If what he and Yi Zhonghai did were to be exposed, he would be finished.
Seeing Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai exchanging glances, Jia Zhangshi was secretly delighted. "Hmph, at least you, Cui Dake, are decent enough."
Cui Dake watched all this without saying a word. Instead, he picked up the enamel teacup on the table.
I took a sip of water. Ah, this position is really good, it's a pity it's about to be changed. I'm so unwilling to accept it.
After a long silence, Yi Zhonghai replied in a deep voice, "Alright, we agree to what you said, however..."
Cui Dake, let me ask you, this Jia Zhangshi isn't going to be staying at our house too, is she?"
Yi Zhonghai stated his bottom line directly: supporting Jia Zhangshi was fine, it just meant adding another mouth to feed.
But if Jia Zhangshi were to move into their own home, that wouldn't do, absolutely not.
"Hmph, who lives in your house? I have a home," Jia Zhangshi said angrily.
That damned Yi Zhonghai, how dare he humiliate me like that.
Hmph, you publicly declared you'd support me, huh? Watch how I torment Qin Huairu, you little brat!
Upon hearing what Jia Zhangshi said, everyone glanced speechlessly towards the central courtyard.
Good heavens, this is it?? A house without a roof, and you call it a home?? Even a dog wouldn't live here.
Only you, Jia Zhangshi, would care about that. And looking at the sky, it's likely to rain tonight.
"Let's see how you sleep tonight!" Everyone was filled with anticipation at this thought.
Just then, Ma Hua pushed his bicycle in from outside. As soon as he entered the courtyard,
Ma Hua frowned. Good heavens, are they having meetings every day? Even the Emperor himself couldn't stand this.
When Cui Dake saw Ma Hua return, he immediately scolded Ma Hua, "Ma Hua, why don't you find a place to sit down? Can't you see we're in a meeting?"
"Tsk tsk, if you hadn't said you were in a meeting, I would have thought you were chatting. Goodness!"
You guys are really bored. Wouldn't it be better to spend that time reading quotations? What's with all this meetings?
"What a waste of time," Ma Hua said dismissively.
Ma Hua's dismissive tone infuriated Cui Dake, but Ma Hua continued speaking...
Cui Dake dared not refute, and looked at Ma Hua with anger and grievance.
After Ma Hua parked his bicycle, he carried his small stool to his designated spot.
Then he asked his neighbor, "What did they talk about in the meeting just now?"
"Ahem, they didn't say much, just that Qin Huairu should support Jia Zhangshi," the neighbor said with a sigh.
Upon hearing this, Ma Hua was taken aback at first, but then he understood.
This explains why Jia Zhangshi stopped causing trouble for Cui Dake.
Wow, so that's why. This Cui Dake is really something else, impressive!
"That's all for my matter with Jia Zhangshi. Now I have something more important to announce."
Cui Dake first glanced around before shouting loudly to the crowd.
"That is, I, Cui Dake, feel that my abilities are limited, so I am directly resigning from my position as the eldest uncle in our courtyard."
Cui Dake said slowly.
Upon hearing this, everyone was completely bewildered. What was going on with Cui Dake?
We remember Cui Dake just took over the position of "Grandpa" yesterday, so what happened?
Liu Haizhong, who was sitting around watching the commotion, felt his previously cold and uninteresting heart immediately warm up when he heard Cui Dake say that.
What? Cui Dake isn't going to be the old man of the courtyard house anymore? Nobody wants to be the old man of the courtyard house anymore?? Then I'll be it.
Liu Haizhong's burning gaze met Yan Bugui's. Hmph. Yan Bugui, I hope you'll know what's good for you.
Although Yan Bugui was looking at Liu Haizhong, he wasn't thinking about wanting to be a big shot.
Is there something fishy about this? After all, Cui Dake only served for one day, and now he's just quitting?
Is this a joke, or does Cui Dake think he's incompetent and doesn't know how to do it? Or is there some other conspiracy?
"I know, everyone's probably wondering, how did I, Cui Dake, become the head of the courtyard house?"
Why am I resigning today? The reason is simple.
I discovered that there's someone in our courtyard who's more capable than me.
"That person, it's him." Cui Dake raised his voice, glancing around.
Liu Haizhong became even more excited when he saw Cui Dake looking at him earlier.
What does Cui Dake mean? Does he realize that the person in my bangs is that great talent?
"That person, it's... it's Xu Damao!!" Cui Dake felt he had whetted everyone's appetite enough before slowly saying this.
"Wow!" Everyone looked at Xu Damao with some confusion after hearing Cui Dake's words. What was going on?
Why would Cui Dake recommend Xu Damao? Didn't Xu Damao recommend Cui Dake yesterday?
So you two are just pushing and shoving each other around. Are you playing around with this?
Cui Dake noticed the change in everyone's expressions and hurriedly explained, "Everyone, we're not joking around."
Leader Xu is truly talented. I believe that under the leadership of Leader Xu Damao, our courtyard house will thrive.
It will definitely get better and better, and achieve even greater success.
Everyone understood the implication in Cui Dake's words: Leader Xu? What's the deal with Xu Damao? What kind of leader is he?
Isn't he just a movie projectionist at a steel mill? Why would Cui Dake say that?
Cui Dake is a member of the sports meet, he's not an ordinary person.
Someone in the know explained to the crowd, "Xu Damao is not the same Xu Damao as before."
"He's now the group leader for our steel rolling mill's sports meet, and he's Director Li's subordinate,"
"Oh," everyone exclaimed, finally understanding. So that's what Cui Dake was doing.
