Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

"cough cough"

Uncle Yi Zhonghai coughed a few times with an unpleasant look on his face. He didn't know where Ye Wenwu got the confidence from to be so arrogant.

"Okay, okay, everyone stop staring at Ye Wenwu."

"What happened in our compound today is actually about Sha Zhu. Shan Shan has been with everyone in our Red Star Courtyard for more than 20 years. Everyone knows what kind of personality Sha Zhu has. He is usually a very well-behaved person and rarely causes trouble. However, this time, for some unknown reason, he got into a fight with Ye Wenwu from the front yard of our compound in the factory cafeteria."

"I won't go into the details of the whole incident. What I want to tell you is that the old lady and I went to see the factory manager. The manager and others thought that Sha Zhu's incident had a serious impact on the company, so the punishment for Sha Zhu was that he had to apologize in front of everyone in the factory, and his chef rank had to be demoted by one level. In addition, he had to pay 500 yuan in compensation to the workers for their losses. The money was used by the factory to buy new meat and then compensate the workers."

"My idea with the old lady is that after all, Sha Zhu is from our courtyard, and this matter also involves Ye Wenwu from our courtyard. Since Sha Zhu has been punished, Ye Wenwu should at least show some respect, right?"

"Ye Wenwu, what do you think?"

Uncle Yi Zhonghai has said this, and Ye Wenwu also knows what their plans are today.

They must have been unable to persuade the factory director. Ye Wenwu had no way of helping Sha Zhu to bear the apology and demotion. The only thing he could help Sha Zhu to bear was a 500 yuan fine from the factory?

"What can I mean? I have no idea. If you have something interesting, just tell me. Just tell me how much money you want to donate to help Sha Zhu. I want to see how much you can donate. I want to calculate how much I can donate."

Ye Wenwu, who was just going through a process, would certainly not follow what Yi Zhonghai said.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai's face changed.

"Ye Wenwu, when did I say I wanted to donate money? Don't make trouble here."

"This incident was caused by you. You, Ye Wenwu, must also bear the 250 yuan fine from the factory."

Ye Wenwu's face turned cold at this time. After all, the other party had already attacked him in the face, so there was no need for him to give him face.

"Yi Zhonghai, what do you mean? Was this your idea or someone else's?"

"Ye Wenwu, don't worry about whose idea it was. We had already discussed it before you came here, and everyone thinks you should pay the 250 yuan."

Uncle Yi Zhonghai was also pressing forward, as he knew this was a rare opportunity to strike Ye Wenwu.

“Oh, you guys don’t even dare to come forward to raise this opinion, so I, Ye Wenwu, can’t pay the 250 yuan.”

Ye Wenwu sat on a small stool with his legs crossed, and said with a look of disdain.

"you..."

Uncle Yi Zhonghai stood up and pointed at Ye Wenwu, then turned his gaze to the deaf old lady sitting next to him.

The deaf old lady originally thought that Yi Zhonghai could ask Ye Wenwu to pay the 250 yuan directly, but she didn't expect that Yi Zhonghai would now look directly at her. If she didn't stand up now, Yi Zhonghai might retreat, so she had no choice but to stand up.

“Ye Wenwu, it was I, the old woman, who said that.”

Ye Wenwu turned his gaze to the deaf old lady again.

"Old lady, if you really want to help Sha Zhu, don't you know what Sha Zhu did? I don't believe you don't know. Besides, Sha Zhu wasn't fired. He can make up for this small punishment in a year. Why do you have to keep an eye on me, Ye Wenwu? Am I, Ye Wenwu, so easy to bully in your eyes?"

The deaf old lady shook her head.

"Old lady, I'm hard of hearing and can't hear what you're saying. You should know that you and Sha Zhu are from the same courtyard. We should all help each other. This incident was caused by you and Sha Zhu, so you should share half of the responsibility."

My cousin Zhang Xingbang, who was standing next to me, dropped the half-eaten melon seeds on the ground after hearing this.

"You are so shameless, old lady. My cousin did nothing wrong, so why should he bear half of the responsibility?"

When the old lady heard this, her face suddenly darkened, but she still pretended not to hear it.

"This guy doesn't look familiar. What were you talking about just now? Speak louder."

Cousin Zhang Xingbang had a very unhappy face. It turned out that the old lady was just as his cousin had said, pretending to be deaf and biased.

Ye Wenwu showed a wicked smile.

"I really don't know how you can be so shameless as to ask me to take half the responsibility. You have to know that this is a decision made by the factory. Can the leaders of the factory be wrong? Isn't it a slap in the face of the factory leaders if you ask me to take the responsibility now?"

Uncle Yi Zhonghai and uncle Liu Haizhong both looked extremely unhappy when they heard this. Ye Wenwu's brain was too smart and he worked too quickly. If their people really threatened him, he might really go to the factory to sue them. Given his relationship with the security department, the security department would be able to find out for sure when the time comes.

"Uncle No. 1, Uncle No. 2, why do you look so unhappy? Do you also support the old lady's decision?"

The first uncle Yi Zhonghai and the second uncle Liu Haizhong looked at the deaf old lady with surprise.

The deaf old lady did not expect that Ye Wenwu was so cunning. Once this sentence came out, no one working in the Red Star Steel Mill in the entire compound would dare to stand up and support him.

"Ye Wenwu, do you still care about me, an old lady? Then what's wrong with you paying 250 yuan in compensation?"

Ye Wenwu also stood up, his face turned cold, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Old lady, if you are making trouble here, please go back and don't make trouble in front of me, Ye Wenwu. I respect you as an elder, and there are some things I am embarrassed to say, but don't force me to say them."

"I don't believe that no one in our compound would support what he did."

"You held this full responsibility meeting today, aren't you trying to force me, Ye Wenwu, to pay the 250 yuan? What if I don't pay?"

The deaf old lady snorted and stomped her cane.

"Ye Wenwu, it seems that you really don't have an elder like me in your eyes. You have to pay the 250 yuan today. If you don't pay, don't even think about leaving this yard today."

When Ye Wenwu heard the deaf old lady's words, he was very happy in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged.

"Old lady, do all the people support you? I'm afraid not. I think the first and second uncles don't support you."
