Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

Chapter 312 I want to refute but I can't find the right words

He Yuzhu, who was listening nearby, smiled secretly. He knew that this activity was actually to encourage people to pay attention to environmental hygiene and disease prevention, not to really catch rats. But the neighbors didn't seem to think so.

"Xiao Yu Shui, do you have to participate in this event too?" He turned around and asked Xiao Yu Shui.

This rewritten paragraph maintains the relationship and emotional development between the original characters, while changing the expression through different sentence patterns and descriptions.

"Yes, the teacher said that every student must catch at least five mouse tails to complete the task." Xiao Yushui answered seriously.

"Oh? So many?" He Yuzhu was a little surprised. He knew that it was not easy for the children to catch five mouse tails.

"That's right. Moreover, this activity will also have an evaluation. Students who catch more will have the opportunity to be praised by the teacher!" Xiao Yushui said expectantly.

Seeing Xiao Yushui's hopeful eyes, He Yuzhu's heart softened. He understood how important it was for a child to be praised by the teacher. So he decided to help the child.

"Okay, I'll help you catch mice!" He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Really? That's great! Thank you, Brother Yuzhu!" Little Rain jumped for joy.

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the yard. It turned out that the street cadres came to the yard to publicize the rat elimination activity. They encouraged residents to actively participate and contribute to the environmental sanitation of the yard, and announced that if any yard performed outstandingly, it would have the opportunity to be rated as a "civilized yard" and receive rewards.

Hearing this, the residents immediately became excited and discussed how to catch more rats. However, when someone asked about the specific content of the reward, the cadres' answers were vague and did not give a clear answer.

"Those rewards are actually nothing special." Xu Baokun said lightly, "Aren't they just some daily necessities? Is it worth mobilizing so much effort?"

His comments caused a burst of laughter. Everyone felt that he had a point and that these things were really nothing to them. So everyone's interest gradually faded and they prepared to disperse.

At this time, He Yuzhu stood up, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Everyone, don't leave in a hurry! I think this activity is very meaningful. Although the reward is not much, we are working hard for the sanitary environment of the entire courtyard! And if we are rated as a 'civilized courtyard', it will also be an honor."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were focused on him and they listened quietly.

"Therefore, I hope everyone can actively participate in this event. Whether for rewards or honors, we should do our best," He Yuzhu continued.

His words resonated with the public, and although most people did not care much about the reward itself, they also realized that this activity was related to the quality of the living environment. Therefore, everyone expressed their willingness to participate and contribute to the environmental sanitation of the yard.

Looking at the enthusiastic crowd, He Yuzhu felt very comforted. He believed that as long as everyone worked together, the event would be successfully completed.

"Our courtyard had a very bad reputation last year and was a complete mess. It took us a whole year to recover. This time it's time for our courtyard to establish a good image again." He Yuzhu said seriously.

"Bah, don't let me meet those gossips and rumor mongers, otherwise I will teach them a lesson every time I meet them." The second uncle Liu Haizhong muttered angrily.

"That's right, they have nothing to do after eating, so they like to gossip and slander others." The third uncle Yan Bugui sighed in agreement.

"Shut up, can't a meal shut you up?" Uncle Yi Zhonghai glanced at the people in the yard.

"Uncle, you can't blame us. This is all about our yard. There's such a big commotion, we should at least have a chat, right?" An old lady looked at Yi Zhonghai with dissatisfaction.

"What are we talking about? Let's just let the past be the past and don't mention it again. Let's eat." Yi Zhonghai seemed a little impatient and waved his hand.

"Uncle, this matter cannot be forgotten. We became famous last year, and we must fight for some honor this year to reverse the impact of last year." He Yuzhu looked at Yi Zhonghai and said seriously.

"Want to clear your reputation? Can you do it just by talking?" Yi Zhonghai rolled his eyes at He Yuzhu with disdain.

"Uncle, don't underestimate me. Although I don't have any great abilities, I know that honor is won through hard work, not out of thin air." He Yuzhu shrugged.

"Then tell me, how do you earn this honor?" Yi Zhonghai stared at He Yuzhu and asked.

"It's very simple. There are so many activities in the factory. As long as we actively participate and try our best to get a good ranking, we can get the honor, right?" He Yuzhu answered lightly.

"Haha, it's easy for you to say that. You want to be active? But do you know that these activities are all competitions among masters? The people who come out of each workshop are elites, and we just play supporting roles when we participate." An old lady snorted coldly.

"So what if I'm a supporting role? Supporting roles can also strive for honors. The key is that as long as we try our best, even if we don't win a medal, it's better than sitting idle at home." He Yuzhu said seriously.

"Haha, not bad, He Yuzhu. I finally see through you. You are so obsessed with getting married that you actually use this matter as an excuse?" Another aunt teased He Yuzhu with a smile.

"What about getting a wife? You can also earn honor by getting a wife. I want to tell you, no matter what I do, I am determined to earn honor!" He Yuzhu retorted with a blushing face.

"Yes, you have ambition! I support you." Liu Haizhong stood up as if he understood and looked at He Yuzhu with approval.

"I agree too. The young man is full of drive. Young people should be full of energy and not be discouraged by the setbacks last year." Yan Bugui nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"Hmph, what's the use of support? You want to win honor with your little ability? I'm afraid you will be embarrassed by then." Yi Zhonghai said coldly and curled his lips with disdain.

"Uncle, why do you say that? There are many young and promising people in our hospital. Why can't they win honors?" Liu Haizhong asked dissatisfiedly.

"Win the honor, good! I'm waiting to see what you can do." Yi Zhonghai sneered and said no more.

"Okay, just wait and see, I will definitely lead everyone to win honor!" He Yuzhu also sneered, not caring about Yi Zhonghai's attitude at all.

Just as everyone was discussing in the yard, applause suddenly came from the moon-shaped gate leading to the middle yard. "Good, good, very well said."

Accompanied by applause, a middle-aged man in a gray Zhongshan suit walked in from the moon-shaped gate. This man was Secretary Wang.

"Secretary Wang, why are you here?" Yi Zhonghai saw Secretary Wang quickly stand up and asked respectfully.

"How could I not come? Of course I'm here to listen to you talk about catching mice. Why? Are you not welcome?" Secretary Wang glanced at everyone with a smile.

"Of course you are welcome. You are most welcome. Please take a seat, Secretary Wang." Yi Zhonghai quickly gave up his seat and asked Secretary Wang to sit down.

"No need for that. I'll just stand here and listen to what you have to say." Secretary Wang waved his hand and turned to look at He Yuzhu.

"He Yuzhu, what you said just now makes a lot of sense. Young people should have this kind of energy and should not be dejected when they encounter some setbacks." Secretary Wang nodded in approval.

"Thank you for the compliment, Secretary Wang. I was just expressing my thoughts." He Yuzhu scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

"Very good, if you have an idea you should put it into action. I support you in actively participating in the factory's activities and winning honor for our yard." Secretary Wang said with a smile.

"Thank you for the support, Secretary Wang. We will redouble our efforts." He Yuzhu, Liu Haizhong and others expressed their opinions.

"Well, I believe you can do it." Secretary Wang nodded, then turned his gaze to Yi Zhonghai.

"Yi Zhonghai, you are the big brother now, you should take the lead more."

"Secretary Wang, it's all thanks to you this time. Without your guidance, the yard would have been in chaos." He Yuzhu stood respectfully in front of Secretary Wang and said a series of polite words sincerely.

Secretary Wang nodded with satisfaction, and finally stopped his gaze on He Yuzhu: "Well, Xiao He, you did a great job this time. I will say a few good words to the leader."

He Yuzhu was delighted, but he remained humble on the outside. "Secretary Wang, thank you for the compliment. This is what I should do."

Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly on the side, but no one paid any attention to him. He couldn't help feeling annoyed but helpless.

After returning home, Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly turned red, and his eyes were burning with anger. He slammed the table and roared: "How can I swallow this tone! He Yuzhu actually stole my limelight in front of Director Wang!"

His breathing became more and more rapid, and the anger in his heart was like a volcano about to erupt. He looked around, but could not find anyone to talk to.

At this moment, He Yuzhu's voice came from outside the door: "Yi Zhonghai, I know you are doing some shameful tricks in the courtyard, scheming against orphans and widows. Do you think you are doing it perfectly? I have seen through it a long time ago!"

……

Hearing these words, Yi Zhonghai suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart. He pushed open the door and saw He Yuzhu standing outside the door, staring at him provocatively.

"He Yuzhu, you...what nonsense are you talking about!" Yi Zhonghai's lips trembled. He wanted to refute but couldn't find the right words.

……

At this time, the Jia family also rushed over after hearing the news. Yi Zhonghai originally expected them to stand up for him and speak for him. However, the Jia family just stood aside and said nothing.

This made his anger even more intense. He slammed the table again and shouted, "Are you Jia family members so scared? He Yuzhu is saying bad things about me, and you guys are not going to say a word?"

Before he finished speaking, an old lady came over quickly and supported the frightened, pale old lady. The old lady looked directly at Yi Zhonghai with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes: "Yi Zhonghai, what's the point of banging the table like this? Do you think you can solve the problem by getting angry at Li Yun?"
