"How can it be so easy! No!"
Xu Damao had long suspected that this Widow Qin had something going on with He Yuzhu, so he spoke up for Shazhu.
"I think we'll just pay 5 yuan. It's getting dark. There's still one more thing we haven't discussed.”Second Uncle gave another bad idea.
"Five yuan? In the market, a chicken was only worth a little more than 1 yuan. 5 yuan was too much.”Qin Huiru immediately panicked as she might have to fork out the money herself.
"Alright, we'll talk about the money later. Let's discuss whether everyone is willing to let those three children stay in our courtyard.”The first uncle calculated that Director Wang should be arriving soon, so he had to strike while the iron was hot to get this done.
"No! These three children used to beg on the streets. She had never heard of anyone bringing beggars into the courtyard.”Jia Zhangshi was the first to speak.
"Grandma Awesome is right. There's no precedent for this. Our courtyard is a civilized courtyard house. We have rules. Even if we rent a house, we have to look at the character of the tenant.”
Second Uncle thought that there were no rules. His children were all well-behaved. If anyone was unruly, he would give them a slap.
"Civilized courtyard house? Where did civilization come from, Second Uncle?”
"Jia Zhang-shi, don't keep calling her a beggar. Did she eat a mouthful of your rice? Speaking of begging, didn't you go to my house and snatch a plate of meat two days ago?”
When He Yuzhu heard about civilized courtyards, he felt that it was ironic. It was clearly a courtyard filled with birds!
"Chief Wang is here! Chief Wang, please sit here. We invited you here today to seek your opinion. He Yuzhu from our courtyard brought back three little beggars from the streets. This has made the people of our courtyard house very worried.”
First Uncle had invited Director Wang over to put pressure on the old lady. Even if the old lady wanted to stand up for him, she would not be able to do so.
"I'd better listen to everyone's opinions first.”Chief Wang was quite meticulous in his work. The matter in the courtyard house was not a big deal. If it was not handled well, it was easy for conflicts to occur.
"Chief Wang said that he wants to hear everyone's opinions. Everyone, hurry up and speak freely.”When Second Uncle saw the leader, he also stood up and made a high-profile move.
"Zhu Zi, even if you want to bring the child back, you have to get everyone's permission before you bring him back. After all, this courtyard house belongs to everyone.”
Third Aunt was afraid that these children would come to kowtow and ask for red packets from her. She couldn't help but interject.
"Yeah, Silly Zhu, at least inform everyone.”
"Yes, if you go to the Siheyuan every day to pick up the children, what will our Siheyuan become? It has become a shelter!"
Everyone was talking one after another. As expected, they did not want to accept it.
"Why didn't anyone invite the old lady? How could they not invite the old lady for this general meeting?”Seeing that the situation was not right, He Yuzhu could only use the old lady to deal with them.
"Go and invite the old lady over!" The First Uncle had a stronger backer. As long as Chief Wang said so, it would be useless even if the old lady came.
A middle-aged woman, Cui Lian, immediately went to invite the old lady when she heard this.
Not long after, Xu Qiubai supported the deaf old lady and walked over with the three children.
Xu Qiubai was still wearing He Yuzhu's big coat, but she looked much better. Her short hair had just been cut, and she looked a little valiant.
It was the first time for some people in the courtyard, including Xu Damao, to see Xu Qiubai. They didn't expect this opera singer to be so beautiful. No wonder Silly Zhu wanted to bring her home at all costs.
Xu Damao swallowed his saliva. This idiot was a toad. Was he worthy of a white swan like her? He must have taken advantage of her and tricked her back.
"Chief Wang, there's one more thing today. This idiot stole one of my chickens. It's still stewing in the pot!”Xu Damao thought to himself, he had to ruin Silly Zhu's reputation and expose Silly Zhu's ugly face in front of this beauty.
"Stealing chickens? Is that true, Grandpa Yi?" Chief Wang asked the old man.
"There's such a thing. He Yuzhu is the cook of our rolling mill. Perhaps he stewed Xu Damao's chicken to feed these three children.”The first uncle connected stealing chickens with the three children.
Xu Qiubai was touched when she heard that He Yuzhu had gone to steal chickens for the sake of the three children. She looked at He Yuzhu, who was sitting in the middle of the crowd. It was as if everyone in the courtyard was criticizing him.
Mr. He, what did I do to deserve you doing so much for me?
"Nonsense! I know Zhu Zi the best, he wouldn't steal a chicken!”The deaf old lady was not deaf at all at this moment. She glared at the first grandpa and shouted.
"Old lady, look at Silly Zhu's pot, it's stewing! The evidence is conclusive!" Although Xu Damao was a little afraid of the old lady, he couldn't care less about his own interests.
"It's getting late, and Chief Wang is busy with work. How about this? Everyone, raise your hands. Those who agree to let them stay, raise your hands.”First Uncle struck while the iron was hot and wanted to knock this matter to death.
"Wait, are you Teacher Xu from the West Side Compound?”Chief Wang suddenly asked Xu Qiubai. Xu Qiubai had cut her hair short, so she couldn't recognize her for a moment.
"It's me. Thank you, Chief Wang. If you hadn't sent food to me and the children, we... might not have survived until now.”Xu Qiubai also recognized Chief Wang. That day, she and a few other comrades had gone to deliver a bag of noodles to her.
"Aiya, this is really Teacher Xu. You guys might not know this, but Teacher Xu used to be a famous opera teacher in our city's Children's Palace. She has been helping her senior sister raise three children. "Our street has always wanted to help, but our funds are limited. This is great. If your Siheyuan can take Teacher Xu in, I will represent our street to express our gratitude to everyone!”Chief Wang bowed to the crowd and walked toward He Yuzhu.
"You must be He Yuzhu. Thank you so much for helping Teacher Xu and the three children. Your spirit is really rare. I will report to the organization and apply for a portion of the funds to help you and Teacher Xu raise these three children.”Chief Wang grabbed He Yuzhu's hand and said enthusiastically.
The second uncle, Xu Damao, Jia Zhangshi, and everyone else in the courtyard house were all stunned. This…who the f * ck invited Chief Wang over!
