Siheyuan: I became a truck driver

This sentence immediately ignited everyone's emotions.

"Well said! Investigate thoroughly! Where does his money come from?"

"If you ask me, it's possible that he stole the money!"

"Stealing from whom?"

"He stole from the factory! He didn't go to work yesterday."

Some residents pointed out that Xiao Yun did not go to work yesterday.

The crowd was talking at once, saying all sorts of things.

Within a few minutes, the noise attracted more people.

Even Lou Xiao'e, who usually liked to sleep in the backyard, was attracted over.

As the number of people increased, Jia Zhang's face became filled with joy.

She was unhappy when Xiao Aiguo was scraping fish scales by the sink yesterday. In addition, she did not share any fish with Qin Huairu when they had dinner in the evening, which made Jia Zhang feel resentful.

In this day and age, when everyone is barely able to fill their stomachs, if you live well, people will be jealous and report you!

The noise from the crowd arguing grew louder.

"I even suspect that this fish was stolen from the factory!"

"Aren't all members of the Xiao family soldiers? How could they do such sneaky things?"

"Soldiers? There are bad ones among the soldiers too!"

"Call the police! The police must be called!"

I don't know who said this, which made Yi Zhonghai, who had been standing aside in silence for a long time, speak.

"Why call the police? Do you want to let others know about the shameful things happening in our compound? Do you still want to advance to the compound?"

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's voice, the crowd quieted down.

Someone asked.

"Uncle, how do we deal with this?"

Liu Haizhong looked at Yi Zhonghai, and Yi Zhonghai looked at Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun stood aside with a casual look on his face, blowing smoke rings leisurely, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

Seeing that Xiao Yun had no intention of respecting him, Yi Zhonghai immediately became angry and said to everyone:

"While everyone is here, let's hold a general meeting!"

After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he went straight back home.

The rest of the people also went back to move their small stools.

Even the third uncle stopped moving bricks.

Hearing this, Xiao Yun, who had a blank expression on his face, finally raised his eyebrows.

He knew that this was an old tradition of the Siheyuan.

Whenever there is a conflict, a general meeting of all employees will be held to clarify the matter openly in front of everyone.

As the "judges" of the compound, the three uncles are responsible for making judgments on a matter.

Whatever they say, that's what it is.

Even if some residents disagree, it will be of no avail.

Xiao Aiguo, who had just returned from outside, panicked when he heard that there would be a general meeting of all employees to deal with Xiao Yun.

He hurried forward to stop Yi Zhonghai.

"Old Yi, what's going on? What happened to my grandson?"

Yi Zhonghai turned his head and looked at Xiao Yun with resentment.

"Old man, you fooled us, and now the people in the compound are very angry! It would be unfair if I didn't hold a meeting!"

Xiao Aiguo was confused.

"Old Yi, please explain clearly, why are we so confused about you?"

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it at the meeting." After that, he broke free and went straight back to the house without caring about Xiao Aiguo's reaction.

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai insisted on convening a general meeting of all staff, Xiao Aiguo had no choice but to return to Xiao Yun.

"What did you do that caused everyone to hold a general meeting against you?"

Xiao Yun smiled slightly.

"I don't know. They said we were deceiving everyone. We are a poor household, so they have to hold a general meeting of all employees."

Xiao Aiguo was dumbfounded.

"What? We lied to them? When did we lie to them?"

Xiao Yun shook his head.

"I don't know, but it's okay, Grandpa, just help Grandpa Lin to build the kang, and leave this matter to me."

Xiao Aiguo hesitated for a moment, and thinking of what the uncle said, he chose to believe Xiao Yun.

Xiao Aiguo has lived in this compound for decades. He knows that ridiculous things have happened in this compound and how outrageous the people here are.

Therefore, he had no reason not to believe Xiao Yun.

But he did not help Lin Gangtuan build the kang, but stood next to Xiao Yun.

As people gathered again, Yi Zhonghai sat on a stool, holding an enamel pot in his hand, with a wisp of steam coming out of it.

Liu Haizhong arrived late. He even changed his clothes specially for this general meeting.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, was much more casual. Wearing clothes that were soiled from moving bricks, he sat directly on the chair.

People gathered. Yi Zhonghai cleared his throat and opened his mouth. Before he could speak, Liu Haizhong spoke first.

"This time! The theme of our general meeting is very simple! Let an old man explain it to everyone."

After saying that, Liu Haizhong smiled and looked at Yi Zhonghai.

He always feels comfortable every time he holds a general meeting.

Yi Zhonghai was speechless, but still took over the conversation.

"This time, we are mainly criticizing the Xiao family in the Intermediate Court for deceiving us that we are poor families, but in fact we are rich."

"And the evidence is the carp he ate and the bricks used to build the kang today!"

As he spoke, Yi Zhonghai looked at Xiao Yun.

"Xiao Yun, what do you want to say?"

When Xiao Yun heard his name being called, he straightened his body.

Just now when they went back to get the bench, Xiao Yun carefully checked the original body's memory.

Only then did he realize that all the money that was raised from the last conference had been given to the Jia family, and not a penny had been given to him.

What are you afraid of?

Xiao Yun didn't care about it to begin with, and now that he knew this detail, he became even more fearless.

Even facing Yi Zhonghai and everyone's gaze, he remained calm.

"What do I have to say? I am a poor household and I eat carp, so you are lying to me? You yourself eat half a pound of pig head meat every now and then, but I can't eat fish?"

Xiao Yun did not give Yi Zhonghai any face at all.

What surprised Xiao Yun was that as soon as he finished speaking, the third uncle on the side spoke.

"Xiao Yun, this is not right. According to the usual rules, you and Brother Lao Xiao eat meat every 8-10 days. It was only three days after you ate fish yesterday. I remember it all."

Xiao Yun's eyes gradually turned cold.

He originally thought that the old man Yan Bugui had taken advantage of his meal, and even if he didn't speak up for him, he wouldn't kick him when he was down.

But now it seems that I still underestimated the brutality of this hospital.

After hearing what Yan Bugui said, Xiao Aiguo's face turned pale and he was extremely disappointed.

The decision to come forward and expose Xiao Yun was made by Yan Bugui after much consideration.

Under normal circumstances, the Xiao family's status as a military family made many people afraid to get involved with them easily, including Yan Bugui.

But in the current situation, both masters have left the field. If he doesn't leave, he will probably become the target of public criticism.

Therefore, in order not to become that unsociable old man, Yan Bugui chose to take the risk and stand out.

What's more, this is not a risk. After all, Xiao Aiguo has never done anything as a military dependent.

For a long time, there have even been people who doubted this identity.

Yan Bugui said, "That fish is quite heavy. If you want to buy it, it will cost at least five or six yuan, and there may not be anyone willing to sell it to you!"

"Not only fish, but also two bottles of Xifeng wine! And, and, this grandfather and grandson usually don't like to smoke, but yesterday they opened a pack of Hongmei, which was almost full. This is all money."

Yan Bugui's words seemed to directly confirm that Xiao Yun was lying.

The crowd booed.

But the truth is, Xiao Yun has never lied to anyone.

He was really poor in the past. In order to save his grandfather's life, he tried his best to make his life better, but he could still barely fill his stomach.

Let me ask you, how can a person who earns 37 yuan a month support two people after spending yuan on medicine?

One of them is a young man in his prime, and he does heavy work every day.

Especially now that we are still in difficult times, prices of goods and food are rising.
