Chapter 156: General Assembly (Part )
"This is the first and last time. From now on, no matter who has a conflict in this hospital, this method is not allowed to be used. I hope everyone will learn from this incident." Yi Zhonghai shouted loudly.
Li Shengli sneered, despising this double-standard old man in his heart. If others couldn't retaliate, then Sha Zhu could. When Sha Zhu retaliated by stealing Yan Bugui's wheel, Yi Zhonghai didn't say a word.
"Second uncle, third uncle, shall we stop here for today?" Yi Zhonghai did not mention how to solve the problem later.
"Hey, wait a minute, uncle, that won't do. He is going to eat our chicken for nothing." Xu Damao stared with his eyes wide open, unwillingly. It seemed that his chicken was lost in vain.
"You, then how do you want him to compensate?" Liu Haizhong paused, raised his hand and waved subconsciously.
Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao looked at each other, and Lou Xiao'e stretched out two fingers: "Two dollars."
Lou Xiao'e is a good choice. She asked Sha Zhu to pay compensation according to the market price. After hearing this, Xu Damao quickly pulled Lou Xiao'e. It was not easy to catch Sha Zhu's handle, so how could he let it go so easily?
"Go away, what are you thinking? That's an old hen in our house." Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiaoe as if she were a fool.
"A hen is also a chicken. One yuan each at the Chaoyang vegetable market." Sha Zhu was a little unhappy and knew that Xu Damao was going to ask for a huge price. When he first heard Lou Xiao'e say two yuan, Sha Zhu was a little reluctant but still endured it. But Sha Zhu couldn't endure this opening of Xu Damao.
"That's not right. Xu Damao raised old hens to lay eggs, so the punishment should be increased." Yan Bugui was unhappy after hearing what Sha Zhu said. No one in the hospital understood the value of these things better than him. He really thought that his nickname of "the calculating expert" was given for nothing.
Moreover, this Sha Zhu always doesn't take himself seriously, and Xu Damao even gives him some onions and garlic from time to time. This must be a lesson for Sha Zhu.
"Okay, okay, tell me what you think." Sha Zhu admitted defeat. He admired no one but Yan Bugui when it came to this plan.
"Uncle San is right. I keep this old hen for laying eggs." Xu Damao's expression looked like he asked for a beating. Sha Zhu, who was standing opposite Xu Damao, gave him a cold look with an expression that said, "I'm just listening to your nonsense."
"This old hen in my house can lay seven eggs in ten days. I plan to keep it for a year and save some for my wife to eat during her confinement." Xu Damao, with a look on his face that deserved a beating, raised his head and started to settle the accounts with Sha Zhu.
"Come on, you are still in confinement and laying eggs. Does your wife lay eggs? You have been married for many years." Sha Zhu laughed and said, "Oh, no, your wife can give birth, it's you who has the problem. It's like a rooster that can't step on eggs."
Li Shengli burst out laughing. This idiot Zhu's words were really poisonous. He was specifically stabbing Xu Damao in the heart.
"Sha Zhu! This is a personal attack." The knife hit Xu Damao's blood vessel. Xu Damao was angry and anxious. This matter was exposed by Sha Zhu, the bastard.
"Uncle one, uncle two, uncle three, look at Sha Zhu, why don't you do anything about this?" Xu Damao looked at the three uncles.
None of the three uncles paid any attention to Xu Damao. After all, Sha Zhu was telling the truth, Yi Zhonghai was thinking of himself, and Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were also trying to hold back their laughter.
"Okay, stop laughing." After a while of laughter, Yan Bugui spoke up. He was good at things like settling accounts. "Xu Damao, how about this? You take the chicken back, and then Sha Zhu will compensate you five dollars."
"What!" Sha Zhu refused to do it. It was too much of a loss for him to get a chicken for five dollars, not to mention that he didn't steal the chicken.
"Okay, that's it, uncle, you should also express your opinion." Liu Haizhong looked at Yi Zhonghai who had been silent. Yi Zhonghai's face was a little dark. Sha Zhu's ridicule of Xu Damao just now was directed at him.
"Uncle, five dollars is too much. It's the equivalent of a month's food for two of us. Who can bear it?" Qin Huairu was reluctant to give it up. If Sha Zhu didn't pay so much money, all the money would have fallen into her hands. Five dollars for a month's food for Qin Huairu's family would be enough for her monthly salary. But she still cries poor in the yard every day. No wonder no one is willing to lend her things now.
"Five dollars is enough for the two of you to eat for a month. What about Sha Zhu? Sha Zhu makes thirty-seven and a half dollars a month. This amount of money is nothing to him." Liu Haizhong was unmoved. This must be a lesson for Sha Zhu. "I think we should just leave it at that. Uncle, please give us your opinion."
"It's settled. Let's adjourn the meeting." Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a while but had no other choice. He had to announce the punishment result with a sullen face. Before leaving, he said to Sha Zhu, "You deserved it."
"Jianshe, Jiecheng, you haven't offended He Yuzhu, right?" Li Shengli looked at Xu Damao holding a casserole of stewed chicken and arguing with Sha Zhu in front of him, and whispered to the two people walking beside him.
"No, what's wrong?" Ma Jianshe was a little confused by the question.
"Look, Xu Damao just said some bad things about He Yuzhu and was retaliated against by He Yuzhu. You should be more careful." Li Shengli reminded the two of them.
"Well, I actually hope that Sha Zhu will take revenge. Look, Xu Damao not only got a chicken for free, but also got five dollars. This is quite a good deal." Yan Jiecheng's eyes lit up as he counted with his fingers and started to calculate the bill with Li Shengli.
"Jiecheng, it was Xu Damao who discovered it this time. What if he can't find it next time?" Li Shengli looked at Yan Jiecheng with strange eyes. Yan Jiecheng wouldn't think of making money from Sha Zhu in this way, right?
"That's right." Yan Jiecheng thought about it and gave up this dangerous method.
Several people returned to the front yard, greeted each other, and went home.
"Victory, is the problem solved?" Han Qiuyun was also listening to the noise outside at home.
"It's solved. He Yuzhu accepted it." Li Shengli said, rubbing his hands. He was so cold after the meeting.
"I'll bring the chicken home later and I'll come back tomorrow to slaughter it." Li Shengli said to the two people at home who were roasting by the fire.
"This chicken thief has been caught, so what is he afraid of?" Han Qiuyun wondered.
"What did you catch? The chicken He Yuzhu stewed was leftover from the factory's hospitality." Li Shengli smiled dotingly at Han Qiuyun, "I've seen that chicken. There wasn't much meat on it to begin with. Besides, He Yuzhu came back so late today, how could he have had time to steal Xu Damao's chicken?"
"Then why did he admit it?" Han Qiuyun thought to himself, could this be the origin of the nickname "Shazhu"? Is this guy a fool?
"He Yuzhu is very smart. Firstly, bringing things home from the steel mill's back kitchen is not something that can be made public. Secondly, He Yuzhu has reasons to take the blame." Li Shengli became interested and gave Han Qiuyun a detailed analysis.
"What reason?" Han Qiuyun was stunned after hearing these words.
"Whose family is He Yuzhu closest to?" Li Shengli pointed towards the central courtyard.
"Are you talking about Qin Huairu?" Han Qiuyun turned his head.
"That's right, tell me which adult in this yard has taken things from other people's homes. Especially since the backyard is at the innermost part, it must be a kid from some family who was greedy and stole the chicken from Xu Damao's house to eat. I guess someone in this yard saw it, but no one said anything." Li Shengli had some guesses.
