Terrified, Jia Zhangshi threw a tantrum, hoping to get away with it.
Unfortunately, the traditional courtyard house had long since been reformed. Yan Fugui angrily rebuked, "Jia Zhangshi, if you dare to cause trouble again, you'll be going to the police station for investigation and sentencing!"
"That's right! Jia Zhangshi and her son conspired to hire someone to slander Zheng Ya. Their intentions are extremely malicious. They should be handed over to the police station and brought to justice." Old Shen suggested loudly, clearly disliking this shrew from the bottom of his heart.
Do they still think that the current compound is ruled by Yi Zhonghai and Old Lady Long, who run a one-man show, cover up the truth, and support Jia Zhangshi to cause trouble, so that they can lead the people in the compound to do whatever they want?
The choice between cultivating bad habits and fostering a new atmosphere of supporting the country and its people is a matter of personal consideration; even a fool would make the right choice.
At the very least, one could imagine that by attaching oneself to Zheng Ya, one could live a good life.
For this one reason alone, everyone in the courtyard stood up and denounced Jia Zhangshi and her son: "Jia Zhangshi, you shrew, you did something wrong but don't repent. Just send you to the police station to be dealt with according to the law."
"I suggest we send Jia Zhangshi to the countryside. We can't tolerate such a shrew in our courtyard."
"Jia Zhangshi and her son are just troublemakers in the yard; they must be thrown out to stop them from disgusting people."
"Jia Dongxu, get out here and take your mother back to the countryside. Don't ever come back!"
"Jia Dongxu, are you dead? You made a mistake but won't admit it or correct it. You think you can live in our compound? You're dreaming!"
"Get out! Our compound won't tolerate wicked people like you!"
The people in the courtyard became more and more agitated as they talked, almost to the point of rushing into Jia Zhangshi's house, smashing things, and driving everyone away.
This made Liu Haizhong, who was hiding in the crowd and crying, feel extremely fortunate. The anger of the masses was terrifying. The whole courtyard belonged to Zheng Ya's family!
Seeing that he could no longer hide, Jia Dongxu braced himself and went out of the house. With a mournful expression, he clasped his hands and bowed to the people in the yard to apologize: "Old and young men and women in the yard, I'm sorry."
My mom is getting senile. If she doesn't cooperate with Liu Haizhong to set a good example for everyone in our compound and make up for her mistakes, I'll personally send her to the countryside!
I promise I will keep my word. I beg you all to give my son and me a chance. Thank you.
"Waaah, I'll cooperate, okay?" Jia Zhangshi cried and gave in, but she was also panicking. Oh no, things have changed?
Throwing tantrums and rolling on the ground no longer works?
Summoning a spirit is a death sentence, isn't it?
How am I supposed to manage this? Why is my life so miserable?
Seeing that Zheng Ya had truly subdued Liu Haizhong and Jia Zhangshi with just a few words, Yan Fugui said with admiration, "Alright, since Zheng Ya is so magnanimous, he will give you a chance to repent and start anew."
It is also on behalf of the entire hospital to make up for the mistake, and our hospital will also send people to follow up and maintain order.
I hope you will handle this matter seriously and not tarnish the reputation of our entire institute.
"No, I will definitely do my job well!" Liu Haizhong replied with a stiff upper lip, feeling like he was being pricked by a thorn in his side. He should have been happy, but he just couldn't feel happy at all.
Representing the entire hospital was something he had always dreamed of.
If handled well, it will create a positive image of an official with authority, which is a great thing!
But he knew his own limitations. He never thought about anything related to national honor, serving the people wholeheartedly, or contributing to the country.
His dream was to be an official who wielded power and abuse his authority, and to accept bribes and money.
These two paths diverged, leaving him in a state of confusion and panic.
As for Jia Zhangshi, she's a complete scoundrel; does she really think she can get away with this?
However, Jia Dongxu intends to personally supervise her actions as a mother and make up for the mistakes Zheng Ya made by doing a good job!
Otherwise, Jia Dongxu felt that the case of conspiring with Dou Tong to commit murder was about to be exposed!
Sha Zhu's safe return proves that the truth of the case has been revealed.
Jia Dongxu was afraid that if his secret was exposed and Sha Zhu and Zheng Ya both testified against him, he would be doomed.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to complete the task assigned by Zheng Ya so that there is a chance to make amends and avoid imprisonment!
Seeing that the matter had been arranged, Zheng Ya smiled and said, "Alright, let's proceed with this matter as decided."
In addition, my planting base will be completed soon, which has attracted the attention of people in the yard and the surrounding neighborhood.
Everyone is eyeing the work positions at the planting base.
Taking this opportunity of the meeting, I would like to give everyone an explanation to avoid any misunderstandings among the residents and neighbors, which could have a negative impact.
Alright, enough chit-chat. My point about this is simple: competitive hiring, survival of the fittest!
Of course, my planting base has standards for hiring people; character, quality, and ability to handle affairs are all indispensable.
In short, my planting base does not employ idle people or bad people; it only accepts outstanding talents who are going to the international market.
The number of people to be recruited is tentatively set: ten from the institute, ten from the surrounding neighborhoods, and ten through public recruitment.
This is the greatest favor I can offer to everyone in the institute; I hope you will all take it seriously. That's all I have to say.
"Clap clap clap!" People in the courtyard clapped and cheered excitedly, showing their support.
I can't afford to make a bad first impression.
Of course, people like Xu Damao, Jia Dongxu, Jia Zhangshi, and Liu Haizhong all knew that Zheng Ya had already excluded them and that they had no chance of working at the planting base. They clapped symbolically but their faces darkened.
In comparison, Yi Zhonghai clapped with great enthusiasm, indicating his intention to transform himself into a good person.
However, what he consistently gave Zheng Ya was a hundred points of deceit, and Zheng Ya didn't take him seriously.
The meeting concluded successfully. After Zheng Ya and his family left, the villagers gathered in the courtyard, discussing animatedly: "Uncle, my son is an excellent person, a reliable worker. Could you please put in a good word for him with Zheng Ya and ask him to take him in?"
"That's enough! Can't you see that the Shen family has all quit their jobs?" Old Shen, tapping his pipe, shooed people away, standing shoulder to shoulder with Yan Fugui next to the octagonal table in the meeting room, confronting the crowd that was gathering around them.
Yan Fugui, who was also occupying ten workstations, raised his hand to stop them: "Alright, everyone, be quiet and stop making noise!"
Zheng Ya gave our institute ten workstations at this planting base, which is about one-tenth of our institute's population. It can be said that Zheng Ya gave us extra care.
Compared to the surrounding neighborhoods where there are only ten workstations for every three or four thousand people, this is many times better.
Therefore, we should approach this matter with a grateful heart, and not resort to any underhanded tactics. If we anger Zheng Ya and he fires someone, I'll lose all face, right?
"What do you mean by that, Uncle San?" Sha Zhu was considering quitting his job to work with Zheng Ya, especially since Liu Lan's workstation had already been returned to Dou Tong.
It's like Sha Zhu's family is short of a workstation, so he has no choice but to step in.
But Yan Fugui's words were vague and there was something wrong with them!
Yan Fugui realized that Zheng Ya was trying to flatter him to death, and said under great pressure, "Ahem, what I mean is that everyone should ask themselves if they are qualified to join the planting base."
Let's get together again to discuss and decide. That's all, meeting adjourned!
"Uncle, don't go! My child is qualified. You, the manager of this planting base, can register him..." People in the yard swarmed after him to sign up.
