Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 14: Beasts and beasts
After dinner, Yi Zhonghai's attitude towards Jia Dongxu became even better, and he seemed to be treating him as his own son.

When Sha Zhu was washing up by the sink, he could still hear Yi Zhonghai praising Jia Dongxu. He said that in the whole courtyard, Dongxu was the most filial and had the most promising future.

What’s funny is that Jia Zhang’s words “you accepted Dongxu as your disciple” dragged Yi Zhonghai from heaven to hell, and he ran back from the Jia family in a panic with his wife.

Sha Zhu ignored him. At this time, Yi Zhonghai was still hoping for a miracle and would not easily accept a disciple.

After returning to the house, Yi Zhonghai and his wife did not sleep. Miao Cuilan, as Yi Zhonghai's eyes and ears in the courtyard, was responsible for supervising the affairs of the courtyard. She took advantage of Yi Zhonghai's absence to tell him what the deaf old lady had said.

"What do you think the old lady meant?"

Yi Zhonghai always felt that the words of the deaf old lady had a profound temptation to him, but he couldn't figure out what those temptations were.

However, he knew that the deaf old lady's identity and connections would be very useful to him.

"I don't understand either. Please take care of her recently. She is so old and alone, so she has a lot of inconveniences at ordinary times."

Miao Cuilan did not refuse and agreed directly. The deaf old lady already had relief from the street office, so they did not need to pay too much. Besides, the couple was not short of money, and Yi Zhonghai's income was considered high in the courtyard.

Sha Zhu was just about to go to bed, but the little girl He Yushui kept pestering him and was unwilling to sleep with He Daqing.

He Daqing was a little puzzled and asked, "Don't you mind your brother squeezing you when he sleeps?"

He Yushui hesitated for a moment, but the temptation of candy finally prevailed: "Dad, you reek of alcohol, I don't want to sleep with you."

He Daqing glared at her.

He Yushui was not afraid at all. She took her things and ran to Sha Zhu's bed.

Sha Zhu had no way to refuse and could only agree to her.

The He family was getting ready to rest, but the Jia family hadn't gone to bed yet.

Jia Dongxu told her everything that happened during the day, and then asked worriedly, "Mom, did I do something wrong? I shouldn't have told Master Yi about becoming his disciple?"

Jia Zhang shook her head: "It's okay. You saw it too. The fact that he came to our house for dinner means that he didn't blame you. Your father said that Yi Zhonghai was too stubborn and wanted to control everything.

He won't accept you as his apprentice because he doesn't have control over you now. When he feels that he can completely control you, he will take the initiative to bring it up even if you don't say it.

What you need to do now is to behave yourself well and make him feel that you are a filial and reliable person. Okay, it’s getting late, go to bed quickly! "

When I woke up, it was a new day. This also meant that we were one day closer to the establishment of the retirement group.

It turns out that Sha Zhu has been a puppet in the hands of others all his life, unable to see clearly the people and things around him.

This made it difficult for Sha Zhu to figure out the time to set up the retirement group. He had to learn how to cook every day and didn't have much energy to pay attention to these things.

There were so many people in the hospital, but he couldn't find a collaborator. After looking around, he found that only Xu Damao was suitable.

But now Xu Damao is still a little kid, and his biggest dream is to use the money he got from his father to take the most beautiful girl in the class shopping.

I just don’t know how this unfortunate kid offended the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai, making them hate him so much.

No matter how much you hate it, the fate of this unfortunate child is better than that of Sha Zhu. At least he doesn't have to work as a workhorse for the Jia family.

When Sha Zhu woke up in the morning, nothing special happened. He just secretly fed He Yushui a piece of candy, which made the little girl smile all morning. When He Daqing saw it, he asked her why she was so happy. The little girl covered her mouth and said nothing.

She knew how to keep secrets at such a young age, no wonder she was able to keep the secret of Qin Huairu having an IUD for more than ten years. If Lou Xiao'e hadn't brought the child back, I guess this unlucky girl would never have told the secret until she died.

Seeing that He Yushui didn't say anything, He Daqing didn't ask either. He was a grown man and really wasn't that attentive.

On this day, Jia Dongxu continued to please Yi Zhonghai according to Jia Zhang's instructions. Yi Zhonghai enjoyed this treatment, but he never agreed to accept Jia Dongxu as his apprentice.

In the workshop, a worker in his forties asked for leave for some time because of family matters. This did not attract the attention of others.

After get off work, Yi Zhonghai returned to the courtyard and went straight to the backyard, to the home of the deaf old lady.

"Old lady, I've been busy these days and haven't come to see you. How are you doing?"

The deaf old lady finally waited for Yi Zhonghai to come, and the wrinkles on her face were all smiling: "I'm fine, Zhonghai, among so many people in the courtyard, you are the most filial."

"Flatterer." Xu Fugui and Liu Haizhong, who had just returned home, heard the voice and muttered with disdain.

Hearing the sound of the two doors, Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady lowered their voices.

The deaf old lady looked at Yi Zhonghai with a look of love and pity, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Old lady, why are you looking at me like that?"

The deaf old lady sighed, attracting Yi Zhonghai's attention, and then said: "I feel sorry for you. You are such a good person, how come you still don't have a child? God is too unfair to you."

The child was a pain in Yi Zhonghai's heart, and every time he mentioned it, his face turned unhappy. But the one who mentioned this was a deaf old lady, an elder in the hospital, so he had to endure it.

"Maybe it's just not fate!"

The deaf old lady shook her head: "I know you care about your wife and don't want her to be sad. I'm old and have met many people. There is nothing wrong with your wife's character, but her health is too poor. She didn't eat well when she was young, which hurt her body. The hope of having a child is too slim."

Yi Zhonghai was also very helpless about this. He couldn't just change his wife for the sake of the child! He didn't dare to change his wife casually. Once he changed his wife, his reputation over the years would be ruined. Miao Cuilan's family was not without people, and they would not let him go easily.

"Old lady, please stop talking. It's all my fault that Cuilan had to accompany me through hard times when I was young. I've understood. It's best to have children, but it doesn't matter if I don't have children. I'll spend my whole life with Cuilan."

The deaf old lady certainly didn't force Yi Zhonghai to abandon his wife, this was just a test for Yi Zhonghai. If Yi Zhonghai had the idea of ​​abandoning his wife, she would definitely not dare to cooperate with him.

"Zhong Hai, I'm glad you think this way. Cuilan is a good kid who helps you take good care of the family. With her support, you can work wholeheartedly. Usually, she is the only one in our hospital who takes care of me and talks to me. I really can't bear to leave her.

You are also a good kid. It would be nice if everyone in our courtyard could be like you two."

Yi Zhonghai was very pleased with the praise from the deaf old lady. He knew that the deaf old lady often went to the Military Control Commission and was very familiar with the people there. Those people had considerable power, and the leaders of the steel mill were very respectful when they saw them.

He was really envious of the deaf old lady for having this ability.

It would be great if the deaf old lady could tell those people about these compliments. As long as he could have a good reputation in front of those people, it would be convenient for him to do anything in the future.

"Old lady, this is what I should do. I don't understand other great principles, but I know that respecting and being filial to the elderly is never wrong. I will let Cuilan take care of you more in the future. You can live in this courtyard without worry, and no one can bully you. I say."
