The life of Lao Liu since 1944

Chapter 166 The 1st General Meeting of the Academy

"Oh, help! Someone's killing someone! These are a bunch of heartless bullies! Help, come quickly!"

Hou Jie was completely excited. He didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise. He ate melon seeds faster and faster. His eyes almost popped out. He stared at the Jia family intently. He blinked reluctantly, afraid to miss such a lively scene.

After a long while, everyone walked out of the Jia family with a proud and arrogant look on their faces, like victorious generals, full of spirit.

At the end, someone turned around and said "Pooh" to the Jia family. He cursed in a low voice, "Pooh, you shameless bastard, you are nothing. If you keep talking nonsense, I will punish you."

Jia Zhang, who stayed in the room, was crying, with snot and tears running down her face. She looked even more miserable. There were more holes in her clothes, and her hair was like chicken feathers, even more messy. She sat on the ground, covered in dust and dirt, and her shoes were missing.

The people who saw it had all kinds of expressions, some gloating, some grinning.

There are also bachelors who look around with lustful eyes, which is really out of line. With this image, there is no beauty to speak of.

Everyone went home. Seeing that there was no more excitement to watch, Hou Jie stopped eating melon seeds, patted his butt, stood up, and strolled back to the backyard.

The godmother who was watching the fun in the room had been paying attention to everything. After all, the Jia family lived next door to her and she would know if there was any movement.

From the look of his godson's bashful expression, he knew it was his doing again, and he smiled helplessly.

"You are so naughty! What are you doing? You always target the Jia family."

"Although Jia Zhangshi is a bit sharp-tongued, likes to take advantage of others, and is unreasonable."

The godmother seemed to have thought of something and patted her forehead.

"Eh? Just ignore what I said."

Godmother thinks

"It's okay to deal with Jia Zhang. The men work outside every day and don't know her. But she is Jia Zhang's neighbor. After a long time, she knows Jia Zhang's character. She is not only lazy and greedy, but also has a bad mouth. She swears every day and is annoying."

I thought the matter was over, but when the man got home, his wife got angry after nagging him.

This is related to the expenses of one's own family, as workers have limited income.

It would be fine if I didn't know, but when I suddenly heard that it would be an additional expense, I was not happy.

Let’s not talk about it for now. When Jia Dongxu got home, he saw the house was in a state of burglary. He also looked at his mother’s miserable appearance.

The crying look in her eyes made Jia Dongxu's scalp tingle. He stood there as if struck by lightning, unable to speak for a long time.

No doubt, my mother is in trouble again.

"He must have done something wrong in his previous life to have ended up with a mother like this. This is going to take his life."

With great tacit understanding, several men discussed together and started beating the big gong in the yard.

People who heard the noise gradually gathered in the open space in the middle courtyard, because the open space in the middle courtyard was the largest and more people could sit there.

In the past, when there were major events, people would gather here to deal with the problems.

Hou Jie watched everyone's actions and followed them on tiptoe. He had only lived here for a short time, and the things happening in the yard were so interesting.

The Siheyuan General Meeting has already begun. I am really curious about what will happen. If I am right, it will be about the afternoon food.

Hou Jie was just trying to watch the fun and making wild guesses. If this was true, he felt a little sympathetic towards Jia Zhang.

Hou Jie touched the corners of his eyes hypocritically, but there were no real tears. He said with false affection:

"Ms. Jia Zhang, you are so pitiful. You can kill yourself. I will definitely treat you better in the future. Woo woo woo!"

After saying that, he walked towards the middle courtyard and ran straight to his godmother. He placed the small stool next to his godmother, sat down, and took out the seemingly endless amount of melon seeds from his pocket and gave some to his godmother.

The close intimacy between the two made godmother smile so hard that her eyes curved into crescents.

When Sha Zhu, Xu Damao and a group of other children saw that Hou Jie had something delicious in his hand, they all ran over to ask for some melon seeds.

Hou Jie accepted everyone who came and everyone got some.

The adults were more reserved; some brought their own snacks, while others were too embarrassed to ask.

At this time, Hou Jie turned his head and saw his godfather. Although he felt a little disgusted, he still pretended to smile and handed him a handful of melon seeds.

The deaf old lady Yi Zhonghai smiled and stretched out her hand, accepting Hou Jie's kindness, and her evaluation of him increased a little.

She thought to herself, "This child is really good. Ever since my wife adopted him as her godson, our family has enjoyed a lot of blessings."

She also did not forget the deaf old lady and gave her a handful of snacks, which made her very happy.

"What a good child! Even at this time, he hasn't forgotten his grandma."

The surroundings were crowded with people, children were running around, adults were shouting, it was very lively.

After the crowds gathered, Xu Fugui invited Yi Zhonghai to preside over the meeting. The reason why he asked Yi Zhonghai was because Yi Zhonghai had the highest status and salary in the factory, followed by Liu Haizhong. After all, this was the courtyard of the steel mill, and the majority of the people were workers.

Yi Zhonghai was about to stand up to preside over the meeting when Hou Jie pulled him back and asked Xu Fugui, "Uncle Xu, what's going on today? Can you tell me?"

Yi Zhonghai looked puzzled, but he still stopped and let Hou Jie finish his words.

Xu Fugui did not hide it from Hou Jie, knowing that this kid had some money at home and it would be hard to offend him.

"Nothing much, just the issue of buying food for the yard in the afternoon."

Hou Jie understood immediately and decided on his own, so he refused on behalf of Yi Zhonghai:

"Then my godfather, I can't host this time. I have to avoid suspicion. Don't you think so? Uncle Xu."

Xu Fugui thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"That's true. We should really avoid suspicion."

Since then, Yi Zhonghai has held a general meeting to deal with the Jia family's problems. Because of the word "avoid suspicion", he has suffered a lot. Xu Fugui turned to Liu Haizhong and said:

"It seems that Lao Liu needs you to take action this time. Lao Yi can't host this time."

Liu Haizhong was excited. He was a fan of officials and was very active in this kind of limelight. However, he was always suppressed by Yi Zhonghai and could not stand out.

Liu Haizhong agreed hastily, his eyes gleaming with anticipation and pride. He had finally waited for an opportunity to demonstrate his abilities, and was secretly glad that Yi Zhonghai could not preside over the meeting this time.

Xu Fugui looked at Liu Haizhong and felt helpless. He knew Liu Haizhong's character and that he would become arrogant and domineering once he got power, but there was no better choice at the moment.

Hou Jie watched all this, his mouth slightly raised, and he smiled secretly in his heart. He knew Liu Haizhong very well, and knew that there would definitely be a good show next. At the same time, he also understood that this show would bring a lot of trouble to Yi Zhonghai.

As time goes by, the whole institute meeting is about to be held, and everyone is waiting for the opening of this big show...

"He has been suffering in his bangs! He has been suffering in his bangs for a long time."

Liu Haizhong sat in the middle of the crowd. He first slightly adjusted his sitting posture, then slowly stood up and walked to the front of the crowd. He cleared his throat, imitated the leader's speaking posture, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly, as if every step was under control.

He struck a few poses, looking around and then nodding slightly, his movements slow but noticeable, as if he was demonstrating his authority and confidence every second.

Finally, when everyone began to feel a little impatient, Liu Haizhong spoke.

Believe it or not, if Liu Haizhong had spoken one second later, everyone would have wanted to eat him.
