Chapter 126

Half an hour passed quickly.

Everyone gathered at the meeting place.

In the past, when holding a meeting, the three elders sat at an Eight Immortals table; Yi Zhonghai faced everyone, and Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui were on the sides.

Today was different.

All three elders were standing.

Behind the Eight Immortals table sat Wang Zhuren with a gloomy face.

The atmosphere at the scene was very oppressive.

Everyone could see that Wang Zhuren was very angry, and the consequences were very serious.

"Everyone be quiet, the meeting is starting; please let Wang Zhuren speak."

Yi Zhonghai took the lead in applauding.

Liu Haizhong felt a pang of regret; why hadn't he thought of helping Wang Zhuren open the meeting?

The opportunity was snatched by Yi Zhonghai.

"Today's matter, you three elders all experienced it personally."

"I want to hear your views; Yi Zhonghai, you are the First Elder of the Sihe Academy, start with you!"

Wang Zhuren called Yi Zhonghai over.

Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up.

This was Wang Zhuren's importance to him.

Cough, cough, cough!

Yi Zhonghai coughed twice and looked at everyone with a smile.

"Wang Zhuren asked me to speak first, so I will say a few words and express my views."

"We all live in one Sihe Academy, a big family; as a big family, what is the most important thing?"

"It is harmony, it is unity!"

"Wan Ping'an, as a member of the big family, should contribute to the unity and harmony of the family."

"He has six acres of land, knows how to farm, and the tomatoes and pumpkins he grows are very good."

"As a member of the big family, he should contribute them."

"But what did he do?"

"Sell at a high price!"

"When a neighbor takes one to taste, he reports it to the police; he is destroying unity, and I think he should be criticized and his serious mistakes corrected."

"..."

Yi Zhonghai talked endlessly.

At first glance, it seemed to make some sense.

He didn't notice that Wang Zhuren's face was getting uglier and uglier.

Bang!

Before Yi Zhonghai could finish, Wang Zhuren slapped the table.

"Enough, Yi Zhonghai, get lost to the side and stand still!"

Wang Zhuren didn't want to let Yi Zhonghai continue.

The more he spoke, the more outrageous it became.

"Liu Haizhong, Yan Fugui, do you have any different views?"

Wang Zhuren stared at the two.

Both shook their heads.

They couldn't figure out what Wang Zhuren meant?

"You make me too disappointed."

"Unity and harmony are important, but they cannot be built on the basis of not distinguishing between black and white, right and wrong."

Wang Zhuren's expression was cold.

Yi Zhonghai's cold sweat broke out.

"You three elders, no matter what you do, you must first distinguish between right and wrong, and work on that basis."

"If you don't distinguish between right and wrong, what are you three elders doing?"

Wang Zhuren's tone was very heavy.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui reacted.

"Wan Ping'an knows how to farm; the tomatoes and pumpkins he grows, no matter how many there are, are his personal fruits of labor."

"What power do you have to divide them?"

"He shares some with you, that's sentiment!"

"Not sharing with you, that's duty!"

"Whether he shares or not, there is no mistake; just like you, Yi Zhonghai, your salary is very high; are you willing to share it with others?"

Wang Zhuren questioned, staring at Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai shook his head.

He wanted to nod, but he really didn't dare to nod.

He was afraid that if he nodded, Wang Zhuren would really divide his salary.

What he was best at, what he liked most, was being generous with others' things, not generously dividing his own things.

"Ping'an, come to the front!"

After criticizing Yi Zhonghai, Wang Zhuren called Wan Ping'an out.

"Ping'an, I apologize to you."

"I was too impatient just now and didn't figure out the process of the matter, so I criticized you for not knowing how to respect the old; it was my fault!"

Wang Zhuren apologized to Wan Ping'an.

Everyone was stunned.

Wang Zhuren apologized too?

Then there was thunderous applause; Wang Zhuren was a fair and just person; if she made a mistake, she would also criticize herself without hesitation.

Yi Zhonghai was very panicked.

"Wang Zhuren apologized, so should I apologize too?"

"If I apologize to Wan Ping'an, my face will be lost, and my prestige will be greatly reduced; how can I manage the Sihe Academy in the future?"

"If I don't apologize, will Wang Zhuren agree?"

Yi Zhonghai was very conflicted.

His heart was very uneasy.

He looked at Deaf Old Lady for help.

"Deaf Old Lady, come over, you also made a mistake."

"You are old, so I won't criticize you, and I won't pursue your responsibility, but you must say 'I'm sorry' to Wan Ping'an!"

"Wan Ping'an is right; you cannot be unable to distinguish right from wrong just because you are old."

Wang Zhuren stared at Deaf Old Lady.

Everyone's gaze was focused on Deaf Old Lady.

Deaf Old Lady looked at Wan Ping'an, her eyes filled with thick hatred; her hair was white, did she really have to apologize to Wan Ping'an in public?

"Old Lady, apologize, it's not difficult for you, right?"

Wang Zhuren urged.

She, as the subdistrict office director, apologized; Deaf Old Lady must apologize! ===== CHAPTER 128 =====
