Seeing that First Uncle and Third Uncle were supporting Cao Zhe, Second Uncle felt his face burn. His accusation did not exist at all, let alone punishing Cao Zhe. Thinking of how Cao Zhe dared to ignore him and his arrogant appearance, Second Uncle became even angrier.
"Cao Zhe! Even if you informed First Uncle and Third Uncle, you live in the backyard. Why didn't you inform me, the Second Uncle, about such a big matter like repairing a house? Do you think you did the right thing?"
Cao Zhe chuckled." The matters in the courtyard have always been decided by a show of hands. We don't engage in any dictatorship or one-word rule. Even if it was a decision made by the First Master, he had to seek everyone's opinion. If everyone didn't agree, then they wouldn't do it. The matter of me repairing the house is my family matter. It wasn't really a matter of the courtyard. And I told the First and Third Grandmasters. Both of them agreed. Then this matter was settled. Even if your second uncle doesn't agree, the minority must obey the majority. Do you want to have a one-man rule and be dictatorial in the Council? Or does your second uncle think that the Council can't do anything that you don't agree to?”
"I'm not, I…"
"Cao Zhe, what are you saying?" Xu Damao jumped out at this time,"Is Second Uncle that kind of person?" Who in the courtyard didn't know that Second Master was the warm-hearted one? The backyard is under Second Master's control. You live in the backyard. If you don't tell Second Master about such a big thing like repairing a house, how can Second Master not be anxious? How much did it cost to repair the house? With Second Master's warm-hearted heart, would he let you pay alone? Then I have to sponsor you. If you don't take money from Second Master, you're looking down on Second Master. That's your fault.”
Second Uncle's eyes widened, and his mind was already in a daze. Something doesn't seem right."
Cao Zhe also understood Xu Damao's meaning at this time." So Second Uncle is worried that I'm spending too much money and wants to sponsor me? Sigh, I misunderstood Second Uncle. Second Uncle was so warm-hearted to take care of his neighbors. You took care of me, a junior, and I misunderstood you. It's my fault. I suggest that we all give a round of applause to the benevolent Second Uncle!”
"Hua hua hua!" Applause rang out. Second Uncle was already being roasted over the fire. With his huge popularity and reputation, he had no choice but to fork out money.
At this moment, an old man said," Cao Zhe, how much did you spend to repair the house?”
"To be honest, the labor and materials are 130 yuan.”Cao Zhe said.
"Alright." An elder said," Cao Zhe just moved into our courtyard. The house in our courtyard has been in disrepair for a long time. How can we let Cao Zhe pay for the repair of the house? I originally wanted to hold a meeting to talk about it. The money for Cao Zhe's house repair will be borne by the three of us! I'm a big boss. I'll take the lead. I'll pay 70 yuan.”As he spoke, the first uncle took out a stack of cards from his pocket and counted seven of them on the table.
When Third Uncle heard that, he immediately became anxious. His family did not have any money. Cao Zhe saw this and knew what Third Uncle was like. He quickly said," First Uncle, when I discussed this with Third Uncle a while ago, Third Uncle gave me 20 yuan. At that time, I was too embarrassed to take it, but Third Master insisted on letting me take it. You have to remember this."
"Alright, Third Uncle bid 20 yuan.”First Uncle paused." Third Brother, you're not bad. I don't usually see you being so generous."”
When Third Uncle heard that, he beamed with joy." That's another matter. Xiao Cao is sensible and capable. I like this young man very much. When it comes to such a big matter like building a house, as a teacher, I can't just stand by and do nothing, right?”
"Second Uncle, there's only 40 yuan left. What do you think?”First Uncle looked at Liu Haizhong with a faint smile.
Liu Haizhong didn't even know what expression he had now. Pay? He couldn't bear to. Not paying? Things had already come to this, and it seemed like he was still the one who wanted to sponsor Cao Zhe. If he didn't pay, where would he put his face? Gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, the second uncle also took out a stack of money, counted out four big unity notes, and slammed them on the table.
When the onlookers in the courtyard saw so much money, their eyes turned green. Other than the first and second grandfathers, Xu Damao, who had the highest salary in the entire hospital, only earned 40.5 yuan a month.
At this moment, Shazhu also stood up." Brother Cao Zhe is my sister's savior. If it wasn't for him, I would have been in danger if I had made a mistake. I'll pay 10 yuan for this too. Even if it was the new furniture added after the Cao Zhe brothers repaired the house.”
With Silly Zhu in the limelight, Xu Damao couldn't sit still anymore. He immediately stood up and said," Brother Cao Zhe is my neighbor. I was the one who brought him into the courtyard. Brother Cao Zhe and I hit it off the moment we met. I'll also bid 10…No, I'll bid 15!”
The other neighbors looked at each other. Should they pay or not? Seeing that someone else stood up, Cao Zhe quickly stood up and said," Hey, hey, what's everyone doing? I'm building a house myself. Do you think I can get the entire courtyard to donate? The three elders were paying out of concern for their juniors. Silly Zhu and Brother Da Mao have a good relationship with me. "I appreciate everyone's kindness, but I beg everyone to be magnanimous and not to spend money. I didn't pay a single cent to repair the house, and I even earned a lot. What is this?"”
The neighbors burst into laughter. They all felt from the bottom of their hearts that Cao Zhe was sensible and spoke well. I beg everyone to be magnanimous. It made people have a face. If this was a game world, the words 'Favorability 1 1 1' would definitely appear above the heads of these neighbors.
Just as the atmosphere was getting more and more harmonious, Jia Zhang-shi, who had long been unable to sit still, stood up." Since Cao Zhe's family is so wealthy and doesn't need donations from the people in the courtyard, why don't you give this money to our Jia family!"”As she spoke, Jia Zhangshi actually took two steps forward and grabbed the money on the table.
"Hey, what are you doing?" It was not the three masters or anyone else who cried out in surprise. It was Qin Huairu!
Of course, Qin Huairu would not stop Jia Zhangshi. The reason why she cried out in alarm was because Cao Zhe had already dashed out like a gust of wind the moment Jia Zhangshi extended her hand.
Cao Zhe grabbed Jia Zhang-shi's wrist with one hand and the back of Jia Zhang-shi's neck with the other. He exerted force with both hands and with a bang, Jia Zhang-shi was pressed to the ground by Cao Zhe before she could understand what had happened.
Who was Cao Zhe? Even Iron Bull couldn't stop the Eighteen Black Dragon Hands. The Eighteen Hands of the Black Dragon focused on the strength of the arms and fingers. After Cao Zhe grabbed Jia Zhang-shi's neck, she felt half of her body go numb and she couldn't even lift her arms. He could only fall to the ground and shout," Help! Murder!" Hit an old man…"
Cao Zhe's voice slowly sounded," Old woman, an old man robbing money is also robbing. It's more than a hundred yuan, and you dare to snatch it in front of everyone. Do you want to get shot? Now that you've been caught red-handed and fallen into the hands of the security chief, what do you think we should do?”
