Chapter 423

Everyone laughed.

Labor reform wasn't something to be proud of.

Yi Zhonghai's face darkened immediately.

He remembered.

When suggesting he go to labor reform, Ping'an promised in front of Director Wang of the subdistrict office that if Yi Zhonghai went to labor reform, he would pay double wages.

One part to the subdistrict office.

One part to distribute as welfare to the people in the courtyard.

Distributing tomatoes was bought with the money from his labor reform, yet the three of them who participated in labor reform were not eligible to receive any.

Isn't that infuriating?

Just look at Yi Zhonghai's face.

Yi Zhonghai turned and left, afraid that if he didn't, he would explode on the spot.

"First Elder, why are you leaving?"

"Don't want to say a few words?"

"Don't want to share your thoughts on labor reform?"

Wan Ping'an laughed.

Yi Zhonghai ran faster.

The laughter of the crowd grew louder.

Bang!

Yi Zhonghai returned home, slammed the door shut, his face gloomier than ever.

Yi's wife didn't dare to speak.

Yi Zhonghai sat down, angrily picked up his large tea mug and drank.

"Don't, I just poured hot..."

Yi's wife was terrified, shouting while reaching out to grab it.

Too late!

Yi Zhonghai had already drunk it.

Ah!

Yi Zhonghai let out a shout, jumped up, and threw the tea mug.

It was boiling water Yi's wife had just poured, still steaming!

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he hadn't noticed the mug was hot when he picked it up, and his tongue was scalded.

Yi's wife brought a bowl of cold water for Yi Zhonghai to hold in his mouth, and he felt much better!

Backyard.

The noise also woke the deaf old lady.

She came to the passage between the backyard and the middle courtyard, saw Yi Zhonghai being angered away, and her face didn't look good either.

"Wan Ping'an's move is to suppress Zhonghai's prestige."

"Just now saying thank you to Yi Zhonghai, nominally it's thanks, but in reality, it's letting everyone know that Yi Zhonghai made a mistake and was punished with labor reform."

"Striking at Yi Zhonghai's image in everyone's hearts!"

"Wan Ping'an, this little beast, he's gone too far, is he trying to kill us all?"

"If he does this a few more times, even if Yi Zhonghai is still the First Elder, he won't have any appeal and won't be able to control the Sihe Academy!"

"Wan Ping'an's arrogance is too great!"

The deaf old lady wished she could take her cane and give Wan Ping'an a few whacks.

But she couldn't.

First, Wan Ping'an hadn't done anything wrong, what excuse could she use to hit him?

Second, Wan Ping'an wasn't someone who would swallow his anger; others might, but Wan Ping'an definitely wouldn't, he would definitely retaliate!

If it blew up.

If it went to the subdistrict office or the police, it would be hard to end.

The deaf old lady gritted her teeth, snorted coldly, sulking, and turned to go home.

Hmph!

Wan Ping'an sneered.

He saw the deaf old lady.

He also heard from people in the courtyard that the deaf old lady's application for the five-guarantee household had passed.

"It didn't pass last time, how could it pass this time?"

"If she doesn't meet the criteria, she doesn't meet the criteria; this time passing, I'm afraid Yi Zhonghai tampered with the application materials."

"Daring to forge?"

"Looking for death!"

Wan Ping'an decided to investigate.

Jia family.

Jia Dongxu got up to make breakfast.

"Strange, my mom loves to watch the excitement, it's so noisy outside, why didn't she get up to watch?"

"I understand, she must be restless because of the burns, didn't sleep well last night, now she's catching up on sleep, I'll call her to eat after I finish cooking!"

Jia Dongxu muttered.

He didn't dare to call Jia Zhangshi rashly.

Jia Zhangshi had a bad temper when waking up, plus she was injured and uncomfortable, her temper would probably be even worse, he didn't want to touch that.

Breakfast was ready.

Put on the table.

Only then did Jia Dongxu go to call Jia Zhangshi.

"Mom, get up and eat."

Jia Dongxu was outside the inner room door, knocking, his voice not loud.

No response.

Knocked again, called again, still no response.

"What's going on?"

Jia Dongxu pressed his ear to the door.

He heard it.

Groaning.

Something happened to Jia Zhangshi.

He kicked the door open and rushed into the inner room.

Jia Zhangshi's face was flushed, and there was a layer of hot sweat on her forehead.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Jia Dongxu was anxious.

"I, I'm uncomfortable!"

Jia Zhangshi's voice was weak.

"Mom, I'll take you to the hospital."

Jia Dongxu wanted to help Jia Zhangshi off the bed.

"I don't have the strength to walk, I can't even stand up."

Jia Zhangshi shook her head.

"Mom, wait, I'll go find the First Elder."

When Jia Zhangshi said she couldn't stand up, Jia Dongxu's first reaction was to carry her on his back, but he immediately realized Jia Zhangshi's weight!

He could carry Jia Zhangshi, but definitely wouldn't get far!

"Your mom is sick?"

"Dongxu, this is no time for jokes!"

Yi Zhonghai's face didn't look good.
