The conspiracy of the courtyard

It was not clear what Yi Zhonghai and the old lady had discussed, but as soon as Chen Ping returned home, Lu Zhihai slammed the door loudly. Chen Ping opened the door and hit him on the arm with a rolling pin. "If you don't know what politeness is in the future, this will be the end. Get out." After that, he closed the door and prepared to cook and eat. He Yushui and Lu Zixuan were so scared that they trembled. Lu Zixuan thought he was scared and kept looking down... The bed

After a long while, Lu Zhihai said aggrievedly, "My master asked you to go to the middle courtyard for a meeting." "Sister, are you talking about our affairs? Why is Uncle Yi like this? What does our family's affairs have to do with him?"

"Well, I want to be your father, so that you can remember his good deeds and take care of him in his old age," Chen Ping joked.

"I don't even want my biological father, so why would I want this stepfather? No, he's just a neighbor. I call him uncle because he's old. I only support my sister, so who else? That won't work." He Yushui also said

"Oh, our rain is so good at talking. OK, let's eat an extra egg later and make ourselves pretty. Everyone who sees us will praise our beauty, okay?" The two continued to laugh and joke.

But the people in the Central Courtyard were confused. "I say, Lao Yi, what's the matter with you suddenly notifying everyone to hold a meeting?" "Yes, there's water on the stove at home." "If you have something to say, just say it quickly. If you don't have anything to say, just go home. You are so idle..."...

Yi Zhonghai saw that the situation was getting chaotic, and he didn't know what to do. After all, it was his first time, and he was not used to it. He turned his head and looked at the old lady, and instantly understood what she meant. "Let everyone come, there must be something wrong, who else hasn't come?" Yi Zhonghai understood the old lady's expression, if he wanted to establish his authority, he had to show off.

“Many people didn’t come.” “What good news? Everyone has to come?” “A dinner for the whole hospital? Can that wait?” “What? Dinner again? Okay, wait.” “Then hurry up and call someone.” “You don’t even want to eat, you’re stupid.” Well, the rumor spread and it became that Yi Zhonghai was going to treat the whole hospital to a dinner. Yi Zhonghai was at a loss. Was it the first time that it was going to be so quick? It ended earlier than it started? …

No matter how noisy it was outside, Chen Ping and He Yushui were not affected at all. After dinner, they were still doing digestion exercises. What kind of exercises? They were talking and telling jokes to see who could hold back. It was good for abdominal muscles... They were having fun when Wu Guihua knocked on the door and said, "Old Yi is inviting everyone to dinner. Let's go." They both saw the confusion in each other's eyes and quickly put on their shoes and went out.

When we got to the middle courtyard, it felt like there were more people, more than when he scolded Yan Bugui. Yes, his family didn’t participate last time. Yi Zhonghai saw Chen Ping coming out with rain, so he shouted, “Everyone, be quiet. A meeting should be conducted in a proper manner. Who wants to be noisy?” “Can’t you just say the time? Why make such a big fuss?” “Yes, Old Yi, you can just say the time. If you have anything to say, it’s the same thing to talk about it over a meal, right?”…

Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand it anymore, clapped his hands, and shouted: "Who said anything about dinner? We were talking about Sha Zhu's family." Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a sudden retort, "Wait, Sha Hai, I said last time that if anyone calls Zhuzi by mistake again, don't blame Zhuzi for smashing your house." Who else could the soprano be but Chen Ping? "Sha Hai, everyone said you came because you invited them to dinner, what's the matter? You didn't recognize them after they showed up? Are you here to embarrass yourself?"

"No, who are you calling? What are you calling?" Yi Zhonghai's scalp went numb and his throat tightened when he heard Chen Ping's voice, fearing that he would lose face again. Sure enough, as soon as she opened her mouth, it pierced his heart.

"Silly Hai, what's wrong? The announcement just now said that Lao Yi invited the whole hospital to dinner, but now he's turned his back on us? Well, a big shot in a steel plant, a senior master chef, his words are like farts, and they don't count? Are all the masters in your steel plant like this? Come on, I'll have to ask some other day. I wanted my son to be a master chef too, but forget it. Don't produce another boastful master chef," Chen Ping said with a sneer.

"Chen Ping, I didn't provoke you, did I? You come and scold me?" Yi Zhonghai felt his face getting hot, and he didn't care about the details, "Scold you? What did I scold you about? What? You want to be scolded? Okay, let's do it another day. I'm really busy today. I will definitely scold you when I'm free. This is a rare request. Haha, it's rare." Chen Ping continued to tease Yi Zhonghai

"What did you call me? Silly Hai? What did I do to make you call me that?" Yi Zhonghai asked angrily with a flushed face, "Ah? You said this? I thought it was your old hobby that you like to add the word silly, then what do you call Zhuzi? No one has called you that for how long, why are you calling you that? What's the matter? Do you have two heads? Or three legs? Or do you think your house is shabby and want to change the furniture? Okay, when Zhuzi comes back later, I'll let him visit your house. You are really awesome. Half a year ago, no one dared to challenge Zhuzi, but you dare. You are worthy of being a senior chef, awesome." As soon as Chen Ping said this, Yi Zhonghai wilted. Why? Because everyone saw with their own eyes that He Yuzhu smashed a pure steel pot with one punch, and someone tried it with a sledgehammer, and it took two hammers. How could he not be afraid? Haha... it's fake, Chen Ping and He Yuzhu were acting for others to see.

"Okay, I was wrong. I'll apologize to Zhuzi when he comes back, okay? Today..." Yi Zhonghai had to give in. "No, you shouted when Zhuzi was not around. You knew Zhuzi was soft-hearted and would forgive you, so you did it on purpose, right? Now, either say sorry to Zhuzi's house, or there will be no Yi Zhonghai here, only Shahai," Chen Ping insisted.

"Chen Ping, don't go too far. Don't think I don't have anything on you," Yi Zhonghai threatened. "Silly Hai, do you know what will happen if you threaten or spread rumors about state officials? Three years in prison at the lightest and ten years at the worst. Threaten me?" Chen Ping's face turned cold in an instant, and she glared at Lu Zhihai, scaring him so much that he didn't dare to look at her. Yi Zhonghai didn't know whether he was threatened or scared, but he didn't say a word.

"I'll give you one chance. Either you apologize or you'll be stupid." Chen Ping said in an aggressive manner. "Okay, I apologize. I'm sorry, Zhuzi." For the sake of his own plan, Yi Zhonghai gave in once again and had to muster up the courage to say, "I want to talk about He Yuzhu's family affairs." "Excuse me, who are you to Zhuzi? What's the relationship between you and him? Why do you care about Zhuzi's private affairs? Does his family affairs threaten the security of the country? Or does it affect the harmony of the neighbors? What rights do you have to publicize other people's private affairs? Who gave you the power to pry into the family affairs of ordinary people?" Chen Ping continued, not giving Yi Zhonghai any chance

Yi Zhonghai was speechless. "I want to talk about He Daqing," he could only say dryly. "Zhu Zi, you speak." Chen Ping called out He Yuzhu. In fact, he had arrived earlier. He had arrived when Chen Ping arrived. He only knew today what it felt like to be protected. Only today did he know that there had always been someone protecting him, even surpassing his mother's love for him. He Yuzhu walked to Chen Ping with tears in his eyes and called out "sister". He stood next to Chen Ping. Chen Ping handed over her handkerchief with disdain, "Hurry up and wipe the cat urine. Let's talk about business."

He Yuzhu took the handkerchief, wiped away his tears, and slowly walked towards Yi Zhonghai
