Chapter 881 Yan Bugui Wants to Leave
Liu Haizhong was in a state of panic. He couldn't figure out how this matter had gotten out. He knew that if he couldn't explain it well, the situation would become even more difficult to handle, and his prestige in the hospital would be completely destroyed.
Helplessly, he had to force a smile, which looked uglier than crying, and said, "The deaf old lady's house has been empty and no one lives in it. It's a waste to just leave it like this. I have many children and housing is tight, so I thought of moving in first, and then returning the house to the deaf old lady when I have the chance in the future." As he spoke, he observed the reactions of the neighbors around him, feeling uneasy.
However, no one in the courtyard believed his words. They knew it was clear in their minds that he was planning to occupy the house, and he was saying it in such a high-sounding way that it was hard to believe. The crowd booed in disdain.
At this time, Tiedan also raised his head, staring straight at Liu Haizhong, his young face full of confusion, and asked: "Then why did the people from the Jia family come here too? The rest of us don't know anything? What is going on?" Tiedan's crisp childish voice was particularly loud in the yard, like another sharp blade, stabbing straight at Liu Haizhong.
Liu Haizhong was speechless, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. Yi Zhonghai looked at Tiedan from the side, thinking to himself that Gu Nan must be involved in this matter. But what could he say at this moment? He could only sigh inwardly, feeling helpless.
At that moment, everyone in the courtyard looked unhappy, their eyes all turned to Liu Haizhong, their eyes full of dissatisfaction and questioning. One of the neighbors raised his voice and said bluntly: "Liu Haizhong, you are the boss of our courtyard. Everyone respects you, but how could you do such a thing? This house is not yours alone. Why did you divide it among your families? Shouldn't you also give us a share?" As soon as these words came out, the surrounding neighbors echoed them, one after another, and the voices grew louder and louder, and the whole courtyard instantly exploded.
Liu Haizhong was surrounded by the accusations of the crowd, his face flushed and white, and he opened his mouth, about to make some excuses. At this moment, Yan Bugui was a little panicked. He saw that everyone's attention was on Liu Haizhong, and he moved his feet secretly, intending to slip away quietly.
Yan Bugui thought his actions were sufficiently discreet, but unexpectedly, this scene was seen by He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu was a person who loved to watch the fun, and he immediately became interested. He deliberately raised his voice and asked loudly: "Teacher Yan, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Yan Bugui was startled by this sudden question. A trace of panic flashed across his face, and he stammered: "I... I'm thirsty. I'm going back to drink some water and get some rest." He avoided He Yuzhu's eyes, not daring to look him in the eye.
He Yuzhu actually didn't know the whole story, but he instinctively felt that there was something exciting to watch here, so he stood there and watched with interest.
Gu Nan watched all of this from the sidelines, secretly amused. He stepped forward, looked at Liu Haizhong, and said with a half-smile, "Uncle, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you guys to just divide up the house privately? You should at least discuss this with everyone." His tone seemed calm, but it contained a subtle questioning that was hard to ignore.
When Liu Haizhong heard this, he became even more anxious and retorted angrily: "Gu Nan, what does this have to do with you? Don't get involved here!" He was annoyed that Gu Nan came out to disrupt the situation at this time and ruined their original plan.
Gu Nan didn't get angry after hearing this. He just shrugged slightly and said nothing more. After all, this matter had nothing to do with him in essence. He just came here to join in the fun and see how these usually righteous people would end up.
However, the neighbors weren't willing to let it go. After all, a house was a significant sum, and it was unfair for Liu Haizhong and the Jia Zhang family to monopolize it. Someone else in the crowd shouted, "That's right, the house isn't yours. Why should you divide it up just like that? We have rights, too!" The crowd grew increasingly agitated.
At this moment, Jia Zhang became unhappy when she heard what everyone said. She put her hands on her hips and yelled like a shrew: "What does this have to do with you? You just need to take care of your own lives and stop meddling in other people's business!" Her unreasonable look made many neighbors frown.
In fact, the people in the courtyard were not really afraid of Jia Zhang, but they were really fed up with her because she would throw a tantrum and make endless trouble every time something happened. She was like a lunatic and was a real headache for them.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Liu Haizhong quickly stood up, trying to suppress everyone's emotions, and said loudly: "Okay, stop arguing here, go out! It's just a house, it has nothing to do with you!" He tried to put on a majestic look, trying to calm the situation.
Yan Bugui stood aside, secretly glad that he had gotten what he wanted, and naturally didn't say anything more at this time. He knew that if he continued to stay here, he might get into trouble, so it would be better to slip away quickly.
But the neighbors in the courtyard couldn't let it go. They all felt that Liu Haizhong and Jia Zhangshi had gone too far. Just as everyone was deadlocked, He Yuzhu stood up. His eyes rolled, and he thought to himself: "If you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you're a jerk!" Although he was only an apprentice at the steel mill, his salary was not high, and Gu Nan had been constantly giving him trouble.
But if he could take advantage of this opportunity and let Gu Nan know that he was helping him, maybe Gu Nan would stop giving him trouble in the future. So, he said loudly, "This matter isn't something you guys can decide! I think we should hold a meeting for the whole courtyard. At that time, call everyone in our courtyard and explain the matter clearly. We can solve it in a way that we can avoid everyone guessing and causing unpleasantness."
Liu Haizhong felt helpless after hearing He Yuzhu's words. He wanted to retort, but the words were on the tip of his tongue, and he couldn't say them. After all, He Yuzhu had said so, and the neighbors present all nodded in agreement. He really had no other choice but to grit his teeth, his heart filled with regret.
