The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Soon, everyone arrived at the Intermediate Court. After all, the director of the subdistrict office was holding the meeting in person, so of course everyone had to arrive on time.

Liu Minghui is no exception. Although they seem to be at the same level, they are afraid of comparison in everything.

The director of the subdistrict office is in charge of more than a hundred courtyard houses in Nanluoguxiang, and manages an unknown number of residents. He is not comparable to the deputy director who has only three or five people under him.

So even if he became the deputy director, Liu Minghui had to be humble and not put on airs. When he saw Director Shen, he greeted him with a smile.

"Good evening, Director Shen. You've come to our hospital so late. You must be very thankful for your hard work."

When Director Shen saw that it was Liu Minghui, he immediately smiled and said, "We are all serving the people, it's not hard."

"Director Liu, it seems that you are also the manager of Yard 95."

Director Shen seemed to have thought of something and said jokingly.

Upon hearing this, Liu Minghui immediately revealed an awkward smile.

"Director Shen, I am just taking up the title. I am so young, how can I let people call me uncle? It is so embarrassing."

Director Shen and the two street office staff also smiled when they heard this.

Who made Liu Minghui so young? Logically, the position of manager is usually chosen by older and more respected people.

Liu Minghui was just an accident. It was Director Wang's fault for not finding a suitable candidate at the beginning.

At this time Liu Haizhong also came over.

"Good evening, Director Shen. Everyone is here, waiting for you to speak."

After listening to this, Director Shen looked around and saw that many people had indeed come. He immediately nodded with satisfaction.

"But it seems that some people haven't come yet."

After looking around and not finding the deaf old lady, Director Shen looked at Liu Haizhong in an unfriendly tone and asked.

"I remember the deaf old lady in the backyard. No one notified her."

Liu Haizhong's tone paused. He didn't know why she wanted to look for the deaf old lady. In the past, the deaf old lady would not attend meetings, so Liu Haizhong didn't arrange for anyone to go and tell her today.

"Hey, here, I'm going to call the old lady over now."

Liu Haizhong spoke quickly and ran to the backyard.

"No need, old lady. I can do it myself."

The deaf old lady walked over the door connecting the backyard to the middle yard with her crutches. She came over on her own without waiting for Liu Haizhong to notify her.

"Oh, old lady, please slow down, I'll help you."

Seeing this, Liu Haizhong hurriedly supported the deaf old lady and walked step by step to the center of the yard.

In the crowd, Jia Zhang saw her and muttered, "Why is this damn old woman here? It must be up to no good."

If we were to say who Jia Zhang hated the most in the courtyard, the deaf old lady would definitely be ranked first, because the deaf old lady loved hitting her with the cane the most.

Jia Zhang's words were spoken in a very low voice, and only Qin Huairu, who was sitting right next to her, heard a little bit, so it didn't cause any ripples.

When Director Shen saw everyone had arrived, he smiled and said, "Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting."

As he spoke, Director Shen walked to He Yuzhu's house, stood on the steps at the door, and started talking to the more than a hundred people below.

"Today, I have nothing else to do. It's just that the old deaf lady who is a five-guarantee household in our courtyard came to our street office and said that no one is taking care of her. How can this be allowed? Respecting the elderly and loving the young is our traditional virtue, so this time I came to solve the old lady's problem."

As soon as Director Shen finished speaking, many people turned their eyes towards the direction of the Yi family, where stood Yi Zhonghai, Chen Xiulan who was holding Yi Ping'an. Yi Zhonghai did not show any embarrassed expression, but Chen Xiulan looked a little unnatural.

Everyone's meaning was very clear, that is, before, Yi Zhonghai's family was responsible for the daily life of the deaf old lady. Now that this situation has occurred, of course everyone wants to see what Yi Zhonghai says.

Liu Haizhong had the same idea. Before Director Shen finished speaking, he looked at Yi Zhonghai and asked, "Old Yi, your family was taking care of the old lady before. What do you think of the current situation?"

Liu Haizhong has always been unhappy with Yi Zhonghai, and now he is eager to throw some dirty water on Yi Zhonghai.

As a result, Yi Zhonghai said calmly: "Don't come to me with this problem. It was a task assigned by the street office. As an old man, I must take the lead."

"I am no longer a grandfather, and I have told Director Wang that I cannot take care of the old lady at the same time. Director Wang also knows this."

After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Liu Haizhong was suddenly speechless.

How else can one say this? One has to know that it was he who got the position of Yi Zhonghai's uncle, which means that the job of taking care of the deaf old lady will fall on him.

After listening to what Yi Zhonghai said, although everyone felt a little disgusted with him, they nodded in agreement on the surface. After all, it is true that one should not do what is not within one's jurisdiction. Yi Zhonghai has children to raise, so how could he have so much time to take care of an unrelated elderly person?

"Since you have accepted this, you must be responsible to the end. You can't give up halfway."

Liu Haizhong wanted to say something, but Yi Zhonghai pretended not to hear him and ignored him.

Director Shen was watching Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai talking. She felt helpless after listening to them and had a bad impression of both of them.

Now Yi Zhonghai no longer hides himself and no longer maintains his image as the moral supreme being. It seems that this is the case even after he was blocked in the cellar.

So when Liu Haizhong said this in front of others, he looked expressionless and didn't care at all.

"Okay, Liu Haizhong, stop talking. Let's discuss first who will take care of the old lady's life from now on."

In the end, it was Director Shen who interrupted Liu Haizhong's speech and brought the topic back to the main point.

When Liu Haizhong heard this, he suddenly became quiet.

If it was something else, Liu Haizhong would have jumped up to talk, but Liu Haizhong was not going to take this matter into his own hands, so he just stood aside and watched without saying a word.

Director Shen shook his head upon seeing this, knowing that he could not count on Liu Haizhong, so he turned his gaze to Yan Bugui on the other side.

"Teacher Yan, why don't you consider it? You know, the street office will give you five yuan every month as a subsidy for taking care of the old lady."

Yan Bugui was immediately moved when he heard this. Just when he was about to say something, the three aunts beside him pulled him aside and winked at him.

Yan Bugui shuddered when he saw this and immediately came to his senses.

You know, taking care of a deaf old lady is not an easy job. When Chen Xiu Lan was in charge before, not to mention cooking and housework, even the chamber pot needed Chen Xiu Lan to empty it. Of course, the third aunt didn't want to take this job.

You know, she is very busy at home every day. If she has to deal with such a thing, she will be exhausted.
