Siheyuan: Being a fisherman in 1962

As Qin Huairu screamed, the atmosphere in the ward suddenly became tense.

Seven or eight parents of students came in with their children, surrounding the middle-aged woman.

His eyes fell on the body of Bang Geng lying on the hospital bed, who had been beaten so badly that his original appearance was almost unrecognizable. Bang Geng was wrapped in bandages like a mummy, with only a pair of terrified and helpless eyes showing.

When the group of children saw this, they were stunned at first, and then burst into unbridled laughter.

They gathered around the bed, pointing at the stick and making all kinds of jokes and taunts.

Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu's faces turned pale in an instant. They clenched their fists, with anger burning in their eyes.

Upon seeing this, the principal stepped forward to stop the mocking, severely criticized the students who had laughed, and ordered them to apologize to Bang Geng.

However, those kids didn't seem to buy it and continued to smile playfully. Some even made provocative faces at Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu.

Qin Huairu couldn't bear it any longer and rushed forward, wanting to teach those children a lesson.

Sha Zhu followed closely behind, and the two of them were aggressive and looked like they were ready to fight to the death.

The principal hurriedly grabbed them and persuaded both sides to calm down.

At this time, the middle-aged woman finally spoke.

"Is this how you educate your children? Stealing other people's things!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu were stunned.

Only then did they discover that the middle-aged woman was actually the mother of the student who had injured the stick.

"Your child beat my son like this, what else do you want?" Qin Huairu's anger grew even stronger, and she pointed at the middle-aged woman and said angrily.

The middle-aged woman sneered and said, "My child told me that it was Banggeng who provoked me first. Besides, he didn't hit me that hard. Are you trying to blackmail me?"

Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu were so angry that they were speechless.

"Parents from both sides should sit down and discuss compensation."

Following the principal's suggestion, the atmosphere in the ward became increasingly tense.

"My son Banggeng was beaten like this, you must compensate him in full until he recovers. If there are any sequelae left, you will be responsible for them to the end!" Qin Huairu stared at the middle-aged woman and said word by word.

The middle-aged woman sneered and retorted: "It's unreasonable."

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately resonated with other parents.

They all accused Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu, saying that their demands were too harsh and clearly blackmail.

"How can you say that? My family has been beaten like this, shouldn't they be compensated? How can you be so cold-blooded!"

As Qin Huairu finished speaking, Sha Zhu also stood up, glared at the parents, and shouted angrily: "You guys, don't go too far! We just want justice, but you bully us like this!"

The dispute between the two sides became more and more intense, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

"The parents of the student who hit others will pay the medical expenses until Banggeng recovers, and they will not be responsible for any subsequent expenses." Upon seeing this, the principal stepped forward to persuade them and tried to calm the situation.

Just as the principal was proposing a mediation plan, a parent suddenly stood up, looked around, and suggested: "Everyone, since we need compensation, let's pool the money together. But, Qin Huairu, you also have to reflect on it. Your son Bang Geng's behavior is indeed problematic."

When Qin Huairu heard this, her face turned pale. She was about to retort but was stopped by Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "We are willing to reflect on it, but you can't just accuse us like this. You know how hard that kid hit you. Besides, if this matter gets out of hand, the law is no joke."

The parents were shocked by Sha Zhu's words and started talking about it.

At this moment, a parent suddenly shouted, "I heard that you, Shazhu, are not Banggeng's biological father, right? What right do you have to stand up for them here?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole ward fell silent instantly.

Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu's faces both turned extremely ugly.

Sha Zhu clenched his fists and glared at the parent, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing this, the parent became even more proud and continued, "You can't educate your own children well, and you still want to blackmail others? What a joke!"

Qin Huairu couldn't bear it any longer, so she rushed forward, pointed at the parent and cursed, "You're talking nonsense! Although we are not Banggeng's biological parents, we have always treated him as our own son! What right do you have to slander us like this!"

The other parents were also angered by Qin Huairu's words and accused the parent of saying such things.

The parent was a little panicked when he saw this, but he still said stubbornly: "I'm just telling the truth."

Inside the ward, the atmosphere was like the calm before a storm, so depressing that it made people feel breathless.

Sha Zhu frowned and said in a loud and powerful voice: "Everyone, I, Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu are a legal couple, not the 'wild father' relationship you are talking about!"

The parents looked at each other, seemingly caught off guard by Sha Zhu's sudden attack.

However, at this moment, the parent who broke the news sneered and challenged, "Humph, a legal couple? Then why have you been to jail?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire ward was in an uproar again.

The parents were whispering and discussing among themselves, and their negative comments about Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu became increasingly intense.

Sha Zhu's face turned pale in an instant, and he clenched his fists as if he wanted to crush the anger.

Qin Huairu bit her lower lip tightly, tears flashing in her eyes. It was obvious that she was also hurt by this sudden accusation.

The atmosphere in the ward became increasingly tense, like a taut string that could break at any time.

The parents were talking a lot, and the accusations and ridicules were endless, as if they wanted to drown Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu in the endless waves of noise.

Sha Zhu clenched his fists tightly, veins popping out, and shouted, "Although we have made mistakes in the past, that is all in the past. We are now a legal couple, and we treat Bang Geng like our own son. We also have dignity and bottom line!"

After saying this, Sha Zhu's heart was churning like a violent storm, and flames of anger flashed in his eyes.

"You bunch of bastards!" Sha Zhu's voice exploded like thunder, shaking the entire ward.

He stood up suddenly, and his tall figure looked even more majestic under the light.

"Although we have made mistakes before, that is all in the past!"

However, at this moment, a parent suddenly sneered: "Humph, do you think you can cover it up like this? Don't forget, Uncle Three knows everything."

These words pierced Sha Zhu's heart like a sharp blade, and his face turned pale instantly.

The third uncle actually leaked his privacy!

A strong feeling of anger and disappointment surged in Sha Zhu's heart. He turned around abruptly and stared at the parent with sharp eyes.

"I must be blind to think that Third Master is a good person!"
