The deaf old lady looked at He Yuzhu's shaken expression and sighed in her heart.

Only you know the feeling of loneliness without children. When you are old, you have to rely on others, but others will not give to you for nothing.

At this moment, she could only exchange benefits for He Yuzhu's care.

In the past, she thought He Yuzhu was not greedy for these things, but now it seems that he is not much different.

She secretly hoped that when he really got the house in the future, he would not do something like destroying the bridge after crossing it.

He Yuzhu immediately became excited and said, "I'll go and discuss it with the uncle and see what ideas he has."

"Go ahead." The old lady nodded in response.

He Yuzhu came to Yi Zhonghai's house and happened to see him having dinner. Auntie called him, "Silly Zhu, come here, do you want to see Uncle?"

"Yes, I want to discuss the old lady's matter with the uncle." He Yuzhu replied.

Yi Zhonghai motioned him to sit down and said, "Sit down and talk if you have anything to say."

He Yuzhu sat in front of him and said, "Uncle, the old lady's condition is really bad. We need someone to take care of her."

Yi Zhonghai smiled and asked, "Aren't you taking care of me? Isn't this okay?"

He Yuzhu quickly explained: "I can take care of her at night, but I have to go to work during the day and I'm really too busy."

"That's a problem." Yi Zhonghai thought for a while, and secretly understood that if he wanted to continue to maintain his prestige in the courtyard, he should indeed do something, and the deaf old lady was just the person he could take advantage of.

He Yuzhu saw him thinking, and hurriedly continued: "You think so too, right?"

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "Indeed, she is old and a woman, so it is inconvenient for you to take care of her alone."

Hearing that the uncle understood him, He Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right, if it wasn't inconvenient for the aunt, I wouldn't have come to see you."

Yi Zhonghai raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you looked for other people?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "Yes, but everyone said they don't have time and can't take care of her."

"People in the courtyard are either elderly or have children, so they don't have much time." Yi Zhonghai said meaningfully, "But if we have money, things will be easier."

He Yuzhu got a headache when he heard the word "money". "If I had money, I would have spent it long ago and hired someone to take care of the old lady. Now I have no money, so I am in trouble!"

"Don't worry, I know you are short of money." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.

"You mention this when you know I have no money?" He Yuzhu muttered helplessly.

Yi Zhonghai reminded in a low voice: "You don't have any money, but there are always some people in the yard who have savings."

He Yuzhu was stunned and looked at him with confusion, not understanding the meaning of his words.

Seeing that he didn't react, Yi Zhonghai said directly: "The deaf old lady is an old lady in the yard. She is in trouble now. If everyone has no time to help, donate some money to hire someone to take care of her, is that okay?"

Hearing this, He Yuzhu's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Yes, why didn't I think of that! Uncle, you are really smart!"

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but feel proud, thinking that he had seen a lot of the world, and this kind of thing was nothing. "Since you think it's okay, then go and notify everyone to hold a courtyard meeting tonight."

"Okay, I'll go right away." He Yuzhu responded excitedly, and then walked out to notify the residents of the meeting.

Yi Zhonghai looked at his departing back with a smile in his eyes.

As long as this matter is properly resolved, his reputation will be improved a bit, and people in the yard will naturally listen to him.

Soon, the news spread throughout the yard.

The third uncle Yan Bugui and the third aunt in the front yard were dissatisfied when they heard that a meeting was going to be held.

The third aunt said unhappily: "What's wrong with this old man? Why does he want to have a meeting for no reason?"

Yan Bugui snorted coldly: "He Yuzhu came to inform you, most likely it's about the deaf old lady."

"The third aunt's face suddenly darkened, "What does her matter have to do with us?"

Yan Bugui sneered and said, "Don't worry, we'll know soon."

At the same time, He Yushui also heard the news about the meeting. She didn't want to go at first, but thinking that she might meet Lu Qing, she couldn't suppress her inner anticipation.

She knew that this mentality was not right, but she still couldn't help but want to go and take a look.

Lu Qing was at home at this time and learned about the meeting from Chen Wenhui. He asked in confusion, "Do you know what the meeting is about?"

"I'm not sure," Chen Wenhui shook her head, "but since He Yuzhu came to inform me, I think it's probably related to him."

"He Yuzhu?" He raised his eyebrows.

"It was an old man who proposed it, and He Yuzhu was responsible for the notification." Chen Wenhui added.

Lu Qing narrowed his eyes, feeling somewhat confused. The suddenness of tonight's meeting made him feel a little strange.

The relationship between Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu was once bad due to his own alienation, but unexpectedly, they restored their relationship in a short time and even acted together.

Is it about the deaf old lady?

Thinking about the recent condition of the deaf old lady and the series of events that happened in the yard, he quickly guessed the reason, smiled, and understood in his heart - it turned out that Yi Zhonghai wanted to stand up for the deaf old lady.

It seems that Yi Zhonghai really wants to regain his prestige in the courtyard, otherwise he would have called a meeting without even notifying anyone.

Seeing that he seemed to be thinking about something, Chen Wenhui asked in confusion, "Are you planning to participate?"

Lu Qing smiled slightly and said, "Of course, such a lively occasion must have some good shows to watch. It would be a pity not to go."

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "Then I'll go with you."

"Okay." He nodded slightly.

As night fell, people came to the yard with stools, and the venue gradually became lively.
