Siheyuan: With the system in hand, the world is mine

Chapter 111 Yi Zhonghai Makes the Decision

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath, mustered up his courage and stepped forward. He stared at the people who were beating Yan Bugui, and shouted with dignity and intimidation: "Do you have any law? You actually came to our yard to beat people in broad daylight. Stop it now, or I will call the police."

After hearing the words "call the police", the people finally stopped what they were doing, but one person asked nonchalantly, "Who do you think you are? How dare you meddle in other people's business?"

Yi Zhonghai straightened his chest and answered confidently: "I am the eldest uncle of this courtyard and I am responsible for managing the affairs here."

After hearing this, the man's eyes flashed with a sly light, and then he asked in a mocking tone: "Oh, so you are the boss of this yard! It seems that you have to intervene in this matter."

Yi Zhonghai mistakenly thought that the other party had given in, so he said proudly: "This incident happened in our yard, and as an uncle, I naturally have the responsibility to deal with it."

The man raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and then said: "Since you said so, then you should pay the compensation for Yan Bugui. He is unwilling to pay anyway." After saying that, he stared at Yi Zhonghai as if he was a fool.

"What compensation? I told you to stop fighting, why do you want me to pay compensation?" Yi Zhonghai said with a confused look on his face.

"You are teasing us, right? Didn't you say you wanted to take care of this matter? Now you are unwilling to pay for it." The man was immediately unhappy when he heard Yi Zhonghai say this, and looked at Yi Zhonghai with anger on his face. He felt that Yi Zhonghai was teasing them on purpose, and he clearly said that he would take care of this matter, but he was unwilling to pay for it.

Looking at the expressions of the few people, Yi Zhonghai realized belatedly that he didn't seem to know the whole story, so he rashly said he wanted to meddle in other people's business. Now he couldn't clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River. He secretly complained in his heart, but still pretended to be calm and said, "Wait a moment, I'll ask what's going on."

"Fuck, what the hell, you come out to meddle in other people's business when you don't know anything." The man said disdainfully. He was obviously very dissatisfied with Yi Zhonghai's attitude, thinking that he was a meddler. Yi Zhonghai pretended not to hear him, turned around and looked at the third aunt and asked, "Third aunt, why was Old Yan beaten?"

When the third aunt heard this, she stammered and couldn't say a word for a long time. Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he thought to himself: "I just didn't want to get involved in this matter, but now I'm using this as a excuse?" So he pretended to be angry and said: "Forget it, I can't do anything about it. Just call the police!" After that, he walked towards home with an angry face.

As Yi Zhonghai walked, he thought to himself: "This Old Yan, how could he offend such a person? But it's good, this way, I don't have to get involved in this matter anymore." At this time, the people around were still talking about it. Knowing that this was a mess, they obviously didn't want to get involved in it.

Just when Yi Zhonghai was secretly happy to get rid of the mess, the third aunt suddenly shouted: "No... You can't call the police. If you call the police, Old Yan will be finished." Then she quickly stepped forward, grabbed Yi Zhonghai and said in tears: "Uncle, you can't leave! I said... Is that not enough?"

Yi Zhonghai secretly hated why they didn't just run away, but had to walk so slowly. However, he could only take things one step at a time, and then listened to the third aunt's words expressionlessly. "After Lao Yan was fired, everyone knew about Lao Yan's situation, so no one wanted to do odd jobs, so he picked up some scraps to sell, but how could that little money support our family? We had no meals every day and were often hungry. Today, Lao Yan couldn't bear it anymore, so he went to get something and was caught by them, so they chased him to the yard." After saying this, the third aunt started to cry again.

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai knew that this matter was difficult to handle, and he wanted to slap himself twice. If he hadn't been so quick-witted, he wouldn't have bothered with this matter. Then he complained to the third aunt: "Third aunt, how can you let me handle this matter now? If the other party calls the police, I will be beaten in vain, and I will have to pay compensation."

When the third aunt heard this, she felt dizzy and swayed. If Yi Zhonghai hadn't been quick, she would have fallen to the ground. Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai asked, "Third aunt, are you okay?"

Hearing this, the third aunt slowly came back to her senses, and then she pulled Yi Zhonghai's arm and begged, "Uncle, you must have a way, right? Please save our old Yan! He has been beaten badly, and he can't go to jail again, otherwise how can our family live!"

"Are you done yet? How do you want to deal with this matter? If you don't pay us, we will call the police." Looking at the three aunts crying, the others became a little impatient and asked anxiously.

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai frowned and felt very irritated, but he still suppressed his anger. He then glanced at the people in the yard and found that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes, which made him feel very uncomfortable. He knew that if this matter could not be properly resolved, it would not only affect his prestige, but he would also be blamed by the street office for poor management.

So Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath, tried to keep himself calm, and then said to those people: "How do you want to compensate?"

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, those people smiled smugly. One of them said, "We don't ask for much. Fifty is enough, and the rest will be used as Yan Bugui's medical expenses." Yi Zhonghai was stunned when he heard such an exaggerated compensation request. He stared at those people with wide eyes in disbelief.

Then Yi Zhonghai's eyes unconsciously turned to the third aunt, and asked her in a questioning tone: "How much stuff did Old Yan take from others? Why do you want to pay so much?"

The third auntie got anxious when she heard this, and said angrily: "You are asking for too much! Old Yan only took some cornmeal and eggs, and you broke the eggs, why do you want fifty yuan? You are really bullying me."

"Hehe...hehe...this is the amount of compensation. If you don't pay, call the police. I'm too lazy to waste time talking to you." The man said as if he had the upper hand over the aunt.

The third auntie immediately became timid when she heard this. She looked at Yi Zhonghai helplessly and said, "Uncle, we really don't have the money to pay. Please help us!"

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai comforted the three aunts and looked at them with a good intention, saying, "The compensation you are asking for is too outrageous. Even if we call the police and get Old Yan arrested, what will happen? He will be detained for a month at most, and you will be compensated a few dollars at most. But you will also be punished for beating people, don't you agree?"
