~6 min read 1,173 words

Seeing Lin Shengli standing on his side, Liu Haizhong hurriedly said:

Right, Old Lady, you need to compensate us for our glass.

The Deaf Old Lady angrily said: "Me, me compensate? I'll compensate your ass!"

Lin Shengli laughed: "Look, Shazhu must have learned from the Old Lady, too rude."

Deaf Old Lady: "Shengli, I, I haven't provoked you, I hope you don't come provoke me."

Lin Shengli: "Have I provoked you?"

I'm just speaking fairly.

Does breaking someone else's glass not require compensation?

Then what if Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu also go smash your glass, would that be okay?

Liu Guangtian: "Right, if she doesn't compensate, I, I'll bring people tomorrow to smash."

Deaf Old Lady: "You dare!"

Lin Shengli looked around at everyone and loudly asked:

Everyone, should breaking someone else's glass be compensated?

The crowd shouted in unison: "Compensate!"

Lin Shengli faced the Deaf Old Lady, shrugged, spread his hands, and said:

You see, this is everyone's opinion.

The Deaf Old Lady snorted and said:

I won't argue with you; I can't outtalk you, and I can't afford to provoke you.

I'm talking to Liu Haizhong.

Saying this, she looked at Liu Haizhong and asked:

Liu Haizhong, give me a straight answer today: will you or won't you release Shazhu?

Liu Haizhong said helplessly:

Old Lady, I also want to, but I'm willing but unable.

This is an order issued by Director Li, the Eldest Son of our factory; how dare I not obey?

Yi Zhonghai asked: "What did Director Li say?"

Liu Haizhong: "Director Li said detain Shazhu for three days, then expel Shazhu, unless he, he can obtain Lin Shengli's forgiveness, otherwise this time he must definitely be expelled."

Hearing this, the Deaf Old Lady couldn't help but furrow her brows.

Liu Guangtian: "I've said it before, standing with Shengli Ge is absolutely right."

You see, even Director Li gives Shengli Ge face.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Lin Shengli and asked:

Shengli, what do you think?

Lin Shengli: "I think we all need to be fair."

As for Shazhu being arrested, I also don't know why, but Director Li gave me face, so I thank him.

Then, wait until Shazhu is released and see his sincerity.

Yi Zhonghai nodded: "Just decide, I unconditionally support you."

Deaf Old Lady: "First Elder, Shazhu is someone you watched grow up; you can't see him die and not save him."

Yi Zhonghai: "Yes, I watched him grow up, so what?"

Since Shengli came, I've already seen through him.

He says he'll give me face, but he's still targeting Shengli everywhere?

As for how he'll be in the future, I can't worry about that much.

Let Shengli handle this himself.

But I'll say this first: if Shengli forgives him for past deeds, that's kindness; if Shengli doesn't forgive him, that's reason.

Liu Guangtian: "Right, not even looking at what Shazhu has done; if I were Shengli Ge, I would absolutely not forgive him."

Deaf Old Lady angrily said: "Liu Guangtian, I think you're tired of living."

Liu Guangtian: "Old Lady, you, you..."

Lin Shengli: "Old Lady, this is your fault; you're threatening Liu Guangtian's personal safety."

The Deaf Old Lady almost cried: "Shengli, I haven't provoked you at all, why can't you stand on my side?"

Why can't you pity this old lady?

Lin Shengli: "I stand on the side of justice."

Without distinguishing right from wrong, you smashed Second Elder's glass; if I were Second Elder, I'd definitely demand you pay.

Liu Haizhong gritted his teeth: "Right, Old Lady, you must pay."

The Deaf Old Lady pointed at Liu Haizhong, held back for a while, and spat out three words:

Compensate your ass!

Then.

He walked away looking depressed.

The next day.

The Siheyuan convened a general meeting.

Yi Zhonghai originally didn't want to go, but he couldn't withstand the repeated persuasion of Liu Haizhong and Yan Bu Gui.

However, as soon as he arrived, he announced to everyone:

Today Second Elder is chairing the meeting; I'll just quietly listen.

He actually didn't want to deliberately waste everyone's time just for Yan Bu Gui's family affairs.

Liu Haizhong: "Eldest Uncle is being modest, ah, having Shengli here, no, regardless of who is present or absent, Eldest Uncle is always our courtyard's Eldest Uncle."

However, since Eldest Uncle wants to be quiet today, I'll take charge.

After his words fell, Yan Bu Gui, sitting opposite him, spoke up.

"Um, everyone, please be quiet."

"Today, Second Elder is hosting the meeting."

"I, I will first say a couple of sentences."

After saying that, he stood up.

Liu Haizhong glanced at him, his face looking a bit unpleasant.

Yan Bu Gui loudly said:

"Now please, Ya gang chang, no, please the factory director of Red Star Machinery Equipment Factory, Comrade Lin Shengli, say a few words."

"Everyone applaud to welcome."

After his words fell, thunderous applause was heard.

After the applause subsided, Lin Shengli opened his mouth to say:.

"San Da Ye, I won't say it; you all just say it, I'll just listen."

Yan Bu Gui: "Alright, everyone being modest, then now please Comrade Liu Haizhong from Ya gang chang say a couple of sentences."

"Everyone applaud to welcome."

Liu Haizhong, upon hearing that, while preparing to stand up amidst everyone's applause, again heard Yan Bu Gui's voice:

"Ah, this, that, I just misspoke; actually, everyone doesn't need to applaud."

Liu Haizhong glared at Yan Bu Gui and sat down.

He is now feeling depressed.

Yan Bu Gui then said:

"Why did I say we don't need to applaud?"

"Because this is not a formal meeting at all."

Having said this, he looked at Liu Haizhong and continued:

"Old Liu, you go ahead and say a couple of sentences."

Liu Haizhong looked at him, clapped his hands, was about to speak, then glanced at Yan Bu Gui again.

He worried that Yan Bu Gui would interject again.

Seeing that Yan Bu Gui made no move, he then slowly said:

"Originally, this meeting should have been hosted by Eldest Uncle, but, uh, he already said that earlier, so I won't say it."

"Next, I want to first say something."

"The first item to be resolved in our courtyard is the problem of Yan Bu Gui's teacher's family."

"I want to ask first, regarding this issue, how does Shengli view it?"

Lin Shengli: "I'll just listen, just listen."

Liu Haizhong: "That's fine; the reason I asked Shengli is not simply because he is Eldest Uncle's nephew, but because Shengli is Director Li's brother, uh, is, is a factory director of a factory, at the same level as our factory director, so I must respect him."

"Next I will talk about Yan Bu Gui's teacher's family problem."

"His children are not yet married."

"They are just making a fuss about splitting the household, ah."

Having said this, Liu Haizhong looked toward Yan Jiefang and shouted:

"Yan Jiefang."

Yan Jiefang hastily raised his hand, then stood up, and said:

"I'm here."

Liu Haizhong: "Let's verify, verify this issue."
