Lou Xiao'e looked at Zou He walking away, with a little loss in her eyes.

It would have been better if I had known Zou He earlier.

Then, she will approach him desperately now, and will not be as timid as she is now.

Unfortunately, regrets cannot be made up for in the end.

All she can do is to be worthy of her own heart and not let herself regret it in the future. She doesn't work hard now.

When Zou He returned to the courtyard, Qin Jingru had already prepared the meal. When the two children saw Zou He coming back, they quickly ran over to help.

Jinlong helped park the bicycle, while Baofeng ran to get a small bench for Zou He, and said sweetly: "Dad, thank you for your hard work. Daddy, sit down and have a rest!"

Zou He was in a good mood when he saw that the two children were so well-behaved and sensible. He rubbed Jin Long's short hair and said, "Young man, you did a good job! I will reward you with this!"

After Zou He finished speaking, he took out the few lollipops he got when he signed in in the morning from his pocket and handed one to each of Jinlong and Baofeng.

Baofeng happily took the candy and was about to peel off the candy wrapper and start eating. Qin Jingru brought water from the house and asked Zou He to wash his hands. After seeing it, he slightly scolded: "Baofeng, don't eat the candy now, you have to eat now."

Already."

After hearing this, Baofeng pouted and reluctantly put the candy into his pocket.

Qin Jingru looked at her pitiful appearance and couldn't help laughing. Jin Long looked like a little adult and said, "Baofeng, you are so old, why are you still as ignorant as a child?"

"Of course you can't eat sweets when you're about to eat. You can only eat them after eating."

Baofeng felt a little aggrieved when she saw that Jin Long was also talking about herself, and said: "You still talk about me, so you don't want to eat it? You will definitely eat it secretly."

Jin Long looked serious, shook his head and said, "I won't eat it. Dad said that I am a man now and I have to protect you and mother. How could I eat candy that is only eaten by children?"

Zou He, who was washing his hands at the side, burst out laughing when he heard Jin Long's words.

"Man? Hahaha! Not bad, not bad!"

"He does look a bit manly."

When Jin Long heard his father praising him, a smile appeared on his face and his chest straightened out even more.

The family had just finished dinner when a shout suddenly came from outside.

"Everyone, come out and come to the Intermediate Court! Let's hold a general meeting of the whole hospital!"

Zou He recognized it. It was Yi Zhonghai's voice again.

Qin Jingru asked doubtfully: "Didn't he have a meeting some time ago? Why did he give up the meeting again today?"

Zou He thought for a moment and then figured out the reason.

He said with great interest: "The purpose of the meeting was not achieved, so of course he was unwilling to do so. Now, it's exciting to watch."

After saying that, he lifted the bench and said, "Let's go and have a look too."

Intermediate Court.

Many people gradually gathered in front of Yi Zhonghai's house.

At this time, everyone has finished eating, and it is time for leisure.

In this era, there are no televisions, let alone mobile phones, and people have few recreational activities. Naturally, they will not let it go if they encounter such a lively event.

It seems that everyone in the courtyard has almost arrived.

Yi Zhonghai stood up and said: "Dear young and old gentlemen, our neighbors in the courtyard, today I am convening this hospital-wide meeting because there is one thing that I want everyone to comment on!"

As soon as Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he looked at Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu who were sitting beside them.

The expressions of both of them changed a little.

There was a chaotic discussion among the people below.

"I don't know what's going on in the meeting today?"

"What else could it be about? It's just asking for money! We've held this hospital-wide meeting several times, and we still haven't given up."

"Whoever asks for money from Qin Huairu's house means the sun is rising in the west."

…

Yi Zhonghai looked at Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang and finally spoke.

"What I want to say is about lending Qin Huairu three hundred yuan before!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone had a look of understanding on their faces.

"Am I right? As expected, he is asking Qin Huairu for money again!"

"I think it's hard to get this money!"

"Auntie has been gone for more than a month, right? She hasn't come back yet. It seems she is very angry this time."

"I would be angry too. My man lent so much money to another woman behind my back. How could I not be angry!"

"Qin Huairu is the same. She is really shameless. The old Yi couple made such a big fuss over lending her money, but she still refuses to pay it back!"

The crowd's discussion reached Qin Huairu's ears, and Qin Huairu became embarrassed.

He stood up and said, "Master, what do you mean?"

"I borrowed your money, but you promised to lend it to me, and I didn't come to your house to steal it. You keep chasing after it again and again, isn't it too much?!"

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his face turned red with anger, and he said angrily: "Am I going too far?"

"It's true that I lent you this money, but our family is in such trouble now because I lent you this money. Your aunt has been back to her parents' house for more than a month. Why can't you understand my difficulties? Hurry up and get me

Pay me back the money I lent you? Are you still saying I'm too much now?"

Qin Huairu sighed and said: "Master, you are the elder of our hospital. I have always respected you. I am very grateful that you lent me money. As long as I have the money, I will return it to you immediately."

"But our family is really in a tight situation right now and we have no money to pay you back."

After Qin Huairu said this, everyone in the courtyard started talking about it.

"There's nothing wrong with what Qin Huairu said. I don't intend to default on the debt. I will pay it back when I have money."

"Is their family rich? Their family can't even eat every day. Qin Huairu doesn't have a job now. When will he have money to pay off the debt? I think it's just an empty promise."

Yes, although Qin Huairu's words sounded nice, they did not have any substantive guarantee at all.

She did say she would pay back the money, but the premise is that her family has money, which is almost impossible.

Everyone in the courtyard understands this truth, and the first master, Yi Zhonghai, also knows it very well.

"When you have money?"

"You mean, if you never have money, you won't pay me back, right?"

"Qin Huairu, isn't it too rude of you to do this? My old lady went back to her parents' house because she lent money to you, and she hasn't come back yet. How do you feel so at ease?"

The two couldn't argue, each holding his own opinion.

One insists on asking for money, and the other spreads his hands, asking for money if he doesn't want it, and for his life.

Zou He sat in the crowd, eating melon seeds and watching the fun.

The dog-eat-dog scene is really interesting.

This is much more interesting than any TV series from later generations.

The sound of Jinlong and Baofeng talking quietly next to them also reached Zou He's ears.

Baofeng: "Brother, do you think that old man can ask for money?"

Jin Long: "How is it possible? Banggeng's grandma is so unreasonable, and Banggeng's family has no money. No matter what he says, it will be in vain. The money will definitely not come out."

Baofeng shook his head and said: "It seems that you really can't borrow money casually. The money in your own hands belongs to you, but it doesn't matter if you lend it out."

Jin Long: "That's right. When you borrow money, you have to make plans not to get it back."

Zou He was a little surprised as he listened to the conversation between his two children.

Even many adults may not understand these principles.

After borrowing money, he always comes to ask for payment, offending others, and still not paying back the money.

Baofeng and Jinlong understood this truth at such a young age, which really surprised Zou He.

While Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang's Qin Huairu were arguing at a stalemate, another voice suddenly sounded from the crowd.

"Hmph, Yi Zhonghai, what do you mean?"

"The boss of our courtyard now is me, Liu Haizhong, not you!"

"What right do you have to convene this general meeting of the hospital?"

The person who spoke was none other than the second uncle Liu Haizhong.

As soon as he came back from get off work, he saw that the middle courtyard was full of people. After listening to a few words, he found out that it was a hospital-wide meeting held by Yi Zhonghai, asking Qin Huairu's family for money.

My bangs were immediately unhappy.

He was a well-known official fan in the courtyard. After Yi Zhonghai stepped down, Liu Haizhong finally got his wish and became the steward.

Although the people in the yard didn't really listen to his arrangements, the man in charge was the real deal.

However, Yi Zhonghai had been deposed long ago. Even though he was the boss, he still held hospital meetings repeatedly behind his back. This was simply a challenge to his authority.

He doesn't take his boss in charge seriously at all.

Of course Liu Haizhong was not happy.

Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai were having a heated argument. Seeing Liu Haizhong coming back, Jia Zhang quickly said: "Yes, his second uncle, you are now the steward of our yard, and Yi Zhonghai has

Why call a general meeting of the hospital! Bah!"

When Liu Haizhong heard what Jia Zhang said, he felt very touched and suddenly felt a little elated.

"Yi Zhonghai, as the steward of what happened today, I want to give you a warning. If it happens again, don't blame me for following the rules of our courtyard!"

Yi Zhonghai was furious and argued: "I held the general meeting just to get my own money back! What's wrong with me?!"

Liu Haizhong waved his hand and said impatiently: "Don't talk about those useless things now. We are not talking about money now, but about you holding a hospital-wide meeting without going through me, the second uncle!"

"

"You are no longer the steward of our hospital. I hope you can correct your position in the future, see your identity clearly, and stop doing things you shouldn't do. Do you understand?"

Yi Zhonghai's hands were shaking with anger. He suppressed his anger and said, "Okay, since you said you are the steward of our hospital, should you take care of Qin Huairu's failure to repay the money he lent me?"

Liu Haizhong snorted and glanced sideways at Yi Zhonghai.

Compared to Qin Huairu's family, the one who dislikes and dislikes Liu Hai more is of course Yi Zhonghai.

After all, Yi Zhonghai is the former steward, and he poses a certain threat to himself, the current steward, and he doesn't respect himself enough.

As for the matter of Qin Huairu's family borrowing money from Yi Zhonghai, is it none of his business?

Why stand up for Yi Zhonghai?

Liu Haizhong said: "Okay, since you said so, then as the steward, I will say a few words."

"Lao Yi, I'm not telling you, you are a bit stubborn and unreasonable at such an old age."

"It was originally a good thing that you lent money to Qin Huairu, but after you lent the money to someone for such a short period of time, you kept forcing them to pay back the money, and even held private hospital meetings several times. Aren't you bullying people!

"

"Besides, didn't Qin Huairu also admit that she lent you the money? As long as she has the money, she will pay you back immediately. Why are you still refusing to let me go? This is really inappropriate!"

Hearing Liu Haizhong say this, Mrs. Jia Zhang suddenly smiled from ear to ear, her face looking like a chrysanthemum.

Liu Haizhong's words spoke to her heart.

Qin Huairu also smiled and said: "The second uncle is worthy of being the master in charge, he is sensible!"

Jia Zhang also said: "Yes, it is much better than when Lao Yi was in charge! This is called convincing people with reason!"

Listening to their words, Liu Haizhong was even more intoxicated and felt very comfortable.

But Yi Zhonghai was not so happy.

He wanted to continue arguing, but Liu Haizhong waved his hand and said, "It's getting late. Everyone should go back to the house. Don't watch the fun here."

"And you, Lao Yi, if you want to hold a general meeting in the future, you must report to me here."

After Liu Haizhong finished speaking, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang immediately went back to the house.

The onlookers were tired after watching them argue for a long time without any resolution. Now that Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang had gone back to their houses, they knew there was no more fun to watch, so they all went back to their homes.

went.

Yi Zhonghai saw everyone leaving one after another. He couldn't call back, so he slammed the table angrily. Silly Zhu beside him said, "Master, please don't be angry. It seems that I won't come back with this money."

Already."

"Qin Huairu is not someone who refuses to pay back money. She really has no money. If she had money, she would definitely pay you back..."

From the beginning of the general meeting of the hospital, Sha Zhu was sitting in the crowd and watching. If the first uncle Yi Zhonghai was quarreling with others and asking for money from others, Sha Zhu would have rushed to help Yi Zhonghai long ago.

However, the person Yi Zhonghai is quarreling with now is Qin Huairu, his silly goddess, the one he kneels and licks every day, so how can he help her?

So, Si Zhu also hid in the crowd, leaving Yi Zhonghai to fight alone.

Seeing that the matter had been settled and the money would not come back soon, Shazhu had no choice but to persuade Yi Zhonghai.

However, as Silly Zhu was talking, he saw that Yi Zhonghai couldn't breathe, his eyes went dark, and he fainted.

Seeing this, Shazhu quickly stepped forward to support him, shouting "Master" and helped him into the house.

Looking at the mess in the house, the pots and stoves were cold, no cooking was done at night, and the floor hadn't been swept for a long time.

There was a layer of dust on the table.

Yi Zhonghai took Sha Zhu's hand and said, "Zhu Zhu, can you do me a favor?"

Silly Zhu immediately said: "Master, if you need anything, just ask! I will help you if I can! As long as it's not a loan!"

This month's salary hasn't been paid yet, and most of Shazhu's money has been lent to Qin Huairu, so he has long been out of money.

Even if he wanted to borrow it now, it would be impossible.
