The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu. Thousands of households always replace old talismans with new peaches.
Early in the morning, there were waves of greetings and blessings in the courtyard.
"Uncle, Happy New Year! I wish you good health!" He Yuyu sweetly sent his blessing.
"Uncle, I wish you a good job!" He Yuzhu also sent his blessings.
"Hehehe, I also wish you success in your studies and work! Let's go to the backyard to pay New Year's greetings to the old lady!"
"Old lady, we are here to wish you New Year's greetings! I wish you good health and a long life!" He Xiaotian took the lead in giving New Year's greetings to the old lady.
"May you always be young!"
"I wish you all the best!"
"Okay, okay! Here are the red envelopes for you!" The old lady smiled like Maitreya Buddha and took out three red envelopes and handed them to them.
"And mine? I don't want it." He Xiaotian didn't expect that he still had his own.
"Hahaha, you're not married yet! You're still a child. Why can't you accept it? When you get married one day, you won't even want it anymore!" The old lady forced the red envelope to He Xiaotian.
He Xiaotian had no choice but to accept it. People regarded him as a senior and as a family member, so it was really hard for him to refuse.
"It's a meeting! It's a meeting! It's a meeting!"
"Old lady, don't go out to join in the fun when it's freezing." He Xiaotian stopped the old lady from wanting to attend the hospital meeting.
"Hahaha, that's fine." The old lady knew that today's meeting might not be a good one. He Xiaotian might make some trouble at the meeting, and she was afraid that she would not be able to do it due to human feelings. So the old lady agreed.
During the whole hospital meeting, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Fugui were sitting around a broken table. The others were either sitting or standing, surrounding the three of them. It really looks like a leadership meeting.
"Today's hospital-wide meeting is the first hospital-wide meeting this year. I would like to wish you all good health and success in your work! Now, let's invite the senior man in our hospital to give us a speech!" Liu Haizhong stood up and spoke first. After I finished, I sat down.
"On this day of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, I also wish you all the best! Our hospital has been rated as an advanced quadrangle this year. This is inseparable from everyone's joint efforts. In the future, we will continue to work hard to strive for our hospital to be an advanced courtyard next year. Siheyuan!" Yi Zhonghai took the lead in applauding, and others also clapped their hands in agreement. "Okay, I won't say much more. Third uncle, do you have anything to say?"
"Hahaha, I don't have anything to say, I just wish everyone that all their wishes will come true! Everything goes smoothly!" Yan Fugui came today just to watch the excitement. He knew that He Xiaotian would definitely make some moves today.
"Okay, then why don't we break up..." He Xiaotian interrupted him before the words came out.
"What do I mean by you three stewards? You don't care about such a big thing happening in the courtyard?"
As soon as he heard what He Xiaotian said, Jia Zhang sat down on the ground, no matter how cold the ground was. "It's impossible to live like this! My family is in trouble! My family is poor! It's impossible to live like this!..." This is Yi Zhonghai's order. As soon as He Xiaotian opens his mouth, Jia Zhang will act recklessly.
Hey! If you want to sleep, someone will hand you a pillow. Jia Zhang's howl gave He Xiaotian an excuse. Jia Zhang's voice was loud, and He Xiaotian's voice was even louder, "You all heard it! We are an advanced courtyard, a civilized courtyard, how can we see that the people in the courtyard can't survive? Everyone, look at it! The whole Jia family is How thin have you become? How can you bear it? What did you three stewards do? Are you blind? Can't you see how difficult it is for the Jia family? Open your eyes and see! How thin have all the Jia family become? They are all skin and bones! You don’t want to solve this matter? How dare you talk about an advanced courtyard house? A civilized courtyard house?"
Everyone looked at Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu, and Banggan standing beside them. Which one lost weight? Which one is so skinny? But no one dared to refute. Over the years, they had surrendered to the power of the three stewards, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Fugui.
"Why don't you say anything? Lao Yi, you are the master in charge, what should you do about this matter?" He Xiaotian looked at Yi Zhonghai.
Everyone could tell that He Xiaotian was speaking sarcastically, but no one dared to speak. He Yuzhu was trying hard to hold back his laughter, and He Yuzhu was wondering, "Aunt Jia, Qin Huairu, aren't Banggan quite fat! Why does my uncle insist on saying they are thin? Why don't the people in the courtyard refute my uncle's words?" "
Yi Zhonghai was speechless about Jia Zhang. Why couldn't he hear clearly what they said? This is good, just set up a ladder for people.
Jia Zhang also sensed that something was wrong. "Huh? Didn't you say that Erluzi won't let Silly Zhu help my family? Why do I hear that he is speaking for my family?" Jia Zhang also stopped howling.
The scene suddenly became quiet. Yi Zhonghai glanced at Si Zhu, who immediately said, "Uncle, don't you know? The Jia family..."
Before he finished speaking, He Xiaotian had a brain breakdown. Today you should use your eyes to see and your ears to listen. Look at how these respected elders and good neighbors in your heart plot against you! Shut your mouth! "
After He Xiaotian finished teaching He Yuzhu, he continued to stare at Yi Zhonghai.
He Yuzhu was scolded and shut up, but he didn't know why he was being plotted.
"He Er fool! What do you want to do?" Yi Zhonghai still couldn't help it.
"Hehehe, what don't I want to do? Didn't you just say that our courtyard is an advanced courtyard house? How can you watch the Jia family continue to be in such difficulties?" He Xiaotian said softly and slowly.
In fact, it was really hard for Yi Zhonghai to continue what He Xiaotian said. If he continued, he would inevitably bring up the fact that he had asked Silly Zhu to help the Jia family, so that He Xiaotian could climb up the ladder.
"Today is the first day of the new year. We will discuss the Jia family's affairs later! The meeting is adjourned!" Yi Zhonghai directly announced the adjournment of the meeting.
"Hehehe, let me see who dares to leave? Yi Zhonghai, if you don't explain clearly today, I will go to Director Sun to ask! What kind of families belong to the needy households in Beijing! Since they are needy households, why don't the streets provide Some care?" He Xiaotian spoke not loudly, but it still made Yi Zhonghai stop.
The Jia family is not considered a poor household in the capital, nor is it the most difficult in the courtyard. Yi Zhonghai said that Sha Zhu was willing to help the Jia family. So Yi Zhonghai really didn't dare to bring this matter to the streets.
Seeing that his brother-in-law had stopped Yi Zhonghai from coming to Taiwan, He Yuzhu quickly said, "Brother-in-law, Jia Dongxu was kind to me back then. That's why I was asked to support the Jia family."
