Chapter 192: General Assembly Part 2

The person who spoke was the deaf old lady who lived opposite. She was sitting beside the table in the yard, leaning on a crutch with her left hand, and shouting in the direction of the old Jia family.

Yi Zhonghai sat on the right side of the deaf old lady. He acknowledged the old lady as his godmother and acted like a great son.

I think he intervened in this matter by using the deaf old lady's mouth and the old lady's name.

"Madam, I have a good old hen at home. It can still lay eggs..."

Xu Damao turned around, greeted the deaf old lady with a smile, and explained his reason and purpose, which was just to ask for more compensation.

The old lady looked up at Xu Damao and said, "I didn't hear you clearly because I'm old. Please speak louder."

Xu Damao was speechless. I was talking to the people in the room from such a distance just now, and you could hear it. This time, I was talking specifically to you, and you pretended not to hear clearly again?

The deaf old lady just stared at Xu Damao, as if to say, "Say something else, please."

Helplessly, Xu Damao sighed, knowing that the old lady didn't have any good feelings towards him, so he turned away.

"Zhu Zi, Wang Gensheng, what do you think we should do about this matter?"

He Yuzhu turned his head and looked at Wang Gensheng again. The meaning was very clear, he was waiting for him to make the decision.

Wang Gensheng scratched his head fiercely. How come this matter came full circle and now it’s his fault?

At this time, someone stood up and spoke:

"This is a serious act of peeping. Let's just say it. Who will take it seriously in the future? Won't things be lost in our courtyard every day?"

"Yes, I would say that this matter must be punished to serve as a warning to others."

Xu Damao also looked at Wang Gensheng with a smile on his face, waiting for him to make a decision. At this moment, the uncle in charge of the courtyard became a decoration, which made the second uncle so angry that he glared.

"Xu Damao, I think we should just let Qin Huairu pay you back, and punish her severely!"

"Yes, last time her family stole a chicken, she paid you ten dollars. This time, she should pay you ten dollars too!"

"If you ask me, paying the money is better than sending him to the police station."

Liu Haizhong also spoke up, persuading Qin Huairu to calm down.

When something like this happens, there must be punishment and it cannot be tolerated. Otherwise, in the future, everyone will think that there is a loophole to exploit, and it is possible that someone in the Siheyuan will do the same thing again.

"When something like this happens, you can't just return the chicken and call it a day. Xu Damao's family lost a live chicken, and you returned a dead one, which is also a loss for them."

Wang Gensheng spoke, and his words were very logical.

The deaf old lady nodded after hearing this; she was not angry at Wang Gensheng for causing trouble.

"If everyone holds on to this fluke mentality, thinking that if they steal the chicken and eat it, no one will know, and if they get caught, they can just return the chicken and be done with it, then that is tolerating evil!"

"Yes, tolerating evil will only foster evil! Our courtyard will become a den of thieves in the future." The third uncle Yan Bugui also spoke up, showing off his knowledge.

The deaf old lady sitting at the side of the eight-immortal table not far away asked: "Now that this matter has been discovered, tell me, what should we do?"

Yi Zhonghai, who was beside her, began to look unhappy, knowing that the deaf old lady was more inclined towards Wang Gensheng.

Qin Huairu looked around and finally realized that among the birds in the courtyard, no one stood up to speak for her. She also knew that her family was not welcome in the courtyard.

He lowered his head and spoke first: "Okay, I accept the punishment, but it can't be ten dollars. I can't afford that much."

"As you can see, my mother-in-law is injured and needs to buy medicine. My family relies on my salary alone and we can hardly make ends meet."

Xu Fugui was not happy when he heard this. He didn't care whether Widow Qin's family could make ends meet. He only cared about the chickens in their Xu family.

"If you ask me, how many eggs can this old hen lay even if you keep it forever? Don't you still need to feed it? I'll give you the hen, and ten dollars more is really too much."

This is an old lady standing up to endorse Lao Yi.

Unexpectedly, after she spoke out, many people in the hospital nodded in agreement.

"Then tell me, how much compensation should be paid? It can't be less than five dollars, right?" Xu Fugui spread his hands, not daring to offend the crowd.

"What money do you want? I'd better ask the police station to handle it." After Xu Damao was cut off from his roots, he hated the Jia family completely and wanted to kill them if he had the chance.

In particular, now Uncle Yi Zhonghai is no longer the person in charge of the hospital.

You can't use morality to pressure him at every turn. Compared to asking Qin Weiru to pay five dollars, Xu Damao wanted to take her to the police station.

This is also the reason why Wang Gensheng stood there and was not in a hurry to speak. He just wanted to be a member of the masses who watched the show and did not want to be the first to speak out.

"Da Mao, we can just deal with the issues in our courtyard behind closed doors. Why do we have to make it known to everyone? If you do this, where will the boss of our courtyard put his face in the future?"

Yi Zhonghai still couldn't help it, he stood up and spoke, and before he could say a word, he pulled the second uncle and the third uncle and tied them to the same chariot with him.

"Yes, it's only been a few days, and our hospital has been working hard for the police station. How can we be the one in charge?"

Liu Haizhong also had to stand up and form a united front with Yi Zhonghai.

"Yes, Xu Damao, this can't be done this way." The third uncle Yan Bugui also said so.

At the same time, Liu Haizhong did not forget to turn around and persuade Qin Huairu:

"Xiao Qin, if you are really taken to the police station, it will affect your work. It's better to pay more money."

"No, we have already returned the chicken to their family. Why should they ask us to pay compensation? I don't accept it!" Jia Zhang, who was lying on the bed in the room, was still talking nonsense.

Yan Bugui also hurried forward to persuade: "Aunt Zhang, your family killed the chickens, so it's a relief for you to pay a little money."

"You old glass, you have no right to speak, are you going to help our family pay for this?"

Jia Zhang in the room refused to accept the favor and asked the third uncle to help with the money.

Considering that the third uncle is a man who would rather spend every penny in four parts, how could he possibly help her family with money?

Upon hearing this, he immediately turned around and pretended not to hear what Jia Zhang said.

Without getting a response from Yan Bugui, Jia Zhang's voice was heard again, directing the spearhead at Liu Haizhong.

"The Yan family doesn't want to pay, how about that? Second uncle Liu Haizhong, the manager, can you help our family pay for it?"

Jia Zhang's words left Liu Haizhong speechless. It was true that his salary was higher, but he had a large family.

There are three sons in the family, and they are all getting married. Don’t we have to prepare more money as betrothal gifts?
