Chapter 68 Yi Zhonghai Loses His Temper
"If that's the case, then we should be happy!"
Yu Li couldn't help but chuckle when she thought about what Shen Zhishou had said.
However, she didn't laugh out loud.
The overall tone of this plenary meeting was rather somber.
Anyone who laughs out loud at this moment will definitely be resented.
Jia Zhangshi wore a bitter face the whole time, while Qin Huairu looked ashen-faced, holding Xiao Dang, and her whole demeanor became lifeless.
Only Bang Geng still had shining eyes and looked very energetic.
Sha Zhu sat in the crowd, his gaze occasionally drifting to the dejected Qin Huairu.
"Liu Haizhong, where's our Dongxu?"
After Liu Haizhong finished explaining Yi Zhonghai's situation and was about to adjourn the meeting, Jia Zhangshi suddenly stood up.
"Mrs. Jia, the factory hasn't released any information about the handling of your Jia Dongxu's case yet, so I don't know the specifics!"
"Wait a little longer!"
Jia Dongxu has already been sent to the detention center, and he will inevitably face legal judgment. As for whether he will receive a heavy sentence or a light sentence, it's really hard to say.
That's all for today, everyone can go home now!
Liu Haizhong then announced the end of the plenary session.
Liu Guangqi, along with his two younger brothers, began cleaning up the scene.
The square table was returned to Sha Zhu's house.
Benches and chairs, each went back to its own home.
Yi Zhonghai got up and, with heavy steps, slowly returned to the east wing.
"Yi Zhonghai!"
Suddenly, Madam Jia Zhang shouted.
Previously, Jia Zhangshi would address Yi Zhonghai as either "Uncle" or "Old Yi." This was the first time she had addressed him by his full name so directly and without any regard for politeness!
"..."
Yi Zhonghai stopped and turned to look at Jia Zhangshi.
"It's all your fault!"
"Give me back my son!"
Looking at Yi Zhonghai, Jia Zhangshi suddenly threw a tantrum.
She rushed straight at Yi Zhonghai and swung her hand to scratch his face.
Yi Zhonghai had been expressionless, but when faced with Jia Zhangshi waving at him, he responded quickly, slapping Jia Zhangshi's outstretched hands away.
"Jia Zhangshi, what are you doing!"
Yi Zhonghai's face hardened. "What does Dongxu's accident have to do with me?"
"I'm still feeling wronged!"
"That little brat lied to me, saying it wasn't his fault, but in the end, it was all his fault, and I got demoted and given a demerit because of him!"
"You're still here to cause me trouble?"
Do you think I'm easy to bully?
Yi Zhonghai was also getting angry at this moment.
He took Jia Dongxu as his apprentice, thinking that since he had no son, he would rely on Jia Dongxu as his apprentice to support him in his old age.
After all, a teacher for a day is a father for life!
Who would have thought that Jia Dongxu would cause such a mess!
"It's all your fault!"
"If you hadn't made Dongxu do the moving work, would he have gotten into this accident?"
Jia Zhangshi remained relentless, blaming all the blame on Yi Zhonghai.
"fart!"
"When did I ever ask him to do manual labor?"
"He went there himself for the small amount of money he could earn from moving things!"
"Let me tell you, don't even think about pinning the blame on me!"
"You've spoiled me rotten!"
Yi Zhonghai glared at Jia Zhangshi with disdain, then turned and left.
The brief exchange between the two had truly broadened the horizons of the residents in the courtyard.
In the past, Yi Zhonghai always spoke politely to everyone, and when he occasionally lost his temper, it was only at a hospital-wide meeting.
Today, Yi Zhonghai showed them a different side of himself.
Instead of lunging forward again, Jia Zhangshi sat down on the ground and began to cry for Old Jia.
"Old Jia, open your eyes!"
"They're all bullying us orphans and widows!"
"Come quickly, take these heartless bastards away!"
……
Upon witnessing Jia Zhangshi's undead summoning technique, Shen Zhishou couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy crap!"
This necromancer truly lives up to his name!
In the past, if Jia Zhangshi had acted this way, Yi Zhonghai, the head of the courtyard, would have definitely stepped forward to appease and persuade her, and everything would have eventually returned to calm.
But now, Yi Zhonghai is no longer the powerful figure in charge.
Moreover, Yi Zhonghai became one of the people that Jia Zhangshi said should be taken away by Lao Jia!
"Jia Zhangshi!"
Since Yi Zhonghai didn't care, Liu Haizhong, as the head of the household, naturally had to shoulder this heavy responsibility.
Liu Haizhong shouted, striding towards Jia Zhangshi who was sitting on the ground, his voice sharp and stern: "What do you want to do?"
"Should I report this to the neighborhood committee?"
Liu Haizhong had no idea how to deal with Jia Zhangshi, but Liu Guangqi had given him a suggestion beforehand: use the neighborhood committee to pressure Jia Zhangshi.
Jia Zhangshi is a rural resident!
If she causes too much trouble, the neighborhood committee will surely send her back to the countryside once they find out.
Previously, with Jia Dongxu as her son in the courtyard, Jia Zhangshi lived with him and didn't cause any trouble for the neighborhood committee, so the neighborhood committee didn't bother with her.
But now that Jia Dongxu has been arrested, if Jia Zhangshi makes any more trouble, she'll suffer the consequences.
Jia Zhangshi is a typical bully at home.
As soon as Liu Haizhong mentioned the subdistrict office, Jia Zhangshi immediately panicked.
"I...I didn't mean to do anything!"
"I feel wronged, can't I even cry for a bit?"
Jia Zhangshi spoke with a pitiful expression.
"Go cry at home!"
"Also, don't make too much noise; everyone has to go to work tomorrow!"
"I've been really busy lately, and work is exhausting. If you disturb my rest, you'll be a sabotager!"
Surprisingly, Liu Haizhong learned to make the most of a situation.
This terrified Jia Zhangshi so much that she didn't even dare to cry anymore!
Of course, Jia Zhangshi wasn't actually crying; she was wailing, her purpose being to attract attention.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work for bangs!
Yi Zhonghai used to tolerate this because she was Jia Dongxu's mother, and Yi Zhonghai was counting on Jia Dongxu to support him in his old age, so he indulged Jia Zhangshi's tantrums.
But at this moment, the situation has changed!
With this incident, Jia Dongxu is basically finished!
If Yi Zhonghai can't rely on Jia Dongxu, how could he possibly continue to protect Jia Zhangshi?
Unfortunately, Jia Zhangshi hadn't quite grasped the situation yet.
……
Shen Zhishou and Yu Li returned to the back room and continued to discuss the Jia family's affairs.
It's certain that Jia Dongxu will be sentenced.
So, how will his work be arranged?
Also, now that Sun Chuangen is gone, should the Jia family provide compensation?
Shen Zhishou really didn't know these things.
But in any case, the Jia family of the Siheyuan (courtyard house) is likely to fail.
In the original novel, when Jia Dongxu got into trouble, Qin Huairu stepped in to take over and ultimately saved the Jia family.
But given the current situation, Jia Dongxu's job is almost certainly going to be taken away, and it's impossible for Qin Huairu to take over Qin Huairu's job at the steel rolling mill.
With the Jia family losing their jobs at the steel mill, Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu, Banggeng, and Xiaodang, who were all registered as rural residents, would naturally be sent back to their village.
Shen Zhishou was deeply moved. He hadn't even made a move yet, and the courtyard house had completely deviated from the original plot and gone down a completely different path!
