When you made Xu Damao pay compensation, were you advising him?"

Wan Ping'an questioned the deaf old lady.

The deaf old woman was speechless for a moment. When she demanded compensation from Xu Damao, she was indeed threatening him, not persuading him. Many people at the scene witnessed this.

She knew she couldn't deny it!

"Ouch, I'm dizzy! Zhonghai, please help me back!"

The deaf old woman covered her head.

"Grandma, are you alright?"

Yi Zhonghai rushed over and helped the deaf old lady. An older woman followed, and the three of them left the conference venue together, one on each side.

Wan Ping'an sneered.

The deaf old lady gave up and ran away!

"Director Wang, the facts are very clear: Jia Zhangshi does not accept my mediation and refuses to return the money."

“I only have the right to mediate, not the right to punish. I can only report it to you, or ask Xu Damao to call the police and let the police continue to handle it!”

Wan Pingan turned to look at Director Wang.
