"There is no need to doubt it. It is most likely her. She is the most suitable."
Yuyu curled his lips and said:
"What's appropriate is that people are easy to bully now.
If I were Aunt Yi, I would definitely not agree."
Wang Lidong poured two cups of tea and handed one cup to Yuyu.
"If I were Aunt Yi, I would definitely agree."
Wang Lidong looked at Yu Yu’s puzzled eyes and said:
"Yi Zhonghai ran away, and now there are only four women in their family.
If you still want to live a good life in the courtyard, you must agree.
If you don’t believe it, see for yourself when the conference is held.”
Wang Lidong and Yuyu arrived at the front yard five minutes early and found a relatively good location.
"Brother Dong, my sister-in-law is here too."
In the most conspicuous position of the courtyard, there is a back chair with a deaf old lady sitting on it.
All I saw was her right calf, which was tightly bound with gauze.
Shazhu and Qin Yingru, like two door gods, stood behind the deaf old lady.
Qin Yingru lowered her head from time to time and whispered to the deaf old lady.
Judging from the posture, the relationship between the two seems to be going well.
The result of the conference was indeed not what Wang Lidong expected.
The last victim was Aunt Yi.
The old man Liu Haizhong, the deaf old lady, Silly Zhu, and a few supporting people made the whole process without any accidents.
The big man in Liu Haizhong got in touch with the deaf old lady at some point.
He should be preparing to follow Yi Zhonghai's old path.
Looking at the kind-hearted deaf old lady with high-spirited bangs, and the smiling Silly Zhu and Qin Yingru, He Yuyu found this scene particularly dazzling.
"Brother Dong, doesn't my brother have trouble with Liu Haizhong? How come today...?"
Wang Lidong said:
"They don't have any deep hatred.
In the past, the relationship was not good, mostly because of Yi Zhonghai.
Now Yi Zhonghai is gone, and everyone needs each other.
Your brother is not stupid, and cooperation will be beneficial to both parties.
Just like today, things went smoothly.
Your brother and the deaf old lady achieved their goal.
If no one comes to serve the deaf old lady, your sister-in-law will have to come.
Liu Haizhong has also received corresponding benefits. Do they look like the previous combination of Yi Zhonghai and Shazhu?"
For the first time, Liu Haizhong felt the joy of being a father.
With the help of the deaf old lady and Silly Zhu, he felt a sense of control over the entire compound.
"Aunt Yi, I will leave the deaf old lady to you for the next three months.
I hope you can take good care of her.
That’s it for today’s meeting, everyone should go home early.”
Regarding Yan Fugui, Liu Haizhong would definitely ask more questions before.
But from today on, Yan Fugui is just a symbol in his eyes.
"Master, wait a minute, I have something to say."
Wang Lidong suddenly shouted to Liu Haizhong.
Liu Haizhong, who was about to go home for a drink, saw Wang Lidong standing up and said with some displeasure:
"Wang Lidong, what else do you want?"
Wang Lidong said to the people around him:
"Master, you asked Aunt Yi to take care of the deaf old lady for three months, and Aunt Yi also took over the job.
But why didn't you mention the labor fee?
Didn't you forget, or did you say that you didn't get a penny during these three months?
If he really worked for nothing, he would be even more ruthless than the wealthy landlords before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Could it be that our courtyard house has regressed back to the old society?"
Everyone who had been walking back stopped.
Hey, this isn't over yet, let's continue watching the show.
"This matter has nothing to do with Wang Lidong, right? Why did he jump out?"
"Wang Lidong can't stand it anymore. Do you remember what happened to Chen Laoshi?"
"I think so. The only person in our courtyard who dares to stand up for others is Wang Lidong.
There used to be a fool, but now..."
"Silly Zhu, are you kidding me? I'm here for Widow Qin."
Silly Zhu was unhappy and finally settled the matter, but Wang Lidong jumped out and intervened.
"Hey, hey, let me tell you, Wang Lidong, Aunt Yi doesn't even ask for any compensation.
Just stop meddling in other people’s business like a dog or a mouse.”
Wang Lidong sneered:
"Aunt Yi, do you have a chance to speak?
From the beginning to the end, you guys were talking to yourselves, and in the end, you directly made the decision for others."
Liu Haizhong patted the table:
"Wang Lidong, don't be so messy.
This matter is a joint decision of the entire compound, and it cannot be overturned by you alone."
Silly Zhu also said to Wang Lidong:
"You still need to charge labor fees to take care of your elders. Wang Lidong, you are obsessed with money.
You think everyone is like you, I think your thoughts are very dangerous."
Silly Zhu turned around and faced Aunt Yi again:
"Aunt Yi, please say a few words. This is of your own free will, right?"
Before dinner, Silly Zhu came to her, hoping that she could serve the deaf old lady like before.
Aunt Yi refused on the spot.
Unexpectedly, a hospital-wide meeting was held for this matter.
Aunt Yi is very clear about this routine.
Although I was very unwilling to do so, I wanted the whole family to continue to live a stable life in the courtyard.
She could only bow her head and admit it.
Unexpectedly, Wang Lidong, who usually doesn't talk much, would stand up for him.
Aunt Yi glanced at Wang Lidong, who nodded.
Thinking of her two granddaughters, Aunt Yi felt furious, wondering if she would be bullied to death if she didn't resist.
"Everyone knows my current situation, and I still have two granddaughters to raise.
So Zhuzi, I agreed to take care of the old lady, but my two granddaughters also need to eat."
The deaf old lady's face immediately turned colder.
I didn’t expect that taking care of her, an ancestor, would require money.
Shazhu became anxious when he heard this:
"Aunt Yi, the old lady was very kind to you before. You must not be ungrateful."
Wang Lidong smiled, this must be true.
It should be that Aunt Yi treats the deaf old lady and Silly Zhu very well.
"Silly Zhu, Aunt Yi has made it very clear that her family also needs to eat.
Unlike you, people can bring home meals from the canteen every day.
It’s only natural to work and get paid.”
Silly Zhu suddenly became angry and shook his hands. However, thinking that he could not defeat Wang Lidong, he could only hold back and did not make a move:
"Wang Lidong, go stay where it's cool. This matter is none of your business."
Wang Lidong said to everyone in the courtyard:
"Everyone commented that Aunt Yi and the deaf old lady were not relatives.
Why should I take care of the other party for three months without any labor fee?
Isn't it just because people don't have a man in the family now, so they are easy to bully?
Silly Zhu, didn't you always shout to help orphans and widowed mothers every day?
Now there are no men in Aunt Yi's family, only 4 women. Why don't you help?
It’s okay if you don’t give me a lunch box, but now you’re still thinking of bullying others?
Ask yourself, Aunt Yi was not unkind to you before."
Some people couldn't stand this, so they all said:
"Wang Lidong is right, why should I work for three months for nothing? If anyone agrees, then whoever agrees will do it."
"It's just that since Yi Zhonghai is no longer here, bullying comes to our door. Who is he?"
"I don't think Liu Haizhong is a thing. He must be retaliating. If you have the ability, go to Yi Zhonghai."
"Silly Zhu, is it because Aunt Yi's niece is not as beautiful as Widow Qin, so she bullies her like this?"
"That's right, Aunt Yi and the deaf old lady are not relatives, so why should we help in vain?"
"If Aunt Yi's niece was as beautiful as Qin Huairu, I think Silly Zhu would already be fetching water and cooking at his house."
The deaf old lady saw everyone's reaction and hurriedly said:
"Boy from the Wang family, when your father gets married, I will become the ancestor of this compound.
What are you talking about about my affairs? It's not your place to speak.
If it weren't for the inconvenience of my legs and feet, I wouldn't be able to beat you to death."
Wang Lidong sneered:
"Don't talk about your ancestors, shut up about your ancestors.
The ancestral tablets of Wang Lidong are all enshrined in the ancestral hall of my hometown.
This is a new country now, and this is not the time when old ladies like Cixi were in power.
There is no one in this compound who can be the ancestor of everyone.
Right, one uncle and two uncles?"
As soon as Liu Haizhong heard the word Cixi, he was so frightened that he almost broke out in sweat and hurriedly said:
"Yes, Lidong is right.
We are a new country and a new society, and we only have a deaf old lady in our compound, not any ancestors."
