I have to say that Yu Qiuhua is somewhat capable in being able to run rampant for so many years.
Welfare conditions are relatively poor in this era. What are the elderly people in courtyard houses most afraid of?
What I fear most is that my children will not be filial and will not take care of them in their old age. When they are unable to move, I will not feed them and will kick them out of the house.
Now Yu Qiuhua desperately grasped this point, which immediately aroused the sympathy of some elderly people in the courtyard.
They looked at each other and immediately started talking.
"Yes, He Wenhui's father died relatively early. Yu Qiuhua is both father and mother. It is not easy to drag He Wenhui into such a big family."
"Now that He Wenhui has grown up, she will be able to work and earn money after graduating from college. But now she has to sever ties with Yu Qiuhua."
"Tell me, this is simply outrageous!"
"Yes, yes. Although my son has no ability and can only work as a coolie in the lumber factory, and can only earn fifteen yuan a month, he is filial and knows that I have bad teeth. Yesterday
He even bought me a pound of cake!"
"I see, we cannot agree with He Wenhui severing relations with Yu Qiuhua. If all the young people in our compound imitate He Wenhui, what will the atmosphere in our compound become like!"
"That's right, that's right. Not only can we not let them sever their relationship, but we also have to let He Wenhui move back home. How can she, a grown-up girl, live in Sha Zhu's house?"
"That's right, that's right, He Wenhui and Sha Zhu are neither relatives nor friends, but they want to live in Sha Zhu's house. Is it ridiculous?"
....
Amid the discussion, Yu Qiuhua raised his head proudly and looked at Li Donglai with contempt.
Aren't you the master of the courtyard?
Take a look, how should you deal with the current situation.
Not only will she not sever her relationship with He Wenhui this time, she will also be able to snatch He Wenhui back and continue to work for her.
By the time He Wenhui came back, she had already thought of dozens of ways to deal with her.
He Wenhui was hiding in Silly Pillar's house, originally full of joy, but when she saw this situation, her face suddenly turned pale, and she clutched the corners of the quilt tightly with both hands, trembling.
She recalled what happened in the past. At that time, she was only a five-year-old girl. Yu Qiuhua needed to go to work and wanted her to take care of He Wenyuan and He Wentao at home, so she thought about letting He Wenhui stop going to school.
He Wenhui loved going to school the most, and she begged them hard at that time, saying that she would take good care of her younger brother and sister after going to school.
Seeing that Yu Qiuhua couldn't control him, he could only nod and agree.
From then on, He Wenhui went to school during the day, and after school, she went home non-stop to cook for her younger siblings.
You must know that she is only a five-year-old girl. If we look at future generations, she is acting like a spoiled child in the arms of her parents and is the age to have fun.
He Wenhui couldn't stand it any longer. Within a few days, he started yawning during class.
Seeing He Wenhui like this, the teacher asked He Wenhui out of concern. He Wenhui was afraid of Yu Qiuhua, so she did not dare to speak out.
The teacher was also a kind-hearted person who cared about his students. He took time out the next day to visit Yu Qiuhua's house.
Of course Yu Qiuhua did not admit that she asked a five-year-old child to do housework and take care of her younger siblings.
"Teacher Zhang, Wenhui is also my child, how can I let her work!"
"That's good, that's good." Teacher Zhang saw He Wenhui's skill in making fire and cooking, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, without saying anything more, he turned around and left the room.
Seeing Teacher Zhang's back disappearing at the entrance of the courtyard, Yu Qiuhua grabbed He Wenhui's ears, picked her up from the stove, picked up the broomstick, and gave her a hard slap on the butt.
.
"He Wenhui, you little girl, you are so brave, you dare to file a lawsuit against me!"
"Mother, mother, I don't have one."
"If you didn't, then why did the teacher come to our home?" Yu Qiuhua gritted his teeth and said, "You still dare to lie to me now, let's see if I don't beat you to death!"
As she spoke, she stopped listening to He Wenhui's excuses and beat her until her body was bruised and bruised.
To this day, He Wenhui still clearly remembers that she lay at home for two full days before going to the ground.
At that time, she was just suspected and reported, so she was beaten. Now she wants to sever ties with Yu Qiuhua. If she falls into Yu Qiuhua's hands, it will be fine.
He Wenhui couldn't help but cast her eyes on Li Donglai and murmured in a low voice: "Brother Donglai, you are the only one I can count on now."
Li Donglai sat there, not in a hurry, and waited until Yu Qiuhua finished speaking and had nothing more to say, then slowly stood up.
He walked slowly to the ladies and said coldly: "I can understand the thoughts of some old comrades, but as mentioned above, specific issues must be analyzed in detail. Respecting the old and loving the young is our fine cultural tradition.
, is our virtue, but we must also distinguish the situation clearly, some people are worthy of respect, and some people are not worthy of respect at all.”
Hearing this, the ladies were silent. Although they were unwilling to admit it, they had to admit that what Li Donglai said was reasonable.
Li Donglai continued: "You have also seen the situation of He Wenhui in Yu Qiuhua's family. She has served their family since she was a child and has never had a good life. Not long ago, Yu Qiuhua planned to marry He Wenhui to a fool. Tell me,
Is this something a mother can do?”
"If you let He Wenhui return to Yu Qiuhua's house, wouldn't it cost Yu Qiuhua's life?"
As soon as these words came out, the residents at the scene nodded one after another.
"That's right, He Wenhui is such a good girl. She is a hard-working and hard-working girl in the Yu Qiuhua family. Instead of being grateful to this daughter, Yu Qiuhua wants to marry He Wenhui to a fool."
"Where can there be such a girl in this world?"
"I think, let's vote in favor. We can't let He Wenhui go back into the pit of fire."
The eyes of the masses were sharp and they quickly exposed Yu Qiuhua's lies.
Yu Qiuhua was so angry that his teeth chattered. He wanted to refute, but couldn't find a reason, so he could only stiffen his neck and look angry.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Seeing that the time had come, Li Donglai turned around and winked at Liu Haizhong, who breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he is an official fan and loves to drink, he is not the kind of person with a bad conscience, and he cannot bear to watch He Wenhui suffer from Yu Qiuhua's torture.
Just now, he was really worried about Wen Hui. He didn't expect that Li Donglai could really turn things around.
Moreover, he was given the last opportunity to show his face.
Liu Hai Zhongzhong sighed, Dong Lai is a good comrade.
He slowly stood up and announced with a big belly: "Okay, everyone knows the situation, now you can vote. You all have soybeans in your hands, remember, you only vote soybeans if you agree to sever ties, if you don't agree
, just don’t invest, don’t make a mistake.”
"I know, you can't be wrong!"
As for the specific voting work, it was left to Yan Bugui.
Yan Bugui took out a cardboard box and a can of soybeans from under the table. He originally thought about walking directly into the crowd, but after a moment of hesitation, he turned around and walked to Li Donglai's side.
"Master, it's not that I'm stingy. It's just that you see how solid this cardboard box is. It contains twenty newspapers. If those newspapers were sold as scrap, they would only cost five cents..."
He rubbed his hands, a little impatient.
Five cents... Li Donglai pinched his eyebrows and said, "I will reimburse you later."
Yan Bugui's eyes suddenly lit up, he shook the jar in his hand, and then said: "This is only two taels of soybeans. If you buy it from the grain station, it will cost you a full dime..."
"Okay, I'll reimburse you for this dime!" Even though Li Donglai knew Yan Bugui's temperament, he was a little angry now. This old boy couldn't take advantage of him enough!
When Yan Bugui saw Li Donglai getting angry, he was too frightened to say anything more. He walked to the middle of the crowd holding the cardboard box and can.
He shouted loudly: "Okay, now the voting has officially begun. Guys, remember, if you agree to sever ties between He Wenhui and Yu Qiuhua, throw soybeans into the cardboard box. Don't make a mistake."
Before he finished speaking, Shazhu squeezed to the front, took out a soybean from the jar, threw it into the cardboard box, and said loudly: "Everyone knows about He Wenhui's situation. If anyone without conscience dares to cause trouble, don't blame me.
You're welcome, Silly Zhu."
Li Donglai grimaced: "Silly Zhu, what are you talking about? Our vote this time is fair, just and open, and adheres to the principle of voluntariness. No one is allowed to influence the residents' thoughts."
"Yes, yes..." Shazhu was scolded and nodded quickly: "Everyone votes voluntarily, vote voluntarily!"
When Yu Qiuhua heard what Sha Zhu said just now, he stood up excitedly and was about to go to the street office to complain. When he saw Li Donglai stopping Sha Zhu in time, he could only squat down.
This damn Li Donglai was so shrewd that even such a small flaw was fixed by Li Donglai in time.
Just when she was annoyed, the residents had already cast their votes. Yan Bugui walked back to the table with the jar in his arms, put the jar on the table, licked his face and said with a smile: "Master, the jar is here, let's
Start counting votes now?”
"Yes, let's start counting the votes." Li Donglai turned to look at Liu Haizhong: "I hope to find a few residents to participate in the counting of votes."
"Yes, yes, only through mass supervision can we achieve fairness and openness!"
Liu Haizhong nodded solemnly and invited a few residents with good character in the courtyard to count the soybeans in the cartons together.
Soon the number of soybeans was counted and there were twenty-six in total.
There are only twenty-seven households in the courtyard, and except for Yu Qiuhua's family, all the households voted in favor.
This is no longer an overwhelming advantage, but an absolute advantage.
What Li Donglai didn't expect was that the Jia family also voted in favor.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Donglai announced on the spot: "Now that the voting results have come out, I declare that our courtyard is in favor of He Wenhui's severing of relations with Yu Qiuhua! Early tomorrow morning, I will
Report this result to Director Wang of the sub-district office."
"Okay, it's getting late. We all have worked hard all day and have to sleep tomorrow, so let's break up."
The residents stood up and left the central courtyard in twos and threes.
Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong cleaned up the venue, while Li Donglai stood up and wandered around wanting to go home.
He Wenhui ran out of the house and blocked Li Donglai's path.
"Master, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, my life would be ruined." As He Wenhui spoke, the corners of her eyes turned red instantly, and even her voice had a hint of crying.
Li Donglai waved his hand: "Comrade Wenhui, you are too polite to say that. We, the stewards, are originally elected by the residents of the street office to serve the masses, so naturally we cannot turn a blind eye to your affairs."
"I know all this, that's what they say, but if you don't help, no one can find fault." As He Wenhui spoke, he took out a pair of woolen socks from his pocket and handed it to Li Donglai, with a smile on his face.
Looking a little shy: "Master, these are socks I knitted with wool. I don't know the size of your feet..."
Seeing the pair of bright red woolen dolls, Li Donglai frowned vaguely. He caught a glimpse of the residents around him from the corner of his eye. He pretended not to notice anything, took them and put them in his pocket.
"Comrade He Wenhui, you have now reached the critical moment of entering college. I hope you can focus all your energy on your studies."
He Wenhui nodded heavily: "Master, don't worry, I will try my best to get into college and work in your research institute after graduation."
Li Dong came to see He Wenhui and had a misunderstanding. He wanted to correct a few words, but in the end he didn't say anything.
This little girl will have her exams in a few months. If she loses her mind at this moment, she may miss her life.
Li Donglai nodded: "Comrade He Wenhui, our rolling mill laboratory is the largest laboratory in the country. The researchers we recruit are all professor-level. Even the interns are outstanding graduate students. You need to work hard enough to enter our laboratory.
inside."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Master, I will definitely try my best!" He Wenhui nodded heavily, lightly stamped her feet, turned around and ran back into the house.
Li Donglai looked at her back, sighed, and turned back to the house.
Ding Qiunan had already poured hot water, placed the basin on the ground, and asked Li Dong to wash his feet.
"Dong Lai, you really did a great thing today. He Wenhui left Yu Qiuhua, and she has made great progress in her life."
Li Donglai put his feet into the hot water and squinted his eyes comfortably.
He suddenly remembered something, took out the pair of socks from his pocket, and handed them to Ding Qiunan: "These are the socks that girl Wen Hui specially knitted for you to thank you."
Looking at the pair of well-made socks, Ding Qiunan was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand to take it, and said in surprise: "I didn't do anything, why does He Wenhui want to thank me?"
Li Donglai pointed to the foot-washing water in the basin and smiled: "Daughter-in-law, if it weren't for my wife's hard work, would this hot water have entered the enamel basin by itself?"
"So, I have really made a great contribution!" Ding Qiunan put the socks on the sofa with a smile, slowly squatted down, and continued to help Li Donglai rub his feet.
"That's right, Mom is the great hero of our family." Wei Dong heard the voice and ran out of the house, putting his little feet into the enamel basin, "Mom, I want to wash my feet too."
Weiguo also came out to join in the fun: "Me, me, and me!"
Li Donglai waved his hands at them: "You two boys, what are you causing trouble?"
Wei Dong and Wei Guo pouted, feeling that their father had taken over their mother.
Ding Qiunan rolled his eyes at Li Donglai: "You are such a big man, and you still fight with children..."
There was a burst of laughter and laughter in the house.
