The courtyard house at No. 95, Nanluogu Lane, is completely famous. The story that several stewards in the courtyard colluded with military martyrs about their jobs and houses has spread throughout Nanluogu Lane, the steel rolling mill and other places.
Due to the notoriety, everyone was embarrassed to go out. Some people began to blame Zhang Zhifei for making a fuss out of a molehill, making the hospital's reputation bad and affecting the children's blind dates.
After Yi Zhonghai was treated at the hospital, he was discharged from the hospital three days later and returned to the courtyard.
Aunt Wang had been keeping an eye on Yi Zhonghai's movements for a long time. After learning that he was discharged from the hospital, she immediately notified the courtyard to hold a hospital-wide meeting tonight to announce the results of the street office.
Yi Zhonghai. Liu Haizhong, Jia Dongxu, and Shazhu have all taken leave at home these days, hoping that everyone will forget about them in a few days.
At about 6 o'clock in the evening, the early winter in the north has become slightly cold, and night begins to fall.
Everyone in the courtyard was sitting neatly in the middle courtyard, while Yi Zhonghai pretended to be supported by Jia Dongxu.
If possible, he would definitely not want to attend this conference. He knew that he was the protagonist of this conference, the protagonist who was about to be criticized.
"Director, everyone is here." A young man from the subdistrict office said to Aunt Wang.
Aunt Wang was chatting with Zhang Zhifei and asked him about his situation these days. When she heard that everyone had arrived, she said to Zhang Zhifei: "Auntie has gone to a meeting. Let's talk later."
Zhang Zhifei nodded. Seeing his brother's thin clothes, he quickly whispered: "If you don't want to live anymore, go home and put on thick clothes."
Zhang Zhiguo could only go home and change clothes under the gloating eyes of his sister Zhang Qianqian.
Aunt Wang walked to the table, without sitting down, and said, "Everyone is here, let's start the meeting now."
"Everyone must know that the purpose of convening today's meeting is to announce the results of Yi Zhonghai and others. It's getting dark early now, and it's cold outside, so I won't say any more nonsense, so I will directly announce the results."
As Aunt Wang spoke, she took out a document with the street office seal from her pocket and read: "In the courtyard house of No. 95 Nanluogu Lane, the steward Yi Zhonghai, his apprentice Jia Dongxu, secretly contacted the steward Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui intended to seize the jobs of Zhang Zhifei's family, a member of the military martyrdom. After the incident failed, he ordered He Yuzhu to beat Zhang Zhifei to no avail, intending to use his influence to drive away the family of the military martyr. The above facts have been investigated by many parties and are completely true. "
Aunt Wang looked at Yi Zhonghai and others in the crowd and said, "You six, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui, Jia Dongxu, He Yuzhu, and Jia Zhang, come forward."
Yi Zhonghai and others stood in front slowly, and Jia Zhang said: "Director Wang, I didn't make any mistakes. Why did you ask me to do it?"
Aunt Wang glared at Mrs. Jia Zhang and said, "If I ask you to step forward, just step forward. Where does all this nonsense come from."
After finishing speaking, she said to Yi Zhonghai and others: "Listen up, here are the results of the treatment for you. Since this is your first time, you will be dealt with leniently.
If there is a next time, every one of them will be counted as one, and they will all go to me to support Northern Xinjiang. Listen well and reflect. "
"The mastermind Yi Zhonghai will be deprived of his status as a steward from now on, and will participate in ideological education for three months and clean the public toilets in Nanluogu Lane for three months."
"Liu Haizhong will revoke his status as a steward from now on, participate in ideological education for two months, and clean the public toilets in Nanluogu Lane for two months."
"Yan Bugui will abolish his status as a steward from now on, participate in ideological education for one month, and clean the public toilets in Nanluogu Lane for one month."
"Jia Dongxu encouraged Yi Zhonghai to find a job for his family, participate in ideological education for two months, and clean the public toilets in Nanluogu Lane for two months."
"He Yuzhu was ordered by Yi Zhonghai to beat Zhang Zhifei to no avail. According to reports from others, He Yuzhu often beat others. He participated in ideological education for three months and cleaned the public toilets in Nanluogu Lane for three months."
"Jia Zhang has been promoting feudal superstition in the courtyard for a long time, insulting others, and being indolent. She participated in ideological education for one month and cleaned the public toilets in Nanluogu Lane for one month."
Aunt Wang looked at the six people and said, "Have you heard the results clearly?"
"Listen clearly." Several people wanted to lower their heads into their crotches, and even Jia Zhang didn't dare to stab him.
"Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui, Jia Dongxu, and He Yuzhu, you guys bullied the military martyrs and should have been severely punished. It was Zhang Zhifei who was so arrogant and did not delve into your mistakes, so the street office gave you a lighter punishment. You still haven't Come forward and thank them and apologize for your wrong behavior." Aunt Wang said.
Yi Zhonghai slowly walked up to Zhang Zhifei's brother and sister and said in a low voice: "Zhifei, I have done bad things out of kindness and I can't help you."
Listening to Yi Zhonghai's still defensive apology, Zhang Zhifei didn't say anything.
The remaining people apologized to Zhang Zhifei. Zhang Zhifei discovered that only Yan Bugui meant to apologize sincerely, and the others were simply hindered by the identity of Director Wang of the Street Office.
Before attending the meeting, Zhang Zhifei told his younger brothers and sisters that the apology from Yi Zhonghai and others was only superficial. These people probably hated their own family.
For the sake of Aunt Wang's face, the brothers and sisters accepted it on the surface, but they did not completely forgive Yi Zhonghai and others in their hearts.
After the apology, Aunt Wang continued to speak.
"The six of you, starting from tomorrow, will clean the toilet every morning. After dinner, you will go to the street office for an hour of ideological education, and then clean the toilet. You can go home after all the work is done. You will ask for leave in the middle, and the time will be postponed. Bad attitude , additional penalties may be imposed as appropriate, do you hear me clearly?”
"Listen clearly." Several people responded in low voices.
"A few final words. From now on, the system of supervisors in your hospital will be abolished. From now on, neighborhood conflicts will be mediated by the street community, and fights will be handled by the police station. That's all I have to say, what else do you want to say?"
Seeing that no one in the courtyard came forward, Aunt Wang continued: "Since everyone has nothing to say and it's getting late, the conference will end here."
After finishing speaking, Aunt Wang came to Zhang Zhifei's brother and sister again and said to several people: "Zhifei, if you have any difficulties in the future, come to Auntie. Auntie will do her best."
"Okay, thank you Aunt Wang! How many of you will come to my house to sit down?" Zhang Zhifei said to Aunt Wang and several street officials.
"No, it's getting late, so we'll go back first." Aunt Wang said.
Shortly after Aunt Wang and the staff from the sub-district office left, there was a burst of shouting and beating from the courtyard, but it was Liu Haizhong who lost his status as the steward and began to beat brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu to vent his anger.
Everyone in the courtyard had long been used to it. No one came to persuade them, and they didn't care what kind of bears the two brothers were beaten into.
Yi Zhonghai returned home with a cold face, lay down directly on the bed, and covered his head. He felt that he was ashamed to see others. Cleaning toilets for three months was embarrassing just thinking about it. The hatred he felt for Zhang Zhifei now could not be washed away by the water of the Yangtze River.
He was originally a high-ranking uncle, an eighth-level fitter in the steel rolling mill, and a model uncle in the eyes of the street office. But because of Zhang Zhifei, he became a street rat that everyone yelled at overnight. Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai felt heartache.
The deaf old lady in the backyard knew that Yi Zhonghai was angry, and she was angry that she didn't think of a way to save him. She needed to make it clear to Yi Zhonghai, so as not to have second thoughts with her and delay her retirement.
The deaf old lady walked from the backyard to Yi Zhonghai's house on crutches. The aunt was clearing the dishes, lowering her head and shedding tears. He believed that Yi Zhonghai's ending today was because he did not give him a son and a half daughter. Blame yourself.
"Cui'e, where is Zhonghai?" the deaf old lady asked the eldest mother when she didn't see Yi Zhonghai after entering the door.
The eldest mother wiped her tears and said, "Go to bed."
The deaf old lady walked into the bedroom, sat in front of the bed, lifted Yi Zhonghai's quilt, and said to him: "You are torturing yourself and can't solve any problems."
Yi Zhonghai didn't speak. He was now depressed and couldn't get over it. He was just a pensioner. How could it be so difficult?
