Chapter 2282
My Life Is Important
After He Yuzhu left, Yi Zhonghai could no longer keep up the act and hurriedly explained to Bang Geng.
“I really didn’t know he was so unreasonable. If I had known, I wouldn’t have yelled, and you ended up getting beaten up.”
Banggeng is a very sensible guy. Whoever brings him benefits is his father.
Sha Zhu found him a job in a ministry, and he gave his biological mother to Sha Zhu.
Sha Zhu helped him marry Tang Yanling, and Sha Shu became Sha Ba.
Similarly, since he owes his current good life to Yi Zhonghai, he immediately started calling him "Dad."
As long as Yi Zhonghai can give him money and make him rich, he wouldn't care even if Yi Zhonghai himself did it, let alone take a beating for him.
At most, they would just keep a mental note about Yi Zhonghai.
When Yi Zhonghai is no longer useful, settle accounts with him.
Upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's explanation, Banggeng quickly said, "Dad, I don't blame you. It's all Shazhu's fault."
Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied to see that his beloved son did not blame him.
"You're much more sensible than Sha Zhu. Let's eat."
Seeing that He Yuzhu was really willing to take action, Yi Zhonghai and the others didn't dare to cause trouble.
They weren't afraid of being beaten; they were all over eighty years old. If He Yuzhu dared to lay down on the ground, they would.
What they feared was that He Yuzhu would harm the children. They were afraid that if the children were beaten, they would harbor resentment towards them.
The group quickly finished their meal and then obediently returned to the courtyard house.
Once they returned to the courtyard house, Yi Zhonghai and the others breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing the ease of surviving a disaster.
"That damned idiot Zhu, I will never forgive him. Yan Jiecheng, we must get on with the restaurant business."
Back in the courtyard, as soon as he sat down, Yi Zhonghai's expression changed, and he vowed to fight He Yuzhu to the end.
Yan Jiecheng knew that Yi Zhonghai was in a bad mood, so he immediately agreed.
"Don't worry, sir, I guarantee there won't be any problems here."
Yi Zhonghai hummed in agreement, then gave the instructions: "Bang Geng, keep an eye on things."
Bang Geng immediately agreed: "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely ruin Sha Zhu's restaurant and avenge you."
Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied with Bang Geng's statement and said hypocritically, "It's not to avenge me, it's to avenge the old lady."
"We took Jin Qihao's money, so we have to do things for him."
"Dad, you're right, I'll listen to you." Banggeng immediately changed his tune.
These were all things Qin Huairu secretly taught her.
Yi Zhonghai's favorite children are those who are obedient. Jia Dongxu won Yi Zhonghai's favor precisely because of his obedience.
Qin Huairu hopes that Bang Geng will learn Jia Dongxu's skills well.
Yi Zhonghai was indeed very pleased after hearing this.
"Old Yan, you need to hurry up on your end too. It would be best to poach all the chefs from Shazhu Restaurant."
Yan Bugui was a sensible person and readily agreed: "Don't worry, I'll make the most of my time."
However, our restaurant hasn't even started renovations yet, so even if we poach people, we won't be able to use them.
That would be a waste of money.
I think it's better to let them work at Sha Zhu's shop for now.
"Once our restaurant is almost finished with renovations, we'll have them resign immediately."
Yi Zhonghai thought about it and realized he was right. He couldn't stand being paid such high salaries to poach people who didn't work.
Those were all He Yuzhu's apprentices. He couldn't sleep at night, having to support He Yuzhu's apprentices for nothing.
Tang Yanling knew that Yi Zhonghai looked down on her, and even if she changed her tune, Yi Zhonghai's attitude towards her was still not good.
Tang Yanling had been thinking about how to please Yi Zhonghai, and finally, she came up with a plan.
"Dad, I'm planning to recruit someone whose fame has spread throughout half the city. What do you think?"
Yi Zhonghai was taken aback: "Why do you want to poach them?"
Tang Yanling explained, "Let them come work at our Happy Family."
Since we need to find someone anyway, we might as well just contact the people from Xiangpiao Bancheng.
Moreover, those people's wages aren't high.
Yi Zhonghai thought about it and agreed. Even if this didn't cause any real harm to He Yuzhu, it would still annoy him.
“Okay, let’s do it this way. You, Xiao Dang, and Xiao Huaihua, go together to dig up the people whose fragrance has spread throughout half the city.”
Tang Yanling immediately pledged to complete the task. Seeing everyone's united efforts, Yi Zhonghai finally felt completely relieved.
The younger men, seeing that Yi Zhonghai was happy, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Serving Yi Zhonghai is more tiring than serving a leader.
The young people all made excuses and left the house.
Only the three old men and Qin Huairu remained in the entire house.
Yan Bugui thought of He Yuzhu's last words, and also of the health of himself and the others.
"Old Yi, I think we should go to the hospital and have a proper medical check-up."
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment and immediately said, "We really should get a proper medical check-up."
Sha Zhu's words, though unpleasant, served as a reminder.
"We're not young anymore. Without good health, how can we fight against Sha Zhu?"
All of them were afraid of death, and even Qin Huairu did not object to the suggestion.
"How about we go to the Sixth Hospital for a check-up in a couple of days?"
"What are you checking?" Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu returned.
The two of them went out to find someone from the telecommunications bureau to apply for a telephone installation; they didn't go to the Chaoyang Hotel with them.
Upon seeing the two, Yi Zhonghai said, "We were planning to go for a medical check-up. Why are you only just getting back?"
Liu Guangtian quickly said, "We've already made arrangements with someone, and they'll come to install the phone number tomorrow."
"Sir, which room would be best to install the telephone?"
"Let's put it in my room." Yi Zhonghai made the decision without consulting anyone else.
With a telephone inside, calling for help is easy. If you feel unwell, you can call 120 directly.
Since there's nothing to argue about, no one objects.
Liu Guangtian then brought up the matter of getting a physical examination.
He said ingratiatingly, "I was just about to suggest to you that we go to the hospital for a check-up."
Grandpa, if you ask me, you shouldn't go to the Sixth Hospital anymore.
"We have money now, so we'll go to the best hospital."
Liu Guangfu naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to show his face in front of Yi Zhonghai.
He quickly added, "Uncle, my brother is right. Big hospitals have comprehensive equipment, advanced medical skills, and better diagnostic results."
I think we should just go to Peking Union Medical College Hospital.
I know a director there; he can guarantee you the best arrangements.
Yan Bugui's opportunistic nature surfaced: "How do you two know the director inside?"
Liu Guangtian quickly gave Liu Guangfu a look, signaling him not to say anything out of line.
They met through Xu Damao.
Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao didn't get along, and Liu Guangtian was afraid that if Yi Zhonghai found out, he wouldn't want to go.
"We didn't just find someone in advance to arrange a medical check-up for you."
Liu Guangfu added, "Yes. We found this person through connections."
It took a lot of effort to find this director.
Liu Haizhong said, "You two little rascals, you've finally done something good."
Lao Yi, I think we should go to Peking Union Medical College Hospital.
We're not short of money right now, so if we're going to go, we should go to the best.
When it comes to his own life, Yi Zhonghai certainly wouldn't hesitate to risk it.
He was a little suspicious of the intentions of the Liu brothers.
But after thinking about it, I couldn't find any problems.
Since no problems have been found, Yi Zhonghai will not risk his life.
"Okay, let's go to Peking Union Medical College Hospital. You guys make the arrangements in advance, and we'll all go together."
Liu Guangtian patted his chest and said, "Don't worry. We brothers will make sure everything is arranged perfectly."
"Sir, could you perhaps allocate some funds for us? We'd like to..."
This time, Yi Zhonghai wasn't stingy; he approved the funds for the two men and sent them to use their connections. (End of Chapter)
