Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Eventually, this incident affected the deaf old lady.

There was only so much food in Yi Zhonghai's house that it was not enough to feed the Jia family.

Before the rumors were resolved, he didn't dare let Jia Dongxu go to the black market.

Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.

If Jia Dongxu gets caught, all the plans for retirement will be ruined.

In desperation, I could only think about the deaf old lady's share.

The deaf old lady was not willing to do that, and a conflict arose between her and Yi Zhonghai.

You know quarreling won't solve the problem.

The deaf old lady could only help to find a solution.

“Zhonghai, I don’t have much quota, and even if I take it all out, it won’t solve the problem.

This matter still needs to be resolved from the root cause.”

Yi Zhonghai’s face was full of helplessness: “Old lady, I also know that we have to solve the problem from the root, but Sha Zhu refused to give any evidence and deliberately instigated.

I have no other options now.”

An old lady said, "Old lady, why don't you look for Shazhu?"

The deaf old lady shook her head: "What's the point of me looking for him? I've been implicated by you, and Sha Zhu doesn't even give me face."

"What should we do?" The aunt said worriedly, "We can't really go and clarify things for Sha Zhu!"

Yi Zhonghai said coldly: "Absolutely not. I want him to live his whole life with the reputation of being unfaithful and unfilial."

The deaf old lady also disagreed with the aunt's suggestion.

He Yuzhu was not filial to them to begin with. If they help He Yuzhu to clarify things, wouldn't that mean that all of He Yuzhu's actions were correct?

"Don't give me any rash advice. It takes only one mouth to spread a rumor, but it takes a lot of effort to refute it. Can you promise to clarify it for him?"

How can an old lady guarantee that?

Seeing that the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai disagreed, he had to give up.

The deaf old lady pondered for a while and said, "There is only one way now, and that is for Zhonghai to join the game."

Yi Zhonghai looked at the deaf old lady in confusion: "Join the game with your own body? What does this mean? What should I do?"

The deaf old lady said: “Everyone’s worry is nothing more than going to the black market and someone reporting it.

What I mean is that Zhonghai should go there in person.

Once people know you were there, they’ll think they’ve caught you.

This way, they will feel that you dare not report it.

That way everyone can feel at ease.”

Yi Zhonghai's expression changed: "Old lady, have you ever thought about what to do if someone reports me?
Xu Fugui, Shazhu, both of them have grudges against me."

He has done too many immoral things and offended many people. There is no way to guarantee that others will not report him.

This is also the reason why he has never dared to go to the black market.

The deaf old lady said: "If you don't do this, do you have any other way?

If you have enough prestige, not to mention that you didn't report Sha Zhu, even if you did, no one would dare to say anything.

The problem now is that you don’t have enough prestige and others don’t believe you.”

Yi Zhonghai was unwilling and afraid.

"Old lady, there are too many villains in our courtyard. I..."

The deaf old lady suddenly said affectionately: "I treat you as my godson, how can I watch you take risks?

I have already thought of a way to deal with it for you.”

"What method?" Yi Zhonghai asked in surprise.

The deaf old lady said: "First, when you go, call Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui, Xu Fugui, and Li Dagen.

You guys go together, the people in the courtyard don’t dare to offend so many people.”

Yi Zhonghai said: "This is a good idea. If Shazhu also follows it, it will be perfect."

The deaf old lady shook her head: "You forgot that Sha Zhu is a cook and a leader, so he doesn't need to go to the black market.

Look at their family, when have they ever lacked food? "

Speaking of this, Yi Zhonghai became even angrier.

He Yuzhu's family obviously had more food than they could eat, but they were unwilling to help the Jia family.

If He Yuzhu was willing to help, how could he let Jia Dongxu take the risk.

No matter how angry he was, he had no way to deal with He Yuzhu. If he had known that there would be food rationing, he would have really fooled He Yuzhu.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at the deaf old lady and felt a surge of admiration in his heart.

The deaf old lady had already said that she wanted to plot against He Yuzhu, she was really preparing for a rainy day.

It’s a pity that He Yuzhu has such a bad nature and has no filial piety at all.

"Madam, let's do as you say. I'll go discuss it with Lao Liu."

The deaf old lady stopped him and said, "Don't worry. There's one more thing. Can you buy some more corn flour?"

"I know." Yi Zhonghai said indifferently.

He originally planned to buy corn flour, not white flour.

The deaf old lady knew that Yi Zhonghai didn't understand what she meant.

He quickly said, "What I mean is that you should buy more corn flour and give some to every household."

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and said, "Old lady, you are stupid. Those people ruined my reputation, why should I send them corn flour?

It would be great if I could use the cornmeal to support Dongxu. Dongxu can also provide for our old age.”

The deaf old lady said: "You should take a long-term view.

You forgot that your liaison officer position has been revoked. Without the identity of a liaison officer, you, as an old man, are not legitimate and your words are not in order.

This is also the reason why everyone dares to spread rumors about you behind your back.

I asked you to deliver cornmeal to everyone, firstly to shut everyone up.

If someone reports you, just say that you see that people in the orphanage are having a hard time and want to help everyone.

This will mitigate your guilt.

Secondly, it is also a way to win people’s hearts.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui are both incompetent people. They have made our courtyard a mess.

The chaos in the courtyard will sooner or later be known to the street office.

If you fail to gain everyone's support, Director Wang might let Xu Fugui or Li Dagen be the liaison.

If the two of them become liaisons, your position as a senior official will become even more precarious.”

Yi Zhonghai already understood what the deaf old lady meant, but he still felt very uncomfortable.

Using your own money to do things for yourself and then giving it to others for free is a loss no matter how you think about it.

“It would be nice if it didn’t cost any money.”

The deaf old lady said, "Don't even think about it. Shazhu is disobedient and Tiezhu is against you. No one will help you."

Yi Zhonghai's thoughts were cut short, and the deaf old lady had finished what she wanted to say.

He got up and went to Liu Haizhong's house and told him the plan.

Liu Haizhong thought about it and agreed. He hadn't been to the black market recently, and he had been wanting to buy some eggs since he had run out of eggs at home.

Yi Zhonghai was not surprised and said, "My relationship with Lao Xu is not good. I need you to go talk to him."

Liu Haizhong felt that it was not a big problem, so he agreed.

Yi Zhonghai went to the front yard to find Yan Bugui.

When Xu Fugui heard what Liu Haizhong said, he immediately refused: "Lao Liu, my family has enough food, there is no need to go to the black market.

I won’t go.”

Yi Zhonghai was worried that Liu Haizhong would let the cat out of the bag, so he didn't tell him the real purpose.

Seeing that Xu Fugui disagreed, Liu Haizhong didn't care.

In the front yard, Yan Bugui was unhappy: "Old Yi, the things on the black market are too expensive, I won't go there."

Yi Zhonghai said: "Old Yan, this time we are not here to buy anything. We are here to eliminate the suspicion of the people in the hospital."

Yan Bugui still insisted: "If you have enough food, you won't be poor. If you don't plan well, you will be poor. I would rather not eat than buy expensive things."

Yi Zhonghai suppressed his anger and gave Yan Bugui one dollar as a reward before he agreed to go along.

Then Yan Bugui asked him for another two cents and helped him persuade Li Dagen.

Li Dagen didn't agree either. Their family had a large ration, and with He Yuzhu's secret subsidies, they had enough food to eat.

"We have enough food for this month, so there is no need to go to the black market. You guys go ahead. Don't worry, I never report anyone."

Yan Bugui had no choice but to go back to find Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai asked in confusion: "It's true that they have a ration, but is it really enough to eat?"

Yan Bugui said: "You forgot. Their daughter often eats at Sha Zhu's house, so this saves money." (End of this chapter)
