Siheyuan: Fighting against the beasts under the pressure of the system

A neighbor happened to see Zhang Minghui and wanted him to go and inform them. He had a bicycle and could go back faster.

Liu Haizhong walked up to Zhang Minghui and started talking.

"Minghui, I know you have a grudge against the Jia family, but death is like the extinguishing of a light. No matter what the grudge is, we should let it go, don't you think?"

Zhang Minghui spoke in a low voice with a heavy expression.

"Second uncle, it's fine. I know, and you've seen it. I don't care much about the Jia family. I just want to live my own life steadily. Don't worry, Jia Dongxu is gone, so it's even more impossible for me to have a hard time with the Jia family."

Liu Haizhong nodded with satisfaction, patted Zhang Minghui's arm and praised him loudly.

"Well done, young people in the hospital should learn from you and be more open-minded and generous."

"So, Jia Dongxu is in trouble, but his wife doesn't know about it yet. You can go back by bike to let her know."

Zhang Minghui didn't want to get involved in the Jia family's affairs. There was only an orphan and a widow left. If anything happened, it would be difficult to explain.

Thinking quickly, Zhang Minghui found an excuse to fool Liu Haizhong.

"Uncle, I still have to write promotional materials!"

"You see, there's been a major safety accident in the factory, and our Propaganda Department will definitely be busy. If I leave now, will our Section Chief forgive me?"

Several neighbors nodded after hearing this. This was true. Now that someone has died, this is no small matter and all departments will be busy.

Liu Haizhong frowned and fell into deep thought.

After seeing this, Zhang Minghui gave Liu Haizhong an idea.

"Second Uncle, you can look for Sha Zhu! He works in the cafeteria. The food is ready at this time. He has nothing to do in the afternoon, so it's a good opportunity for him to notify Qin Huairu and accompany her to the hospital."

Several neighbors nodded happily. It was true that Sha Zhu was the most suitable candidate. Liu Hai rushed to the cafeteria excitedly.

As soon as he arrived at the cafeteria entrance, he saw Sha Zhu sitting on a large stone pillar in the distance. Liu Haizhong hurriedly trotted forward and shouted loudly.

"Silly, I have something to ask you."

Sha Zhu looked back, his expression changing constantly. He had just heard from people in the cafeteria that Jia Dongxu had been in trouble and had been crushed to death.

This news made Sha Zhu a little dazed.

It was well known in the hospital that he was thinking about Qin Huairu. He divorced his wife Miao Yufeng because of her. But after the divorce, Qin Huairu kept avoiding him and ignored him.

Sha Zhu was very upset about this and felt that Qin Huairu was a little heartless, and his heart was filled with hatred.

But every time he saw Jia Dongxu beating and scolding Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu couldn't help but feel sorry for her and felt that Qin Huairu shouldn't suffer these hardships.

He really wanted to teach Jia Dongxu a lesson and make him treat Qin Huairu better. The complicated and changeable emotions always made Sha Zhu particularly entangled.

When he heard today that Jia Dongxu had passed away, he felt an inexplicable joy in his heart, and he felt that his spring had come.

"Silly Zhu, what are you thinking about? I've been calling you for a long time, why don't you respond?"

He Yuzhu came back to his senses slowly and spoke insincerely.

"Second uncle, someone in the cafeteria just said that Brother Dongxu had an accident and was sent to the hospital. I'm not worried about him, so I came out to smoke a cigarette and pray for him. I hope he's safe."

Liu Haizhong thought Sha Zhu didn't know that Jia Dongxu was crushed to death on the spot, so he hurried to inform him.

"Silly Zhu, Dongxu was crushed to death on the spot, why are you still praying? I need your help with something, but the people in the hospital don't know about it yet. We can't leave, we have to work."

"You are fine. Can you please take a leave and inform his wife to go to the hospital and see Jia Dongxu for the last time?"

Hearing this, Sha Zhu stood up suddenly, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he nodded in agreement. He strode into the cafeteria and asked the director for leave.

.....

At this time, Qin Huairu was washing clothes in the yard. The laughter of the neighbors made Qin Huairu even more silent, and Qin Huairu's face looked a little haggard.

She has not been in a very good mood recently. After Jia Dongxu came home from get off work in the evening, he always remained silent, sitting on the kang smoking silently with a dull look in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Qin Huairu is worried about her man, but she doesn't know how to comfort him. This is not going to work.

Fortunately, Jia Dongxu said that he would visit Jia Zhang on his day off. Maybe Jia Zhang has the ability to enlighten him and make him happy. Then his man will be able to return to normal.

Suddenly, Sha Zhu's voice sounded from the Chuihua Gate.

"Sister Qin, something bad has happened to Brother Dongxu at the factory. Come with me to the hospital!"

Sha Zhu pushed his bicycle into the yard in a panic. Before he arrived, the voice came first.

When Qin Huairu heard Sha Zhu say that Dongxu was in trouble, her face turned pale in an instant. She stood up suddenly, but after taking two steps, she felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

The aunts and sisters were still in panic when they heard what Sha Zhu said. When they saw Qin Huairu fainted, they all screamed.

It was the third aunt who reacted quickly. She hurried forward to support Qin Huairu and pinched her philtrum. After a few seconds, Qin Huairu's eyelashes moved slightly, and then there was no movement again.

After a while, he finally struggled to open his eyes and saw a group of people gathered around him, with aunts and sisters cheering.

"Wake up, wake up."

The second aunt said to Sha Zhu with dissatisfaction.

"Silly Zhu, please don't spread lies. Look how scared Huairu was that she almost fainted."

"That's right, Silly Zhu, what are you talking about? Do you know the consequences of making up rumors?"

Several aunts and sisters-in-law started to criticize Sha Zhu, who became so anxious that his face turned red and he started to yell loudly.

"Everyone, think about it, if something hadn't really happened, would I have been able to run back from the factory? The factory asked me to come and inform everyone that Brother Dongxu had an accident in the workshop and he died."

Qin Huairu lay in the arms of the third aunt, tears falling down her face. The big tears hung on Qin Huairu's face, making the aunts watching around her sad.

Qin Huairu cried louder and louder, and asked with a sob.

"Silly Zhu, how come Dongxu is gone? He was fine when he went out this morning. You can't lie to me!"

Qin Huairu sat up, her eyes filled with tears, like pear blossoms in the rain, desolate and mournful.

Sha Zhu quickly told the story of what happened in the factory, and the aunts and sisters sighed. How could such a good person be gone just like that?

Qin Huairu struggled to stand up, wailing.

"Dongxu, Dongxu! How can you bear to leave like this? What will happen to our family if you leave?"

"My dear Dongxu, how could you be so cruel to abandon the three of us and just leave like that!"
