After the first uncle knew what everyone meant, he stopped talking, obviously asking the second uncle to explain.
This whole-campus conference was naturally the second uncle’s intention. He just now brought two bottles of wine to the first uncle’s house to pay New Year’s greetings. He sat down and asked for a meeting without saying anything. The first uncle’s persuasion was fruitless, so he could only find the third uncle first.
The third uncle felt that it was inappropriate when he heard this. It was mainly due to the weather. The snow outside had not stopped yet, so it was unrealistic to hold a meeting.
The two of them took turns to fight, but the second uncle didn’t listen and had no choice but to put this matter on the table. Anyway, almost everyone was there, and they discussed whether to start.
At this moment, the second uncle’s face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out.
The scene he originally envisioned was: when he made this suggestion, everyone responded and passed the proposal smoothly, and then the matter was settled.
However, reality was very different from his expectations, and there were very few people supporting him, which made him feel very disappointed and angry.
You know, he is the richest person in Siheyuan (at least he thinks so himself). Now he doesn’t even get the support of a small proposal from most people. This is really embarrassing.
If it were at his own home at this time, he would have thrown his cup in anger, but this place was not his house, but He Yuzhu’s house, so he had to suppress his anger.
In addition, what annoyed him was He Yuzhu’s behavior.
Perhaps because he was worried that too many people in his family would accidentally damage the tea cup, He Yuzhu actually put the exquisite tea sets he had used to make tea into the cabinet, and replaced them with ordinary tea sets purchased from department stores.
The patterns drawn on these tea sets made the second uncle even more dissatisfied because they looked tasteless. All of this made the anger in the second uncle’s heart burn even more vigorously.
“Cough cough…”
The second uncle coughed twice, attracted everyone’s attention and said:
“That’s right. This hospital-wide conference is my opinion, and it naturally has my purpose. But I can’t say what the specific reason is now. It’s not that it is confidential, but it’s not clear for a while, and everyone hasn’t arrived. I’m now saying it’s unfair to the rest.
But I use my personality to guarantee that what the hospital-wide conference is absolutely important. Otherwise, I will automatically step down from the position of [Second Master]!”
After saying that, the second uncle’s face looked a little ugly.
However, everyone did not nod immediately as they imagined and agreed. On the contrary, they were still thinking about it, as if weighing the pros and cons, and also as if they were thinking about this matter, wanting to know what exactly made the second uncle convene this whole-campus conference so resolutely.
But for everyone, I’m talking about resigningI don’t care. After all, for these people, [Second Uncle] is just a respectful title and has no actual power or interests.
If what the second uncle said is really that important, why not tell everyone earlier? Or we’ll talk about it when everyone is here?
However, although I was still a little doubtful, considering the second uncle’s face, everyone was willing to believe him once. So, they nodded one after another and agreed to participate in the hospital-wide conference.
