But now the deaf old lady dared not tell Liu Haizhong that she had only been fooling him before.
This guy with those bangs is a complete fanatic of officialdom.
If he finds out that I've been lying to him all along, I'm doomed.
In addition, a rift has now developed between Yi Zhonghai and himself.
This is the best knife I can find right now, hidden in my bangs.
Thinking of this, the deaf old lady quickly pretended to be troubled: "Yes, Xiao Liu, if you really think that way..."
I'm so relieved, old lady! I was right about you after all.
You are indeed a born leader, unlike them, who disregard the collective honor of our courtyard."
When Liu Haizhong heard the old lady praise him like that, he was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes.
God knows how many years it's been since I graduated from primary school, and this is the first time I've heard someone praise me like this.
Faced with the old lady's praise, Liu Haizhong nodded repeatedly, "Yes, old lady, you're right!"
The old lady felt like throwing up when she saw Liu Haizhong's expression.
Is this hairstyle, with its ridiculously clumsy bangs, really going to work?
Don't end up making yourself cry from stupidity. But right now, the old lady doesn't have any better ideas.
The old lady pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "You mean,
Now Yan Bugui is just standing by and watching. Yi Zhonghai is hiding at home, leaving Cuihua alone to clean?
Liu Haizhong nodded. Yes, he had just said that.
"Hai Zhong, do you know why you were only the second eldest uncle in our courtyard house before?"
The old lady was dumbfounded when she saw the angry look in Liu Haizhong's eyes.
What was he resentful about? But the old lady quickly understood.
"Hmph, it's just that Old Yi and the others are jealous of me, jealous of my talent. Otherwise, how could I only be the second oldest in our compound?"
Liu Haizhong's eyes were filled with anger and resentment, as if he was venting his frustration and unfulfilled ambitions over the years.
The old lady almost laughed out of anger when she heard Liu Haizhong say that. She tried her best to calm her disgust.
He slowly shook his head and said, word by word, "Wrong. Your biggest problem isn't your ability, but that you don't know how to put on a show!"
"A show!!" Liu Haizhong asked, somewhat puzzled, after hearing the old lady's words. What did she mean by "a show"?
"Yes, it's all a show. Do you remember when Lao Yi's reputation and prestige in our courtyard started to rise?"
"He said he would adopt me, an old lady, and the orphan of the He family, but that was just a show!" the old lady said slowly.
Liu Haizhong fell into deep thought. The old lady seemed to be right; back then, he and Old Yi were both old men living in the same courtyard house.
Previously, he spoke and acted with the same authority as Yi Zhonghai, but it seems that after Yi Zhonghai mentioned in the courtyard that he would begin supporting the elderly lady and the orphans of the He family,
His reputation improved, and he gradually gained the upper hand.
"Grandma, I understand. I'll tell the people in the yard right away."
"I'll take care of you and those two from the He family from now on," Liu Haizhong said excitedly. If Yi Zhonghai can do it, so can he.
When the old lady heard Liu Haizhong say that, she almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "Rotten wood cannot be carved, rotten wood cannot be carved!"
Sha Zhu and Yu Shui are both so big now, and they're both at work. What are you going to support?
If you say you're going to support someone now, most people will probably think you're taking advantage of them.
However, this old woman can make some plans, after all, Liu Haizhong's salary isn't low.
I saw it clearly; this old man gets fried eggs every night.
The old lady thought for a moment, then coughed a few times: "Zhonghai, that's not what I meant. I meant you're just putting on a show."
It's for show, like how Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi are now facing provocation from outsiders.
Everyone else backed down, but you were the only one who charged forward. You tell me, your prestige in the courtyard must be unparalleled.
As the old lady spoke, she gave a thumbs-up to her bangs.
Upon hearing the old lady's words, Liu Haizhong's eyes lit up. "Yes, why didn't I think of that?"
The courtyard house is now in dire straits; only I, the hero, can save it. Indeed, indeed.
Seeing that Liu Haizhong was deep in thought, the old lady quickly explained her plan.
He didn't want this person with such low emotional intelligence to ruin all his carefully laid plans.
"Zhonghai, if you just do this, do this, and I promise you, I'll make sure you not only live in the courtyard house, but also in our alley."
"Let's make a big splash, so everyone in the alley can see just how capable Liu Haizhong from our courtyard house really is."
After the deaf old woman finished explaining her plan to Liu Haizhong, she was still worried that Liu Haizhong wouldn't believe her.
He continued to draw big pie shapes in his bangs and around his ears.
Upon hearing the old lady's words, Liu Haizhong nodded repeatedly, his eyes practically overflowing with satisfaction.
"Great plan!" After quickly thanking the old lady, he headed home.
