No matter how thick-skinned Jia Zhang was, she still felt that she couldn't get off the stage after being laughed at by so many people. She stared at Xu's father and said, "Xu family, what are you doing?"
"Compensate."
"No."
"No? Haha."
Xu's father turned to look at Yi Zhonghai and the others, "Old Yi, what do you think we should do?"
The ball was kicked back to Yi Zhonghai, but Xu's father went back and sat down, watching quietly.
Yi Zhonghai understood that this matter depended on the three uncles.
Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui behind him also noticed that if this couldn't be adjusted, then there was no need for the uncle in the courtyard to do it.
Neither Liu Haizhong nor Yan Fugui could let this happen.
Liu Haizhong was the first to speak, "Jia Zhang, please tell me first whether you took Xu Damao's money or not."
"I,."
Jia Zhang hesitated, and everyone knew at a glance that they must have taken it.
Ignoring everyone's disdain, Yan Fugui asked directly, "How much money can your family afford?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang continued to remain silent. To be honest, she didn't want to give any points.
"Speak, is it possible that you just want to squat?"
"I, my family has no money."
"Stop crying about poverty. If you have more, you don't have it. If you have less, you still don't have it."
Liu Haizhong didn't give the Jia family face, "Last time, the yard donated more than 100 to your family, and it was all used up so quickly?"
Qin Huairu came out quickly and said, "Second uncle, that is money for Dongxu's medical treatment. If there is no money, what will happen to Dongxu if something happens to him?"
Liu Haizhong curled his lips and looked at Yan Fugui.
Yan Fugui said nothing and finally looked at Yi Zhonghai.
"Lao Xu, you also know the situation of the Jia family."
"Life has been rough these past few years, and now it's like this. You name it and let the Jia family do it."
Xu's father said nothing and just let Xu Damao make his own decision.
Xu Damao raised his head and made quick mental calculations. If he talked too much, wouldn't the Jia family have no money?
But it cannot be said that it is less, "Three uncles, you are all highly respected in the courtyard. Now I will give face to the three uncles."
"You have to live in my house with firewood, rice, oil and salt. Is that something ordinary people can live in? I must pay thirty yuan for these things."
"If you don't give it, then don't talk about anything. Go straight to the police station."
Yi Zhonghai said nothing and looked at Qin Huairu.
"Okay, we did something wrong and deserve to be punished."
Qin Huairu readily agreed.
"As for the lost money, you can give me one hundred. If there is more, consider it as a donation to your family. After all, you and Dongxu are brothers and you have to take care of them."
When Jia Zhang heard the one hundred yuan bill, she couldn't help it. Qin Huairu couldn't hold it back at all and rushed to Xu Damao.
"Xu Damao, you black-hearted beast, one hundred yuan? There are only 36 yuan in your cabinet, where did you get one hundred yuan?"
The aggressive Jia Zhang didn't even see the mocking eyes of the people around her. After saying this, the specific number of thefts was also revealed.
When the police come, they will catch you immediately.
However, compared to one hundred yuan, Jia Zhang couldn't care about anything else.
Xu Damao snorted coldly.
"36 yuan? Are you lying? How can my family only have such a small amount of money? You think it's your family."
Xu Damao understood in his heart, but how could he listen to Jia Zhang at this time?
I have just reminded you that it cannot be said to be blackmail, and it would have to cost 128 yuan, otherwise it would not be justified.
"You're talking nonsense, you, you bastard, you can't do human affairs outside, but you can't do human affairs at home. How can you be so stupid? You deserve to have no children. It's all retribution, retribution."
Mrs. Jia Zhang cursed, Xu Damao breathed in angrily, and Xu's mother behind him jumped up immediately after hearing this.
"Zhang Erniu, how is your family? Hasn't your family suffered any retribution? Your son is a cripple lying in bed. He may die one day, leaving a whole family of widows."
"I may not know whose surname the child will be named by then."
These words directly hit Jia Zhang's pain point, "Ah, you, you shameless person. I, I will fight with you!"
Jia Zhang rushed to Xu's mother. Facing the stout Jia Zhang's Xu's mother, she was no match. Fortunately, Xu Damao helped, and the three of them struggled together.
In the chaos, Xu Damao's cheek was scratched twice by Jia Zhang, and he grimaced in pain. Xu's mother was hit by Jia Zhang's head, and her chest still hurt.
Jia Zhang didn't get it right either. She originally had a piece of scalp missing, but Xu's mother removed another handful. Blood seeped out from the wound, and her eyes were punched twice by Xu Damao, causing her eye sockets to turn blue.
None of the three had a good position, but they were equally matched.
The three uncles and Xu's father hurriedly went up to start a fight, and finally separated the people, and the scene calmed down.
People in the surrounding courtyard were watching the excitement, but no one even spoke to stop it.
When Xu's father saw this, he just felt like he was being laughed at as a monkey trick. He gave Xu Damao a stern look and told him not to speak.
As soon as Jia Zhang was pulled away, she sat down on the ground and beat the ground.
"It's unreasonable. They bully me even though I'm an orphan and a widower. Oh my God, please open your eyes and see. These beasts are bullying people. I can't live anymore, I can't live anymore..."
"My son, my life is miserable. I had to drag you up, but why did you just lie down?"
"You lie down, our Jia family is being bullied, ugh..."
"Old Jia, come up and take a look. People in this courtyard are bullying me. Old Jia, you must vent your anger for us..."
Mrs. Jia Zhang slapped the ground regardless, not even listening to Yi Zhonghai's words, and kept calling Lao Jia, and the whole courtyard was full of crying and howling.
Yang Xiaotao curled his lips at Ran Qiuye, "Look, if you say you can't beat someone, then you start acting wild. This is the Jia family's effective trick."
"We have seen so much that we don't even feel it anymore."
Xiao Liu's daughter-in-law next to her was cracking melon seeds and speaking out what was on everyone's mind. Suddenly, everyone was laughing.
Qin Huairu on the side heard her mother-in-law crying, but paid attention to the faces of the people around her.
Seeing that everyone was not as sympathetic as expected, some even started laughing and could hardly hold it back.
How did the people in this courtyard become like this?
Is there any sympathy left?
Mrs. Jia Zhang was crying and howling inside, while people watching the excitement outside were laughing.
Only a few people in the middle of the courtyard were the ones who really felt uncomfortable.
Yi Zhonghai listened to the laughter and saw Jia Zhang shamelessly calling Lao Jia, and felt powerless all over his body.
Liu Haizhong also lost his face. He should not come to the meeting today.
After this, who will listen to him in the future?
As for Yan Fugui, he has stopped talking for a long time.
The more you say, the more likely you are to make mistakes. Silence is golden.
At this time, Xu's father stepped forward.
Xu Damao didn't care, but Xu's father didn't want to fall out with Yi Zhonghai, but this couldn't be the case.
Otherwise, the people in the courtyard will think that the Xu family is easy to bully.
"Lao Yi!"
"Fifty, this is my family's bottom line. If you continue to cheat on your accounts, don't say anything. We'll let the police handle it."
After Xu's father finished speaking, the crying Jia Zhang suddenly stopped.
Fifty? Half of it is missing!
Worth it.
Yi Zhonghai understood that this was the Xu family's final concession, so he agreed on behalf of the Jia family without waiting for Jia Zhang's agreement.
"good."
Qin Huairu felt relieved after hearing this, but then looked at Yi Zhonghai.
There was pleading in his eyes.
Yi Zhonghai looked at Qin Huairu and softened his tone, "Qin Huairu, how much can your family afford?"
Qin Huairu wiped the tears from her face and exhaled a breath of hot breath, "Master, I, there are only 46 left in our family."
"I have to leave some for Dongxu..."
Qin Huairu's voice became lower and lower, and finally she sobbed softly.
Yi Zhonghai sighed, "I still have twenty yuan."
As he said that, he took out a roll of money from his pocket, unfolded it, took out two big black tens, and handed it to Qin Huairu.
"Thank you, sir."
Qin Huairu thanked her and didn't look away until Yi Zhonghai put the remaining money in his pocket.
At this time, Shazhu saw Qin Huairu's troubled expression. The pain in his lower body was relieved now, so he said to Qin Huairu, "Sister Qin, I still have ten dollars here. You can take it for emergencies first."
Qin Huairu was overjoyed after hearing this and quickly stepped forward and held Sha Zhu's hand, "Zhu Zhu, thank you!"
"As I said, there is no need to talk about the relationship between our two families."
After speaking, he touched Qin Huairu's hand again, then took out a handful of money from his pocket, counted out ten yuan and handed it to Qin Huairu.
Then, Qin Huairu looked around.
There is no sound around.
Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui even ignored her.
Qin Huairu sighed, and then said to Xu Damao, "You wait here, I will get you money right away."
Seeing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang rolled her eyes and hurriedly ran into the house behind her.
Outside, Yang Xiaotao checked the time, said hello to everyone, and then led Ran Qiuye home. There was no point in looking at it anymore. It was better to go home and read to earn credits.
When everyone saw it, they didn't want to watch the show anymore and went home each other.
However, after what happened today, the people in the courtyard have completely lost their respect for the Jia family. It is a den of white-eyed wolves with no good people.
After a while, Qin Huairu came out with a pile of money and handed it to Xu Damao personally.
"This matter has changed."
Xu Damao kicked the money into his pocket and said, "This is the end of the story."
Qin Huairu nodded, expressed her courage to the three uncles, and thanked Si Zhu.
Silly Zhu chuckled, but when he went home, he walked with a limp and kept sucking air-conditioning from his mouth.
When Xu Damao returned home, he looked at the scratches on his face and scolded Jia Zhang again.
Xu and his father went to rest in the house. They would have to find someone to repair the roof tomorrow. Don't wait until it snows. The house is waiting for someone to die.
In the Jia family, Jia Dongxu looked at the beams with his eyes blankly. He could hear the movement in the yard clearly. That sentence of "crippling" deeply hurt his heart.
Jia Zhang wiped her eyes.
Xu Damao made her see a little dazzled these two times.
However, I hold on to my family's money tightly.
Qin Huairu ignored him and asked Xiao Dangbanggong to sleep.
Thinking about the attitude of the people in the courtyard, I felt miserable. Then I thought about the uncle and Shazhu, and I felt a surge of hope.
Tomorrow I must thank Mr. Yi and Shazhu. Come and come back again and again, only in this way can we have a long-term future.
"Shamao, wait for me!"
Silly Zhu lay on the bed with his butt stuck out, covered with a quilt, looking miserable.
"Damn it, when will it be good..."
The next day, Yang Xiaotao got up and went to work.
Recently, the steel rolling mill has taken on a lot of tasks, and it also has to build heating furnaces for the southern garrison area, and the materials used are all high-quality materials.
This is also required by superiors, otherwise how dare the steel rolling mill waste it?
Steel rolling mill, kitchen.
Silly Zhu got up early and stood at the door of the kitchen.
He looked at the time on the wall with a sneer on his face.
When everyone in the kitchen had arrived, they saw Xu Damao walking over with a white stripe on his face.
I saw Shazhu from afar, and my heart skipped a beat.
However, he is not afraid. The beating last night helped him regain his confidence.
"Xu Damao, you are late!"
When the two of them got closer, they were not at war with each other. Instead, Shazhu looked cheerful.
Then he said something that surprised Xu Damao, and took a pen and put a tick behind Xu Damao's name.
Xu Damao frowned and looked up at the clock, "Silly Zhu, was I not late when I entered the factory?"
"When you enter the factory, you enter the factory. Our kitchen is so far away from the factory. If you are wandering around the factory area, isn't that why you are late?"
"you…"
Xu Damao's eyelids jumped up and down because he was so angry at Silly Zhu, "You, you can do it."
Silly Zhu sneered.
The two of them came to the kitchen, and Shazhu arranged the tasks.
"Xu Damao, peel the potatoes."
MCA brought a basket of potatoes, and Xu Damao found a stool to sit down without saying anything.
After a while, Silly Zhu came over again.
"Such a thick skin? You are wasting national property!"
Xu Damao dropped the kitchen knife as soon as he hit it, "I thought it was a waste, so I ate a piece of the skin!"
“Are you the chef or am I?”
"you?"
"Liu Lan, Xu Damao wasted food, write it down."
"Why!"
"you!"
Xu Damao was furious, pointing at the people in the kitchen and trembling with anger.
"Work quickly and delay cooking. Comrade workers will not be able to eat. Just wait and get out."
Xu Damao stared at Silly Zhu for a while, then sat down and cut potatoes with a knife.
At noon, the queue for the main dishes in the cafeteria was very long. The director of the cafeteria looked outside and ran into the kitchen angrily.
"Silly Zhu, what's the matter? You haven't started eating yet?"
Silly Zhu spread his hands and said, "Director, these potatoes have just been cut, and there's nothing I can do about it."
As he said that, he looked at Xu Damao who was standing aside.
"I don't care, hurry up and cook."
The director said, giving Xu Damao a look full of warning.
Xu Damao was so tired that he couldn't even lift his arms. How could he care about this at the moment?
