Chapter 176 New Year Farce
The Jia family was also bustling with activity. Sha Zhu was so eager to find a wife that he mentioned his cousin to Qin Huairu. After what happened today, Qin Huairu no longer planned to stop Sha Zhu and her cousin Qin Jingru's relationship. She immediately agreed to Sha Zhu's plan to return to the countryside on the first day of the new year and bring her cousin for a blind date with Sha Zhu.

I had a good night's sleep. The house is soundproofed and I didn't hear any loud noise throughout the night.

The next day, on the first day of the new year, Li Shengli seemed to hear some movement at his door early in the morning, but Li Shengli ignored it because he had locked the door tightly. No other family in the compound was as wary of others as Li Shengli.

"Uncle Silly, I can't open this door." The man at the door pushed the door hard, but the door of Li Shengli's house didn't move at all.

"I told you not to go to Li Shengli's house, but you didn't listen." Sha Zhu hid by the wall and laughed at Bang Geng.

It turned out that just now, with the help of Sha Zhu, the three brothers and sisters of Banggeng successfully got lucky money from Xu Damao and Yan Bugui using the words they learned from Sha Zhu. The three children took bowls and entered the home of Xu Damao and Yan Bugui with the help of Sha Zhu. They knocked on the bowls and said the witty words made up by Sha Zhu, and got four dollars from the two of them.

This guy's eyes lit up when he saw that he got four dollars so easily. He immediately set his eyes on Li Shengli who lived opposite Yan Bugui's house.

Sha Zhu never expected to let Bang Geng go to Li Shengli's house. Yan Bugui and Xu Damao had irritated Sha Zhu, but Li Shengli had not irritated him. Besides, Sha Zhu had to thank Li Shengli for helping him explain to Teacher Yan.

"Uncle Silly, I'll give it a try." Bang Geng didn't give up. He thought that Lee Seung-ri seemed to live a good life. Besides, even if Lee Seung-ri had a grudge against his family, he couldn't take his anger out on a child.

Bang Geng pushed the door again without giving up.

Han Qiuyun was awakened by the sound of the door being pushed open in the room, and quickly pushed Li Shengli who was sleeping next to her.

"Victory, go check outside. I heard someone pushing the door."

"Don't worry about it. Look what time it is." Li Shengli pointed at the clock hanging on the wall.

"What if something happens to others?" Han Qiuyun was a little worried.

"What could be the matter, wife? Today is the first day of the new year. Even if you want to pay New Year's greetings, you don't have to come so early. Everyone is asleep." Li Shengli hugged Han Qiuyun and continued to lie down.

Bang Geng, who was outside the door, was a little discouraged when he saw that he couldn't push the door open. Sha Zhu, who was standing by, was laughing secretly and didn't intend to help.

"Uncle Sha, let me use that piece of iron of yours." Bang Geng remembered Sha Zhu's miraculous skill just now.

"Hey, I can't give it to you." Shazhu refused, frowning and teaching Banggeng, "You can't learn this."

If you learn this trick, don't go to other people's homes to steal things. You are an adult and can control yourself. Children don't understand so much. If they make a mistake, Qin Huairu will scold you to death.

Banggeng glanced at Shazhu with a crooked mouth and gave up the idea of ​​knocking on Li Shengli's door.

Li Shengli got up only after he had enough sleep.

"Brother-in-law, did you hear anyone knocking on the door this morning?" Han Qiuyu asked while brushing his teeth.

"I heard it. Don't worry about it. If there's really something wrong, just knock on the door." Li Shengli was making breakfast on the side.

"Li Shengli, come out for the meeting after dinner." Yan Jiecheng shouted from outside at this time.

"Yan Jiecheng, what's the matter?" Li Shengli didn't think too much. "Yes, there is something. You will know when you come out." Yan Jiecheng didn't say it clearly. His father asked him to notify, so he just had to notify.

"Okay, I'll go over after I finish my meal." Li Shengli said casually without any hurry.

"Brother-in-law, why is your compound holding a meeting on the first day of the New Year?" Han Qiuyu was a little curious. Today is usually a day for people to go out and pay New Year's greetings, but why is this compound holding a meeting?

"Someone must have offended one of the three uncles." Even if Li Shengli didn't know what was going on, he could guess that the ones who had offended Sha Zhu recently were Yan Bugui and Xu Damao.

"Why, you're curious, want to go and listen?" Li Shengli looked at the curious Han Qiuyu and joked, "It was held before. Today's party is a group gathering, just for everyone to have fun together."

"Can I go and listen? I'm quite curious." Han Qiuyu asked curiously with his eyes wide open.

"Okay, it's not a secret." Today's matter was mainly about Sha Zhu instigating the three children of the Jia family to pay New Year's greetings. Li Shengli knew that this matter could not be resolved and it was just a joke.

"Okay, why are you joining in the fun?" Han Qiuyun came over with the child in her arms and patted Han Qiuyu, telling her not to join in the fun.

Han Qiuyu curled her lips and gave up the idea of ​​joining in the fun.

After finishing his meal, Li Shengli waited for a while. When he heard the gong for the meeting outside, he walked out slowly.

When Li Shengli arrived, three old men were holding two large plates filled with peanuts, melon seeds and other things. A bunch of people below were reaching out to take the food, and not satisfied with just taking, they kept putting it into their pockets, especially the children from the Yan family.

Seeing Li Shengli coming, Yan Jiecheng held a handful of melon seeds in his hand and motioned to Li Shengli to grab them quickly, as they would be gone soon.

Li Shengli shook his head slightly and did not take any action. He leaned behind the crowd and watched the excitement.

"Let me see, Shazhu is the only one left." Yan Bugui stuffed a few handfuls of peanuts and sunflower seeds into his pocket, then put the plate in his hand on the table and sat back in his seat.

"Sha Zhu is here." Sha Zhu walked out of his house, went to the table, grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the plate and started to eat them, while eating them he walked into the crowd. Sha Zhu knew very well why this meeting was held. For Yan Bugui, this one dollar was enough for his family to eat two meals of meat.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let me tell you the purpose of this meeting." This matter was brought up by Yan Bugui. Some people in this courtyard have poor family conditions, some have good family conditions, some have children, and some do not. The New Year's money is a big expense.

Moreover, the three children of the Jia family are still young. As the third uncle in the courtyard, Yan Bugui must receive New Year's money, and Yan Bugui is unwilling to pay more.

Every year, there are always quarrels among people in the courtyard over New Year’s money. Yan Bugui made a suggestion to Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, which could perfectly solve this problem in the courtyard.

Yi Zhonghai took the lead in telling everyone about what the three uncles had discussed, and by the way, he wanted to make this a system of the compound. Li Shengli did not object. It was not because he was short of the money, but mainly because there would be no New Year's greetings in the future, so there was no need to waste time on it now.

Yi Zhonghai greeted everyone first to set an example. The people standing below clapped and cheered out loud. Then it was Liu Haizhong's turn. Liu Haizhong thought about how the factory leaders looked and said when they greeted everyone, so he imitated them. He really looked like a leader, but unfortunately his fat body made it impossible to regard him as a leader.

It seemed like Shazhu couldn't stand Liu Haizhong's arrogant look, so he confronted him right away.

It was New Year's Day and Liu Haizhong didn't want to argue with Sha Zhu, so he just yelled at him. Then Yan Bugui spoke.
