Siheyuan: The strongest point adding system is bound at the beginning

Chapter 25: A Small Incident Before the Meeting

As Yan Bugui spoke, he took Liu Ping'an's hand and walked towards the central courtyard. The usually empty central courtyard was now filled with densely packed people. Liu Ping'an took a rough look and saw about thirty to fifty people, most of whom were men.

Although it has been several years since the liberation, the status of women in the family may not be as high as that of their sons. This concept cannot be changed in a short time. New-age women like Director Wang of the Street Office are rare. Maybe there are not many like her in the huge city of Beijing at this time. Only women who have followed our army to the present can completely break the shackles of the old era!

Just like the general meeting of the No. 95 compound today, the representatives from each family are all men from their own family, the backbone of a family. If it weren't for the women from the middle courtyard who came out to join in the fun, except for the children who came here to watch the fun, it would really be all bald-Qiang. It happened to be almost dinner time, and the women were busy preparing dinner at home.

However, the general meeting of Courtyard 95 was made very grand by this old man Yi Zhonghai. It was just like what was shown in the TV series. There was a square table in the middle, and three old men each had a stool. Yi Zhonghai sat in the middle, and Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong sat on his left and right. It was quite a grand scene.

Liu Ping'an found a corner to stand in. He was pulled here by Yan Bugui, and he didn't have time to bring a stool. He didn't know that a whole hospital meeting would be held today, and he didn't have time to buy peanuts and melon seeds. He could only stand alone on the edge, waiting with others for the people from the street office to convey instructions.

Just at this moment, he heard someone calling his name in the north corner. He looked closely and saw that it was Xu Damao.

Looking at Xu Damao sitting on the long bench, he raised one hand to greet me and pointed to the empty side of the bench with the other hand, as if inviting me to sit over there.

Liu Ping'an nodded to Xu Damao and walked over to him, then sat down next to Xu Damao.

The two of them exchanged in low voices, speculating on the national policies that the subdistrict office would promote this time. It was like students whispering to each other in class. However, this was not a classroom, and there was no teacher, so the two of them could talk openly.

Then Xu Damao said to Liu Ping'an, "There must be some major policy to be implemented this time. I just heard from the staff of the Street Office that Director Wang is in another courtyard now and will be here soon. He has been running around all afternoon today, and our courtyard is the last stop."

"At the beginning of this year, when the country issued the second set of RMB, Director Wang went from courtyard to courtyard like this. This must be a big deal. However, I just came back from showing a movie in the countryside, so I don't know the specific details yet, but it is definitely a big deal."

Liu Ping'an nodded to Xu Damao and said, "I just came back from the street office. The policy to be promoted this time is indeed a big deal."

The two were talking in the basement when they heard the sound of a senior Yi Zhonghai putting a cup of tea heavily on the table. Immediately, the people who came to the meeting in the middle courtyard stopped whispering. It felt like the whole world was quiet in an instant.

Then Yi Zhonghai asked the second uncle Liu Haizhong who turned his head to the backyard and the third uncle Yan Bugui who turned to the front yard, "Are all the residents in the backyard/front yard here?"

Then he heard the second and third uncles respond in unison: "They are all due." He nodded with satisfaction, then picked up the enamel cup, glanced at the crowd gathered in the middle courtyard and asked loudly: "Where is He Yuzhu?"

Everyone in the yard turned their heads to look for him, but they couldn't find him.

Finally, the third uncle Yan Bugui lowered his head and thought for a while before saying, "Sizhu took his sister out at noon, and I haven't seen him come back yet. He may still be outside."

Yi Zhonghai frowned upon hearing this, and then said to everyone, "Don't worry about Shazhu for now. Director Wang will come to promote the new policy to everyone in a while. Everyone knows this, so I won't say much. Before that, let me introduce you to Liu Ping'an, the new resident who moved into our front yard, and also tell you about a very bad thing that happened in the front yard this morning."

Liu Ping'an's eye twitched when he heard Yi Zhonghai's words, but it was his right eye.

I thought to myself, this is not good, Shazhu is not here now, this old guy is coming for me.

Without waiting for Lao Deng to continue, he immediately stood up and clasped his fists towards everyone in the courtyard and said, "Everyone, I am Liu Ping'an, the new resident in the front yard. I have been in this city for almost a week. I am lucky to live in the same courtyard with you all from now on. If you have any problems in the future, just let me know. If there is anything I can help with, I will do my best. Please also take care of me."

"I made an appointment with Director Wang to go to the Street Office this morning, but I just came back. Then I heard Uncle San say that the Intermediate Court was holding a meeting to publicize the new policy. I just rushed here with Uncle San, and I didn't even bring a stool. Fortunately, Brother Damao was righteous and gave me a seat, so I didn't have to stand on the side."

Not wanting to clash with Yi Zhonghai at this conference and ruin his reputation in the compound, Liu Ping'an took the initiative and blocked all the subsequent words Yi Zhonghai might say against him, making Old Deng so angry that his face turned a little black.

I shouted in my heart, "Wow!" This time we have someone with some experience, he is Director Wang and Yan Bugui's. I don't know how powerful this Liu Ping'an is yet. We will play slowly after I figure out your background.

After Liu Ping'an finished speaking, he was silent for a while, reorganized his words, and planned to fire at He Yuzhu.

After a while, he said, "Our No. 95 Courtyard won the Advanced Courtyard this year because of the traditional virtue of respecting the old and loving the young. We should not just think about ourselves. Just like Liu Ping'an said just now, if there is anything that needs help among neighbors, everyone who is able should help, instead of being selfish and sitting back and doing nothing."

After saying that, he looked at Liu Ping'an deeply. Liu Ping'an looked back at him fearlessly. After a while, Yi Zhonghai turned his head and said, "It's Sha Zhu from the middle courtyard. This morning, the Jia Zhang family from the middle courtyard transported grain from their own farm. Sha Zhu happened to pass by at this time, and he was unwilling to help unload the things and just turned around and left."

"This is a very bad example for our compound. Our compound still needs to maintain the title of advanced compound this year. Everyone, tell me whether this kind of trend can be encouraged."

After that, he did not forget to mobilize everyone's emotions. This old Deng was very bad. The title of advanced courtyard was gone, and the first person everyone blamed was He Yuzhu. If he continued to maintain it, he could take advantage of the overwhelming reputation and the goodwill of the whole courtyard, and consolidate his position. And he didn't have to pay a penny, the reward was prepared by the street office every year.

When you give out rewards to yourself, you can also increase your favorability.
