Chapter 210 Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand it anymore
In the central courtyard of the Jia family, Xiaodang and Huaihua have grown up. The table is filled with dishes made by Qin Huairu and the small stove that Sha Zhu brought back from outside.

Or you could say that Sha Zhu is pitiful. He hasn't even gotten married yet, but Qin Huairu has taken almost all of his salary and special allowance away. Now even Xiao Dang and Huaihua, when they see Sha Zhu coming back with a bag, the first thing they do is to rummage through his bag to find his lunch box.

Banggeng is still the dish that Shazhu brings back.

"Mom, Li Shengli's family in the front yard bought a TV. It's twelve inches big." Xiaodang was gesticulating on the table while eating.

"Just eat your meal. It's none of your business if they bought a TV." Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Xiao Dang in annoyance. Ever since Jia Zhang had a quarrel with Li Shengli more than ten years ago, the Li family would not give any good things to her family. Even when they met, Li Shengli usually pretended not to see it.

A few years ago, I was planning to get along well with Li Shengli's wife. I don't know if Li Shengli said something to someone, but Han Qiuyun didn't even let me in the door. Only Xiaodang and Huaihua could say a few words to her.

"Mom, what are you talking about? I mean, if he has a TV, why doesn't he take it out and put it in the yard?" Xiao Dang only knew that his family didn't seem to have a good relationship with Li Shengli's family, but he didn't know the specific reason. "I saw that the people in the yard next door put their TV outside."

"Don't even think about it. It's impossible. Only Li Shengli wouldn't do that." Jia Zhang interrupted, "That guy is not an easy person to deal with. He started to oppose the people in the compound a few years ago."

Banggeng didn't say anything. He was still worried about what to do with his job. There were only three vacancies in the street office, and Banggeng had neither the ability nor the connections, so it would never be his turn.

"Mom, why don't we go find Grandpa and ask him to come forward?" Xiaodang made a suggestion. The entire compound was watching TV, but there was no movement in their own compound.

Qin Huairu was somewhat tempted by Xiaodang's words. If the TV was placed in the central courtyard, she could watch the show whenever she wanted.

Jia Zhang was also somewhat tempted. To be honest, who wouldn't be tempted by this TV?

"Huairu, go and ask if you can't help it?" Jia Zhang said carefully to Qin Huairu. Ever since Sha Zhu promised to give her three dollars a month for her retirement, Jia Zhang almost didn't care about the affairs of Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu.

"Okay, I'll go ask." Qin Huairu also had her own little thoughts, wondering if she could take this opportunity to ease the relationship with Li Shengli. Li Shengli knew quite a few leaders, so might he be able to introduce a job to her three children?

After dinner, Qin Huairu went to Yi Zhonghai’s house opposite and explained her purpose.

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and felt that this matter was difficult to handle. When he was still the boss of the courtyard, Li Shengli didn't give him face. Now Li Shengli would not give him face even more.

"Uncle, if you can't hold on any longer, talk to other people in the hospital." Qin Huairu made a careful suggestion.

So many people in this yard are envious of Li Shengli's TV.

"No, I'm not the boss of the hospital anymore, I don't have that power anymore." Yi Zhonghai shook his head, "Forget it, I'll go and ask."

Yi Zhonghai first came to Liu Haizhong's house and found Liu Haizhong. At this moment, Liu Haizhong was not as prosperous as before. His two sons had already married and left home. It was said that Liu Guangtian had robbed someone else's big house, and his life was so comfortable.

Liu Haizhong didn't care. Ever since his second son Liu Guangtian became a small leader, he has been looking down on him all day long. He is no longer the second uncle in the courtyard. Besides, he doesn't have the face to persuade others to hand over their property.

Seeing that Liu Haizhong was not going to get involved, Yi Zhonghai had to go to the front yard to find Yan Bugui. Yan Bugui was also unwilling to get involved in this matter.

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and decided to give it a try. Maybe Li Shengli would be willing to obey him.

"Knock, knock, knock." "Li Shengli, are you home?"

Li Shengli, who was resting in the house, was a little puzzled. Why did this old man Yi Zhonghai come? They hadn't dealt with each other for several years.

"Master Yi, is there something wrong?" Li Shengli opened the door and blocked it. He had no intention of letting Yi Zhonghai in.

When Yi Zhonghai saw Li Shengli's attitude, he immediately knew that this matter would most likely not succeed today, but since he was already here, it would be unreasonable not to give it a try.

"Shengli, I heard that you bought a TV." Yi Zhonghai didn't rush to explain his purpose, but started chatting about family matters.

"Yes." Li Shengli nodded.

"It's quite expensive, right? This is the first TV in the hospital," Yi Zhonghai said with a smile, intending to compliment Li Shengli first.

"Master Yi, if you have something to say, just tell me. I don't have time to chat with you." Li Shengli has heard this many times. Before asking someone to do something for you, you always have to compliment them. Li Shengli himself often uses this method.

"Then I'll be frank. There are still many people in our courtyard who have never seen a TV. How about you put the TV outside for everyone to open their eyes?" Yi Zhonghai restrained his smile and did not directly ask Li Shengli to put the TV outside for everyone to watch. He just asked him to open everyone's eyes. After all, this was a precedent, and several large courtyards nearby had done this.

"Sure." Li Shengli finally understood what this man was thinking. Could it be that Yi Zhonghai was planning to become the boss of the courtyard again?

"Really? Then move out quickly. I'll go inform the people in the hospital." Yi Zhonghai was surprised to hear that Li Shengli had changed his personality. He was so obedient this time.

"Wait a minute, Master Yi, I haven't finished speaking yet." Li Shengli looked at Yi Zhonghai's expression and added lightly.

"What's the matter?" Yi Zhonghai stopped smiling, knowing that Li Shengli would not agree so easily.

"It's very simple." Li Shengli rubbed his fingers and made a gesture of asking for money with his hand.

"What do you mean?" Yi Zhonghai didn't expect that Li Shengli still wanted money.

"It's obvious, bring the tickets and money for the TV." Li Shengli looked at Yi Zhonghai with contempt. Why did this guy think he would take out the TV for these people in the yard to watch?

"I won't take advantage of you. Take this TV for 500 yuan." Li Shengli clenched his fist and pointed his thumb towards his room.

Yi Zhonghai originally thought that Li Shengli was planning to collect rent from the people in the yard. It was reasonable to charge some rent for placing the TV outside, but he didn't expect Li Shengli to ask for five hundred yuan.

"You only bought this TV for 420 yuan." Yi Zhonghai was furious.

"There's also money for running errands. I work hard, too. I can't let anyone use it for public purposes just by asking for it." Li Shengli said sarcastically.

Yi Zhonghai paused for a moment, then turned around and left angrily. Li Shengli still didn't give him face and was still so irritating.
