Chapter 77 Solution
Everyone still gave face to Yi Zhonghai, a big shot, and soon quieted down.
"Then, Li Shengli, how do you want to solve it?" Yi Zhonghai threw this difficult problem to Li Shengli.
"How to punish is up to you three uncles." Li Shengli ignored this and said that he had no right to punish others.
"I think that this practice of speaking ill of others behind their backs must be stopped. If I find out who is making up some inexplicable things about me behind my back, just wait and see how I will spread rumors about her." Li Shengli looked at Jia Zhang and stated his bottom line.
"Why are you looking at me?" Jia Zhang stared at Li Shengli with her eyes wide open.
"Don't look at anything else, I'm talking about you, Aunt Zhang. Next time if I catch you saying bad things about me behind my back, I will really do it. Just like you said, I'm alone anyway." Li Shengli looked at Jia Zhang with murderous eyes. How could he let himself be wronged if he lived his life again?
Just as Jia Zhang was about to speak after hearing Li Shengli's threat, Yi Zhonghai interrupted her and said, "Alright, let's all take a step back. Sister-in-law, apologize to Li Shengli and stop saying bad things about others in the future. Li Shengli, you should also control your temper."
"I'm not apologizing." After being interrupted by Yi Zhonghai, Jia Zhang turned her head and didn't even look at Li Shengli.
"Okay, that's easy. Tomorrow I will go out and spread rumors about your family. Anyway, I don't have to apologize or be punished." Li Shengli took a look and prepared to carry his bench home.
"Hey, hey, hey, wait a moment, Li Shengli, wait a moment." The three uncles and Qin Huairu shouted almost in unison.
Qin Huairu was afraid that Lee Seungri would spread rumors and ruin her reputation, and Yi Zhonghai was also afraid that Lee Seungri would spread rumors, after all, he had no children.
Liu Haizhong was afraid that if the rumor got out, he would appear to be useless.
As for Yan Bugui, it was simple. If the rumor got out, the advanced compound would be gone, and the things distributed by the street office would also be gone.
The people sitting there watching the fun were also a little confused. Is Lee Seung-ri so stubborn that he doesn't even want to discuss the matter. Isn't this equivalent to overturning the table during negotiations?
"I say, Li Shengli, are you still a man, bullying these orphans and their widows like this?" Sha Zhu couldn't stand it anymore.
"He Yuzhu, are you going to stand up for them?" Li Shengli narrowed his eyes and looked at Sha Zhu expressionlessly.
"That's not the case, but aren't you being too petty by holding on to this point?" Sha Zhu thought about it and decided not to step out. He just couldn't stand Li Shengli bullying Qin Huairu. Didn't he see that Qin Huairu was crying?
"Then how about I go out and spread rumors about you?" Li Shengli said jokingly, "Oh, I forgot, there is no need for me to spread it, the rumors about you, Master He, have already spread throughout the steel mill. Master He, you are really amazing and have no plans to marry a wife. I can't do that, my deceased father is still waiting for me to continue the family line and receive him."
"Hahaha." The people below laughed even harder. It was all thanks to Xu Damao that the rumor about Sha Zhu spread so widely.
Xu Damao was laughing so hard in the back that he couldn't stop. To him, spreading some rumors was nothing as long as it could cause trouble for Sha Zhu, especially since what he said was basically the truth.
"Yeah, Shazhu, you're the only unmarried old person in this hospital." Someone behind him started to make a noise.
"Who said I don't plan to get married? Just wait and see." Sha Zhu was very angry at Li Shengli's words.
After listening to Sha Zhu's words, Xu Damao's eyes rolled around. Sha Zhu is going to have a blind date, and I must ruin it.
"Mom, think about it carefully. If Li Shengli goes out and spreads rumors that our family is not decent, it will be fine for us, but you must know what will happen if Banggeng gets to his ears." When Li Shengli and Shazhu were confronting each other, Qin Huairu said to Jia Zhang in a low and anxious voice.
"If you want to apologize, go ahead and apologize. I won't apologize anyway." Although Jia Zhang's tone had softened a little, she still turned her head and said.
"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet." The three uncles discussed it and decided that this wouldn't work. If everyone went out and spread rumors, the whole compound would become a joke.
"So, the three of us have discussed it. Jia Zhang fabricated and spread rumors. She needs to apologize to Li Shengli and stop spreading rumors from now on." Yi Zhonghai stood up and said the solution that the three uncles had discussed. "And as a punishment, Jia Zhang needs to clean the public sanitation of the compound for a week."
"What? I won't do it." Jia Zhang was unwilling to listen to her. She was not allowed to spread rumors casually. She just said what she saw. She couldn't apologize. "I apologized to him, he wouldn't be afraid of shortening his life." Jia Zhang spat on the ground.
"Three uncles, it seems that someone is dissatisfied with your punishment. Forget it, I'd better go home and think about how to spread rumors tomorrow." After saying that, Li Shengli pretended to get up and go back to the house.
"Hey, Shengli, wait a minute, can't I apologize on behalf of my mother-in-law?" Qin Huairu quickly stood up and said with a smile.
"No need, not even your mother-in-law's apology. Next time I catch you it won't be as easy as this time." Li Shengli didn't want to hear the apology from the Jia family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. "Also, our two families have become enemies, so it won't be so easy to let it go next time."
After saying this, Li Shengli picked up his own bench and left without waiting for the three uncles to announce the end of the meeting.
"Wow, this Li Shengli really doesn't give face to the three gentlemen."
"Well, what's the big deal? The three masters can't force Jia Zhang to apologize to anyone."
"Didn't Qin Huairu apologize?"
"It's no use for Qin Huairu to apologize. It was her mother-in-law who spread the rumor. What does it have to do with her?"
The people sitting below began to talk.
"Da Mao, do you think it's okay for Li Shengli to be so disrespectful to the three gentlemen?" Lou Xiao'e said with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"It's hard to say. It depends on what the three uncles think. Anyway, the matter is resolved." Xu Damao was a little gloating. He hoped that Li Shengli would have a conflict with the three uncles.
"Okay, let's all adjourn the meeting." Yi Zhonghai felt relieved when he saw Li Shengli leaving. This Li Shengli was really a troublemaker. Fortunately, the problem was resolved.
Yan Bugui also breathed a sigh of relief. This little bit of face was not worth much. Besides, there were uncles and uncles above him. The things given by the excellent academies every year were really practical.
There was some anger in Liu Haizhong but not much. After all, the one who lost the most prestige was an old man.
"Old Yi, then do I not have to clean the yard?" The person who was least affected by Li Shengli's departure was Jia Zhang, who was happily asking Yi Zhonghai, and when she got a negative answer from Yi Zhonghai, she put on a Sima face.
"Shazhu, you still want to find a wife." Xu Damao mocked Shazhu with a smug look on his face.
"Xu Damao, I say you deserve to be punished." Sha Zhu raised his fist and acted as if he was going to attack. When Xu Damao saw this, he immediately hid behind Lou Xiaoe.
"Xu Damao, look at what you have achieved. You're still hiding behind a woman." Sha Zhu looked at Xu Damao with contempt.
The meeting soon dispersed, and Qin Huairu returned home with her head down, once again trying to find someone to help her.
The next day, when Jia Zhang was chatting with others, she found that these people's attitudes had subtly changed. She didn't care, but she didn't see what others said after she left.
"This Jia Zhang is so shameless, making up stories about people behind their backs." An old lady said with a pout as she looked at Jia Zhang's back.
"Why bother with her? Let's not listen to what she says from now on." Another auntie patted this auntie.
"Yes, yes." The others agreed.
