Siheyuan: I am the God of Cooking, and all the birds are crying with envy!

After dinner, Yan Bugui and his wife, and Yan Jiecheng and his wife came to the backyard and knocked on Liu Haizhong’s door.

"Cough cough..."

An order came from inside, "Second brother, go open the door and see who's here."

Liu Guangtian opened the door and saw Yan Bugui and the other three. "Uncle, Aunt Jie Cheng and Yu Li, why are you here?"

After Liu Guangtian finished speaking, he moved aside to let them in.

The second aunt stood up, brought them bowls, poured a glass of water and placed it in front of them.

"Old Yan, is there something you need at this time?"

With his hands crossed on his round belly, he looks like an official.

Yan Bugui exchanged a few pleasantries with Liu Haizhong and then got straight to the point.

"Look, there are eight or nine people living in my house. Xie Cheng and the eldest son's wife have already started a family. I want to give them a room."

"So I told Shazhu about this and I wanted him to give me the house."

"Let my eldest brother and his wife live there, so it won't be so crowded."

"You should talk to Shazhu first about his empty house. Let me discuss it with you."

"Old Liu, can you give me that house?"

Liu Haizhong turned his thumb to neither agree nor refuse.

Yan Bugui thought that he was thinking so he signaled to Yan Jiecheng and his wife with his eyes.

Yan Jiecheng got a hint from Yan Bugui, so he promised: "Second uncle, if you give the house to my husband and me, we will give you three dollars."

These three dollars seemed to cost Yan Jiecheng his life, but it would be worth it if he could get a house.

"Old Liu, these three dollars are already a lot. You got the house from Sha Zhu but didn't pay him. My three dollars is equivalent to taking the house away from you."

The second aunt who was listening on the side couldn't keep her cool, "Old Yan, you don't know what Sha Zhu said to me, Old Liu."

"If you knew, you wouldn't have thought of that house."

"What's going on?" Yan Bugui was puzzled.

The second aunt glanced at Liu Haizhong and seeing that he had no objection, she told the truth.

"Shazhu's house is not given for free. He said he wants 10 yuan a month for rent."

"what?"

After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng stood up excitedly, but Yu Li, who was sitting on the same stool with him, fell to the ground because of her center of gravity.

"Ouch!" Yu Li cried out in pain after falling.

But she didn't care about her own embarrassment. She leaned on the ground and asked Liu Haizhong in disbelief.

"Isn't that right, Uncle? Is it 10 yuan per month?"

"Although I'm old, I'm not so hard of hearing that I didn't hear clearly." Liu Haizhong was questioned by a junior, and he frowned and glared at her.

"Oh my god! Shazhu, he must be crazy about money!"

Yu Li finally stood up with the help of Yan Jiecheng. She was so shocked that she didn't know what words to use to express her shock.

"So, Old Yan, do you still want this house?"

Yan Bugui sneered, "Shazhu is really asking for such a high price. The monthly rent is 10 yuan. There is no such expensive house in the whole Beijing."

"Even the most prosperous and central area is only 8 yuan a month, but he's charging 10 yuan."

How did He Yuzhu become like this?

"He Yuzhu has become obsessed with his career and money. No, we have to find Yi Zhonghai about this matter and ask him to hold a meeting to criticize He Yuzhu."

"Don't say we are neighbors. Even if we are not neighbors, you can't ask for 10 yuan a month!"

"Besides, his house is empty anyway, so what's wrong with giving us a place to stay?" Yan Bugui stood up after he said this and patted his clothes.

"Lao Liu, you and I should go to Lao Yi now. We must let He Yuzhu know the seriousness of the matter. How is this 10 yuan a month different from the capitalists exploiting the working class?"

"We cannot have capitalists exploiting the working class in our courtyard."

What Yan Bugui said was so righteous and heartbreaking.

But everyone present knew that the so-called capitalists' exploitation of the working class was just an excuse to criticize He Yuzhu.

As long as the three of them work together, He Yuzhu would not dare to be so blatant or ask for an exorbitant price, and he would have to give up the house even if he didn't want to.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui stood up and went to Yi Zhonghai's yard.

The two men found Yi Zhonghai and told him briefly about He Yuzhu's renting a house.

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he slammed the table in anger.

"Nonsense! Now is the time to crack down on capitalists, silly Zhu, this is moving in the direction of capitalists."

"10 yuan a month for rent, how could he come up with that?"

"Old Yi, it's still early, let's hold the meeting!" Liu Haizhong said angrily, crossing his hands in front of his stomach.

"Old Yan, you go to the front yard, and Old Liu, you go to the back yard to notify them to come to the middle yard for a meeting."

With the sound of gongs and drums, another meeting is about to begin in the courtyard.

He Yuzhu had just finished washing up and was about to go to bed when he heard the sound of gongs and drums outside. He didn't want to pay attention to it.

But then I thought, maybe it has something to do with me, and if I don’t go, it will make them feel scared.

The late autumn night was a bit cold, so He Yuzhu put on his coat. When he arrived at the central courtyard, it was already full of people.

He found a stool and sat down, only to hear Yi Zhonghai say: "There are two things today, one about Bang Geng and one about Sha Zhu."

He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows. To put it bluntly, these two things were related to him.

He Yuzhu did not open his mouth to defend himself. He wanted to hear what tricks Yi Zhonghai, Yan Bugui, and Liu Haizhong had waiting for him.

"Banggeng is still a child after all. He loves to play and is ignorant. He did something wrong, but knowing one's mistakes can help one improve. We should give Banggeng a chance to mend his ways."

This is also one of the reasons why he is holding a meeting tonight.

Qin Huairu found him and cried in front of him, crying heartbrokenly.

He couldn't bear to see her cry, so he impulsively agreed to hold the meeting with her.

However, they felt that the reason for holding a meeting just to deal with the Banggeng incident was not sufficient. Just when they were worrying about having no reason, Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong came to them.

He Yuzhu’s rent is 10 yuan, this matter can be utilized.

So this conference took place.

"The Jia family paid 30 yuan for the Banggeng incident, 10 yuan as a fine to the Public Security Bureau and 20 yuan as compensation to Shazhu."

"Now they have no money, so I suggest that everyone donate a little more money to the Jia family for the sake of neighborly harmony, and find a way to find a supporting actor."

Yi Zhonghai kept looking at He Yuzhu while saying this.

Everyone in the yard looked at He Yuzhu.

In fact, they all think that as long as the Lord writes a letter of understanding, then there is no need to donate.

He Yuzhu looked at Nose Nose with concern, and said with his hands limp, "Why are you looking at me? Bang Geng's matter has nothing to do with me."

"Besides, even if he is detained in the police station for a few days, what can happen? The police can still abuse him and not give him food?"

"If you ask me, the reason why Banggeng has become so lawless is that it has a lot to do with the people present here. The Jia family donated money when they were in a little trouble."

"Jia Dongxu must have lost a lot of money in the factory accident! The reason why Jia Zhangshi refused to take it out is to save it for retirement."

"Then I would like to ask, Jia Zhangshi knows that if you save money for old age, won't you also get old?"
