The deaf old lady knocked the ground with her cane and said firmly: "He Yuzhu, don't talk nonsense here, just call the police! What I want to say is that no matter what the reason is, you can't hit people casually!"
He Yuzhu immediately responded, "Oh, you are right, old lady. Let's go and call the police right away! Otherwise, how can I get them to compensate me for my losses?"
"Jia Dongxu is still in the cell waiting for you, his mother, to go with him! Jia Zhangshi."
"This is a great opportunity for them to reunite mother and son!"
Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Jia Zhang quickly said to the deaf old lady: "No! You must not call the police! Old lady, this is our family's business! Don't get involved!"
Jia Zhang knew that she still had some furniture from He Yuzhu's family in her house. Once the police came to investigate, how would she explain that these things from He Yuzhu's family had entered her house? If she was really caught and imprisoned for theft, it would be much more miserable than the minor injuries she had now.
Because Jia Zhang also knew the lessons the three uncles had received in the prison, especially since Qin Huairu was pregnant, she could not take the risk of letting her daughter-in-law be arrested by the police.
When she thought about the possibility of Qin Huairu having a miscarriage or other accidents if she was caught by the police, she could not accept this outcome.
No matter what, Qin Huairu must not suffer any accident.
When the deaf old lady proposed to call the police, Yi Zhonghai also hurriedly dissuaded her: "Old lady, Yan Bugui, please stop stirring up trouble! This is a matter within our courtyard, and it is best to solve it privately. Frequent calls to the police will only damage the reputation of our courtyard."
Yan Bugui and the deaf old lady understood the cooperation between Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi, and they also knew that the Jia family was indeed in the wrong, so they kept silent.
Seeing that Jia Zhang was unwilling to call the police, the neighbors watching nearby also gave up the idea of calling the police.
After all, everyone thinks that what Jia Zhang did was indeed wrong and it really brought shame to our No. 95 Siheyuan. It would be fine if we didn't call the police, but we couldn't let our courtyard's reputation be ruined.
They had already made their own judgment on the matter, and everyone in this era looked down upon immoral behavior.
When the surroundings quieted down, Yi Zhonghai turned to He Yuzhu and said, "He Yuzhu, there's no need to call the police. After all, the Jia family just borrowed your furniture and kitchenware. How about this, I help you move these things back to your house, what do you think?"
He chose his words carefully, deftly avoiding direct demands for repayment.
Having just slapped a few people, and now seeing Jia Zhang compromise and bow her head, He Yuzhu's anger has been relieved: "If Jia Zhang had solved the problem like Yi Zhonghai did, you wouldn't have ended up having me teach you a lesson! But since you are willing to solve it privately, I can't appear to be unkind."
As he spoke, he held up two fingers and said, "First, the furniture and kitchen utensils that were moved to your house must be moved back in the same condition. Second, I will charge you fifty dollars for borrowing my furniture and kitchen utensils during this period. Don't bargain with me!"
When Jia Zhang heard that He Yuzhu's furniture and kitchenware cost fifty yuan, she immediately said, "We can return everything, but I really don't have fifty yuan!"
He Yuzhu snorted coldly and said nonchalantly: "No money? Then call the police!"
Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai quickly comforted He Yuzhu: "He Yuzhu, calm down, I will persuade Jia Zhang."
Then Yi Zhonghai pulled Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu aside for a talk. He said sternly, "Jia Zhang, do you want to send the pregnant Qin Huairu to the police station? If this matter really goes to the police station, do you dare to say that it has nothing to do with Qin Huairu and you will bear all the responsibility yourself? Think about what your son Jia Dongxu went through in the police cell. You should know it, right? Now your daughter-in-law Qin Huairu is still pregnant. You have to think about her!"
After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Jia Zhang suddenly realized that Qin Huairu was still carrying the blood of their Jia family in her belly, so she couldn't go to the police station. But asking her to pay the fifty yuan was absolutely impossible.
Seeing Yi Zhonghai, the victim, here, Jia Zhang immediately had an idea. She thought for a moment and said, "Yi Zhonghai, our Jia family really can't afford the money. Your salary is quite high. How about you lend us fifty yuan to pay He Yuzhu?"
"In my opinion, even though you are no longer the mediator of our courtyard, I still regard you as the boss of our courtyard in my heart! If you really don't lend us money, then He Yuzhu, go to the police and arrest us! Let our whole family stay in jail!"
Yi Zhonghai was filled with disgust and resentment at Jia Zhang's attitude. She said she wanted to borrow money, but the implication was that she wanted Yi Zhonghai to pay the money back? Why should he pay back the money he borrowed with his own ability?
Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was still hesitating, Qin Huairu immediately covered her stomach and made an expression as if she was in great pain.
Sure enough, Yi Zhonghai saw this, stole a glance at Qin Huairu's belly, and finally gritted his teeth and said to He Yuzhu: He Yuzhu, let's do as you say! I will help you move the furniture and kitchen utensils back now. The compensation of 50 yuan is not affordable for Jia Zhangshi, so I will help them pay first! "
In order to prevent the Jia family from further exploiting him, Yi Zhonghai had to make his position clear. He shouted in front of all the residents of the courtyard: "I will lend this fifty yuan to the Jia family first. When Qin Huairu gets her salary, she must pay me back part of it every month!"
After saying that, he took out fifty yuan from his pocket and put it in He Yuzhu's hand.
He Yuzhu smiled and put away the fifty yuan. He then sternly taught Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu a lesson: "This time I am teaching you a lesson. Don't think you can just come into my house and take my things at will! Remember, even though I, He Yuzhu, don't live here, I will never allow anyone to take my things at will! Anyone who wants to cross my bottom line again should be prepared to accept my revenge!"
Seeing that He Yuzhu was still scolding them arrogantly, Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu and others felt a little embarrassed, but they were unable to compete with He Yuzhu now, so they could only bow their heads and remain silent.
This situation was somewhat embarrassing for Yi Hai, so he quickly changed the topic to ease the atmosphere: "He Yuzhu, I will help you move the furniture and kitchenware back now."
He Yuzhu nodded and began to point out the furniture and kitchen utensils that Jia Zhang had taken back one by one.
Seeing that the matter was almost over, the people watching in the courtyard left one after another, but they were still thinking about He Yuzhu's unreasonable look in their hearts.
