Siheyuan: Black and steady Gou Laoliu

Steel rolling mill, workshop 3.

"Ah~Ah~" The depressed Yi Zhonghai sneezed twice, rubbed his nose, and sighed in distress. It seemed that a large dark cloud was covering his head.

He was puzzled: Why was he so unlucky? !

Nothing I wanted to do could be accomplished, and bad things happened one after another, and I couldn't avoid them even if I wanted to.

After coming to work at the factory today, Yi Zhonghai was overwhelmed by romantic scandals and rumors.

The reason is that someone thought that his master was close to his apprentice's beautiful wife, and then the apprentice got drunk and ruined the girl's innocence and had to break off the engagement and marry someone else, but his master was completely unaware of this. There is obviously a big problem here!

Yi Zhonghai was wronged terribly, but there was no way to explain it clearly, and the more he explained, the worse it got.

Yiwanhua was almost worried to death, the kind of worried that made him feel like crying.

What worried him the most was that when these rumors spread back to the compound, what if that stupid woman Jia Zhang believed them and made a fuss? The thought of it was enough to make him feel overwhelmed.

From last night till now, Yi Yinbi has probably sighed more times than in the past month, and even had a few more gray hairs due to worry.

Recalling the last time he was so unlucky, Yi Zhonghai muttered bitterly: "Could it be that Han Li, the disaster star, has returned?!"

Thinking of Han Li, Yi Wanhua was filled with anger and hatred. Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind. Could it be that he and that little bastard from the Han family were destined to be incompatible?

It should be almost true, otherwise he wouldn't be getting more unlucky while the Han family's life would be getting better and better.

After figuring this out, Yi Zhonghai secretly made up his mind: He must bring down the Han family! He must drive the Han family out! He must make that little bastard Han Li lose his reputation!

After holding out until the end of the get off work day, Yi Zhonghai slowly let out a breath. He really didn't want to work in this crappy class for even a second, so he just ran away.

In fact, he was planning to go back first and explain everything to his apprentice and Jia Zhang. Otherwise, when they heard about it from others, they would make a fuss and things would only become more troublesome.

Yi Zhonghai hurried back to the courtyard and unexpectedly found that the people in the courtyard looked at him strangely; but when he asked, the other party was unwilling to say and just evaded the question with some excuse.

In fact, this is not surprising. Now everyone in the courtyard thinks that it is the Jia family that has suffered this disaster, and it is Yi Zhonghai who has not fulfilled his responsibilities as a master;

In the past, everyone envied Jia Dongxu for having a good master, but now everyone thinks that Jia Dongxu is unlucky to have such an unreliable person as his master.

This phenomenon can be described in one sentence: if a good person does a bad thing, all the good things he has done before will be completely negated; but if a bad person does one good thing, all the bad things he has done before can be forgiven.

Yi Zhonghai is considered a good man in the eyes of everyone in the compound. However, this time his apprentice was plotted against and he, as the master, was totally unaware of it. This is enough to prove that he is not qualified to be a master.

As everyone talks and exaggerates, people get the feeling that this old man is not that great.

When he walked to the front yard, Yi Zhonghai subconsciously glanced at the east wing and found nothing unusual.

Just as he was about to hurry home, he heard Han Xiaoxiao's proud and excited voice coming from the ear room: "Sister Yushui, Niqi Milk Candy, Wo Daguo gave me a lot."

Instantly, Yi Zhonghai put on a constipated expression, gritting his teeth and cursing in his heart: "I knew that this little bastard would be up to no good when he came back!"

After taking a deep breath and controlling his facial expression, Yi Wanhua quickened his pace and rushed towards the central courtyard.

Yi Zhonghai felt as if there was a breath of depression stuck in his chest that he couldn't spit out or swallow. He felt extremely uncomfortable and just wanted to go home and have a drink to relieve his sorrow.

But when he was about to reach the door of his house, he suddenly remembered that he had finished the wine last night and there was no more wine in the house.

Yi Wanhua sighed bitterly and was about to go home when she heard Jia Zhang's cold voice behind her: "Master Dongxu, I have something to tell you!"

When Yi Zhonghai looked over, Jia Zhang had already turned around and walked home.

Yi Wanhua frowned unconsciously and asked tentatively: "Is Dongxu back?"

Jia Zhang was a widow, and if a grown man like him got too close to a widow, it would easily lead to gossip.

"came back!"

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Yi Zhonghai actually heard gnashing hatred in Jia Zhang's three short words.

After the two men entered the Jia family one after another, Yi Zhonghai did not see Jia Dongxu after entering the house. When he was wondering, he heard a sobbing sound.

When I looked at Jia Dongxu's bed, I found that Jia Dongxu had his head covered with a quilt and was obviously shivering.

Yi Zhonghai frowned: "What's going on with Dongxu?"

In fact, he knew in his heart that his disciple was most likely sad because of the loss of his beautiful daughter-in-law Qin Huairu.

"Dongxu has been hiding himself in the quilt since he came back. He doesn't say a word and just keeps crying."

Jia Zhang sighed with a distressed look on her face, and suddenly pointed the finger at Yi Zhonghai: "Yi Zhonghai, you have caused my son so much trouble this time!"

Yi Zhonghai immediately put on a black question mark face: "Jia Zhang, how can you say that I am the one who caused Dongxu suffering? What does this have to do with me?"

"How is it not related to you? You and Dongxu were in the same workshop, and Dongxu was set up. As a master, don't you have any responsibility? How do you, Yi Zhonghai, become a master? Is there anyone like you who can be a master?"

Jia Zhang became more and more angry as she spoke, and her saliva sprayed all over Yi Zhonghai's face.

Yi Zhonghai felt bitter in his heart, even bitterer than if he had eaten Coptis chinensis, but the bitterness was really indescribable.

When he got off work yesterday, he specifically reminded his apprentice: Be more careful when making friends and don't hang out with bad people.

But the disciple turned a deaf ear to what his master said, what could he do?

When Yi Zhonghai was thinking about this and that last night, he also considered severing ties with the Jia family, but doing so would destroy the good reputation he had been building, and he had invested a huge amount in the Jia family, so he was somewhat reluctant to withdraw now.

Therefore, he cannot make his relationship with the Jia family too strained now, especially at this extremely sensitive time.

If Jia Zhang found out that he had borrowed money from Qin Huairu and spread rumors, he would not be able to explain himself even if he had a hundred mouths.

Yi Zhonghai knew Jia Zhang's character very well and knew that she must have other purposes in saying these things.

"I do have some responsibility for Dongxu being framed. But now the matter is done, and there is nothing I can do. Just tell me what you think."

"Just admit that you are responsible. Then you will have to pay for all the expenses of my son's wedding!"

"Ah!?" Yi Zhonghai's face was filled with astonishment and disbelief. He was so angry that he really wanted to turn around and leave, but then he thought that he must not break up with the Jia family at this critical moment, and he might need to rely on Jia Dongxu for his retirement in the future.

Thinking of this, Yi Wanhua sighed sadly, nodded helplessly, and said through gritted teeth: "Okay, I'll pay for Dongxu's wedding!"
