Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Because of Xiaoshan, the welding workshop was not only the least affected workshop, but also the most advanced workshop in the steel rolling mill.

His position as workshop director within the factory has visibly risen.

After getting off work in the afternoon, Xiao Shan and Ding Qiunan returned to the courtyard.

Just then, I saw the deaf old lady strolling back through the small gate in her backyard.

Xiao Shan asked with a smile, "Grandma, why did you go out by yourself? Didn't you have an older woman with you?"

"Xiaoshan and Xiaoding are back!" The deaf old lady smiled when she saw Xiaoshan. "You're an older woman cooking, so I didn't bother him. People need to stay active!"

Xiao Shan nodded in agreement: "Grandma, you're right! If you need anything in your life, you can tell us. You can also come to us if you want to improve your life."

Because the deaf old lady hadn't done anything to annoy him, Xiaoshan maintained a basic level of respect for elderly neighbors towards her.

The deaf old woman happily said, "Okay, I understand, you're such a good child!"

Seeing Mr. and Mrs. Xiao enter the house, the deaf old lady couldn't help but sigh.

What a good kid, he just can't get along with Xiao Yi!

The deaf old lady had spoken to Yi Zhonghai about his tendency to use moral blackmail several times, but to no avail.

There's no way to change one's nature; it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's character.

Moreover, Yi Zhonghai was responsible for the elderly deaf woman's food and drink, so he couldn't say too much about it.

At this moment, He Yuzhu walked over from the middle courtyard and looked at the deaf old lady standing at the door, saying, "Grandma, why are you standing here? Come to my place. Our factory has a special canteen today, and I brought back a lot of meat."

Upon seeing He Yuzhu, the deaf old lady beamed with joy: "Alright, let's go eat at my eldest grandson's house today! I'll go tell your aunt."

"How could I trouble you? I'll just tell the old lady." He Yuzhu walked over and helped the deaf old lady toward his home.

The next day, Yang Weimin brought his profound self-criticism to the security department building and handed it to Hu Changmiao.

After carefully reading Yang Weimin's self-criticism, Hu Changmiao nodded: "Not bad, this self-criticism is very insightful! Xiao Yang, I will help you give this self-criticism to the factory leaders. If they have no problems after reading it, then you can go back to work in the welding workshop!"

"Thank you, Section Chief Hu! Thank you, Section Chief Hu!" Yang Weimin said hurriedly.

Hu Changmiao waved his hand and said, "No need for thanks, just don't hold a grudge against me for keeping you in solitary confinement for a week!"

Hearing Hu Changmiao's words, Yang Weimin wanted to smash his head in his heart, but on the surface he still pretended to be embarrassed: "How could that be? Section Chief Hu put me in solitary confinement so that I could reflect on my actions and avoid making mistakes!"

"Yes, the fact that you think this way shows that you have indeed seriously reflected on your mistakes!" Hu Changmiao nodded in satisfaction. "Solitary confinement is not the goal, but a means to correct your errors!"

What could Yang Weimin say? He could only nod and say, "That's right, that's right, Section Chief Hu is right!"

Hu Changmiao told Yang Weimin to wait in his office while he took Yang's letter of self-criticism to Li Huaide.

After reading Yang Weimin's self-criticism and inquiring about Yang Weimin's behavior over the past few days, Li Huaide said to Hu Changmiao, "Section Chief Hu, since Yang Weimin has deeply reflected on his actions, we as leaders should naturally give him a chance to reform himself!"

"Go tell Yang Weimin to go back to work in the fitter's workshop tomorrow!"

Hu Changmiao nodded and said, "Okay, Factory Manager!"

"Oh, and you should also tell him that this kind of thing can't happen again!" Li Huaide said to Hu Changmiao. "If it happens again, he won't come to work at the steel mill!"

When Yang Weimin heard that he could go back to work the next day, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although I suffered a bit this time, I managed to get through it successfully.

I must never act impulsively, no matter what happens in the future!

The next day, Yang Weimin returned to work in the workshop.

Upon seeing Yang Weimin return to work, Qin Huairu naturally congratulated him.

Yang Weimin not only thanked Qin Huairu, but also gave her twenty yuan for the meal.

Qin Huairu declined repeatedly, but Yang Weimin was too adamant, so she had no choice but to accept it in the end.

When Qin Huairu returned home in the evening, she told Jia Zhangshi about her timely help.

Even Jia Zhangshi couldn't help but sigh, although Yang Weimin's backer had fallen, he was still quite well-off.

He also praised Qin Huairu's foresight.

Just then, He Yuzhu's loud voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Liu Haizhong, just because someone calls you Team Leader Liu, do you think you're someone important? Whether I have anything in my lunchbox or not is none of your business!"

"It's not enough to act tough at the steel rolling mill, you have to come and act tough in the yard too? Have you lost your mind!"

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi both showed curious expressions as they left the house together.

Following the sound to the gate of the courtyard, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi found He Yuzhu blocked at the gate by Liu Haizhong.

He Yuzhu was carrying a cloth bag with two lunch boxes inside.

It's obvious that Liu Haizhong is blocking He Yuzhu at the gate of the courtyard!

Since becoming the head of the inspection team, Liu Haizhong is getting increasingly arrogant.

Having dealt with the factory matters to a near standstill, Liu Haizhong turned his attention to his own courtyard, wanting to show off his power.

Currently, the only people in the compound who hold official positions are himself, Xiao Shan, and He Yuzhu.

He dared not provoke Xiao Shan, so naturally he could only target He Yuzhu!

Moreover, as everyone knows, if the cook doesn't steal, the harvest won't be good.

So Liu Haizhong came up with a solution: to block the door directly.

According to Liu Haizhong's original idea, as long as He Yuzhu bowed his head and admitted his mistake, said some soft words, and let him show off his power, the matter would be over.

But to my surprise, He Yuzhu was so disrespectful and dared to challenge me.

How could Liu Haizhong tolerate this?

Liu Haizhong then pointed at He Yuzhu angrily and said, "Silly Zhu, how dare you talk like that to the head of the inspection team? I think you're getting more and more lawless! I'm going to the factory right now to have the security department arrest you."

Seeing the commotion, everyone in the courtyard gathered around.

Qin Huairu even saw several passersby craning their necks to look in their direction.

Just as Liu Haizhong said he was going to go to the factory to call the security department, Xu Damao, who was watching the commotion from the crowd, fanned the flames, saying, "Second Uncle, that Sha Zhu guy brings lunchboxes home every few days. Isn't that taking advantage of the public? He should be arrested and made to reflect on his actions!"

Seeing Xu Damao joining in the fun, Xiao Shan couldn't help but shake his head speechlessly.

Sure enough, whenever He Yuzhu got into trouble, Xu Damao would come to his aid.

He Yuzhu naturally wouldn't tolerate Xu Damao's behavior and yelled at him, "Grandson, who gives you the right to interrupt when your grandfather is speaking?"

"Silly Zhu, what did you call me?" Xu Damao immediately became agitated.

"Grandson! What's wrong with that? I'll call you grandson!" He Yuzhu said to Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong, "Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao, I'm a third-generation farm laborer, and you two keep calling me 'Silly Zhu'. I think you're the ones who should be arrested!"

"Your thinking is seriously flawed. You're arbitrarily calling your fellow workers by nicknames, which undermines the unity between workers and peasants!"

It has to be said that under Li Caijuan's influence, He Yuzhu's mind has become increasingly sharp.

If this accusation against him is truly confirmed, Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong will be severely injured, if not killed.

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao immediately shut their mouths.

Liu Haizhong looked around anxiously, hoping someone would step in and smooth things over, giving him a way out.

Unfortunately, Yi Zhonghai is no longer an old man, and Yan Bugui doesn't want to be seen as a good person who doesn't get rewarded again, as Liu Haizhong has said.

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui remained silent, the other residents in the courtyard naturally didn't jump out to speak either.

Watching the spectacle is much more interesting; trying to break up the fight might just lead to Liu Haizhong turning the tables on you.

Seeing that the situation had reached a stalemate, Xiao Shan slowly spoke up: "Second Uncle, Brother Zhu, let's talk about this in the courtyard. It'll only make us a laughing stock if we stay at the gate!"

"Yes, yes, Xiaoshan is right!" Liu Haizhong quickly chimed in upon hearing Xiaoshan speak. "He Yuzhu, let's go inside and clarify this matter!"

He Yuzhu glared at Liu Haizhong: "Fine, I'll go in then! Who's afraid of who!"

Seeing He Yuzhu and Liu Haizhong enter the courtyard, the others naturally followed.

The passersby who had been watching the spectacle from the roadside could only disperse with some regret when they realized there was no more excitement to be had.

Chapter 338, Xiao Shan Presides Over the Academy-wide Meeting! (Please Subscribe!)

Intermediate People's Court.

The college-wide meeting, which hadn't been held for a long time, was convened again.

Currently, only two elderly men, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, are sitting in the middle.

Having not yet regained his status as an old man, Yi Zhonghai could only sit among the crowd as a bystander.

Liu Haizhong first explained the purpose of the meeting, and then began to launch a verbal attack on He Yuzhu.

Unfortunately, Li Caijuan spoke first: "Second Uncle, since today's discussion concerns you and our Zhuzi, then for the sake of fairness and impartiality, we cannot let you preside over this meeting!"

"Everyone agrees, right?"

Seeing that Li Caijuan had actually mobilized the masses, Liu Haizhong's face turned somewhat ugly.

The onlookers also agreed with Li Caijuan's point and expressed their support.

"Second Uncle, Director He's wife is right. Since this meeting is about you and Director He, you really can't preside over it to avoid any appearance of impropriety!"

"That's right, that's right! Otherwise, if you were the referee, what would be the point of holding this conference!"

"I think we should let Uncle San preside over this!"

……

Seeing that the onlookers had all taken a stand against him, Liu Haizhong's face turned even uglier.

He originally wanted to show off his power in the yard, but now it seems like he's getting the short end of the stick.

But Liu Haizhong also knew that he couldn't defy public anger.

If I insist on presiding over this conference myself, I estimate that things will fall apart.

So Liu Haizhong could only look at Yan Bugui and say, "Old Yan, why don't you host today?"

"No, no, no!" Yan Bugui quickly waved his hand. "Old Liu, you and Zhuzi are both cadres at the steel rolling mill. How can I be the referee for you?"

Yan Bugui didn't want to offend either of them, so naturally he wouldn't take on the responsibility.

Seeing Yan Bugui's refusal, Liu Haizhong felt awkward.

Should we let Yi Zhonghai preside over this conference?

The moment the thought crossed his mind, Liu Haizhong immediately dismissed it.

He had finally managed to get Yi Zhonghai removed from his position as a senior figure, and now that he had asked him to host this conference, wasn't he just giving him a chance to return to that position?

After scanning the crowd of onlookers, Liu Haizhong finally fixed his gaze on Xiao Shan.

Xiao Shan is the deputy director of the welding workshop, so he is qualified to be the host for himself and He Yuzhu.

Moreover, Xiao Shan is recognized as a smart person in the courtyard. Whenever he comes up with a suggestion at a meeting, he can satisfy most people.

Although he has a good relationship with He Yuzhu, he also has a good relationship with me!

Especially since he's good friends with his unfilial son!

"Xiao Shan, why don't you preside over the meeting today!" With no better option, Liu Haizhong looked at Xiao Shan and said.

Seeing that Liu Haizhong actually asked him to be the referee, Xiao Shan smiled and said, "I have no objection! What do you think, Brother Zhu?"

"Xiaoshan, I trust you to host this conference!" He Yuzhu said without hesitation.

Yan Bugui stood up from his seat, stepped aside, and said to Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, come here, you take my place!"

Xiao Shan didn't stand on ceremony and walked over to sit in Yan Bugui's seat. He looked at Liu Haizhong and He Yuzhu and said, "Second Uncle, Brother Zhu, Third Uncle, since none of you have any objections, then I will preside over this general meeting of the entire academy!"

After a slight pause, Xiao Shan continued, "Second Uncle, Brother Zhu, as you just mentioned, it was because Second Uncle stopped Brother Zhu to check his lunchbox that the argument started, leading to what happened next!"

“That’s right!” Liu Haizhong nodded and said, “Xiaoshan, I heard that Shazhu stole things from the steel rolling mill, so I wanted to check his lunchbox! He wouldn’t let me check it, which is definitely because he has a guilty conscience!”

He Yuzhu became anxious and looked at Liu Haizhong, saying, "You're talking nonsense! Who stole anything from the steel rolling mill? Xiaoshan, Liu Haizhong keeps calling me 'Silly Zhu,' he clearly has a problem with his thinking. I think he should be put in solitary confinement like Yang Weimin did!"

Xiao Shan said slowly, "Second Uncle, do you have any evidence that Brother Zhu stole things from the canteen? You two are not only coworkers, but also old neighbors who have lived in the same courtyard for many years. You can't convict someone just because of hearsay!"

"Besides, Second Uncle, you're the head of the inspection team. How can you call your coworkers by their nicknames? Isn't that setting an example for others to make mistakes?"

Liu Haizhong said somewhat unconvinced, "Xiaoshan, of course I have evidence! Idiot, no, He Yuzhu's lunchbox definitely contains something he brought from the steel rolling mill. Just open it and you'll see!"
