Siheyuan: 55 years, starting from a buyer

Xu Damao was extremely delighted about the good news that the blind old woman was left alone. After all, this old woman always sided with Sha Zhu, causing Xu Damao a lot of trouble.

"So it was because she was sick. When I passed by just now, I saw no one there. I guess everyone went to visit her." Mr. Chen then knew the reason.

Chapter 75 Tragicomedy

"What's going on? Do you know?" Mr. Chen continued to ask.

"I don't know either. When I just came back from home, Second Aunt mentioned it. She said that when she went to deliver food to them this morning, she found something wrong, and then she took them to the hospital for examination." Xu Damao explained patiently.

Recently, Xu Damao and Liu Haiyang have been getting along very well, and Xu Damao often gives Liu Haiyang handicrafts brought back from the countryside as gifts.

"They may be discharged soon. Unless they are very ill, ordinary people will not always eat in the hospital cafeteria," said Mr. Chen.

"Well, after they come back, I plan to go to Yi Zhongqiu to ask for details." Xu Damao made a plan.

"Then remember to tell me when you get the news." Chen Shengsheng understood his thoughts.

"Okay, I understand." Xu Damao agreed happily.

Outside the hospital ward, things were unfolding like a drama.

"Shazhu, you stay here with grandma for a while, I'll come over later." Yuzhu ordered.

"No! I don't want to! Brother, I feel a little uncomfortable too. It's really painful." He Yushui objected firmly.

Asking her to look after this old and deaf grandmother was like giving her an extra burden! The old man was kind to her, but he never had any good intentions towards her, so why should she take on this responsibility?

"Silly Zhu, Yu, why are you so ignorant? Auntie will come to cook and take over the shift.

Can you just hold it in for a while?" Yu Zhu tried to persuade her.

"Oh, no wonder everyone calls you Shazhu, brother, can't you be more considerate? If you are willing, then stay." He Yushui replied disdainfully, without changing his mind.

"You... forget it!" Seeing that he could not shake He Yushui, Yu Zhu sighed helplessly and walked into the ward.

"Uncle and Auntie, please go home and cook first. When the meal is ready, come and take over the shift between me and Yu Shui." He turned and told the Yi couple.

Chapter 69 Chaotic Changes

“How about letting He Yushui stay and accompany grandma first, and we can take over after dinner.

How about letting her go back for dinner then?" Yi Zhongqiu directly suggested to He Yushui.

“Uncle, she looks like she has a cold.

You guys take her home to rest, I'll take care of her here for the time being." Yu Zhu didn't insist on keeping He Yushui, because Yu was the only relative who truly cared for him after his father passed away.

Although he knew that Yu was unwilling to take care of the old grandmother, he did not pursue the matter further.

"That's good. I'll ask Auntie to prepare more food and your family can share." Yi Zhongqiu considered everyone in detail.

"Thank you, sir." Yu Zhu expressed his gratitude sincerely.

"Don't be so polite, Silly Zhu. We are a family after all." Yi Zhongqiu was very pleased with Yu Zhu's filial piety.

"Then you go back. If you need anything, ask the nurse for help." He gave another reminder before leaving.

"Don't worry, you can go back soon." Yu Zhu responded and gave He Yushui some caring instructions.

After Yi Zhonghai returned home, he and Mrs. Yi were busy preparing dinner. He packed a set of luggage to prevent his grandmother from catching a cold in the hospital due to the bone-chilling winter night.

"Uncle, are you home?" Xu Damao knocked on the door and asked.

"Da Mao, is there something you want to talk to me about?" The voice from behind the door was Yi Zhonghai.

"I heard that grandma was not feeling well, so I came to see how she was doing." Xu Damao pretended to be concerned and showed his care for his elders.

"You've grown up a lot and started to care about others. Xiao'e's efforts must be very fruitful." Yi Zhonghai affirmed Xu Damao with satisfaction.

"Don't worry, it's no big deal. The weather has turned cold suddenly and the doctor just recommends observation. You will get better after a few days of stay." He then informed Grandma Xu Damao about her condition in detail.

"Oh? I see. That's it. I feel relieved now.

"Old people are so old, it's really worrying." Xu Damao seemed a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered up and replied. "That's right, as people get older, their bodies become weaker, and they should take a small cold seriously."

"If you have time, you can go visit the old lady. After all, she is your elder." Yi Zhonghai suggested.

"Don't worry, uncle. I've been very busy lately. I'll definitely go when I have time." Xu Damao began to give a perfunctory answer.

To his surprise, the old lady didn't...

"Then I'll go first." Xu Damao said and left quickly.

An old lady who heard the noise outside asked, "Who came over just now?"

“It’s Xu Damao, he came to inquire about the old lady’s condition.

I never thought he would care so much. "The aunt who answered said nonchalantly.

"Okay, okay, never mind. If he wants to ask, he can ask." The aunt agreed calmly.

"Yeah." Yi Zhonghai responded, his eyes seeming to be filled with thought.

After returning to his backyard, Xu Damao walked straight towards Chen Sheng's house.

“Oh my god, the old lady is actually fine, the doctor said it was just mild frostbite.

Yi Zhonghai said she would be discharged from the hospital in two days. Xu Damao looked a little disappointed.

Mr. Chen was not surprised at all about this, as the old lady had always been in good health.

However, Xu Damao's current look clearly showed extreme disappointment, which showed his dislike for the deaf old lady.

At the Yi family, Yi Zhonghai suddenly had an epiphany, "I'm going out for a while," he said.

"Where are you going? We're going to deliver meals to the hospital later." The aunt said quickly.

“I’m going to the backyard. I’ll be right back.”

A moment later, Yi Zhonghai quickly walked into the Liu family's door.

"Hey, Brother Yi? What bring you here?" Liu Haizhong was sipping tea. As his injury had not healed yet, he could not drink alcohol, so he had to drink some tea and enjoy his leisure time.

"I came to see you, Liu Haizhong, because of course I have something I want to talk to you about." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.

Liu Hai was a little dissatisfied with this title. Ordinary people would respectfully call him Team Leader Liu, but Yi Zhonghai always called him by his name.

"Just tell me what's going on." Liu Haizhong said calmly while drinking tea.

“The deaf-mute old lady in the backyard is sick, and I hope everyone can help take care of her.

Our community has just been rated as a civilized community, and respecting the elderly is a tradition we cannot abandon. "He tried his best to persuade.

"Yi Zhonghai, don't forget why our community was rated as a 'civilized community'.

Do I need to repeat this reminder?" Liu Haizhong said with some dissatisfaction.

"Besides, I remember that the street entrusted the deaf-mute old lady to your care. Now that she is sick, shouldn't you go to the hospital to take care of her? Why did you run to my house? " He spoke more sternly.

"Since you are in trouble, let me give you an idea. You should go find Secretary Wu. She is the manager here, and she will definitely be responsible for helping the elderly when they are in trouble.

My injury is not healed yet, so I won't get involved." Liu Haizhong smiled slyly and suggested immediately.

"Since second brother said so, I have nothing to say. I just mentioned it in passing." When he heard that they wanted to contact Secretary Wu, Yi Zhonghai quickly backed down.

Mr. Chen clearly heard the conversation between the two at his doorstep.

Yi Zhonghai is really tenacious and his evil intentions remain the same as before. He is worthy of being called a moral role model!

Multitasking: wanting to win a good reputation, but also wanting to throw trouble onto others.

He is really an expert at having both!

However, Liu Haizhong's promotion seemed to have brought changes to him. Just a few words made Yi Zhonghai fall into deep thought and he could no longer refute.

As a result, the frustrated Yi Zhonghai had to take a look at the two elder sisters and He Yushui who were preparing to eat, and had to leave the Liu family in shame and return home.

After the meal was ready, the three of them enjoyed it together and then went to the hospital together.

"Zhu Zi, we all have to work during the day. We can't always take leave to take care of grandma in this situation."

Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu discussed taking turns to look after the old lady at different time periods. "How about this, we take turns on duty at night and let to help during the day. If the weather gets better, we can let grandma invite Aunt Yushui to take care of her together." The two reached an agreement on how to divide the work in looking after the old lady.

"Okay, everything is up to you, sir." Sha Zhu nodded and agreed to the plan.

"Then you go back now, I'll stay here today." On the way home, Sha Zhu came to He Yu Shui's room and saw Yu Shui lying on the bed.

"I have discussed with grandpa that from now on you and grandma will go to accompany great-grandmother during the day." Sha Zhu informed He Yushui of the new arrangement.

"What? You want me to take care of that old woman? Are you crazy? Are you her grandson or am I her grandson? She has never been affectionate to me, her grandson, and I don't know her." He Yushui said in surprise after hearing this. He didn't even look at Sha Zhu, but just sneered in response.

"After all, she is the elder in our courtyard. You should be more respectful to her, right?" Faced with He Yushui's answer, Sha Zhu was speechless and could only say these words.

"No wonder others call you Shazhu, you are really simple-minded! I'm going to sleep." As he said that, Yu Shui got off the kang, pushed Shazhu hard, then closed the door and refused to talk to him anymore.

"Dongxu, Dongxu, I can't take it anymore, I feel like I'm going to leave this body! Old Jia, he wants to take me to another world!" Jia Zhang's face turned pale, and she fell weakly on the bed, crying for help in a trembling voice.

Qin Huairu, who was comforting the child in the next room, felt a chill in her heart when she heard the voice. She was worried about Jia Zhang's life or death. The thought of Old Jia taking her away made her skin break out in rashes all over.

She suppressed her fear and hope, quickly entered the room, and when she drew aside the curtain, she found that Jia Zhang had not left yet, so she hurried over and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

When she saw that it was Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang glared and instantly lost consciousness.

At this moment, Qin Huairu was in a panic.

Last night she thought that Jia Zhang might just have a slight cold and didn't take it seriously.
