"You mean Niu Meng is sick?"
In the team's dispatch room, after listening to Li Weidong's words, Niu Yong's eyes suddenly widened, with a hint of anger on his face.
Li Weidong showed no fear and said with a faint smile: "Old Niu, do you think it is common for a girl to eat more than a dozen steamed buns in one meal?"
"This is indeed unusual."
Niu Yong frowned.
Niu Meng has had a big appetite since he was a child. When he was three years old, he ate more than his eight-year-old brother.
At that time, my parents also thought it was a bit strange, but everyone's conditions were relatively difficult at that time, and they couldn't eat enough all day long, so they thought Niu Meng was greedy!
Later, when conditions got better, Niu Meng gradually grew up and ate more. Her family had long been accustomed to her large appetite.
Besides, people in this era have poor medical knowledge and don’t take eating too much seriously.
Now Niu Yong thought about it carefully and immediately realized the problem.
Li Weidong continued: "Anyway, our factory employees have public medical bills. You can take Niu Meng to the hospital for a check-up. If you are really sick, you can get early treatment. If you are not sick, we can rest assured."
"Weidong, you are really qualified as a master. You are usually busy. I will take Niu Meng to the hospital this weekend." Niu Yong said gratefully.
People in this era are really big-hearted. If they were in later generations, they would have rushed to the hospital long ago.
Just thinking about Niu Meng's appetite for decades, Li Weidong didn't say much.
After chatting for a while, he left the dispatch room and went to the canteen to find Silly Zhu.
After making peace, Shazhu and Shouhou had no major conflicts to begin with. Now that they heard about the opportunity to make extra money, they naturally agreed without hesitation.
Alas, I have been busy all day!
I still feel less comfortable than being a truck driver.
In the evening, Li Weidong stood up from his desk, stretched, picked up his canvas bag and left the steel rolling mill.
As soon as I walked to the door of the compound, I heard a burst of curses coming from the yard.
"Qin Huairu, are you deliberately making things difficult for me? I'm an old man in my fifties, and you asked me to clean the toilet."
"If you don't tell me clearly today, I will go to Director Wang of the subdistrict office and accuse you of bullying the people."
"Don't think that if you have a good relationship with Li Weidong, I can't cure you!"
The voice seemed to belong to Yi Zhonghai and Auntie, so Li Weidong quickened his pace and entered the yard.
As soon as I entered the crescent gate of the central courtyard, I saw people crowding under the old camphor tree.
Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong, the second aunt, the third aunt, Shazhu, Han Zhizhi and He Wenhui.
In the middle of the crowd, Yi Zhonghai and Yi Ma screamed at Qin Huairu at the top of their lungs.
How could Qin Huairu be a match for the two of them? She was so angry that her face turned red and her neck was thick, and she was speechless.
Silly Zhu saw Li Weidong coming over and hurriedly came up to him and said with a smile: "It's time to get off work, brother Weidong."
Li Weidong raised his chin toward the center of the crowd: "What's going on?"
Silly Zhu laughed happily: "Aren't we cleaning up the garbage in our compound today? The first uncle divided the sanitary areas for each household. Yi Zhonghai's family was assigned the latrine area. He didn't want to do it, so he asked Qin Huairu There was a quarrel.”
Li Weidong saw Liu Haizhong standing nearby and fanning the flames, and asked doubtfully: "What's going on with Liu Haizhong?"
"He, his house is allocated to the main road in front of the door. He doesn't like the space and doesn't want to." Silly Zhu felt like he had eaten honey.
Hey, these two former stewards of the courtyard no longer care about unity at all.
Li Weidong stood there with his arms folded and laughed.
Although Qin Huairu was sharp-tongued, she had more experience than Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong. In just a moment, she hesitated and turned red.
At this time, she saw Li Weidong in the crowd and ran over as if she had seen a savior.
"Comrade Weidong, Comrade Yu Li is not at home. You can be considered half of the stewards in our courtyard. You are here to judge whether Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong are right in making trouble with me."
Qin Huairu recounted what had just happened with an angry look.
Although she knew that as a big man, she would be looked down upon if she asked others for help, but she was no match for Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, not to mention that there were also the first and second aunts standing next to them, these two were masters in the world of fighting.
The place assigned to Liu Haizhong's family was in front of Xu Damao's house. Jia Zhang's biggest hobby was to sit at the door and eat melon seeds, leaving the peels all over the floor.
Moreover, who can bear to sweep the floor at her door and endure her insults?
When Yi Zhonghai saw Li Weidong coming over, he didn't panic, but smiled proudly.
He knew that Li Weidong was not the kind of unreasonable person, but this time he occupied the moral high ground. Even Li Weidong had nothing to say.
After all, he is now older and can be considered an old man. The street office has always advocated respecting the elderly and caring for the young. Even if Li Weidong is the director, he cannot be separated from the masses.
After listening to Qin Huairu's words, Li Weidong frowned: "Qin Huairu, as a master, you should set an example in this kind of matter."
"Lead by example?" Qin Huairu was a little confused when she saw that Li Weidong did not speak for her, but instead mentioned her fault.
"Yes, if you want to ask others, you must first ask yourself." Li Weidong said coldly: "I remember that the most difficult place to clean in our compound is the corridor behind the back gable of the deaf old lady's house, right?"
"The deaf old lady stays at home all day now and doesn't go out to throw out the trash. Every time she throws out the trash, she opens the window and takes it out." Qin Huairu nodded.
Qin Huairu couldn't help but shudder when she thought of the situation in the aisle behind the deaf old lady.
Even if she did it on purpose, she would not dare to give that aisle to Yi Zhonghai.
After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she stared at Li Weidong in confusion. She was not sure what Li Weidong meant.
Should we assign the hallway to her house and let her clean it?
No way. She has a very good relationship with Li Weidong, and Li Weidong can't harm her like this.
Unfortunately, before her thoughts had settled, Qin Huairu heard Li Weidong say calmly: "As a master, you should take on the most difficult task in our compound, so the aisle on the back gable of the deaf old lady's house should belong to your house. Clean up.”
Qin Huairu was completely dumbfounded this time and couldn't help but said: "Comrade Wei Dong, what do you mean?"
"Isn't there someone idle at home?" Li Weidong said and looked at Jia Zhang indifferently.
Jia Zhang, who was among the crowd, felt a gust of cold wind coming and couldn't help but shiver.
Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment, then understood and nodded excitedly: "Yes, yes, my mother-in-law Jia Zhang has nothing to do at home all day long. You can ask her to clean the aisle behind the deaf old lady's house."
After Mrs. Jia Zhang was "abandoned" by Yan Bugui and returned to the Jia family, in the first few days, Mrs. Jia Zhang was afraid that Qin Huairu would drive her away again, so she behaved quite honestly and went to the street every day to do business. Come back after receiving the match box, paste the match box to earn money, and help Qin Huairu support his family.
But it didn't take long for Jia and Zhang to reveal their true colors. The matchbox they got back was thrown at home and became motionless.
Carrying a shoe sole all day long, I sat under the old camphor tree with some old ladies in the compound next door, discussing other people's rights and wrongs.
If it were before, Qin Huairu wouldn't think anything of it, after all, Jia Zhang had this kind of character.
but.
Now that Qin Huairu is a big boss in the courtyard, she must pay attention to the influence of the masses. Because Jia Zhang talks about people's affairs behind their backs, she has been asked to talk to the director of the subdistrict office several times.
Qin Huairu also wanted to dissuade Jia Zhang, but now Jia Zhang felt that she had a firm footing and no longer had to be afraid of Qin Huairu.
Ignore Qin Huairu's words.
Qin Huairu was worried about not being able to deal with the Jia Zhang family, and Li Weidong's idea was tailor-made for the Jia Zhang family.
"Yeah!"
After Qin Huairu figured it out, she said loudly to the crowd: "Dear neighbors, what Comrade Li Weidong just reminded is so correct. As the master of the courtyard, I should set an example. So our Jia family decided to take on the task of cleaning up the dragon." The specific person in charge of the important task of the corridor behind the deaf old lady’s house is my in-laws, Jia Zhang.”
Jia Zhang was furious when she heard this. She ran out from the crowd and shouted at Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, what do you mean! My old lady is helping you work, you think so!"
Qin Huairu said calmly: "Mom, you are not working for me, you are contributing to the cleaning work of our courtyard. This is a task assigned by the street office. If you don't do it, then I can only cut you off." Food. Even if you go to the street office to file a complaint, Director Wang will not pay attention to you."
When Jia Zhang was released from the police station, she signed a guarantee letter in front of Director Wang.
Promise to help the Jia family do whatever they can in the future.
"You, you have such a cruel heart!" Mrs. Jia Zhang wanted to give up her job, but she was afraid that Qin Huairu would really leave her alone and that the street office would no longer help her.
Jia Zhang has a rural registered permanent residence and has no food bank account. Although she has a little pension money, it is of little use.
If Director Wang of the sub-district office really hates her and drives her back to Jiajiazhuang, then how can she, an old woman, live?
Although Jia Zhang was reluctant, she had to take the job.
She almost hated Li Weidong in her heart. Only Li Weidong could come up with such a vicious idea.
The Jia family took on the most difficult part of the cleaning work, and Qin Huairu felt confident.
She walked slowly to Yi Zhonghai and said in a cold voice: "Comrade Yi Zhonghai, cleaning the courtyard is related to whether our courtyard can be rated as advanced. As the former leader of the courtyard, you have always claimed that you put the overall situation first, but now you actually If you dare to deliberately shirk, I think you have a problem with your ideological consciousness and want to be a deserter."
One deserter frightened Yi Zhonghai.
In this day and age, this is a big crime. If you are reported to the street office, you will be punished. If it is more serious, you may have to study.
Seeing Yi Zhonghai hanging his head and saying nothing, Qin Huairu cast his sharp gaze on Liu Haizhong again: "Comrade Liu Haizhong, what do you think?"
Liu Haizhong was also speechless.
He retorted, but couldn't find an excuse.
At this time, the onlookers started talking.
"Look, this is the ideological consciousness of Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong."
"My uncle has taken the most difficult job on himself."
"They're still pushing and blocking."
"I'm ashamed to have neighbors like this."
"We should go to the street office together and ask the street office to drive them out of the courtyard."
"Yeah!"
The residents' discussions were like sharp knives, cutting into Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai.
The eldest mother was timid, so she was a little scared. She timidly pulled the corner of Yi Zhonghai's clothes and whispered: "Lao Yi, why don't we give in? Now Qin Huairu occupies the position of the eldest uncle, and there are residents We want our support, and if we go against her, it’s us who will suffer.”
"If you don't want to clean the toilet, I will!"
Yi Zhonghai also knew that in this situation, he could only make this choice.
He gritted his teeth and nodded towards Qin Huairu: "Master, I agree to this matter, but the matter between us is not over yet!"
Qin Huairu chuckled: "Of course it's not over, I still have to check whether you have cleaned it cleanly!" '
Now that Qin Huairu has Li Weidong's support, he is certainly not afraid of Yi Zhonghai.
These words fell on Yi Zhonghai's ears, and he suddenly blushed with anger and his neck was thick.
Thinking of arguing with Qin Huairu, but knowing that he was no match for Qin Huairu now, he could only cover his heart and run away in despair.
When Liu Haizhong saw that Yi Zhonghai had given in, he quickly ran to Qin Huairu and whispered, "Master, I am willing to clean the gate."
"Then I'll help Comrade Liu Haizhong." Qin Huairu raised the corners of her mouth slightly and secretly cast a wink at Li Weidong.
Qin Huairu knew that the biggest contributor to the reason why he was able to control the two former uncles of the courtyard today and punish the Jia Zhang family today was Li Weidong.
After the crowd dispersed, Qin Huairu pretended to walk up to Li Weidong and whispered: "Comrade Li Weidong, is there anything else you can do later?"
Li Weidong raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said with a smile: "It's still half an hour before Yu Li gets off work. Do you need help?"
Qin Huairu looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. She blushed slightly and said softly: "The ditch behind my house seems to be blocked. I want help to clear it."
Sewer. Li Weidong was stunned for a moment, and then he realized when he saw Qin Huairu standing there coquettishly.
Hey, this woman has a really good memory. She clearly remembers all the jokes I told her a while ago.
Under Qin Huairu's expectant eyes, Li Weidong nodded heavily: "Okay, helping my neighbors is my unshirkable responsibility and obligation."
"Virtue!"
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes cutely, turned around and walked towards Jia's house.
Li Weidong followed closely.
Half an hour later, Li Weidong came out of Jia's house on time.
Qin Huairu behind her said loudly: "Comrade Wei Dong, I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for you, the ditch behind my house might have been blocked for many days!"
"You're welcome. If you need anything next time, just let me know."
Li Weidong walked to the sink, turned on the faucet, and washed his dirty hands.
