Siheyuan: 55 years, starting from a buyer

"He must be sent to the hospital." Mr. Chen concluded without hesitation.

The room suddenly became quiet. Everyone thought to themselves, if you were willing to send him to the hospital, you wouldn't be worrying here. They all looked at him expectantly.

"Are you still hesitating? You'll need stitches if you delay any longer and you won't be able to keep your hand." Mr. Chen said directly and clearly.

Jia Zhang asked unwillingly, "Can't you cure it yourself?"

"Would you be happier if I sawed off his arm? Let him become a one-armed man?" Mr. Chen said unhappily.

At this moment, Jia Dongxu was called by the factory's pest control team to drive away sparrows at night, and there was no one at home.

"Well... let's send him to the hospital right away. It's right to listen to Xiao Chen. He is a professional after all." Yi Zhonghai interrupted.

Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu looked at each other, neither of them could bear the weight of such a big child.

Qin Huairu looked at Chen Sheng and Dai Zhu helplessly.

Mr. Chen turned around and ignored him. Seeing Qin Huairu's affectionate eyes, Dai Zhu was almost heartbroken and had to carry the child on his shoulders.

The stick screamed in pain.

"Ouch! It hurts!" the guy screamed.

Jia Zhang felt heartbroken when she heard the screams of pain from the people being beaten with sticks.

Seeing this, Mr. Chen left the house.

Yi Zhonghai then said, "Xiao Chen, do you want to go with us?"

Chen snorted in anger, "What are you going to do? It's not like you're going to risk your life." Then he added, "Don't forget to get enough money. Wounds are not easy to heal."

Having said this, he set off without looking back.

Dai Zhu, carrying the stick, moved forward with difficulty. Only Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai were left in the room, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Are you looking at me? I'm an old lady already, where would I get so much money?" Jia Zhang started to act coquettishly.

Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai expectantly, but he was a little at a loss.

Finally, Yi Zhonghai went home to get the money, and they rushed to the hospital together.

"What happened?" Yi Zhonghai asked when he arrived at the hospital and saw that Gangun had been sent to the emergency room.

"It's not clear yet. The doctor hasn't come out yet." Dai Zhu replied.

Just then, a nurse informed them to pay the fee.

Yi Zhonghai turned a deaf ear.

However, Dai Zhu fumbled in his pocket for a while and said helplessly: "Grandpa, I was in a hurry to go out and forgot to bring money."

Yi Zhonghai thought: This fool looks dull, but he is quite smart at the critical moment!

Although the injury caused by the stick is worrying, it is actually not complicated to treat.

The next afternoon after being treated at the hospital, they were allowed to go home and recuperate.

When they reached the gate of the courtyard, Jia Zhang burst into tears: "My dear grandson, why have you suffered so much?"

This scene almost made the neighbors who were chatting there angry. They suspected it was a mourning ceremony and soon dispersed.

Gangun looked pale and walked into the yard silently.

"Brother, what happened to Ganggeng?" Liu Guangfu asked in confusion.

"That fool of his actually tied a mouse to his leg as a pet, and ended up getting bitten." Liu Guangtian couldn't help but tell the truth.

"What? Will he lose a leg?" Liu Guangfu was stunned.

"That's the thing. You must never learn from him." Liu Guangtian specifically reminded.

After hearing this, Liu Guangfu was shocked, "Wow, that's too much, now it's a real man!" He also said that he would never do such a stupid thing again.

Mr. Chen, who was standing by, heard all this and wondered how this matter could have spread like that.

In the evening, even Office Manager Wu heard about this and came to visit.

However, no one admitted that they were bitten by the mouse accidentally, as that would be too embarrassing.

"How's the lever?" Officer Wu asked with concern.

"It's okay, you just need to take good care of it." Qin Huairu looked at Gangeng with tears in her eyes and answered.

"Where are you injured?" Officer Wu asked about the specific injuries.

"Arm, do you see it's bandaged?" Jia Zhang asked with a slightly annoyed tone because Office Manager Wu came to visit empty-handed.

"Well, take good care of yourself and I'll come see him again." After saying that, Officer Wu left after giving some instructions.

Two days later, Gangun was resting in the yard when Yan Jiekuang came up to him, obviously quite interested in his affairs.

"Gang Geng, I heard that your bird was bitten by a mouse?" Yan Jiekuang asked with curiosity.

"Nonsense! Your bird will be bitten!" Upon hearing this, Gang Geng was furious and wanted to stand up and beat him, but he considered his own injuries.

"I didn't say that, everyone said that." Yan Jiekuang hurriedly defended himself.

"Nonsense! You are clearly slandering me! I'm so mad!" Bang Geng was so angry that he spoke without thinking and had no way to refute.

"I thought I was bitten by a bird, but it turned out that I just injured my arm!" Yan Jiekuang said with a disappointed look.

As soon as Banggeng returned home, he started complaining, accusing Yan Jiekuang of spreading the news that his bird had been bitten.

"Yan Fugui, get out here!" Jia Zhang now had the upper hand. She stood at the door of Yan Fugui with her hands on her hips and shouted loudly.

"What's the matter? What happened?" Yan Fugui rushed out of the house.

The noise was not only heard by him, but also attracted to the entire compound. Jia Zhang's voice spread from the front yard to the back yard, and could be heard clearly in the neighboring courtyards.

"It was your bird that was bitten for saying bad things about my bird!" Jia Zhang seized the opportunity and refused to let it go.

"What are you talking about?" Yan Fugui couldn't believe what he heard.

"Your Yan Jiekuang is spreading rumors outside. How is my Banggeng going to get married when he grows up?"

"Yan Fugui, I need to give you an explanation for this matter!" Jia Zhang cried and was determined to hold someone accountable.

Yan Fugui was terrified, and immediately pulled Yan Jiekuang over to ask for details: "Tell me clearly, what exactly is going on?"

"Ah, ah, ah, I really didn't say that, I didn't!" Yan Jiekuang was frightened by Jia Zhang and burst into tears.

"Who else could it be if not you? Bang Geng himself said it was you who said it!" Jia Zhang continued to accuse harshly.

"What exactly is going on?" Yan Fugui's face was full of anger, and he asked again sternly. As a teacher, he knew the importance of reputation...

"I was playing outside with them, and everyone said the same thing, and asked Banggeng when I came back," Yan Jiekuang explained with sobs.

"Madam Jia, it's really not what our Jie Kuang said. Arguing with him won't solve the problem." Yan Fugui said helplessly.

"No, your Jie Kuang also said that you are definitely responsible!" Jia Zhang didn't listen at all. She was determined not to miss any chance to make the bleeding worse!

Just when Yan Fugui was at a loss, Director Wu appeared in the yard with the street office staff.

Seeing Jia Zhang arguing, Director Wu frowned and asked, "Jia Zhang, what are you doing?"

"Ah...well, I didn't do anything." Although Jia Zhang was fierce and stubborn, she was afraid of the power of officials, especially when she saw the street office staff following her.

"Take us to your home to meet Banggeng." Director Wu said unhappily.

"Okay, okay!" Seeing that there were people accompanying her holding items, Jia Zhang immediately smiled and forgot about what had happened before.

"My dear grandson, get up. There are guests coming to see you." Jia Zhang shouted as soon as she entered the house.

"No need to come, the patient should have a good rest." The staff around Director Wu responded quickly.

Hearing that some children here were harmed by rats, they came to visit in the name of the street office, which demonstrates the correctness of the rat eradication campaign.

This is exactly the reason for the visit: to educate the public through this incident and understand that the four pests are extremely harmful, are of no benefit to society, and must be completely eradicated.

After the visit, the group left after leaving gifts.

When he was leaving, Director Wu saw Yan Fugui and asked casually what the commotion was about: "What did Jia Zhang make a fuss about at your house just now?"

"My son Yan Jiekuang heard from others that someone tied a mouse to a bird, and the bird was eaten. Jiekuang then went to ask what happened," Yan Fugui explained.

Everyone who came with Officer Wu couldn't help but laugh.

Officer Wu warned: "Don't spread this matter. It will be bad for the child's reputation."

"Oh, that's really strange. I don't know who first spread the news. In fact, he tied a mouse to his quilt and got bitten on the arm." Officer Wu looked helpless, and even the community workers who came to visit knew nothing about it.

I thought he was a good role model for everyone to learn from, but he turned out to be just a naive child!

A person who might be a reporter or propaganda worker chimed in: “Even a cautionary tale has a moral.”

"That's right. This just makes everyone understand that rats are extremely dangerous and children should be kept away from them." Someone else commented.

Three days passed.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, come and have a look, your grandson is in the newspaper!" Yan Fugui walked into the courtyard holding a newspaper in his hand.

When Chen Chengsheng opened the store, he had already heard the news, which was about a boy from the Jia family in a small courtyard in Nanluoguxiang who was bitten because he tied up a rat in his bed and played with it.

We would like to remind everyone to make it clear to children that they should never associate with rats. Rats are very dangerous and are one of the commonly known pests. They are an inseparable opponent in the lives of ordinary people!

A lot of people gathered in the yard. Dai Zhu seemed the most excited. He snatched the newspaper from Yan Fugui's hand and read loudly.

But when he was halfway through reading, everyone in the courtyard couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Jia Zhang was extremely angry about this. She rushed up and slapped Sha Zhu hard in the face, and then tore the newspaper into pieces.

"My dear grandson, why are you so unlucky?" Jia Zhang sobbed sadly.

But seeing that Han Geng was indeed suffering, no one else came to disturb him this time, and Officer Wu also chose to remain silent.

After this incident, Han Geng became famous in several large courtyards nearby, and many people knew about the accident he caused by tying a mouse to a bird.

Han Geng himself didn't seem to notice this and he has been living a very comfortable life recently.

Not long ago, community workers came to visit him with various food; and after media reports, he received a bunch of condolence items.

Although the Jia family did not have good relationships in this compound, many neighbors would still come to visit them with gifts of cakes and pastries because of Han Geng's plight.

Even though Yi Zhonghai was quite popular in the factory, despite Jia Dongxu's performance, several colleagues still heard about Han Geng's situation and bought him gifts to express their concern.
