Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1060 The quaint box

He couldn't believe that Mantan would really give in and marry Jia Zhang back honestly. There would definitely be other dramas next.

The facts were as expected by Zhang Yu. Just two days after the incident, he learned from Feng Laoliu that Mantan accidentally fell while riding his bicycle and broke his leg.

The word "accidentally" is used quite interestingly here.

"Did you really break it?"

"It was really broken, and I was pushed to the operating room at that time." Feng Laoliu nodded and couldn't help but sigh: "Speaking of which, the man surnamed Man is quite cruel. If he said he would attack me, he would really do it!"

"What's the reaction over there?" Zhang Yu said, pointing to the courtyard next door with his chin.

"What other reaction could there be? As soon as she heard that after getting married, she would have to serve a full tank of food and drink, Mrs. Jia and Zhang flinched. She said she would not give up, but she did not force her to marry him within a month. She." When talking about the Jia family, Feng Laoliu looked disdainful.

According to him, Mrs. Jia Zhang still doesn't know how to scheme. If she were a really scheming person, she would probably marry him impatiently.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As the head of the family, Mantan won’t be able to get out of bed for a while. Although the two children are not young, they are not yet adults. If you marry at this time, let alone whether you will get the gratitude of a man, you will definitely be able to do so. Take this opportunity to establish your feet.

Just by looking at Feng Laoliu's expression, Zhang Yu knew what she was thinking.

He shook his head, Jia Zhang was not unsmart, but too smart.

Otherwise, in the original plot, Qin Huairu wouldn't have been able to trick Fool for a lifetime.

Of course, this also has something to do with Shazhu's own lack of care.

It was precisely because she was smart that she knew that when she got married at this time, she would not only have to serve Manchu lying on the bed, but she would also have to take care of Manchu's two children in order to prevent others from gossiping.

Jia Zhang knew very clearly how tiring these things would be.

Because of this, she kept silent about the forced marriage.

As for the rest of the Jia family, Qin Huairu just gave birth to a child and has not yet given birth.

The heavy bleeding after childbirth has left her lying in bed. If her mother-in-law gets married at this time, but to someone who breaks her leg and needs to be taken care of, what will she do?
Who will take care of her, and who will take care of the little girl?
And Jia Dongxu probably thinks the same way. The wife, children and children at home need to be taken care of. If my mother gets married at this time, those jobs will become his.

It has to be said that Mantan will seize the weaknesses of human nature.

Just breaking his leg can solve his current biggest dilemma.

As for the other conditions of the Jia family, the wedding date has been postponed, so naturally the betrothal gift and so on will also be postponed.

Moreover, he broke his leg, which was when he needed money. As long as Jia Zhang didn't want to be stabbed in the back, she would not dare to ask for control of his salary at this time.

The same goes for changing jobs for Jia Dongxu. Anyway, he has broken his leg now and can't even go to work for a while, and the relationship is even more difficult to leave.

We can't let him drag his broken leg around and try to make connections for him.

Zhang Yu shook his head and thought these two families were quite interesting.

After this incident, the Jia family had nothing to do recently, which made Zhang Yu feel quite bored and could only wait for the notification wholeheartedly.

I just don’t know why, but nearly half of the students in the class have received the notice, but there is still no news about his notice. If he hadn't been confident in his achievements, he might have been as restless as Wang Rui.

But even so, facing his family's caution, he couldn't stay at home any longer.

In order to get some fresh air, he recently went to the pigeon market whenever he had free time.

He also went to the pigeon market that day. He wandered aimlessly in the pigeon market, and also bought some odds and ends, an old tea cake, some second-hand books and some rare gadgets.

Just when he was about to leave after shopping, an old man who was squatting in the corner suddenly rushed to Zhang Yu and said with a pleading look on his face: "Can you also take a look at my box?"

The old man didn't want to stop people shamelessly, but he had been at the pigeon market for several days, and no one was interested in the box in his hand.

Most of the people who come to the pigeon market come to buy food and various bills, or at least some daily necessities, such as cloth, wool and the like. Very few people are interested in these old things.

After waiting for several days, he saw one. He just saw the young man buying several old gadgets at the front stalls, so he thought of coming over to try it. If the old lady at home doesn't go to the hospital, it will be too late.

Zhang Yu looked down and saw the old man holding a simple box in his hand, which was covered with traces of time.

As he looked at the box, the old man stared at him closely, his eyes full of pleading.

The box in the old man's hand seemed to be made of decent material, and it was also engraved with complex patterns, which seemed to be of some value.

He asked curiously: "Old man, don't be anxious, speak slowly."

The old man said: "The old woman at home is sick and has been lying in bed for several days. She is in urgent need of money and has no choice but to sell the things left by her son."

"Tch, don't believe him." A young man guarding the stall said with disdain: "This is an old liar. He has been squatting there for several days."

The young man said and pointed at another stall owner next to him: "If you don't believe me, ask him."

The stall owner he pointed at also nodded, and then took the initiative to solicit customers: "If you want to buy a box, I have some here, and they are much newer than his."

The old man's face turned red and he wanted to refute but didn't know what to say.

Just looking at the old man's appearance, Zhang Yu couldn't bear it, and he also felt that the old man didn't look like a liar.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to buy the box and asked, "How much does it cost?"

When the old man heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, and he quickly said: "Fifty yuan."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man and the stall owner both looked at Zhang Yu with understanding expressions. The meaning in their eyes seemed to be saying: "Look, I didn't lie to you, this is a liar!"

The stall owner even raised his voice and said, "The boxes here don't cost me fifty yuan. You only need to give me five yuan, and you can choose any of these boxes."

The old man's face turned even redder, and he kept saying, "I'm not lying. This box is really worth the price."

Zhang Yu ignored the two people gossiping nearby. He had the eyes to see that the box was worth the price alone. He took the old man to a corner and bought the box.

The old man said with great gratitude: "Even if I borrowed this money, please leave your contact information and I will definitely return it to you when the old lady gets better."
