Siheyuan: Why are you all here to see me?

Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Fugui were all waiting for Director Wang at Yi Zhonghai's house. Yan Fugui suddenly saw Director Wang hurriedly leaving the Central Courtyard.

Yan Fugui: "Old Yi, Director Wang has come out, but he doesn't seem to have any intention of staying."

Several people hurried out to see where Director Wang was.

The next day, three uncles in charge were called to the street office. This time it was not the neighborhood committee, but the street office. They were questioned separately. After questioning, just like what Director Wang reported, Liu Haizhong was even more open-mouthed and explained Yi Zhonghai's past clearly.

This really pissed off Director Xing, who smashed the cup on the spot. This guy was simply a scum in sheep's clothing, and he couldn't let him off just because he was a level 7 technician. Liu Haizhong also said that Yi Zhonghai didn't teach any apprentices at the steel mill, for fear that teaching his apprentices would starve him to death. Director Xing also called to verify this. Two days later, Director Wang came to the courtyard to hold a meeting of the whole courtyard. Everyone was very surprised. Usually, all matters were conveyed by the old man in charge, but this time the neighborhood committee conveyed it personally, and everyone was present.

Director Wang, "I am here to announce a notice. Yi Zhonghai is morally corrupt, hypocritical, and has the final say. He keeps secrets and uses the banner of mutual help to do good deeds at the expense of others. In fact, he does it for his own benefit and for the sake of the elderly. He uses all means to achieve his goal, destroying the reputation of others, using small favors to buy people's hearts, and in fact, he embezzles the living expenses of He Yuzhu and his sister to achieve his ulterior motives and train candidates for the elderly. This hypocrite, immoral, and bottom-line-less person is not suitable to be the steward of the Siheyuan. The title of Yi Zhonghai as the steward is now revoked. Go to the neighborhood committee to study for a month, clean public toilets for a month, the second uncle Liu Haizhong, puts on airs, acts like an official, beats his two sons for a long time, assists Yi Zhonghai to cover up, pretends to be a good person, I actively cooperate with the street investigation, and occupy the title of the second uncle in charge, go to the neighborhood committee to study for a month, the third uncle Yan Fugui, assists Yi Zhonghai to cover up, is hypocritical, and as a people's teacher, blocks the door for a long time, uses the advantage of his tongue, pesters, and takes advantage of others. Now the title of the third uncle is revoked. Study for a month, you all heard it."

Yi Zhonghai's face turned red from holding back his anger. Suddenly, a mouthful of blood spurted out and he lay straight on the ground. An old lady shouted, "Old Yi, Old Yi, help!"

Director Wang was indifferent and said to the second uncle, "Comrade Liu Haizhong hopes that you can do your job as a manager and serve the 95th Institute wholeheartedly, and don't put on airs."

Liu Haizhong was excited. Did you see that? Director Wang still values ​​me, Liu Haizhong. Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui were both removed, but only my position was still there. This is respect. Liu Haizhong said, "This, that, I will definitely work hard. This, that is the leader's expectations." Director Wang was speechless. It seems that Li Gang was right. It is better to keep such a fool than two calculating ones. These were also what Li Gang said when he delivered vegetables to Director Wang today.

Yan Fugui lowered his head very low. His little trick of blocking the door was exposed today. It turned out that the neighbors had long been disgusted with him blocking the door after work to take advantage of them. He thought he was very smart, but now he has lost face.

Director Wang and Li Gang nodded and left without even looking at Yi Zhonghai. It was not that Director Wang was cruel or had no work ethics. During this period, the feudal remnants, spies, enemy agents, and social cancer had just been cleaned up not long ago, and they had not been cleaned up yet. For example, some half-closed doors and the remnants of gang forces, you, Yi Zhonghai, have brought this upon yourself. You have all been through several special periods. It is impossible for you not to be cruel. It's just a case of vomiting blood, so it's not a big deal at all.

In fact, Director Wang did not announce that he had informed the steel mill of the incident, otherwise Yi Zhonghai would have to complain more. This was also what Li Gang talked about with Director Wang, asking him to pretend to be a good person in the future.

Yi Zhonghai vomited blood, no one helped him, only Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu went to help the aunt to carry Yi Zhonghai into the house. In fact, Yi Zhonghai had already woken up, and he felt better when he saw Jia Dongxu coming to help him. But today, Yi Zhonghai was completely exposed by Director Wang, who told him everything about his thoughts and actions. Is Director Wang so powerful? It seems that people who come from military officers are not simple. Yi Zhonghai was still angry with the old lady. There was such a big commotion in the courtyard, but you old lady was still pretending to be deaf. If it weren't for that little thing, he would have turned against her tomorrow.

The people in the hospital were really enlightened today. Director Wang finally revealed the true colors of these uncles. Who of them didn't know what kind of people these uncles were? They had all experienced history and lived to this day. If they didn't have some vision, they could not have lived to this day and lived in a courtyard house. It was just that they didn't want to cause trouble and just wanted to live their own lives. Secondly, it was their status. Yi Zhonghai was a seventh-level fitter, Liu Haizhong was a sixth-level blacksmith, and even Yan Fugui was a teacher. What were they? They were not even fourth or fifth levels. How could they not be obedient?

The eldest brother in the courtyard, Sha Zhu, Xu Damao, Li Gang, and Liu Guangtian were all smoking and not talking. Today, the past of these three uncles was laid out on the table for everyone to see clearly.

Xu Damao "Shazhu, it turns out that you are Yi Zhonghai's second-in-command for the elderly. Haha, I was saying that Yi Zhonghai would smooth things over and side with you whenever you hit me. It turns out that he wanted you to be grateful to him. Haha, this old guy has a really vicious mind. Oh, by the way, Shazhu, you have a lot of money now. You always hit me in the past. This time, don't you have to get some good wine and food to comfort me?"

Sha Zhu also felt guilty, "What's the big deal? You have good food and good wine every day, what else do you want to eat?"

Xu Damao: "You can eat good food and wine often, but they are not yours. They belong to Li Gang. What does it have to do with you?"

Li Gang suddenly thought of a dish, but he knew that it was not available yet.

Li Gang "Shazhu, how about I teach you a dish tomorrow? You need star anise, pepper, Sichuan pepper, dried chili pepper, pickled cabbage, preferably Sichuan pickles, and most importantly fish, you can still get fish there now."

When Sha Zhu heard there were new dishes, he thought they were just what he wanted. "I have all the seasonings you mentioned. I can also get kimchi. As for the fish, there are fish in Houhai, but I haven't seen anyone catch a big one."

Li Gang: "Okay, let's go fishing tomorrow. Damao, will you go to the countryside tomorrow? If you go to the countryside, you won't be able to eat this new dish. It's called pickled fish."

Xu Damao: "Why go to the countryside? Who would go to the movies in the middle of winter?"

The next day, Li Gang, Xu Damao, and Liu Guangtian bought fishing gear and went to Houhai. Last night, Li Gang mixed some sweet potato cubes with the spiritual lake water. He cut the sweet potatoes into small cubes the size of mung beans.

Several people began to knock on the ice hole in turn. Without a chisel, they had to use an axe to slowly break the ice. After more than half an hour, they finally split a hole in the ice that was more than half a meter wide. Li Gang picked up the fishing rod and tied three fish hooks on it. Xu Damao saw that Li Gang only hung some sweet potatoes on the fish hooks and laughed, "Is this going to work?" Li Gang said nothing and concentrated on fishing.

Suddenly, the hand holding the fishing rod felt a vibration. Li Gang pulled the fishing rod back by feeling. Xu Damao also saw it and hurried over to guard the hole with a scoop net. A big fish head leaked out of the water. Xu Damao quickly scooped up the fish with a scoop net. Liu Guangtian also started to catch it. Wow, this fish weighed at least ten kilograms. All things are difficult at the beginning. After this good start, it was easy and enjoyable. In an hour, the smallest one was six or seven kilograms, and the largest one was nearly twenty kilograms. There were twenty-four big and small fish. People who were watching came to ask if he would sell them. Xu Damao was quick-witted and said that he would not sell them but exchange them. Any ticket would do.

Xu Damao began bargaining for the fish.

Finally, the two largest groups of three were left and exchanged for a large number of tickets and went home.

Sha Zhu hadn't come back yet, so the group had a simple meal and then drank tea and chatted at home. At about 2 p.m., Sha Zhu came back, carrying a bag, and went to the courtyard.

Li Gang instructed Sha Zhu according to the method on the Internet in later generations. You know what, Sha Zhu understood it immediately. The last spoonful of oil was poured on the fish and the spicy taste came out immediately. Several people began to feast on it. It turned out that Yu Li, Ding Qiuxia, He Yushui, and Li Fang liked this pickled fish the most.

Two days later, Sha Zhu was very interested in this dish and made some improvements. The chef is worthy of being a chef. The taste is comparable to the pickled fish in a square in the future.

Yi Zhonghai's matter was not over yet. He thought it was all right. Unexpectedly, Director Wang reported his matter to the steel mill. The steel mill held a meeting to discuss the matter of Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong. As many people left this year to support the construction of the Third Front, one of the eighth-level workers also left. Now there is only one eighth-level worker left in the factory. Although some new people were recruited, they were all newcomers. Considering that Yi Zhonghai was a seventh-level worker and Liu Haizhong was a sixth-level worker, it was finally decided that Yi Zhonghai would be demoted to a fifth-level worker and would not be evaluated for three years. Liu Haizhong would not be demoted, but one month's salary would be deducted as a punishment.

Liu Haizhong knew that he had a month's salary deducted, and he hated Yi Zhonghai even more. He planned to go back to hold a meeting to criticize him, but he didn't think that you were also on the list of punishments. Besides, Director Wang had said in the neighborhood committee that meetings should not be held without important matters. Showing your presence and showing off your power, criticizing, donating, etc., are not allowed. This was all Li Gang's advance vaccination for Director Wang to prevent him from donating to the Jia family in the future. Liu Haizhong was very dissatisfied and could not hold a meeting to criticize Yi Zhonghai, which made him very angry. He went home to eat scrambled eggs and drink a little wine, and wanted to beat the children to vent his anger, but Director Wang had also warned him that beating children was not allowed. This made Liu Haizhong feel very powerless and had no place to vent. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. In the end, he actually started a second spring with Second Aunt, using Second Aunt as a venting point, and performed bravely. The next day, Second Aunt was beaming.

Yan Fugui was not much better off. Director Wang also informed the school. Originally, Yan Fugui had the hope of being promoted to the head of the school year due to his teaching experience, but now he has lost that position and his salary has been deducted for one month. This made Yan Fugui very sad and his mouth was full of bubbles. Deducting his salary was more painful than killing him.
