Chapter 303 The Steward with No Prestige

Hearing Yi Zhonghai say that this matter had something to do with him, He Yuzhu asked in confusion,

"Hey Uncle Yi, I might have to correct you on this.
Winter swimming has nothing to do with me. I didn’t say anything and didn’t do anything. It was Liu Guangqi who patted his chest and said he wanted to go winter swimming. "

After talking to Yi Zhonghai, He Yuzhu turned around and looked at Xu Damao who was sitting obediently next to Xu Fugui.

"Big Hat, how did you and Jie Cheng pass the message?
How come this matter has something to do with me after being passed around? I didn’t do anything today!"

"I never said that about the pillar.

I just said to Jie Cheng that when I came back from Director Li's place, I saw you coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative, and then that idiot Liu Guangqi said he wanted to go to Shichahai for a winter swim,

We didn’t say anything else, is it solved? "

"Yes, yes, Damao is right. We never said that winter swimming had anything to do with you.
Otherwise, why would Damao and I beat him up?
This is what Second Uncle just said, it has nothing to do with us brothers."

When Liu Haizhong saw that Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng sold him out without blinking an eye, he immediately shouted angrily,

"Yan Jiecheng..."

But he had just started when he was interrupted by He Daqing who was standing next to He Yuzhu.

"Liu Haizhong, I'm tea to your uncle,
Your own son is so irresponsible and unreliable, how dare you put the blame on my son?

Do you know that winter swimming can kill people if you are not careful?

You said that this matter is related to our Zhuzi. If something happens to your Liu Guangqi, won’t our Zhuzi have to take the blame?
You are still the second uncle of the Siheyuan.

I think you are still a good match."

After criticizing Liu Haizhong, He Daqing looked at Yi Zhonghai and didn't show any politeness to him. He just went straight to him.

"And you, Lao Yi, what do you mean by stepping on my mother?
When Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng just came back, they had already made it clear that the winter swimming incident was Liu Guangqi's own fault.
Why do you say right away that this matter is related to my son? What do you mean?
"Can you, an old man, do this?"

After being scolded by He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai quickly shook his head and explained.
"Lao He, this is not what you think.
What I am saying is that this is related to the pillars, which is different from what you understand.

Didn't Damao just reconcile with them and say that Zhuzi will take Xiao'e to Shichahai to watch them swim in winter next week?

The relationship I'm talking about is this relationship, not the one you understand."

Hearing Yi Zhonghai say this, He Daqing's expression improved a little, and then he immediately retorted,

"I say, Lao Yi, can you organize your words before you speak or do anything, and make your meaning clear?
Also, our Zhuzi wants to watch Liu Guangqi's winter swimming next week, so that's not against the law, right?

What does this have to do with him? "

After He Daqing finished speaking, Liu Haizhong took over the conversation before Yi Zhonghai could speak.

"Why doesn't it matter, Lao He?

You just said it yourself, winter swimming can cost lives if you are not careful.

Now it is your son Zhuzi who wants to watch our son Guangqi go swimming in winter. If anything happens to my son, Zhuzi will be held responsible!"

"I'll take responsibility for your uncle's actions. Liu Haizhong, you're a fucking idiot! Winter swimming or not, your Liu Guangqi can go if he wants, but you're talking like I care.
Our Liu Guangqi is going to Shichahai for a winter swim.

When he started taking off his pants, most of the residents in Shichahai knew about it and gathered around to watch.

With so many people watching, why should our Zhuzi be held responsible? You are really mentally ill."

After the bangs,
At this time, He Daqing was in no mood to attend the meeting. He looked at Ye Zhonghai angrily and said,
"Old Yi,

I think you just don't care about anything.

What's the point of you holding a meeting to mediate between Zhang Saozi and Lao Yan? Why do you care about something that the street government doesn't care about?

If the two families want to fight, then let them fight."

Yi Zhonghai also knew that He Daqing was in a bad mood at the moment, so he didn't react even though he was scolded.
After He Daqing had vented his anger, he smiled and said,

"Old He, even if we are not the manager of the courtyard, we are just ordinary neighbors. If there is a conflict between Mrs. Zhang and Old Yan, we should at least mediate between them.

You don’t want to see the yard in chaos all day long, with no peace for everyone, right? "

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was determined to hold this Siheyuan meeting, He Daqing did not force him, but first stated,

"Okay, okay! If you want to start the conversation, then go ahead. But let me make it clear in advance that I won't speak.
I won’t do this kind of thankless task!”

After saying that, He Daqing calmly came to the table and sat down.
He first looked at Yan Bugui, whose face was covered with scratches, then looked at Jia Zhang, whose body had several large footprints, and then prepared to watch the show.

As expected by He Daqing,
Yan Bugui and Jia Zhang both knew that fighting was a trivial matter, and neither the police station nor the street government would intervene.
It is even more impossible for him to be dragged to the two leaders because of such a thing.

So no matter how Yi Zhonghai worked, the two of them did not take his words seriously and just kept arguing among themselves.

After a stalemate for a while,

Seeing that Yan Bugui and Jia Zhang were both stubborn, the hot-tempered Liu Haizhong became a little impatient.
"Alright, alright, Lao Yi, since Lao Yan and Zhang Ma don't want us to care, then we simply don't care.

Anyway, it's just a small matter like fighting, not a matter of principle.
Let’s talk about the next thing.”

Although Yi Zhonghai failed miserably in his first attempt to mediate the conflict between the neighbors in the Siheyuan,
But Jia Zhangshi and Yan Bugui both stubbornly refused to give in.
He had no choice.

I can only put this matter aside for now and work on it slowly later.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's ignore Sister Zhang and the others for now and talk about the next thing."

After saying this, Yi Zhonghai turned around and looked at He Daqing, who was sitting to his right, with his hands on his knees, watching the show calmly.

"Lao He, we just discussed it.
Now that Zhuzi has returned from military service, shouldn't we follow our old practice and give him a warm welcome and some cleansing?

But this is your family affair, so we have to ask for your opinion anyway."

Treating the neighbors in the courtyard to a meal or hosting a welcoming banquet for his son would cost at most 10 yuan. He Daqing, who was making money with his wife, didn't care too much.

I agreed without thinking.
