Scholars in the courtyard

As Yan Fugui stated the purpose of the meeting, the scene suddenly became chaotic after a short period of adaptation.

Mrs. Jia Zhang even pinched her waist and looked around, sizing up who could be the master of the courtyard.

Finally, his eyes were on Yang Xiaotao. Thinking of the other person's ability, he snorted coldly to vent his dissatisfaction.

"Ahem. Everyone listen to me."

“After discussion with Comrade Yan Fugui’s request, our sub-district office agreed.”

"Siheyuan is where everyone lives. If we manage the courtyard well together, we can better contribute to the economic construction of the motherland."

Officer Xiao Li said to everyone, and finally looked around, "In this way, we will use a democratic method, let everyone sign up first, and then elect two uncles through voting."

“Does anyone want to serve the people?”

Officer Xiao Li looked at everyone and asked.

There was silence.

Yan Fugui looked at it with a smile, and then looked at Yang Xiaotao.

In his mind, as long as Yang Xiaotao becomes the second uncle, some things can be thrown to him, and he will gain both fame and profit, getting the best of both worlds.

However, the only sound in the scene was the sound of cracking melon seeds, which made Yan Fugui's smile gradually solidify.

Officer Xiao Li looked at the people in the courtyard seriously, waiting for an answer.

Yan Fugui also looked at Yang Xiaotao, hoping that he would stand up.

Many people in the courtyard also looked at Yang Xiaotao with different thoughts.

Some people think that Yang Xiaotao deserves to be the uncle. If he does not do it properly, everyone else who does will be embarrassed.

When the time comes when you become an uncle and you really have things to take care of, it’s okay if Yang Xiaotao listens. If you don’t listen, how can you still quarrel?

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong are examples of this.

Even Teacher Yan was at fault for Yang Xiaotao, and now the Yan family can't take advantage of him.

Of course, some people hope that Yang Xiaotao will become an uncle.

At least once you become an uncle, you have responsibilities and the obligation to help the people in the courtyard.

If any family is in trouble, Yang Xiaotao only needs to make some mistakes to make life easier for the family.

It will be easier to borrow money then, after all, it’s not the uncle.

Boom

Yang Xiaotao spat the melon seeds on the snowdrift with a focused expression, not even looking at the eyes of the people in the courtyard.

Be an uncle?

Are you kidding? You are not busy enough with a lot of things, so who has the time to care about these trivial things?

As for the plans of some people in the courtyard, he also knew very well, and they were jealous and wanted to take advantage of them.

Even Yan Fugui was careful this time, thinking about what he lacked in ability and what he couldn't manage well.

If you can't manage it well, don't do it. You still think about being the first uncle and letting the second and third uncles below charge into the battle. It's too much.

He, Yang Xiaotao, is not stupid. He ran over and used you as a shield.

Boom

The melon seeds kept spitting out, and as time passed, the yard remained quiet.

Officer Xiao Li also noticed that Yang Xiaotao didn't like the elders in the courtyard, and originally thought that letting him take charge of the courtyard would save him a lot of trouble.

But he didn't want the other party to have that intention, so he gave up his plan.

"Guys."

Just when everyone was silent, Qin Huairu suddenly smiled and said, "We have lived in the compound for so long, who is qualified to be this uncle?"

"The most capable person in our hospital is Director Yang, and everyone is convinced."

"I think, let's elect Director Yang to be the boss of our hospital."

After Qin Huairu finished speaking, Jia Zhang looked at her with wide eyes, puzzled.

However, Qin Jingru in the backyard quickly understood what her cousin meant and said quickly, "Yes, who doesn't know the name of Director Yang in our courtyard? I don't think anyone can be this uncle except Director Yang."

"Yes, Director Yang, you can be the uncle."

"I agree. I don't accept anyone except Brother Yang."

"That's right, the old man is convinced that Xiao Tao is the boss."

As the Qin sisters spoke, many people in the courtyard started shouting. Whether it was true or false, the shouts were loud anyway.

Yan Fugui looked on with a smile on his face.

Seeing the crowd's voices getting louder and louder, Yang Xiaotao stood up helplessly, glanced at Qin Huairu who looked expectant, then ignored Yan Fugui's gaze and nodded to Director Li.

"Director Li, and the young and old men in the courtyard."

The surroundings quieted down, Ran Qiuye put little Dragon Boat Festival to sleep and stood at the door watching.

Yang Xiaotao waited for the surroundings to quiet down, and then said affirmatively, "Thank you for your trust and your kindness. We are all from the same hospital, and I, Yang Xiaotao, am honored to receive your support."

"But please understand."

"I have a lot of things at work and limited energy. When I get home, I just think about eating, sleeping, and spending time with my family."

"So, it's better to hire someone else to lead the courtyard. I won't participate."

"Of course, no matter who becomes the master of the courtyard, I, Yang Xiaotao, will support the work. As long as it is for the good of our courtyard and as long as the action is tasteless, I will enthusiastically support it."

After saying that, Yang Xiaotao turned around and walked back into the house.

Who would want to stand outside in such a cold weather with such a trivial matter?

Seeing what Yang Xiaotao said, Officer Li from the Street Office turned around and left, completely showing that he would not get involved. He did not feel reluctant. Instead, he looked at the others and said, "It's good that everyone agrees with Comrade Yang Xiaotao, but also Personal wishes must be considered.”

"Especially Comrade Yang Xiaotao's work involves a lot of energy, so let's elect someone else."

After Mr. Li finished speaking, Yan Fugui was full of disappointment. The biggest financial backer was gone, and half of the purpose of this conference could not be accomplished.

"Do you have any other candidates?"

Officer Li said, and the people around him fell silent again.

"Da Shan, how about you do it?"

Someone suggested that Wang Dashan's family is now a dual-income person. He works in the slaughterhouse and can usually bring back some scraps. Although it is troublesome to process, it is still meat.

In addition, Wang Jun, the eldest son of the family, works as an iron rice bowl in the steel rolling mill and earns a lot in a month. There are also many "affluent" families in this courtyard.

Wang Dashan chuckled and said, "I don't think so. I want you to treat me like this."

"I can only be the second uncle or the third uncle. What's the point of being a good person?"

After Wang Dashan finished speaking, several people around him laughed, "Yes, it's better to be the first uncle than to be the second uncle."

Some people even wonder if Yang Xiaotao doesn't want to be the uncle because he doesn't want to be inferior to Yan Fugui.

Yan Fugui's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Wang Dashan with unkind eyes.

Seeing Wang Dashan's reluctance, Officer Xiao Li realized that this visit to the courtyard would probably be fruitless.

Sure enough, after waiting for another ten minutes, there was still no one willing to be the boss. Director Li didn't wait any longer and said directly, "Since everyone feels that they are not qualified, Comrade Yan Fugui will continue to serve."

After Mr. Li finished speaking, he nodded to Yan Fugui, ignored the twisted face, and turned around to leave.

Immediately, the people in the courtyard also left, leaving Yan Fugui staring at the empty courtyard in a daze.

"Uncle Yan, look, it's getting cold today, and my coal is not yet..."

Qin Huairu stepped forward and complained.

If her family's situation cannot be rated as a "difficult household in a quadrangle", then this quadrangle is completely heartless.

Yan Fugui looked at Qin Huairu's appearance, snorted coldly, turned around and left.

He hasn’t bought it yet.

Qin Huairu was full of astonishment, and Jia Zhang, who was on the side, came over angrily, "Qin Huairu, what do you mean, let Yang Xiaotao be the boss, what do you think?"

Seeing Jia Zhang's stupidity, Qin Huairu didn't bother to explain and went straight home.

Jia Zhang's eyes widened from behind, and her chest was filled with anger.

It's a pity that all the beggars can do is grit their teeth and be ruthless, but it's useless.

Yang family

Ran Qiuye smiled and asked why he wasn't the uncle in the courtyard. Yang Xiaotao spread his hands and put coal in the stove, "We are still young, why should we be the uncle or aunt? It sounds so unpleasant."

"Calling people old for nothing."

Ran Qiuye chuckled, she believed this reason.

"daughter in law!"

"Um?"

"Hey, let's..."

"don't want!"

"I refused even before I said anything."

"It's definitely not good."

"A good thing, definitely a good thing."

Hmm~

The next day, Yang Xiaotao got up and made breakfast. Ran Qiuye was still lying in bed. He ate a lot last night and was not hungry now.

After Yang Xiaotao finished breakfast, he went into the house and kissed Ran Qiuye, then he carried his bag and went out on his bicycle.

Follow familiar roads to the rolling mill.

Along the way, I kept saying hello to people, riding slowly, mentally checking what came out of the exchange column this time.

Aloe gel, Yunnan Baiyao aerosol, antipyretic patch, ibuprofen and pediatric cough syrup.

Overall, it's pretty good stuff.

Anyway, there is no shelf life in the space. Yang Xiaotao made a mistake and bought about ten boxes.

Then came to the steel rolling mill.

Looking at the familiar doorways and familiar buildings, there is always a fresh feeling of returning after being away for a long time.

Put the car away and walk to the office.

"Gong Yang."

"Director Yang is back."

"Good morning, Mr. Yang."

Yang Xiaotao greeted everyone politely, then went up the stairs, and enthusiastic slogans rang out on the radio.

"The horn of battle has sounded. Revolutionary comrades of the new era, let us follow in the footsteps of the Daqing comrades, march forward with high spirits."

"In dealing with your career, you must be an honest person, tell the truth, and do honest things; in dealing with your work, you must have strict requirements, strict organization, serious attitude, and strict discipline."

The sound continued. Yang Xiaotao listened for a while and thought of the large number of large and medium-sized projects that have been established and built in recent years, including many oil fields that have been developed. Daqing Oilfield, Shengli Oilfield and Dagang Oilfield were built one after another. Among them, the one that impressed Yang Xiaotao the most was the Iron Man.

It is precisely with so many iron men that domestic crude oil and petroleum products are increasing day by day, ultimately meeting domestic demand.

This also avoids the loss of domestic foreign exchange and makes an important contribution to domestic economic construction.

Walking into the corridor, Yang Xiaotao remembered that with oil, the design of diesel engines should be put on the agenda.

Thinking mentally, I came to the office and opened the door.

The scene in front of me was still the same, but a little messy. A mark was immediately visible on the table.

Apparently no one had cleaned it in a while.

Putting down his things, he took a wine bottle from his bag and knocked on Yang Youning's office.

"Come in."

"Director."

Yang Xiaotao walked in and watched Yang Youning hurried forward. He knew everything that happened in the steel rolling mill during this period, and he also knew Yang Youning's efforts.

Otherwise, it would really be framed and discredited.

"I finally came to report. I thought you were going to stay in Wenrou Township for a while."

"How can you do that? Public affairs come first. Public affairs come first."

Yang Xiaotao put the wine bottle on the table and said, "Director, I brought you some gifts."

"What kind of wine are you bringing?"

"Okay, let's have a drink with Lao Chen at noon."

Yang Youning looked at the bottle of wine on the table and didn't take it seriously.

"Hey, director, it's best for you and your sister-in-law to drink in this bar. Hehe."

"Um?"

Yang Youning looked at Yang Xiaotao suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

"Hey, this bar is a bit special. The things used are all good things, like deer penises."

"Okay, I get it."

Yang Youning saw that the door was still open and quickly stopped him, then quickly took the bottle and put it into the cabinet.

The speed of receiving gifts is simply amazing.

After putting the things away, he looked at Yang Xiaotao with a deep look, which means, you are on your way.

However, Yang Xiaotao soon felt something was wrong, as if he needed this thing.
