Siheyuan: Father Yi Zhonghai and Sister-in-law Lou Xiaoe

When Jia Zhang saw this situation, she was about to chase after them to ask if they had taken the wrong path.

But in the end he still didn't get up.

Anyway, I listened to the deaf old lady. Even if something really happened, Sha Zhu would not blame me.

The main reason is that Jia Zhang is really out of strength now.

He was limping along, pulling a rickshaw with a person sitting on it. It must have been tiring to travel such a long distance.

The deaf old lady walked out of Laohu Hutong, turned into an alley, then came to another alley, and walked through two more alleys before arriving at a courtyard that looked very ordinary.

There is an empty house outside, which looks like a teahouse in the past.

Then he stepped forward and knocked on the doorknob a few times.

About a minute later, there was a knock on the door from inside.

The deaf old lady pressed the button a few more times before the door opened.

A middle-aged man stuck his head out, looked around, and then let the deaf old lady in.

Finally, the middle-aged man looked again and after a minute, he closed the door.

"You finally jumped out again."

"I want to see if I can completely wipe you out this time!"

An old man with a hunched back was watching from a distance.

......

Just when Jia Zhang had rested for an hour and finally felt cold, she could no longer sit still and remembered that the deaf old lady had not told her how long she should wait.

I had to get up and walk around.

"Rickshaw, to the southern suburbs!"

Suddenly, a man of similar age to Jia Zhang ran over and shouted.

"No!" Jia Zhang said, then immediately changed her mind: "How much?"

"I should be the one asking you this!" The visitor looked at Jia Zhang in confusion, with a look of surprise on his face: "Forget it, I'll just find someone else. You're so old and still pulling a cart. Aren't you afraid that you'll die halfway through the journey?"

To be honest, he was really scared.

"You're the one who's running away. It's two cents. Go if you want!"

Jia Zhang didn't want to do it at first, but thinking that she could make money, she decided to do it.

"Two cents? Go!"

The visitor immediately paid the money and sat on it.

I haven't heard of such a cheap rickshaw.

"Ah, you're leaving now?"

Jia Zhang felt a little regretful, as this was obviously a low price to ask for.

"if not!"

"Hurry up!"

He was also afraid that the old woman would go back on her word.

"Okay, sit down."

Jia Zhang gritted her teeth and thought that two cents was still money.

Who knows, after you go there, you may be able to bring someone with you when you come back, and he may not leave unless you give him fifty cents.

Thinking of this, Jia Zhang's legs and feet became much faster.

"Hey, you're still crippled?!"

Mainly because I was sitting in the car and felt that the car was shaking a little, so I observed it.

"Why, no, I can just send you there."

Jia Zhang muttered something and pulled hard.

If you hurry up, you might be able to make a few more dollars.

"Alas, Zhang Cuihua..."

The deaf old lady had just turned into Laohu Hutong when she saw Zhang Cuihua driving away with her cart.

"Why does that person look so much like Lin Dashan?"

The deaf old lady is very familiar with Lin Dashan.

That’s the child’s father.

More than an hour later, Jia Zhang stopped the car and said breathlessly, "We're here!"

"I'll give you an extra dime. It's really not easy!"

Lin Dashan was really worried along the way.

I really regret choosing this rickshaw.

Not only was she a female driver, but she was also a female driver who was about the same age as herself.

The key point is that he is actually a cripple.

I'm afraid it would be a problem to just pull this rickshaw, not to mention having to pull him along.

"Okay, thank you!"

Naturally, Jia Zhang was attracted by money.

I'm sure you'd be happy to get an extra dime.

"You're welcome."

Lin Dashan nodded and left.

He held another two cents in his hand.

If you ask someone else, it will cost at least fifty cents.

Jia Zhang was very happy to take out the three cents she earned.

This may be the first time she has made money.

He pulled the rickshaw again and took a stroll.

There is no need to rush back to help the deaf old lady now. We don’t want to make a wasted trip.

No matter what, we have to pull someone along.

......

evening.

Just as every household was cooking, eating and chatting outside, Jia Zhang came back limping.

With a droopy face, he didn't even respond to Yan Bugui's question from the front yard.

Many neighbors with a keen sense of smell felt that there was another good show to watch.

They all followed.

After Jia Zhang walked into the central courtyard, she looked towards Sha Zhu's house. Now it was also her home. Her steps slowed down a lot, as if she was afraid of something.

When she saw Sha Zhu standing at the door, Jia Zhang ran a few steps quickly, then fell to her knees at the bottom of the stairs with a plop.

"Zhu Zi, I'm sorry, I lost my mother."

"When I went back to get him he was gone."

"I have searched all over Laohu Hutong. I have knocked on every door and asked every household."

"They said they didn't find mom!"

"Hit me, woooo!"

Jia Zhang made a lot of noises, and they sounded as if she was very sad and heartbroken.

However, what everyone heard was the word "Mom" from Jia Zhang's mouth.

"Who is Jia Zhang's mother? She should have been buried in the earth long ago."

"You didn't understand. It should be Shazhu's mother."

"You're crazy. Shazhu's mother was buried when Shazhu was a child."

"No, he should be talking about Shazhu's biological mother."

"What does Silly Zhu's biological mother mean?"

"The deaf old lady! Didn't you hear what people outside are saying? Sha Zhu is the child of He Daqing and the deaf old lady."

"So what you mean is that the deaf old lady is missing?"

"..."

The discussion among the guys seemed to be getting more and more bizarre.

"I'm not dead yet, don't cry for me!"

The deaf old lady heard Jia Zhang's crying outside and came out.

"Ah, you, mom, you're not lost, you're back!"

Jia Zhang's crying face turned into a smile, becoming even uglier.

"You're the one who lost it."

"What can you do at your age?"

"It's not reassuring at all."

the deaf old lady scolded.

It sounds a lot like parents scolding their children.

"Where have you been? How can you let mom come back by herself?"

Sha Zhu frowned. When he heard that the deaf old lady had come back on her own, a nameless anger rose in his heart.

If Jia Zhang was there at that time, Sha Zhu would probably have slapped her.

"Zhu Zi, could you please not yell in front of so many people..."

The deaf old lady originally wanted to stop Sha Zhu from calling her "Mom" all the time.

but.

"Silly Zhu, the deaf old lady is really your mother. No wonder she has been so nice to you all these years."

"Yeah, it seems like your mother is more normal."

"Yes, it's good."

"You guys really are like a family."

"..."

It is said that the eyes of the masses are sharp.

Now, these neighbors all think so.

The deaf old lady felt that her explanation seemed even more pale and powerless.
