Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Chapter 987 Yi Zhonghai Takes Action

Now he has made his reputation even worse.

  Qin Huairu glared at Sha Zhu fiercely. He felt that this man was now a complete failure instead of success.

After Shazhu was released from there.

He should just cut off his relationship with Shazhu directly.

  Stop putting your hopes on stupid people.

But at this time Qin Huairu also knew that his most critical issue now was to find a way to get out of this situation as soon as possible.

  Otherwise, the residents would talk more and more and report the matter to the street office, which would put him in trouble.

Just when Qin Huairu didn't know what to do, a voice came from outside

"What's going on? Why are there so many people gathered here?

Today is not a day off, you still have to work tomorrow, why are you all gathered here today?"

Seeing Yi Zhonghai walking in from outside, the residents subconsciously made way for him.

  They didn't realize that in their subconscious, they still regarded Yi Zhonghai as the uncle in the compound.

When Qin Huairu saw Yi Zhonghai coming over, her eyes suddenly lit up.

He had reached an agreement with Yi Zhonghai a while ago, and all the grudges between the two were wiped out.

  That is to say, Yi Zhonghai can now become his strong foreign aid

Thinking of this, Qin Huairu hurried over and said, "Yi Zhonghai, you came at the right time. Jia Zhang falsely accused me of being with another wild man. You are the most respected resident in our compound. Please judge for me."

Yi Zhonghai originally came here just to join in the fun.

He didn't have the time to care about Qin Huairu's affairs.

But now after hearing Qin Huairu's words, Yi Zhonghai suddenly thought of a good idea, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

That's right, he is no longer the head of the compound, but he still has great prestige in the compound, and he can fully rely on this prestige to manage the affairs of the compound.

  In the original novel, everyone thought that the second uncle in the courtyard, Liu Haizhong, was a fan of officials, but they didn't know that the real name was Yi Zhonghai.

You should know that Yi Zhonghai, as an eighth-level worker, was the highest-ranking worker in those days.

In the factory, you are second only to one person and above everyone else. The higher your position, the greater your responsibility.

Logically speaking, a master craftsman like Yi Zhonghai should work diligently in the factory.

We should find ways to improve the equipment in the factory and contribute to the country.

However, in the original book, there is no mention of Yi Zhonghai receiving any commendation from the steel mill, nor is there any mention of Yi Zhonghai producing any good things.

From this we can see that Yi Zhonghai did not focus on his work at all.

He is just wasting time in the workshop every day, so what is Yi Zhonghai planning to do?

  He put all his energy into the compound.

I am especially proud of being the eldest uncle in the courtyard.

Try every possible way to use the power in your hands to manage the residents.

  Even though this kind of management did not bring any benefit to him and seemed to be a thankless task to outsiders, Yi Zhonghai was addicted to it.

The reason why Yi Zhonghai made a mistake now was to keep his position as the manager, which is why he was easily controlled by Wang Weidong.

After coming out from there, Yi Zhonghai had two days of leisure and then felt uncomfortable all over.

He always felt empty.

  It was like he had lost something. Yi Zhonghai couldn't figure it out at first, but just now he suddenly figured it out.

That means he lost his position as manager and the right to manage the residents.

  He couldn't tolerate himself being like an ordinary resident.

After realizing this, Yi Zhonghai immediately followed his own wishes and made a choice

Yi Zhonghai coughed twice and said, "Comrade Qin Huairu's opinion is very correct, although I am not the manager now.

But am I still a resident of this compound? Can I express my own opinions?"

An old lady followed Yi Zhonghai closely.

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, he was startled, and quickly grabbed Yi Zhonghai's arm and said, "Old man, what are you doing?

I'm telling you, our family finally has some peace and quiet for a while, you must not cause trouble again."

The aunt knew very well that Wang Weidong was not a generous person.

Once Wang Weidong knew that Yi Zhonghai had intervened in the affairs of the compound again, Wang Weidong would definitely target Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai used to be the boss of the courtyard house, but he was no match for Wang Weidong.

At this time, he is now just an ordinary resident.

How could he possibly be Wang Weidong's opponent? He would be the one who would suffer.

Yi Zhonghai shook off Aunt Yi's arm and said viciously: "You old woman are really short-sighted. Don't interfere in men's affairs. I tell you, I will take care of this matter today."

The aunt was definitely unhappy when she was scolded.

But he also knew very well that Yi Zhonghai was no longer an eighth-level worker.

  But Yi Zhonghai still has a lot of connections. If he wants to live in Beijing in the future, he will need to rely on Yi Zhonghai.

So Aunt Yi could only stand aside helplessly.

Yi Zhonghai straightened his posture and strode forward to Jia Zhang's side.

He said with a stern face, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? Your family has just had a few days of peace and stability, and you are looking for trouble?

  Look at what a big fuss this has become. Do you want to let all the residents in the compound come and watch the fun?

Are you worthy of my elder brother?"

Jia Zhangshi didn't expect Yi Zhonghai to really stand up for Qin Huairu. He said stiffly, "Yi Zhonghai, what are you talking about? Qin Huairu is looking for a strange man, which is unfair to my old man. I do this so that my old man can rest in peace in the underground.

Yi Zhonghai, you and my old man were good friends. When my old man died, you promised him that you would take care of us. Now you are not helping me but Qin Huairu. Tell me, do you have a crush on Qin Huairu?"

Jia Zhang knew very well that Yi Zhonghai was completely different from Sha Zhu. Yi Zhonghai was a shrewd and calculating person.

Moreover, she has a very high status in the compound, and an old woman like her would definitely not be a match for Yi Zhonghai.

In this situation, his best option is to throw dirty water directly on Yi Zhonghai.

Sure enough, after hearing what Jia Zhang said, Yi Zhonghai was shocked and quickly denied it: "Jia Zhang, what nonsense are you talking about? Qin Huairu and I have been together for such a long time.

The two of us have always been innocent, stop talking nonsense here."

Jia Zhang snorted coldly and said, "Innocent?

What a joke! When Qin Huairu took over Jia Dongxu's job and entered the steel mill, I felt it was a bit strange that you immediately accepted Qin Huairu as your apprentice.

You have to know that Qin Huairu is a woman. She has no education, no strength, and no skills. She will definitely not be able to be promoted to a senior worker in the future.

At that time, you were an eighth-level worker in the steel rolling mill and you had the best skills.

All the people want to worship you as their master, and some even bring a lot of gifts to your house.

Some of them are highly educated and skilled, and they have a better future than Qin Huairu.

  But you chose Qin Huairu as your apprentice

Are you saying that you have no feelings for Qin Huairu?"

  Jia Zhang's words immediately aroused the approval of the residents.

"That's right, Yi Zhonghai was the best master in our steel rolling mill at that time.

I heard that someone wanted to become Yi Zhonghai's disciple and spent an extra fifty yuan, but Yi Zhonghai refused."

"Yi Zhonghai used to have very clear standards for accepting apprentices.

That is, his apprentice must be talented. Only when his apprentice is trained and becomes a talent, Yi Zhonghai, as a master, will be rewarded by the factory."

“No matter from which perspective, Yi Zhonghai should not accept Qin Huai as his apprentice.” Yi Zhonghai’s face changed drastically when he heard the residents’ discussions, and he quickly explained: “The reason for this is very simple.

That’s because Jia Dongxu was my apprentice, and after he died, I took care of your family.

That's why I accepted Qin Huairu as my apprentice.

I meant well but I didn't expect you to misunderstand me. I feel really wronged."

I have to say that Yi Zhonghai still has some strength.

His explanation made sense to the residents who were talking about it just now.

  Now shut your mouth and keep silent.

Of course, Jia Zhang's reason for dealing with Yi Zhonghai was not just the means just now. He snorted coldly and continued, "I'll let you off the hook for the reason Yi Zhonghai took in a disciple, but why did you secretly send cornmeal to Qin Huairu in the following days?

Of course, you can also say that you sent cornmeal to help our family, but every time you sent cornmeal, it was late at night when everyone was asleep.

You secretly called Qin Huairu to the cellar and gave him the corn flour. How do you explain it?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole courtyard was in an uproar.

"What? Yi Zhonghai actually secretly sent cornmeal to Qin Huairu without anyone knowing."

"Logically speaking, Yi Zhonghai was doing a good deed by giving away corn noodles, so why did he hide it from others?"

"Why else? It must be that Yi Zhonghai is trying to take advantage of Qin Huairu with ill intentions.

Yi Zhonghai is afraid of being discovered by others."

  Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly turned pale.

Because Jia Zhang had actually guessed this.

When Yi Zhonghai realized that Aunt Yi was unable to have children, he immediately took two actions.

  One action is to find a caregiver for the elderly in the compound.

Jia Dongxu is his apprentice and has a weak temper.

so.

  Yi Zhonghai chose Jia Dongxu as his caregiver

Of course, Yi Zhonghai is very clear that no one would help others with their retirement for no reason.

So Yi Zhonghai needs to control Jia Dongxu

He never taught Jia Dongxu any useful techniques in the workshop.

The idea is to let Jia Dongxu be a first-class worker for life.

Jia Dongxu couldn't get a high salary. In order to support his family, Jia Dongxu needed to rely on him.

Things turned out just as Yi Zhonghai expected.

Under Yi Zhonghai's deliberate embarrassment, Jia Dongxu quickly regarded Yi Zhonghai as his own father.

But what Yi Zhonghai did not expect was.

Not long after, Jia Dongxu died in an accident.

  Everything Yi Zhonghai did was in vain.

Of course, Yi Zhonghai could choose another person to take care of the elderly, but after trying several times, Yi Zhonghai realized that a weak and stupid person like Jia Dongxu would not be able to take care of the elderly.

Although those people agreed to worship him as their master.

  But they are unwilling to treat him like their father, let alone help him take care of him when he is old.

As for Sha Zhu in the compound, although he also meets the requirements for elderly care, Sha Zhu has too bad a temper.

Yi Zhonghai knew that he was now the eldest brother in the compound and could help Sha Zhu, so the idiot would listen to him. But once he got older, Sha Zhu would definitely not be as obedient as before.

In addition, Yi Zhonghai also embezzled a lot of money that Sha Zhu's father sent to Sha Zhu from afar.

Once Sha Zhu knew about this, not only would he not provide for Yi Zhonghai in his old age, he might even beat Yi Zhonghai up.

  After realizing this, Yi Zhonghai immediately chose the second approach.

That is to find a woman to give him another child.

You have to know that Yi Zhonghai was only in his forties at that time.

Even if he raised the child.

He is only in his fifties or sixties.

That child is totally qualified to be a caregiver for the elderly.

Because the child is related to him by blood, Yi Zhonghai does not need to be afraid that the child will not provide for his old age.

  But this also brings up a new problem, which is who should he choose to bear the child for?

You have to know that people were simple and honest in those days.

If this kind of thing is exposed.

Yi Zhonghai will be disgraced.

Yi Zhonghai was looking for someone to take care of his elderly parents, not looking to commit suicide.

So he decided to choose someone familiar

  Someone who can be controlled by him

After a period of careful screening, Yi Zhonghai finally chose Qin Huairu

Qin Huairu has several characteristics that meet Yi Zhonghai's requirements

The first one, Qin Huairu, is a very lazy person and is not motivated at work.

In this case, if Qin Huairu wants to stay in the workshop, she needs Yi Zhonghai's help.

The second woman, Qin Huairu, is very smart.

And he has a weak sense of morality.

If she is a very stupid woman.

Once he learned that Yi Zhonghai had intentions towards him.

Then that woman would most likely expose Yi Zhonghai's affairs first.

  By then, Yi Zhonghai will lose more than he gained.

But Qin Huairu is different, he is very smart.

He knew that he needed to rely on Yi Zhonghai to live a good life.

  So even if Qin Huairu didn't agree to Yi Zhonghai's request, he wouldn't betray Yi Zhonghai.

After selecting Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai took action, which led to the subsequent sending of corn noodles.

However, only Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu knew whether he succeeded or not.

Now that Jia Zhang had guessed it by accident, Yi Zhonghai's face turned as pale as a pig's liver.

The residents who were watching were not fools.

Seeing this scene, everyone took a breath of cold air.

"Oh my God, this can't be true. Yi Zhonghai is actually planning to take advantage of Qin Huairu?"

"It's hard to say. After all, everyone was having a hard time at that time. Who would be willing to give away good corn flour to others?"

"Let alone corn flour, I wouldn't even want to give him a steamed bun on a normal day. How could Yi Zhonghai be so generous?"

"Yes, yes, we have been neighbors in the compound for so many years, and our family has never taken advantage of Yi Zhonghai in any way."
