At this moment, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, and had been looking forward to the big show for a long time, plus there were occasional whispers, communicating information.
So the atmosphere was very lively.
"What do you mean by this?"
Chen Jianye looked calmly at the people in front of him.
After finishing his meal, he strolled around the Courtyard twice to aid digestion, and then had to study Carpentry books.
To be honest, if there was nothing major, Chen Jianye was unwilling to spend his time dealing with relationships with people in the Courtyard.
Arguing was a very time-consuming thing for Chen Jianye.
"Chen Jianye, the Security Section has canceled the preferential treatment for our Jia, do you know?"
Jia Zhangshi was the first to attack.
"I don't know, and I don't want to know."
"It has nothing to do with me."
Chen Jianye shook his head.
"How is it not related to you? It's because you took our family's agreement to the Security Section that the Security Section canceled the agreement for our family."
"And you used my family's agreement to exchange for a lot of benefits from the Security Section, you have harmed my family terribly!"
Jia Zhangshi was furious.
"My father sacrificed himself in the factory, and the factory should give subsidies. I only took the part I should have taken."
"As for why the Security Section canceled the preferential treatment for your family, you should go to the Security Section. It's useless to find me."
Chen Jianye said indifferently.
"Don't stray too far. Now we are talking about you getting benefits, while my Jia has suffered heavy losses."
"You stepped on my Jia to get a bicycle and other benefits from the Security Section. Logically, you should compensate our family."
Jia Zhangshi shouted loudly.
"No money."
Chen Jianye spread his hands.
Jia Zhangshi stomped her feet in anger, wishing she could swallow Chen Jianye whole, flesh and skin, in a furious gulp.
"Chen Jianye, you took the agreement signed by Jia and the Security Section, you should have given it to Jia."
Yi Zhonghai's tone was heavy.
"What a joke. I bought the agreement from Third Master for ten yuan. Why should I give it to Jia?"
"Why don't you ask Third Master to give it to Jia?"
Chen Jianye laughed in anger.
What a strange way of thinking.
So he should just sacrifice himself.
"I have already criticized Old Yan, and he has accepted my criticism."
"Now we are talking about your matter. How much trouble have you caused the Leader of the Security Section, Bai Ping, with Jia's agreement?"
Yi Zhonghai lectured.
"Who said I caused trouble for the Leader of the Security Section? Are you the chair under the Leader's butt or the table under his arm? How do you know?"
"Why don't you call Yan Kun and Hong Shengcai over now and ask them in front of everyone if I caused them any trouble?"
Chen Jianye's words were sharp, giving no quarter.
The many residents of the Siheyuan (Courtyard) watching the show burst into laughter.
They whispered among themselves that Yi Zhonghai was talking nonsense.
The Leader hadn't said anything yet, and you already knew everything.
Yi Zhonghai's face flushed red, and he conceded defeat.
Thump!
Deaf Old Lady pounded her cane heavily on the ground.
Her sudden action brought everyone's discussion to a halt.
Everyone looked at Deaf Old Lady, waiting for the most senior Deaf Old Lady in the Courtyard to speak.
"Chen Jianye, you're a big young man, why are you comparing yourself to the Jia orphans and widow?"
"The Security Section gives preferential treatment to Jia out of pity and care for Jia. But you, you took the preferential treatment that the Security Section gave to Jia and demanded the same treatment for yourself."
"What is this? You stole the treatment that rightfully belonged to Jia."
Deaf Old Lady said in a deep voice.
Everyone listened and felt that Deaf Old Lady's words made sense.
From the sound of it, it seemed that Chen Jianye got the agreement and completely took over the treatment the Security Section gave to Jia.
The Security Section canceled the preferential treatment for Jia and turned around and gave it to Chen Jianye.
Upon reflection, it indeed seemed like Chen Jianye had stolen Jia's treatment.
"Old Lady, Jia Dongxu is gone. Besides the compensation from the factory, Jia also received some subsidies from the factory."
"My father is gone, why can't I receive it?"
"What, are the lives of Jia Family members lives, and the lives of my Chen Family members not lives?"
Chen Jianye sneered.
"That's not the same thing. You, a grown man, constantly compare yourself to the Jia orphans and widow. Are you still a man?"
"If your father were alive and saw you like this, he would slap you."
Deaf Old Lady said self-righteously.
"Heh, with words like that, if my father could come back to life, I'd even return the compensation from the factory."
"You just flap your mouth, but can you bring my father back to life?"
Chen Jianye scoffed.
"Everyone saw it, Chen Jianye is not a good person, he's pushing my family to a dead end!"
Jia Zhangshi threw a tantrum.
Chen Jianye's face darkened, and he raised his leg, walking towards Jia Zhangshi.
Jia Zhangshi quickly ran towards Jia.
Deaf Old Lady, leaning on her cane, stood with Jia Zhangshi. She thought Chen Jianye was going to attack her and ran quickly.
Yi Zhonghai also ran.
Their behavior was summed up in one sentence:
Fight! I'll run first!
Run! I'll still run first!
In front of everyone in the Courtyard, no one wanted to be a human punching bag and endure Chen Jianye's wrath.
The physical pain was minor; the main thing was not to lose face.
The front of Chen Family's gate was instantly empty.
"Don't stand in front of my door anymore."
"In short, I won't pay a single cent in compensation. Everything I took rightfully belongs to my Chen Family, earned with my father's life."
"Whatever tricks you have, just use them. I'll take them."
Chen Jianye stood at the doorway, his gaze sweeping around, and he laid down harsh words.
He turned and went back into the house, closing the door.
"Chen Jianye, you little rascal, you act without conscience, retribution will come sooner or later!"
Deaf Old Lady, enraged, gripped her cane and continuously pounded the ground.
Inside the house, a cold glint flashed in Chen Jianye's eyes.
Logically, he should have killed Jia Zhangshi and Deaf Old Lady a long time ago.
But the actual situation didn't allow it, or rather, it was too difficult to operate.
Jia Zhangshi was easy to kill, but she was currently in the Pliers worker team, and Chen Jianye didn't want to implicate Squad Leader Wang Lif.
Old Wang was a very good person, meticulous in his work, and also very caring towards him.
Chen Jianye firmly believed that one should act with conscience and not betray an Old Brother.
So, he hadn't been able to act against Jia Zhangshi for a long time.
And Deaf Old Lady?
She was like a loach, primarily characterized by being slippery.
During working hours, Deaf Old Lady wandered around the Courtyard, and Chen Jianye couldn't encounter her.
After getting off work, Deaf Old Lady was hiding in her room in the Backyard.
Chen Jianye couldn't get to her either.
He didn't expect these two disgusting individuals to unite.
Chen Jianye secretly pondered that he had to find an opportunity to kill Deaf Old Lady.
The Old Lady was too old; if he acted against Deaf Old Lady in public, his reputation would be very bad.
As for Jia Zhangshi.
Chen Jianye planned to push for Jia Zhangshi to be transferred to another team.
As soon as Jia Zhangshi changed locations, Chen Jianye would immediately act.
Isn't Jia short of money? Chen Daren can't bear to see the poor suffer, so he'll get a pension for Jia.
Wouldn't that be wonderful?
Chen Jianye was pondering in the house.
"Oh, are you having a meeting in your Courtyard? Everyone's here."
Two Public Security entered the Middle Courtyard, the older Public Security smiling as he spoke.
"Comrade Police, why are you here?"
Yi Zhonghai quickly went to greet him.
He secretly wondered, no one called the police, so why did the Public Security come?
