I brought a Jurassic

Chapter 170 Good guy? Bad guy? Who can tell?

He had recently come to realize that Sha Zhu and his wife treated him with indifference. Whenever they met, they would just snort and walk away without even saying hello. Especially Sha Zhu, who used to be silly and would listen to whatever he said, but now, he acted like he had met an enemy, clenching his fists tightly as if he was just about to find a reason to beat him up, and he would definitely do so for real. So Yi Zhonghai was really scared.

Li Jun came to him again today. He thought something had happened again. Could it be that he got some information from meeting He Daqing in Baoding? That made him quite nervous.

"When the son of Old Sun in the backyard died, were you the one who presided over the funeral and asked the factory for the pension afterwards?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard that it was about Old Man Sun, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately understood what Li Junlai meant. It was because Wang Luo had talked about the issue of funeral expenses with the people from the steel mill in front of everyone today. When Old Man Sun saw that something was not right, and since he didn't even have a son at the time, he must have asked Wang Luo about it.

"I took care of everything. I know what you are asking. Is it because there was no funeral subsidy for Jia Dongxu, so you only gave him a replacement position and 300 yuan? I told you clearly that this was all the money the factory gave me at the time, and I didn't take a penny of it. On the contrary, as an old man, I saw that the young people in the yard had passed away and their lives were not easy. I also put in more than 30 yuan myself. The entire funeral was paid for by me.

The union secretary in charge of funeral matters in the factory told me that the 321 yuan included funeral expenses and all pensions, plus the funeral money given by neighbors, a total of 4 yuan, not a penny less. I handed it all to the grandfather and grandson. There is a record of the accounts here, which was originally kept by Yan Bugui.

He was the only one in the whole yard who knew that I paid for the funeral expenses. He even laughed at me at the beginning, saying that maybe I had set my eyes on Sun Mingming and wanted to adopt him as my godson to take care of him in his old age. As for why no one in the yard knew about this, it was because I didn't let them tell anyone. If I told them, then if someone's young person died unexpectedly in the future, would they need me to pay for it? I only did it out of sympathy. It's like this anyway. I don't have that much money to invest.

To put it bluntly, even though I'm an eighth-level worker, I'm just a worker and I don't know some of the factory's rules and regulations. I only knew about funeral expenses when I saw Wang Luoti today. I didn't know about it before. If you don't believe me, go to the factory and ask around to see how many people know about this expense.

You were at the scene when he talked about this with Secretary Zhang, and you also saw it. Secretary Zhang himself said that it was given quietly. If Wang Luo had not been in charge of this matter and understood all this, if I had been the host, I would definitely have thought of bringing Jia Dongxu home as soon as possible. The dead are the most important, and I wouldn't even ask about this matter. As long as I didn't ask, do you think people would give it?
In the past, everyone thought I was a big shot, an eighth-level fitter, and had status, so they let me be the host. They thought people would not fool me, but unfortunately, whatever they said was the truth, and I was deceived by them.

Haha, Brother Li, to be honest, probably the worst thing I have done is that I didn't give the living expenses sent by He Daqing to Zhuzi and his sister. Now it's over, the elderly care provider is gone, and after helping in the courtyard for many years, all my face has been lost because of one thing. No one will trust me in the future. They all think I'm a selfish person and a liar.

It seems that my apprentice Jia Dongxu's funeral was not hosted by my sister-in-law Jia and her daughter-in-law, and they insisted on waiting for Wang Luo, the child, to host it. I guess they know that I took the living expenses of Zhuzi and his sister, and they are afraid that I will continue to embezzle the pension and other things.

Alas, in one’s life, one may do bad things all his life, and then suddenly do one good thing, and become a hero respected by everyone. Some people do good things all their life, and then at the end of their life, they do one bad thing, and become unforgivable villains.

But it doesn't matter, whether they are bad guys or good guys, it doesn't matter. Anyway, now everything is ruined, let's do whatever we want. After Jia Dongxu's funeral is handled, I will host a general meeting of all employees, take the initiative to resign from the position of the manager, go to the orphanage to adopt two children, take good care of them, educate them well, and live their own lives. I will never meddle in other people's affairs again, and I will not stand out!"

Yi Zhonghai smiled bitterly, as if he was relieved, and said to Li Jun.

"Some time ago, I advised you to adopt two children, but you didn't listen. Look at our Xiao Luo. I have no blood relationship with my dumb daughter, but he has provided us with all the food, clothing and other necessities. We also have cats and dogs. Which one is worse off?

But you didn't listen. Okay, it's good that you can let it go now. It's not too late. Educate them well and win their hearts. I believe it will be fine. I'll ask Yan Bugui to prove it later.

But Xiao Yi, if there is something fishy about Old Man Sun, I will report it to the higher-ups and ask you to come out as a witness so that everyone can understand the reason behind it."

After comforting him, Li Jun said to him.

"Don't worry, I will come out to testify. I don't want to have a pile of shit under my butt, otherwise I will forget about having a good life in this life!"

Yi Zhonghai agreed immediately.

Seeing this, Li Jun got up and went to Yan Bugui's house to ask for it.

At this moment, after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Auntie Yang Qiaoyun's eyes were full of tears: "Old Yi, are you really ready to hold the baby?"

Yi Zhonghai patted his wife on the back and said, "I've thought it through. I've thought it through. We won't rely on anyone anymore. You'll have to raise two children by yourself. You've suffered so much over the years!"

When the old couple talked about this sad thing, they hugged their heads and cried in the house.

Li Jun went to ask Yan Bugui, and found out that just as Yi Zhonghai said, the funeral expenses of Old Sun’s son were paid by Yi Zhonghai. After getting confirmation, he returned home.

"Master, what's going on?"

Wang Luo and Liu Yue asked quickly.

"Luckily I went there. If you two had gone, there might have been a fight. It has been confirmed that Yi Zhonghai did not take the money from the Sun family. The factory gave him that much at the time. On the contrary, Yi Zhonghai also put in some money, but he didn't say it. Yan Bugui can testify to this.

They don't understand the policy and have been deceived. It's the same as what happened to your classmate Wang Yadong's family. If you hadn't asked today, I guess Officer Zhang wouldn't have given them the funeral expenses. They're counting on you to take the lead. They know you're not easy to fool. People are so evil!"

Li Jun shook his head. "(ノ⊙ω⊙)ノ嚯, this Yi Zhonghai, I didn't expect it!"

Wang Luo and Liu Yue were also a little shocked. Did they misunderstand him before?

"You two are still young. Everyone has shortcomings and selfishness. Sometimes you will do wrong things for your own benefit, but don't suspect your neighbor of stealing your axe. As long as he does one wrong thing, you think he is an unforgivable person. You should look at the essence of the problem.

But it's good that the conflict has been avoided. Yi Zhonghai has finally come to his senses this time. He is going to adopt a child. Okay, when you go to solve the old Jia family's affairs, you can also solve the old Sun family's affairs. Yi Zhonghai will testify then!"

Li Jun knew his apprentice's ability. It was just a steel rolling mill. He could solve the problem with just a few words.

Wang Luo and Liu Yue looked at each other and thought, well, they were given another lesson by this old man.

. . . . . .

Within the time it takes to have a meal, the funeral music troupe has arrived. It must be said that Yan Bugui is quite reliable in his work.

Not long after, the group of young people who went to the cremation came back, and the meal that had been arranged long ago was ready. Sha Zhu and Xu Damao didn't hesitate to eat right away.

Wang Luo looked around and found nothing was wrong, so he called the three uncles together and went into Old Jia's house.

"Aunt, sister-in-law, Brother Dongxu is gone. You have to go and announce the death tomorrow. You must at least invite a relative from the Jia family to come over to thank the guests. Banggeng is too weak. He can't handle this!"

Jia Zhang nodded and looked at her grandson and said, "I'll tell you the address later. Please arrange everything!"

"You're welcome, it's all my job!"

Wang Luo nodded in agreement.

Yan Bugui continued, "When guests come, they must have a vegetarian meal. It can't be too shabby. We will have to visit relatives in the future!"

"There are also workers who need to be arranged!"

"Yes, maybe I will have to take over in the future, so I can take care of you at least a little bit!"

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong also added.

Jia Zhang didn't say anything, but looked at Wang Luo. She trusted Wang Luo at this moment and didn't believe anyone else's words. This afternoon, people directly asked for the 40 yuan funeral expenses. This didn't happen in the Sun family last year, at least she didn't see it.

"Aunt Zhang, we should make arrangements. The children of your Jia family will have to make a living in the future. We can't cut off the relationship with our parents. We should take care of their food. Didn't the steel mill give them food coupons? Don't worry, since you have handed it over to me as the person in charge, I will be in charge of the subsequent pensions and succession matters in the factory. Don't even think of escaping from my palm.

Let me say something to you in front of these three uncles. Don't worry about anything now. Just take care of Brother Dongxu's funeral. Don't go to the steel mill to make trouble. Your family will still have to rely on the steel mill for food in the future.

The weaker the orphans and widows are, the more guilty the factory leaders will feel. I will be able to fight for the benefits you deserve, and we will be able to take better care of your family members when they take over the factory. Do you understand, Aunt Zhang?"

It's better to be safe than sorry. If someone whispers something in Jia Zhang's ear and they believe it, something bad could happen. So it's better to take precautions in advance.

"I won't make any trouble, I'm not confused, I'll listen to you in everything, don't worry!"

Jia Zhang nodded vigorously.

"Well, three uncles, once you get out of this door, you three old men, keep those ignorant young men and wives who like to gossip in check. If anyone dares to cause trouble inside, you don't have to show up, just tell me, I won't kill them."

"Don't worry, everything is done!"
