Siheyuan: Separate from the beginning and live with my sister

Fortunately, the weather now is not too cold. If it were the coldest time of the year, people would be frozen to death after waiting for half a day.

Everyone in the courtyard was looking forward to He Lin's arrival, but Section Chief He just glanced at them and went home without looking back.

Everyone in the hospital was dumbfounded.

When Xu Damao saw He Lin coming back, he followed He Lin and quietly told He Lin everything that had happened today.

He Lin knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. Well, he had happened to be at this famous donation event in Siheyuan, so he had to settle the matter with both the principal and the interest.

Yi Zhonghai lost his patience over there, and the second uncle Liu Haizhong also felt that He Lin was too disrespectful. It was his first time to preside over a meeting of the whole institute, so how could he not take bean buns as dry food?

With the unanimous decision of the first and second uncles, the third uncle Yan Bugui went to He Lin's house to call him out to attend the meeting.

Yan Bugui's eyes twitched. You two old foxes asked me to get into trouble, but it's a pity that I have to take advantage of others and eat their food. For the sake of 5 kilograms of flour, the third uncle also tried his best.

He Lin, are you at home? Our hospital is holding a general meeting today, so come and join us.

no response?

Yan Bugui went forward and knocked on the door again, but before his hand touched the door, it opened.

He Lin walked out calmly, holding a small stool in one hand and a handful of melon seeds in the other.

"Hey, Third Uncle, why are you so flustered? I'm just going home to prepare."

Yan Bugui thought, you just prepare the melon seeds, but fortunately we have invited Master He here, so nothing else matters.

The Third Master will start with his opening remarks. Today, we are holding a meeting of the entire hospital to announce something important...

The respected Second Uncle will now give a speech.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned pale and blue, thinking that in the past it was the respected uncle who spoke. He would wait until he was reinstated and then restore his prestige.

The second uncle's bangs captured the momentum very well, but unfortunately his level was insufficient and his knowledge was limited, so he huffed and puffed for a long time without getting to the point.

Jia Zhang, who was standing nearby, couldn't hold it in any longer and said, "Second Uncle, if you can't do it, just stop talking. I called everyone here today to donate money to my Jia family. Why are you going through so much trouble? Just donate the money quickly."

As she spoke, Jia Zhang took a large box and placed it on the Eight Immortals Table, waiting for the pie to fall from the sky.

Although Qin Huairu had just given birth, since it was a matter concerning her own family, she still managed to get through it.

Sure enough, when he saw his silly mother-in-law doing something weird, he quickly grabbed her.

Liu Haizhong looked a little embarrassed, and Yi Zhonghai quickly took over the conversation.

Everyone thanks Er Daye for his wonderful explanation. Let me add a few words.

In fact, everyone knows that Dongxu just got into trouble, there is a new addition to the family, and Qin Huairu and her sister-in-law have no income. They can't make ends meet with this back and forth life for long.

We invited everyone here today because we hope that when one side is in trouble, all sides will come to its aid. The young and old men in our courtyard, those who have money can donate money, and those who have strength can donate manpower to help the Jia family with Dongxu's funeral. We are also doing good deeds and praying for blessings for our descendants. The whole Jia family will remember your kindness.

Yi Zhonghai was really good at what he did. He used all sorts of twisted logic to describe the Jia family as being in great difficulty and misery. It was hard for anyone to refuse to help them, both morally and logically.

Then an old man slapped a big black ten on the table, and today I will take the lead and throw out some ideas.

Then the second uncle also took a photo of a big black ten, and the third uncle Yan Bugui put in 5 yuan with shaking hands. Although it was given by Lao Yi, he still felt painful to see it go out of his hands.

Sha Zhu followed closely behind with another big black ten.

The donation scene today was quite grand. Everyone in the hospital was looking at the big black tens one after another, and they really couldn't afford to pay a few cents.

Some families who were a little better off also took out one or two yuan and handed it over with a heavy heart.

"Ouch, my stomach aches. I ate something bad at noon. Excuse me, uncles. I'll be back soon.

When it was almost Xu Damao's turn, he really didn't want to donate money to the Jia family, so he pretended to have a stomachache, shouted loudly, and went straight to the toilet.

Good job, this kid, he can think of a clever idea in a hurry. He Lin laughed as he looked at Xu Damao who was running away.

Everyone had almost donated, and the first and second uncles and everyone else looked at He Lin.

"He Lin, you are the only cadre in the hospital with a high salary. Shouldn't you donate 10 or 20 yuan as a token of your appreciation?" An old man named Yi Zhonghai, relying on his large numbers, was the first to fire.

"Oh? Is there any law or regulation that requires cadres to donate money? And you're just donating 10 or 20 yuan. You're so shameless. Don't you know that 10 yuan is enough for two people's food for a month?"

"Everyone else has donated, why don't you donate?" The second uncle couldn't give any other reason. He just believed that since everyone else has donated, you must donate too, and he kept pestering He Lin.

The third uncle Yan Bugui was as steady as an old dog. He didn't say a word. He said, "I'm here to earn money. It has nothing to do with me."

"Okay, let's sort it out today. What is the situation of the Jia family? Should we donate money to the Jia family?"

Let’s say the Jia family had 3 adults and 2 children. Jia Dongxu was a second-level worker, earning 38 yuan a month.

The third uncle's family has 2 adults and 4 children.

In terms of salary, the third uncle's salary as a teacher is not as high as Jia Dongxu's. In terms of number of people, the Yan family has one more person. In terms of age, the children of the Yan family are older than those of the Jia family, and they eat more. If the Yan family can survive, why can't his Jia family? Didn't the money we donated before get fed to the dogs?

What's more, some families in our courtyard don't even have a formal employee and have to rely on odd jobs to make a living. Isn't that even more difficult?

He Lin's words were well-reasoned and resonated with people immediately. Yes, his family was not much better than the Jia family, so why should he donate money to them.

Yi Zhonghai quickly retorted when he saw that the situation was not right, "Dongxu is already dead, where does the salary come from? We are donating money now to the Jia family for funeral ceremonies. You, He Lin, can't go against the dead."

What the old man said was really mean. Who the hell would go against the dead?

"Okay, Yi Zhonghai, let's not talk about the past. Even if Jia Dongxu is dead now, everyone knows that the steel mill has given a pension and an additional 50 yuan for funeral expenses. Isn't this enough for his family to handle the matter?"

"The pension is for my coffin money, no one can touch it. The remaining 50 yuan needs to be used for my daughter-in-law's health, and Banggeng also needs to pay tuition. These are all places to spend money. The only thing missing is the money for the funeral." Jia Zhang was very protective of her food, and it was impossible for her to take out the money she had earned.

Everyone in the yard understood. Well, all of Jia's money is useful, so it turns out that only our money is useless and is waiting to be donated to your family.

Why? Our family can barely make ends meet, and you took the pension and funeral expenses, but you're not willing to give a penny. And you even ask us to make donations. Is this unfair?

Yes, how come we are just short of money for the funeral? What’s the point of doing such a trivial thing without money? It’s going to be cremated anyway, so just scattering the remains in the Yongding River is no simpler than anything else.

The people around were very angry and said all kinds of nasty things, but they just refused to donate to the Jia family anymore.

Seeing that the heat had reached a point, He Lin poured in another big wave.

"Neighbors in the courtyard, we must take back our money. We can't let the Jia family get away with it and let some people get a bad reputation."
