As time passed, the aroma of chicken soup wafted throughout the courtyard.

Many people feel their stomachs growling right after dinner.

"Who's cooking meat here? It smells so good."

In the second uncle's room, the second aunt sniffed hard and sighed.

"Do we need to guess? It must be that brat Zhang Zhiqiang. He has been increasingly looking down on me, the leader of the hospital, these days."

The second uncle snorted coldly and took a sip of wine with the egg.

"How come Zhang Zhiqiang is so powerful now? He is a level 7 worker like you."

"There is no elderly person at home to help, but they live a prosperous life."

The second aunt sighed and clicked her tongue.

"What do you mean by a seventh-level worker like me? Can a fitter and a blacksmith be the same?"

"You can ask him to come to the forge and try it out. He's just an apprentice."

"Let me tell you, I've been getting along really well with the workshop director lately. Maybe I'll be able to get a job as an official in the near future."

Liu Haizhong said stubbornly and unconvincedly, proudly stating his achievements during this period of time.

"Oh my, I knew you were a capable person, Lao Liu."

The second aunt complimented happily. She was greatly influenced by the ideas of the second uncle Liu Haizhong and also believed that being an official would make one a great person.

When Liu Haizhong becomes an official, it will be natural for her to become an official's wife. Then, won't she have the final say in the Siheyuan?

"Haha, there's nothing to say yet, don't tell anyone yet."

Liu Haizhong squinted his eyes happily. He liked to hear others praise him.

"Haha, don't worry, Lao Liu, I know the seriousness of the matter and I will definitely not tell anyone about it."

The second aunt nodded solemnly, treating Liu Haizhong's words as an imperial decree.

"Well, when I become a leader in the factory, the positions in the hospital will definitely be changed. When the time comes, I will just kick Old Yi out and I will be the boss."

"When I become a master, I will definitely teach Zhang Zhiqiang a lesson."

Liu Haizhong said proudly, as if he was already a leader.

"Old Liu, I have no objection to asking Yi Zhonghai to step down, but why do you have to deal with Zhang Zhiqiang? He is not someone you can easily mess with."

"Look, even Yi Zhonghai can't deal with Yi Zhonghai. The Jia family has been bullied like this by Zhang Zhiqiang. He is not an easy person to get along with."

The second aunt advised that in her opinion, there was no conflict between Zhang Zhiqiang and their family, so there was no need to target Zhang Zhiqiang.

"Humph. What do you know? I just became a big boss, don't I need to establish my authority?"

"Zhang Zhiqiang just thought Yi Zhonghai was easy to bully, so he asked him to come and find me, Liu Haizhong, to try."

"In short, I will manage what Yi Zhonghai can manage, and I will also manage what Yi Zhonghai cannot manage. I don't believe that I can't deal with Zhang Zhiqiang."

Liu Haizhong said confidently that he always felt that Yi Zhonghai was not as good as him.

"You still have to be careful. It is said that Zhang Zhiqiang is a skilled martial artist. Even Sha Zhu is no match for him. Those fists hurt a lot when they hit someone."

The second aunt said worriedly.

"It's okay. It's okay if Zhang Zhiqiang doesn't do anything. How can my three sons be afraid of him?"

"He can only bully people like Yi Zhonghai who have no descendants."

"Besides, look at Zhang Zhiqiang, he eats meat every day, but he never sends some to me, the leader of the backyard. He doesn't take me seriously at all. I must teach him a lesson."

Liu Haizhong took a sip of wine and said that he would start his plan once he became a leader.

The second aunt did not try to persuade her anymore. She had little influence in the family and would be beaten by Liu Haizhong at any time. Liu Haizhong made all the decisions on family matters.

In the middle courtyard, the Yi family.

"It smells so good, like chicken soup."

An aunt asked and said with certainty.

Her family was doing well and they could have a bowl of chicken soup during the Chinese New Year. It was especially delicious when made by Sha Zhu. An old lady could tell by the smell.

"It's probably Zhang Zhiqiang's family again. This young man doesn't know how to be low-key at all. He might become a family without a family in the future."

Yi Zhonghai said while gritting his teeth.

Zhang Zhiqiang's salary was only about 80 yuan, while his salary was 99 yuan, which was much higher than Zhang Zhiqiang's.

However, Zhang Zhiqiang's wife also has a job and can earn about 30 yuan a month, which is higher than their family's, making her the person with the highest monthly income in the courtyard.

The most infuriating thing is that Zhang Zhiqiang is still young and does not need to worry about retirement at all. He can spend money recklessly and may not be able to spend it all with just one month's salary.

Unlike Yi Zhonghai, although his monthly salary is 99 yuan, after helping Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu, he only has 60 or 70 yuan left.

In addition, I have to support my family and take care of a deaf old lady, so it would be good if I could earn 50 yuan a month.

Even so, you still have to save money to prevent problems with retirement when you get older.

"Don't say that. It's not good for others to hear. I'll think of an excuse these two days. I'll go talk to Ran Qiuye's wife first and see how she feels about our family."

An aunt complained that she had said at the beginning that Zhang Zhiqiang's parents were both dead and the child was very pitiful, so she wanted Yi Zhonghai to help him.

But Yi Zhonghai didn't appreciate it. He thought that the Zhang family had just lost their parents and the family was left destitute, so he schemed against the Zhang family many times.

As a result, Zhang Zhiqiang's life improved. In less than half a year, he became a level 7 worker, married a beautiful wife, and his family became more and more like a home.

"Well, alright then, I regret talking about this."

Yi Zhonghai scratched his head bitterly and said.

Jia Dongxu was still alive at that time, so Yi Zhonghai couldn't have thought so much. When he heard that Jia Dongxu wanted something from Zhang Zhiqiang's house, he started to plan without saying a word.

Now that Jia Dongxu is dead and Sha Zhu is such a coward, let's keep an eye on Zhang Zhiqiang. He now hates the Yi family and is unwilling to provide for Yi Zhonghai in his old age.

Furthermore, as Zhang Zhiqiang said, even if Zhang Zhiqiang promised Yi Zhonghai to take care of him in his old age, Yi Zhonghai would not be willing to hand himself over to Zhang Zhiqiang.

"The relationship still needs to be eased. I'm usually not wrong in judging people. Zhang Zhiqiang will definitely get better and better in the future. People at your level are all low."

The old lady said with certainty that she had never seen or even heard of a 20-year-old level 7 fitter, and it was impossible for a steel mill to fake the results. Besides, the assessment of the level 7 fitter was supervised by Yi Zhonghai himself.

Then there is only this possibility, Zhang Zhiqiang is really capable.

"Yes, Zhang Zhiqiang is good in every way, but he is too selfish. He hardly interacts with people in the hospital."

Yi Zhonghai sighed and said, of course he knew the reason, it was because everyone in the hospital had plotted against Zhang Zhiqiang, and Zhang Zhiqiang was still a little too stingy.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll try to find out tomorrow."

"Lao Yi, the old lady has been clamoring for meat recently. Do you think of a way?"

An aunt said that it is not easy to take care of a deaf old lady. The deaf old lady is greedy and wants to eat delicious food every day, especially meat.

Especially since Sha Zhu started helping the Jia family, the deaf old lady couldn't get Sha Zhu's lunch box, so she must be feeling uncomfortable.

The deaf old lady is feeling uncomfortable, so she must try to make other people feel uncomfortable as well, otherwise her own discomfort will be in vain.

So the deaf old lady is clamoring for meat every day, but the middle-aged lady won't give her meat? Then I will say it every day to make you feel uncomfortable.
