Chapter 551

"Officer Song, I know I was wrong; can I avoid the criticism?"

Jia Zhangshi showed a pitiful expression.

If it were a beauty, like Qin Huairu, showing a pitiful expression, plus some tears, she would certainly be able to elicit a lot of sympathy.

As long as it wasn't a major mistake, everyone would certainly forgive her.

Jia Zhangshi couldn't do it.

She was old, fat, and ugly; her pitiful expression gave people the feeling of facing the ocean, and they almost vomited on the spot.

"You don't want to criticize yourself?"

"Fine, what's wrong with that?"

Officer Song agreed very readily.

"Really?"

Jia Zhangshi was overjoyed, smiling until her eyes squeezed into a slit.

"Of course it's true."

"Starting tomorrow, you will clean the restroom for a week."

"If you don't criticize yourself, then use labor to reform your thoughts. Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Fugui, you three are responsible for supervising her cleaning the restroom."

"If she doesn't go, or if she doesn't clean it well, and it's unqualified once, you three elders will each clean the restroom for a day."

Officer Song continued to announce.

What?

Jia Zhangshi was anxious.

She resolutely didn't want to clean the restroom.

It was dirty and smelly; she couldn't even stand squatting in the restroom for a long time, let alone cleaning it?

"Officer Song, I've thought it through; I am willing to make a self-criticism."

"Dear neighbors, I shouldn't have raised rats; I was wrong. I guarantee that starting today, I will kill every rat I see."

"I will resolutely not let rats enter the Sihe Academy!"

"..."

Jia Zhangshi made her self-criticism diligently.

Officer Song sneered.

As an officer of the subdistrict office, he had too much experience with Jia Zhangshi's kind of helplessness; couldn't he handle her?

Ten Jia Zhangshis wouldn't be enough for him to handle in a day.

It just depends on whether he wants to handle Jia Zhangshi!

Jia Zhangshi finished her criticism.

"I'll make a summary."

"The rat plague in your courtyard was an accident, but also a human disaster."

"The accident was the rats' behavior, which cannot be controlled by human power; the human disaster was the three elders failing to fulfill their duties."

"On behalf of the subdistrict office, I express severe criticism of Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Fugui; I hope you three learn from this lesson."

"At the same time, I will use you as a typical example for propaganda, so that elders in other courtyards can take warning."

"Meeting adjourned!"

After Officer Song finished speaking, he turned and left without any hesitation.

The three elders' faces were gloomy.

It was another negative example; the three of them had lost all face.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui were becoming negative examples for the first time, but Yi Zhonghai had been one more than once; he glared fiercely at Jia Zhangshi.

If it weren't for protecting Jia Zhangshi, he wouldn't have become a negative example again.

Everyone returned to their homes.

Yi Zhonghai's home.

"Head of the house, how many scapegoats have you been for Jia Zhangshi?"

"I admit that Jia Dongxu is indeed quite suitable for providing for old age, but Jia Zhangshi causes too much trouble; her negative impact on you is truly too great."

"Why don't you give up on Jia Dongxu!"

The First Elder's wife hated Jia Zhangshi more and more.

"Give up on Jia Dongxu? Who can replace him?"

"Shazhu certainly won't do; he's too dull, and his personality has flaws. Besides, He Daqing is still around, and he doesn't agree with me having much contact with Shazhu."

"Don't worry, Jia Zhangshi's actions are all small troubles."

"I'll go talk to her tomorrow and tell her she's not allowed to make any more scenes."

Yi Zhonghai shook his head.

Except for Jia Dongxu, no one can provide for his old age.

The First Elder's wife was more inclined to adopt one, but Yi Zhonghai didn't agree; what if, after raising them with great difficulty, he raised an ungrateful wretch?
