He Shuli's words made the faces of the street office leader who were persuading Du Yuanzhou suddenly turn ugly.
He Shuli showed a mocking expression. In her previous life, her family Du Yuanzhou decided to adopt Yu Dahe, and the leader of the street office were very happy. Not only did he come to her house and say a lot of good things, he also gave them a banner. Apart from this, there was no substantial benefit at all.
He Shuli didn't care about him in her last life, and she cares even less about him in this life. Since Director Liu values this banner so much, can't he just take the three children home and raise them?
Director Liu, the director of the subdistrict office, has a bald head. A strand of his hair draped from the left side to the right side, creating the illusion that he still has hair. He smiled awkwardly, "That's not what I meant, Comrade He. Aren't we making this suggestion because we see that these children of the Yu family have a connection with you?"
He Shuli opened her mouth and spit back: "Who among the people here doesn't have a connection to the three of them? If your family provides them with food and drink, their connection with your family will definitely be deeper than with mine. After all, we are outsiders, how can we compare to your native folks, right? Director Liu, you have such a good heart, so kind, and such a high level of awareness, so this connection is given to you, keep it well."
Director Liu couldn't hold on to his awkward smile because of He Shuli's words. Director Liu's family was headed by his wife, and he had a lot of children of his own. If he took Yu Daya and her two siblings home, wouldn't his wife tickle him to death?
Director Liu shut up in anger and dared not say anything more.
He Shuli snorted.
Yu Daya and her two siblings often do not live in the house. They sleep in the corners outside, leaning against the wall like little beggars.
This had a particularly bad impact on Zaoxiang Commune. When He Shuli saw how Director Liu couldn't wait to give Yu Daya and her two siblings to his own family, she knew that the commune secretary had criticized him a lot during this period.
It's a pity that this person is only good at talking and has no ability to handle things. The director of this street office got promoted through nepotism.
Usually they act very arrogant and powerful, but in reality, it's nothing.
He Shuli's gaze swept across several other staff members of the street office and fell on Yu Daya's two siblings who were huddled together and crying. Seeing them, she felt nauseous.
"I know you three siblings are pitiful. But you have to understand that your pitifulness has nothing to do with our Du family, and it is not caused by our Du family."
"Your mother remarried and didn't support you, and your uncle occupied your house and kicked you and your sister out. You can report to the police, the Women's Federation, and the commune secretary. That's where they can help you solve your problem."
"If it really doesn't work, go find your grandparents, your grandparents, and all the relatives who are related to your family. Even if you talk about the heavens and the earth, and talk about all the ethics and reason, you still don't have the rights to find my family."
"Don't say I don't want to raise other people's children. Even if I am willing, I don't want to raise you three. What can I get from raising you three? Don't say you will repay me when you grow up. Your biological mother is still here, and your biological grandparents are still here. They can't repay us."
"When we have worked so hard to raise the three of you, your biological mother will found out, your relatives will come to visit you, and when you grow up, you will still want to be with your blood relatives and kick us away. Then what are we?" Didn't this kind of thing happen in the previous life?
The man Zhang Shuixiu remarried had a bad character. She gave birth to a son and a daughter after she got married. Later, her later child fell ill, so she went to find Yu Daya. Yu Daya was in high school at that time. After a few years of good life, she may have forgotten how Zhang Shuixiu treated her when she was a child.
Or maybe because her life was getting better, and seeing Zhang Shuixiu, who abused her in the past, begging her, she was satisfied, so she gave away all her pocket money, not even leaving money for sanitary napkins.
At that time, He Shuli felt very uncomfortable, and it was Du Yuanzhou who comforted her. Du Yuanzhou said that the child did this because she had a conscience, and they should be happy.
What a joke! Yu Daya is so arrogant when she succeeds. She is even more disgusting than Zhang Shuixiu. She is a complete egoist.
He Shuli sometimes wondered if she had a problem with her brain. How come neither she nor Du Yuanzhou had figured out such an obvious truth in their previous lives?
Yu Daya and the others are pitiful, but they are not without close relatives. Did she and Du Yuanzhou get kicked in the head by a donkey? Otherwise, how could they think of adopting these three children?
Yu Daya was extremely angry.
She didn't know why, but from the first moment she saw Du Yuanzhou, she felt particularly close to him. When she saw Du Yuanzhou getting along with He Shuli, she developed a hostility towards He Shuli that came from nowhere.
Yu Daya had even thought about it. Once Dahe was adopted by the Du family, she would go to the Du family three times a day under the pretext of visiting her brother. She would definitely help He Shuli with work diligently, and then slowly move into the Du family.
She will definitely be able to surpass He Shuli and let Du Yuanzhou see how diligent she is.
Yu Daya realized that she looked at Du Yuanzhou and immediately lowered her head.
When He Shuli saw this scene, she found it extremely funny.
It was the same in the previous life. Yu Daya would often glance at Du Yuanzhou and then quickly lower her head, as if Du Yuanzhou was so scary.
Du Yuanzhou even asked He Shuli this question.
Now that she think about it, is Yu Daya afraid of Du Yuanzhou and therefore doesn't dare to look at him, or does she like Du Yuanzhou so much that she doesn't dare to look at him?
It's the latter, right?
Under the influence of Zhang Shuixiu and Yu Guozhu, Yu Daya, who was only ten years old, already understood the love between men and women.
How terrible! She is only ten years old. Is she fully developed?
He Shuli glanced at Du Yuanzhou indifferently, and Du Yuanzhou's scalp numbed.
He Shuli knew about Du Yuanzhou's secret support for Daya's siblings and allowed it. She knew that Yu Daya and her siblings could not be prevented, and only by making Du Yuanzhou see that he was good to them, would Yu Daya kneel down and beg them to support Yu Dahe like she did in her previous life.
She just needed to seize this opportunity to make a big deal out of it, and then reject Yu Daya with righteous words. Only in this way would Du Yuanzhou take her thoughts into consideration and stop showing his love to Daya and the other two.
She made a big fuss, and it also forced out the Yu family members who had not come out.
Officer Zhang from the subdistrict office felt secretly bitter. He was about to speak at the signal of Director Liu when the Yu family arrived. The people who came were Old Man Yu and his wife, Old Lady Wang.
As soon as Old Lady Wang entered the yard, she grabbed Yu Daya and slapped her in the face: "You are just like your mother, a jinx. Who do you think you are? Can you just give away the children of our Yu family?"
Old Lady Wang didn't like her daughter-in-law Zhang Shuixiu. Not long after Zhang Shuixiu came into the family, she separated her family and set up their own households.
As a result, the three children he gave birth to were not liked by Old Lady Wang.
Now that he's dead, Zhang Shuixiu couldn't bear it and remarried, so what's wrong with giving the house to her youngest son? No matter what, Yu Daya's three siblings are all her second son's flesh and blood, especially her two sons!
When she heard someone say that Yu Daya wanted the Du family to adopt Yu Dahe, Old Lady Wang became furious.
Jiang Youtao looked at her coldly. Yu Daya, who had always acted pitiful, finally showed a look of fear at this moment.
Old Lady Wang slapped her to the ground and she pulled Yu Dahe to her side and said, "Don't take this girl's words seriously. Her words don't count. His father is dead, but her grandfather and I are still alive. No one can adopt him without my consent!"
He Shuli was waiting for Old Lady Wang.
Old Lady Wang has the final say in the Yu family. As long as she opens her mouth, Yu Daya's younger brother cannot be sent away.
She glanced at Yu Daya, who didn't even dare to cry.
He Shuli felt that she was a fool in her previous life. In the previous life, they adopted Yu Dahe out of kindness, but Old Lady Wang regarded them as thorns in her side. Later, when Yu Daya and Yu Dachuan came to her house, Old Lady Wang directly regarded her family as enemies.
But later, when Yu Daya slandered Old Du, Old Lady Wang stood up and spoke for Du Yuanzhou, and then she was also labeled as a vicious grandmother who neglected her granddaughter.
After living her life again, He Shuli was very grateful to those who had spoken up for Du Yuanzhou. She said to Old Lady Wang, "Auntie, please take them back quickly. They have been crying here all morning."
After a pause, He Shuli continued, "Every morning when we wake up, we see the three siblings sleeping outside my house. You should also cover them up. Don't let them get sick from the cold weather in this late spring."
Aunt Yu heard this when she came in: "This has nothing to do with me. I have never chased the three of them out to sleep. The three siblings live in the west wing by themselves. A few days ago, the kang over there wouldn't heat up, so I asked her uncle to fix it again."
Aunt Yu felt that she was really wronged.
It's true that she didn't like Yu Daya and the other two, but she didn't have the heart to kick them out in the middle of the night. She wasn't that wicked!
"I don't know how many times I have scolded the three of them for always sleeping outside at night. My neighbors can testify to this." Aunt Yu brought her neighbors here specifically.
"Indeed, indeed." The neighbors of the Yu family were not willing to get involved in the Yu family's affairs. Today, Aunt Yu went to her house to beg for mercy and brought her a few eggs. In addition, Aunt Yu asked her to come out and clarify that everything was true, so she was willing to come out and tell the truth.
Everyone in the commune knew what kind of people Yu Xiaoshen's neighbors were like, and after hearing what she said, everyone was furious.
Old Lady Zhang and the others came to Jiang Youtao's side without knowing when. Jiang Youtao shared some melon seeds with them and said, "I knew it, Yu Guodong's wife is a bit stingy and a bit mean, but she's not to the point of kicking people out."
We all live in the same commune, so everyone knows each other.
Zhang Yubing's wife said bluntly while eating melon seeds: "Those two little ones all listen to Yu Daya. They must have been instigated by Yu Daya to do this. I think she is just jealous of the Du family's better life."
The Du family has no children. As an electrician, Du Yuanzhou has a very high salary, at least over 4 yuan. Although He Shuli does not have a job, she has no children to burden her, so her life is so comfortable.
Yu Daya had learned to be ambitious but incompetent under the guidance of her parents, so it was no surprise that she wanted to find a good tree to live under.
Old Madam Zhang patted Jiang Youtao's hand and said, "I told you a long time ago not to get involved with those three siblings. I hope they didn't harm you. You can't get involved with them!"
"Yu Daya is a really good child. Every family needs a bite to eat, but this child is very cunning. If you give her something to eat, she won't hide it away but will go home to share it with her two brothers."
"I must say, if she wants to be separated to her brother then just do it quietly. Yet, she wants to show off that she loves her siblings in front of everyone. Zhang Shuixiu and Yu Guozhu are not good people. Since this happened now, wouldn't they want others to raise their children before?"
"So, this child is taught by words and deeds. What kind of parents will give birth to what kind of children. Otherwise, how can good bamboo shoots come out of bad bamboos?"
"It's so rare for a bad bamboo to produce good shoots. If it weren't rare, who would care about it?" Mrs. Zhang said, and then she said, "Let's go, let's go. With Mrs. Wang here, there's no good show to watch."
After Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, they saw that Old Lady Wang pulled Yu Dachuan and Yu Dahe away. As soon as she left, the Yu family also left.
The people from the street office saw that the main characters had left and there was no point for them to stay, so they left too.
The yard was full of people just now, but most of them dispersed in an instant.
The people who were watching the fun also left.
Director Liu from the sub-district office had just arrived at the township government when he was called away by Secretary Shen.
As Director Liu entered the secretary's office, his heart began to beat fast.
Today is the weekend and people don't have to go to work. However, after Secretary Shen heard at home that people from the street office had dealt with the matter of Yu Daya and her two siblings, he paid special attention to this matter.
After hearing that Director Liu persuaded the couple to raise Yu Dahe, he just felt that there was no such absurd thing in the world!
"Liu Zhihai, Liu Zhihai, what's going on in your head? How come you are so smart?"
"Come on, tell me, what are you thinking? The Du family has only moved to the commune for a month, and they haven't figured out the situation there yet. And you dare to persuade them to adopt a child given the Yu family's situation."
"Aren't you just bullying the outsiders who don't know anything? Aren't you afraid that Zhang Shuixiu will come back one day to take the child?"
"Aren't you afraid that the Yu family will hate you to death? Are Yu Daya and her brother orphans? Huh?"
"All their close relatives are still alive. What are you thinking? You let an outsider adopt them!"
"Aren't you afraid of being struck by thunder?"
"I asked you to take care of the Yu family's affairs and stop the three of them from sleeping near the wall all the time. Is this how you handle it? Are you crazy? Huh?"
"Liu Zhihai, Liu Zhihai, you are the director of the subdistrict office! If you can't even do such a small thing, what else can you do? If you can't do this, you should step down as soon as possible. You are really a capable person!"
Director Liu lowered his head and let Secretary Shen scold him. After hearing the last sentence, Liu Zhihai raised his head and said, "Secretary, don't worry. I promise to handle this matter well. If I can't handle it well, I will resign directly!"
Secretary Shen took a sip of water and put the cup heavily on the table: "On Tuesday, a leader from above will come down to inspect. If the inspection results are good, we will set up a branch factory in Zaoxiang Commune. This will determine the fate of tens of thousands of people in Zaoxiang Commune."
"If Yu Daya's incident gives the county leaders a bad impression of Zaoxiang Commune, I will hold you responsible."
Liu Zhihai stood up straight suddenly.
Secretary Shen's meaning was very clear. If he failed to handle this matter well, and the superiors came to inspect and did not approve, then he would be the one to bear the blame.
Zaoxiang Commune is so poor. If the county could set up a factory in Zaoxiang Commune, how many additional workers would be provided to Zaoxiang Commune?
There were tens of thousands of people in Zaoxiang Commune. They could drown Liu Zhihai with just a spit!
"Don't worry, Secretary. I will definitely handle this matter well."
"I'll give you one last chance!"
When Liu Zhihai came out of the commune, he did not bring his staff with him and went to Yu's house alone.
Old man Yu was sitting on the doorstep at the edge of the yard smoking, Old lady Wang was sitting nearby scolding Yu Daya, Yu Dachuan and Yu Dahe were sitting and standing facing the wall, not saying a word.
Yu Daya's eyes were red and there were several criss-crossed slap marks on her face.
Liu Zhihai was still thinking about persuading the Du family to adopt Yu Dahe in the morning, and no one paid any attention to him when he entered the house.
Liu Zhihai didn't care about this, he had already developed a thick skin.
He walked up to the two of them with a shameless face and said, "Uncle Yu, Aunt Wang, our commune has issued an ultimatum regarding the matter of your eldest daughter. If you can't handle it well, your family will not be included in the evaluation of the five good families this year.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Yu family changed their expressions.
The Yu family split up more than ten years ago. Uncle Yu worked as a lumberjack in a logging camp not far from the commune. The title of "Five-Good Family" allowed him to receive an extra reward at the logging camp.
Therefore, the Yu family attaches great importance to this title.
Old Man Yu promised solemnly: "Don't worry, Director Liu, I will definitely discipline Daya. She was taught badly by her mother. From now on, Daya and her two siblings will live with us. Things like sleeping outside at night will not happen again."
Old man Yu can do what he says. Yu Daya felt that everything in front of her eyes was getting darker and darker. She knew that if anything involved her uncle's future, her grandparents would definitely discipline her strictly.
The policy of pretending to be pitiful that her mother taught her would probably no longer be implemented. Not only that, the elder and younger brothers would probably not be too close to her in the future.
The two best guns in her hands would never be under her control again.
