Chapter 522 Hated
On the way to the Intermediate People's Court, Xu Damao still complained to Li Qin, thinking that the three stewards were crazy for calling a meeting in the freezing cold.
Hearing Xu Damao's words, Li Qin suddenly realized;
"I was wondering why it was always the Liu family who came to notify us of meetings in the backyard before. Why was it He Yuzhu this time? Oh, I see."
A look of sudden realization flashed across Li Qin's eyes.
Holding a hospital-wide meeting in this weather, I'm sure Xu Damao isn't the only one dissatisfied.
Many other residents are probably in the same situation.
In this situation, whoever notifies you of the meeting will inevitably be blamed.
Although Liu Haizhong was not very bright, Liu Guangqi was not stupid; on the contrary, he was very clever.
I'm sure I could think of these things.
Therefore, instead of the Liu family's people coming to inform them, He Yuzhu was sent instead.
Moreover, Li Qin was certain that the person who made He Yuzhu do this was Yi Zhonghai from the Intermediate People's Court.
Because Liu Haizhong couldn't command He Yuzhu at all, and in this courtyard, He Yuzhu only listened to two people.
One was the deaf old woman in the backyard, and the other was Yi Zhonghai.
Although the deaf old woman also had some ulterior motives towards He Yuzhu, she wouldn't let him do something that would bring him no reward.
Only someone like Yi Zhonghai, who treats He Yuzhu as a tool, would be so indifferent to He Yuzhu's situation as to make him do such things.
Li Qin even felt that Yi Zhonghai was very happy to see He Yuzhu's relationship with the courtyard house residents deteriorate.
Because He Yuzhu was not well-liked in the courtyard, he relied more and more on Yi Zhonghai and followed closely behind him.
After understanding all this, Li Qin couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for He Yuzhu.
This guy was really outmaneuvered.
However, this is just the beginning. Once Jia Dongxu sends it, there will be even more and more ruthless people plotting against He Yuzhu.
In the original storyline, He Yuzhu was essentially schemed against his entire life.
However, when Li Qin thought of He Yuzhu's detestable personality, the little bit of sympathy that had just risen in his heart vanished instantly.
If He Yuzhu hadn't offended Li Qin, then Li Qin might have helped He Yuzhu out of a good mood.
But Li Qin has no intention of changing He Yuzhu's fate of being schemed against.
Although Li Qin was a time traveler, he had long since let go of his desire to help others and had learned to respect the fate of others.
Of course, this is on the premise that this person has no relation to Li Qin.
Friends like Xu Damao, who had a good relationship with Li Qin, are another matter.
As a friend, Li Qin naturally couldn't bear to see Xu Damao end up abandoned by everyone.
Li Qin and his two companions arrived at the Central Court and casually found a place to sit down.
The three managers probably knew that it wasn't appropriate to hold a meeting in this weather, and that dragging it out would only make people resentful.
Therefore, Yi Zhonghai and his two companions did not wait for everyone to arrive before making their appearance.
Instead, they started playing as soon as most people arrived.
It was the same familiar table, the same familiar seat, the same familiar throne.
"Alright, let's begin the meeting, everyone please be quiet."
Liu Haizhong first patted the table and said.
Upon hearing his words, the people around him, to save face, all fell silent and turned their gazes toward the three stewards.
Seeing that he could make everyone obey with just a word, Liu Haizhong's twisted desire for officialdom was instantly satisfied.
A satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.
Compared to Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai was more aware that this was not the time for idle talk, so after calming down, he immediately spoke up: "I know that the weather is cold and it is not appropriate to call everyone out for a meeting under these circumstances, but the matter to be discussed in this meeting concerns everyone."
So please be understanding.
Although Yi Zhonghai's words sounded nice, it was impossible for him to dispel everyone's dissatisfaction with just a few words.
However, with Yi Zhonghai's words, at least everyone's expressions weren't as unpleasant as before.
"Sir, just tell me directly what the purpose of this meeting is."
A resident sitting not far from Li Qin tightened his clothes and then spoke very directly.
Upon hearing this, everyone around nodded in agreement.
Many people were rubbing their hands together incessantly at this moment.
This is to alleviate the feeling of cold.
Yi Zhonghai noticed the impatience on many people's faces and knew that this was not the time for idle chatter, so he said directly: "There are two main reasons for holding this plenary meeting."
Yi Zhonghai glanced around at everyone, and seeing that everyone's attention had been drawn to him, he continued, "The first thing is about everyone's safety."
"The weather is getting colder every day. I know that everyone has the habit of burning stoves at home to keep warm, but everyone should pay attention to some things."
When using a stove indoors, make sure to ensure proper ventilation, otherwise an accident can easily occur.
At this time, many households did not have thick cotton clothes or quilts, and the only way to keep warm was by the fire.
But fireplaces are not something that ordinary households can afford to install.
Therefore, the only option was to bring the coal stove inside the house for use.
In order to prevent the heat from the stove from dissipating, many inexperienced people will keep their doors and windows tightly closed.
However, this makes carbon monoxide poisoning extremely likely.
Furthermore, because the coal briquette technology at that time was not very good, there were many impurities inside the coal briquettes.
Combustion not only produces carbon dioxide, but also other harmful gases.
It might not be a big deal in the short term, but the real concern is that people might still have the coal stove inside the house while they sleep at night.
One can easily get poisoned while sleeping.
The whole family can play together then.
Everyone's expression changed immediately upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's words.
We've all heard of accidents caused by using stoves, and there are quite a few of them.
Not to mention the whole country, in Beijing alone, every winter some people die because of improper use of coal stoves for heating.
Seeing that everyone's expressions had become serious, Yi Zhonghai continued, "As for the second matter, it is about winter storage vegetables. The neighborhood committee asked us to inform everyone that this year's winter storage vegetables can be purchased starting next month."
If possible, it's best to go early so that the vegetables you buy will be of better quality.
If you arrive late, you'll only get what's left over.
Upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's second point, everyone's faces immediately lit up with interest.
This concerns everyone's meals going forward, so we can't afford to take it seriously.
In fact, the so-called winter storage vegetables are just some cabbages or radishes.
With the end of the year fast approaching, this is something the authorities have prepared specifically for residents.
Although they are just some ordinary vegetables, they are already very good.
After buying vegetables for winter storage, residents usually store them in cellars to preserve them using the natural cold weather.
Under normal circumstances, it can even be preserved for several months.
At this point, Yi Zhonghai continued, "I suggest that we all agree on a time to go and buy vegetables for winter storage together, so that we can look out for and help each other."
The surrounding residents immediately showed a strange look in their eyes.
When people buy vegetables for winter storage, they usually buy a lot, so it's easy for accidents to happen if you go alone.
It would be much more convenient to go in a group.
