1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Through the window, Jia Dongxu listened attentively to the conversation between the three old men in the yard.

"Dongxu, what do the three gentlemen say?"

After Qin Huairu cleaned up the dishes, she came over to inquire about the situation.

"Alas! Master didn't say anything, but the Third Master stood on our side, and the Second Master..."

Jia Dongxu shook his head, looking regretful.

If the three uncles agree on the situation today, his mother Jia Zhang might still have a chance.

The key is that Yi Zhonghai never made his position clear, leaving Jia Dongxu lost.

Ever since his father passed away, he has relied on Yi Zhonghai for everything.

Whether in life or work, I am used to following Yi Zhonghai's instructions.

But since last year, Yi Zhonghai lost his position as the eldest uncle because of the affair between his mother Jia Zhang and the Li family. Yi Zhonghai seemed to have become a different person and became much more indifferent to his family's affairs.

Fortunately, through Yi Zhonghai's unremitting efforts, he became the boss of the courtyard again.

Jia Dongxu originally thought that after Yi Zhonghai resumed his position, he would still take care of his family as before.

But judging from his performance today, Yi Zhonghai is still as indifferent to his family's affairs as he was last year.

This made Jia Dongxu feel unsure. Without Yi Zhonghai's help, what should he do in the current situation?

He clenched his fists unconsciously and looked at the three people standing outside.

"Dongxu, what should we do? Shazhu made some harsh remarks today, we can't just sit back and do nothing!"

Qin Huairu had a worried look on her face. Now that her mother-in-law had escaped, Sha Zhu could only vent his anger on the two of them.

The red eyes of Sha Zhu today really scared Qin Huairu.

Fortunately, the aunties in the courtyard stopped him, otherwise Dongxu would definitely be beaten up by Shazhu.

I just managed to avoid it this time, but what about next time?

She and Jia Dongxu can't just rely on luck every time!

What will they do if no one stops Sha Zhu next time?

"Dongxu, how about we go to the hospital to see Chen Lanxiang?"

Qin Huairu thought about it and felt that if they wanted to solve the problem, they must first know what happened to Chen Lanxiang.

Now that the incident has happened and Sha Zhu is unwilling to let it go, it would be better to start with Chen Lanxiang.

"Go to the hospital? Do you have money? If you go to the hospital and admit that it was our mother who did it, do you have the money to pay for the hospitalization and treatment?"

In fact, Jia Dongxu had also thought about this problem. The key was that he had no money, and going there would make the Jia family even more passive.

Qin Huairu's face turned pale when she heard this. Last year, Jia Zhang had a quarrel with Bang Geng and the debts they owed had not yet been paid off.

Now Jia Zhang has caused trouble again, what should they do this time?

Continue to borrow?

The key point is that everyone is in difficulty this year, and there is no place to borrow money. The Jia family is once again in a desperate situation.

"Dongxu, what do you think we should do? Are we just going to sit there and wait and do nothing?"

Jia Dongxu continued to look outside, frowning and saying, "Since our mother has escaped, we can only put it off for one day at a time!"

He still had a glimmer of hope, thinking that as long as his mother didn't show up, Sha Zhu couldn't do anything to them.

"Is this okay? I'm afraid if we don't do anything, Sha Zhu will get even more angry at us."

Qin Huairu was still very worried. After all, Jia Zhang had been at fault in this matter, and if she kept dragging it out, the situation would probably get worse and worse.

"It has to be done, we have no money, Master..."

Jia Dongxu looked outside, paused and continued, "Master, I'm afraid you won't lend it to us again!"

Thinking of this, he became even more irritated.

In the yard, the three uncles, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, looked solemn.

They discussed the matter of Jia Zhang overthrowing Chen Lanxiang over and over again, but they still couldn't come up with a satisfactory solution.

As for Yan Bugui's point of view, Yi Zhonghai did not agree with it for fear of being implicated.

After all, that set of views was too far-fetched. Yi Zhonghai had just regained his status as a rich old man, and he didn't want to get involved in this mess.

He said in a deep voice: "I think what Third Uncle said is not right. How about this, after get off work tomorrow, let's go to the hospital to see Chen Lanxiang, and then decide how to deal with it."

Liu Haizhong looked helpless. He smoothed his thin hair and nodded slightly.

"Okay, we have to go to work during the day, so we can only go there at night!"

Yan Bugui was unwilling to accept this. He did not expect that Yi Zhonghai, who had always favored the Jia family, would not support him this time.

It shouldn't be like this. What went wrong?

Now that Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong both disagree with his opinion, he can only compromise.

"Okay! Since you all don't agree with my point of view, we can only wait and see what happens before deciding what to do next!"

His plan failed and he felt quite disappointed.

Finally, the three uncles dispersed and went back to their homes.

When Yi Zhonghai returned home, an old lady came up to him and asked with concern, "Old Yi, how did the discussion go? What do the other two uncles think of this?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said slowly: "The Third Uncle did come up with an idea, saying that Sha Zhu should be more restrained in the future and not come up with the idea of ​​sharing, but I didn't agree."

Upon hearing this, the auntie immediately said angrily: "Yan Bugui's words are too much. Shazhu himself is reluctant to eat and spend money, so what's wrong with wanting his pregnant wife to eat better? How does this bother her?"

The old lady was filled with righteous indignation, and her face was full of dissatisfaction with Yan Bugui.

"Besides, every time Shazhu got something good, he never forgot the old lady in the backyard. As for the others, they have their own hands and feet, why would they covet other people's things?"

This lady is actually quite upright.

If she had not been married to Yi Zhonghai for so many years and had not been able to give birth to a child for him, she would not feel guilty and would not listen to Yi Zhonghai in everything.

Seeing his wife so excited, Yi Zhonghai said, "Say less. I have just resumed my status as an uncle. I'd better be careful in the courtyard and don't let outsiders hear me."

The lady snorted coldly: "I'm not afraid even if I hear it. Yan Bugui is too calculating. He has no bottom line in his calculations."

Yi Zhonghai did not continue to discuss this issue, but silently began to wash up and then went to bed.

The same scene was also happening at Liu Haizhong's house.

As soon as Liu Haizhong entered the room, the second aunt came over to ask the result.

Liu Haizhong expressed Yan Bugui's thoughts with a pout, and he was very disdainful of Yan Bugui's views.

"Yan Bugui told Sha Zhu's family to be more restrained and share good things with the people in the courtyard in the future! I think he just wants to get Sha Zhu's things!"

Second Aunt couldn't stand it anymore. In this courtyard, apart from the Li family who moved away, the ones who lived better were Sha Zhu's family, the Yi family, and his family.

Yi Zhonghai and his wife are relatively frugal. They don't spend much on food and drink on weekdays, except during the Chinese New Year and other festivals when they do something different. They live a relatively low-key life.

But his family is different. She has to add some extra hair to her bangs from time to time.

For example, scramble some eggs and fry some peanuts.

If we follow what Yan Bugui said, does that mean both his family and the Yi family should take out something to share?

"Yan Bugui is such a piece of shit, he's always trying to scheme against others!"

In a courtyard, who would care so much about other people's affairs if it doesn't affect their own interests?

The second aunt was so indignant because she was simply afraid that her own interests would be affected!
