Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Instantly, everyone looked at Jia Zhangshi and Xiao Shan.

Qin Huairu wished she could slap Jia Zhangshi across the face right now and shut her up.

I've never seen such a stupid person. They made a big fuss about it and everyone knows about it now.

So Qin Huairu quickly pulled Jia Zhangshi aside: "Mom, please stop talking!"

"Why can't I say it? Xiaoshan is framing my grandson for stealing chickens," Jia Zhangshi said relentlessly.

Upon hearing Jia Zhangshi's words, Qin Huairu knew she was in trouble.

So he quickly said, "Mom, don't talk nonsense, Xiaoshan didn't mean that at all!"

"Alright, Qin Huairu, stop covering for me. I heard what your mother-in-law said!" Xu Damao said as he approached.

The three old men also looked over.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xiao Shan and said, "Xiao Shan, explain yourself! Why did your sister-in-law say that you framed their family's dog for stealing chickens?"

Qin Huairu looked at Xiao Shan with pleading eyes, and Jia Zhangshi realized at this moment that she had done something stupid.

Xiao Shan said calmly, "Uncle, do I need to explain this in detail? I think you should resolve this privately!"

"Although I have some conflicts with the Jia family, I know that one should not bully the weak! Unlike some people, once someone is gone, no amount of affection or master-disciple relationship matters!"

"The two families used to be so close, like one family. Now one family earns over a hundred a month, while the other can't even afford to eat! Some people have just turned evil!"

Xiao Shan's words left the entire hospital speechless.

Many people looked at Yi Zhonghai with scrutiny.

Since Jia Dongxu's death, the Jia family's life has been getting worse day by day, which is something that everyone in the courtyard can see.

Before Jia Dongxu died, the two families frequently visited each other, with Yi Zhonghai bringing grain to the Jia family every few days.

Since Jia Dongxu passed away, such situations have become extremely rare.

Yi Zhonghai's face instantly darkened!

Xiao Shan is talking about him!

After Jia Dongxu died, his relationship with the Jia family did indeed become distant.

Although I occasionally helped them at the beginning, I basically stopped helping them later.

Qin Huairu was also a shrewd person, and she immediately understood Xiao Shan's meaning: "Xiao Shan, don't talk nonsense. Uncle Yi is a good person! He keeps his distance from our family to avoid suspicion, after all, our family consists of two widows raising three children."

Xiao Shan had only made veiled accusations against Yi Zhonghai without explicitly mentioning his name.

Although everyone present understood, they still gave Yi Zhonghai face.

Qin Huairu was making it clear that Xiao Shan was referring to Yi Zhonghai.

That's showing absolutely no mercy!

Madam Jia sighed and said, "It's true what they say, people change when they leave, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be!"

Jia Zhangshi's words directly put Yi Zhonghai in a difficult position!

He Yuzhu couldn't bear to see Yi Zhonghai being targeted, so he spoke up to help, saying, "Sister-in-law, Aunt Jia, Uncle Yi isn't the kind of person who forgets his place after someone leaves! After all, it's not good for a grown man to keep going to two widows' houses. It's not good for either of their reputations. Uncle Yi must be thinking that way."

"Xiaoshan, you've misunderstood Uncle Yi. Uncle Yi is definitely not the kind of person you're describing!"

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Yi Zhonghai felt a little gratified.

Zhu Zi was ultimately not an ungrateful person!

After a moment's hesitation, Yi Zhonghai accepted the opportunity He Yuzhu had given him and said, "It's true that I didn't consider things thoroughly enough! I was only thinking about avoiding suspicion, without considering that the Jia family is indeed facing difficulties."

Yi Zhonghai is also a master; as soon as he said this, many people's gaze towards him changed.

"This can't be blamed on the old man. He had no choice. After all, it's not a good thing for an old man to keep going to a widow's house."

"People in our compound must not gossip about Grandpa anymore!"

"Yes, yes, I believe the old man definitely had no selfish motives. A few years ago when there was a food shortage, the old man contributed the most money."

……

Seeing so many people speaking up for him, Yi Zhonghai was overjoyed.

It seems he's quite successful at being an old man.

After thinking for a moment, Yi Zhonghai said, "Speaking of which, I have to mention something. Everyone has seen how difficult things are for the Jia family. Our courtyard is a united community, so I propose that we donate some money to the Jia family to help them make ends meet."

Everyone fell silent instantly.

Asking them to say a few words of gossip is fine, but asking them to pay real money is something no one is willing to do.

At this moment, someone spoke up: "Uncle, you're Jia Dongxu's master, and you earn a lot. If you give them ten yuan a month, everything will be solved. Why would you need the help of the people in the yard? How many of you in our yard are wealthy? We're all poor guys!"

These days, nobody's a fool; a fool wouldn't have survived this long.

Seeing someone step forward, others naturally followed suit, saying, "I heard Jia Dongxu's compensation is several hundred yuan! The Jia family must have savings, but they're just reluctant to spend them. They're probably saving them for Banggeng to get married! After all, Banggeng is practically a grown man now!"

These words are tantamount to directly exposing the Jia family's true colors.

Xiao Shan had certainly broadened his horizons; these guys in the courtyard were no pushovers.

They used to say the Jia family was pitiful, but as soon as they mentioned donations, they started digging up the Jia family's past.

Faced with this situation, Qin Huairu immediately burst into tears: "It's really not what you think! My salary isn't enough to cover my expenses every month, and I have to supplement it with money every month! Over the years, Dongxu's compensation money has been almost entirely spent."

Madam Jia then unleashed her ultimate move as a necromancer: "I don't think there are any good people in this courtyard. They just know how to bully us orphans and widows! Dongxu, Lao Jia, you two come up and take a look. They're trying to force us orphans and widows to our deaths!"

“Dongxu, come up and take a look! Your dutiful master is a hypocrite. He used to say nice things, but now that you're gone, he doesn't care about the lives of your three children at all.”

Jia Zhangshi's words hit Yi Zhonghai right where it hurt.

The topic that just passed has been brought up again.

Yi Zhonghai's face, which had just recovered, darkened again: "Sister-in-law, if you keep saying this, I really won't get involved in this matter! There has to be a proper attitude to resolve things; making trouble is not the way to resolve things."

After watching the commotion for a while, Yan Bugui finally spoke up: "Old Yi, Old Liu, we're here today to resolve the issue of Da Mao's chickens being stolen, but we've strayed a bit from the topic! We can discuss the Jia family's matter in another meeting later. Things have to be resolved one by one; if we mix them all up, none of them will be resolved."

Upon hearing Yan Bugui's words, Jia Zhangshi was immediately startled, and Qin Hairu also became terrified.

Everyone turned their attention back to the Jia family and Xiao Shan.

This time, Yi Zhonghai remained silent. Xu Damao looked at Xiao Shan and asked, "Xiao Shan, what exactly happened?"

Before Xiao Shan could speak, Qin Huairu said, "Uncle, let's handle this ourselves! We don't need a hospital-wide meeting, right? Brother Da Mao!"

Qin Huairu gave Xu Damao a pitiful look, instantly captivating him completely.

Xu Damao nodded: "Alright, gentlemen, we'll handle this ourselves and save face for the child."

“It would be good if we solved it ourselves! But the root of the problem is that my sister-in-law doesn’t have enough money for the family’s monthly living expenses. If this isn’t resolved, similar things might happen again in the future. In my opinion, we should resolve this once and for all today,” Xiao Shan said slowly.

The reason Xiao Shan just brought up Bang Geng's story was mainly to push Bang Geng to recognize Yi Zhonghai as his godfather.

Only in this way can Xiaoshan's previous idea of ​​having Banggeng harm Yi Zhonghai be realized!

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xiao Shan and asked, "Xiao Shan, do you have any good ideas?"

"Xiaoshan, you're the smartest one in our department. You're so young and already a level seven worker. Give us an idea," Yan Bugui said from the side.

Upon hearing Yan Bugui's words, Liu Haizhong's expression turned ugly.

What he hates most now is when people bring up the fact that he is a level 7 worker in Xiaoshan, because it makes him seem like he is not capable!

Xiao Shan organized his thoughts for a moment, then slowly said, "This isn't difficult to handle! Bang Geng isn't young anymore; in another seven or eight years, he'll be a grown man! There are quite a few childless bachelors in our neighborhood, and some have no descendants. Why don't we find a wealthy family and have Bang Geng become their godfather, promising to take care of them in their old age?"

"With the help of godparents, the Jia family's problems are no longer problems! This way, the Jia family will be free of pressure, and there will be someone to take care of them in their old age. It's a win-win situation!"

“I remember Old Zhang from the next courtyard was quite well-off. He had no children, so he would be a good match for Banggeng to become godparents.”

Upon hearing Xiao Shan's words, everyone present kept stealing glances at Yi Zhonghai.

Isn't Yi Zhonghai the one Xiao Shan calls a childless man?

Xiao Shan's words also enlightened Yi Zhonghai: even if Dong Xu is gone, there's still Bang Geng!

By the time he needed to retire, Bang Geng had grown up.

This is what they mean by "I'll take care of you when you're young, and you'll take care of me when I'

However, Xiao Shan didn't mention his name, but instead mentioned Old Zhang next door.

So even though he was tempted, Yi Zhonghai didn't speak up immediately.

After all, he couldn't just rush to become Bang Geng's godfather!

Just now, Madam Jia said that people forget you when they leave. If he's so eager to please now, what kind of person is Yi Zhonghai?

He Yuzhu stepped forward again, and Yi Zhonghai chimed in: "If you ask me, why bother with Old Zhang from the next courtyard? Our old man in the courtyard is much better! Let Banggeng recognize him as his godfather, and he can take care of him in his old age. This would strengthen the ties between the two families, and it would make it more legitimate for the old man to help the Jia family!"

Everyone present agreed that He Yuzhu's words made sense.

"Zhu Zi is right. It's not as reliable to ask Old Zhang from the next courtyard as to ask this old man."

"Our whole neighborhood has witnessed the character of the old man. Banggeng recognized him as his godfather so that he could take care of him nearby."

"Grandpa, make a statement: are you willing to accept this guy as your godson?"

.......

Chapter 179. Xu Damao Makes an Exorbitant Demand, Jia Zhangshi Throws a Tantrum! (Please Subscribe!)

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was somewhat tempted, Xiao Shan prepared to add fuel to the fire: "Don't make things difficult for the old man. He has already done enough for our hospital! I think we should ask Old Zhang from the next courtyard about this matter. He has worked hard for our hospital for so many years, and now that he is old, he doesn't have the energy to worry about this."

Qin Huairu glanced at Xiao Shan almost imperceptibly.

He secretly became more wary of Xiao Shan.

Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to agree to the marriage proposal, Xiao Shan's words froze him in place.

Moreover, Xiao Shan's words received support from many people present.

"Xiaoshan is right, we can't trouble Grandpa with everything!"

"I think we shouldn't trouble Uncle Zhang with this. Who in our courtyard is familiar with the neighboring courtyard? Let's sound out Old Zhang! If Old Zhang is unwilling, there are Old Li and Old Liu in the east courtyard. We won't have trouble finding suitable godparents for Banggeng."

"I'm familiar with Lao Zhang, I'll go ask him after the meeting."

……

Seeing the neighbors chattering away, Jia Zhangshi spoke up: "Stop causing trouble. We don't even know any of these 'Old Zhang' or 'Old Li' people in our family. Why should we recognize them as our godfathers?"

Madam Jia wasn't stupid. Who knew what kind of character the other families with no heirs were? Yi Zhonghai was the most reliable!

We've lived together for so many years, we know each other inside and out.

Jia Zhangshi looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "In my opinion, Old Yi is quite good! I'll take charge of this matter. If Uncle Yi is willing, let the three children recognize you as their godfather! You are Dongxu's master, so we'll be even closer relatives."

Jia Zhangshi not only made Banggeng Ren Yi Zhonghai her godparent, but also brought Xiao Dang and Huaihua along.

In this way, Yi Zhonghai can take care of the food and drink for the three children!

After Jia Zhangshi said that, the crowd stopped making a fuss.

Ultimately, this is a family matter for the Jia family, and they can choose whomever they want.

Although Yi Zhonghai disliked Jia Zhangshi, he had no choice but to agree with her and say, "I watched Banggeng grow up, and I trust this child. It wouldn't be bad to have him become my godparent, so I can help the Jia family if they encounter any difficulties."

At this point, Xu Damao became unhappy and said to Yi Zhonghai, "Uncle, the matter of our chickens being stolen hasn't been resolved yet! You two families can discuss the matter of becoming godparents later. Shouldn't we resolve the matter of our chickens being stolen first?"

The people present could pretty much figure it out; the chicken was probably stolen by Bang Geng.

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand at Xu Damao and said, "Damao, don't rush! You just agreed that we'd handle this privately. Let's save face for the kid. Who hasn't been naughty when they were young?"

Since he was going to recognize Banggeng as his godfather, Yi Zhonghai naturally couldn't let Banggeng's reputation be tarnished.

However, Liu Haizhong didn't like what Yi Zhonghai said: "Old Yi, you can't be confused about this! You just became godparents to the Jia family, so you can't be too obviously biased, can you? You have to be fair and just in doing things. Even if it's resolved privately, we can't be lenient! Our courtyard hasn't lost a single needle or thread in over ten years."

Yan Bugui nodded in agreement with Liu Haizhong's words.

Yi Zhonghai was starting to lose his composure.

I just told Xu Damao not to worry, why are you two making such a big deal out of it?

Yi Zhonghai said with a dark face, "If there's nothing else, let's adjourn the meeting! We three old men can ask Xu Damao how to resolve this matter. Everyone else, you can leave now!"
