The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

"Tsk, what do you know? I love my wife, and it's better than a bachelor like you."

He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao with a disdainful expression, as if he was saying something.

"Hey…"

At this time, Xu Damao could still refute, but Yi Zhonghai and others had already walked out of Yi Zhonghai's house, so Xu Damao became silent.

Everyone in the yard could see three old men coming over, followed by Jia Dongxu and his wife, and they immediately started talking.

It has to be said that there is no stupid person living in this courtyard. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that the protagonist of this meeting is the Jia family.

"Okay, be quiet."

After Yi Zhonghai and the other two sat down, they knocked on the table to quiet the meeting.

Yi Zhonghai and the others looked at each other before Yi Zhonghai spoke, mainly because it was Yi Zhonghai who organized today's event.

"Dear neighbors, we are holding this meeting today because the Jia family is having a hard time. Let's see if there is any way we can help."

After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Qin Huairu, who had been prepared, immediately stood up and walked to the front.

"Please lend a hand. Our family is in such a difficult situation right now. We can't even afford to eat. Dongxu works so hard every day, but the salary he earns is still not enough to buy food."

As Qin Huairu spoke, tears began to fall.

I don’t know if it was because of Qin Huairu’s crying, but the neighbors still think that Qin Huairu is the only one in the Jia family who has a hard life. Don’t you see that even now, Jia Zhang still looks nonchalant and keeps looking at her without paying any attention.

Everyone started discussing it, but no one said what to do.

Yi Zhonghai cast his gaze towards where He Yuzhu was. He originally wanted to ask He Yuzhu to come out and lift him up, but now he found that He Yuzhu actually lowered his head and didn't even look at this side.

"Everyone can tell us what ideas you have and see if we can help the Jia family."

Yi Zhonghai shouted again loudly, trying to attract He Yuzhu's attention, but He Yuzhu didn't dare to come out because he was next to Liu Lin.

Yi Zhonghai is feeling exhausted now. No one is standing up for him. Originally, he had He Yuzhu as his thug, but he is gone now. He Yuzhu has also stayed away from him since they got married and is no longer obedient.

"How about everyone provide some food so that the Jia family can live better? You know, we are a civilized courtyard. We respect the old and love the young. Helping each other is our purpose."

Yi Zhonghai could only call out alone, hoping that everyone would donate supplies to the Jia family.

No one responded to this. It would be fine if some money was donated, but almost no one would give food. Not only is food expensive in the Pigeon Market, it is also hard to buy. No one would give food to the Jia family now.

"Master, what you said is not true. We don't lack food. It's not us who caused the Jia family to have such a hard time."

Aunt Lin, Jia Zhang's neighbor, was not polite at all. She stood up and spoke to Yi Zhonghai.

"Sister Lin, I didn't say that. The main thing is that the Jia family is really in trouble and it's a matter of everyone helping out."

Yi Zhonghai said in a gentle voice.

"No, I can lend a hand, but I can't ask for food. My family doesn't have enough food. Look at this courtyard. Who else is as fat and big as Jia Zhang?"

Aunt Lin pointed at Jia Zhang and said unreasonably.

All the neighbors saw that it was true. Although they were not full, Jia Zhang's face was still pale and clean, and her weight was obviously not light. She did not look like a hungry person at all.

"What are you talking about? I'm just bloated."

Upon seeing this, Jia Zhang hurriedly explained, and then glared at Aunt Lin fiercely. Aunt Lin glared back not to be outdone.

In the end, the two of them still had some sense and did not start swearing at each other in front of everyone.

Seeing that everyone in the yard was watching, Yi Zhonghai didn't dare to talk about donating food anymore. He could only look at the two people sitting next to him, hoping that they would help him talk about it.

But Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui ignored him completely. They were not stupid. If they helped Yi Zhonghai now, they might be put in a sack in the middle of the night.

Seeing that no one supported him, Yi Zhonghai became furious and had to take out ten dollars from his pocket and slam it on the table.

"Everyone can donate a little bit, even a few cents is a token of my appreciation. I will set an example by donating 10 yuan."

When everyone saw that Yi Zhonghai was angry, they looked at each other for a few times, and then people came forward one after another. Everyone gave him or her fifty cents, just to give face to Brother Yi Zhonghai.

Liu Minghui and several other families sitting together also donated one dollar each, but they couldn't refuse because of Yi Zhonghai's name.

He Yuzhu's house was taken over by Liu Lin, who completely ignored Yi Zhonghai's fixed gaze. Yi Zhonghai saw that He Yuzhu was useless, so he had to give up the idea of ​​asking He Yuzhu to pay more money.

Finally, Yan Bugui made a count and found that everyone donated a total of 35.60 yuan, both in small and large amounts. Because Liu Haizhong also cared about his reputation, he donated 10 yuan each, trying to put himself in the same position as Yi Zhonghai.

"Huai Ru, take this money. It's a token of our appreciation."

Yi Zhonghai handed the money to Qin Huairu, who took it with gratitude and thanked everyone.

"Thank you everyone. The Jia family will remember your kindness. Thank you."

Qin Huairu's tearful expression made many men in the courtyard feel distressed, but most of them had wives by their side, and many women thought that Qin Huairu was a vixen who was born to seduce men.

They all whispered warnings to their men not to pay any attention to Qin Huairu.

Finally, Yi Zhonghai dispersed the meeting and everyone went back home.

Xu Damao had not gone back yet and followed Liu Minghui to the front yard.

"Why, is there something wrong with Damao?"

Seeing this, Liu Minghui invited Xu Damao into his house and sat down.

"Nothing, just came to see my nephew."

When Liu Minghui heard this, he came over with the child.

"Look at my nephew, why don't you hurry up and get married? Look at how good Zhuzi's life is. Maybe you can have a baby next year."

Xu Damao didn't care about it at all, he was enjoying himself now and didn't want to leave.

"There's no rush. My mother has already arranged it for me."

"She seems to be a lady from a noble family."

Xu Damao was talking about Xu's mother. Liu Minghui thought it was probably Lou Xiao'e. Thinking that the only naive girl in the original drama was also going to marry into the family, Liu Minghui didn't know whether to intervene.

"That's great. Remember to let me know when you decide."

Liu Minghui said with a smile, planning to take things one step at a time.

The courtyard is different now, and the main problem is that I don’t know if Xu Damao will be infertile like in the original drama. It seems that I have to let Xu Damao check it that day.

"No problem, I'll treat you to a drink once we settle it."

Xu Damao said immediately.

Xu Damao stayed with Liu Minghui for a while and then left. He went straight out of the courtyard and no one knew where he went.
