Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 168 Powerful Genes
After another two days, the deaf old lady couldn't stand it anymore.

Most of the winter vegetables she prepared were stored in the cellar, and only a small part was placed in her home and at her doorstep.

In order to establish Yi Zhonghai's reputation as a respectful elder, Miao Cuilan usually prepared meals and sent them to him.

She hardly ate any of the food outside her house.

But no matter how much those dishes were not eaten, the remaining reserves were not enough for so many people.

In a few days, the winter vegetables stored at the deaf old lady's door will be gone.

Seeing this, the people in the courtyard hid their own food tightly and even avoided the Jia family for meals.

Jia Zhang also made a fuss, and Qin Huairu also went to borrow vegetables with a bowl in hand, but the effect was not very good.

Yi Zhonghai also showed up, and there was some effect, but then people started saying that he had fallen too close to the Jia family's bed.

In today's courtyard, the three uncles do not have the endorsement of the Military Control Commission, and they are not on good terms with each other, which results in them not being able to maintain their original prestige.

The people in the hospital don't dare to confront them openly, but they will fight back in various ways behind the scenes.

This is exactly what He Yuzhu wants to see.

It is somewhat unrealistic to completely stop the conspiracy of Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady. They can be idle all day long and even think about scheming against others when they sleep, but He Yuzhu does not have so much time to compete with them.

If you want to deal with them, their evil deeds do not constitute a crime.

For now, He Yuzhu can only try his best to prevent them from establishing their prestige in Siheyuan and prevent them from having the final say in Siheyuan.

In fact, the safest way is to unite the people in the hospital to fight against them.

But this is also the least secure method.

Through Sha Zhu's memory, he found that these people were worse than fence-sitters.

People who sit on the fence are like grass, which bends with the wind. Even when there is no wind, it grows upwards.

It’s not the same with the people in the hospital. They will believe any fake news you make up.

For example, the so-called martyr's relative who was later deaf, an old lady with bound feet, had difficulty even going out, so how could she have the ability to deliver shoes to the army thousands of miles away.

In addition, after the steel mill company was merged, it was expanded into the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, and the factory needed to recruit people from outside.

The people in the hospital placed their hopes on Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, thinking that with their identities, they could help everyone enter the steel mill.

They are dreaming.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong would rather sell those places than give them to these people.

The steel mill expanded several times, but there was not a single vacancy in the courtyard.

To be honest, it was just Shazhu who got a spot.

Yi Zhonghai said that he and the deaf old lady begged and pleaded for the gift for Sha Zhu.

Actually, it shouldn’t be.

It was indeed the deaf old lady who asked Director Yang for Sha Zhu's job quota. But Director Yang just went with the flow and gave them a quota.

At that time, the steel rolling mill itself needed a cook with good cooking skills.

Even without the two people, the steel rolling mill would still be hiring.

Cooks recruited through the steel rolling mill's formal procedures will be treated the same as regular employees from the start.

When Sha Zhu entered the steel rolling mill through them, he did not receive such good treatment. He worked as an apprentice for three years before being hired as a regular employee.

Although this was due to Sha Zhu's bad temper and the fact that he offended someone, it was ultimately caused by the two of them.

He Yuzhu watched the farce in the courtyard with great pleasure, while the deaf old lady also forced Yi Zhonghai to find a solution.

Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to tell Qin Huairu about his suggestion.

It just so happened that the deaf old lady also understood the current situation and agreed. After work that day, Xu Damao brought Xu Xiaoling to the He family.

"Brother Zhuzi, my father asked me to tell you. Yi Zhonghai has called another meeting with Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui."

He Yuzhu just nodded and didn't say anything.

This situation was actually within his expectations.

The current situation in the courtyard is too different from the plan of the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai. They obviously cannot accept it, and sooner or later they will find a way to force Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to bow their heads.

Xu Damao was puzzled when he saw that He Yuzhu didn't show any reaction.

"Why aren't you anxious at all?" He Yuzhu said, "What's there to be anxious about? No matter how they discuss, it's their business. As long as the Military Control Commission doesn't give the order, they can't do anything."

Xu Fugui obviously told Xu Damao about it.

After listening to He Yuzhu's words, Xu Damao asked, "What if they unite and go to find Director Pan? Director Pan has a very good relationship with the deaf old lady."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's useless no matter how good the relationship is. Some things can't be done just by someone saying it.

Liaison officers are just liaison officers, and their role is to deal with spies. No matter how capable Director Pan is, he dare not openly give them too much power. "

Xu Damao said: "You don't know, some of the liaison officers in the hospital have great power."

He Yuzhu shook his head: "How did you go to school? Have you heard of the saying that power comes from the barrel of a gun?

The liaison officers in other hospitals have great power for a reason. Either they have prestige and are supported by the people in the hospital, or they have made contributions and received awards, becoming a role model for others.

Do the three old men in our courtyard have this ability?"

Xu Damao said disdainfully: "Just them? If the spies come, I will admit defeat to them if they are not the first to surrender.

During this period, the three people made the courtyard a mess. Yi Zhonghai kept shouting that we should respect the elderly and help each other, but in fact, he just wanted everyone to be a scapegoat and help him take care of the deaf old lady and the Jia family.

Let’s not talk about Liu Haizhong, a lousy blacksmith. He puts on more airs than Director Pan and wants to scold everyone he sees. He treats us neighbors like Liu Guangtian.

There is also Yan Bugui in the front yard, who doesn't go to work all day and just stands at the door, his eyes eager to get into other people's pockets. The old bastard even tricked me into giving a piece of candy. I saved that for the beauty in our class."

It seems that the growth of the three uncles was not affected by him. They grew in the direction they should.

In this regard, He Yuzhu can only say one thing: genes are really powerful.

The Xu family wants to use him, and He Yuzhu also wants to use the Xu family.

"Stop complaining. If you want to deal with him, just trip them up from behind."

Xu Damao was surprised: "How to do it?"

He Yuzhu asked: "Do you know why Yi Zhonghai wants to take care of the deaf old lady?"

"why?"

"The deaf old lady receives relief from the Military Control Commission every month, as well as a house. When the deaf old lady dies, the house will belong to Yi Zhonghai. If someone offers you a house, would you agree?"

Xu Damao said dissatisfiedly: "Then he can take care of it himself. Why should we honor the deaf old lady?"

He Yuzhu explained: "You don't understand. If everyone takes care of the deaf old lady, won't he save money? The good reputation of taking care of the deaf old lady is still his."

Xu Damao sat there, and after figuring it out, he cursed: "This old bastard is really a piece of shit, he's playing us like monkeys."

He Yuzhu continued, "He asked everyone to help the Jia family for the same reason. He had no children, and he accepted Jia Dongxu as his apprentice because he wanted Jia Dongxu to take care of him in his old age.

Xu Damao suddenly realized: "I was wondering why he was so biased towards the Jia family. Everyone thought he had a crush on that shrew Zhang, but I didn't expect that he actually had this purpose. I must expose him."

It cannot be ruled out that Yi Zhonghai fell in love with Jia Zhang, but after Qin Huairu came, Yi Zhonghai definitely did not like her.

Of this, he was certain.

He Yuzhu reminded: "Do it cleanly, don't let him find out."
